Is the software buggy? I did not like the Fairphone 5 mainly because of how buggy the Google Android version was… I had random reboots and freezes, framerate issues, UI elements that glitched or didn’t fit the screen properly. Hope they were able to fix that by now.
I too have the Gen 6, but i choose the e/OS version. Great phone so far.
That must be Xiaomi’s fault… Android does not do such thing. Check the running processes in Developer Settings to see what’s running that could cause this. After located, disable/uninstall them, with ADB if needed.
Live wallpapers are often a form of ads. Like Motorola have Live Lockscreen, made and owned by Taboola… This is why you should skip bloated Android devices, unless you use a custom rom or don’t mind the extreme debloating.

I think it didn’t work out well for Samsung… so i guess, not a big market? Phones are already super thin… why not make a (slightly) thicker one and put a massive battery, better cooling system, headphone jack and whatnot in it?
Yeah that’s what i thought. Can’t wait to try out the FP6 with Murena
Maybe i did not read everything well enough, but did GrapheneOS provide anything other than just ‘they do this’ and ‘they are not secure’? Are there more sources to prove GrapheneOS is not talking nonsense? Not that i’m defending e/os or anything, i’m just really curious to read some proper examples of their (for what i’m now calling) claims.
I’ve read only but good things about e/os… until this. Saying this while my Fairphone 6 with Murena will be delivered in about 12 hours…
For now… Google is developing AOSP more and more behind closed doors, which is more troubling for other Android based OS’s. So even if e/OS is not (much) effected by this ‘sideloading’ thing, other choices Google makes will destroy something at some point.
If Google is going to build this “sideload protection” in the core of Android, this is going to be very bad, even for e/OS.
Fuck Google.
