Hi,
I think FP is a Wonderfull phone (because of itās philosophy)
There is just one things that I should be possible:
de-googolized it.
And, it seem is possible.
Does anyone know \e o.s. for phone?
Or similar?
Then I should know, if it is possible to change it in FP3
You can actually buy a phone from the efoundation with /e/ and then get OS support. If you buy from Fairphone and install /e/ you would have to reinstall Android 10 FOS for support.
The Easy Installer is just that, a supposedly easy way to overwrite Android 10, so it is like a factory reset hence save your data as all will be wiped to install /e/ (EOS)
@amoun so I have to āeraseā all my phoneā¦
Does someone had try it?
I would speak with himā¦I would check how it could be difficult (I am not a so young āgeek)ā
But I would change provider (google knows too many things of me and try to drive me too much!)
Effectively yes. When installing a different operating system the old is overwritten hence the need to save your data (images, recordings, contacts etc) maybe to an SD card that has been formatted as an external drive. Then after the change of OS you can reinstall from the SD card. You can use a computer to do the save and transfer.
As to actually using the āE Easy Installerā goes I have no idea I use the default Android 10 without a Google account etc.
And what Google knows Google and Microsoft and all others know and it wonāt go away ~ they have the data now. What you can do is to have as little data connection as possible, but that often means being a little bit more hands on with the options mentioned in the previous posts. I canāt be that bothered, Iāve more entertaining things to do than worry to much about what data Google is gathering.
a Sailfish swims happily for like 3 years on my good old Fairphone 2. Before doing so however make sure to backup Fotos, contacts, calender, etc. (and donāt forget about Android keys). You can use the ADT tool for that. (I did a second file based backup back then - just to be on the safe side)
Apart from that the process shouldnāt be much different:
Install Fairphone FPOS (THIS WILL WIPE YOUR DATA!)
Install TWRP (a bootloader basically that enables the so-called ārecoveryā partition where the /e/ OS will be installed)
Install /e/ OS (via ADT again)
( Think it sounds more complicated than it actually is. )
sorry,
1 - what is āSailfishā?
2 - fotos, contact and calendar are all on Google, do you mean something else?
3 - whatās Android keys?
4 - whatās ADT? (Can you send me a link?
5 - whatās FPOS?
6 - whatās TWRP?
as you can see, I donāt know much about this operationā¦but I would do.
Can you help me?
Another operating system. Donāt mind that ā start with /e/OS
2 - fotos, contact and calendar are all on Google, do you mean something else?
Thatās fine apart from the Android (license) keys, which legitimate you to use Android on your Phone. The adb backup tool should do that for you. You download and install ADT (Android Developer Tools) on your Windows(?) machine.
3 - whatās Android keys?
Thatās the forementioned license keys ā Android wonāt run without them!
Yes please to mind Sailfish. Its a super OS from Jolla and we need to have more people who would like to have it as base. Especially as it is TOTALLY without google. I had Sailfish on my FP2 and on my Xperia next to that I owned their mobile as well.
Hi Renato,
maybe it is a good idea to get in touch with a fairphone angel.
As I can see the next angels to Perugia are in Padova. Itās 350km away from you, but you can contact them by email: padova@fairphone.community
More information about fairphone angels you can get here
