Update: We'll start rolling out the update to everyone today. If possible, update with the device connected to a charger. If you have phonehook from OpenRepos installed uninstall it before upgrading.

Please ensure that you have ~1.5GB of free disk space before attempting to upgrade your Jolla. If connected to the internet, and your account is subscribed for early access releases, your Jolla should receive an OS update notification shortly.

As usual,

  • If you use phonehook from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
  • If you use patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading
  • 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.
  • Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress.
  • The device screen may blank out during the update process, you may waken the display by a short press on the power key to monitor the progress.

For detailed instructions on updating software, visit Zendesk

Upgrade version history

  • 1.1.4.28 (15.4.2015): Initial early access release
  • 1.1.4.29 (28.4.2015): Fix 'peek to events possible on locked device' and 'duplicate caldav calendars'

Highlights

  • Split keyboard in landscape mode, with option to turn it off
  • IMAP implementation now has support for idle/push
  • Maps now supports landscape orientation
  • Facebook API has been updated to 2.2, which unfortunately causes loss of features (chat or contacts sync, see the end of the roadmap email). We are awaiting an approval of the new implementation from Facebook, until then you will unfortunately experience a broken Facebook account (including being unable to share status message and photos).
  • Better swipe feedback

Known issues

OS update process

  • If you have phonehook from OpenRepos installed uninstall it before upgrading.
  • 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. Normally there should be an error note asking you to free some disk space and try again, but in some marginal cases it might not be shown. 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 mixed 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!

Other issues

  • calDAV and cardDAV services are in experimental stage. We have made some improvements with this update, however you may still face issues with certain service providers. Do report it in t.j.c. We'll take a look and try to sort it out.
  • Deleting photo from Camera roll may also delete the previous photo. If camera reel's pulley menu has "Show details" greyed out - means the photo hasn't been indexed yet. Deleting photo in such state will result in previous photo deleted too. If you wait long enough (~10-15seconds) for 'Show details' to become active, only that photo will get deleted when you choose to.

Already got it ;)

I like it so far, smooth in general, feels tighter, quicker, more responsive over all. Not long now and we'll be talking about Sailfish OS 2.0 :)

As according to the full changelog in the seperate post, the "some calDAV improvements" that are talked about are not more than "Use ignore_ssl_errors configuration option"?

Update failed at first, ended up "between" the versions, without icons for example. I don't hack my Jolla much, and this was the first update causing any kind of smallest trouble. However, updating on second try was successful.

The installation process was quite slow. The new version has a significant improvement in the responsiveness of the device.

if I'm already on the 1.1.4.28 due upgrading via ssu re latest; version --dup how to update to the latest changes? via pkcon?

thx

First: Directly updating via pkcon is dangerous, and may brick your device. version --dup avoids this, but does not do repository isolation, and may break your device if you have 3rd party repositories enabled during update.

Second: Releases are available on public infrastructure a short time before releasing so we're capable of doing update tests exactly as it'll be for end users. This means, if there are problems breaking your device on update they'll show up in that short period between "available on public infra" and "early access" -- and breaking your device during that period will _not_ be covered by warranty. We do not actively prevent anyone from getting their hands on those "close to release" versions, but you should only use it if you know the risks, and have a rescue system prepared to restore your device in case of failure.

In your case, try setting the release version to 1.1.4.28 by doing "ssu re 1.1.4.28", and update through the store client.

Aard ( 2015-04-16 14:49:23 +0300 )edit

thx for this. I wouldn't do it next time. What is the store client in this case? warehouse?

I have two CalDav accounts on Owncloud synced before. After the upgrade the accounts doubled (two of both Owncloud accounts) and not synced anymore. After deleting the twins and syncing there are still two entries of one Owncloud account at the pulley "manage calendars" - "Kalender Verwalten" in the calendar app (the second of the calendars I created on Owncloud). No way to remove this calendar anymore (though I did not try to delete the second account by now)

The account duplication issue is a new one - most likely due to a bug in our account migration scripts. I'll look into it. With regards to the "non-removable calendar entries" that one is a known issue which was fixed recently but the fix won't be in the Aiganpaivanjarvi update - see https://github.com/nemomobile/buteo-sync-plugin-caldav/commit/bdf47ded11672f604921c2cbfd88a4f72b66dfc6 for that one.

chris.adams ( 2015-04-17 03:21:27 +0300 )edit

After the upgrade my CalDAV accounts on Davical reports "Not signed inn". Signing inn and entering the password again yields:

Oops, problem with account creation
The account could not be updated

Deleting and adding accounts is a functional workaround.

Apart from that, looks good. Thanks!

kid ( 2015-04-20 22:37:45 +0300 )edit

One unwanted sideeffect though, after deleting the non-working calendars they are still avaliable in the calendar.

Hmm, how does one delete them?

I tried to update to Äijänpäivänjärvi but got a message that the update failed. After I rebooted the device, Yliaavanlampi (1.1.2.16) is still in the device and while trying to update again the Äijänpäivänjärvi update won't show in the OS updates like before. I already tried this: Delete the file /home/nemo/.cache/store-client/os-info, Stop the store-client process (for e.g. pkill store-client) but there is no such file as os-info. I also rebooted the phone but nothing changed.

Also battery status doesn't show the percentage at all and mobile network icon is grayed and wifi icon is missing. I still can make phone calls and Internet works with both 3G and wifi.

Is there any other way to get the phone back to normal and update the Äijänpäivänjärvi than going back to factory settings?

My update 1.1.4.28 went ok, but it broke my accounts linking. It won´t show any facebook contacts on a people app. And linking between phonebook contacts and facebook is gone. I deleted all my accounts and add it again, but it didn´t help. Facebook newsfeed from notification menu is working.

From above:

Facebook API has been updated to 2.2, which unfortunately causes loss of features (chat or contacts sync, see the end of the roadmap email)

vitaminj ( 2015-04-16 19:51:41 +0300 )edit

Nyt on pakko vaihtaa kieli suomeksi kun ei tuo englanti taivu niin hyvin. Siis onko todella niin että viimeisimmän päivityksen jälkeen käsissäni on "älypuhelin" johon voin linkittää Facebook profiilin, jolla en oikeastaan tee juuri mitään. Kaikki avatarkuvat yms on siis historiaa? Eikä facebook viestit toimi? Nyt eikä vastaisuudessa? Valitettavasti vaikuttaa menevän kehitys taaksepäin. Alusta asti puhelinta käyttäneenä, tämä vaikuttaa valtavalta pettymykseltä.

Nitro ( 2015-04-16 20:04:13 +0300 )edit

So do I understand it correct that all your facebook contacts (which were linked to existing phone contatcs), including the facebook avatars, the facebook timeline picture and all the data extracted from facebook (e-mail, birthday etc) disappeared? 0.o

@Nitro Tietääkseni myös Facebook itse on vaihtamassa tähän uuteen API-versioon, joten tämä olisi tapahtunut kuitenkin (olisiko kuun lopussa ollut).

Fist one update... I don't like update anymore at all..

Lets move on. I update -> looks fine, but it's always says there is new update.. I think i have so much odd thinks going one again (accounts suddenly removed example), so maybe i do reset and start again....... and that was BIG mistage!

Reset my phone, only think i do is update and i can update, but not that latest 1.1.4, only rebooted everytime.. Reset my phone again! Only update. When i get it again in 1.1.4 update, it installing in black screen. Then it reboot, but only RED led is on, i think i wait.... and i wait... and i wait.. only red light. Power putton is not working, so battery remove -> Rebootloop and there i am. I have only 0.0.1 recovery and phone reset is not working anymore.. i am so sad... and mad...

How i can make reset anymore with recovery 0.0.1?

As written in the post, there were other things to do before reseting the phone, why didn't you try them? :/

Sthocs ( 2015-04-16 22:01:04 +0300 )edit

@Sthocs I think, i choose "easy way out" :D. But i think my Jolla is broken and way to repair :). Hope it will work more stable after that. It lost too often very important files (got blank People app, suddenly removed Accounts, removed Gallery info and so on). Maybe memory fault.. Some pictures get corrupted too.

Installed without hitch.

Feedback:

(1) UI is a little smoother.

(2) Feels significantly quicker (back to pre update 9 speed). Though this is conditional on (4).

(3) Out of memory killer is more difficult to trigger, which is a relief.

(4) HOWEVER - there are still obviously major RAM usage / management problems, as every time I've opened a couple of tabs in a browser (and memory usage shoots up), the phone slows to a crawl. Granted, this is less frustrating than constantly having all apps (except phone app) close, but I think the Jolla's days are numbered. If I don't move to Android (likely Paranoid Android or CM), I'll be moving to Sailfish on an Android phone (with more RAM).

Jolla needs to partner with Mozilla here, and work together to bring us a polished browser. Stuff like Firefox Sync in invaluable to me, and Firefox for Android ends up being my default browser.

When creating a new email account, the option is enable IDLE is not present. After account the edition screen doesn't show it either. I need to close the settings window and re-open it for this option to appear.

Indeed, the IDLE option is not present during account creation. It's present after the email account is created and by entering setting again,

It doesn't seem to work either, or it's very buggy (once it happend that it actually synced when a mail arrived). Now I have a new mail for 5 minutes, and Jolla's mail client still "thinks" it's up to date.

clouseau ( 2015-04-17 10:09:34 +0300 )edit

seems to work here, however I had trouble finding it because it was "too" intuitive. It's found under "Synchronisierungs-E-Mail" (that's not proper German by the way ... probably something like "Update Intervall" in English) and then instead of eg 15min you have to set it to "Immer aktuell"/"Always up-to-date". You should add this to the release notes at least.

But nice to have it, thanks :)

simonschmeisser ( 2015-04-18 14:22:12 +0300 )edit

It works for me! While I'm using only english as interface language the term "Always up-to-date" didn't declares it means "IDLE/Push-Mail". Maybe it would be better to change this to "Always up-to-date (IDLE/PUSH)". Regular users need just to read "Always" and get what they looked for, while technial experienced users need just to read "IDLE/PUSH" and get what they looked for.

Or we just wait till everybody nows. Fixed by time ;-)

hoschi ( 2015-04-21 15:13:38 +0300 )edit

I think the problem is that we're all a bit more technical than the average user. We say IDLE, but they would have no idea what we're talking about. However, IMHO, "Immediately" would sound better and more obvious that "always".

Standard camera is broken since the update

edit flag offensive delete publish link more

Comments

The standard camera app seems to work fine for me, but if I use QR code scanning (SailOTP or SGAuth), after the code gets scanned the camera "freezes" and won't work again until I restart the device. I just get black screen (with UI) on the camera app and Cameraplus gets just the app icon. Both also get the "should this app be closed or do you want to wait" warning. I don't think the camera froze when I added accounts earlier on older firmware.
