VoWiFi
Since the udpate to 1.21 today, I cant call over Wifi when the Device is in WiFi but Aeroplane mode is on. This is supposed to be working.
VoLTE is working fine when connected to >=4G.

5G NR Indicator
Altough the phone status (##INFO##) reports EN-DC and NR available, there is no more 5G Icon as used to be before.

Also the 4G and the phone icon is uncool. Can that be turned off?

That phone icon is call strength. You can disable it in

Settings - System - Status Bar - System Icons and disable call strength

• la notification de lecture média est complètement modifié : bouton petit et isolé qui ne permettent plus de gérer correctement la lecture (surtout si vous êtes au volant), barre mobile inutile (et qui doit pomper sur la batterie) → aucune option trouvée pour changer cela.
• je ne peux plus utiliser de smiley dans mes sms, le bouton n’existe plus.
• bouton “paramètre” disparut du menu notification.

Ce sont des modifications de l’interface dues à Android 13, il me semble que c’est lié au paradigme de l’interface Material You (source ). Plus d’explication sur le lecteur multimédia sur la page offciel d’Android 13 ( Votre musique n’a jamais été aussi stylée)
Pour les smileys, il faut faire un appuis long sur la virgule à gauche → Paramètres du Clavier → Préférences → Afficher la touche Émoji

Works as well as 1.20-T

I still have problem with 1440p video playback. This issue is absolutely surprising. The moment I would try to play 1440p video screen will go completely blank - blank and nothing is shown, not even buttons on bottom of screen or status bar - just nothing. This happens only when Night Light is off. Turn on Night Light and 1440p video playback is normal.

Disappearing settings are quite annoying. Is it that I always have to avoid reboots/restarts or powering off device? Before GPS was going into week rollover, which is fixed with assisted GPS*. Now I am loosing some settings. I am loosing Tasks (Tasks.org) DavX5 synchronisation, some sound settings and alarms refuse to go off, until I cycle them off and back on. There is more, which I described elsewhere on this forum.

Generally I am very happy with /e/OS. Installing it was third best decision ever made with regards to phone. 2nd best decision was buying Nokia N900 and 1st was enabling community repository. It is shame nothing like this exists now. I am closest to Nokia N900 with community repository I ever have been.

Long live to /e/OS

If the device still works, you can install Linux on it :

I was hit by the same exact bug for VLC. Thanks for the explanation, because I first tried to go to App > VLC > Permissions, but I didn’t see the permissions for Files.

OTA update OK.

e-drive does not work properly: it does not synchronize files, especially photos, even if I force the refresh.
However, synchronization is instantaneous with nextcloud clients on my Samsung A52s (iode) or laptop (MandrivaLinux).
Mail, calendar, notes, tasks,… correct (with some specific exceptions).

OTA upgrade to 1.21-t stable went flawlessly (despite an error message about dialer crashing during the update). Many thanks for the great work!

Same here. Great! Thank you very much!

Is the device rooted : yes

OTA upgrade went well. The haptic feedback for the keyboard is now functional (the feature was lost with 1.20-t version).
Unhappily the “Hello Bank!” app does not accept anymore the “digital key” to be installed : I can’t do internet payments (this was possible with the 1.20-t version).

Thank you very much for all the work you do.

I wanted to disable that icon as well, and that’s the first place I looked at. But there is no ‘call strength’ to disable in that list for me (FP3+)

[Aymeric]

Ok, merci pour ces précieuses infos.

Quelqu’un connait-il une alternative pour restaurer le lecteur multimédia à un état plus compact ?

PS : Je confirme malheureusement que ma batterie se vide en une journée, avant la MAJ, elle tenait 2 jours en conditions similaires.

Update OTA ok, but the vibrator reacts randomly when certain keys are pressed, and when it does, it vibrates less loudly (barely perceptible). No problem before 1.21.

thanks, but I think the problem is rather that the icon indicates “no signal”, although the signal is actually fine… or is this indicator generally outdated (and thus showing zero strenth) when you use (Vo)LTE/5G?

as there’s the problem with the inability to manually select/find cellular networks, I considered it to show zero signal erroneously …
