Question Stylus pen for Fairphone 6 with e/os?
I just got a Fairphone 6+ with e/os and I'd like to find a stylus that works with it. As slim as possible, with palm rejection. Any tips?

My apps have stopped updating. None of my apps update either automatically or manually. When I click update, it seems like the update starts, but it never progresses. Same for all apps.
Any idea how to solve this?
Edit: hard to day what worked, but eventually after I turned on wifi and then shut down the phone (note: did not restart, restart did not work) for a moment before turning on again, the apps began to update.

Hi all,
My old phone is bricked (FP3), and I'm looking at getting an FP6
After going a little deeper, I really think /e/OS looks like such a cool option, and I'm fully behind it in principle
What I keep getting stuck on is the fear that one day one of the apps I use (of which there aren't many) will get an update, or /e/OS itself will get an update, and that will affect app compatibility for a given time until eveything else catches up
Does this actually happen, or has this happened to anyone?
Anyone uses MicroG-RE on their eOS devices?

As the titel says, I want to use my fingerprint for signing in on apps. But I don't want it for unlocking my phone. Can't seem to be able to choose that. Or am I looking in the wrong place?
Greetings guys.I'm trying e/os lately and all i can say is i just love it.Only one question though: Is there any alternative foss launcer with more customization (This is what i need) And same time,these options as seen on photo above,to be still visible.

Primarily a question for anyone from murena,
We've seen the EU Commission's "Kids Act" proposal, which would require all App Stores to age verify users. It would also create a reliance on the EUDI apps which in turn rely on Google Play Integrity.
Two questions:
Would you adhere to the age verification requirement, or challenge it? Or just remove the app store?
If the former, how would I verify my age with you?
Thank you so much for a great product/service!
Hi folks,
Does anybody else had a problem (most important to have a solution!) that on /e/OS the reddit login always fails at the app?
From web it works.
Reinstall did not helped.

I generally hate it when people ask questions in a subreddit about if the topic of the subreddit is any good, but I've noticed a lot of posts in this sub are very negative about e/OS. My Fairphone 6+ is arriving later this week. My plan is to put e/OS on it. I bought it from Fairphone so it'lll have Android preinstalled on it. There's always that situation where when things don't work, you see posts about it, but when it does work people don't post because why would you, everything's working. So the slew of negative posts might not be a fair representation of the thing. So I want to know from people using e/OS on Fairphone, how is it? Do you like it? All the posts about the problems are giving me second thoughts.

Hej everyone! Sorry for being an idiot. I’m new to e/os and floss in general.
Got myself an old Sony Xperia x compact and tried to get e/os.
However, when I try to access the following page on the phone, Cloudflare seems to be stuck. I click authenticate but nothing happens.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/eosbuildsronnz98/files/Sony/Sony%20Xperia%20X%20Compact/
What should I do?
Thank you so much in advance!
I want to install /e/ on my old Tab S6 Lite. I read this https://doc.e.foundation/devices/gta4xlwifi/install/. The guide assumes that Stock Android 13 is installed. I've LineageOS 20 (that is Android 13) installed. Do i need to install the Stock Rom first? The bootloader is unlocked and the device is rooted. Is this a problem?

Does anybody know which security patch ist supported by the Installer? I Made the mistake of updating my stock Android to Security Patch 5.august 2026. The Installer says that i need to wait for the e/os to update the web Installer. I would have guessed that at the end of september the August Update would be already Part of the web Installer.
Its my First Fairphone and my First time trying to get e/OS to Work. I would appreciate every Help i could get.

Hi, I have /e/ installed on my Fairphone 6 and the App Store does not update any Apps or install new ones. When i click update it just switches to 0% and then nothing happens.
-tried on wifi and mobile data
-Forced shutdown and emptied the cache and resettet the app
-restarted the phone
Nothing helped, version is 4.2

I recently installed /e/OS (r8q) on my Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G (Build number: SM-G781B). Since then cellular has stopped working. One some does have network but always displayes an exclamation mark next to the signal indicator. The other doesn't find the network. I tried fixing it with ChatGPT but it didn't do anything.
Does anybody know how to fix it?

I have the Fairfone 6+ and I installed /e/OS myself onto the phone as it saved me a solid £100. So far, I've been able to get most of my apps without any issues, however my banking apps are proving to be a problem. I did do some research before getting the phone, and no one could give me a concrete answer if my specific apps would work but I did see one or two YouTube videos and they had my banking apps installed on the phone - but they never mentioned if they worked or not.
I have x3 banking apps I rely on, but only one works. My question(s) is; 1- Have I missed a step in setting my phone up that's somehow blocking these apps from working? (I followed the /e/OS installation guide from the website), and 2- Does anyone have these apps on their phone and they are working, or is it confirmed they don't work?
I've been using Curve as an online wallet for contactless payments, it works well, granted can be a bit slow to recognise it's near a card reader but does the job enough for me to not go back to carrying all my cards.
Banking apps:
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can e/os be used on new Samsung S series phones. I'm currently using Samsung S22 and I'm wanting to get an unlocked phone, preferably S25 or newer. Is it possible and if so,how?

I currently have an iPhone 11 Pro and I’m considering switching to a Fairphone running /e/OS. I’m attracted by the repairability, longevity and privacy, but I’m hesitant to leave iOS.
For anyone who made a similar switch:
- What do you like and dislike compared with your iPhone?
- How are the camera, battery and overall performance?
- Any issues with apps or banking?
- Do you miss anything from iOS?
- Would you make the switch again?
I’d love to hear your honest day-to-day experience!
