[Release notes] Tampella 5.0.0.55

you can try to update manually via command line. Oh, SSU does not work either so maybe reflashing is the only option?

Updating of 10 V to SFOS 5.0.0.55 went fine. Nice To be back with / In Tampella, too. :blush:

One strange thing:
Chum does not show any installed apps. Perhaps someone else with 10 V has noticed this, too.
Looking forward to progress in the development of the commercial version.

Not strange, completely normal and expected after a new release.
Use the settings of the Chum GUI to select the ‘4.6’ version until Chum receives the 5.0 repo config.

The Android apps on my C2 do not complain about missing Play Services anymore and just work - very nice, thank you!

The improved UI updater will not let me apply the update because of low battery.
Which is fine and cool.
But my battery is at 46%, maybe that’s a bit conservative?

Update went fine on C2, but 2 things makes me wonder:

  • Browser: creating a new tab with a search fails, no matter what search engine is selected. Exapmle: tiping “test” in the adress-bar tries to open “test.com

  • Although the C2 lacks a fingerprint-sensor in the settings (German “Hilfsprogramme”) there is the option to restart the fingerprint-sensor :slight_smile:

thanks jolla team

Update went fine on Xperia V. Xperia II yet to be tested. On Xperia V the overall experience after update improved. Phone seems to work smoother/faster. Love the new Five Two Ambience. Browser update is so BRILLIANT!!! 1000 thx to @flypig

Also love landscape home.

Is that setting for text size also new? Or did I only miss that on a previous update :joy:

Now I only need the license for App support and Camera/Fingerprint. Hopefully it’s just around the corner…

Indeed, it treats “foo bar” just as an (invalid) URL

Seaching something with harbour-pure-maps will crash the application:

Am I imagining or is the X10III faster now? It feels snappier and more responsive…or is it just the exitement that plays a trick on me… :laughing:

I usually find posts like this to be pure imagination; but this time i can’t help but agreeing with you. Though maybe we were just overdue a reboot.

The C2 feels smooth now, scrolling in native apps is way better (then again maybe the appsupport tracker just isn’t hogging the cpu as it used to even on XIII), but definitely a lot has improved since .43, sms/calls work reliably both ways now on 4g(nonvolte), it’s becoming mature (edit and I’m supper happy after 3 months in android world, for those who have hopes for xperia V, I’m sad to report even team A from sony is doing a terrible job, unlock by swiping up is unreliable, works 2/3 of the time, 1/3 you need to tap-hold swipe a bit down to trigger it, how can you screw something so simple as unlocking lock screen (and these are the higher paid guys shipping closed android to boot, not the aosp team), networking wlan+mobile and fallback is also screwed up on xperia vs cheapest samsung, it’s not looking good)

Updated to .55 and everything went great! :100:

I am very happy to see the mobile data fix for Android apps, even if there are some edge cases that need to be smoothed out around it. Thanks Sailors for that! I can actually try daily driving it now that I can take the device out into the world with more confidence that I can keep in touch with people or do simple things like buy an HSL ticket. :clap: Sorry Pixel, you’re back to being a development-specific device for now at least!

Neither my C2 nor my Sony Xperia 10V (Android 14) is showing an update option. (Language: Hungarian, Region: Germany—I’m not sure if that matters.)

Thank you for detailed description, but unfortunaly it does not work for me
@jovirkku: Do you have another tip to get the Mobile internet in AppSupport working?

Have you read this post above in the thread?

uhh, sms working stable? That’s promising. My family members almost kicked me out, also due to text prediction is not there with .43. To recover SMS, I was occasionally forced to shutdown, remove SIM, reboot, shutdown, insert SIM again, start again the C2. Sometimes only restart did the trick. I typically never use WLAN/WiFi, however tried once because of ÖFFI app & the know restrictions of .43, from where I then had really bad experience with internet connectivity, once WLAN was off. Also with .43 the mobile network behave occasionally strange. Indicated as connected. however Apps (e.g. browser, telegram) indicate internet not reachable. found a ping to a public server e.g. bahn.de can help to re-establish connection again. Just not always, then need to switch off mobile network , reboot, switch mobile network on again. If the mobile network is not turned off prio reboot it will not recover mobile network. Anyway, aren’t we in a kind of early stage? So - I’m looking forward for more experience with the next general ava. version. Staying with patience. Possibly I then can share my future observations from my C2 jolla armada in a structured way. Cheers…

Yes, I somehow overlooked this. Thank you! :relaxed:

Most of that seems huge overkill for SMS issue. Did you checked this thread?
