Teracube 2e w/ /e/OS beyond Android 12 updates coming

I reached out to Murena support asking if the Teracube 2e would get /e/OS support beyond Android 12. This is what I got:

"Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your Teracube 2e.

I understand your concern about the device running on Android 12 and the need for security updates. As of now, updates to newer versions of Android for the Teracube 2e are planned and will be rolled out as they become available.

Our development team is working diligently to ensure these updates are compatible and stable for your device. We prioritize the security and satisfaction of our users, so rest assured that you will receive an update notification once the newer versions are ready for installation.

In the meantime, I recommend regularly checking the ā€˜System’ > ā€˜Updater’ section on your device for any available updates and applying them as they become available. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out."

That’s all I wanted to know: that they’re working on it and that the updates are planned. So if you have a 2e, just hold on, the updates are coming.

Usually in the weekly update you can see it a bit ahead:

Before you check in the updater :wink:

@YellowJersey, thanks for the info, looking forward to seeing it happen.

You can also check the stable download page to see when it becomes available, it seems to show up there long before the ā€œupdaterā€ on my phone sees it.

I really hope so. I don’t understand why this official Murena Phone with official support takes so long. Reason for me to buy directly from Murena Shop now exactly 3 years ago was the (false) promise to receive fast upgrades and long time security updates.
For now we have an obsolete A12 (S) version with no longer security updates; no confirmation too how long this stays this way…

Why isn’t the Tercube Emerald (and the 2020 model) NOT in the list of offcial devices receiving upgrades?

The official Stock Rom from Teracube last year received A13 and since this march 2025 they have rolled out A14.
To say it the polite way: I’m a ā€œlittle disappointedā€ in the way we Teracubers are receiving software support. Also no reaction from @Manoj on any question (I’m not the only one asking) on the forum about this subject. Just silence.
Only thanks to the topic starter whe now finally have some news and hope. I was already preparing things for the installation of the A14 rom from Teracube. This Emerald is my daily driver with banking apps and so on. Can’t wait much longer…

The devices which we sell or have sold on our shop are always on our list of candidates for OS upgrades. The only difference is that the official builds require a OTA OS upgrade. This is complicated development and requires a lot of time. We still have devices like released in 2016 on our list. The teracube devices have not been abandoned. We have just not reached a stage where we can announce the release of their upgraded builds.
On the question of me not answering the questions. I do get a lot of queries posted publicly and DMs every single day and may sometime miss out on some responses. It is not intentional.

Thanks for the keeping us posted!
As mentioned in other threads, the delay in the update to A13 is unfortunately causing some apps to stop working.
Could you please:

  1. let us know what is the best place to look for update on that topic?
  2. ask whether updating microG on the current A12-/e/OS-s could be checked to see whether this would at least solve the issue of non-working apps until we can switch to /e/OS T or U?

Thanks for your help!

The updates and progress on these devices would be shared in the weekly reports.
For apps that do not work it is best to raise an issue in gitlab.
If you have a problem creating a gitlab account let me know.

Hi,

I’m concerned about the security and future of my Teracube 2e Emerald stable.
I’d like to make sure I’ve understood the team’s comments correctly.

For version 3.1.1-s, which I have installed, it says on Sign in Ā· GitLab

But after the update, I notice:

Does this update only apply to apps, or have the August security updates been ported to Android 12?
Thank you for clarifying that.

ā€œWe still have devices like released in 2016 on our list.ā€ Our planet, the community, and I thank you for this this wonderful and magnificent work.

ā€œThis is complicated development and requires a lot of timeā€ Okay, I don’t doubt that, but regarding the version, we were at the same point in May 2024: [Certified] Android 13.0.2 for Teracube 2e / upgrade e/os?

Thank you again for your work, but I believe it is becoming urgent if the security patches are not applied.

Have a good weekend.

Hi, I haven’t heard back from the team, but I found the information myself.

My Teracube 2e Emerald Stable, purchased from Murena, unless I’m mistaken, has only had software updates, no security updates, since March 2025. I’m putting my smartphone away in a drawer, hoping for a fix and/or a quick upgrade.

wow, this is indeed extremely concerning… @Manoj could you ask the dev team about how serious the potential consequences of this could be? (sorry, I know this is not your responsibility but you seem to be the only one we can ask)

Shared the concern with the developers. They are planning on the upgrade OS and security patches. Will update once I have some ETAs to share.

Came here to the forum to see if the Teracube 2e will ever be updated beyond Android 12 and this seems to be the only thread where it is being discussed.
I wish the news was more encouraging.
@Manoj said ā€œWe still have devices like released in 2016 on our list.ā€
Are they saying we should be prepared to wait 8 more years for the update to be made? I hope I’m misunderstanding since that’s clearly unrealistic. I’m not sure how else to take it though.

I have liked using murena for the most part, but this is becoming an issue. The Teracube 2e is on Android 15 now. I’m not sure I can even switch to Teracube OS since I bought it from murena with /e/OS installed. I’m wondering if continuing to wait for /e/OS to be updated is worth the risk/inconvenience though.

Would love to hear how anyone else is considering similar issues.

Thanks.

7 days ago this was written maybe ask again about l it in current weeks update

Unless I missed something I see no mention of any upgrade to higher Android version for Teracube in upcoming 3.2 e /OS update. Looks like maƱana maƱana

You missed maybe this:

I did miss that and that’s a little bit encouraging. But as far as I can tell Teracube isn’t advancing past Android 12 in upcoming 3.2 update. I wouldn’t mind if I was wrong about that too.

November, 3.2 still the same… And apparently still nothing on the forum, so when???
