I have tried this code (00000) as I’m in the same situation - did not work. It says “Incorrect security code”.

Compared to the J1 and C1 models the C2 is a huge leap forwards into getting serious phone hardware to the community. Yes, you can put the SailfishOS to some Volla phone and the like and save a few bucks, but in the end C2 is an investment into the future of SailfishOS and JollyBoys as a company. This is how I’ve seen my venture into supporting them. I want them to survive as company and have a choice of freedom not bound to either Apple or Google. I’ve trusted them since J1 and know that our dear sailors will work their ass off to get things right. They are a small company and it’s amazing what they had and for sure will deliver once the major issues of C2 are ironed out.

Everything successful so far:
- Connected the device (was turned off) to a charger and let it load up to 76 % before powering it on
- Ran the wizard (5 digit PIN code) and connected WLAN and my Jolla account successfully
- Downloaded the upgrade and installed it successfully
I did no further tests as my time is limitied this week, but will do this on the weekend. The only thing I recognized so far is that I cannot enable the development mode.

Exactly Same problem here i really hope there’s a fix
To completely honest I don’t see any other option besides returning the device back.
Since we can’t enter the flash mode, enable developer mode, ssh or anything else the device is essentially locked out. If there is some other way of “getting in” then I suppose that would be quite a massive backdoor and security vulnerability - which kinda gets agains the whole “SFOS secure and private OS” motto.
I really do hope there is an option that can bring this device to life from the comfort of my home because returning device means also paying for shipping, and that really turns me off from the whole thing.

Could it be possible to flash the phone with the Reeder android image and then Jolla releasing the flash tool to go back to Sailfish? Sort of to make sure the device is not defective and the hardware is all fine?

Same result for me. Device gets stuck only with correct code.
This is the point : if you could break-in at that point, without having to mess at the hardware level, it’d be a security design flaw.

If there is a fault with the device such that it has to be returned to Jolla, then they should be bearing the costs of shipping back the old device and shipping the replacement device, including paying any sales, VAT or import duty. Basically you should not be out of pocket due to a fault in a supplied product.
i have the same issue…
For me with ‘prefer 4G’ only outgoing calls and icoming sms work, on 3(.5)G both work both ways

C2 came in charged to 50%, charged to 70 % and booted it. Initial setup was shown, setting the code went ok but on next screen it but didn’t allow to click ‘connect’ button which did nothing. Had to skip network and therefore account setup. After setting the timezone, system started and initial tutorial was fired. Trying to connect to wifi as usual from settings but it said I should reboot. Before that I tried inserting the sim at this point, which was not discovered, so in the end I rebooted. The phone is stuck on endless boot after typing the correct code.

I find that the community adaptations are of higher quality than even the official Xperia adaptations. Like suspend doesn’t even work properly on some of the devices, fingerprint crashes out, modem etc. All of this is consistent.
but in the end C2 is an investment into the future of SailfishOS and JollyBoys as a company.
How about investing in community projects, the developers who work hard porting devices, and updating the dated software like the browser, how did they repay the community? By giving them a phone that they have to pay a lot of money for, of course!
I want them to survive as company and have a choice of freedom not bound to either Apple or Google.
As do I, the goal is still and will continue to be the same for all of us.
that our dear sailors will work their ass off to get things right.
By sending people bricked phones? There doesn’t seem to be much QA at Reeder seeing the amount of issues the community have been experiencing. I don’t blame Jolla too much on this.

Hi Rainmake, I did try security code 00000 (5 x 0) with a SIM card and without a SIM card inserted. The response everytime was “Incorrect security code”.
On power recycle and entering my added security code, it is accepted but then the wait state (the turning circle) for ever…
A pitty all the headache, the C2 harfware is lovely and robust.
I’m glad that there’s a number of users who can start testing it and Sailfish 5.

@rainemak are you aware if users will be able to flash the stock firmware by themselves?
