I had a lot of issues with the camera after upgrading to 2.1-t. No picture saved or corrupted image. Clearing the camera app. data and cache solved the issue.
No trouble whatsoever save the, now classical, Citymapper app that for a couple of years has been starting but freezing itself (only itself) seconds after its welcome screen⌠I remember it working on /e/ but that was long, long ago reallyâŚ
Apps optimization after update was very long (but I have lots)

problem with Wifi: when clicking to connect on a specific wifi the phone restarts
click on âNetworks needs to be verifiedâ and it restarts
Iâll go back to 2.0

Hello -
Great update from 2.0 to 2.1 and R to S with a Samsung S9 (starlte). Huge thanks to /e/ team.
It went smooth and nothing to complain so far except minor android changes⌠BUT I suspect a noticeable battery drain compared to 2.0/R. Now clearly âOS Androidâ is the top battery user.
To be monitoredâŚ

Thats definitely not the case with my FP4 but mine is not rooted.
Maybe someone with a rooted FP4 can check ?
To be clear:
after 6h from last full load, with a normal usage, the phone is at 54% battery with:
âOS Androidâ 19% of use (an android robot black icon)
âAndroid Systemâ 4% of use (a blue and grey gear icon)
That was absolutely not the case with 2.0 and R ⌠I remember seeing âAndroid Systemâ but not âOS Androidâ at all, or it was really low in the consumption listâŚ

The upgrade went perfectly well, thank you for the great job youâre doing.
It may help to clean cache of apps that are battery-hungry, did you try that already?
(In case one wants to generally do that after an update: the app cachecleaner could help by automating the process.)
@ obacht:
Hello - thanks for your reply -
So it happens that I did clean almost all caches a few days ago - but thanks for pointing me to that app cachecleaner, this seems pretty useful.
It think in my case it is not specifically an app draining the battery, it is the system itself. When checking the list of battery app usage, now I have that âOS Androidâ item (black android robot icon) which is eating most of power, but when tapping on it nothing happens (as opposed to other apps, when clicking on it it goes to the app battery menu) - and I canât recall seing that âOS Androidâ in the previous android 11 (R) battery usage list - seems to be a change in android 12 (S).
So it seems to me that the system is draining the batteryâŚ

Since the update, the 2-button gesture navigation doesnât work (pulling up on the home button is equivalent to tapping on it).
Hello! I meant to select âupdated and having issues.â
Main one affecting daily function is that every time I open the music app the music restarts.
Loving the new lock screen media player though!
Vendor: Murena
Device name: Fairphone 4
Version: 2.1 (whichever is the most recently provided update)
Second one is not an issue but observation and wondering if this will change or become customizable (I already read somewhere that the system color of the light blue wonât change), but when typing with the keyboard, the space bar is incredibly bright and distracting with each key stroke. It basically looks like a strobe.
General functionality with the new app and overall UI transitions is very glitchy.
Additionally, I have not yet been able to get my hearing aids to connect via bluetooth. The phone registers that they exist, I select the hearing aids one by one, and nothing happens.
I am, however, extremely grateful that Murena exists, puts in so much time and energy, and is community oriented. Thank you for taking the time to try to make things better.
If anyone reads this, is there a way to switch back to the previous version? Still learning these things.
Kind Regards

Works fine. Still SaftyNet can not be passed on T os version. Last SaftyNet pass was on last S version.
FM radio still does not work.
(Radio stations works but no sound)
I am using Kiss launcher but still often get report that Bliss launcher is crashing? No such fault if Bliss launcher is used for now on this 2.1 version.
Everything else seems fine for now.
Problem which seems solved is that cord headset when plugged into phone gets sound. Before on 2.0 for some reason it did not always.
There is no glitches like on 2.0 version. Works more fluent. Generally good job.
And maybe Iâm silly not seeing it, but are the emojis on the keyboard gone?

After 4 days of testing all apps run without issues. Apps response prompter over v2.0.
Finally I can run the most recent version of OsmAnd app 
, previously i was forced to use older versions.
It seems v2.1 uses slightly more energy, even in âairplaneâ mode. It is not much. Need to follow it for a longer period.
Thank you to all developers & testers of V2.1 and the improvements over previous version. 
My degoogled journey started in December 2021, and each version upgrade was an improvement. No regrets to jump on the Murena train 
Switching back is a new install of the older version, wiping your data.
Get used to the other variants, it looks like 2-button will be gone soon.
Thatâs the phone âbackgroundâ consumption - not related to apps or specific parts of the phone like screen, wireless, etc
Seems a bit highâŚ
A long press on the âenterâ button at the bottom right of the keyboard should bring up emojis.There also should be an option to show the emoji key permanently in Settings under System/Languages & input/On-screen keyboard/Android Keyboard/Preferences.
