The snapdragon 801 is a 32bit CPU. Have you tried installing the 32bit version?

25

Thanks NicoM and ungutknut. I just realized that and installed the correct file…voila!!!google play store is installed. however, i get the error, google play store is ended every time i open it.

You can try to reboot in recovery again and wipe Dalvik cache. Not sure at all it will do the trick but…

27

Disable location and try again.
There seems to be a conflict.

Update went smooth using method 1 in the instructions.

If you’re done using Fairphone Open Source OS, you can always go back to Fairphone OS.

Method 1: Using Fairphone Updater
This is the easiest way to go back to Fairphone OS. Make sure you are connected to a Wi-Fi network before you start.

  1. Open the Updater app.
  2. Tap ‘Enter advanced mode’.
    3 …

I want check this option but i can´t find “Enter advanced mode” in Updater app.

Hello everyone!
Just one question : is the GPS working in the os os?

35

GPS works fine for me. Usually I get a fix within seconds. Sometimes it takes a bit longer and sometimes SatStat says that I’m already connected to a few Satelites but I still don’t have a fix. All in all my worst TTFF (time to first fix) was about 1 minute.

Advanced mode is missing for me too, but I think it’s already like this since FP OS 1.2.8

@paulakreuzer How can i go back to Fairphone OS?

37

Either try Method 2 under Going Back using fastboot, or dowload FP2-gms43-1.2.8-ota-from-open.zip and open it with the updater.

The clock-widged has now a bigger margin.
Before update i could place 3 lines of icons underneath the clock.

Can’t you make it smaller by long pressing on it?

41

If i press long on it, i can move it.
But its already on the top of the screen.

Now its on the center:

You can notice the margin on the top and bottom of the widged and i can’t place an icon on the “free” space.

42

Don’t you get these white points to change the size?

Hello everybody,

I am using FPOSOS for about one week now (first beta now the officially released 16.04). I really love to be without google.

But never the less currently the limitiations should not be underestimated.

I think the development team should think about integrating µNLP or at least make it possible to use the non-patched µNLP.

In additon I am missing an alternative for fused. But that might be a task for microG developers.

Finally I would like to thank all Fairphone OS OS developers and all the great developers of microG, XPosed, … !

from where can i get xposed-v83-sdk22-arm.zip ?
