Revision history [back]

Sorry, I'm creating a new question for this old issue, as old solution doesn't work anymore.

Could not re-enable dev mode again (same issue with XperiaX and Jolla phone)

XperiaX: SFOS 2.2.0.29 Mouhijoki

Jolla phone: SFOS 3.1.0 Seitseminen

After having temporarily disabled dev mode before someone else uses my phones, I couldn't re-enable it (won't do that again in the future, for sure).

In Jolla settings-dev mode: progress bar "checking status" displayed for more than 10 minutes, then security code asked for dev mode enabling, then "accept" page, then... nothing (endless static progress bar saying -or not- "installing dev mode")

Of course, no sfos-upgrade or version --dup, as devel-su isn't available.

According to some old topics on similar issues, the culprit could be openssh, so I tried to uninstall it.

With Storeman: Two versions of openssh are shown as "installed" : (i) from NielDK and (ii) from lashs0r, although I never installed the lashs0r version (repository not enabled). Could not uninstall openssh (with or without NielDK repo enabled): endless process.

From terminal: Could not execute pkcon uninstall openssh => fatal error - this would break your system

pkcon install jolla-settings-sailfishos fails: fatal error - failed to obtain authentication

Tried to disable/enable my jolla account. It didn't help.

Any suggestion?
