Two of my three J1's updated smoothly. Today I noticed that the one I use for listening music (original media player) did not find anything to play. I have around 12 GB of flac-files on 200GB sdcard (ext4). Checked with file browser, the files were there. Tried even opening one with the file browser and it woke the media player. So far so good. But it was plying list of one song. So I thought that indexing was issue and wiped the index with the auxiliary settings application. Didn't work. rebooted phone, no help. Reinstalled player. No change. A new reboot and then presto, player found my music files.

Now there is one J1 to go, and Xperia X. I have negletted the Sony, but I guess I need to spend some quality time with it too.

@olympus, this seems to be worth being filed as a bug report on TJC, doesn't it?
(Without indicating this, Jolla probably won't be aware of it and fix it.)

You play them from playlist, right?
If yes, you need to modify the playlist, because the sdcard path changed, the old playlist still in old path

This was driving me insane. Now it's pretty nice.
That is enough to make me update immediately.

No, I usually just choose "All files" and random play. But that was kind of hard to do since no music was available. But now it works.

I wish I were that cool. My "playlist" is always an album. Which means one directory ("folder" in Microsoft-speak). Which means media players that insist on tags and cannot play by the directory structure (such as the stock Jolla's, unless that has changed in recent years, I never bothered to try after the initial disappointment) are totally useless to me

Indeed, according to Jolla, and as seen on my Jolla 1 (waiting for the final release to upgrade my daily Xperia), they've switched away from their mout-sd.sh script and now use udiskctl (like almost every other GNU/Linux distro) to mount the SD card.

The SD cards aren't mounted into /media/sdcard/{UUID}, but in /run/media/{USERNAME=nemo}/{LABEL}. (There's only one loged-in user on sailfish, so the USERNAME part is always going to be nemo).

There's a symlink, so scripts search inside /media aren't completely lost.

But the path name has definitely changed (UUID vs LABEL, anyway), so Jolla tells you (and I can confirm) that you need to set the output path again in "Settings -> Apps -> Camera".

Probably that other apps will need new paths, too.
(Almost sure that OSM Scout server will need).

That seems weird. Have you ruled out partition corrurption ? What filesystem are your using on the card? (Fat32, exFAT + FUSE, ext4, btrfs/f2fs/udf ?)

For the record, it is not technically possible for Alien Dalvik to be anything more recent than Android 4.4 KitKat
As the name indicates, Myriad's software is an implementation of the Dalvik JIT-based JVM-like engine. That on is used up to 4.4 KitKat.
Starting from Android 5 Lollipop, Google switched to a completely different approach, "Android Runtime", with is AOT (Ahead of time: when a app is installed, the Java-like bytecode is compiled to native code) instead of using the JITting engine.

If Jolla wants Adroid 5+ in Sailfish OS 3, they'll probably switch to something else.
(Does Myriad have ART ? Has andbox progressed to the point that it can work nicely with most applications on Sailfish OS ?)

Any success while experimenting with it ?
