🇫🇷 🇬🇧 You had peace of mind x minutes / Votre fairphone depuis x années

[Florence_Arnaud]

Hello,

On my fairphone bought almost two years ago, I stayed at version 5.1 of Android. I would like to update but it seems to me that I would lose the widget “your phone for years x” and “you had peace of mind x minutes” this gadget was a feature of fairphone well in the mind of this phone . Is it possible to find it with the latest update. Thank you for your reply.

Bonjour,

Sur mon fairphone acheté il y a presque deux ans, je suis resté à la version 5.1 d’Android. Je voudrais mettre à jour mais il me semble que je voudrais perdre le widget “votre fairphone depuis x années” et “vous avez eu l’esprit libre x minutes” ce gadget était une caractéristique de fairphone bien dans l’esprit de ce téléphone. Est-il possible de le trouver avec la dernière mise à jour? Merci pour votre réponse.

The wearefairphone community is/was working on that and releasing it on F-Droid, but it doesn’t seem like there was a lot of progress lately:

Thank you, I have to go open source and be patient
no solution in sight for android?

You wouldn’t need to use Fairphone Open OS to be able to install the apps if/when they get released - if that’s what you meant by ‘going open source’.
