/e/OS Devices

It has been over a year since an update was available for my FairPhone 4 with e/os/. I am currently on version 1.17-s-20231109350748-stable-FP4 which was updated Novermber 9, 2023. I keep checking for updates, but there are none.

Recently, with the App Lounge outage, the patches for.that were for much later uodates of e/os/. I moved to Aurora updater as a result, but it is frustrating to not have an updated operating system. v.1.17 is quite old.

Are there plans to ship.an update for this operating system? Is it a dead end?

(Hi Brad, I’m the one who suggested to you to ask here :slight_smile: )

I hope others here have more ideas, but my only one so far: Have you emptied storage and cache of the App Lounge app? Settings > Apps > All apps > App Lounge > Storage and cache This would reset the App Lounge.

EDIT: Nonsense, of course :see_no_evil: :face_with_open_eyes_and_hand_over_mouth: Still too much in the App Lounge issues train of thought. :roll_eyes:

You seem to have missed the Android version upgrade to Android 13 (T).

As a first step you might try Issues with the Updater and a solution.

If this is unsuccessful the method to do the manual upgrade was recently given here 2 identical FP4's one is stuck at e os 1.21.1 - #6 by piero

If you bought your device directly from Murena you could contact help desk if you can’t solve it by yourself
