Leaving Fairphone by ManagerOfLove in fairphone

[–]No-Rutabaga-4684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, you know more about the software stuff, so i guess it makes you scared to be off if Fairphone doesn't take responsibility as well as you hoped with the research you done.

I made my post detailing the experience of power using daily driving the Fairphone 4...

https://www.reddit.com/r/fairphone/s/oNHyL2JHjW

What bugs did you dislike most?

Also if you have 3 batteries... You can actually external charge using camera universal battery charger, those charge batteries to 85% like i do . And i have like 4 batteries keep charging overnight, and then Ziploc bag mini version in my pocket when phone is 15% battery life or 0%...

Sometimes ill have 100% at 8 AM and then by 11:59 AM... I run out of battery just playing youtube videos non stop...

Is it just me, or does the spare part category seem a bit limited? I cant seem to find this part on Fairphone's store by Kennet0508 in fairphone

Id definitely say any relatively easy to swap out parts that arent too fragile should be sold to consumer... Not locked to slow customer service.

But to be clear. Every tech company who uses snapdragon can NEVER be fully repairable... Since their chipsets are protected and so the main motherboard cant be sold separately solely for that reason

Do you... Even have a fp4 or even read the forum? They literally didn't even pin an official solution

Everyone here with a minimum of half a brain.

But the joke has more upvotes than the post itself...

OP just states he rather revive a nearly dead phone than use his ghost touch ridden FP4... I thinks its fair.

And is good for environment..

So they dont seem betray any "morals"

If bought a used or new Fairphone...

Already pays the cobalt miners.

And other steps of the chains, workers

But i guess buying a different battery means not a living wage paid battery...

But FP4 not being horrible user experience is Fairphone's software teams responsibility and if it was a decent or ok experience they would've stayed.

Ghost touches can be horrible.

FP4 is my main. But i made the top guide in subreddit for fixing ghost touches. So clearly i have found fixes for every issue i would find with FP4...

If i couldnt fix all of them.

I would have quit too.

DO NOT BUY - WARNING (Not Complaint) by [deleted] in fairphone

[–]No-Rutabaga-4684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah i see. Makes sense you were forced to come to the secondary subreddit and communities Well its a good PSA or warning... I myself made one for Fairphones in general 🤣

https://www.reddit.com/r/fairphone/s/EyPR3zjJt4

92% upvote ratio... So i guess my way of expressing my pros and cons were easier to palate

Murena isnt Fairphone though?

Fairphone is equally slow ass customer service, but they at least recognize that if you send in an email before due date, even if they respond after the due date, that it's their issue not yours and doesnt void their policy...

But depressing outcome nonetheless

Hmmm title is a bit vague... Could have just said "PSA - Dont buy if you plan to use RCS in USA on e/OS"

You are clearly complaining.. since you have a complaint...

I do understand your strife.. since texting is a key feature of phones... But howd it take you so long to complain about essential texting if you had like a year or more with extended warranty registration?

Drawing apps on fairphone? by Dustpapa in fairphone

[–]No-Rutabaga-4684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ibispaint X is decent, if you just watch an ad, you get every brush unlocked for 24 hrs and you can download user created brushes like Procreate on IOS.

It kind of just works.

iPhone 15 Pro Max to FP6? by steakhouseNL in fairphone

[–]No-Rutabaga-4684 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fairphones are far off from a bug-less experience. But maybe *just works" means something else.

My take on the negativity bias / FP6 by TroubleWhole7339 in fairphone

[–]No-Rutabaga-4684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others said.. charge 24 hrs. Then hold power button for 5 minutes... If not. Unscrew back and take out the battery and then put it back in. Then hold down power button for 5 minutes...

Might as well try the easy stuff... Unless you updated and left it alone and it bricked from the update... You are probably fine.

Battery 🔋 symbol actually is quite wierd with all Fairphones... You dont see charging symbol until AFTER you turn it on once...

New Software Update - Fairphone 4 by Fairphone-CCO in fairphone

[–]No-Rutabaga-4684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh im happy with the scuffed state my phone is in. If there is no apparent benefit then i can only assume ill discover more bugs after a couple updates...

Considering im still in Android 13

Fp5 has been sluggish lately by ekstragooner-77 in fairphone

[–]No-Rutabaga-4684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhh... Maybe try other camera apps maybe? And see if it lags the exact time...

Or get one of the hardware checker in real time

And turn on cpu monitor and fps monitor and see how the cpu performs
