It may sound weird but how can I disable this update?
On my Fairphone 4 I read a âthreatâ that the update will be installed automatically in 29 days.
I donât want it now or in 29 days.
My Fairphone is rooted, that means there are a few things to consider for system updates.
In Developer options you can disable Automatic system updates.
This info is for people who know what they are doing. For most of us, including me, itâs important to install new versions whenever they become available; some people like to wait for a few days which is why the 29-day delay is there.
Yes, I updated my rooted FP4, too (from A.170 to A.175). For me it ran into a boot loop, however. So I updated the phone and re-rooted it afterwards. As I did not have a 175 Boot-Image at hand I did this with the 170 Boot-Image and that worked out well
For the next few weeks I am not at home. That is the real blocker.
I remember you described to process needed to update a rooted phone. But I couldnât find your posting. Would you mind to post it again and/or pointing me into re right direction?
The last ticket I opened said 5 to 6 working days (minimum)
Well the 18th was a Sunday so, 19, 20, 21, 22 we are only on day four. Youâll be lucky to hear much this year given 24, 25 26 which are weekends and holidays etc. etc. etc. 2023
Strange, I just noticed a couple of my FP4âs settings got reset after installing FP4.FP4I.A.175.20221207
This, or my phone is becoming sentientâŚ
After installing FP4.FP4I.A.175.20221207, settings like âimmediate fingerprint unlockâ and âautomatic WiFi switchingâ got reset to âonâ. Other settings stayed put though, fortunately.
Just a co-incident ~ I am just writing up on sentience and abuse but Iâm sure the secret is communictaion and the phone is just a vehicle for the word of Google.
The updates frequently mess up settings. I also gave up on Firefox shortcuts on the home screen. They are removed with every update. Also other settings sometimes get reset. Best is to #contactsupport.
I didnât notice any settings getting reset this time though. But it happens.
