Flashlight turns off automatically

Dear community (and hopefully dear reading Fairphone-developers as well!)!

I know the bug was discussed here before (see Flashlight turns off automatically and Fairphone 5 schaltet Taschenlampe nach kurzer Zeit selbständig aus ) already more then two years ago, but since there has not been a fix, I want to express my discontent about it, and open it again for discussion. As for @Hannah_Rutledge , I really gave a thought of returning the phone for that reason! And almost a year later now, it regularly spills oil in the fire of my anger over the phone.

The suggestions of the above mentioned thread don’t work on my phone, so please, please dear Fairphone-developers, FIX THIS BUG!!

To give it some weight, if it is a problem for you as well, please give this thread a heart-marking or reply! (I assume, the 4200 views of the above mentioned topic show a big dark figure of people, who are suffering from this but quietly endure the bug but having it coin their opinion of the way the company is dealing with their demands…

I wish you all a happy 2026!
