If I choose to create a backup before system upgrade on the system upgrade page it constantly fails. The backup screen appears but stays black besides the headline (I waited for about 8 hours but it did not proceed). That happened on both devices, Jolla and Jolla C. Creating the backup from the backup page works flawlessly. The backup file on Jolla C has 952.3 MB but the one on the first Jolla has only 66.4 MB.

This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >75 is welcome to improve it.
My solution: 1) Deleted all old backups, that means all files inside /home/nemo/.vault with file manager (make hidden files visible before) 2) insert an empty but formatted SD card 3) do a fresh backup
The problem seems to be a) the conversion of the old backup to thew new type - does not work b) backup app needs /recommends an empty memory card (mine was 80% full)
Update & backup worked like charm then.

I had the exact same error on Jolla C. On J1 I skipped the backup from upgrade page.
eson ( 2016-09-01 09:18:52 +0200 )editI skipped the backup after a few attempts on both devices just to verify that it's a constant bug. The devices were totally stuck on the backup screen so I had to reboot.

Upp15 ( 2016-09-01 11:36:35 +0200 )editI can't reproduce it right now because both upgrades are done, but I'm quite shure I woke up the Jolla C this morning and after the lock screen it took me straight back to the stuck backup. Swiping to get back to app overview did not work neither top swipe to close application. (Edit: No idea if that matters at all to fix the bug.)
