The other half gets newly recognized inside my pocket

I have the Jolla Phone in my front pocket and occasionally shift my weight when I sit. For some reason this will bring the NFC tag inside the other half away or closer to the sensor. The phone then vibrates and upon unlocking it will show the notication about TOH attachment.

The vibration can be disabled in /usr/share/ngfd/events.d/toh_attach.ini and I will to that shortly. I am not sure whether I can disable the notification and whether that would break anything later on.

Is this common after a few months of carrying the phone inside the pocket of pants? Is there anything I can do about that?

I have the same effect when I put my Jolla on a metal surface. My ambience will be replaced by the Snow White one.

This is definitely strange. Regardless of your specific issue, the phone shouldn't react when the same TOH is detected. Or at least my phone (running 1.1.7.27) doesn't do it :)

Do you have the ambiance associated to the TOH installed? If you remove the TOH and re-attach it, does the phone react?

No, in this case it doesn't react.

Ok. I wonder why tohd reacts this way then. Unfortunately it's closed source :/

It always asks me to download Snow White. It always does that when I take TOH off and put it back again.
