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.

@Lakotaubp
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.

@Keneda Part two requested.
