Hi, is it planned a procedure for a "flash to factory default image" of the phone? Like flasher for N900, sliding out the keyboard, powering on the phone pressing "U" key while connected to the usb cable, sending the phone into "upgrde mode".

We're not able to provide flashing images for the Jolla due to 3rd party restrictions. We provide as of 1.0.2.5 a recovery menu that allows you to factory reset in difficult situations. This recovery menu will improve further in later updates.
For technical details, view my post on TMO.
Unfortunately Apple iPhone features like locked down code is not one Jolla should seek to emulate.
Code writers prefer a FOSS system and Jolla needs to lean on Qualcomm to open up.

"enablers to allow factory reset operation to reset the OS to the latest available public version instead of the age old factory image provide an API to check the system update size"
