Just upgraded my XA2, phone seems to work normal except Patchmanager. Anyone else having issues with PM?

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

I made the mistake of shutting down my tablet after it had been on a black screen for more than three hours. Now it's permanently stuck on the bootlogo. I've tried accessing recovery mode, but telnet says "telnet: telnet: bad port". Today is not a good day.

Ironically, if I had simply used 'version --dup' or olf's update script from OpenRepos, none of these problems would have happaned and this post would be talking about the changes in 4.0.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

Huge update indeed.
Went fine on XA2 and Tablet

XA2&10 AD upgrade to Android 9 is a good sign, isn't it?
I was guessing if the switch to lxc truly ment Jolla could now update the contained Android with less effort. Seems so?
Possibly they now find even more time to again revamp the notification system so it does not damn hide the status bar and a not so 90ish solution like drop shadows to give contrast :D

EDIT, Did not want to end negative. Digging through the changes, wow. Nice work Jolla. Much appreciated.

Yepp, can't apply patches at all.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

Same here with PM, can't access the Web Catalog either.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

I still did not updated and also can't access web catalog

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

PM should be fixed now

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

Hm, XMPP is dead. As I understand this is a conflict with telepathy TLS 1.0 and openssl 1.1?

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

I sold my Jolla TFO a while ago, but I always keep an eye on Sailfish. If I got it right, the new version brings only small changes under the hood, not any major functional changes, or UI changes that we were normally getting with each major update from SFOS 1 to 2 to 3... I think they really need to increase their efforts to get people to SFOS...

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

Something I do not understand:

- Jolla 1 is not supported anymore
- Why are btrfs tools updated again? There is no other device than Jolla1 able to work with btrfs (all the others do not have btrfs kernel modules)

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

I see patches in Patchmanager Web Catalog which are compatible with 4.01. But i can not apply these or any other patches. Is Patchmanager only not working for me or does anyone have the same problems?

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

The same here..

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

Me to... three, four.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

Well, Jolla handled this the same way with SFOS 2.0.0: just a polished SailfishOS 1.1.9
IMO this strategy is fine, but it obviously does not fulfil the expectation of a new major release providing "groundbreaking" changes.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

I noticed just one regression so far. (well probably not an actual regression, maybe an older library dropped from release); seems that Rena no longer draws/displays a map while recording a track... the positioning and track drawing to canvas works correctly though, it is just the map graphic that is missing.

It worked amazingly well up to now without rebuild through all the releases from the very first 1.x onwards. ☺

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

I've noticed quite a few. Notifications can no longer be dismissed individually. Patches no longer work. I did not hunt for bugs but those two stand out like a sore thumb.

On the positive side, my perenial problem I've been coplaining about for at least two years seems to have been resolved. Probably by accident, I doubt Jolla actually cared.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

They might have updated the package before they made the decision to drop J1? Maybe they were going to update it to just one 4.x release then drop it?
Or might be for people who like pain and format MicroSD cards as BTRFS?

Coincidentally my J1 hosed itself trying to upgrade to the final release by strangling itself with its own BTRFS metadata (a constant problem back when I was using it regularly) while updating. Booted with lots of dependency mismatches and no UI, now won't boot at all. I tried to resurrect it, and still perhaps could, but frankly I can't be bothered. It died the way it lived, with a self-immolatory filesystem.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

They can! Hit the button ones and swipe them away individually. ;)

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

And then people say Jolla's always adding more buttons and getting rid of swipes... The real problem is, at least to me, not whether or not they're using buttons or swipes, but that they aren't consistent about it, and the inconsistencies in general keep adding up with every new release. Why are the headings in the new Events view left-aligned even though they're right-aligned literally everywhere else? Who knows.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

The more "groundbreaking" stuff is in the releases *before* the major release most of the time - but under the hood.

Re: Sailfish OS Koli 4.0.1 for early access subscribers
 

You can: Try swiping it out, single or block. Long press for selection works too. But why is the notification line on top when scrolling down into tweets? That does not make sense...

Where is the global swipe away functionality?
