Sorry, for the late answer, had some pretty busy days.
I restarted the FritzBox, no luck. But the Wifi is not completly broken, as I was able to connect to the guest Wifi at work without a hitch. But we use Unisys Acesspoints with WPA3, which are not really comparable.
I tried to switch security from WPA2 (CCMP) to WPA2+WPA3, no luck still (other devices still work fine). I guess it is some sort of incompatability between the A11 and my FritzBox, but I haven’t figured out what. Not really up for factory-resetting either, as its quiet a lot of work which I really don’t want to do right now.
OK I’m away from work for a few days, I work in the real fields cultivating and watching plants grow etc. computing/FP3 are pet habits.
I have the same setup and use WPA2 (CCMP)
Did you reset the SSIDs
As I tried messing with the Fritzbox although I hadn’t really changed anyhting, well that’s not true I did a reset at one point, I couldn’t connect and had to start again even though the password hadn’t changed etc.
Hello
I have a question regarding backgrounds.
- As far as I can see, there is no more distinction between the background of my phone (the screen with the apps
) and the lock screen. When changing images, it changes in both places to same image - Secondly, the image is not sizable (anymore). It’s cropped and I can’t make it fit to the screen
Any tips?
Hi and welcome to the forum.
By the way Rae is not a comon user of the forum and is only contacted in extreme case maybe where there has been no response to a support ticket, with nunber.
You are not really addressing Rae’s post and maybe not even an Andoird 11 issue 
Your Problem seems like a settings issue.
Settings > Display > Wallpaper > Select image > Click on Set wallpaper > Then select one of three options
- Home screen
- Lock screen
- Home screen and lock screen
I confirm this, except that from what I saw, this is was not possible on my device before I installed Simple Gallery Simple Gallery Pro | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository
I have two FP3+s
One with Simple Gallery, the other is a default Android 11 with Google Photos as I was doing beta testing and can confirm the same options exist without Simple Gallery
Ok, my bad. Thank you for the info.
Actually it is most likely that I had disable Google photo when I noticed that this option was missing. Maybe you need to have Google photo or Simple Gallery (or any other gallery app?).
I assume thats the same issue
A bit easier: long press on the wallpaper and then select an image and one of the three options. @KevinC for this way I guess a Gallery should not be required of you want to test?
Third Option: select the picture in the gallery and set as and select on of the three options.
For me all 3 Options work using Simple Gallerie and stock launcher. In the past there was a bug on the FP2 and I think probably also FP3 that some combinations of Gallery and Launcher did not work properly and indeed it was not possible to choose different wallpaper for lock and home screen…
I got the update a week ago. I didn’t reset anything after. With the exception of the removed (by Google) workaround for 5GHz WiFi problems it’s been 100% hassle-free for me. Even better, it has solved a long-standing Bluetooth problem where Bluetooth would be off after a reboot or plane mode and would refuse to turn on several times. It just works now. Also, my impression is that battery life is a bit better than with Android 10.
On the more negative side, they seem to have given up on lowering the minimum screen brightness. After the botched attempt and revert last August @formerFP.Com.Manager wrote that they’d re-introduce it soon, but that plan seems to now share the fate of the camera software improvements that were supposedly just around the corner back in September 2020.
Regarding WiFi, I had the expected disconnects as soon as my FritzBox selected a channel of 106 or above – with which none of the 9 non-Fairphone devices using 5GHz WiFi in our house ever had any issue. I’ve now fixed my FritzBox to channel 52 and will just have to live with unstable WiFi when I’m connected to someone else’s FritzBox. Oh well.

I wouldn’t despair just yet. The screen brightness thing is quite complex and might be dealt with now that the main job is done.

It’s an important thing to me too… I hope you’re right!

Hello everyone, unfortunately since the Android 11 update I encounter the problem, that VPN connections are not working anymore.
Neither PPTP nor IPSec PSK. Neither from mobile data nor from external WiFis.
I did not change anything on the VPN server and the connection still works from other devices 
I hope, you can help me.
Same here. I have an IPSec connection that always worked with Android 10, when I try now it just says “unsuccessful” (actually, “nicht erfolgreich”).
Welcome fpBGzSCKz
@uodalricus also:
I think you folks should prepare for a factory reset so make sure your backups are up to date.
For those interested, a good starting point:

last night i updated my one to 11 and it is missing screen recording
is there a fix or a way to force it to work
I’ve moved your post here as the missing screen recording was already mentioned in this topic. AFAIK there’s unfortunately no solution yet.

I downloaded Firefox and it was fine in that. Is there something I need to do in Chrome to reset?
You might try:
Settings / Apps and notifications / App info / Chrome / Storage and cache / Clear cache
Yes, I tried that. It didn’t work.
Thanks for your reply & first of all thanks for the tip with the Wallpaper App!
All 3 options to set a wallpaper are known to me. However, with none of them I’m getting the (3) options where to set it → background, wallpaper, both. It’s default on both. So a bug maybe?
