Once I finished all steps and tried to boot to sailfish (and if i still try) this is what happens:
1. power on
2. scary varranty void message
3. ubiboot screen
4. press Sailfish logo
5. screen goes black and STAYS black

But the phone is still on, or atleast I think it is because when I press the lock/power button the charge light doesn't go on. If I press the power button for a longer time the phone powers off, and the charge light flashes if I press the power button.

I can still boot normally to Harmattan by pressing the meego logo.

Any idea what could be the source to the problem? Or should i just try again from the start?
remove your /sailfish dir and try extracting again. worked for me

And be patient.. There is no boot logo and booting will take some time

It should take a couple of minutes at most to boot, if it takes longer something is broken.
Probably you messed up extracting the FS image.

Removed the dir, tried extracting again, but this time (or I missed it the first time) it gave me "invalid tar magic error". So I downloaded the sailfish.tar.bz2 again, and extracted again, and now it boots to Sailfish. Thank you.

I hate the fact that if battery drained you had too force charging via flasher.

Is there anyway invoke flasher without reflash kernel/image etc?

I some kind of "diagnostic mode" in flasher where it just charging phone to 10% and then boot sailfishos normally.

You could invoke flasher to charge to 10% then cancel the flashing procedure and manually power off, then on the handset.

But no way without flasher.

Yes. That is what I heard, too.
Not yet the need to confirm it myself.
