<body><div>David,</div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you for that specific page which I hadn't seen before. However I did carry out those steps previously and click Save at the end. On my phone there appears to be a small bug with the generated password, i.e. that the Save button remains disabled and I have to delete then retype the last character of the password to enable the Save button. However I was not aware of the other steps on that page under the heading "Using Developer Mode" which I will try. The phone is a Jolla phone which was purchased with the Sailfish 3 image already on it. Before that I tried to download a Sailfish X image onto I think it was an Xperia phone (or whichever phone was recommended for Sailfish) but even though the phone was unlocked it turned out to be a variant that did not allow flashing of new images,</div><div><br /></div><div>Regards,</div><div><br /></div><div>Sahlan</div><div><br /></div>
