Yes, i’ve tried different cables with no luck.

Vendor name: Samsung
Device name: Galaxy S10+ SM-G975F/DS
Device codename: beyond2lte
Version of /e/OS or Stock which existed previously: e-1.18-s
Is the device Rooted / Not rooted: not rooted

Everything seems to be working smoothly.
DPI is wrong. It should be 525 and is 420
This is case from 1.16-s-2023101942893-dev-beyond2lte

DPI should not be used to control font and object size on screen, as this would case to use non-integer (fractional pixel to display pixel.

Anyway it works exactly opposite. The lower DPI, the bigger object should be, while in reality the lower DPI is set, the smaller object would appear.

P.S. I like size of fonts and icons, as they are on default setting (it is 420DPI) but this probably causes distortions

diffrent port also? My laptop has only one port to transfer data for example. other ports don’t work

I’ve tried different Ports and different Laptops.

Somehow I’m stuck on 1.17, the updater does not show 1.18 and 1.19 anymore. Previous updates were always smooth. Am I out of luck with my phone?

a3xelte has gone “Legacy” https://doc.e.foundation/devices/a3xelte. Android 10 (Q) stopped receiving Android security patches in February 2023 and /e/ made the decision to drop support.

On the device, use search facility in Settings, search for USB, expect to find

  • USB Preferences
  • Default USB settings – in Developer options.

The setting if found “No data transfer” can be changed with a “live, connected to PC” data cable plugged in.

Updated from 1.18 to 1.19.1
Not rooted

Running 1.19.1 now for some 22 days I found no flaws and much better energy consumption compared to older versions (please see here).

Many thanks for the feedback!

Interesting: I think that battery usage is better also in my FP4, even if I can’t demonstrate it.

Hi, all. Just want to report issue with displaying names in SMS app on Work profile. I have two SIMs. One personal, and one for my business numbers. The SMS app only shows names if someone from my personal address book (DAVx5 - my own nextcloud server) sends me an SMS. If person from my business address book (DAVx5 also) sends me an SMS, only number is displayed.
The thing is that i can choose from which SIM to send an SMS, just as making calls. But on dialer, names from both address books are displayed correctly.
My phone is:

Xiaomi Mi 11 lite 5G NE (Lisa) with latest 1.19.1 upgraded from 1.18

All OK here, save the classical issue with Citymapper
(app does access GPS, does load current city map, but never finalizes startup other than, curiously, when the phone has JUST been restarted -but basically this has always been the case for all successive versions of /e/, to my knowledge)

Unexpected FP5 rebootings. Not so frequent but I do not see why...

My issue: GPS is not working at all: no GPS location, no satellites detected by SatStat App.

First turn off the phone (no reboot, real shutdown), then turn it on again after a few seconds.
Then please check …
