But there is a difference between not getting what you expected in a purchase and something more or less breaking after 3 months. Again this is a major malfunction.
I am not opposed to change. If FP wishes they can roll over updates all day.
But this seriously impairs many users. With potenially financial or personal losses. So at least some updates and the assurance that this is being treated as an emergency is the least that is expected. And this is at the moment not happening. Instead I get useless messanges from FP concerning my Help Ticket.
Your so called ‘appreciation’ seems like just a put down and an unworkable notion where the purpose is to address specific people who voice their disappointment in a particular post.
if you do not want to continue there or here I cannot help you.
If you do have further issues about my ‘philosophical’ interventions and you deem them annoying you could message me privately. That would help keep the topic focused on the people asking for support be that advice on hardware, software or feelings.
I guess it is just you who has the need to share your feelings, your personal interests and philosophy, which are about 80 % of everything you post on the forum, especially in this thread. How many times have other users in here asked both of us to keep this discussion focused on troubleshooting the issues that are mentioned here? As a friendly reminder, would you please stop your philosophical input and focus on troubleshooting? Thank you!
Yet you continue ~ although you profess to not want to.
I have no problem responding to you either, however, as previously mentioned I have tried to address this issue for you elsewhere but it seems more to your liking to question the relevance of philosophy being of any use here.
Well just stop replying to each other. You both seem like kids both wanting to have the last word.
Amoun you said yourself you so not have this issue. So it is easy for you to wax philosaphical. And you did apparently not think of all implications, like missed calls.
I already almost suffered nameable financial losses due to this bug. And other people also work on a by call basis. So yes we keep asking for updates on this and keep reporting the bug. Maybe the more people report it, directly naming consequences the more seriously this is being taken.
There maybe other scenarios I haven’t imagined too. One thing I do imagine is that quality control haven’t imagined every scenario on every network etc.
I wax philosophically about my own traumas too, and yes I get the kids comparison too, but it’s not an age issue or a generational one.
What else to do when someone streams their personal losses. I am not here to ignore people?
Of course unless you have a suggestion as to how I should respond take that as a rhetorical question.
But in regards to:
I don’t get or support the notion of we, you may want to define such a group.
Regarding the ‘keep asking’ I don’t see how it is going to help. I’m sure Fairphone have got the message and bombing them with more to read is going to take more time and upset them…
Transferring your upsettedness to Fairphone is what prompts my philosophical response as I don’t see you doing yourself, or selves if you prefer, any benefit unless you consider having your situation discussed more makes you feel better.
So whereas I agree with @Incanus regarding any software solution this does not imply you can’t voice your frustration, but then here we go . . .
There is absolutely no need that you respond to each and every tiny little comment. This is not helpful but just spamming/crowding posts, making it almost impossible to find the important parts.
And please do not respond to this, just think about it.
Yeap! Thought about not replying but changed my mind.
You could have sent a private message to me if you want my attention but you chose to make a public request that I change my behaviour, but I won’t respond to your personal insults I can handle that.
So, here we are … I moved some stuff from Software Update: 3.A.0129.20210805 to this new topic here.
Please bear with me, I tried to be as sensible as I can about what to move and what to leave as well as how to keep some context on both sides. So sorry to every post feeling like it doesn’t belong.
I’m not entirely content with the title yet, so feel free to edit it or to suggest something.
The real risk is to tend to the screen so much while driving. If you can’t figure things out there instantly, then look at the [expletive] road! There are signs.
And what if you miss a lane? It happens. You’ll survive. Which cannot be said for every accident imaginable with drivers not paying attention to the road.
Edit: Just to be clear … I wasn’t there, I’m not criticising what you personally did or didn’t do, I’m just giving a different general risk assessment for a screen demanding attention.
Thank you for the comment, but it was not very helpful for me.
Yes, there is audio output of the navigation app, and there are also traffic signs, but in my case both did not help (there are 2 turn-right-lanes but I took the wrong one, because I could not see anything on the screen).
But this was not the intention of my posting.
When you enter a tunnel, then the navigation app automatically switches to a dark mode. And when the brightness is reduced to zero on the dark mode, then you can not see anything on the screen.
This could be dangerous, because some people might try to pull down the notification area and to increase the brightness.
They lose focus of the road, and this can cause accidents.
So I wanted to point out that this bug should be fixed, because it could be dangerous.
I get your concern and frustration but also the challenging comments about using and relying on the phone.
The danger is not in the phone. although using at you suggest could be dangerous, but don’t hold out for a quick fix. If the phone doesn’t adapt you will have to no doubt
Even if there was an aggressive wasp in the car, the driver must not panic/lose focus on driving and handle the situation professionally… (Sorry for off-topic, but as a driver it has been important to me to clarify.)
Although you’re having interesting and valid discussions, it’s not quite the right place here. Please try to avoid off-topics discussions, or open another topic if you really wish to continue them
