OnePlus Nord working perfectly. It’s much more faster than the 1.8 version that I had. I didn’t see there was so much update . Thanks for the job !
Vendor Name : Fairphone
Device name : Fairphone 5
Device CodeName : FP5
Version of /e/OS : 2.1-t - stable
Previous version : 2.0-t - stable
Is the device Rooted / Not rooted : Not rooted
Option “Edge long swipe action” doesn’t work anymore since 2.1 on the home screen, was working on 2.0
And same problem as @ctranxuan for the device camera with the RAW format since 2.1
I tried to upgrade thr OnePlus 8 Pro OTA. After downloading I startet the upgrade. The reboot stocks on the start screen (the screen withe the information about the unlocked bootloader).
After some reboots the OnePlus starts withe the"old" version (1.21-r-20240323388914-stable-instantnoodlep).
Now the update shows again the new Version. I paused the download (see screenshot).
Is there a way to upgrade without sideloading etc.?
No!
You can try an upgrade according to the LineageOS upgading instructions
NOTE: Following these instructions will not wipe your data. It is, however, recommended to save important data before doing so, anyway!
However, I would additionally and first install the current /e/ Recovery alias
- recovery-recovery-e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep.img together with
- dtbo dtbo-e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep. img
and - vbmeta-e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep.img
and then install it on the basis of /e/Recovery /e/OS-T using the command
- adb -d sideload e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep.zip

My FP4 has battery drain too. And these “Mobile network” and “Android system” eating battery like a wolf on a chicken coop…
It’s clearly a bug in Android 13 update. I hope there will be a fix in next OTAs…
Any update on this? Will there be a revised 2.1 release?
I would like to address a general “thank you” to our programmers. I use /e/ OS since June 2020 on a fairphone 3 (bought for this puropse).
The reliabiliy and stability became very good during this time span.
A very important improvement from my point of view is the installation and update process:
-
My initial installation was done with “nerdy” Qualcomm R&D tools and matching chipset drivers. I did it on my lab PC at work, which set up for purposes like that. This whole procedure was only recommended for experienced and technically skilled people.
-
My first update to a higher OS version was made using the “easy installer”. After I got it installed on my Linux Mint PC, it was very easy to update.
-
Update to Version 2.1 worked OTA - the highest level of user-friendlyness which is possible!
Thank you for that progress. It is the way to reach larger numbers of users.
There will be 2.2 and in farther future also 2.3, it might get fixed if a issue is reported on gitlab
Hi everyone,
may I add one thing this section too which relates to my created topic here: Samsung S9+ loss of closing app feature after upgrade from 2.0-s to 2.1-s
TL,TR
The section in the settings → buttons → “back long press action” is missing the option to close the current running application in the foreground. This option was in the previos version 2.0-s and is lost with 2.1
Device: Samsung Galaxy S9+ star2lte
Current OS: 2.1-s-20240603406609-stable-star2lte
Vendor Name: Fairphone
Device name: FP3

Before beginning, I want to thank to every Devs of /e/OS for our work.
I use the OS since 5 or 6 years, it’s an amazing Android OS.
Many, many thanks
For my first post here, I send a workaround, I hope can help.
My tests are below.
Device can’t connect to any IPv4 with an APN IPv6-only in Data Mobile network.
It’s maybe related with the issue 6793 [1], I have the same trouble with Proton VPNs or my Wireguard home server.
I did some tests and that concern all connections to IPv4 servers in Mobile Data.
My mobile operator (Bouygues Telecom, french operator) provide an APN IPv6-only with 464XLAT [2].
I found in Android code the property [3] : net.464xlat.cellular.enabled
and it’s set to false.
When I set the property to true, a new interface is create: v4-rmnet_data1 and a IPv4 is
setprop net.464xlat.cellular.enabled true
But this parameter is volatile, and it’s necessary to set after a reboot.
I try with ‘persist.*’ but it doesn’t works.
I don’t known if it is a workaround or this parameter is good. I’m right?
Another question: why Web browsing on the device is not impacted?

As already communicated several times (here and here and here), a clean install is not possible with existing stock Android 12 firmware T500XXS7CXB1 - BIT 7 (BINARY/U/SW REV) because /e/ has not yet made any adjustments. Well, it has not even been suggested to check the problem.

USB OTG to my Dac is still not working.
Hi everybody,
on my side, still no issue to download the new version (some minutes) and to install it (just some minutes, perhaps 5 min).
- Vendor Name : Samsung
- Device name : A5 2017
- Device CodeName : a5y17lte
- Version of /e/OS or Stock which existed previously : v2.0
- Is the device Rooted / Not rooted : Not Rooted
I noticed some issues (some were already there in 2.0 & previous) :
- I don’t see the QR Code tool in Camera app: fixed. Just the UX is not straightforward because you need to switch to video instead photo to see it. But feature not yet tested. (thanks @mihi)
- NFC doesn’t work (like in any previous version)
- Unfortunately no v3 for Bliss Launcher
- Like in v2.0, as soon as I start a call, the network switch to lower speed (2G or perhaps 3G) so internet is not available anymore (During call network switches to 3G and comes back to 4G after (#8095) · Issues · e / Backlog · GitLab)
- Still with this version CityMapper doesn’t work (start but does nothing)
- Since 1.17 or 1.18, impossible to have access to voice messaging in the call app. I have to call my voice messaging
For the others functions/apps, I didn’t noticed issue after some weeks of use
Your device is on R I guess. With R there is no Bliss Launcher V3. For QR code try switching modes, like from photo to video, there you should find QR if R has it.
Please note that your device will soon be unsupported:
oh no… no legacy for my phone !!! Please !!!
Thanks @mihi for the QR option
Since v2.1 upgrade, I can’t receive SMS messages anymore. Any hints ? Thanks in advance for your help.
Check whether the SMSC (Short Message Service Center) number the phone uses is correct:
-
Dial
*#*#4636#*#*
… “Testing” menu appears. -
Choose “Phone information”.
-
Scroll down to the “SMSC:” input field.
It’s not very intuitive territory there. This text field can be empty, and the SMSC the phone uses can be fine nonetheless.
First use the “REFRESH” button, this will put the SMSC the phone currently uses into the field, or “refresh error” if there is none.
After the phone number of the SMSC there might be an added number given, separated by a comma. This is harmless.
You can check whether it is the correct SMSC by looking it up online for your provider or by asking your provider for the correct number.If you decide to enter a different number here, you will have to confirm your input with the “UPDATE” button next to the field, else it will not be adopted by the phone.
If your SMSC turns out to be correctly entered, try whether it helps to turn off the phone (no reboot, real shutdown), wait a few seconds and turn the phone on again.
In case you use a physical SIM card for SMS, not an eSIM, you might use the opportunity to reseat the SIM card when the phone is off … can’t hurt.
For a more extreme measure there’s a network reset in Settings - System - Reset options. Be aware that this will affect Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, too, so be prepared for the loss of e.g. Wi-Fi passwords and paired Bluetooth devices.
Thanks a lot for this comprehensive answer.
Right after posting, I switched off the phone, removed the SIM card and inserted it into an old phone for testing. SMS receiving was down on the old phone as well.
After 10 minutes, I received a flurry of pending text messages. SMS receiving was active again.
I placed the SIM card back into the Fairphone, and SMS receiving is still active.
Problem solved. Some of the steps I took match actions you suggested.
The cause of the problem remains unclear : software/data glitch during the update? SMS service failure on the provider side? Anyway, I’m glad to receive text messages again
Warm thanks for your help.

FitBit app quit working - when I select to log in using existing google user, it immediately exists saying there was a problem. Other apps where this also occurs indicates that the internet is not available. Other apps are using internet fine, both cell and wifi.
GBoard - similarly the voice typing which sends data to google, quit working. Other keyboard features are still functional.
I’ve tried uninstalling/installing fresh these apps, cleared cache & data, manually set all permissions to allow, shut down and rebooted the phone many times, etc.
Previously my phone had /e/OS 2.0 (something) and these were working fine.
I really need these to work.
Is there a way to revert back to previous version of /e/OS?
