Up to a point, yes.
If you send your device for repair, then they might set up the baseline of your device to some later OS version.




There are lots of patches, but I don't think there are "unofficial versions" of SFOS. Alternative OS'es, yes; you can install Nemomobile/Glacier to it I think.




Everything can be modified.




ssh client is sufficent
Thank you very much, mate. It shows that you have a lot of experience! In this I lose myself a little:

1. Use dd, tar or rsync. How is it used?

2. How can I install Nemomobile / Glacier?

3. What is the difference between Nemomobile / Glacier and Sailfish?

4. Can I install the patches without formatting the phone?

5. Are there other programs to play with Jolla (besides ssh)?
