Argh, I know Jolla probably will hire new faces during the Autumn, but couldn’t (yet) find any open positions. Would be interesting to know where goes the first focuses with more hands Probably to Salo, probably stays busy for while, maybe customer service? Then hopefully some love for dev tools, harbour generally (+monetisation) and if we aim for the moon, Qt update
PS. super glad for the small update! Keep sailing on
Are we sure this is actually coming? An app developer said it was, but it’s been a long time. From what I found when I looked into it, the Qt version we’re stuck on hasn’t changed in years. If they do upgrade it, that would be great for developers.
@Jolla Since you ask, i’m raising my hand. I wonder what happened with my 3 phones, order 4472. I was supposed to pick them up at the venue but couldn’t make it which I gave notice about. Now, it’s about a month later and no shipping notice, in fact nothing. If you go by the pre-order numbers I assume it would be on its way?
I’m wondering how strict they are following the order numbers. I’m 48xx and haven’t received any info. When I’m looking in the community tracker there are similar orders (color, extras) to mine with a higher order number which are already shipped.
Edit: Two hours later I recieved my shipping Info. Now I’ll patiently wait for my new Phone to arrive
Hi all, I’m order #5514 and on the order page it says it’s in preparation since the first week of April. I was really hoping to receive it during August summer holidays but I think it won’t happen, will it?
I almost have to smile, because I’m having a case of déjà vu! Patient, pleading, and understanding customers, and a cell phone manufacturer that’s hard to get a hold of and occasionally spouts a few words of encouragement.
That’s exactly how the Jolla tablet saga dragged on for months. Well, even after ten years, I still haven’t received a tablet—or my money back. In that sense, it was my own stupidity to send another 600 euros for a smartphone.
Ah yes Walt is very interesting project kind of an unicorn. I am really curious if they manage to pull this off. It’s pretty big for degoogled android world. And if they mention Sailfish maybe they’d even make a native port at some point idk. Didn’t Jolla mention something like wanting to add NFC support to android layer ?
There is also the new attestation api that isn’t supposed to be dependent on Google developed by consortium led by Vola which is kind of interesting tho even tho it’s better than the one from Google it’s probably not the best approach. But i mean if companies accept it then it’s an improvement.
I think i vaguely remember they saying that they are aware it’s an old version and that they are planning to update it but that it is a lot of work and might take some time tho.
Looks like mine will be arriving tomorrow or on Monday, the shipment has finally moved from Germany after 5 days of sitting there (probably customs). Already preparing backups for movement.
Calm down, jesus. We are still at the beginning of the process, a little more than a month in since their first estimate. Hundreds, if not thousands of phones already shipped.
The Jolla crew has learnt from their mistakes. The tablets were a tragedy, and both the customers and jolla got screwed over. But this time almost everything is handled and organized differently.
This is already the second time I read you talking like that. I’d understand if we were multiple months, maybe a year behind schedule… but right now it’s just overdramatic.
Hi there! I’m Cole, the founder of Walt. I’m verrry new to this forum, so now exactly sure if I’m using the reply correctly. But if I can be any help here, let me know. I’m also available at Discord and cole@walt.is.
I ordered a Jolla Phone (12/256GB, October batch) on 10 July. Only the €99 down payment was charged. According to the confirmation email the remaining €650 was due around 31 July.
In my account on commerce.jolla.com the order now shows as “payment is overdue” with a remaining balance, but there is no option to pay it myself.
I already emailed shop@jolla.com a few days ago. Could someone from the team please confirm when the remaining amount will be collected, or if a payment link will be sent?
