Sure, which would mean a service would then have to poll the bus. Generally, you need the burnt in ids of the devices you want to talk to (ie. have a driver) so, having some signal, nfc, you would need to poll at that point any way. So, a reboot should not be needed.
Okay. But the sense pin is a I3C feature, that I2C doesnât have. Thatâs why I asked.
I guess I will try to go to the next community meeting. Ask about it. Does the hardware problem make it fallback to I2C completely? Or does it just run at I2C speeds, while I3C features still work? Or the other way around, where we miss the I3C features, but we do have the speed. And if there is something with the features, what features work and what features donât.
Iâll try tomorrow to find room in the busy family life to attend to the community meeting. Or is there someone who will go in my place if I canât make it?

Regarding the whole I3C / I2C fix, did others understand the email from Jolla same way that they should start to receive the fixed boards in early August? Quote from email: â the TOH interface itself works but only on I2C mode for now and a revised sub-board will be applied in future batches from August onwards.â
Earlier if I remember correctly they were talking âby the end of Augustâ.
Edit. As Rainemak has liked my message, I assume it really means that Jolla has been able to push the delivery of fixed boards for earlier! This is very good news as it will results less phones in the wild with old I2C board = less hassle for Jolla to handle those = more focus for our beloved SFOS / Jolla phone

I think it is difficult to understand it any other way. However, the subboard is discussed here:

I cant Figur out what it means ppl there good their phone before they replace the board will they get it after send or
This is (better) discussed here:
I have gotten the idea that they will give people the choice to have Jolla send out a new subboard and let people change it themselves, or let people send in their phones for Jolla to change them.
Maybe you will find an answer there. If not, ask there. All the best

Honestly I have never seen so much ado about nothing by (I presume) grown adults.

I may have just found my new sig!
Of course, my âProcrastination Always Pays Off Nowâ motto also applies in this case by not getting in on too early a batch and just skipping the grief altogether. (As if I really thought Iâd get crackinâ on an I3C Other Half the instant my eagerly anticipated phone gets delivered in a few months . . .)

Any confirmation that the August batch device are shipped with I3C board?
Not from me at least, yesterday only I got the notification regarding the tracking number from Posti. I donât know how to verify that when the phone arrives?
Considering Jolla havenât posted about the fixed I3C boards arriving, itâs unlikely theyâve arrived or been installed into any newly shipped phones yet.

I did email them earlier that I would wait for the I3C board. The package is now shipped.
But as you said,no confirmation of it yet.

since it is now close to end of September, has the problem been fixed, are current phones shipped with the fixed board (and if yes maybe since when) ?
Thanks in advance
While waiting direct official answer this might help.

thanks for pointing me to the answer
since I havent found any update since the commnity meeting: is there a date when the revised board went into production phones and maybe a hint whether batch 3 phones have the revised board integrated at delivery ?
I got mine about 2 weeks ago (batch3) and in âSettings â About product â Device identifiersâ I see âTOH interface I3Câ

OK, it looks as though Jolla has now implemented this via software.
