Hi, I started to download 4.5.0.16 several times in the last 30 minutes. I can see no progress, even in the online-monitoring. I assume, too many people are trying this at the moment.
Did 4.5 leave Early Release? There seem to be more problems tan usual.
Yes. See at the first post of this subject.
What does the following involve?
Audio functions of Android apps improved (application-specific audio streams, audio volume is consistent across reboots, etc)
I was hoping that would fix this issue I was having that would stop the media player when a sound plays in an Android app (the media player doesn’t start back after the sound is done playing).
Is this related in any way to the improvement of audio functions of Android apps?
Or could I fix this issue with “application-specific audio streams”?
Update got stuck on download. Restarted. Download started again listing tons of packages that I should remove before update… never heared of them… I don’t use openrepos. Update install started. Update got stuck on sailfish logo with bar reaching the S letter of the „OS“ at the end. Stil there after 15 min. What to do?
Xperia 10 II updating on batterylife…
After 30 min no changes. Plugged in charger.
Force turn off… system damaged. Does not start further than security code. Reflashing… :-(((( damn!
Xperia 10 II update = went smooth as silk
Applies to my 10 iii too
During download, I saw the message:
the listed packages may cause problems
DeadBeef Silica
Chum GUI
textractor
2 packs related to DeadBeef packs
removed packages from Storeman
As I said during the download, I removed the mentioned packages that were mentioned that can do problems.
Xperia 10 III update = went smooth as silk
The installation rebooted itself at the end. I didn’t have to do any reboot!
At the weekend I will do an reinstallation. I did not found any other procedures to solve the problem.
Battery ageing protection implemented into “Settings > System > Battery”. This is to avoid the wear out of the battery. The user can set a limit (e.g. 90%) where the charging is stopped.
This is a good feature. No need for Battery Buddy anymore, i guess?
If you have backed up the file $HOME/.config/lipstick/applications.menu, you can find the folders and exact order for each application (that’s what I used to put mine back in place).
I wish i knew this. App grid was a mess after the update. After a while of rearranging i’m pretty sure some of the app icons are gone. (Yes, i waited for App Support to do it’s thing.) At least couple of MicroG related are not there anymore (Fakestore for example, and some other, can’t remember what). Though they are still installed according to Fdroid. And i’m not really sure if there are more missing. Never expected this to happen.
Also MicroG isn’t working properly anymore. Bunch of applications (like banking etc.) are nagging about missing Google Play Services. Signature spoofing seems to be working, and i guess most of the settings are properly set.
This makes me want to reflash the phone and start all over again. With no guarantee it’ll make any difference.
Nevertheless no other major complaints about updating. It did stuck at the 100% point of the progress bar, and i did have to perform forced power off.
I guess this is a good update, but holy crap if i have to spend hours and hours of reinstalling and configuring all the apps again.
Have you seen this post? It can be helpful.
or
I hope this solves your problem
Same with the Xperia 10ii. Also did then that keycombination to reboot. After reboot it was the 4.5 with appearantly no issues.
Started the android layer manually (i programmed it to not autostart on boot) took about a minute to start.
Everything look great. Starting to love Sailfish OS more and more.
Thanks Jolla!
When I activate teh newly introduced volume bar on my XA2 Ultra, the distance between the ring tone volume bar and the new volume bar is bigger than the distance between the brightness bar and the ring tone volume bar. Maybe this can be improved in the future, because it looks a bit sluggish…
In total very nice update!
State of VoLTE?
After upgrading, i can see the VoLTE still being marked as beta. Which is fine, I guess, but given the Release notes do not mention VoLTE I’m wondering if anything has been done here?
In case it’s relevant: It’s not working for me - same as before upgrading to 4.5.0.16 - and I have no idea how to further debug/help with this. Provider is Telekom in Germany, the configuration files seem to make sense but I’m not getting anything even after keeping it enabled for hours, it just keeps blinking.
Thanks for 4.5.0.16.
Update process went through without problems on my X 10 II.
There was only one strange thing.
Yesterday I used threema for the first time again and noticed that all media files were gone.
In the chats there were only placeholders, even if I clicked on media overview in the menu.
Today I wanted to write a bug report, but all media files were visible again. Strange. I hope it stays like this.
Updated my Xperia 10 and the only problem was the phone didn’t restart automatically after the progress bar was full (yes, I waited like half an hour) and the phone didn’t register power button presses so I had to use the Vol Up + Power to restart the phone.
After couple of minutes Android apps came back to the app grid and to my horror they didn’t return to their previous places but at the end of the grid list and I had to visualise my muscle memory to get them to mostly right places.
After update banking apps complained about phone not supporting Google Play Services and either still worked or restarted when trying to login, but found out in other threads in this forum that updating FakeStore to version 0.1.0 (was 0.0.2 and F-Droid didn’t offer the update even when trying to refresh the repo, had to manually go to the FakeStore and update it) everything worked just like in the past without any nagging.
