Hi guys. that's what I did in last 48 hours on my Jolla C:

updating the device from latest os to 2.1.1.23 via update manager = boot loop
reseting device with usb connection
installing update via update manager = stuck + very slow connection
installing update via terminal from 2.0.2.43 to 2.1.1.23 = full update = boot loop
resetting device with USB connection
installing update via terminal = device only updates two packages and then says: this process will break your device
lot's of investigation and still no luck

now I'm stuck with an old OS & an update manager that has the "problem with store" and a terminal update process that eider fails or make the device enters boot loop. Any Idea?! :/ :/ :/

++ I can't believe or tutorial app has no skip button after all these years!

Having similar problems with my Jolla tablet (cant update right now, try again later/critical problem with registry). Have now given up - and left the message to constantly remind me that there is a new software update available

We have found an issue in the OS update repositories such that installing updates from 2.0.5 (or earlier) to 2.1.1.23 tend to fail. This is being fixed in the update servers. Updates 2.1.0.11 => 2.1.1.23 should work ok. Note that 2.1.1 is a big update due to some vulnerability fixes in the libraries. Because of this the download phase can take tens of minutes. Apologies for the inconvenience caused.
-There will be another release candidate 2.1.1.24 for early access subscribers one of these days.

tnx for the clarification. leaving early access to get the old updates did the trick for me. nice to know that its being noticed.

Hi @jovirkku I reopened the question as on my JP01 I did a factory reset and now I'm upgrading to the latest SFOS release. I'm now at Saimaa, 2.0.0.10 and the sailfish update wants me to update to 2.1.1.26 whereas from your answer I'd expect to go to 2.0.5 first and then update to 2.1.1.26 but this isn't happening.

Can you please check?

c.la ( 2017-08-29 23:02:58 +0300 )edit

@c.la: 2.0.0.10 is the latest so-called stop release. Therefore the update path should be from 2.0.0 directly to 2.1.1. However, we have noticed that an update of JollaC from 2.0.0 may not work to 2.1.1 directly but could require installing 2.0.5 as an intermediate step. Forcing a device to 2.0.5 requires using the command line for the update. JP01 should update from 2.0.0 to 2.1.1.

@jovirkku Thank you for the explanation, I'll probably manually update to 2.0.4 first as my last backup was taken at that version.

Or is it safe to restore a 2.0.4 backup from SFOS v. 2.1.1?

c.la ( 2017-08-30 12:25:53 +0300 )edit

@c.la: There were no major architectural changes to backup/restore in 2.0.5, 2.1.0 and 2.1.1, only some bug fixes improving robustness. From this respect we can expect that restoring a backup to 2.1.1 made with 2.0.4 should work. However, if you have the time and want to play safe then why not visit 2.0.4 and restore there.

I had the exact same situation and it's because we are on early access program. The official solution is to first opt out of EA program and then fix your device with the help of Recovery Mode. The problem is that it will take days to opt out of EA program, so I made my own "opt out" solution. A little cumbersome but it works, and this is how...

First upgrade from 2.0.2.43 to SFOS 2.0.2.51

ssu re 2.0.2.51
version --dup

Then repeat version --dup to SFOS 2.0.4.14.

When you're on 2.0.4.14, you should be able to get a normal update to 2.1.0.11 and finally 2.1.1.23.

There might be an easyer solution that I didn't think of, but at least this worked for me.

If the problem is EA then we should be able to update with a new user (of course after a hard reset)! interesting!

soheilbalini ( 2017-07-27 09:28:35 +0300 )edit

I guess changing user without even doing the hard reset did the job! I'm now seeing Ijoki as the first update. you helped A LOT.

Great! Good to know, if it happens again.

Hi. Try forced update for terminal..

1) Factory reset
2) Open developed mode
3) write that command:

devel-su
ssu re 2.1.1.23
version --dup

So finish update write reboot
Try and say ews.. Bye

The Resetting device have an option remove looping. Can U try?
Other option U can copy system download here: https://together.jolla.com/question/148893/how-to-make-aqua-fish-to-think-its-jolla-c-not-modem/
Do the 2nd part... PS: I know you user Jolla C but have a system download and you can copy to SD and restore to your device.
Bye

Rafaelvlmendes ( 2017-07-27 07:46:38 +0300 )edit

the problem is not looping. the problem is updating. I can remove the loop, pass the loop but new release is uninstallable for me. I think it's skipping some packages for some reason! I don't know why
