Device name: G903F (Europe)
Device CodeName: s5neolte
Version of /e/OS existed previously: e-1.14-Q-20230816320942-dev-s5neolte
Version of /e/OS after upgrade to ‘unofficial’ /e/OS-R: e-1.15-R-20230917-UNOFFICIAL-s5neolte by @ronnz98

The fantastic @ronnz98 has successfully built an upgrade from ‘official’ /e/OS-Q to ‘unofficial’ /e/OS-R via ‘repo way’.

@make-nz

WiFi, Murena sync, notes… all working
Big Thanks

I’ve also freshly installed it and confirm the positive experience of @make-nz.

/e/ dev team, please consider transforming Galaxy S5 Neo (s5neolte) to ‘official’ status.

LG G5 INT ‘h850’

Vendor Name: LG
Device name: G5
Device CodeName: h850
Version of Stock firmware which existed previously: Android 7.0 as recommended by Lineage
Version of Recovery which existed previously: TWRP 3.7.0_9-0-h850
The device is: Not rooted

After the official builds /e/OS ‘R’ e-1.10-r, 1.11, 1.12-3, 1.13 and 1.14 (Android 11) did not work, I was looking forward to the new version e-1.15-r-20230915331434-dev-h850. Well, the negative user experience has unfortunately not changed. I did a fresh install (clear install), but after rebooting, the animated e-logo remains in a bootloop as before and cannot be set up and used.

Our awesome e-community member @ronnz98 built an unofficial /e/OS-S (Android 12) - and it works right out of the box. Hip, hip, hooray and cheers to e-1.15-s-20230919-UNOFFICIAL-h850 by @ronnz98

Fairphone FP2, not rooted, v1.15-r
Everything’s fine
On that occasion updated also Austrian easybank app (current version 3.9.1).
Seems for the first time to start properly without complaining about being ‘rooted’
I’ll investigate this further and report directly to the ‘banking apps’ conversation

Smooth update. No issues identified after half a day of usage - except for one appearing sometimes in App Lounge (it could be related to: https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/backlog/-/issues/7252):

Thanks for the great work anyway.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 8T (ginkgo)
Not rooted
Upgrade 1.11 → 1.15

• The update itself seems to have gone fine.
• The previous Bliss launcher crash loop has disappeared for now
• Mail seems to occasionally crash with a NullPointerException, which was not the case under 1.11.
• I have seen the popup that @ralxx mentions, though I suspect this might be Google’s doing
• I had got an error message from AppLounge about not being able to update WireGuard because the signature is different from the one it’s trying to install (the app was installed using AppLounge), but it appears to have resolved itself somehow

Now available (dev – stable is not there yet) for FP3.

Fairphone | FP3+ | FP3 | previously on /e/OS 1.14-s-20230819321663-dev-FP3 | not rooted

During the later stage of installation, the dialer app was stopped (App info / Close app prompt appeared). Launching the dialer app after installation and reboot works without a problem (but I’m not trying a call at midnight … ).

Release notes are there and include notes for 1.15-T (not available for my device yet)

Update was successful. Noticed that the advanced privacy widget was gone but was able to manually add it back. The position of some app icons changed.

Very positive: This is the first eos version that allows me to successfully run the coursera app.

thank you for the great work

It works well.

Recovery update to version 1.15 is missing, I couldn’t find updates for other Xiaomi devices either.

Has recovery development been suspended or discontinued? I could not find any information about it here on the forum.

Thanks, bye!

Installation error for Samsung Note 3 (hlte), OTA. Tried three times, same result. There seems to be a change in modus operandi because there is a new warning…but after that the error hits me…or you ;- )

Addendum: On another phone update worked flawless, tried again with the other one as I thought it might be a corrupted image, but same result. Had to install manually.

I continue to experience the problem I reported in Issue #7083.

I’ll be happy to try the T build once it becomes available. Althuogh the XZ2C Install page refers to a T dev build, one isn’t available via the link at this time.
