@Fairphone_CM did you forget to release? :slight_smile:
Usually we have a 50-75% user range getting the update right away, and for a simple security release I would assume you don’t roll out to only a minimum in the beginning, stricter than usually?

Well, I just let my phone look for updates again and it lists me the new one (but I’ll leave it for later). So they released it, indeed.

Same here. Thank you for the nudge to check again :slight_smile:

@janweiss We’re rolling it out gradually to make sure it works smoothly across all operators & regions.

Got it this morning, went well (small update but happy to see that my FP5 displays the notification now)

Not sure if that’s update related but my FP5 got recently slightly less responsive. The 3 button Navigation is not reliable, the buttons change colour to white, sometimes there is no reaction at all. The keyboard is slow to react (FUTO).
Clearing Quickstep often helps (I am using Niagara launcher).

Posting here in case that’s software related, don’t mind moving it to an entirely new place:)
