Hi there,

I couldn't upgrade SailfishOS 2.0.5.6 (Haapajoki) for a while (see here https://together.jolla.com/question/159460/jolla-store-almost-empty-and-no-installed-apps-shown/), so I made a backup to the sd-card and then a factory reset. Then I could upgrade directly to 2.1.0.11 (Iijoki). Now the backup tool won't show my backup stored on the sd-card, it's there and looks like this:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 nemo nemo 128M Sep 1 17:23 sailfish_backup_2017-09-01T15-22-23Z.tar

If the backup is not compatible to 2.1.0.11, is there a way to manually restore the content of the tar file? Alternativly, is there a way to upgrade from factory version to 2.0.5.6?

Device: Intex Aquafish
