Fairphone 3 and /e/OS

The thing is, not everyone who unlocked their bootloader had to enter a code, see

And as long as there is no code in the package, the support article even has some screenshots how to find the relevant numbers

As a proud owner of an FP2 running /e/OS how could I not cheer to that.

This is great news and another step on the path to a better world.

Way to go people, way to go.

I was asking the same question for those who already have a FP3 and want to proceed with /e/ flashing by themselves, will the bootloader will be locked after flashing 
 and I just noticed that at the end of the flashing process :


The bolded text make me fell that it has been added or at least highlighted to avoid to answer to this question again and again 
 :smile:
/e/ is definitively a must have :ok_hand:

Bonjour Alexis,
J’ai achetĂ© un Fairphone 3 en dĂ©cembre, puisqu’il ne devait y avoir que “quelques semaine” pour avoir un autre OS que Google. 6 mois aprĂšs, e/OS arrive (youpi) et je me jette sur le tuto pour l’installer. Le bootloader est dĂ©verrouillĂ©, l’EOM et l’USB aussi, mais l’ordi (un surface pro 4) ne le reconnait pas.
Ensuite, quand on me demande de taper adb device, oĂč dois je le faire ?
le fairphone n’a jamais fonctionnĂ©, il n’a pas de sim (elle est prĂȘte mais pas dans le tĂ©lĂ©phone) je n’aime vraiment pas GOOGLE.
Merci d’avance
Eric

Au secours!

Bon jour, @rico

Welcome to /e/Land,
moi non plus j’aime pas Gogol,

Voici un How To trÚs clair et trÚs détaillé
pour installer/e/OS sur le FairPhone 3
avec plein de super photos, merci @Chimpthepimp

Édit :
le schmylblique a Ă©tĂ© Ă©cris pour Minux, mais ça change pas grand chose, pour les autres OS, Ă  la place du “terminal”, il faut simplement utiliser :
"Invite de commande" sous Windobe,
et "console" sous MaQueue.

Bienvenu rico,
J’ai flashĂ© /e/ Ă  partir d’Ubuntu, je ne pourrai donc pas ĂȘtre d’une aide pour la procĂ©dure de ton OS mais “adb devices” est logiquement une command line Ă  saisir dans le terminal (je ne suis pas expert). Ce topic est pour annoncer l’arrivĂ©e de /e/ sur Fairphone 3 je t’encourage Ă  crĂ©er un Topic dans la partie Francophone, je pense que tu trouveras des gens prĂȘts Ă  t’aider.

I have ordered my fairphone 3 from fairphone directly more than three weeks ago now and still haven’t received it. I don’t know if it would be any faster ordering from /e/.

I also ordered a Fairphone 3 more than a month ago directly from Fairphone and received nothing either.

We will place additional orders very soon.

Hi Alexis,

My finger is above the ‘enter’-button, this is how close I am to ordering a Fairphone3.

But I have a bit of a problem in decision taking.

I live in Amsterdam. When I scream the people over at Fairphone can hear me. They sell it for 450,- euro.I have to flash the phone myself but that’s no problem. Done it before, will do it again. I appreciate Fairphone to the max.

Or:

I pay 479,- euro to /e/ and receive a pre-installed Fairphone3 and I hope that I support /e/ by buying it from them. I love beautiful /e/ also and like to support them.

I prefer the latter option.

But there is one drawback with that option and that is that Fairphone offers FREE earphones (49,- euro) and /e/ doesn’t.

So, Alexis, do you offer the FREE earphones too?

Grtz, sassonie

I third option might be to buy from Fairphone “across the street” and donate to /e/ foundation to support them.
