        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

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

                    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.

                      From the Newsletter Sept 27th:

                      Hello again and welcome to the latest newsletter,

                      All things FP5 have moved along a lot recently with quite a few things fixed and working. These include the following

                      fixed vgrid units
                      adb, mtp and usb
                      Modem is up
                      Sound and video decoding works
                      vibrationaidl added to hfd-service
                      flashlight
                      auto brightness
                      mobile data and calls
                      GPS

                      Many of the parts for voLTE have also no been merged but have not yet reached our devel update channel yet.

                      Work is being finished to make the FairPhone 5 available on the installer and as we know many of you are looking forward to this port we will let you know as soon as it is available.

                      We intend to show the FairPhone 5 at the up coming Ubuntu Summit in the Hague so if you are there please come and look us up to find out more.

                      I am excited!

                      Also "and as we know many of you are looking forward to this port we will let you know as soon as it is available" πŸ˜„ . Meaning this forum topic has received a good amount of attention in the UT space πŸ˜„ . 4.3K Views is a lot lol.

                                  @x2u Please try not to overuse the exclamation marks (!), it comes across as shouting.

                                        So the FP5 is now on the installer so please give it a try but remember this is still a work in progress. These things are working or should be though some things are just being pushed now.

                                        fixed vgrid units
                                        adb, mtp and usb
                                        Modem is up
                                        Sound and video decoding works
                                        vibrationaidl added to hfd-service
                                        flashlight
                                        auto brightness
                                        mobile data and calls
                                        fingerprint
                                        GPS

                                        Please note mobile data has broken but is being fixed. Calls and text should work. Work on the recovery is also currently underway by @mariogrip and @TheVancedGamer. More updates as and when we get them.

                                            What Fairphone OS version is needed for installation ?
                                            FP5 sadly has android rollback protection so it is important to know.

                                            +Now FP5 reached installer, we should open a device sub forum for it, with a proper beta test thread.
                                            It's a bit HS here now ^^

                                              @Keneda I am informed all the information is as normal in the installer. I can't check as I don't have a 5.
