XA2 4.4 flashed
Don’t know yet if this is a bug or only me.
I booted in recovery mode (fastboot boot hybris-recovery.img)
Pressed “5” to launch sshd
When trying to log in (ssh root@10.42.66.66) from another terminal, the password (recovery) is not accepted.
hybris-recovery.img from SFOS_4.3.0.15 works though.
Did someone try this?
Or did nobody have the same issue?
Hi.
Please, did you happen to find a solution to this, by any chance?
I am stuck in recovery mode right now, but I have an Xperia 10 III and 4.4.0.64 was the first release for it (therefore I am afraid I do not have previous releases to go grab a recovery image).
Thank you.
I’m sorry, I’ll only be able to share in september as I’ll not be home until that.
Someone else maybe?
Or try to contact @Jolla as it seems to be a bug, they could perhaps provide a link to dl sth.
Or maybe providing tje correct password would be enough?
Eh, if it only were so easy! 
you can work around this by using telnet to add a key to /root/.ssh/authorized_keys. Something along the lines of:
mkdir /root/.ssh
chmod 600 /root/.ssh
echo "<your key>" > /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
exit
afterwards select run sshd and it should work
Seems the hybris-recovery.img does not actually have the root password be “recovery” as it claims. I just tried on a 10 II with 4.5.0.25 and the ssh login did not work.
My workaround was to start a shell and “passwd” where i would choose my password. And after that “/usr/sbin/sshd”. Now i know the password and the connection works.
I think we have a long standing BUG here that nobody cared to fix. The sshd menu entry in the recovery images is broken because it mentions a password which does not actually work.
