The Jolla Tablet is, at this point, only held together by a few lines of bug-free code. Pretty much everything else is broken in at least two ways. WiFi not working is a very common issue and rebooting endlessly occasionally solves it. Other common problems are refusing to go past the boot logos (rebooting endlessly occasionally lets you through), as well as telling you you’ve used up all of your lock code attempts (and thus locking you out of the tablet) when you haven’t even entered the lock code yet. Screenshots haven’t worked at all for five years and counting. I also noticed that, somehow, the battery consumption has now become so horrific that it drains all the way from 100% to 0% in only six hours, with the screen turned off, no applications running and no synchronisation services active!
It looks like Jolla will never fix any more Jolla Tablet bugs, except by accident, like the GPS fix in 4.5. All we can do is keep rebooting, rebooting and rebooting until we get arthritis from holding the power button all day long, until we finally manage to get into a somewhat working system to install the latest update and again be disappointed that nothing was fixed and even more extreme bugs were added. Surely someone at Jolla must still have a Jolla Tablet they keep up to date… But logic dictates that when Sailfish 5.0 is released (presumably the next update, or the one after), Jolla will simultaneously drop support for the devices on older kernels - Jolla C, Jolla Tablet and Xperia X.
