Hi, I want to install /e/ on my FP3 and since my last two attempts did not work out without remote help - and the last one did not work at all - and since now I have a baby and no time to dig deep into how-to-do-it again, I would really love for someone who knows how to do it to support me. I would pay that since it would be very helpful and valuable to me.
What I´d need is: tell me what to download or do it with me, and which steps to take… I currently have LeOS on the phone and have done /e/-installation on my phone and with my computer before, so I am not completely clueless
For clarity’s sake, please omit that one in its current state and stick with the other links, else it will just get confusing, as the Fairphone 3/3+ and possibly other A/B devices get installed in a different way than is currently suggested in the Unified install guide.
If you happen to have Fairphone Angels (community volunteers offering help) in your vicinity (see here), you could ask them whether they have experience with /e/OS to perhaps help you.
i don’t know windows since 20 years now.
But “adb” and “fastboot” looks more difficult to install on a windows PC than on a linux one ( and you are probably not used to boot on linux-live-cd or linux-live-USB-stick )
Sorry, but first of all, you (or a friend) must follow Installing adb and fastboot on Windows PC because even the "/e/asy installer"needs starting from Stock Firmware.
Screenshots for how to even open a command line might be a hint towards very different approaches here. It gets no chance to look the same .
Whatever works.
