@Manoj , once logged in, the link seems to point to https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/backlog/-/issues/743
My mistake, assumed all have access to the issue. To summarize, the issue has a lot of dev team member comments ā¦some of which are
I have never seen package manager remove an app if update fails. Even with a root shell it does not. It can definitely show many types of errors, but it does not uninstall.
and another ā¦
what is the behavior if the install step is in failure? Indirectly, the previous version can be removed by the system before moving to the updated one?
The team is working on finding the root cause of the app uninstallation. Will update on the progress
I am still stuck with 0.23.20220406176461. 
I bought the Fairphone 3 with /e/ OS, regularly got updates until 6. April 2022 and since then it only shows that it did not find any updates āKeine neuen Aktualisierungen gefundenā (last checked 14.October 7:15). I have the German version.
There are updates, but you will have to install them manually, as they involve upgrading to a higher Android version - Android 10 / Q for stable builds, 10 / Q or 11 / R for dev builds.
Manual upgrades currently involve wiping or formatting user data, so you will either have to start from scratch and re-install your user-installed apps, or backup your data, and restore it after upgrading. This is not staroghtforward, but searching teh forum will give you some help.
stable builds can be downloaded here
dev builds can be downloaded here

@manoj the dev comments youāve quoted suggest there may be a misunderstanding of what happened. As indicated in my original post the app disappeared from my phone on updating to v1.4q. It was there in v1.3, I updated to v1.4 and it was gone. The disappearance was not a result of trying to update the app itself. Attempts to reinstall then failed as described where the app appears to be now marked as unsupported. I read the original post from @claudiousse to also indicate app disappearance as a direct consequence of the v1.3 to v1.4 update.

You are suffering from Getting an error message in new ID creation on /e/OS Gitlab?, please follow the guidance, then perhaps you can create an issue we can all read!
The developers have been updated about this as well. That some users are reporting that the update from v1.3 to v1.4 caused this uninstall
@dave Yes indeed.
@Manoj So Iāll wait for the devs to find a solution to make the IZLY application available in App Lounge again in V1.4 or to give us an explanation why it canāt be done.
@dave Oui effectivement.
@Manoj Je vais donc attendre que les dev trouvent une solution pour que lāapplication IZLY soit de nouveau accessible dans App Lounge en V1.4 ou quāils nous donnent une explication de lāimpossibilitĆ© de le faire.
Hi to everyone!
After updating to 1.4-20220920220045, I am experiencing an issue with the GPS on my fairphone 3+:
when I drive around outside, tracking myself with Osmand, ca. 50% of the track is not recorded, leaving a discontinous lineā¦
either the GPS-signal is lost or the transfer of itās data to Osmand is broken.
the setting in the advanced privacy-section is on āreal locationā, double checked.
all previous versions of /e/OS worked fineā¦
have a good day,
markus
I think it is an issue with the 1.4 update.
I am still using the 1.3 version on a Samsung S7 and my Izly app is working properly. I still see it on the AppLounge.
Hope this helps.
Saving passwords doesāt work. When will bromite be upgraded?
Browser 100.0.4896.57.
I know this is fixed in .92?
After updating to 1.4 (S9+ Q dev), when reading an e-mail in the system mail app (K9-Mail fork, build #6.303), thereās no more any direct āReply-toā or āReply-to-allā button (whereas you can have one for āDelete messageā) ; to reach this feature, you have to navigate the hamburger menu, then āSendā (WTF ?), where you miraculously find the āReply-toā and āReply-to-allā entries (among other useful ones : āForwardā, āEdit as new messageā ā¦ etc).
Why on earth this obviously very inconvenient change ?
That change is also in the upstream K-9 Mail app. It was made there by the K-9 developer, and /e/ will have picked it up when they got round to merging the latest changes from there into their fork.
If you wanted to ask for it to be changed, the K-9 support forum would be the place
I wasnāt pointing out the /e/-team, knowing about the fork ā¦ so, youāre right (thanks), this needs to be notified to the K9 dev team. Iāll do.
But I felt it was worth telling about it here, 'cause Iām feeling that K9-Mail is going quite bad these days with those strange and silly changes ā¦ (I really donāt like this other one : you can no more setup a new account or even see your account passwords if you didnāt set a locking method for your phone ā¦ I know that itās for my security ā¦ but I would like that my phone donāt force me to do things that I want to decide MYSELF that I donāt need them ; just like cars beeping stronger and stronger as long as you didnāt locked your seat belt above 20 km/h ā¦ WTF ?)

Iāve an issue with my S9+ after upgrading to 1.4. The K9-Mail wich is included in e/OS does not downloading new mails automaticaly. I had to do it manually. Did someone else has the same issue? I tried to clear cache and rebootet several times. Iāve changed the Intervall but that also did not help. With 1.3 everything was fine.
Little feedback for 1.4, I didnāt have notifications, I received them for 3 or 4 apps but none of French medias like LāEquipe, Le Monde, France Info, is it normal ?
hello
Everything working fine, even the 2 back cameras ?
2nd bck cameras support in /e/OS release 1.4 ?
thanks for the good job done par development team
On my Gigaset GS290, I see that the 2nd back camera (wide angle lens) is still not supported in that new /e/OS 1.4 release. Iām disappointed.
Is there a plan to get that feature working in the future ?
The camera has been a pain point on the /e/OS since day one. The problem is more to do with most camera software being proprietary. We use OpenCamera which has its limitations. We even contacted the developer behind the opencamera Mark, but unfortunately he did not have the bandwidth to support on multiple devices. There is an open position for a developer with camera sw expertise. While we search we do assign camera related issues to developers already in the team.
