Does anyone have a backup of the original TOH-ambiences from Sailfish 1.0?

Hey,
if anyone here has backups of the original ambiences from the TOHs for the jolla1 please dm me…

afaik these ambiences/TOHs are:

  • The First One
  • Snow White
  • Poppy Red
  • Keira Black
  • Aloe
  • Nadeshiko Pink
  • Lime
  • Angry Birds Stella

the standard ambiences that came with the phone are welcome too (but i dont remember them well enough for listing them)

thanks :slight_smile:

Hmmm, I wonder whether using NFC to read the old ToH covers will install them on a current device? :smiley:

packaged ambience should be installed in /usr/share/ambience/*

After placing the packages in the right directory, you may find they don’t show up in the Top Menu immediately, for this, a nudge is often required;

systemctl --user restart ambienced

Yes!, there is a letter D on the end of ‘ambienced’

Obviously, if you install from RPM package, you can ignore the above.

If you were to install tohd on it, perhaps!

No, seemingly not.

Original TOH also had a tab on the inside, this is part of the TOH activation. The NFC app from Slava was the only app I could find that may have given a clue. But why bother anyway?, the TOH really only gave us an ambience, some of which were unusable due to poor color schemes making the clock/date almost unreadable.

so that has the stock stuff covered! thanks :slight_smile:
and damn, i totally forgot they changed the snow-white ambience early on

thank you! the leaves only 3 (Nadeshiko Pink, Lime, Angry Birds Stella) ambiences missing

hey edz, good to see you still lurking :slight_smile:

Full time lurker for now. Trapped indoors, a big vegetation fire has been burning for weeks, air outside is not breathable, so I’ve been on here more than usual :wink:

Necrobumping this because it was mentioned on one of the Telegram channels.

Perhaps the announcement of the “Jolla 2” (working title) phone triggered some nostalgia or so. (Especially with the resurrection of the “Poppy Red” wallpaper in the mockup.)

Anyway, old ambiences seem hard to get, but archive.org can come to the rescue for some. There’s bronken links given at TJC {Request}Jolla Lime Ambience Wallpaper or Ambience itself please , namely

Here’s archived links:

The file links are broken, but if you remove the ‘index.php’ part on the 404 page and try again, it’ll download.

Absolute legend, thank you and nephros :clap:

Could these be adapted for 64-bit models?

You can also unpack content and copy it to /usr/share/ if it will not installing it because of armv7 32Bit-File on 64Bit-System:

Full instructions:

  1. Unpack:
rpm2cpio ambience-name.rpm | cpio -idmv
  1. Copy:
cp -r unpacked_dir/ /usr/share/
  1. Restart Service:
systemctl --user restart ambienced

Edit @Edz: i see your post later, so see this as addition to your instructions.
