Availabe in Sweden with Hallon (tre). Update wenr t well but again VoWifi and 5g get enabled after the restart. Not sure if on purpose or a bug.
Glad to see many of the annoyances fixed!
Thanks for the good work!

I lost mobile data on both SIMs right after the update (on my FP6). My Mint SIM for the US and my Telcel SIM for Mexico completely stopped working, even though both were fine before updating. Now I have no mobile data connection at all.

50/50 here. One Fairphone 6 is fine, the other one does not connect to Mobile. However, there is a major T-Mobile outage right now and my carrier rides that network in the USA, so I’m thinking that is the issue.

Please dont duplicate further and keep the discussion in the respective topic

As of 7am on the 28th of July, I can confirm that the connectivity issue on my wife’s phone was T-Mobile related and NOT due to the software update.

Just weird timing due to the T-Mobile outage and Fairphone update happening at the same time. It only affected one phone of the two we own.

I’ve gone ahead and marked the “Update went well.”

I hope your issue has resolved as well @richyboycaldo

Got the update today afternoon, 2 days after. DIGI is my carrier.

After the update, the phone did not ask for my SIM card pin, so my SIM card was permanently disabled. I restarted again, and it asked for my SIM pin so it all works again.

After this, Play store didn’t load the first time, it showed just a black screen “There was an error, try again” (First time I ever see this). It loaded normally when I pressed try again. Then I tried to update my apps and nothing was updating. it all worked well once I turned wifi off and on again, so it still seems to not be working very well. This issue isn’t new though, so it isn’t caused by the update.

I will edit my post if something new pops up, I marked it as “Update went well” so far.

So, again as previous updates WIFI Calling was disabled. Also no connection to mobile network.

After enabling WIFI Calling and 2nd reboot funktion displayed in status bar and also mobile network connection works again.
