Hi Kephson, I’ve just replied to your ticket. You are right, first reply time should be a couple of days. Working towards that! Sorry to keep you waiting.
Hey Theo, our apologies for not replying earlier. I have just sent you a reply, we’ll make sure we get you a decently working phone as soon as possible!
@anon48893843 thanks a lot for your reply but I’m not happy with it: All the time after I sent you my display module I can’t use my phone? Is that the way you would expect?
The display module makes problems from time to time but I’m not happy to send you the half phone and have to wait until you checked it and send me a new one.
If this process will take so long time it needed to get and answer… no… 
and the answer I got after I complained to you in the forum…
I’m new to FP2. Since the last update I’m facing an issue with the display of the FP2.
It starts to work and type by itself. Looks awesome when you try to enter a phone number and it looks the phone tries to type
So I raised a ticket. To get a feedback I had to call to the Netherlands.
I received a feedback on my request, please test this and that and afterwards raise the return request if the display is still faulty.
Done but maybe someone has an impression/idea.
I’m now since more than two weeks without my FP2 and it looks there is still now progress. My return request is not answered. Whats going on here?
Sorry to hear about your experience. Support is swamped unfortunately, but if you include your request number here you’ll get an answer soon.

Hi!
I have mailed you about my dead phone… I did it the first day and have trouble-shouted a lot since then. After searching on the forum some more people had the same problem, but non have solved the main problem (what’s broken?). I am of course interested in an answer, but most important is to get my phone back running again.
My ticketnumber: #113457
The thread where people have the same problem: Drained battery/ Start-up loop
I have tried a lot of different cables/chargers/computerslots/powerbanks… nothing helps!
I write here because I do not have time to wait the whole summer to have my phone working. It’s in summer I really need it, not knowing when I will sit at a computer for the next time and now just having an old half-working phone…
so is this the place to chase a support request? … if it is and this speeds it up great as i’ve been waiting over 3 weeks now with no acknowledgement or response. My phone is now defunct and i’ve had to buy another phone, so for all intent and purposes it was a wasted experiment with Fairphone.
Anyways, i’d still like it repaired please so i can either sell it, or wait for the many bugs to be finally fixed, and consider using it again. My ticket number is #109997
Hi,
Following the others, I’m attaching my unanswered ticket here, #112517.
At the beginning I was a bit disappointed about the missing of any feedback from the support but, after having read all this topic, I better realized that you are super-overloaded… I’m sorry for that and I really hope that you will be able to improve the support system. Even though here we are supporting a nice new idea and we knew that some risk can be connected to such ventures, nevertheless users hardly can accept to wait for so long time to get answers for a broken phone and even more to get it working again.
Cheers

Hi,
I don’t want to make a fuss, but it’s been two weeks since I raised my support ticket #112431. Any response would be appreciated. I understand that you’re very busy but I miss my fairphone! It’s a fantastic device and a great cause, and I particularly like being able to show off its removable screen to my unfortunate friends with iPhones and broken screens. Sadly the 1.4.2 update caused it to get stuck in a bootloop, and even reflashing the older versions of android hasn’t fixed it.
Thank you,
Andrew
Is it not a sad thing, that the only way to get a real - not automatic- answer from support in reasonable time is to write in this thread?
I feel a bit uncomfortable towards people that are not member of the forum - it is not obligatory? - or people (like me) who do not feel able to discuss technical detail in a foreign language on phone calls.
However…For several weeks now I have a non working FP 2 and my request number is #111793.
In my request I wrote:
"The problem:
It is no longer possible to charge the battery. I have tried with many different cables and chargers. The red LED lihgt is on and the battery gets loaded to perhaps 5%, then loading stops, battery drains very quickly, phone getting very hot. I cannot start the phone.
I made the update to 1.4.2 and rooted the phone with the instructions of the Fairphone support site. I have done this before without any problems.
It seems, that the problem began after the update. Phone worked, but got often very hot. Charging worked too when needed, but ended quite suddenly ( about three days after the update)"
In the meantime I ordered a new battery, hoping the problem could be solved this way ( and in case of warranty it would have been nice to have two of them), but unfortunately same behavior of the phone with the new battery.
I do not believe its a broken usb-connector. I experienced this with my FP1 and it was different.
With the new battery I was able to start the phone for a short time and I did a reset (Fabrikzustand, dont know the english word). The update 1.4.2 remained and the phone does not charge, but gets very quickly very hot ( with the new battery)
I am pretty sure that I have to send in my FP2 @anon48893843
Or could it be a software issue? If so, anyone could give me advise? Perhaps I can give a little rest to poor support:slight_smile:
thank you
Still no answer for my request #113847
touchscreen still not working.
I’ve tried the #touchscreentest but still not responding !
I received my FP in spetember 2014 … still on warranty ?
Thanks !! @anon48893843
Hi @anon48893843, finally I’ve also managed to find this thread. I’m waiting for almost 2 months now, having a completely broken phone lying around, without even getting an answer to my request. Like so many people before me already wrote, I completely support the idea of Fairphone and I can understand that it’s hard to answer so many requests timely but this kind of waiting time simply isn’t acceptable anymore. I hope this post finally speeds things up - altough I’m not happy about the fact that I have to post here to get things going. I’ve waited patiently for a very long time just to see here that people waiting a lot shorter get their requests answered before mine because they found this thread earlier. That’s not the way to go.
Anyways, my request number is: #105296.
Thanks,
Andi
Hey, if you can give me the ticket number to your request, I will look into a solution!
Hey Simon, I have just sent you a reply. Sorry for the long wait!
Apologies for the long wait, a reply to your message has just been sent.
Hey, thanks for your understanding, it is genuinely appreciated. And apologies for the late reply. I have just sent you a message!
Hi Andrew, thanks for your kind words. And sorry for replying so late - I see however that my colleague Sebastian did so this afternoon. We’ll get you a working device as soon as possible!
Hey, apologies for replying so late to your message, I just replied!
Hey, just replied to your message.
Hey Andi, I completely agree with you this is not acceptable support. We are continuously working on improvements, but we also run into difficulties. In any case, we try hard to talk to as many people as possible. I’ve just sent you a reply to your request.
