Developer mode not loading

First of all I have a basic setup: Now extra repos, no android apps and no special configuration. I have only enable the developer mode for terminal access.

The topic describes only the last problem. This started with opening multiple apps (store, terminal, email and such. 6 in total which is quite many what I usually do). I guess that the phones window manager (wayland?) crashed. The screen went black and the green led plinked a few times (three?). After this the aplication screen came back with all apps killed. After playing to see if everything was ok I went to the store which proudly presented the message "You have no apps installed". I played some more to check what caused the crash. The only thing that I noticed was that I just got a mail (nothing special, 37kb). Then I checked the mail contents and it crashed immediately again. I did this a few times to get the feeling that the crash is either originating from the mail or memory. After some testing I also noticed that the keyboard was not coming up.

So, I restarted the phone. After this the keyboard and the mail worked just fine but I'm still getting the "you have no apps" message. Because I just happened to read about this ( http://www.jollausers.com/2014/04/having-trouble-with-jolla-store-we-have-a-solution/ ) I knew what to do.

So, I went to the developer mode. It is loading but not getting anywhere. The small bars are going forward (some times there is no bars at all) but it is not getting anywhere. Some times it brings the "Register", "Username" and "password" question but answering to that does not help. I can get the menu again by poking around the loading bar which is still loading.
