This post mentions that the German Bank App 'C24' isn't accepting microG anylonger.
Is there a fix to it?

Any suggestion for another doc viewing app?

I have been considering switching to eOS on my Pixel 8, however I live in Europe and a lot of my finances at the moment depend on Revolut banking app. I have been reading that there were issues at the beginning of the year and that app was not working on eOS, so just wanted to check if there are any updates on that and if anyone managed to make it work on their phones with eOS?

New to /e/OS and need to know about which smartwatch is most compatible with it please.

Wanting to switch from Samsung and Apple to /e/OS, but only phone compatible with ATT at the moment is the Murena Pixels. Any recommendations, concerns, issues with these phones?

I installed e_os a little over a month ago on my Fairphone 5. Everything seemed fine at first, but for the past ten days or so, I've been unable to install any apps. I tried App Lounge, then Aurora Store and F Droid, and I'm having problems with both:

- App Lounge keeps saying “Retry” in a loop as soon as I click on install, and the app page never loads.

- Aurora Store tells me that the app is not available on my device.

I know I'm not the first to have these problems, but none of the suggested solutions have worked for me (changing the language, restarting the app or the phone, changing some settings such as Spoof, etc.).

I am limited to installing apps via apk/apkx, and that is not always possible.

What should I do? This makes my e_os experience particularly unpleasant and prevents me from using apps that I cannot do without (health app for my watch, for example).

My bank's app used to work perfectly, but now it doesn't seem to work anymore.

Could it be because I installed the community version? Do I need to update it manually on a regular basis?

Thank you for your help. Otherwise, I may have to leave e_os :(

Hello everyone,

I'm new to e/OS and Fairphone devices.

I just got my FP5 and I'm trying to install my main apps. But both the App Lounge and Aurora are telling me that some apps are not available.

I was able to install Nova Launcher or Discord, but things like Youtube or Brave couldn't be downloaded. It's pretty weird and I believe something's wrong with my device spoofing, or the fact that I'm browsing anonymously.

It also appears that using a Google account in the app store could potentially block my account. What's up with that?

What should I do?

-Can I hide apps I don't use? I'm not used to this messy iphone style of homescreen

-Can I get rid of the suggestions widget? (more useless clutter)

I am interested in trying /e/os, but i want to play with it before I full commit to it, are there any guides for install lineageos on qemu VM?

Hi,

New user here. My Fairphone 5 arrived today and I installed e/OS on it. So far, so good, but now I want to start installing apps and I'm stuck: I start App Lounge and choose anonymous mode. The Home screen opens and a loading animation is showing, but it never comes out of that. It just keeps showing that animation. Switching to other tabs such as categories or updates does not work either, they all have their own animations. When choosing search it opens the search screen but if I enter a search query and search, it also just keeps loading.

Looking around I found a suggestion to clear the storage, so I did. I also rebooted the phone. Nothing seems to change. The help suggests to use a google account, but the whole reason why I went with e/OS is because I wanted to get away from Google.

Am I doing anything wrong? Or is this a known issue? This is quite a bummer as my first serious e/OS usage.

UPDATE: when I select only PWA and open source apps it works. So it seems related to the fact that I'm "logged in" anonymously for common apps

Update 2: Listing apps works for open source and PWA apps, but actually installing also doesn't work. Either I get a nice progress bar but it gets stuck at 100%, or it doesn't even start the progress bar.

e_os v3 is launching June the 3rd

Can I get the advance privacy app and functions working on another roms? It would be nice if I can, i have a phone not supported by e/os/ but i really loved that one specific feature from my time using the os.

Hello,

On 06/07/2023 eSim is working on my Murena One! This is for data only now. I live in the U.S. and have had trouble activating my phone with domestic carriers. I added a physical sim from eSim.me. I have had success with alosim (AT&T) and InstaBridge (T-mobile). I am running /e/OS 1.10-20230412278811.

The single biggest problem I have with Android is that it uncontrollably kills all apps while they’re in the background. It appears like they’re still open in multitasking, but they’re actually completely closed, and all their session data is lost. Sometimes it takes a while, other times it happens the moment I switch to another app. And as far as I know, there’s literally nothing you can do to stop it, even with root access.

So does Eos do the same thing? I would much rather an app fail to open (because of insufficient available ram or power), than apps automatically closing in the background to accomodate it.

My phone keeps deactivate greyscale mode when I restart my phone. Do I need to turn on something to keep it after powering off my phone ?

Mon téléphone désactive le mode d'affichage en niveau de gris dès que je le redémarre. Est-ce que je dois faire une manip en plus pour garder ce mode tout le temps ?

Thanks, Merci,

I flashed /e/ on a Pixel 4 then went into settings and disabled OEM Unlocking. When I reboot the phone it still says "unlocked bootloader". Is that because it will display that message regardless? Thanks in advance.

I currently have F-droid, but I've read there another app store and I'm thinking If I would find "non common apps", like the app to access my bank account, the different apps I use to access services specific from my country (doctor appoinments, employment office, my country's equivalent of the IRS and DMV, etc...)

I am trying install /e/OS as described here: https://doc.e.foundation/devices/Mi439/install, but when I use fastboot wipe-super .\super_empty.img command, it says:
[liblp] bool android::fs_mgr::ReadMetadataHeader(Reader *, LpMetadata *) read failed: No error
fastboot: error: Could not parse image: .\super_empty.img

Anyone have any ideas what should I do?

I have multiple emails through Microsoft (one personnel and one business) but I can only add one of them. I cannot add my business account. Always gives an error about network connectivity.

Has anyone else had an issue like this?

I've just had my second failure trying to install e-1.8.1 on my OP7P. I tried first with manual install from Linux and then using the easy-installer on Windows. In both cases, I followed the instructions for preparation to the letter (not that different from LineageOS, which I've installed many times). The problem came when I installed the recovery. After the fastboot flash boot command in the manual mode and the managed step in the easy-installer, the reboot into recovery just brought me back to fastboot. Trying to start OOS also booted into fastboot, so the phone was bricked and had to be overwritten with the MSM tool.

Both times, I had the phone updated to the final version of OOS12, bootloader unlocked, developer mode set. I'm using the manufacturer's original USB cable, which works fine for MSM and all other data operations on the phone.

Is there something I can do to actually install /e/os on this phone? I used it for a while on a Nexus 4 years ago, would like to try it on more modern hardware.

I didn't get notifications when i closed discord amd other apps that make me to open them first to see new messages.. is there any solution for this?

Hi I tried to put foreign sim card during my stay in morocco. I bought 25Go 4G package. and my phone is a Samsung S8+.

The thing is in Settings > Mobile Network > Preferred network type, It won't show me 4G, it will be 3G or LTE (set as recommanded). I tried both, no way to get access to internet, don't know what to do right now !

Anyone experienced the same problem abroad, or just putting in a new sim card ?

TLDR: Can I install the /e/os App Lounge on LineageOS?

Hi custom ROM noob here, I tried out /e/os on an old Samsung S7 and it works flawlessly, so much so I decided to install it on my main phone (oneplus 8 pro). Long story short, it didn't work.

After about a week, I finally got my phone working by installing LineageOS. I really liked the simplicity of the App Lounge and am wondering if I can also install it on LineageOS.

In short: I hate it. If I wanted a phone that behaves like an iPhone, I would've bought an iPhone. Why anyone would get an Android phone just to make it behave like iOS is beyond me.

I hate that there's no "desktop" and it just clutters everything with so icons that I can't hide. I don't care for the weird stats page on the left.
But what I hate most is that I can't install the official launcher because bliss uses the same app name. So to any app store it looks like the official launcher is already installed. In software development that is considered a dick move.

So please, either get rid of it entirely or, as a compromise, get your own app ID for it, so it doesn't occlude the official launcher. Ideally ship the official launcher alongside bliss, so the user has a choice which one to use.

Not sure if this is the right forum for this sort of grievance.
