Hi,
I updated using my Linux computer. It went smoothly, except I got a small glitch: I started the process with :
$ ./flash_FP5_factory.sh
INFO: One Fairphone 5 in fastboot mode found (serial number: xx123456).

I started it again, and it worked fine the second time :
$ ./flash_FP5_factory.sh
...

So far, I’ve spotted 2 issues:
- Signal App : I installed it fine. Then I wanted to transfer my account from my temporary phone to the FP5. Apparently, Signal on the temporary phone was automatically updated on May 13, and even though the version number 7.6.2 is apparently the same on both the temporary phone and the FP5, it refuses to transfer my account to an “older version”. I disabled autoupdate on the temporary one, and I’m waiting for a new version to come in the App Lounge.
- Netflix refuses to start with a network error. I disabled the “hide my location” feature, but I still get the same error “Sorry we could not reach the Netflix service, please check Network Settings to connect to an available network and use Netflix (15001). (-93)”
Nice work !
Flavien.
