Nice to get the OTA upgrade to A15 but while trying to switch off notifications for Advanced Privacy, which started spamming after the update, I discovered that I no longer am able to access any settings related to the personal profile.
I have a personal and a work profile on my device and under Settings all relevant options for the personal profile, like Installed Apps, Notifications, Authorisations etc. are no longer accessible. The option to switch to the options for the personal profile is still shown in every case, but when trying to switch nothing happens. I will create a GitLab ticket for that bug.
[EDIT]
After a few reboots the problem vanished and settings for the personal profile are accessible again for now. Strange behaviour, but Iām fine with it. Will pull the created GitLab issue.
OK, I didnāt understand. No, I restored FairphoneOS, then I installed /e/OS 3.1.2 community via the command line, but I had these issues. So I switched back to FairphoneOS to install /e/OS 3.1.4 official. Since 6 p.m., Iāve had /e/OS 3.1.2, which is working great.
The Fairphone 6 update from 3.1.4 to 3.2.0 went smoothly. Everything appears to working as it should.
Individual Advanced privacy block notifications started popping up in addition to the weekly digests. A bit annoying due to them not being too useful. Luckily the notification setting allow for them to be disactivated.
With the stock camera app now being included, I was surprised to see that the old camera is still present and it canāt be removed. Not very clean. I can hide it as a work-around because Iām using the Lawnchair launcher, bit still. Please tell me thereās (going to be) a way to remove it. And not only by maybe doing a factory reset.
Finally the addition of settings for the physical switch is much appreciated. Be it with slightly mixed feelings. Iām only interested in using it to set the phone to vibration, but the available switch options are too limited. DnD mode is the next best thing as an option for the switch that is available, but that mode is too restricted to my liking. Please allow for selecting any defined mode.
Just updated from 3.1.4-a13-official to 3.2-a15-official via OTA-Upgrade on a (not rooted) Fairphone 5.
Thank You, everything went well!
The upgrade process was very fast.
Update went smooth. Checked out new camera app. Is it normal that i sometimes hear an audible click near the camera assemblies when i switch modes or settings in the new app? It doesnt happen in the old one.
Also, hoping they add the ability to remove the old camera app⦠and they change something about the advanced privacy always notifying everything is ok. It will turn into a boy cried wolf after a while.
upgraded 3.1.4-a14-..-official-FP5 to 3.2-a15-..-official-FP5 without issues.
One icon (Music app) popped out from subfolder to main desktop.
Pioneer VSX-532 Bluetooth started to work (found, connected) while previously did not find it. A Renkchip cast device HDMI dongle still does not work while another (J5) after dongle firmware upgrade works.
Overall really many things work really smooth, kudos to the team.
Version of /e/OS or Stock which existed previously: 3.1.4 official
Is the device Rooted / Not rooted: not rooted
Manual update - command line, then locked bootloader.
Phone works ok so far, but there is sitll App Lounge issue - after some time it stops being able to download apps from google play store - well known download- retry loop. There are anonymous accounts problems as well.
I am not reporting some apps problems since they are not a part o /e/OS.
Download speed was slow but I was very glad to see that I can now find charging Limit in Settings! So fyi to the fairphone 5 users, charging limit is now available!
Yesterday, I saw the new update to 3.2. It was so slow that I paused it (and I think i deleted the update). Today, I canāt see the new OTA Update. Yes Iāve already rebooted my smartphone.
Fairphone Gen. 6, current 3.1.4.a15-2025095526528-official-FP6, bootloader locked.
What can I do to display the update again, or was there a problem with distributing the update?
Updated to 3.2-a15-20251022539003-official-FP5 on my FP5 device (coming from the previous build available OTA for ordinairy users like me). At first glimpse everything looks fine, but Iām having issues with several applications:
Spofity (first song plays, then having issues connecting to network, goes to offline mode)
Liibre office (says ānot compatible with this version of Androidā), but no update available
Looking for an alternative, Office 365 gives an error when viewing detais in the app lounge (āunknown errorā)
App Lounge keeps sometimes hanging at startup, is in general very slow
Many issues with āAccount unavailableā (the anonymous account you use is no longer available) in App lounge; renew the session wonāt work
So in all it looks like incompatibility of non-core apps (core apps like Signal, Brave browser and email all work fine); mostly related to (what seems to me) connection or right issues. Update: Under āAdvanced privacyā all apps where selected again for the āhide my IP addressā option. After excluding some of these here again it resolved issues for some but not all apps.
Hi @Hase Of course, the camera isnāt my top priority either; what matters to me is having a well-functioning, de-Googled phone. In fact, my own camera still takes great pictures, even though it works only in a very limited way. It does have some excellent features that are currently unavailable.
If /e/OS canāt handle a phoneās hardware perfectlyāin this case the cameraāthatās a bug that definitely needs fixing. I asked whether all of your cameras work because Iām interested in knowing if this issue affects other Xiaomi devices as well, or just the particular model Iām using. From your answer, I gather that your camera also isnāt functioning as it should.
Thatās something the developers need to look into: either resolve the problem in a future update or, if it canāt be fixed, clearly communicate that limitation.
Proton VPN, Proton Mail, and the Lumo app work perfectly. Proton Pass is also installed (I installed all of these just two updates ago), but I havenāt started using the latter yet. It looks like it would work for me too, if I did use it.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro /e/OS 3.2, updated from 3.1.4, which was updated from 3.1.1.
