Hello together,

since a couple of days it isn't possible to buy the poppy red TOH on jolla store. It has always the "out of stock" status. According to some people it could be never sell anymore, that i don't believe this point of view, otherwise it would be completely disappeared from the store. Maybe the production has some problem, maybe jolla has currently too many to do (between the next os-update, the slush show, the tablet, & so on..).

The only fact that I remark we couldn't pre-order this part. Even if the stock are empty, if there is still a plan to sell it further, it will be really nice to have the possibility to pre-order this part.

I want with this post to gather all the people who are interested to become this TOH especially. To motivate jolla to bring the production further on work for it.

So every one who is interested, please vote it ;-)

Have a nice day.

PS: my request is just on the poppy red toh, and has nothing to do with this one (https://together.jolla.com/question/37707/getting-the-poppy-red-ambiance/). and not with this one (https://together.jolla.com/question/65796/shoppre-order-possibility-as-alternative-of-other-half-and-accesoires-out-of-stock/) which is more bound whole store philosophy.

There's nothing special about it at all. Just order one of the cheap 3D printed red TOHs.

oups! molded polycarbonate has nothing to do with 3d print things. that like day and night. thanks for your try ;-)

cemoi71 ( 2014-12-01 21:32:35 +0300 )edit

it's barely more durable, and costs much less in large batches.

Hi, I just ordered a poppy red TOH at this shop: http://www.multitronic.fi/index.php?setlang=en (Normaly they don't ship to Germany but they made an exeption.)

They claim they ship internationally: http://www.verkkokauppa.com/fi/product/15072/dsmnn/Jolla-The-Other-Half-kuori-Poppy-Red

And other shops I found:

misc11 ( 2014-12-27 19:55:30 +0300 )edit

@misc11 yes closed because of the early motivation was that jolla bring the business further. but the answer as you have seen, that poppy red won't be sold further. Thank you very much for your feed back. Maybe you or someone could open a thread about how could someone buy the rest of produced poppy-red ...

Poppy-red TOH was a special and exclusive gift for people who ordered Jolla phone early in the first wave. I don't think Jolla will manufacture it more, at least exactly the same.

No; you're thinking of the "First One" other half. It was red, too, and had "I'm the first one" printed on it.

The poppy red OH is the same color, but without the writing. (And it has a different ringtone IIRC) It was available from the Jolla shop.

okay, thanks for the correction.

The wording on the back of the 'exclusive' TOH is just The First One - just saying :)

Yes, the Poppy Red TOH (not The First One) is usually available at the Jolla shop, but is currently showing as 'out of stock' - now, surely, if the item is is discontinued, then why bother to still show it in the store..?, this is why I have asked @cemoi71 if he can post the response from Jolla - as I believe there is some confusion between The First One (also poppy red colour) and the current non exclusive Poppy Red TOH.

It would be good to know and for Jolla to either tag their 'out of stock' notification with a 'back in stock soon' or 'discontinued' message. (Several questions very similar have also been asked regarding store/availability of the Poppy Red TOH).

I asked Jolla about the possibility to buy PoppyRed TOH in the future and they answered:


Hei, valitettavasti Poppy Red Other Half ei tule enään palaamaan valikoimaan. Ystävällisin terveisin, Jolla Asiakastuki


A rough translation would be: We are not going to manufacture PoppyRed anymore in the future. Br Jolla Customer care


So, need to start looking for something else, maybe a SolarTOH...

@Markkyboy: i had/have the same opinion as you. could be some confusion. And 1st of all if it's for ever gone, why shloud it stay on the jolla-shop? if they don't want sell anymore, it would be wise too put it from shop away. but it still inside. anyway the confusion is really there, i think regards

Jolla support had confirmed what some people already told on this forum. Poppy red TOH will never be sell. Maybe if so much people ask for, could bring jolla to reproduce it...

Hi,

You are asking difficult questions. I am not a networking expert but a customer care person... ;-)

I have filed a bug to our internal defect datbase about your issue and attached your log file to it.

For connections to a PC over USB in mass storage fashing (MTP, actually) you need to take the "PC connection" option on Jolla. For connections to PC/Ubuntu over USB in SSH fashion you need to take the "Developer mode" option on Jolla.

Personally I prefer WLAN for SSH access as it is so easy to use. Yes, both the phone and the PC must be connected to the same WLAN network (the same SSID).

Putty app on Windows PC: SSH uses port #22 (the default). I am not sure about the port Ubuntu terminal is using. How to check it? On the other hand, I need not do anything else but what is in the articles I sent yesterday.

Poppy red TOH's are unfortunately sold out forever.

Sincerely, Jolla Customer Care

This decision is very sad. So I think this also implicit that there won't be any new colors for TOHs... I am so badly want to have a cyan TOH :(

Alex ( 2014-12-18 21:38:21 +0300 )edit

@Alex ??? i don't know the reason for the poppy red but aloe (cyan for you) is still on shop

cemoi71 ( 2014-12-19 01:10:04 +0300 )edit

@cemoi71 I have the Aloe OH and this is not cyan but turquoise. And I am waiting for a blue/cyan (like the cyan Nokia N9) TOH since the launch. :)

Alex ( 2014-12-19 09:56:44 +0300 )edit

@Alex i know how is aloe (i have it too) it is not turquoise too, the colour is like the plant one, but nevermind, now i see what you mean more or less. My question to you now is, are you sure that other colour-tohs comes? or you wish that some of them comes? with one which could be cyan.
did you see this thread ? maybe you can make some vote inside about proposition, or make a proposition too. ;-)

cemoi71 ( 2014-12-19 11:08:21 +0300 )edit

@cemoi71 Sorry I think I expressed myself badly... I hope and wish that there will be some new TOHs but it seems to me that Jolla won't introduce any new TOHs anymore. :) Thanks for the link but I already voted it up (and also proposed it in an other question). :)

Is it possible to purchase more white TOH's or must I wipe down the only one I have when I want to change the design on it?

oenone ( 2014-11-29 21:07:05 +0300 )edit

@albacoris: you are funny boy.. and how do you with your just white toh make-up in other one to unlock the ambiance (background and sound) of black, aloe and poppy-red toh? I know, it's not impossible, but need a lots of effort, and it's not for newbies..

cemoi71 ( 2014-11-30 00:04:26 +0300 )edit

I painted my white TOH with colour markers, wallpaper changed by Ambience (I chose the photo that I like), and I set the ringtone manually from the file... It is ridiculous to pay more than 20 Euro for a different wallpaper and ringtone. You have five years? :))) And even ASK manufacturer to graciously sold this crap - it's a sign of @@@@ :)

albacoris ( 2014-11-30 16:10:12 +0300 )edit

i believe you and i understand you too. but not every one could do that so easily... i find really sad and silly from you that you offend me that i 5 years. my point of view is on the side of the one who cannot do this. now i ask me who has less than 5 years BOY! and ask a firm which just earn his money on hardware, with Opensource software. Which has great conviction and big ideas who want to bring an other experience to some people. And have nice product, If they have some difficulties to invest their time/people to make it better. How will you do it? boy? some people spend, jolla don't want that people spend for them, they ask better buy their product. I find it really noble for their side. So, that why i want to buy it for them and for all who like it/them. because they are different and their product too. Because i am different to, and that kind of firm and people are for me relevant. And those people like you who are arrogant, are really uninteresting, but need to be back to their real place. BOY

cemoi71 ( 2014-11-30 21:33:03 +0300 )edit

#cemoi71 I agree with you - I do appreciate the value of which you write. That's why I bought Jolla! But, you can't uncritically accept everything in Jolla business. If you felt offended by my comment (it was ironic) - i'm SORRY. I just wanted to note that in this day and age it's funny that we have to ASK producer to sell us something. And for me, wallpaper and ringtone are quite secondary matters :)

Poppy red covers might not be anymore in Jolla store, but I bought it from a normal store few months ago. If you are in Finland or you have a friend (new or old) in Finland you can buy it for example from Verkkokauppa.com (http://www.verkkokauppa.com/fi/product/15072/dsmnn/Jolla-The-Other-Half-kuori-Poppy-Red). They say that they have it in 3 of their stores (total 6 pieces). However, those stores won't ship it to you. You have to get it yourself. How about making yourself a new Finnish friend? Good luck :)

hello juzupuh, thank you for the information, i was aware about it, specially on the webpage that you mentioned, but i was not able to make the operation... Finnish tongue is quit difficult ;-) do you know which kind of payment they accept?

cemoi71 ( 2014-12-01 15:19:29 +0300 )edit

@cemoi71: This is not an add but the Verkkokauppa accepts many payments (including cash, visa, mastercard, bank transfer). The problem you'll be facing is that they don't have any in their main storage (päävarasto) and they won't deliver from their shops (myymälät) to main storage or send it to customers. main storage is the only one that sends the items via post. You'd have to go to get it from the store (Helsinki, Pirkkala or Oulu). The storage (päävarasto) status is 0, but awailability says 2-5days. I don't know why or where they would get new stock if the rumor of Jolla not producing those anymore is true.

I haven't been in Finland for several months and I don't know when I will go there next time, so I cannot help. Hopefully there could be another person who can do it. My regards.

juzupuh ( 2014-12-01 16:26:04 +0300 )edit

@juzupuh - when you connected your poppy red TOH to your Jolla, did it install the ambience correctly/in full??
