Three major erratic instabilities with FP2 w/ Open OS, help!

My SD card “disappears” and is forgotten and not recognised when (a) I reboot my phone OR (b) when I shut it down and turn it back on OR (3) when I plug my phone via USB into my computer for charging. In Storage settings, I can see the button to mount my SD card, but pressing it doesn’t do anything! I have to open the back case (while the phone is on), remove the SD card then put it back in a few times before it is recognised and mounted. I suspect this is a software issue, because when the SD card is physically removed, the mount SD card button in Storage settings is greyed out. However, if the SD card is physically plugged in, the mount SD card button is not greyed out, it just doesn’t do anything.

MicroSD card keeps disappearing from storage

Hi guys I unmounted my MicroSD card from my old phone to put in my new FP2. At first it showed it after putting it in a few times now it’s disappeared from storage in settings. I’m not to pleased about it as this is a brand new phone and I can’t walk into a local shop to get it replaced. The SD card shows on my other phone with no problems. Has anyone else had this problem and is there any fixes for it. Any help welcome. Thanks Bas

In Display settings, I set my phone to Sleep after 5 minutes of inactivity. However, no matter what I set it to, my phone insists on going to sleep after about 10 seconds!! Nothing I do seem to change this…

[SOLVED] Display sleep timeout is limited to 30 seconds

I have the same issue. I was on FPOOS until a few days ago, and this functionality was working fine (I had it set to turn the screen off after 5 minutes). Although I’m not actually sure what version of FPOOS I was on I’m afraid. I reverted to standard FPOS (version 1.5.1) to see if it would fix an unrelated issue. Now setting it to 15s works OK, as does 30s, but anything above 30s just turns off after 30s. Have tried reverting to 30s, leaving it for a while, and then going up to 1minute, but …

Like many other people, my phone also forgets the time and resets it to 1970 whenever I reboot the phone OR shut it down and turn it back on.

Known bug, workaround available here:

FP Open OS: Clock resets after reboot

Clock Reset After reboot workaround Warning: It works on my phone but I cannot guarantee that it will work on yours. I have now tested it under a different timezone while travelling and it works. You do this at your own risk and nobody will pay your ticket if you miss your train or plane in the morning! Thanks to @Roboe for pointing in the right direction!
