I did the update yesterday and can’t use my Fairphone since then. Same problem as reported by others. I had OpenGApps installed but it broke some updates before. I newer get it to work again.
I tried several things listed here to fix it like booting without cards or safe mode without success.
Then i manually updated TWRP to be able to decrypt /data
davidak@unibook:~$ sudo fastboot flash recovery Downloads/twrp-3.1.1-0-fp2.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (12204 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.385s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 1.211s]
finished. total time: 1.596s
but it was still version 3.0 where “crypto is not included in the build”. i executed the same command again and was able to decrypt /data directly at start.
so i was able to do a TWRP backup, but it is some special container format and i’m not sure how to extract files.
i copied files from internal storage to my pc with this command:
adb pull /data/ ff2_data
so if you need logs to fix this issue i can provide everything you need.
Than i flashed the proprietary OS because i need some apps from play store at work.
It still doesn’t boot. Fairphone Logo start screen forever after “Starting Android”. Maybe the data partition with unkompatible apps is still present.
Recovery Mode also don’t work anymore. Instead it shows this broken Android:
I executed sudo fastboot -w
to format the data partition, but it didn’t help. Is there another way to do it?
I flashed the open OS again like described here. That worked since the linked version is still 17.04.0. I can receive calls and push message from our server monitoring, so i can work again. but i don’t have time to install other apps again.
This situation is a total desaster. I wasted my whole weekend and was not reachable by phone, but that was needed for my work. I also have a problem to recommend this device to friends and justify it to my employer!
Update 16.7.17: The bugreport is one month old and nothing happened. I contacted the support.
