Hi,
I am pretty much in the same situation as Jo_na
( I bricked my FP3 and i hated it).
But the solution ( Fairphone 3 unlocking without oem unlocking) does not quite work for me.
with much of research in between the steps I did:
1.) updated to Android 10, in the settings of the preinstalled rom.
2.) installed Magisk and then TWRP apk, because Magisk couldn’t root from the app und I know about the work-around through flashing the Magisk.zip with TWRP
3.)unlock the oem by (/en/bootloader-unlocking-code-for-fairphone-3/) and (/hc/en-us/articles/360048646311-Manage-the-bootloader-of-your-FP3-FP3-) bulletin 1 to 3
4.)use fastboot to boot with TWRP, flash Magisk and then TWRP
5.)worked like a charm
6.)following the warning while booting, I locked the oem again (/en/bootloader-unlocking-code-for-fairphone-3/) and (/hc/en-us/articles/360048646311-Manage-the-bootloader-of-your-FP3-FP3-) point 4:
" fastboot oem lock"
7.)got the corruption warning, and the get stock in fastboot, cannot go to recovery or normal boot.
7.1)send an email to the Fairphone-support
8.) tried myself " fastboot oem unlock" and [Fairphone 3 unlocking without oem unlocking] which both unlocked the oem again BUT still cannot boot to TWRP using fastboot
user@linux$ fastboot boot twrp-3.4.0-0-FP3.img
downloading ‘boot.img’…
OKAY [ 0.793s]
booting…

finished. total time: 2.171s
also tried:

user@linux$ fastboot flash boot twrp-3.4.0-0-FP3.img

writing ‘boot’…

I am no Android expert, just want root to run Titanium Backup again and freeze some annoying goggle apps.
sigh, if I just didn’t lock the oem…
Any help is appreciated.
ps. sorry, as a new user I can only write 2 links in a post, so I deleted the domain so the text isn’t recognized as a link.
EDIT:
I also tried to flash the stock rom with fastboot. [TWRP installable stock firmware packages for Fairphone 3]
using:
user@linux$ fastboot update Fairphone_FP3_8901.2.A.0110.20200109_01092024_user_release-keys_2.zip
archive does not contain ‘android-info.txt’
error: update package ‘Fairphone_FP3_8901.2.A.0110.20200109_01092024_user_release-keys_2.zip’ has no android-info.txt
