Hi guys, I’m a newbie trying to install TWRP on my FP3 (to sequentially install /e/OS), but I received the following error message: “Remote: Partition table doesn’t exist.” Before, I’ve successfully installed adb and flashboot and downloaded the twrp.img file from this website: [ https://eu.dl.twr…

Hi Ingo, thank you for the links! I’ve read them through before, but I wasn’t quite sure whether this would solve my problem. I don’t just want to boot TWRP, but install it. From the second link it looks like one needs to apply the installer first?! But how do I do this? The same way as the .img fi…

[image] Kat: I don’t just want to boot TWRP, but install it. Install instructions are here … Fairphone 3 . In case it isn’t clear yet … installing TWRP instead of just booting it on the Fairphone 3 will break automatic OS updates in Fairphone OS, and there is no recommendable (let alone offic…

Ah, so I have to boot it first to be able to install it, is that correct? I thought it was either or (depending on whether I wanted to just boot or install it). Thanks for the warning, I’m aware of that. But since I want to install /e/OS anyway, this shouldn’t bother me, no? Thanks!!

So now I was running adb (command “adb”) and then “adb devices” to check whether it would recognise my phone. It did, but with the comment “unauthorized” next to it. I googled and found this page: https://www.addictivetips.com/android/fix-adb-device-unauthorized-message-android/ I followed the inst…

[image] Kat: I followed the instructions, but after flashing fastboot and adb I wasn’t able to get access to the stock OS (android 9) anymore (it just wouldn’t go beyond the 4 blue moving dots since flashing). And now both adb and fastboot aren’t working anymore either. The adb command only …

Oh, cool! Thanks a lot! I have asked for help in the forum and I’m lucky to have 4(!) fairphoneangels in my home town :)) - hopefully one of them will take the challenge and help me with this. :sweat_smile: Fastboot seems to work, but when running the command “adb reboot bootloader” I get the error…

Sorry, I hope I don’t annoy you too much, but I just managed to boot TWRP! Since I did not download the /e/OS zip-file onto my phone (only my Mac), I used the Terminal to unzip it and now it asks me whether I want to replace the ramdisk-recovery.img (options: yes, no, all, none, rename). These instr…

[image] Kat: Fastboot seems to work, but when running the command “adb reboot bootloader” I get the error message “no devices/emulators found” which didn’t happen before I tried to reset adb. Fastboot and ADB don’t work at the same time. As you said you can’t boot Android just now this would…
