maemo.org - Talk - Porting Sailfish to N9

Does developer-mode include ssh and fingerterm? I would have thought so.

Also, would inclusion of /etc/passwd allow us to have root access in sailfish or would we run into boot issues? I will try it when I have the time as it would save having to chroot into harmattan just to gain root access on harmattan.

ssh yes but I cant login with password. or change pw damn.

IMHO, this would be piracy if it did. Alien Dalvik is 3rd party software and not part of the Sailfish OS.

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)

@Dave999 it should be solved in nemo kernel, not the sailfish itself :)

Yes, it will work just fine, you need to use the kernel on your sailfish /boot/ directory of course. (the default Nemo kernel)

However, I thought you had the simlock problem which prevents you from flashing a non-signed image, or did you manage to get that sorted out?

Thanks juiceme..
and no, i'm stuck with that and tried all :o

Also, has ubiboot.conf and the .cpio file been copied to Hartmattan's /home/user/MyDocs/boot?

I did all of that (exactly as described in the step-by-step tutorial)

Yes it can be set manually but I would like to discover what's stopping the UI from setting password

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)

Is the port usable for daily usage like sms, calling and surfing? :)

I'm using the N9 as my main phone and wanted to flash sailfish on it, if it is usable (no lag etc.)

And why isn't there a video on youtube of the port running on N9? :confused:

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)

I am lookinf for help, please.

I have followed the tutorial in this post and reflashed my phone, installed the open-mode and the kernel.

talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=90761&page=60

Since I have no linux computer, I use the windows method (Step W).

After installing the MOSLO kernel, allow it to repartition your device. Disconnect and boot into Harmattan.
Wa - Download Sailfish image of choice
Wb - In Harmattan, install developer mode if you haven't already. Connect the phone as "Mass Storage Device"
Wc - Copy vgrade-sailfish_proximity-workaround.tar.bz2 to the root of your MMC.
Wd - Disconnect the phone from the PC.
We - Launch Terminal on Harmattan (or SSH in)
devel-su
rootme #or your root pass
cd /home/user/MyDocs/
ls
# you should see all your MyDocs and vgrade-sailfish_proximity-workaround.tar.bz2

mkdir /sailfish
mount /dev/mmcblk0p4 /sailfish
time tar --numeric-owner -xvjf vgrade-sailfish_proximity-workaround.tar.bz2 -C /sailfish/
# this will take a while as its extracting on the handset
# now exit out or jump to Enable root SSH access on Sailfish, starting at "mount -o bind /proc /sailfish/proc"
Sync the disks and unmount all the filesystems:
"sync ; sync ; sync ; umount /media/*"

However, after i have finished all the commands and intructions, i still cannot get the sailfish work. The phone directly boot into the harmattan and no ubiboot is there.

Moreover, I find that there is nothing in my /media/ folder.
When I exeucute the last command in above :

"sync ; sync ; sync ; umount /media/*"

Erros occurs :
umount: can't umount /media/*: No such file or directory

Would anyone please help me? thz so much !

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)

hi there,

im currently following Nad's instructions (see http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=397)

im almost finished, now at step w.

what am i supposed to after running this command? "time tar --numeric-owner -xvjf vgrade-sailfish_proximity-workaround.tar.bz2 -C /sailfish/" ?

if i enter "mount -o bind /proc /sailfish/proc" afterwards i get the message the no such file or directory exists.

the next step "sync ; sync ; sync ; umount /media/*" also doesnt work.

thanks in advance for your help!

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)

Hi, I installed Sailfish successfully on my N9 using vgrade-sailfish_proximity-workaround.tar.bz2 image.

The OS is running quite OK, but I can't manage to install some apps from the Jolla store (Maps, Notes and other) and although the OS version is 1.0.1.10 the system is still offering update to 10.0.0-10-10.5 which I assumed as being an inferior version (is this correct?).
I also didn't managed to enable the developer mode, it fails like the download of the apps, so I'm still locked out of the OS.

Is the version I'm currently using the latest? How can I enable at list the developer-mode in this one?

Thanks!

But even with this the password is not taken in developer mode gui so you have the latest from me.

Others have been replacing password files in /etc to get access

Re: Porting Sailfish to N9 (or other)

Hi vgrade. Thanks for the info.

Just asking. Is there any chance to some how install the developer mode without re-generating a new Sailfish image? Maybe by chrooting into Harmattan?

Also, all these N9 Images, are they already using wayland backend in Sailfish?

Thanks!

do i need to install all the stuff from ubiboot? (nitroid, firefox, nemo etc)

after installing just ubiboot i cant flash the openmode kernel "APE algorithm has to be provided to flash all the subimages"

thanks

No need to install anything of those, you can choose what you want.

After you have installed ubiboot you do not need to flash kernels any more, you just load them with ubiboot. It is a boot loader, that is what it is used for :D

I get weird crackling randomly from the speakers.

Definitely odd.

I like the vgrade/SourenAraya version because it has audio, and it is at the new version.

I like the Vietnam mediafire image because it has the official splash screen, it has a terminal, and it lets me SSH in. But ~~it has no audio~~ and it is still the release version.

I like the original Nemo-to-Sailfish version that I installed myself because I swear the camera at least partly works on that version.

(for example, if you have PR1.3-005 of some country X, you cannot flash to country Y if highest release in country Y is PR1.3-003...)

You should ask in the "comprehensive flashing thread" about these things.

How do I find out the exact image I have? I already know it's not the chinese version of the firmware because it has facebook and twitter already integrated. I also know it's a chinese version because the phone has chinese written on the bottom near the speaker (right next to the wcdma)

Check what it says on settings/about dialog.
Under the version field, it says "PR1.3" and the firmware version is under that.
For the country variant, see what's written under the sim tray.
If the sim tray has been changed, or device flashed with non-original variant, you can find the variant code also in the 2d-barcode on the settings/about dialog. (it contains your IMEI and variant separated by semicolon)
