Hi, I have encountered the same problem tonight and I'm honestly exhausted and can't find anything helpful but questions left unaswered such as yours.

To this day, have you managed to solve this issue? I'm a student and sending my Jolla back to Finland in warranty and possibly not having it back for a month or more would really complicate my mobility and communication.
