I really like the background pictures used in the "Software update available" screens and I was wondering if there is a way to get the pictures used?

I was going to ask that too. I miss some of the old ones, most of those images were really beautiful.

Not sure about obtaining images from previous updates, but if you connect to the phone using developer mode, you should be able to find the background image for the current release in this folder on the device:

/home/nemo/.cache/store-client/big-images

All the files in this folder are in PNG format, one of them should be a 540x270 copy of the current release picture. If you have an update available, poke around inside /home/nemo/.cache/store-client/os-info; the third line should contain the URL to the current picture. Below example is for the update that came out today:

[General]
codeName=Tahkalampi
cover=https://d1gmizwe9eo718.cloudfront.net/099b1996198547a786796a8d8c0d64d8/743d6a18530ea2c5762ede304c99cd90.png

The current OS picture (as visible in Settings) can be found at:

Thank you very much for this! It worked perfectly for this update! I will check for older versions' image urls when I get my device back from Jolla; it's in to fix a loudspeaker HW problem. Good timing, picked up when the update came out :P
