I’m owning an FP1, currently running 1.8.5 w/Google Apps, and today I decided to follow the upgrade…
I went to Fairphone Upgrade, where I was suggested to upgrade to 1.8.7: I tapped “Installer la mise à jour” (French), and there it went for the file download, so far so good. Then I tapped “Redémarrer” (reboot), and the phone rebooted to a spinning Android sphere that said something like “Installing system files”. I was a little puzzled because I didn’t see any progress bar, as I did during a previous upgrade. Then it rebooted again, and I was hoping to be about to re-install the Google Apps, but I noticed that the update actually didn’t seem to have taken place When launching Fairphone update again, it showed 1.8.5 as current, and offered to update as if nothing had changed.
Can you explain this ? Should I retry ? Should I carry out some verifications before ?
Keeping the phone on the charger and changing the developer options did not do the trick for me. After rebooting I can enter a sort of bios where I can select different options (restart, update from cache, etc). They don’t do anything for me though. Any ideas?
But you don’t see a resting robot and the “no command” message?
Maybe you could still try to get to recovery mode from there and then follow this guide:
