Hello
I have a Fairphone 3 since over three years. Today, with nothing happening (fall or anything else) it suddenly got unusable as the screen flash as in the uploaded video and I cannot do anything (cannot restart manually- tried to restart by removing the battery, and once re-started it did the same thing)
Cannot upload the video for some reasons, I uploaded it here in this notion page Notion – The all-in-one workspace for your notes, tasks, wikis, and databases. )
Any idea on what could be the problem and what a soultion could be?
Thanks in advance
Giulio

wondering if this is somehow connected…
Hello!
I am Giulio, fierce advocate of Fairphone since I started using one, 3 years ago, a Fairphone 3. I still am, but I would like to ask to the community help with the following issue (surely it’s an easy one, just I am not technical and I didnt find any answer n the forum - probably didnt look enough):
I had almost zero problems in these 3 years, a year ago I changed the bottom piece where the charger goes because it was not chargin well all the times, in general some annoyance with blueto…
didnt watch the video, however would start with disassembling and cleaning contact.

What part of the phone did you clean?
It was quite dirty, full of dust and small dirt pieces, so I just gave a general clean, no piece in particular!

The phone is not dust proof. Good to know. Thanks
