Hi there.
Vendor Name: Fairphone
Device name: FP3 (with + camera modules)
Version of /e/OS or Stock which existed previously: Android 11 / 1.8.1. stable
Is the device Rooted / Not rooted: not rooted.
No crashes so far, but I feel like that the battery is draining very fast. Even in “Power saving mode”, just recognized a drop of 8% in less than 10 minutes of only casual using Signal and writing messages.
Samsung S9+ (X2)
Samsung S7
All phones updated to 1.81 smoothly.
Many thanks
I never had this problem with version 15.1, but now I do after upgrade to 18.1.
Ok apparently the gallery app has issue and some people were able to duplicate it. Hopefully it get sorted soon.
Regarding the downloading status for apk files, I dont think this should be an issue since I dont get it in version 15.1. And yes the issue is NOT with the OS, but with the app itself since if I use a different file app it got displayed correctly.
I’ve updated to [e-1.8.1-s-20230203257074-dev-FP3] on my FP3 and I’m experiencing serious performance issues.
The overall OS is really laggy, sometimes gestures, tapping etc. is delayed for 10 - 20 seconds.
Fairphone 3+
update from 1.7 to 1.8
Hoping this update solves sms app crash but it’s not the case.

Form 1.7 e/os, the sms app crashes when selecting a message.
I tried to clear cache & storage but the bug is still here.
The update to 1.8 does not change the behavior.

Can’t confirm on a Fairphone 3 running 1.7-s-20230111250406-dev-FP3. Selecting messages works fine for me.
Please give more info about your /e/OS version for comparison … [HOWTO] Give complete /e/OS version info easily for support, answers, comparison etc
And just to confirm: You are using the default /e/OS SMS App (“Message”)?
Hello! I have problem with my photos after I upgraded to the Android 11 version of /e/OS. I’m currently on latest version /e/OS 1.8.1-20230204247076-FP3.
My photos are not syncing to Murena cloud and are currently only stored locally. I have storage space available 13,5 GB of 20 GB (67.54%) used.
Can anyone help me figure out why?
Hi,
you’ll find some information here: https://community.e.foundation/t/feedback-for-v1-7/46636/181?u=frank.bxl
Actually, the problem vanished on my FP3 after update from 1.7 to 1.8.1. Did you try to update?
Thanks. It looks like the problem was introduced in the base Android OS before v1.7 was issued and fixed in the OS base before 1.8 was issued. Possibly not directly an /e/ issue.
I didn’t want to update before I found out whether or not the issue was addressed because I didn’t want to have to roll back and restore my phone. Again.

FP3
/e/OS 1.6-o-latest-dev → 1.8.1.s-dev
Not rooted
I also had to reboot the phone myself.
I got a huge problem. After doing a few things / using some apps my phone always freezes since updating. I habe to open the FP3+ and remove the battery. Up to five times a day. It isn’t really usable anymore.
The update 1.6 to 1.8 was still without any problems, but the last one to 1.8.1-s-20230203257074-dev is buggy for me. Much batteryusage from Android system included.
I am looking forward to the next update.
Keeping the power button pressed for about 15 seconds should force a reboot.
Not any longer for my frohen FP3+.

The Belgium pay app is still not working
Not a good sign. This should work in almost any situation.
You didn’t leave the bootloader unlocked, by any chance?
In which case a rollback from 1.8.1 to 1.8 would probably be a matter of just switching the active OS slot back to the previous 1.8 one (Android rollback protection shouldn’t kick in if 1.8 and 1.8.1 are on the same security patch level).
In case the bootloader is locked (which is the default state of things on the Fairphone 3/3+), don’t unlock it now, because locking as well as unlocking it will force a factory reset for security reasons.
I think you could try safe mode to determine whether it’s an App at fault or the OS … [HOWTO] Reboot into Safe Mode.
This is a problem that was introduced with the 1.8.1 update for me. Before, the problem did not exist (FP3+ from 1.7-r stable to 1.8.1-r stable).
I have detected a bug !
If you go to Parameters > Update and clic three vertical dots Show release notes, there is an error 404 Page not found.
The link is https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/releases/-/releases/v1.8.-s but should be v1.8.1-s · e / os / releases · GitLab
This same bug happened to me yesterday … I would say for the first time since I’ve been on e-OS (nov. 2019) … but not 100% sure … may be 1 other time a long long time ago.

Hi!
I’ve tried to install eOS, of the two versions mentioned in the subject, with the help of TWRP. This failed, badly. The settings app always crashes, when doing so. And TWRP wants me to “Enter Password for User [0]”, but doesn’t accept any password I’ve defined. I’ve tried several eOS and TWRP versions.
Now I can’t make any nandroid backups, and I can’t root the device. I need to use the e-Recovery (that works).
Can the recent versions of eOS make work with the recent versions of TWRP?
Bye, Volker
