Best way to support Porting / Checking Status for the Fairphone 5

So, will the image magically show up in the installer application when ready, or will we need to update the installer app?
I keep checking the installer app every day with my fingers crossed.

I think/hope that when FP5 Ubuntu Touch is ready for users, there will be an announcement. -
I think/hope too, that when FP5 Ubuntu Touch is ready for users, there will be an announcement.
My phones:
-
Xiami Redmi 7 & Softmaker Office & SCRPI & NextCloudPi for office applications
-
Pinephone PMOS & PP keyboard only for evaluation purposes
-
Raspberry Pi zero 2 w & Raspberry Pi OS & LibreOffice for evaluation & future developments (I plan to switch to DietPi)
-
I currently hate all of my devices.
-
FP5 Ubuntu Touch planned as a privacy phone & Raspberry Pi screen.

Yeah I'm sure there will be an announcement and/or will be talked about in a Q&A. Also, I don't think the installer has to be updated since the list and device config are dynamically retrieved from a server.

@kugiigi
Ah, perfect. This is what I wanted to know. I suppose I'll just continue to impatiently wait and open the installer every day to check lol -
@Inali Or just wait for any news or announcement

@x2u please consider that discussions on postmarketOS are off-topic in this Thread.

@x2u There might be something within the month. Stay tuned.

thanks mr.
Do you mean that Ubuntu Touch will be released this month?
Suposedly the person working on it had some health situation come up so it's been a lesser priority versus getting better.
I hope they are better. I don't know much about it to give further detail, nor is it my business.
Certainly explains the lack of recent news regarding the build.
