Welcome to the forum, Günter! Do you already know the Austrian Fairphoners?
Would be great to see a Graz community pop up!

Hi Stefan,

Hi, all other fairphone users in Austria!
I’m Wolfgang and a FP2 owner since June 2016… and a proud one, too!
Just received my new ‘Slim Cases’ yesterday - totally happy about them.
The pics are free for use, of course.
Looking forward to hearing about future news via Newsletter.
Fairphone rockz!
Best wishes,
Wolfgang
Hi, I’m Peter from Berlin, got my Fairphone 2 a few days ago and I really like it!
Switched to FP2 from an old & slowly dying Nexus S which I was using for more than 5 years(!)
Immediately installed FP Open to get rid of google, also Xposed, PMP & microG (for those apps that cling to that Big G)…
Cheers!
Welcome to the forum, @uman! Do you know the Berlin Fairphoners? They are also very open-friendly!
@forum people: how would you like the web address berlin.fairphone.community?
Hello,
I’m Laurent from France, Oyonnax. Fairphoner since 1 year.
I come to the forum because I have difficulties since I’ve downloading Fairphone OS.
I’m very happy Fairphone exist and many people love it.
Thanks to make it living.
Best for all of you.
Laurent
Time to introduce myself as well.
I am Dietmar, the P at the end has no meaning, I am just not the first in this forum.
Got my Fairphone 2 yesterday (old black cover), switched directly to Fairphone Open because the usage of the device without Google was one of the reasons for choosing this mobile phone.
I am still in the process of installing the necessary apps, up to now I am quite happy (just the automatic brightness is a bit too dark for my eyes).
I am tracking my experience on my German homepage here: https://permondes.de/ikiwiki/de/Erhalten/Fairphone/ .
My location is München, so I hope I can make it to meet those people there next week.
Have a nice weekend
Dietmar
Welcom to the forum, @DietmarP !
You may move the brightness slider to the right which should also affect automatic brightness (it will be brighter under all conditions then).
Hello to everyone.
This is my time joining a forum, ever! So congrats
Thank you to my friends on the continent for making this phone, I have never had a smart phone because of how Apple and others following what i believed to be an unfair and wasteful business model. I had looked at Fairphone/FP a good few years ago but it was actually just before they had launched fully so all were brand new and I was put off by the high price. Ideally i wanted a used (recycled) FP but the market wasn’t there yet so I went for a (used) Sony Ericsson Elm as it was according to research by O2 and others, one of the most eco friendly mobile phones on the market.
I finally got a second hand Fairphone 1, from the website CEX in the UK, for a xmas present in Dec 2016 and was very excited to start using it. Unfortunately my partner dropped it a couple of weeks later and cracked the screen so I decided to join the forum and ask some questions…
Thank you once again to everyone who made Fairphone possible and everybody involved in the movement

Hello lovely Fairphoners!
My name is Kelly and I am Fairphone’s Social Media Wizard. I’ve been working at Fairphone since October 2016 and although I reference the forum on our social platforms, I have never actually used it until today, so I’m happy to be here!
The Fairphone community is really one of a kind, which makes my job an awesome one because I get to interact with you all whenever you send us a message on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and LinkedIn.
Hope you’re all having a good start of the week!
Best,
Kelly.

Happy to hear that the forum is your magical book of witchcraft.
Hi @anon49920859,
talking about Facebook, please also have a look at diaspora, there are also big fans of Fairphone under the hash-tags: #wearefairphone and #fairphone . If you did not yet come across diaspora, have a look here: (Wikipedia).
