Hi!

I updated my Xperia 10 to SFOS 3.3.0.14. My original problem is shown here: https://together.jolla.com/question/222221/release-notes-330-rokua/?answer=224286#post-id-224286

I tried two ways to get rw-rights to the WhatsApp folder but now I can't even delete whole folder. Via command line everything seemed to be ok (no errors or something).

I can handle that I can't see my old messages but now I can't create backup file at all. Error: "Unable to back up messages".

Also, I can't send pictures. Error: "Sorry, this media file doesn't exist on your internal storage"

Note: True, all media (e.g. pictures are in SD card). After update I can SEE all pictures with Whatsapp but I can't send.

and download any pictures from messages. Error: "The download was unable to complete. Please try again later."

No changes after restart. Any ideas, what is wrong?

This helped me: 1) devel-su and the password. 2) cd /home/nemo/android_storage/ 3) chown -R media_rw.media_rw WhatsApp 4) chmod -R ug+rw WhatsApp
