Yes, as you mentioned, several updates and reboots pending, but still afterwards existing.
This existed in Android 12 too, I reckon it’s a stylized tally light.

Upgrade went through smoothly yesterday, and haven’t noticed any problems since. Also, I like how the margins at the top and bottom of my screen got smaller, there seems to be more space for actual content now. Cheers for another successful upgrade!

Any idea why phones with an Orange sim card would not receive the update? And would Orange phones without a SIM, or temporarily with a non Orange SIM suddenly receive the update?
To mee this seems to be random. The last Update (B.089) showed up at my phone almost 3 weeks after the release. C.073 now was there immediately.
However, I can say, this updates has fixed a lot of tiny problems. Such as one of my widgets which always disapeared on my (custom-) desktop after chargeing the phone. Fixed.
So far I did not experience any problem with Android 13. Rooting with Magisk also works like always.
So: thanks for the update!

So I got it figured out. Whatever launcher is active at startup determines whether the Themed Icons option is there. After that, the option will remain visible, even if the launcher is changed to one that doesn’t support Themed Icons.
Steps to reproduce:
- Set launcher to QS
- Reboot
- Note that themed icons can be selected
- Switch launcher to e.g. Microsoft Launcher
- See 3
- Reboot
- Note that themed icons can not be selected
- Switch launcher to QS
- See 7

Since the Android 13 update I have had a few problems,.
Holding the power button down doesn’t bring up the Shutdown menu, I have to shut it down with the quick menu option, I feel the vibrate but no menu comes up. If I hold it long enough the phone does shutdown though.
My bluetooth heart monitor is no longer working on any app, despite connecting ok.
On the lockscreen the media controls for my podcast app, spotify and vlc seem temperamental as often it seems to take 5 presses before it responds with either the play or pause button, other times it works first time.
I also still have the lack of response on the screen when it lays on a flat surface, I didn’t have this problem before the ghost touch fix (I never had the ghost touch issue).
None of these are major issue but annoyances that weren’t there before.

For me the update went OK. There is only one issue with Neutron Music Player that obviously cannot find flac files in A13, but that has nothing to do with FPOS
Thats a new Android 13 feature and can be changed back to previous behaviour, search the settings for “power”

Thanks for that. Slightly unfortunately, translation of settings means that you need to search for a translated term. In Dutch, it’s “aan/uit knop”.

For German it is:
“Ein-/Aus-Taste gedrückt halten”

It can be reached without searching via 'Settings > System > Gestures > Press & hold power button’. (I think thats useful information that can be more easily adapted thansearch terms for different language settings.)

Its possible that there is some incompatibiity with the specific 3G/4G/5G/whatever-Network used by Orange, which Fairphone wants to resolve before delivering the update to affected users without holding it back for everyone else.
Useful yes and still needs the same translation steps 
Hmm, not necessarily. I switched my german settings to english to find the setting because I didn’t realize it was sorted under ‘system’. Search only triggers on exact matches, navigation can be performed by humans reasonably well with fuzzy-patternmatching.
