I’m very sorry to say that I am a bit disappointed about my FP 2 overall. I got mine in april 2016. After some other (and resolved) issues over the years, the phone is now getting worse and worse every day. Very very slow, apps get stuck, battery empties quickly en gets very hot. Any other phone I …

I had experienced the very same you did with FP2 (mid 2018 untill now). I gave FP3 a try nonetheless in early 2020 and I can say that as so far, the FP3 it the best phone I ever had. Very stable in software and hardware though in heavy 24/7 use. :+1: Just my experience.

I think the factory reset is a good idea. Phones don’t just magically become slow as time goes on unless there’s a hardware issue, which is unlikely. We know that FPOS as well as FPOpen run smoothly on other phones, so a factory reset really should fix whatever’s come unstuck in your operating syste…

I do have FP2 bougth same time as you did and experienced the same issues, but it was not the hardware. I Installed lineage and i enjoyed a clean, very long running phone again. If you can live without google and accept a reset, thats the way to go, as it delivers Android 10: https://wiki.lineageos.…

You did understand me right - I just have not tried to find alternatives for FP3 yet - so thanks for your hint. On FP2 if removing apps does not work, and a factory reset is needed anyway (as i understood is the case here) - than there is so much benefit in Android 10 vs stack rom, that i would def…

Hello Pacia, You don’t know HOW different the FP3 is from the 2! Believe me, I had a 2 and managed to change it (long story) for a 3. It’s so much better… To quote (more or less) someone (apolize that I don’t remember the name) ‘FP1 did not worked, FP2 buggie, and FP3 is a phone’. I’m very happy w…

I have had my first FP, FP3, for two weeks now. Very good experience compared to other (nonethical) smartphones I used to have. Works smoothly, camera not as good as with my previous phone (Motorola One Vision) but quite decent, battery sufficient, etc. I hope it will continue like this, I am with F…

Let’s not forget, there were, and still are, also FP2 owners that were not disappointed, like myself (4 years and counting).

Thank you, rmf, I will try a factory reset. I think that more problems began when I upgraded my primair camera to a 12mp version. The phone gets very hot in the topcorner. When a reset does not work I might be visiting you in Leiden. Patricia Verzonden vanuit Mail voor Windows 10 [09A99FBB810A4…
