Update went smoothly and everything appears to be working fine. Thank you to everyone on the dev team!

It’s available on the server(s). If your updater can’t find it, hit the refresh button a few times, or a few times more, and if still no luck, clear cache and storage of the Updater App before trying again.

Device: DRE
e/os: 3.0-a14-20250530496779-community-dre

Issues:

  • Take screenshot action missing in App Drawer when in 90Âş degree view.
  • Kill foreground app missing from long press action
  • stock camera app - unreadable text when taking close range pictures
  • Advanced Privacy - location breaks
  • Not receiving incoming SMS texts.

All issues carried over since e/os 2.0

Fairphone | FP5 | FP5 | unknown (I beleive it was 2.8 but I got the phone a couple months ago and didn’t pay attention to the version) | Not rooted

Current build number: e_FP5-user 13 TQ3A.230901.001 eng.root.20250606.154448

So far since the update a few weeks ago I am noticing a few issues:

  • Sometimes when opening settings and searching for something (e.g. “notific”) clicking on the results does nothing. I have tried completely closing the settings app and re-opening it, but it only fixes after I reboot the phone.
  • Duolingo speaking exercises have stopped working. Clicking the “Tap to speak” button in duolingo immediately brings up the orange message that the app couldn’t understand what I said (even though I don’t even get the chance to speak, it just immediately fails) (ive noticed several posters here mention issues with murena voice-to-text, which might be related in some roundabout way)
  • this might be just my wrong interpretation given I didnt measure this in any way before, but I feel like the battery lasts a little less since the update

Please let me know if there is any logs/info I can provide to the dev team that will help in any way and I will be happy to do so.

Hi,

On FP6, the bottoms of the files are not visible when closed :confused:

The same problem on my FP5 (can’t update from 3.01 to 3.02)

Vendor Name : Sony
Device name : Xperia XA2
Device CodeName : Pioneer
Version of /e/OS or Stock which existed previously : stock
Is the device Rooted / Not rooted : Not

Working fine out of the box. Just, the camera button doesn’t open the camera app (like it does on stock), but still triggers photos. And the camera shortcut on the lock screen doesn’t work (maybe a permission that I missed though).

Doesn’t work at all, making it worse, instead of pinging me that the password is wrong every 5 minutes, it’s doing it every 5 seconds with this “fix”

Hello @Manoj , will there be a fix for this issue ? It’s supposed to be fixed while there are still issues :confused:

Just installed OTA update 3.02-a14-official-FP4, on both my spouse’s Fairphone 4 and mine.

. Vendor Name: Fairphone
. Device name: FP4
. Device CodeName: FP4
. Version of /e/OS or Stock which existed previously: 3.0.1-a14-official-FP4
. Is the device Rooted / Not rooted: Not rooted

No issue at all. Everything runs pretty well. Kudos to all the dev team!

I installed 3.02-a15-official on Fairphone 6 that came with regular android.

The experience is not great because the Bliss Launcher is on 1.3.1, which seems to be from 2020.

I don’t know if I’m supposed to be able to update it, but I am not. App Lounge tells me it’s the newest version

/e/OS builds are expected to have been running Bliss 3 for some time now. On my a15 I find

Version 3.1.2
foundation.e.blisslauncher

From Settings > Apps > Bliss Launcher.

Bliss 3 shows in active development in the repositories e / os / BlissLauncher3 ¡ GitLab.

However as you mention the possibility of finding an inappropriate update in App Lounge on FP6 there seems a reported not yet fully resolved anomaly here Signature of the Calendar app does not match which may (or may not) have some of the same root cause.

You might find it appropriate to join that thread if you see, from the questions currently being asked, the connection with your issue.

Thank you! I do have the “Signature of the Calendar app does not match” problem, too

One more question: can the problem with the “3.0.1-a14-20250607498722-official-FP5” update be related to an unlocked bootloader?
Also there seems to be no way to update to 3.02… with ota or manualy…

Re System Updater, after a run of fails you should probably do:

Settings > Apps and notifications > See all … apps > 3 dot menu top right > Show system > Updater > Storage & cache > Clear storage

When you press refresh on the updater you have approx 25% chance of succes so be prepared to try again and maybe try to guess a less popular time of day.

If you want to manual OTA update you must not use the Install ROM found on the install page:

https://images.ecloud.global/official/FP5/IMG-e-3.0.2-a14-20250627504416-official-FP5.zip

This method is not officially documented for FP5 [1], but if you know what you are doing the OTA_PACKAGE is found by remove 4 characters IMG- from that url →

https://images.ecloud.global/official/FP5/e-3.0.2-a14-20250627504416-official-FP5.zip

and checksum with

Hi @Manoj
for S10e (beyond0lte) there is an Android 13 update for 2.9 and 3.0.1 but not for Android 14 (last version available and the version I use). Why?

I can’t get 3.0.2
Several times the last 3 days clear cache and storage and tryed to get the update.

I’ve managed to connect my FP6 to my Nissan Qashqai, but when I make calls, the sound doesn’t come out of the car, it comes out via the Fairphone, which is very strange…

Hi 18yt8zhg,
I guess you already checked if the connection is set to use the device for media audio only or if phonebook access and calls are enabled too ?

Yes and bluetooth doesn’t work for media. Just for call.
