Feedback for v3.0

Hello,

I was going to file a bug report with the help of adb. So, this bug report is no longer necessary ?

Many thanks to the Murena team for helping us.

For your information, when I performed the official update to E/os 3.0 via my smartphone, all the advanced privacy options were checked (including hiding my IP address), and so, when the system rebooted, these options were active (I assume). What I noticed is that when I got to the interface, all the advanced privacy options were unchecked (in red). Advanced privacy is sometimes buggy (no longer accessible via the gear icon), requiring you to go to settings. Yesterday, I had problems connecting to the internet. After a few tries, it worked. Probably some issues with the 3.0 installed.

my fairphone 5 switches itself off after 8. I can’t even go to Settings

What does “after 8” mean?

it’s the number given above by Manoj in his procedure, before"go to settings"

I’m running a test. I disabled all the advanced privacy options. I will shutdown the device for 30 minutes and turn it back on after 30 minutes to see if my FP4 boots normally.

Ough… Now I got it. One more word would make it so much clearer. It is: “step” :wink:

@Manoj for my Pixel 5 this process doesn’t work.
The failure point is after step 8 : as soon as I unlock the screen the phone restarts automatically so I have no time to change the settings unfortunately.
I’ve tried the plug/unplug of the USB method you mentioned at steps 4 and 7 but it did not gave me more time to change settings after I entered the pin code…

The feedback has been shared with the team. As mentioned the workaround may not work for all cases. We will check if there are other options available as workaround.While we wait for v3.0.1

Ok. No change. When the device is off during a long time, and whether I start it, the screen that asks me for the PIN code appears after a while, and the device is automatically stopped. I turn on the FP4, and the Recovery screen is present. ‘Try again’ option and normal start. I think I will wait the 3.0.1 update to see what happens.

  • Device name: Oneplus 6
  • Device CodeName: enchilada
  • Version of /e/OS or Stock which existed previously: 2.9-a14
  • Is the device Rooted: No? (pretty sure not)

This is a backup device without a SIM card. I have not noticed any issues.

Hello, I would like to report a bug on e/OS 3.0, cmf phone 1.

1- Create a note with the Notes application.
2- Pin the note to the home screen.
3- go to home screen
5- Go to the Notes application
4- Delete the note from the Notes app.

Result: impossible to delete the pinned widget on the home screen.

Install adb on your computer

Please follow our guide Installing adb and fastboot on a Linux PC.

Prepare the device

The device will receive the new update over the USB connection.

  1. From the recovery screen, tap on :arrow_left:​ the left arrow on the top of the sreen:
  2. The main recovery screen is displayed, tap on Apply update:
  3. Plug your device to your computer with the USB wire.
  4. The apply update panel is displayed, tap on Apply from ADB:
  5. The sideload mode is enabled, and your device is ready to receive the update:

Apply /e/OS 3.0.1 from you computer

From there we consider that the user is able to run a terminal, in order to run adb command. Please refer to the Install adb on your computer if needed.

Check the link between the device and the computer

Firstly, you have to check that your computer is able to see your device and that this one is into the sideload mode. You can check that with the following command on a terminal:

command

adb devices

output

List of devices attached
27771FDH2S008W  sideload

:information_source:​ If you can see a similar output your device is ready for getting the update.

Send the /e/OS 3.0.1 update

In this step you have to paste the file path of the downloaded file. In this example, we apply the /e/OS 3.0.1 update for Pixel 7 device (codename panther).

command

adb sideload e-3.0.1-t-20250606498706-official-panther.zip

:information_source: The screen will show the progress percentage. The update will take few minutes (10-15min).



Once completed you can tap on Reboot system now.

It looks complicated, but is actually pretty straightforward. Give it a try. The guide is solid. This is how I learned :slight_smile:

@Manoj any idea when the image for FP5 will be done cooking?

Can someone help me understand what this OverlayFS even is? Previous updates started without any issues.

Great, thanks for working on version 3.0.1!
However, I’m unable to download the .zip file for the FP3 — could someone help me with that?

Same matter, i can’t go after step 8… :confused:
