hallynlatest sailfish x. trying to boot back into fastboot , turned off, hold down volume up, plug into usb.  but 'fastboot devices' never finds it.05:20
hallynis that expected?05:21
Jopeis it in fastboot mode?05:22
hallynapart from 'fastboot devices' finding it, how do i tell?05:22
hallynit doesn't seem to be - just shows me a charging icon05:23
Jopethen it is not in fastboot mode05:23
Jopeit depends on the make of phone how it shows up05:23
Jopesony for example only has a LED on05:23
Jopemany others actually say fastboot05:23
hallynyeah the sailfish docs say blue led, he led i kinda blue kinda white, i'm not good with color05:23
hallynbut, is there anything i need to do while booted into sailfish to allow it to drop into fastboot mode?05:24
Jopeshouldn't need to05:30
r0kk3rzit should be a fairly deep blue05:55
* pahartik has had "Sailfish X" up for 238 days, now probably has to reboot because mobile network data roaming might start to work after that10:07
* pahartik assumes that there are no other options than "reboot", as "systemctl restart ofono" did not help10:38
ender|i had trouble receiving SMS messages, rebooting several times (and swapping SIM cards) did not help, but for some reason systemctl restart ofono fixed the problem. i'll never understand how that can happen11:01
* pahartik did not get any help from "reboot", mobile network still unreachable13:09
tevei'd to re-flash my xpx with android for getting reasonable roaming network behaviour13:12
* pahartik moves SIM to mobile network modem and uses "Sony Xperia X" just as camera and satellite positioning recorder13:20

hallynso, has anyone here had sailfish x on xperia x and gotten boot-into-fastboot to work, to reflash sailfish or some other os?18:09
r0kk3rzthe key combination should work18:12
r0kk3rzi dont think theres anything you can set before reboot to do it18:13
*** Colgate_ is now known as Colgate18:15
hallynsigh.18:21
hallynthanks.  sadly key combination does not work :(18:21
r0kk3rzsounds weird18:23
malhallyn: what key combination do you try?18:24
r0kk3rzwhat about flash mode combo?18:24
hallynmal: vol-up + usb plug-in;  vol-down + usb plug-in;  and vol-up+vol-down+power, release vol-down when screen goes out18:25
malhmm, those should work18:27
malat least the first two18:27
malnot sure about last ones18:27
hallynThe last one just rebooted me right back into sailfish18:29
hallynwondering whether doing a device reset from settings would help, but it seems unlikely18:30
malvol-up + usb plug-in should boot to fastboot mode18:36
maldid you keep vol-up pressed long enough?18:37
hallyni think so.  kept it pressed until it showed me the picture of a power plug and 100%18:40
malhallyn: and you first pressed vol-up while device was off before plugging usb cable and kept it pressed?19:30
hallynyup19:30
malhmm, very strange19:31
hallyn:(19:31
malhallyn: why do you want to get to fastboot?19:34
hallynto try flashing a different os19:34
maljust to be sure it's not in some odd state press volume up and power button for a while until device vibrates twice19:36
hallynthx will try19:43
malthat is a force shutdown of the device19:46
hallynno go :(  it's a mystery!21:40
malhallyn: does volume up button work otherwise?21:52
hallynyeah22:02
