Android Auto fix for FP6 users pushed to v3.3
Location broken on FP3 fix coming with v3.3
Users reported Advance Privacy starting to work erratically yesterday. One suggestion was that it could be because of the Daylight saving switch. Temporary fixes shared in the same thread include disabling notification or data clearing . Issue reported to developers to resolve in code.
FP6 Random reboot issue
Issue reported on stock ROM as well. /e/OS developers are working with Fairphone developers for a resolution. Team has not been able to reproduce the issue. Request users facing this issue to share logs in the issue on gitlab . We are looking for details like the Service Provider details, information if reboot happened while travelling anything specific. Also wanted to confirm if the reboots started with v3.1.1 or were you experiencing them earlier as well.
Click the arrow on the left for details on the logs we require
We need two logs.
Log 1: Boot Sequence Log
The goal here is to capture the entire boot process, from the very start until the device is fully ready.
Trigger the Boot: Manually reboot the phone. Start the log as soon as the Fairphone splash logo is shown
adb logcat -b all > boot_log.txt
Stop the Log: Wait until you see the homescreen and the device is fully settled.
Log 2: Continuous Log until Issue Occurs
The goal here is to capture a long-running log that will catch the moment the issue happens.
Trigger the Boot: Manually reboot the phone. Start the log as soon as the Fairphone splash logo is shown
adb logcat -b all > continuous_log.txt
Reproduce the Issue: Do not stop the log. Keep it running until the phone automatically reboots on it’s own, ie. reproducing the issue mentioned
