Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Decrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
display wake-up flashes old UI content
startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Decrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

~~fingerprint~~ Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
~~display~~ Display wake-up flashes old UI content
~~startup~~ Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
~~display~~ Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Decrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Encryption of SD cards supported now; the necessary passphrase dialogs added
Formatting of encrypted card works, too
Read more about SD cards below under the heading "About SD cards"

UX

Top Menu introduced -- make it visible by pulling down from the top (in the middle of the device top) -- always available, regardless of the sate of the UI -- new toggle switches: momentary on/off labels, filled icon means an active connection -- long-press a switch to access respective settings pages (opens context menu) -- shortcuts and Quick Actions under one view

Sailfish 3 welcome screen appears during the first boot up after installing the OS update

In-app view launch times improved hundreds of milliseconds by loading the views during the transition (on average 33% faster on Xperia X)

VPN

VPN changes are mostly architectural to increase robustness of the connections

Weather

EULA viewable at Settings > About product

Storage

External storage devices can now be accessed over USB On-The-Go
Formatting of SD cards improved, including that formatting of FAT, exFAT and ext4 cards works now (Sailfish formats everything to ext4) <- really, I though it is FAT for smaller than 32G cards?

Encryption of SD cards supported now; the necessary passphrase dialogs added
Formatting of encrypted card works, too
Read more about SD cards below under the heading "About SD cards"

UX

Top Menu introduced -- make it visible by pulling down from the top (in the middle of the device top) -- always available, regardless of the sate of the UI -- new toggle switches: momentary on/off labels, filled icon means an active connection -- long-press a switch to access respective settings pages (opens context menu) -- shortcuts and Quick Actions under one view
New way to quickly close an app: swipe down from the top but near either of the corners - this is "always on" (no setup item for this any more)
Sailfish 3 welcome screen appears during the first boot up after installing the OS update
App launch times improved hundreds of milliseconds through optimizations and smarter transitions (on average 25% faster on Xperia X)
In-app view launch times improved hundreds of milliseconds by loading the views during the transition (on average 33% faster on Xperia X)

VPN

VPN changes are mostly architectural to increase robustness of the connections
Saving of VPN settings has improved: VPN connection is now updated properly instead of removing the old and creating new with updated content
When removing a connected VPN from UI all the content related to that VPN is properly removed

Weather

Weather details layout polished for landscape orientation (tablet)
Instruct user to type more when under 3 character location search limit (note finding 1-2 character length place names still works)

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Decrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Decrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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.

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step ~~counter~~counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes decrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Thu Nov 1st: Exchange cannot be installed. We are investigating the problem. Sorry for the incenvenience caused.
Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes ~~decrypted~~ unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Thu Nov 1st: Exchange cannot be installed. We are investigating the problem. Sorry for the incenvenience caused.
Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

~~Thu Nov 1st: Exchange cannot be installed. We are investigating the problem. Sorry for the incenvenience caused.~~
Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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.

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth not working (initial basic support only)
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Fingerprint support not working
NFC not working
Bluetooth: initial ~~basic~~ support only
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

NOTE: -Too many failures in installing Sailfish OS to Xperia XA2 devices have been reported tonight (Nov 8th). These devices fail to boot up after a seemingly successful flashing. Please consider postponing the Sailfish flashing until we know better the error mechanism and have been able to eliminate it. This would probably save you from unnecessary harm. Apologies for all this.

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Too many failures in installing Sailfish OS to Xperia XA2 devices have been reported tonight (Nov 8th). These devices fail to boot up after a seemingly successful flashing. Please consider ~~postponing~~ the postponing the flashing of Sailfish ~~flashing~~ OS to XA2 until we know better the error mechanism and have been able to eliminate it. This would probably save you from unnecessary harm. Apologies for all this.
~~Fingerprint support not working~~
NFC not working
Bluetooth: initial support only
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

NOTE: Too many failures in installing It is again possible to install Sailfish ~~OS to Xperia~~ 3.0.0.8 toXperia XA2 ~~devices~~ devices. Please note that you need to download the installable file again from https://shop.jolla.com/downloads/ as the flashing scripts have been reported tonight (Nov 8th). These devices fail to boot up after a seemingly successful flashing. Please consider postponing the flashing of Sailfish X to XA2 until we know better the error mechanism and have been able to eliminate it. This would probably save you from unnecessary harm. Apologies for all this.renewed.

Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Too many failures in installing Sailfish OS to Xperia XA2 devices have been reported tonight (Nov 8th). These devices fail to boot up after a seemingly successful flashing. Please consider postponing the flashing of Sailfish OS to XA2 until we know better the error mechanism and have been able to eliminate it. This would probably save you from unnecessary harm. Apologies for all this.
NFC not working
Bluetooth: initial support only
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

It is again possible to install Sailfish 3.0.0.8 toXperia XA2 devices. Please note that you need to download the installable file again from https://shop.jolla.com/downloads/ as the flashing scripts have been renewed.

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Changelog

For detailed changelog, see https://together.jolla.com/question/191507/changelog-300-lemmenjoki/ .

Updating your device

Your device must be connected to the Internet and signed into your Jolla account. If your Jolla account is registered for Early Access releases you should receive an OS update notification when an update is available. If you have decided not to take the Early Access registration then you will get the OS update typically one week later.

We warmly recommend making some 3-4 GB of free space to the internal storage of your device before starting the update. Move your pictures and videos to the SD card (or to your PC or cloud service). After the upgrade turn on the option to save pictures and videos directly from the camera to the memory card (Settings > Apps > Camera). This is important particularly in case of "Jolla Phone" devices (product name "Jolla" in Settings > About product).

This is the usual drill before attempting to update your devices:

Take a backup of your data before attempting to update your device and save the backup to an SD card or to some other off-device location (PC, your cloud service). Note that videos and images are not included in cloud-based backups. Do not reboot the device while the update is in progress. Do keep the phone connected to a battery charger during the whole process. 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: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/201836347

Notification concerning apps from Open Repos

If you use Phonehook or Callrecorder from OpenRepos, uninstall it before upgrading
If you use oFono from OpenRepos, revert to the official oFono before upgrading
If you use Patchmanager, revert all applied patches before upgrading.

About Exchange email account on Jolla Phones

Jolla Phone users: There is a Exchange Active Sync plugin for Jolla Phones in 3.0.0. Please remove your Exchange account from your Jolla Phone before installing 3.0.0. Once done and 3.0.0 installed, get the new version of Exchange from Jolla Store and install it. Then sign in to your Exchange account. This is the recommended order, however, deleting the old incompatible account afterwards should be possible, too.

About SD cards

Encrypted cards must be both unlocked and mounted by the user to make them available for Sailfish applications.
Non-encrypted cards are mounted automatically when the device is turned on.
Make sure that you unmount the card before taking the option to format it or else the card may malfunction in the Sailfish device. Should this happen, format the card with a PC first.
Encrypted cards can be formatted only when they are locked. Formatting removes the encryption in this case (the card becomes unencrypted and unmounted). You can then format it again with the option to encrypt, if needed.

Known issues

Bluetooth pairing and audio connections may still fail in some circumstances
Some Facebook services (syncing FB events to calendar; uploading pictures to FB from gallery) do not work (independent of your OS release) due to some changes at the FB end. We will figure out how to fix this.
Light ambience concept of Sailfish 3 needs polishing and tuning up. There are still issues with the colours of different objects when using the ambiences that have light background colours.

Known issues specific to Xperia X

NFC not working
Issues with mobile data persist on some SIM cards. Turn the Flight mode on and off to reset the network setup. Reverting the device to Android and re-installing Sailfish X has often helped. See our support article: https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/115004283713
Manual network/carrier search lists all networks by the same name (the name of the SIM provider). Use automatic search. If not possible, you need to try several items in the manual search results, unfortunately. The top most item is not necessarily the one that can serve you (still valid with most SIM cards)
[camera] Force autofocus mode for photos, and continuous for video. After this, camera focus is still not ideal - as the camera stays out of focus when it starts until you either tap or try to take a shot - but the pictures seem to be better focused now
Xperia X does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Bluetooth: Still problems with car equipment, some audio devices and computers.
Waking up the device by double-tap does not work
Loudspeaker volume level cannot be adjusted high enough (but echo cancellation was added to the audio path in 2.1.4)
Sensors:
- Not working: barometer, step counter, NFC
FM radio missing
Not all SD cards are recognised and mounted.

Known issues specific to Xperia XA2

Flashing Sailfish X to XA2 might still fail (so far seen to happen on Ubuntu 18.04 when using USB3 port). Please read https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012031854
NFC not working
Bluetooth: initial support only
Display wake-up flashes old UI content
Startup wizard is showing noise before actual language selection UI
FM radio not implemented
XA2 does not power up when alarm time has elapsed
Display blanking is unstable during phonecalls or alarms (due to proximity sensor).

[release notes] 3.0.0 Lemmenjoki

Lots more Sailfish 3 innovations drop with Lemmenjoki. Sailfish 3 now fully packetizes the offering for multitude of corporate and governmental solutions. In line with the regional licensing strategy, Sailfish 3 has a deeper level of security making it a solid option for various corporate and organizational solutions, and other use cases. In addition to the security and corporate features there are many user experience highlights for Sailfish 3.0.0. Sailfish 3 brings the new Top Menu, giving you quick access to lots of functions with a single swipe. The new Light Ambiences will show you your device in a whole different light. SD card support has been improved with better formatting and encryption, and you can use external storage through USB On-The-Go. Also in this release we have quick keyboard layout switching, a dedicated Gallery folder for screenshots and Xperia XA2 support for Sailfish X. Finally, there are system-wide speed improvements: both the new app launch and in-app page opening paths are considerably quicker now. Things load faster.

Many thanks to you our active contributors for your feedback and proposals!

It is again possible to install Sailfish 3.0.0.8 toXperia XA2 devices. Please note that you need to download the installable file again from https://shop.jolla.com/downloads/ as the flashing scripts have been renewed.
