Hello !
I saw today that by the recent announcement that the OTA for Fairphone 3 was restored . I was thrilled to install the latest version of e/OS but when I go “Programme de mise à jour” (it’s French which roughly means ‘updater’), I have a ‘no update avalaible’ message… Why ?
A precision : my poor Fairphone 3, stayed on 0.23-20220406176461 (Android 9) since 2022, because OTA updates were broken. Is this the reason why I can’t make the OTA update ?
Thanks to all who will help !
Your version is too old and even that one which can’t be update because Fairphone has changed encryption.
For the clean install you can check installation guide or check other peoples posts with 0.23. There is plenty. Please make a backup to restore afterwards
Thanks, that’s clear !!
Are you on dev or stable branch ?
If stable, and you want to keep your data.
you can try to first upgrade to android Q, then R, then S, then finaly T …
From the recovery mode, use those files :
