I installed prey last week on a Jolla phone, recently cleared and reinstalled. The installation of Prey worked like a charm.

But today it appeared Prey did not see my Jolla for 4 days. I opened the terminal, and entered "prey". Unknown command. So I did the installation process again (and it worked like a charm again). But strange it is...

yes, if it was activated before update on 2.0.2.xx or 2.03.xx
On my Jolla 1 it also working on 2.0.3.14

but if you try to install it on fresh device with 2.0.2 or 2.0.3 it will fail.

I figured a workaround out. The issue is really not with Prey, but with Jolla lsb_release files are not correct

specifically, we need to change the file

Code:
/etc/hw-release
by adding this line to the top of the file

Code:
Mer release 02011 Jolla
This will allow to setup the account and activate it on Prey servers
