Hello,
I upgraded today from e/os 1.8.1-r to 1.9-s on my Xiaomi Mi 8 - dipper.
I followed the upgrade instructions and installed the new data via fastboot sideload. Before I removed the Island user and the security prompts in the settings.
So far so good. The system runs.
But now when I go into TWRP, I am no longer asked for my pin, although I have set it up again. Furthermore the directory /sdcard is shown to me with encrypted data. I think this is not normal, however I have no idea what I could do to restore the pin prompt. Furthermore TWRP does not save the settings anymore.
I haven’t seen a launcher which lets you customise this, yet.
If you search the internet, there supposedly are Apps which let you customise the quick settings menu in the desired way, but look out for in-App ads etc.
I didn’t dig too deep, though, I’m not using the quick settings menu all day long, and it still does its job.
Sticking with Android 11 only because of this will become kind of silly at the latest when update support for Android 11 runs out, so either about this time next year, or earlier with /e/OS for the Fairphone 3/3+ because of this here …
In my Fairephone 3, I have sometimes, an issue with “Trebuchet stopped working” when I try to switch between apps already opened.
And sometimes too, I can’t switch at all beause (I don’t know how to call it) “the menu for switching” is freezed => I restart the phone and it resolve this issue.
I try to swtich slowly and, for now, thoses issues doesn’t appeared anymore…
Edit : sorry, I was on 1.8.1 R and passed to 1.9 S
Something weird I just noticed on Fairphone 3(+) (i.e. actually on both of them). Factory-installed, unrooted.
device: FP3, FP3+
rooted: no
/e/OS version: 1.9-s-20230310268290-stable-FP3
On FP3/FP3+, the notification LED does not work anymore. The LED itself works if you go to Settings and play there with it, but when it should actually show a notification or indicate a low (or charging) battery, it stays blank.
Yup, right, I have that sometimes, too (FP3+ with 1.9-s stable): Switching active apps does not work (i.e. when pressing the “rectangular” button nothing happens). A restart solves it. I did not yet find a good way to reproduce, it just happens every 2nd/3rd day …
Does it help if you explicitly set the default launcher again in Settings - Apps - Default Apps - Home App?
If you are using the default Bliss launcher which comes with /e/OS, you could try whether clearing cache and storage of Trebuchet and/or BlissLauncher helps in Settings - Apps - See all … Apps - (three dot menu top right) - Show system - Trebuchet / BlissLauncher - Storage and cache - Clear cache (try this first) / Clear storage (this should reset the home screen and settings).
Interesting, this should basically be the same build as dev (just a different build type), released later once dev users used their dev version for a little while.
I notice there’s a notification setting “Lights with screen on”. Does it play a role if your screen is on or off?
And you checked Settings - Battery - Battery light for anything that would turn the LED off when charging?
I have a Fairphone 3 I installed on /e/OS 1.9 (s-20230310268290-stable) recently (last Wednesday) and everything works very well.
There’s a little problem, the Wi-fi connection is really unstable (like not detectable in the AP’s logs), but only when the screen is off.
It looks like a settings that disables the Wi-fi when the screen is off, but the setting is absent, but I can’t find it, neither on the settings’ search engine, nor on the Internet.
Anyone knows how to disable this annoying setting?
“finally” someone to notice this issue as well. I actually thought I might be the only one having this issue…
It is really bugging me and I have tried to look for all possible settings, but can’t find any. I assumed it has something to do with battery saving, but, well, no option to be found
But playing around with the settings I noticed that what did have an impact is that the LED suddenly works fine if I make the notification a permanent on light. So the issue seems is only with the blinking LED (regardless of the interval).
I’am using e.OS for quite while now, and more or less I never had problems with it.
But as I updated to v1.9 I realized, that the Camera App on several phones don’t work anymore…
I used several Phones to test and have the same error: Camera has closed again
The phones I used since the v1.9 update are:
Motorola G4 Play
Samsung S4 i9505 / i9515
Samsung S5 International (klte)
Fairphone 2
Motorola X Play
On all these Phones the Cam App won’t start anymore… At v.1.8.1 it was running fine… If I use an alternate App like ‘LibreCamera’ or ‘OpenCamera’, it’s working fine…
