Due to the battery drain I often check the wifi status including the Wifi Scanning option (which sometimes becomes re-enabled) after the new update if I try to search in settings for ‘scanning’ I get no results, has this been removed?
Do you happen to mean:
Settings
- Developer options
-
- Always allow Wi-Fi Roam Scans
or
Settings
- Wi-Fi
-
- (Settings i.e. three dots in top right corner)
-
-
- Advanced
-
-
-
-
- Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep
?
- Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep

Hi, it’s the settings option mentioned on step 13 on this page
As I didn’t have the 3 dot menu on the location screen I just use the setting search feature to search for ‘scanning’ to get to the same screen. Or rather, I ‘used’ to use the search option.
Well, I don’t have them as well and I have turned location off generally, as I don’t want Google to track me. Therefore I am a bit reluctant to turn it on just for testing purposes.
But searching for “scanning” I get three results.
I really have no idea, why these settings are missing on your phone.
I suspect, you use location services, otherwise scanning is off anyhow.
Well, hopefully someone with more insight into the technical parts of Android can help you here.
it wasn’t that the option was removed, it was that the settings search function was broken. I just cleared the data of the settings app and I can find the scanning option again.

Hey, congrats!!
Glad for you.
Just odd, that kind of malfunction happened in the first place.
Hello @anon12454812, Are you aware of https://www.krackattacks.com/ ? The story is out there for quite a while already but I’m not sure if my phone is prone to this attack (haven’t tested what was displayed in https://youtu.be/Oh4WURZoR98)
Had a problem using the updater due to a stuck “TeamWin” screen after restart, but used method 2 https://code.fairphone.com/projects/fp-osos/user/fairphone-open-source-os-installation-instructions.html . I hope next time I can use the Updater again… Or do I need some fix on the Recovery Image?

Hi @OmeLuuk,
We are working to get this fixed ASAP; our intention is to release a fix earlier than our standard monthly patch - stay tuned!
Cheers

Anyone any idea on the other issue? This update also requires a manual install due to this screen:
It will not pass this point before my battery runs flat or the phone shuts down due to the raised temperature.
I suppose it is working hard in a loop, will I be able to read logfiles, or debug this situation with the updater?
Could be the same or similar issue as the one reported here for another version of TWRP - depends on whether you’re running adopted storage now, but were running the other form of storage before that:
