Update: We'll start rolling out this release to everyone today (15.6).

Please ensure that you have ~1.5GB of free disk space and connect your Jolla to a charger 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.
Take a backup of your data before attempting to upgrade your device. A successful backup operation is indicated by a green dot in the UI.
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

1.1.6.27 (8.6.2015): Initial early access release

Known issues

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!

Highlights missing Flattr support in Store which is in the Changelog. I'd consider that a fairly big highlight and worth mentioning to non-developers

Having to uninstall patchmanager and phonehook again and again is not a good idea. Please consider a feature like 'Factory Reset' that prepares your phone for the next update.

Edit: Number of patches are going to continue to increase. Also more and more apps are being added to warehouse and they are usually pretty good. Uninstalling apps/patches with every new update is not going to get easier. Mistakes will happen. Dont you think we should prepare for this eventuality

I don't think Jolla is responsible for being compatible with any third-party patches. I think it's enough to warn and say deactivate it.

These things are not allowed in Harbour for a reason. If you have enabled Developer Mode you are assumed to take a certain amount of responsibility for what happens to your device, including micromanaging anything that is known to cause issues with the upgrade process.

r0kk3rz ( 2015-06-08 14:30:53 +0300 )edit

@Sailor Considering how wildly successful many of these patches are - maybe Jolla should just accept them "upstream" (even as an default-off optional feature) so that people don't need to use Patch Manager to install them ? ;-)

That would also kinda fit the #unlike (we aren't like Apple, dictating to users how the UI should look like), co-creation, together, etc. spirit.

@MartinK you mean like adding in a voicemail notification (this release) and having lock screen media controls (on roadmap)?

@r0kk3rz Yeah, that's definitely a step in the right direction. :)

This is a bug within us, not an answer ;) Well, good to inform here as well of course, but maybe adding a link to the "bug" report: https://together.jolla.com/question/95883/bug-reports-posted-as-answers/

i agree with chemist, the "bug-reporting within release notes" is pretty awful for a good structured overview.

Private browsing mode needs to be changed to standard mode - closing applications is not enough. I think, closing browser should change it automatically to standard mode.

same problem, not just with whatsup, with native transfers too(receive file via bt, browser downloads,...)

nightmare ( 2015-06-09 21:18:42 +0300 )edit

ya it's correct i should report it to developer of whatsup. but i used hike chat app after OS update from 1.1.2 to 1.1.4 notification icon changed(didn't updated the hike app). It means not only the app should be updated there is some issue with system software too.

Anyone else have the problem that music played with the standard media player is like 1.2 times too fast? It's not like "chipmunks" fast but it's definitely halfway there and very noticeable.

Update: I did a comparison between 60 secs from a clock and the amount of seconds played, it's about 64, so it's more like 1,067 times too fast. Also, it's not limited to the standard player, other sailfish and android players have the same issue. It's just me or noone uses Jolla for music?

Tried a song with it and didn't notice anything different.

Start a new thread with it and others might chime in.

just did a test with my laptop playing the same file in unison. seems fine. I'm not using the Jolla-medaplayer though.

r0kk3rz ( 2015-06-18 21:21:23 +0300 )edit

I do have this problem when streaming music from Jolla, via bluetooth to my laptop (laptop connected to an amp/speakers), but I'm having problems with bluetooth in general on my laptop, so I can't say which is in error, I have a feeling it's the bluetooth on the laptop.

Spam Hunter ( 2015-06-18 23:25:15 +0300 )edit

Markkyboy! That's it! All this time I've been using my Bluetooth headset to test things. Listen without Bluetooth and it's back to normal... Immediately went to the complete changelog to search for changes in Bluetooth implementation. Couldn't find anything directly useful, but the "[bluetooth] Use BluetoothPairingManager to handle pairing process" kinda seemed interesting. Unpaired the headset, repaired and presto, problem gone. However, after switching the power on the headset on and off, the problem is back. I guess I'll have to unpair-repair it everytime until it gets fixed...

jkhlam ( 2015-06-19 00:05:20 +0300 )edit

Interestingly, 48 kHz / 44.1 kHz ≃ 1.088… might it be the issue?

Is the problem still present with files using a sample rate of 48 kHz?

after uptade: Messages are now closed completely after swipe to close, every next launch of messages takes ages and mostly starting app cover disapear - and after moments app appear on screan, this is similar startup time to first launch after phone boot ( appcover of starting messages disapearing noticed after 1.1.4 but the loadtime is related to my growing messages size, i never deleted any message since first Symbian, so i wont change my habbit)

until this update it was acceptable to wait until all messages are fetched from storage (thousands of sms / im ) for the first start, right after phone boot , then next openning of messages after closing app was fast.

now i should not close messages.... and it makes my jolla bit unusable in stress time

please make an option for : close whole messages app / close messages UI (keep messages in cache)

edit: 76 seconds for each start of app !

Since update I have dramatic battery drain especially with mobile data on. Before it was about 12 hour before the battery is empty. Now it is almost two time quicker. Usage is almost the same. You can see the difference on the attached diagram. image description

A lot of people have the same draining trouble, me too. I really don't know why. But every hour or less than one hour, i loose 10% of charge O_o.

no may be some other problem, everyone can open new tab. Try to restart mobile or reinstall system software.

tabs doesnt seem to work in private browsing. if your browsers text field is striped you are in private browsing. change it by tapping tabs, square thing with number inside, drag down and choose normalbrowsing

Browser is nearly unusable in my case. Everytime if there is more than one tab opened OOM-Killer closes all apps and also the browser itself... Anybody else got the same problem?

Edit: A few restarts fixed the problem. Now browser works like in 1.1.4.x

like 1.1.2 version browser sometime closes automatically. sometime android apps if minimized exits automatically.
