All is working well, thanks to the team.

I noticed that when I research an app on App Lounge now there is all the open source apps in the first positions, then PWAs, then regular apps. Is that a functionality or a bug?

New Mails can’t be opened in stock mail app.
The mail opens and is directly closed and back in the mail overview.

The calender app crashes when using the search function within it.

Everything seems ok so far like with any previous OTA releases. Thank you devs for the hard work!

Whenever I try to update my paid Apps, Aurora Store refuses the process due to a non-specific process (Location or OS version) and I am stuck with outdated versions. Cleaning the cache doesn’t help it either. But free apps work fine. Any fixes for that?

Rest of 1.18 seems to work fine (test day 1)

As usual, no issues after the update, things are working as expected.

Big thanks to the /e/ team for all the great work - I wish you happy holidays and merry x-mas!

I have an issue with email if I click on the email message it doesn’t switch to the read pane. Messages older that Sunday December 10 2023 I can read, but not after that. Pretty sure I did update that day.

Online (from a desktop) when I log into e email it works fine.

Note users : Gefri, Svarthoefdi and CaMi773 has same issue .

Everything works fine, session problems in App Lounge are now fixed. Looking forward for Android 13 for the FP4 next month. Thank you Murena for this awesome OS.

PS: I really like the /e/OS launcher, it stands out from AOSP and makes the OS unique and look more modern. But there are things which could be included in next updates, like alphabetic sorting and app settings on long press, for example.

Edit: Search in calendar crashes the app.

All seems fine after couple of days.

Updated via OTA without any problem
Thanks to the team for the great work!

No issue on my side (same version as you), my wife neither… Maybe try to clear cache and data and reconfigure your mail client.

The update went very well, but I noticed that the battery discharges faster, the phone burns randomly.

Thank you for your answer. I cleared the cache of mail and calendar app.
Mail app now seems to work, but calendar app still crashes when I try op open the search dialog.

Endless boot sequence preventing to go to the OS (endless bouncing dot under the “e” logo).

Please note Lineage 20 and microG-Lineage 20 (Android 13-T) do both work perfectly on this phone.

Clearing mail cache did not work for me. Did you also clear data? I think no because I would lose emails?

Update from 1.17
Not rooted

Problem: I can’t open emails. Touching an email to open it results in it starting to open then closing.

Edit: It seems to be just one account. I’ll investigate further.

Edit: Removed & readded the account. All good now.

I am experiencing abnormal battery drain since updating from 1.16 to 1.17 and now to 1.18. The device currently loses around 5-6% per hour while idling with screen off.

I could not blame any particular app for being responsible for the drainage, but I do see that see that ‘Android System’ and ‘Android OS’ are now showing up prominently among the list of top battery users. This was not the case before the issue. This is supported by the data I am seeing in BBS. Especially, the alarms with ~25 wakeups per hour for ‘android’ and the processes for ‘system’ raise concern. On the other hand, CPU states and deep sleep are looking good to me.

Normal behaviour:
Before the issue, I had usually mobile data on (idling in background), wifi and location services turned on (this is to connect/disconnect automatically to my VPN when leaving my home wifi). On-demand (when in the car) I manually activate bluetooth. One full charge lasted me around 1.5 - 2 full days. With this issue, I have been struggling to get over a full working day with one charge, even if the device is currently not much in use and mostly laying around idling.

Unfortunately, I am only able to upload one image per post.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
