Since version 1.14, a few users have reported a crash with the system Updater whenever they try to open it. In that case, they won’t get notified of the next OTA system update. To solve this problem users need to:
go to Settings > Apps > See all apps > 3 dot menu > Show system > Updater > Storage & cache
Tap on Clear storage and validate
Go to Settings > Updater
Tap on the refresh arrow
And voila! 1.15 should appear among the available updates!
For the record, if your phone is in french, the app name is “Gestionnaire de mise à jour”, you won’t find “updater”.
Same for other languages, you have to check for the translation of “updater”.
This morning I had a notification for a new version (1.15, i’m still in 1.14). After deleting the app storage, the updater don’t find the new 1.15 version. When i click on the refresh button, it says that i’m using the newest version. Is this normal?
You can set the phone to English, follow the necessary steps, and then set it back to your native language .
Settings - System - Languages & input - Languages - (add English here and/or if it’s there but not in the first position just long-tap and drag it into the first position)
I have a Fairphone 3 with version 1.14-s-20230815320616-stable-FP3 installed. Despite following your advice when I try to open the update section the app closes. Do you think there is a way to perform the update manually?
