@Fairphone_CM I was wondering what is included in this update. Because when I checked the Security Bulletin linked, it does not state that any of the fixes are for Android 13. Although some of the fixes do not state any version of Android where it applies for. So is it for the fix of the StrongBox component only?

Can’t see it published here: https://support.fairphone.com/hc/en-us/articles/18896094650513-How-to-manually-install-Android-on-your-Fairphone Are the manual install binaries delayed?

It can take a few days as always

Hi @littletijn :slight_smile: As stated in the release notes this is only a security patch update, so no fixes.
