[solved] Xperia X 4.3.0.15, upgrade to 4.4.0.58 failed

If I try to upgrade via System settings I’ll get the message that the „system cannot check the size oft he upgrade“. The message gets even worse if I try the following in the terminal:

  1. devel-su
  2. ssu release 4.4.0.58
  3. version –dup
    „This request will break your device. Upgrade not complete.“

There is also OLF’s sfos-upgrade 4.4.0.58 which throws similar messages. Any help appreciated!

Thanks for your advice. Everything is fine. The only message I got while sfos-upgrade 4.3.0.15 is „-Stopping osupdate-check.timer“ and „NO UPDATES FOUND. Try again later.“

NB: Yes, I did post_sfos-upgrade after 4.3.0.15 samegrade and no updates found by the system.

Same here. And increasing the root partition size did not solve the problem, as it seems to have done in https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/updating-problem-with-store/6629/3

Just a wild guess, since I always did
pkcon refresh
before
version -dup
…does this changes anything in your case?

I did - nothing changed. So I had to go for a full reset and went thru all the updates via terminal commands. Finally I am on 4.4.0.58 with many quirks.

@oedelmeier Did you mark this as a solution? I don’t think reflashing or factory reset is a proper solution to problems in determining the size of the update.

My ~/.cache/sailfish-osupdateservice/os-info contains lines

[General]
version=4.4.0.58
codeName=Vanha Rauma
summary=Vanha Ra....van Niftrik
cover= ....
lastChecked=1647708179317
downloadSize=-1
installSize=-1
removeSize=-1
downloaded=false
packagesToRemove=

-1 is clearly not a valid size. But what causes this?

Of the apps mentioned in the release notes that might cause problems, I don’t have any. Patchmanager3 is installed, but the patches should not affect updating.

I did in random order few loops of
-ssu release 4.3.0.15 && version --dup
-ssu release 4.4.0.58 && version --dup
-sfos-upgrade (from openrepos)
-pkcon refresh
with no success.
Then I run post_sfos-upgrade, which loosened something and installed 734 packages.

Repeating again version --dup did nothing, zypper dup complained that patterns-sailfish-device-adaptation-f512x-1.3.27-1.5.1.jolla.armv7hl requires ofono-ril-plugin but nothing provides it. I desided to cancel updating this package.
Rebooted to 4.4.0.58 without problems (and run post_sfos-upgrade).

I don’t have sim in this phone, so haven’t tried calling, but everything else seems to work, patchmanager3 included.
