Does anyone know of an alternative/equivalent to Framework laptops? Preferably EU-based.

Like #FairPhone, but laptops.

C'était la bonne idée de mettre à jour mon #Fairphone Gen 6 alors que je suis au #Québec. J'ai le bug du redémarrage en boucle maintenant. Je dois couper mon #GPS pour qu'il soit un peu utilisable.

@lauren Enshittification at it's finest, eh?
I would love to see devs from F-Droid, Fairphone and postmarketOS all get together to create a working Linux phone with a well stocked app store.

#FairPhone #FP4 #Help

EDIT: c'est fixé , merci à tou.te.s pour vos repouets et réponses <3

Bonjour,
j'ai besoin d'un petit coup de main: l'écran tactile de mon fairphone fp4 ne répond plus du tout, j'ai tenté un hardreboot, sortir la batterie, etc ... pas mieux.
il marchait encore parfaitement hier soir. Une idée de ce qu'il faut faire s'il vous plait ?

RIP MicroSD usage on my phone. It was fun while it lasted.

My Fairphone has an issue where the SD card is often lost when switching between user accounts and the only way to get it back is to reboot: https://forum.fairphone.com/t/sd-card-and-2-user-accounts/93801?u=nicd

Today I finally just removed the card and moved everything to the phone's internal memory. Oh well. Now I have to figure out what to do with this 256 GB card.

Did anyone here on Fedi get themselves a Fairphone 6? Can anyone tell me about their experience with that phone?

(Please boost for more people to see it ♻️)

Il nuovo #fairphone ha un sistema operativo proprio, staccato dalla dipendenza di #Google. Modulare, con manutenzione diretta e supporto per diversi anni. Mi chiedo quanto sia #marketing o un prodotto che guarda alla reale #privacy e distacco dalle #bigtech. @devol e @lealternative credete sia un prodotto capace di consentire un #degoogliser o è solo strategia di presentarsi leggermente più etico di altri? Davanti a queste cose mi pongo sempre il dubbio.

Alternatives to Big Tech/Big Data:

Windows, Apple, Google -> Linux (Debian, Fedora, Mint, Arch...)

Microsoft Office -> LibreOffice (Only Office would also work, but the founders are Russian, who knows...)

Google Android, Apple iOS -> Pixel with GrapheneOS, Fairphone 6 with /e/OS, Brax 3 with iode OS/Ubuntu Touch

OneDrive, Google Drive, iCloud, Dropbox, etc. -> Nextcloud, MEGA, pCloud, Proton Drive

Outlook, Gmail, etc. -> Proton Mail, Tutanota

Airdrop, Link to Windows -> Localsend, KDE Connect

WhatsApp, Telegram, iMessage -> Signal, Element, Threema

Google Search -> Ecosia, Qwant, Startpage, Duckduckgo

YouTube -> Peertube, or as an anonymous YT client: Freetube and Newpipe

Instagram -> Pixelfed
Facebook, X (Twitter) -> Mastodon, possibly Bluesky

Truly secure and anonymous VPN: Mullvad!

This is just a first overview of the most important alternatives for switching. Feel free to continue if needed!

Ontgoogled, maar niet ontgoocheld. Mijn Fairphone Gen.6 met e/OS ingesteld. Mijn e-mail en contactenlijst van het privacy-vriendelijke Mailfence, mijn kalender en foto's gesynct met mijn NAS in de woonkamer. En alle andere apps werken gewoon zoals het hoort.

Kleine bug: de Google Authenticator kan niet aan de camera om QR codes te scannen, ook al geef je hem de rechten. Dus een andere authenticatie-app gebruiken.

Vanaf nu heb ik alleen nog maar Google nodig voor Youtube.

@_elena This is a great detailed list! And an inspiration when writing about tech.

I'm curious about #Fairphone. Have you considered this Dutch company and products for your next phone?

4/6 Questo il topic che riguarda il problema al sensore https://forum.fairphone.com/t/fingerprint-stopped-working-setting-completely-gone/106991
Questo il topic che riguarda il blocco dello smartphone causato dall'aggiornamento sui modelli con il sensore guasto. https://forum.fairphone.com/t/fp5-not-booting-after-update-to-android-15/121713
Sono uno degli utenti con il sensore guasto, ma che ha sempre rifiutato l'aggiornamento, perché fortunatamente seguivo la questione sul forum degli utenti. Non tutti hanno potuto fare questo e si sono trovati con lo smartphone inutilizzabile. -->

5/6 Ho aspettato moltissimo a rendere pubblica questa mia esperienza pessima, perché mi piace moltissimo l'obiettivo che si pone l'azienda #Fairphone e sono anche molto soddisfatto dal prodotto, a meno del guasto in particolare. Onestamente però, non posso consigliare più un prodotto simile, da un'azienda che si vanta di dare 5 anni di garanzia e di voler ridurre l'e-waste facendo durare gli apparecchi più a lungo possibile, ma non offre un servizio clienti adeguato, per dire un eufemismo. -->

2/6 A peggiorare le cose, è da poco stato pubblicato un aggiornamento ad Android 15 che rende inutilizzabili i modelli con il lettore d'impronte guasto. Il sistema verifica la presenza del dispositivo e nel caso non sia disponibile, si blocca al boot. L'unica soluzione, ma che non garantisce una risoluzione del problema, pare essere di resettare 7 volte il cellulare. Così facendo dovrebbe fare un rollback della versione precedente di Android. Purtroppo non funziona sempre. A peggiorare... -->

3/6 A peggiorare ulteriormente le cose, alcuni dei pochissimi utenti che hanno ricevuto una risposta dal supporto, si sono visti consigliare di aggiornare il sistema, cosa che li ha portati ad avere uno smartphone inutilizzabile. Di male in peggio. Questa guida su #iFixit spiega bene che la procedura per la sostituzione del sensore non è alla poratata di tutti, inoltre #Fairphone non vende il pezzo di ricambio. https://de.ifixit.com/Document/MPkKBmkpH2nOZIEb/Repairability-Snapshot---Fairphone-5.pdf -->

1/6 I talloni d'Achille di Fairphone. C'è un motivo per cui non sto più consigliando di cambiare il proprio vecchio smartphone con un #fairphone il supporto dell'azienda è estremamente carente. Questo si è evidenziato specialmente a distanza di un anno dal lancio del FP5. Moltissimi utenti si sono ritrovati con il lettore d’impronta guasto, hanno aperto un ticket (in garanzia), ma non hanno mai avuto risposta dall'azienda a distanza di mesi. A peggiorare le cose, è da poco stato pubblicato --->

Urgent Android help! SOLVED using @decibyte’s advice: I used Pixel 9a spoofing profile in Aurora Store. Thank you all! 🌻

I must install the Interrail Android app in order to to activate my Interrail ticket, but Aurora Store tells me the app is not available for my device. How can I get it? I could maybe download the APK from Apkpure, but I’d use it as the last resort, since I don’t know how trustworthy it is.

I’m using a Fairphone 5 running CalyxOS 6.8.21, and Aurora Store v4.7.2, downloaded from F-Droid all features are enabled in MicroG. Already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Aurora

Comme quoi, ça sert. J'ai acheté cette protection y'a 15 jours...

Le téléphone n'a rien mais je ne saurais dire si l'écran aurait lâché en l'absence de protection.

Men okei @pilum @fivrelden og alle andre norske brukere av #eOS evt annen ikke-googla Android på #fairphone

Jeg er så nær å kaste Android på dør nå, men vil først sjekke status på enkelte apper/tjenester:

* BankID - yay or nay?
* Vipps - yay or nay?
* DNB Mobilbank - yay or nay?
* Fungerende alternativer til Google Wallet?
* Funker Jottacloud-appen?

Andre hensyn å ta før man plopper over?
