Previous 5 releases & user feedback
Do not post test build information on the forum
-
Please do not post information or links to /e/OS test builds on the forum.
-
These 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
-
If you are genuinely interested in helping with the testing activities and also understand how to fix and do some minor level of testing on custom ROMs, you are welcome to join the testing team

As part of the testing team, you can share your comments on the dedicated testing telegram channel.

How to check the NextCloud version click here
You can find the complete documentation and current NC version under Login – Murena >> NextCloud xx user documentation. The xx should show the latest version.
- Another way to check the current version is to check the NextCloud scan link and input https://murena.io this should display the current version number as well as the security level.
Please note, if MurenaCloud patch number is not the same as the NC patch number, the rating would show up as bad \U0001f610 This is not exactly a problem. We do not immediately jump to the next NC patch as soon as it is released. We first test it and then set out with the deployment.

GSI OS version will next move to T or A13 skipping the R and S . Team is working on /e/OS T GSI. Will share release dates once available

Our definition of an OS OTA upgrade
Usually for /e/OS ROMs to upgrade the OS you have to do the following
-
If available, download the correct OS build from the supported device list
-
For some devices, you also need to download the stock ROM from the vendor site.
-
Take a back-up of your data
-
First install the Stock ROM
-
Next, install the /e/OS ROM. Here you can take help of the installation guides available on our documentation site.
-
If required, apply the back-ups you downloaded before starting the whole process
An alternate to this tedious process is where we offer the user the option to upgrade the OS OTA. This option is available for stable device builds only.
This process is easy for the user but requires a lot of development and testing effort.
