| sebsebseb | hi | 13:15 |
|---|---|---|
| sebsebseb | anyone around? | 13:15 |
| r0kk3rz | definitely not | 13:16 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: hi | 13:16 |
| sebsebseb | right so | 13:16 |
| sebsebseb | this is over due, but | 13:16 |
| sebsebseb | or in a way over due but | 13:16 |
| sebsebseb | yes I have had a Sony Xperia X with Android on it for quite a few months now, bought to put Salifhs OS on it | 13:17 |
| sebsebseb | I wonder if I can still get Salifhsh X with the money Jolla owes me the second half of the refund of the tablet that never got ! | 13:17 |
| r0kk3rz | i would expect so | 13:18 |
| sebsebseb | how ? | 13:18 |
| r0kk3rz | iirc a voucher/code was sent to tablet backers for a discounted price or something like that | 13:18 |
| sebsebseb | yes it was motnhs ago in like janurary or something | 13:19 |
| r0kk3rz | maybe you had to register | 13:19 |
| sebsebseb | but not sure where those emails are quite, plus i don't knw if that will still apply | 13:19 |
| sebsebseb | yes I didn't do anything with that so | 13:19 |
| r0kk3rz | sailfish x is still being sold, and if you havent been refunded yet then they still owe you | 13:19 |
| r0kk3rz | i see no particular reason to put an expiry date on that offer | 13:19 |
| sebsebseb | hmm maybe i should try and email jolla about it too | 13:20 |
| r0kk3rz | that would be a good idea | 13:20 |
| sebsebseb | you got a good address for that ? | 13:20 |
| r0kk3rz | https://jolla.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=764007 | 13:22 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: and it has a few options including jolla round 2 etc | 13:25 |
| sebsebseb | on a side note, I think can re flash using linux now as well, not just windows ? | 13:26 |
| r0kk3rz | yes, provided you can OTA all the way to latest android before unlocking the bootloader | 13:27 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: oh do you have to do that ? or is that only if using linux to re flash ? | 13:27 |
| r0kk3rz | then everything can be flashed properly with fastboot on linux | 13:27 |
| sebsebseb | also that phone uhmm actsually has something that shoudn't be on it | 13:27 |
| sebsebseb | some adware or something | 13:27 |
| Elleo | ;1 | 13:28 |
| Elleo | oops | 13:28 |
| sebsebseb | since had some issues getting security updates installe into the android | 13:28 |
| r0kk3rz | what do you mean? | 13:28 |
| sebsebseb | but hey it's meant to be getting re flashed right | 13:28 |
| sebsebseb | I just know in my mind, it may generally be not that secure currently since what I just put | 13:28 |
| r0kk3rz | sony put something in the latest version which allows flashing of the OEM partition | 13:29 |
| r0kk3rz | which we use | 13:29 |
| * sebsebseb should have maybe re set email passwords and such too already really, but hadn't, it's been a few weeks already | 13:29 | |
| r0kk3rz | so either you do that through OTA, or you need to use their EMMA flashing tool on windows | 13:29 |
| sebsebseb | I was looking before, at like progrms that couldback up android texts and such, but yeah want to back up the texts, and photos and v ideos | 13:30 |
| sebsebseb | the rest can go | 13:30 |
| sebsebseb | from arnod | 13:30 |
| sebsebseb | android first too | 13:30 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: what's the emma falshign tool ? | 13:31 |
| r0kk3rz | a tool from sony that flashes the phone | 13:32 |
| sebsebseb | so is using windows the easier way to do it really | 13:32 |
| sebsebseb | ? | 13:32 |
| sebsebseb | I guess so ? | 13:32 |
| r0kk3rz | imo the OTA way is the easiest, but perhaps the slowest | 13:32 |
| r0kk3rz | but once you unlock the bootloader, you wont get OTA | 13:33 |
| sebsebseb | maybe my android is infected or sort of thing see above | 13:34 |
| sebsebseb | I could do a factory re set of android first or something | 13:34 |
| r0kk3rz | if you're worried about that, then nuke it with the EMMA sony tool | 13:34 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: that's the way to do it from windows ? | 13:38 |
| sebsebseb | its probably just adware or something | 13:38 |
| sebsebseb | comes up with spammy stuff | 13:38 |
| sebsebseb | says its from like the dchrome browser app and that's not oepn etc | 13:38 |
| r0kk3rz | the sailfish x image does come with instructions on what to do | 13:39 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: but yes I want to start nice and clean with salifish os | 13:40 |
| sebsebseb | on it | 13:40 |
| r0kk3rz | then flash it first with the emma tool (which unfortunately is windows only) | 13:41 |
| sebsebseb | that's the like | 13:45 |
| sebsebseb | wiping tool | 13:45 |
| sebsebseb | plus boot loader change ? | 13:45 |
| r0kk3rz | yeah | 13:45 |
| r0kk3rz | more or less, it does fairly low level flashing operations using the qcom interface | 13:45 |
| sebsebseb | then can contineu re flashing from windows or go to linux | 13:47 |
| sebsebseb | yes this is over due | 13:48 |
| sebsebseb | back some stuff off android first htough | 13:48 |
| r0kk3rz | you can flash on linux if you prefer | 13:54 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: how | 13:55 |
| r0kk3rz | ultimately its just a script that wraps fastboot | 13:55 |
| r0kk3rz | you follow the instructions, thats how | 13:55 |
| sebsebseb | r0kk3rz: yeah I will have a go at re flashing but got som stuff to take off phone first from android etc | 14:04 |
| sebsebseb | also so hot today again uh ! | 14:04 |
