[How-to] Make Aqua Fish to think it's Jolla C [not modem]
asked 2016-10-20 16:04:36 +0300
This post is a wiki. Anyone with karma >75 is welcome to improve it.
Easiest way is to reflash phone with firmware: https://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=100528
These changes will do:
- Allow Early Access updates at same time with Jolla C
- Remove all intex stuff including activation SMS, Gaana, Aptoide
These changes will not do:
- Jolla C LTE bands (this is hardware limitations)
- Preinstalled android will remain
Changes persists after update, you will receive same updates as for Jolla C
Changes does not persists after factory reset, because phone factory backup still contains intex data
Take note that this script won't work with newer Versions of SFOS (>2.2.1). The script works flawless with the 'factory reset' version of the Intex Aquafish (2.0.2.45 (Aurajoki)).
Simple steps:
- Open https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CODeRUS/aqua-fish-to-jolla-c/master/script.sh to check what script will do
- You need Developer Mode on
- You need to open your terminal or login to remote shell
Next commands you should execute in terminal
devel-su bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CODeRUS/aqua-fish-to-jolla-c/master/script.sh)Read prompt carefully, it will ask you to do actions at least 3 times.
- Profit!
Part 2: replacing intex factory image with modified Jolla C factory image
After doing these commands your changes will survive factory reset.
- Download This Factory Image for Aqua Fish
- Unpack and copy to sdcard
- Boot in recovery mode, enter shell
Execute:
mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /mnt dd if=/mnt/mmcblk0p21.raw of=/dev/mmcblk0p21Wait until image will be copied to partition, no output will be produced. Operation is finished when the copying is complete.
- Back to recovery menu and perform factory reset.

How to revert if something failed?
Magog ( 2016-10-20 16:43:29 +0300 )edit@Magog how about that in reverse? But you need the feature-intex file on device iirc as you won't be able to download it again afterwards - @coderus you might want to add that as a security measure, load the required files for reverting to intex ahead of actually removing them.
chemist ( 2016-10-20 16:47:16 +0300 )editAdded info about revert :)
coderus ( 2016-10-20 17:09:13 +0300 )editThanks for your precious help. I will try it, but first will I get OTA/updates? If I change my Intex to Jolla C, will I get EA updates (on J1 I am EA)?
magullo ( 2016-10-20 17:23:57 +0300 )editWhat does "make Aqua Fish to think it's Jolla C" mean? Does it change the LTE bands? Does it disable the SMS to Intex? Does it remove Gaanaa? Does it persist after an update or reset?
SagaciousT ( 2016-10-20 17:38:38 +0300 )editthis is not for modem
this will make your device to be detected as Jolla C and receive Early Access devices as well
this will remove all Intex stuff including sms activation, intex, ambiences and i.e.
you will receive updates as for jolla c, not for aqua fish
after factory reset you will have factory content including intex stuff back
coderus ( 2016-10-20 18:26:29 +0300 )editthis will do: Allow Early Access updates at same time with Jolla C Remove all intex stuff including activation SMS, Gaana, Aptoide

I looked at package list, after a pkcon refresh, but could not find that package anywhere. Is it a 2.0.4 package? I executed the procedure on a stable intex, 2.0.2. Thanks
magullo ( 2016-10-21 10:16:46 +0300 )editmake sure you have stable internet and run script again

brotholo ( 2016-10-21 12:46:44 +0300 )edit@coderus I will try again, but it seems there's a problem with package list. I am factory resetting my Intex now.
magullo ( 2016-10-21 12:53:33 +0300 )editwhy do so? it will be more helpful for others to properly solve your problem :)
coderus ( 2016-10-21 13:03:45 +0300 )edit@coderus, I know, but I had to since the phone was not performing fine. I will try again and report back.
magullo ( 2016-10-21 13:12:47 +0300 )editstill the same output, and searching for that package gives no result. after rebooring my intex suggested the EA update, and everything seems fine so far.
After update:
returns Installed. As I supposed, it is a 2.0.4 package.
magullo ( 2016-10-21 15:32:02 +0300 )editthanks for feedback, removed this package from script for now.

Bartvv ( 2016-10-21 16:12:44 +0300 )edit@coderus splash-img-l500d-jolla is also missing in 2.0.2 repository, and it gives the same error. After upgrading, of course, splash screen is correct (no more Intex logo) and package is there.
magullo ( 2016-10-21 17:25:06 +0300 )editafter entering the code, I got no response. after 5 seconds it shows nemo@sailfish and nothing! Is it normal?
soheilbalini ( 2016-10-27 14:06:29 +0300 )editHi
Is there any chance that why I can not install patchmanager after this modification? So far I didn't test too many things, but before this mod there wasn't problem with these. I am writing down my whole process and the errors as well.
First I did a factory reset on my Aqua Fish, then I installed this mod as you described, after many Y(es) there wasn't problem with the install, everything installed fine (weird, but you wrote, the Aptoid will be removed, but it stayed for me, whatever...) . Then I installed the updates, it has been 2.0.4.14 Early Access. Then I installed Warehouse and tried to install "patchmanager for Jolla settings" (what I used always before) , and I couldn't. I get this error message: Transaction /413_dbdecddd Status@ repo-not-available Extra details: File './core/armv7hl/groff-1.18.1.4-1.1.16.armv7hl.rpm' not found on medium 'https://releases.jolla.com/releases/2.0.4.14/jolla/armv7hl/'
Maybe not this the right forum for this error, but the patchmanager always worked for me so far until this mod so I thought maybe could be something between these reasons (and I wrote also in openrepos but no answer so far)...
Thank you!
