I was able to download the latest release (1.0.7.16 - Saapunki). When I start the upgrade process I see for a moment the progress bar but after a few seconds the phone just reboots. How do I upgrade my Jolla phone?

I have 7.84GB (45%) free space in root storage on my phone yet I am facing the same problem when trying to update to 1.1.7.25, any suggestions on resolving this?

I found the answer myself. All I needed to do was to free more space on the internal phone partition (Android storage, nemo home dir but not SD card). The upgrade run fine with around 1 GB free disk space. Before it failed with around 400 MB free disk space. Maybe this answer is useful for other people having the same problem.
