Sadly, none of my 5 SFOS phones are daily drivers, that’s an iPhone 14 at the moment, but I live in hope ![]()
Usually cache of browser, angelfish, Quickddit (if links are opened in webview), thumbnails of pictures takes hundreds of MB or even more depends on usage.
Well, I have 5x working SFOS phones compared to 1x IOS phone, so SFOS is well ahead on numbers if nothing else…
Maybe., but that is mostly irrelevant wrt. updates.
The only thing that counts is space on the root filesystem/partition.
Tried it too - update went smooth and phone runs without issues so far.
Thank you, sailors!
Edit: tried it on C2 and Xperia 10 iii. Both updates are fine. Looking forward to EA now
Funny, same numbers here.
Big difference: i do not use the iPhoe anymore (since a couple of years now) although I get new iPhone every two years.
Xperia 10 ii and Xperia 10 iii are my daily drivers atm, hoping to replace one of them by J2 soon
I’m not a dev but happened to have a 10 II with a 10 GB rootfs…, after update 3,6 GB in use, 6,5 free.
The XA2 is still my main phone. I use Kuri, Pure Maps and OSM Scout Server so no update yet. I’ll do it with zypper dup and move big files out of the way as needed - no uninstalls.
The update initially went well, but I don’t have internet access in any of the Sailfish apps. However, everything works perfectly in my Android apps. I have a C2.
I only can recommend to take this advice serious, my Xperia 10 III needed a fresh install after me ignoring it…
I’ve restarted everything, checked if I have any active DNS servers, and removed AAS.It doesn’t work
my xperia 10 III has about 1GB free storage.
- /opt 1.7GB mainly appsupport (1.1GB rootfs, 0.6GB system.img)
- /usr 2.2GB
- 203.3M usr/share/harbour-sailpipe
- 99.1M usr/share/stellarium
- 72.6M usr/share/harbour-sshazam
Removing sailpipe, stellarium, and sshazam will free ~370MB will be a struggle finding the rest 150MB from apps only.
Is it possible to temporarily move /opt/appsupport/system.img to /home for the update?
Yes. Disable AppSupport first.
The previous AppSupport 13 update came with a nasty surprise: it was downloaded to rootfs instead of home, unpacked to rootfs, installed to rootfs and only then the old system.img would be deleted.
My XA2 has 247 MB free so I need to delete the swapfile, move AppSupport and the huge mozilla (libxul?) file out of the way and zypper dup because it doesn’t check for disk space and it pauses on errors - having 20 years of Linux experience helps. And never reboot or shut down an unstable system - it can be fixed when it’s running.
Hm. I just tried this, but without doing a system update:
mv /opt/appsupport/system.img /home/- reboot
mv /home/system.img /opt/appsupport/- start appsupport, check an app or two
=> Success
Who knows what could go wrong here during a system update… be prepared to boot into recovery before you do this. Also, I did this in the terminal, as root.
I believe the Sailfish connection problem is due to a lack of connection technologies. When I type `conmanctl tehnologias` in the terminal, I get the error message “no found”. I don’t know the solution.
Edit: However, AAS still has a connection
Just updated my C2. WLAN works, mobile data untested.
I just fixed it. The solution :
rm /etc/resolv.conf
ln -s /run/connman/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf
systemctl restart connman
Had you by any chance messed with this yourself beforehand - or how could it break?
AFAIK this file should be managed by systemd-resolved now.
On my system it’s
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Apr 30 06:58 /etc/resolv.conf -> ../run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf
It may have been a while ago, but everything was fine before the update.
