In the end I connected it again to USB and rebooted using fastboot reboot . That worked well.

God bless you.

Thank you @rainemak for addressing this, but unfortunately now the footnote 4 is broken and footnote 5 is missing.

My suggestion how to fix this: Alter
[4] Both Android 11 and Android 12 are compatible with Sailfish. However, we recommend using Android 11, so select Android baseband 59.1.A.x.y if available.

[5] Both Android 11 and Android 12 are compatible with Sailfish. However, we still recommend using Android 11, so select Android baseband 62.0.A.x.y if available.
and append a [5] to the second column of the Xperia 10 III entry.

Sorry for the offtop (I would’ve sent you a PM but can’t find how it’s done on this platform), but could you please tell me if there is an updated version of your (awesome) XPeria partitioning guide? I’m interested in whether anything changed WRT XPeria 10 III and/or Vanha Rauma.

Reading often helps, here the “P.S.” of this guide at TJC. :wink:
olf / SailfishX on Xperias · GitLab

tnx for the dox, this seems to not miss important steps at the very beginning of the use that may affect the success of installing sfos…)

I wish I’ve known this dox when I started to try installing sfos to xperia 10 iii a week ago. (still not able to get pass fastboot oem unlock phase - have spent couple of hours today to figure out what to do next…)

so here I am again … my Sony Xperia 10 III unfortunately sometimes stays silent and doesn’t ring when somebody calls me … has anyone else of you experienced something like that?

I was thinking of maybe trying to flash it with the latest version of Sailfish … would the instructions found at → How to install Sailfish X on Xperia™ 10 III on Linux - Jolla ← apply here as well? I originally flashed my device using a Windows computer …

also … due to currently / still not having a memory card I cannot install any updates yet, things have failed last time and I lost all the data, contacts, pictures, etc I had unfortunately.

I would use this automatic script and set it to 2 minutes: The sounds of incoming calls, SMS, notifications disappear - #17 by comsorg

To change the systemd timer to run every two minutes, you can modify the OnCalendar parameter as follows:

[Timer]
OnCalendar=*:0/2

This will run the timer at every 0, 2, 4, 6… minutes.
