My FP2: 6 years and counting

[Lidwien]

My Fairphone 2 is running on Murena Q stable version.

You can find stable versions for the Fairphone 2 on Murena (was /e) on https://images.ecloud.global/stable/FP2/ Mind you this is for Fastboot

The versions for adb sideload on
https://ota.ecloud.global/api/v1/FP2/stable (see the “url:” lines).

Why only two? @mal still keeps SFOS up to date on the FP2. Still using it as my daily driver.

Here’s a badge request:

Before the switch, I would love to join the “6 years FP2” club

Thanks so much!!
…and still using the transparent cover. It has some cracks, and missing edges as well, also the FAIRPHONE letters fell off, one after the other - but it still covers, yeay! And guess which color case I chose for FP5

Checked in at the Forum for advice before I give my 2017 FP2 the new OpenOS 23.02 update.
Guess I should also claim my six years badge.
Pretty confident I’ll get to 7 (Jan 2024) and I remain hopeful for 8.
No problems to report that would make me choose anything other than an FP next time. I get occasional random reboots, none for weeks then a day with several. Makes me wonder about the SIM contacts. Battery life still fantastic, with of course instant swap thanks to the spare I own.

Happy owner of a FP2 since 3 November 2017 using Fairphone OpenOS, then Sailfish, then LineageOS for microG.
In between my daughter had the FP2 and I was enjoying playing around with a new FP3 (LineageOS for microG), whilst testing /e/ on a FP3+ for my son.
As of 2021 I got my first FP2 back from my daughter who now uses the FP3, and I am still happy with it, knowing its shortcomings. I like the smaller size (than the FP3).
So only 6 years and counting, but it looks good for reaching the next anniversary as well.

I’ve moved your post here as I think it’s rather where it belongs to. Anyway - congrats for using it so long - and hopefully you’ll be able to post again into the 7 years topic in about 11 months!

I also just noticed that I made it to 6 years a while ago. Not sure I will make it to 7 as I got a Pine Phone Pro and I am in the progress of migrating over. However, so far my FP2 is still my main device while I get familiar with the new one.
