Dear all,
I can confirm the exact same behaviour for my Fairphone 5. It looks like bricked (I did not test to connect it to a computer as @kipo did though).
Please provide help !
I liked /e/OS until yesterday evening after I hit “Reboot” and then could only see a black screen and think that I might have been too much confident in Murena and /e/OS developers.
Found out and updated manually Mi 11 Lite 5 NE (lisa) from 1.19.1-s to 1.20-t.
All working well. Thanks team! Nice thing I found out in /e/OS 1.20-t is capability to charge my phone to desired percentage - nice
Since v1.20 it’s no longer possible to download Apps from AppLounge, when using a USB-C- Lan-Connector. It now says: No connection
At home my Family and I don’t use wifi. I only use my Fairphone with a LAN-Adaptor and so fare it worked well. Would be great, if the AppLounge worked again in 1.21.
Hi everyone,
So with v1.20 the Pixel 7a (lynx) is now supported, thanks a lot to the team !
However, I had some difficulties to achieve the installation, since the e-recovery image provided doesn’t work (and Lineage recovery does but won’t install /e/OS), and the additionnal partition files are missing…
I would have suggested improvements in documentation but the topic doesn’t exists yet in the wiki section (@Manoj ?)
So if someone wants to install 1.20 on a Pixel 7a (lynx) device, I managed to do it by downloading the /e/OS 1.20 zip file provided in the installation instructions, then use the payload-dumper-go tool (see here) to extract from the the zip file all the .img files needed to flash the various partitions AND the recovery.
Using those files in the same way as described in the install proc finally worked !
Now, the phones seems to work great, even tho I haven’t used it for long at the moment.
Thanks again !
And one final question, I see that it is possible to relock the bootloader for Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro, but I can’t manage to find a solution to do it on the Pixel 7a. Does someone know if it could be possible ?
Vendor Name: Fairphone
Device name: Fairphone 5

Rooted: False
Working fine apart from now having a persistent ‘cloud storage full’ notification meaning i cant sync things despite only using 656.8 MB of 1GB storage.
I have the same ecloud problem. Yesterday the ecloud was supposedly empty, today it says it is too full and I get warning notifications. I only have 500MB used though. Surely a more general issue. @Manoj do you have any information about it by chance?
Hi dexic, i suggest having a look at the akku usage page in settings to check if an app uses unusual amounts of battery.
For my FP4 I noticed that advanced privacy consumes some more than before v1.20 but its still tolerable to me.
HTH
Only glich I noticed is gps sometimes can’t find exact location on magic maps, organic maps and google maps also. I believe this phone’s gps module not so convinient even in stock software. Other than this:
I updated the latest software with February Security Update then did clean /e OS install. Everything is working fine, I don’t even encounter lineageos problems mentioned on xda. Works perfectly, no fast battery drain, no heatup. I get 1.5-2 days battery. Speed is fine.
