Hello fellow Linux bros,
I saw this thread today Sailfish OS 3.0.0 released to early adopters today
(https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=35592&st=0&#entry290497)
I have to keep type this up quick since it is literally 2:00 AM for me and I am recovering from recent sickness with work tomorrow- so I apologize for the formatting.
Also thanks to Depscribe and Yoram for the thread, it also had some useful information and links for me to get this done.
I was on SFOS 2.1.3.7 initially, but flashed the SFOS 2.1.4.14 build since I wanted to triple boot.
So these are the steps I performed from a fresh install on that build.
Step 0)
Enable early access to SFOS releases at https://account.jolla.com/ (https://account.jolla.com/)
(Requires Jolla account; Not sure if required but I enabled it)
Step 1)
I enabled SSH under developer options.
I used SSH for this next task.
ssh-keygen -f "/home/meganerd/.ssh/known_hosts" -R 192.168.2.15
ssh nemo@192.168.2.15
Step 2)
devel-su
vi /usr/share/ssu/features.d/adaptation-community-common.ini(Press 'i' to enter insert mode, modify text, ESC, then enter :wq)
change this line:
adaptation-community-common = http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/devel:/hw:/common/sailfish_latest_%(arch)/
to:
adaptation-community-common = http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/testing:/hw:/common/sailfishos_%(release)/
If do not change from devel: (state: unstable) to testing: (state: testing) you get trouble with your sensorfw (sensors not working, only a software problem). Before next step you can verify that the change is done with:
ssu lr
You must go to 2.2.0.29 before going to 3.x
So start the update to 2.2.0.29:
Step 3)
ssu re 2.2.0.29
ssu lr
pkcon refresh
version --dup
sync
reboot
(if you get "Fatal error: File ... not found" on you made a typo on the adaptations file)

After reboot, and attempting to boot into SFOS the device looks like it is in a powered off state.
But I can hear the USB sound from SFOS when I plug it in... so I SSH in to the device. This works.
(Eventually the screen started working so you can SSH or wait)

Step 4)
Modify these 2 files to the following using vi
/usr/share/ssu/features.d/adaptation-community-common.ini
[adaptation-community-common]
repos = adaptation-community-common
pattern = Feature adaptation community common
description = Common packages needed by community's HW adaptation
[repositories-release]
adaptation-community-common = http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/devel:/hw:/common/sailfish_latest_%(arch)/
/usr/share/ssu/features.d/adaptation-community.ini
[adaptation-community]
repos = adaptation-community
pattern = Feature community adaptation
description = Enable ssu for community ports
[repositories]
adaptation-community = http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/devel:/hw:/planet:/geminipda/sailfish_latest_%(arch)/
Step 5)
ssh nemo@192.168.2.15
ssu re 3.0.0.5
pkcon refresh
version --dup
sync
reboot
Finished! What now?
Patch orientation file: /usr/lib/qt5/qml/Sailfish/Silica/Page.qml
(You can use nano or vi; Install nano via "pkcon install nano")
$ devel-su
# cd /usr/lib/qt5/qml/Sailfish/Silica/
# cp Page.qml Page.orig.qml
# nano Page.qml
Modify this part:
property int _allowedOrientations: {
var allowed = allowedOrientations & __silica_applicationwindow_instance.allowedOrientations
if (!allowed) {
// No common supported orientations, let the page decide
allowed = allowedOrientations
}
return allowed
}
To this:
property int _allowedOrientations: {
var allowed = allowedOrientations & __silica_applicationwindow_instance.allowedOrientations
if (!allowed) {
// No common supported orientations, let the page decide
allowed = Orientation.LandscapeInverted
}
return Orientation.LandscapeInverted
}
Terminal with orientation patched: https://gitlab.com/Meganerd.eth/Sailfish-De...0-1.armv7hl.rpm (https://gitlab.com/Meganerd.eth/Sailfish-Development/blob/master/thumbterm-2.2.0-1.armv7hl.rpm)
Other problems I notice (currently)
* App drawer icons are too large and overlap after I patch orientation
* On/ESC key does not turn off display
* Wake from sleep is significantly slower than before (This is actually bothering me the most, sometimes its very slow to wake from sleep)
* USB tether not working
* WLAN0 hotspot not working (even on previous builds I could get it working with connmanctl from CLI)

So now I need to get to 3.0.0.0 or 3.0.0? (I am guessing the build is this)
UPDATE - I got stuck:
It is way past time for me to get to bed, unfortunately I will have to pickup on this tomorrow.
If anyone who was successful could help me figure out what I am doing wrong that would be awesome
I read that Yoram said he had to switch his adaptation layer to salfish_latest
so I modified the file back to its original state
(/usr/share/ssu/features.d/adaptation-community-common.ini)
Then attempted multiple releases but got an error from here
ssu re 3.0.0.0
ssu re 3.0.0
Both of them throwing me this error
Error: File '/repodata/repomd.xml' not found on medium 'http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/testing:/hw:/planet:/geminipda/sailfishos_3.0.0.0/'
I see that the output is still trying the first modified syntax even after updating the adaptation-community-common.ini file?
I took a brief look at the ssu command but no luck.
I have run out of time to get this going for tonight- sorry!

So it looks like the reason why the upgrade didn't work is there is no listing at http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/testi...net:/geminipda/ (http://repo.merproject.org/obs/nemo:/testing:/hw:/planet:/geminipda/) for 3.0.0.0

So I just did this on my lunch break- and unfortunately I cannot have my phone on me in our lab environment.
I will take a look next chance I get.
However just looking at the repo I do not see any mention of AlienDalvik RPM

So, for clearness, could someone post the content of both files: adaption-community.ini and adaption-community-common.ini, please.
I think I messed something up because of the similarity of the filenames and the wiki guide from togher.Jolla.com for gemini.
I am still on 2.2.0.29 and still get the error repomd.xml not found.
thank you!

Edit: I checked, I did not see any option for AlienDalvik in the Settings application. From my understanding if it was on here I should see it there.
You might check and see if it (and Microsoft Exchange) are available to you in the Jolla store.
Reason I bring it up is that those things are available usually only in paid purchases from Jolla -- such as I did with my Xperia X -- so it would be interesting if they were now available. Unless you have a paid Jolla subscription for your Gemini. And now that I think of it, I believe that I did have to download and install them.

I checked the Jolla store (Official Jolla app), I did not get any search results for it. I tried a few different queries.

Okay, that makes sense. Then the free -- "community" -- edition is the same as the Jolla edition, only no aliendalvik, MS exch., etc.
I should say that having used aliendalvik on my Xperia, I'm unimpressed, partly because I need it for ProtonMail's app and it does not offer alerts, even with every known hack, and partly because Googledroid apps are kind of icky.
Now that you have SFOS 3, what do you think of it? Like the new top menus?

The top menus seem like they have utility for sure. I am curious if I can customize it with more than the system options, like a specified app.
I am not noticing too much different off the bat. Certainly I appreciate it has security fixes.
Regarding the Android app alerts- I did see some mentioning of a hack to get that working but it was only a thread I read once while researching AlienDalvik- I am sure you know more about this than I and likely tried it.

There's an applet for the alerts, but it's kind of hit-and-miss, working with some applications and not working with others. The solution was hoped to be found in the new webkit, which was supposed to include notification support and therefore making a native web app for ProtonMail would have been relatively easy. But that improvement is apparently not there, either.
I suspect there will soon be top menu enhancements on OpenRepos.
The community meeting on IRC last week was pretty cranky as developers learned the amount of stuff that was promised for SFOS 3 but that isn't there. Jolla's rep said that no one ever said it would be in 3.0 and that all this good stuff will roll out over the life of SFOS 3, which to me is a little slippery on the part of Jolla.
My impression so far is that it includes improvements suitable for, say, a 2.3 upgrade but not a 3.0. Maybe you see things under the hood that justify it, but I haven't. Features are still lacking -- VoLTE, VoIP (important to me out in the country, where the cell signal doesn't reach; had wifi calling on my Blackberry since forever, but it hasn't come to SFOS yet, which is annoying). As to security, they still apparently haven't fixed the Mozilla security issue that everyone else fixed a year ago. The changelog and known issues list are disappointing. And there's a whiff of them concentrating on enterprise rather than end users, which is worrisome.

So it appears that you're device is still looking for the testing repo.
Your adaptation files are correct however.
Can you reboot then run and also post the output for the commands
ssu ur
ssu lr

Okay, that makes sense. Then the free -- "community" -- edition is the same as the Jolla edition, only no aliendalvik, MS exch., etc.
I should say that having used aliendalvik on my Xperia, I'm unimpressed, partly because I need it for ProtonMail's app and it does not offer alerts, even with every known hack, and partly because Googledroid apps are kind of icky.
Now that you have SFOS 3, what do you think of it? Like the new top menus?
You peaked my curiosity on this a bit. I see the repo URL. I am wondering what would happen if this string was replaced with a device that did support AlienDalvik?
By any chance could you give the output of the command
ssu lr

My final thought was maybe installing CA cert for BURP at /etc/pki/tls/certs/
so that I may see some of the traffic from the device to the repos.
More on adding CA cert see:
update-ca-trusthttps://together.jolla.com/question/2949/wh...ca-certificate/ (https://together.jolla.com/question/2949/where-can-i-add-a-system-ca-certificate/)
I don't know if Jolla would be upset if anything did come of this? I am just a curious guy

ok, finally got it. I have removed my adaption-community*.ini.backup files from features.d folder. Or it was just a question of time to get these early release...?
Download running...grrrrr , hope the network power issue is fixed !

Hello everyone, just wanted to let you all know I am flashing back to my old 2.x sailfish OS build.
I absolutely require tethering as it is my main Internet connection.
So I will have to stop my testing here.
If anyone is able to get the tethering to work let me know! If I can get it working I would probably flash back to 3.0.0.5 and continue testing and working on fixes.
My final thoughts:
I don't see much differences in SFOS 3.0.0.5. Seems very premature to even give it such a version jump honestly.
