[piero-e]

Thanks to our maniac-builder @Ronnz98
here is a first /e/OS v4.0 android 16 based alpha build for the FP5

[UNOFFICIAL BUILD] Fairphone 5 (FP5) for /e/OS-a16 4.x

A clear guide to Upgrade your /e/OS to a new Android major version without loosing /data

[e] (it is always recommended to first take a backup of your things in case) every months comes a new /e/OS version update, it is automaticaly applied “OTA” (Over The Air), but every years AOSP publish a new major android version, generaly /e/ toke a year to integrate it (they fisrt wait for LineageOS developpement and then apply their changes and make tests). If you are using a build from the “official” branch, AND if you are patient, you will receive the new android major version also OTA. …

from /e/ for the community (mostly Lineage official devices) :

/e/OS community FP5 download

from /e/ for Murena devices (FP5 was solded by Murena) :

/e/OS official FP5 download

Everyone please note that the term “official” in what piero has linked to today is a bit confusing. FP5 community is coming directly from Murena, but it is not the official build (version) that you get OTA (over the air) through the Updater (primarily when you have bought your Fairphone pre-installed with /e/OS). So it is only “official” in the sense that it comes Murena’s own developers, but not the official build. It’s the community build.
