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

Maby i stupid question but is this update 3.6 pusht to the phone? If i push the system update button on my fp6 i getting not the 3.6 update i have the 3.5 a15 for the Fairphone 6 says nothing new is avalible!? Or do i need to download it from the side manual or is it still i test fase?
We are rolling out v3.6 builds - staggered release.
A16 build will be released after a couple of days. Still working on some last-minute fixes. Plan is to release with v3.6. The final list of devices for which we will release A16 will be shared after we have completed the A16 build.
Just a note of caution here. The team member informed me that with the LOS 16.02 build coming in a number of devices which got A16 may have to be dropped. There are some breaking changes in the code which will not work on all devices. As mentioned final list will be shared.
I already updated my FP6 to v3.6, without the upgrade to a16 (since it’s not out yet). Will I still be able to do the upgrade to a16? Or will I have to wait for v3.7?
Official upgrades all work by upgrading OTA the previous build. When released it will OTA upgrade the OS of your device to A16. The initial release would be of community A16 builds. Officials will come later.
It may be later. Oneplus nord avicii may be the earliest to get the official A16 as it is under testing. The others are under development.
Update: We had planned to release the OnePlus nord ‘avicii’ along with v3.6 but that does not see possible. QA has not given the green light for the build.
