Software update: FP4.SP25.B.058.20230318

So far I did not receive the update yet, still stuck on February 5, 2023

Best to state which network and where you are, the roll outs are not instant for everyone.

yon the forum topic that confirms it’s being provided there is the caveat

The Netherlands: t-mobile

Great to see an update. But for me it looks like the position of the Wallet shortcut on the lock screen has been “improved” by making it disappear?

I think it’s because of the Easter weekend, Dutch carriers haven’t pressed on the OK button yet.

i have just created another thread and will delete or resolve it if i get some help, i received the update yesterday and initiated it this morning… see: Cannot open my phone after OS update
i cannot access my phone.

Tuesday april 11, still no update

Some instances can be weeks in the tweeking,

I wonder if the update will come in the Netherlands, still nothing

It may be best to #contactsupport and your carrier for more information.

Edit: @Paul88 I have the update now, maybe your carrier released it as well.

Today I received the update!

Is there any news on the full system image of FP4.SP25.B.058.20230318? I need the boot.img for rooting. Thanks a lot! :slight_smile:

Can’t help you with the full factory images (you can create them by merging the older ones with the OTA updates, if you need them), but I can offer you the latest boot.imges

It would be helpful having the same numbers for the update on the phone and in the forum. When the update message appears, I always look for the corresponding forum thread. But this failed this time (maybe also earlier, because it was always a mess finding the thread, but didn’t find the cause). The reason was, that my phone shows “SP25.B.0058”, whereas this thread only has one zero at the 58, the other figures seems not that problem. But with this exact search term (with quotation marks) there is no result (oh yes, there is a result in one posting in a very different thread)

It could be that the forum thread is a slight error ??

Can you show a screen shot of what your phone states ?

Where do you get this version info from?
In “settings - about - build number” it shows as in the topic of this thread for me.

Screenshot:

I was really bummed to discover that the Update does not fix this Bluetooth bug. My headphones have an aditional Bug that i have a small chance that when my Laptop disconnects from them, they keep repeating the “Connection Lost” sound until i restart my Headphones.

After restarting them, however, i need to get into the developer options to switch from aptX to AAC.

The Quickstep Launcher still causes problems. I’m having a hard time believing that these problems are hard to fix. The minimum display brightness is then turned down via update instead of correcting the error.

The launcher still has the problem that the header is displayed in the wrong color if you have previously scrolled down and started an app and then minimized or closed it. Then the header suddenly appears gray instead of black.

similar problem with light mode too. The header is also displayed in the wrong color here.

image

Darkmode colors are still wrong. white writing on a light blue background is just not legible.

in the bright mode, the contrast is as it should be.

I don’t think it’s rocket science to just match the colors. Please fix the problem! Please! This is your business card and the first impression you make.

I just can’t understand why you guys aren’t solving these little problems. The Fairphone 4 is used in our company as a test device. It should reflect how well it works in everyday life compared to an iPhone. How should you sell this software quality to your colleagues?

Instead of fixing problems, new functions are added.
It’s like replacing a car’s missing reverse gear with a reversing camera.
