Do not share test build information
This thread has been created specifically for posting information on official and community /e/OS builds.
To understand the difference between build types refer this guide
Please do not post information or links to /e/OS test builds on the forum.
The test builds are as yet untested and under development, and may in some cases cause user devices to soft brick.
Such information can confuse other users who do not see these builds in the updater.
Remember not all users who come to this forum are experts in installing and formatting custom ROMs and can end up seriously damaging their devices by trying out these test builds
If you are genuinely interested in helping with the testing activities and also understand how to fix and do some minor level of testing on custom ROMS, you are welcome to join the testing team
As part of the testing team you can share your comments on the dedicated testing telegram channel.

Murena has changed the file naming (apparently starting) from this new version 2.8 â out goes âuâ, in comes âa14â (e.g. my own version is now called e-2.8-a14-20250221470208-community-FP3). My own install went fine and even quicker than before (well under 20 mins). I havenât done any testing beyond booting so far.
Right after the boot, I am getting the information/warning that Advanced Privacy is giving all apps no or a fake location â however, the details of Advanced Privacy then correctly display the apps I have exempted from this. I think the benefits of the warning still outweigh its negligible lack of precision.
Other Fairphoners, feel free to check whatâs online for you:
As of right now, 2.8 community is available for FP3, FP4 and FP5, but 2.8 official is not (yet). (UPDATE monday, 3 March 2025, 12 pm Berlin time: official now available for all FP3/FP4/FP5)

I had the same problems on my device as @WillemR described. His suggested solution also helped me installing the OTA.

OTA Update went fine and quick.
After Reboot i got no connection to mobile network (German Telekom). WLAN was ok.
Tried some changes in Network-Config, also an Reset of Internet Connection and
one more reboot. Nothing did it.
Then i found under manual network choice âTelekom.deâ twice and choose the other one.
After that i one time switched into airplane mode and back, what did it now!
S10e is only community, but yes it was an official /e/OS version.
But for this trick to work you need recovery at least v, 2.4/2.5, that was when this option, to enter fastboot from recovery, appeared in /e/OS/ recovery.
Good point âŚ
it is good practice ever since to include what is nowadays called community-builds in these feedback threads as they are âofficial buildsâ as well.
With regard to build names official once was called stable and community once was called dev⌠both have always been âofficialââŚ
In contrast to test and unofficial and custom builds.
@Manoj please confirm or correct and maybe change the default text for the initial feedback-post accordingly as it is misleading ⌠given the new convention for the build names, thanks!

everything works pretty well, as usual
2 little problems Iâve had for a while:
App lounge that wonât install apps or update them (message retry after download. note that Iâve cleared the cache several times)
Notes app that wonât connect to the Murena account even though itâs back in the cloud
Hey,
the notes app isnt working yet because the murena team blocked all external requests from apps like nextcloud, notes, etc. Thats why it doesnt work yet. Once they will reopen external access, its going to work again
