Hey,

I just got a new Jolla device. I've been playing around and after 2 hours, it's become unusable.

When I touch the "home" screen (the one with 4 icons at the bottom), it simply crashes and restarts.

If I lock the screen and unlock it, then, I am on the "lock screen" (the one with the time and notification icons.) In that screen, i can do everything (scroll, show the pulley menu and all).

If I start the settings manager, it shows the first screen but will close as soon as I touch anything on it (like on the "home" screen)

I can't do anything with the phone now, All I have installed is the File browser and the android compatibility app. It is also in Developper mode.

Is there anything I can do beside already sending it back ?

Have you seen this and that? Maybe those are related?

By the way, I made a video showing the behaviour of the Jolla : http://youtu.be/rCVJK12h1kY

Hi dude!

Sad to hear that from your Jolla experience. Which version of the OS are you using? Have you upgraded it during the 2 hours it worked fine? Did you install an app and all the problems started after that? The main idea that comes to me to fix this problem is a factory reset, but that appears in the settings menu, and you say that it doesn't work...Can you try one more time to perform this action?

If not try this solution: How to bricked Jolla phone revival

I am not sure about the version and cannot access it (But I know it is not the latest). I did not perform the upgrade (as I don't have a wifi access, just 3G) I really can't access factory reset. I'll try the second solution then.

Thanks for your answer, I'll let you know :)

Well, I had to use the recovery, pretty handy :) Now it works again. Thanks !
