Hi there,

I've just installed the OS upgrade, now android apps won't start anymore (loading for about 10 seconds, then disappear). I've noticed that, if Android-support enabled, there is a process "alien_init" alway actives, consuming about 30% cpu all the time. I tried to disable, reenable android-support, also not starting it at boot: no change. Also I have no on-screen-keyboard in browser visible anymore. It does work in terminal. Also settings/input-methods doesn't start.

The update went through without errors. I tried 3 shutdowns/reboots, still the same errors. I had bluetooth enabled during the update, and paired to an audio-device.. I don't know if that matters. I've removed all paired devices now.

Please help!

edit: I also have no sound, and can't do a call. I have pulse-audio problems: "journalctl | grep pulse": Jun 10 15:29:27 Sailfish start_alien.sh[3855]: /system/genv/bin/alien_audio_server: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libpulse-simple.so.0: file too short this line appears tens or hundred times..

Best regards, lazart

"I've just installed the OS upgrade"

Ehh, which one? 2.1.4 is the previous, 2.2.0 is the newest release.

after the upgrade (which I assume didn't install completely), I read "2.1.4.14" in settings. I now noticed, that the update is still shown as a new upgrade in settings, but when I tried to install it again, the device reboots and shows "update can't be installed.. please reboot". Is there a way to re-download the upgrade?

I'm trying to upgrade via remote-CLI. With "version --dup" I get: Error: File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium 'https://store-repository.jolla.com/releases/2.2.0.29/aliendalvik//?credentials=store'

after diabling a repo, I get "Fatal error: File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium 'https://store-repository.jolla.com/releases/2.1.4.0/jolla-hw/adaptation-qualcomm-sbj/armv7hl/?credentials=store'" ..another broken repo, whatever.. This is so messed up, I'll do a factory reset.. I have a recent backup..

Have you tried:

devel-su
ssu re 2.2.0.29
version --dup

thank you, yes. The same errors.. I did a factory reset (twice) with the menu - I got the tutorial and the look of the factory OS, but my apps (at least it's icons) and the written errors above were still there! I only got a real facotry reset by the recovery menu via usb-connection. Totally weird! But I'm happy, that the flash memory isn't damaged :)

Very weird indeed. I would also suggest to try

btrfs-balancer allocation

and

btrfs-balancer balance

as maybe this was caused by problems with the filesystem. Make sure to connect your device to a charger when you do the 'balance' operation, as it can take a long time.
