You were right - update to Sailfish 2 took a while, but went without an apparent hitch.

Cheers.

It was mosen's suggestion, not mine. And sorry it didn't work.

I am only repeating "Best of TJC" in hope it helps.
Also sorry it did not in your case!

Not wanting you to do a factory-reset just to try out but that would be my last attempt before giving up and calling HW fault.

Yes factory reset is my last option but this is not a HW fault, is after 1.1.9 with a correct update, people is talking about a pre update for 2.0 called eineheminlampi too, ill wait to this update and see.

Thank you for your interest.

It does not usually happen in the shirt pocket, but is guaranteed to happen in the trousers pocket. So I assume vibrations caused by walking (or maybe flexing) have something to do with it. I cleaned the contacts again and as a last resort, will try the paper to prop up the battery. If that does not help, then goodbye Jolla, I cannot afford to have a phone I cannot rely on.

I am a little bit confused: to me it sounds normal that if the phone reboots, it will be "stuck" on enter SIM card pin, because that is a normal security check after every reboot (provided you have SIM card pin check enabled)

Reboots due to battery loose may be fixed by the paper prop up. It worked pretty well for me. Polar Cell battery however did not require this yet as it seems to fit just a little bit tighter.

If you get SIM card pin requests when phone is not rebooted:
Is your phone from end of 2013 batch?
Did you ever have your phone repaired for sim holder issue?
If so you better have it repaired for SIM holder issue first before ditching it.

After cleaning the contacts I put a small drop of contact fluid on each of them. I also gently touched the pins (on the phone) several times with a toothpick to ensure the movement is free. I did not experienced any reboot since ages (read: lots of months).
Note that I do not use the paper trick any more.

@ste-phan, sorry if I confused you. What I meant to say, who knows how many times the phone silently rebooted in my pocket before. If you keep your home screen clean, and I usually do, then you may not even notice. Only now that I set up a SIM card PIN, the reboots are more visible because of that extra screen.

@Jordi
I was also plagued by frequent reboots, but after moving the pins up-down several times it is now gone since several months!
