Sorry to hear this, this bug is new for me. Can you be a bit more precise please? Do you use a first or second batch Fairphone? Did you upgrade from 1.3?
It would be great if you could make a video of it, so I can pass it on to the development team.
Thanks for your concern. Yes I upgraded from 1.3 with the Fairphone Uploader. And I have a first batch Fairphone. I made a small video to show you the flickering. The only “clear” screen is the start-screen with the Fairphone-Logo. How can I send you the video? The Upload-button doesn’t allow mp4.
I ran update and repartitioning yesterday and after restoring a backup with Ritanium nackup I ran into a problem with some apps (like cccleaner) aborting installation in the play store due to insufficient memory…
So I cleaned up gapps, reflashed 1.6 and now I want to reinstall gapps. The widget however fails to download the file with error 1004. Is the server down? Does anyone have a direct link to the zip file? I already tried flashing an older gapps file from 1.3 but that failed so I’m stuck at the moment.
I am on a working wifi network and managed to reinstall the 1.6 update. Now I need to install gapps, which fails. Tried rebooting too. I’d even try downloading via my mobile data connection but it won’t let me, only works via wifi.
Pictures are fine also, but if you could upload a video somewhere (Wetransfer for example) and send the link in a support request via www.fairphone.com/support we can have a more thorough look. Please mention my name in the support request, so my colleagues can send it to me if they see the request first.
Installed the update and GPlay on my FP1 (had to take the alternative route, but that worked). Now logging in to my Gmail-account I get messages that “Google Play-services … is not supported by my device”:
After clicking OK I seem to be able to open and view my mailbox anyway, but the message will be annoying if it keeps coming up.
Bug? or did I miss some instruction?
Update seems ok until now, CONGRATS! But taking some time to test today.
Greetz, Herm
I’m trying to update a 2nd batch FP from 1.5 to 1.6, but it doesn’t work. I tried it 3 times already, twice from the main screen of the updater and once from the OS database. The software downloads and I get the Android installation screen for a couple of minutes, FP then restarts and I’m still with version 1.5.
Are you sure you used the Google Apps Installer widget? And not the Play widget? Try again by dragging the Google Apps Installer widget to your homescreen.
I tried the update on my FP1U. Download is ok but if it wants to install I got the notice “Superuser für Fairphone updater verweigert” - in english it should be something like “Superuser for Fairphone updater denied”. Configuration for superuser should be to get a confimation screen. Whats going wrong?
At least update work for me with a first edition FP. Thanks for it

Update via updater works not expected, cause i couldn’t choose storage partition option. Normal installation just started… I was going on with manually installation.
Restore with backup app is not simple as it was descriped. Cause non free apps couldn’t be restored. Just have to download them again with customization
