Dear users,

We left for our summer break with the thought of migrating SailfishOS to Qt5.2 and bringing it to your devices during September. While we did manage to successfully upgrade to Qt5.2, it took quite long to stabilize the software stack. Now, after 13 internal release candidates, we believe that it is best to make this available to our developers and bleeding edge users instead of delaying it further.

Uitukka is an opt-in release, meaning you will not receive update notifications unless you willingly sign up to receive this OS update. Please read the following carefully before signing up, the instructions on how to sign up are available towards the end.

Why should you be careful to sign up?

  • You will not be able to rollback to update8 should you wish to.
  • The system's handling of out of memory (OOM) conditions still needs some work, meaning
    • The device can behave sluggishly when it is low in memory. This can cause annoyances during heavy daily use of your Jolla. A reboot makes things better, but we understand that this is not something our users want to do frequently.
    • Common tasks like answering calls, opening notifications, multitasking, switching between apps etc can take tens or hundreds of milliseconds to operate in low memory conditions. For a smooth operation, the OS needs to makes sure that the memory is never critically low.
    • Communication between Sailfish apps and background processes (daemons) can take longer when the system is swapping in low memory conditions. This is experienced as stutter in the UI and in extreme cases, it can freeze the UI completely.

Why should you consider signing up for this update?

  • This update does bring in many new features and a lot of bug fixes across the OS as indicated in the next section despite the afore mentioned performance issues in low memory conditions.
  • Developers will largely benefit from upgrading to this version as it will provide a chance to test their apps against Qt5.2 and the dialog changes communicated earlier. Corresponding SDK release will be available early next week.

Therefore, if you are a developer or a user willing to forgive performance hiccups, we welcome you to sign up for this opt-in release by sending an email to update9-opt-in@jolla.com. Make sure that the From-Address used is the one matching your Jolla account. The content of the email does not matter. After processing your email (which may take about 20 minutes), you should get an update notification and be able to install the release like any regular update.

What's new

  • New overlays for Maps - satellite, car (daylight mode), transit (public transport) and night mode
  • Quicker access to favorite places on Maps
  • Search for media, albums and artists in Media player via 'Search' pulley menu item in the different views
  • Finer control to enable/disable AGPS assistance for obtaining location fix via 'Faster position lock' option in Settings > System > Location
  • Automatically save draft emails on page exit
  • Accounts framework has undergone a fair amount of unification, making the account setup process more user friendly
    • Fruux, Memotoo and Yahoo! now available as separate provider accounts in the 'Add accounts' page.
  • Copy unsaved numbers from call log via context menu
  • CardDAV support for Fruux and Memotoo service providers (experimental)
  • Browser engine updated to Gecko 31 to improve compatibility with various web sites and improving scrolling performance
  • Kazakh keyboard layout now available
  • Perform general maintenance tasks such as cleaning up backup storage to free space, restarting network connectivity, android runtime etc via Sailfish Utilities app available in Jolla Store.
    • Once installed, you can access it via Settings > System > Utilities

UI interaction changes

  • Hierarchy indicator at the top left corner of the view replaced by a single indicator trailing off the edge of the view
  • In accounts settings view, changes made are immediately saved.
    • Previously, an explicit user action (pressing 'Accept') was required.
  • App dialogs are now visually separated from normal app pages by having accept and cancel buttons from the page area to a persistent header

Fetch the update

This is a huge update given that this brings in Qt5.2. Ensure that you have enough disk space before attempting to upgrade. More information on the possible upgrade issues and workarounds is available in the known issues section below.

Pre-requisites

  • Working Jolla account configured on your device
  • Charger connected
  • Device connected to WLAN or mobile data network
  • You have atleast 1.5GB of free disk space on your device

If you are unable to successfully configure the account, please visit account.jolla.com and try to reset your password.

Users running software version < 1.0.4.20

If your device is running software version lower than 1.0.4.20 and have WareHouse app installed (i.e you are using OpenRepos), disable all openrepo repositories before attempting to upgrade your device. Else, you risk breaking the device. Read important-steps-to-do-before-updating and how-to-disable-openrepos-repositories posts for more information.

Update the software

If your Jolla is connected to internet, an OS update notification should pop up shortly. If you just can't wait, you can manually trigger an OS update check as follows:

  • Open Settings app
  • Go to System > Sailfish OS updates
  • Pull down the pulley menu and select 'Check for update'
  • Once an OS update notification is received, tap on it and follow the instructions.

Do not reboot the device while the OS update installation is in progress. The process takes up to 10 minutes. During the update, the device screen might blank out. You can awaken the display by a short press on the power key to monitor the progress. When the upgrade has completed successfully, you will see the LED light up red before the device restarts.

In rare circumstances, you may have to try a second time to get through the update successfully.

  • In addition to that, certain thresholds for when memory killer should kick in has been added

Lock screen

  • Attempting to view events (via swipe-up gesture on the lock screen) while the device is locked now brings up the device lock keypad to allow unlocking the device

Settings/Accounts

  • Checks for duplicate Twitter, Facebook and Google accounts before saving a newly configured account

    • Previously, it displayed account's provider and description
  • 'Add accounts' page now lists generic accounts separate from named providers (like Facebook, Google, Twitter, Microsoft Exchange)

Known issues

OS update process

  • Currently, checks on available disk space happens very late during the OS upgrade process and will fail in the installation phase if the disk space is low. No error notification is triggered at this point, instead, the installation phase finishes almost immediately and the device reboots. Should this happen, free some disk space and try to install the OS update again.
  • OS update may fail due to some other reasons too, for example it may have installed some packages from the new release and still have something left from the old. If the device can boot up, you can try to recover by doing the following. If not, you can attempt to recover the device using the recovery mode.
    • Delete the file /home/nemo/.cache/store-client/os-info
    • Stop the store-client process (for e.g. pkill store-client)
    • Reopen Settings app, check for updates again and attempt to install the OS update again
  • We have also noted that if the OS update is attempted while there is long queue of installation of apps from the Store, the system may end up in mixes state (for e.g. select all the apps from startup wizard, and start the system update already while the apps are being installed).
    • In such cases, the OS update appears to be stalled, however it is just waiting for the installations to complete before attempting to upgrade the OS. Just wait patiently, the worst thing to do here is to reboot the device!

Others

  • calDAV and cardDAV services are in experimental stage. You may face issues with certain service providers, in which case, please report it in t.j.c. We'll take a look and try to sort it out.
  • Device can get sluggish when it runs out of memory. In such cases, close your open apps to recover from the situation.
  • At times, the presence status is as displayed offline even though the accounts are online. In such situations, the UI does not allow the status to be changed to online again.
  • Occasionally, certain hidden WiFi networks may not be displayed in scanned results.
  • Mobile data counters do not display correct values while on roaming.
  • It may take several seconds before recent contacts list is displayed in People app.
  • Photos and videos deleted from Gallery may still remain visible in the Camera roll.

Once again LOADS of changes! thank you, opted-in already :)

so when this is tested and refined, will it be available to all as a stable one (after removing the glitches)? or the only way to get this one is now as opt-in?

@gsalone, this one will continue to remain as an opt-in release. We are continuing to refine this and hope to provide the next update as a stable release to all.

Thanks, I've opted in as I don't usually have too many things running that I would be running out of memory. Looking forward to it!

nthn ( 2014-10-22 19:36:23 +0300 )edit

great news. no worry. I opted-in.

I'm also considering opting-in. How intensive would you have to use the OS and multitasking apps to get OOM?

I see we've skipped over 1.0.9 to 1.1.0, Does this mean release 10 was merged into release 9?

strongm ( 2014-10-22 20:03:00 +0300 )edit

Release 10 would still be 1.0.10 so I think the numbering is just meant to indicate that this is a big upgrade.

Edit: although it could be that this update will be merged with update 10 once it is stable, as I understand from @bijjal's comment.

nthn ( 2014-10-22 20:12:54 +0300 )edit

Two of the 'unstable' bits are behaviour that I already recognise. Indeed, isn't there a long thread about the first one on this forum? I'm assuming the problem in 1.1 is considerably worse, however ... how bad is it, and how much memory usage does it take to trigger?

------The device can behave sluggishly when it is low in memory. This can cause annoyances during heavy daily use of your Jolla. A reboot makes things better, but we understand that this is not something our users want to do frequently. -----Common tasks like answering calls, opening notifications, multitasking, switching between apps etc can take tens or hundreds of milliseconds to operate in low memory conditions. For a smooth operation, the OS needs to makes sure that the memory is never critically low.

Does this update contain improvements to pulseaudio which would allow making a call recording app? https://together.jolla.com/question/5008/call-recording-app/#post-id-58323

I can't seem to get any kind of networking (Wi-Fi or mobile data) to work. Tried rebooting, restarting connman.service, didn't help. Any suggestions?

nthn ( 2014-10-22 20:28:58 +0300 )edit

It's downloading... muahahahahaaaaaa! :D

Alright, mobile data works, but Wi-Fi, no way. Every time I enable it, it goes to 'Networking not available." and kills mobile data as well. Disabling Wi-Fi and restarting networking gets mobile data to work again, at least.

So far everything looks fine. ;)

Kollin ( 2014-10-22 20:57:20 +0300 )edit

Same problem than before (last update): Loading update -> finnish Install update -> reboot -> update bar it gain about 15% and then reboot with red led... back to old version again and i can do this forever... maybe i reset...

This update went south. Had to factory reset.

Well, I was informed it could happen... just wanted to share. ;)

eson ( 2014-10-22 21:00:28 +0300 )edit

@eson: can you tell what exactly happened?

ossi1967 ( 2014-10-22 21:02:57 +0300 )edit

@nthn Please cleanup /var/lib/connman/wifi* and restart the stack.

tigeli ( 2014-10-22 21:08:07 +0300 )edit

Updated without incidents. The browser is much better than before.

@tigeli: it seems to have something to do with eduroam, without the wifi_eduroam.config file, everything works as expected. If that file is there, it won't work. I'm using the template provided here: https://together.jolla.com/question/315/wpa-8021x-enterprise-others-gui-wifi-support-needed-workaround/

Did anything change in connman that requires a different config file for eduroam?

nthn ( 2014-10-22 21:16:20 +0300 )edit

Excellent work :-)

ced117 ( 2014-10-22 21:19:07 +0300 )edit

@nthn not to my knowledge.. but will have check on it.

Ok, I'm having an issue. After this update, my Jolla Phone can't connect to wifi. I mean, if I open Settings, the wifi icon is off and if I click on it, the Settings app crashes. I can SSH into my phone using my USB cable, and I saw that iptables.service and connman.service failed. In other words: I can't connect to wifi.

Any hint here? :(

@nthn can you send me the wifi_eduroam.config to tigeli@jolla.com without the password.

tigeli ( 2014-10-22 21:30:11 +0300 )edit

Are you using eduroam?

@ossi1967 if you use programs with webview like ampiaskala and jollatogerher don't update yet.

I think it has something to do with qt update, but webview is not loading in apps. The browser itself seems to be better.

@tigeli: no problem, just a minute.

nthn ( 2014-10-22 21:32:48 +0300 )edit

No, but I was connecting to the wifi of my work. It is protected (with login) and I had to create a .config for connman.

Brudhu ( 2014-10-22 21:37:19 +0300 )edit

I know this might seem like a dump question; but have you tried rebooting?

Louis ( 2014-10-22 21:37:20 +0300 )edit

haha Yes, Louis! It's not a dumb question if you're trying to help! :)

Brudhu ( 2014-10-22 21:39:37 +0300 )edit

nthn, I've just deleted the .config file for connman and now it works (but I can't connect to that wifi I was using before, since it's not configured) :D hahaha

Brudhu ( 2014-10-22 21:41:59 +0300 )edit

Yes, same problem in my case, but with eduroam. It's very strange.

nthn ( 2014-10-22 21:45:43 +0300 )edit

My home WFI is working fine and I also created an eduroam_config file for my university's network some time ago (but yet didn't connect to it since updating to Uitukka). :)

Alex ( 2014-10-22 21:49:59 +0300 )edit

Alex, be prepared to when you get there! haha

I am the only one with an unbootable device after the update?

I had ~4GB free (I know that btrfs does not always report the right free space, so I deleted 2,5GB of data just to be sure), charged battery, connected charger, disabled all patches. Still, the device cannot boot - turns itself off short after an attempt to turn it on, right after the Jolla logo appears.

Update went smoothly. Everything seems to work so far. Thanks!

Plnt ( 2014-10-22 21:53:48 +0300 )edit

I don't hope so - I can't use my Jolla at university without WIFI ... :/

Alex ( 2014-10-22 21:59:41 +0300 )edit

Apparently, the (beta but useful) Quickbar app doesn't work anymore with Uitukka :-(

objectifnul ( 2014-10-22 22:00:21 +0300 )edit

I have it in some apps but not all of them and not in browser.

so is update 10 stable update 9 with a few extra bits, or is update 10 still update 10?

midnightoil ( 2014-10-23 15:17:49 +0300 )edit

What about updating without internet connection, when you release update10? my systemctl status connman -l on http://paste.fedoraproject.org/144587/07422614
