Thank you for your SUPPORT

@MaartenD

Please report any (new) issues through the public bugtracker

That’s not really necessary anymore, I’d say. Rather “Please live with any (new) issues” from now on…
Anyway, thanks for supporting this device for such a long time! The update went smooth again, no (new) issues so far.

[Lorus]

Thanks for 7 years of support!
Update went smoothly.

• Is there a roadmap or a plan for how long the FPs after no. 2 will be officially supported?
• Is there an overview of mobile OSes there are?
  Maybe also which run on the FP2?
  Additionally, maybe which don’t inherit (?) from Android?

For a list see here #oslist

[Nepumuk]

When I search for it, I get a No..

[yvmuell]

why do you search when you have the link
and did you search the tag really?

[Nepumuk]

The second did only pop up after rechoosing the search string…
And yes, I typed ”#oslist“ first, then I ”Strg+Click“ed on the link in your post (15:30).

It’s a pity that you do not support FP OS anymore. From my point of view, this is not a sustainable decision. I have the phone since 5 years and want to go longer. But no support means, that I have to think about an other solution.

@Fohlenelf

I have to think about an other solution.

Does that include installing an alternate OS ?

[Fohlenelf]

Well, yes of course. I am thinking about Lineage OS but I have to first to learn how to do it.

Support for FP2 owners who would like to continue using their phones

A few weeks ago, Fairphone published the latest software update of FPOS This will be the last update to be offered for the FP2. While we all appreciate enormously the 7 year-long support for the FP2, this means that, in a few weeks’ time, many FP2s still in service and using FPOS and FP Open, will gradually become more exposed to security risks, and current bugs won’t get fixed. As Urs has said, a bittersweet moment. However, these devices can still be used with what I consider reasonable se…
