[HowTo] Update baseband & other firmware
-
@fla yes they are. But as previously said, I don't know how those firware images are linked with the Android kernel. You can flash them with the kernel you currently have, but maybe they won't work as reliably as with the kernel in the zip folder... that is what I tend to think. I hope that I'm wrong and it's just my FP2's top module that shows its age, but maybe you're safer with the full image and a clean reinstall of UT.
That implies a backup of your data - a backup of
/home/phabletis sufficient for me. -
@luna great ! i'll do that as soon as I can. Thanks for the update

@emphrath you're welcome

If someone of you would write me a text to replace my initial post with the new instructions feel free ^^

Hi, I have moveds that article to the FP2 subforum now, pinned it and updated the link: Now it points to 2 optins, either use the 7.1 or the 9.0 firmware, I maybe recommend to start with 7.1 - Can anyone tell me if the downloads maybe contain the same images, so we can point only to one?
As of today there will be no more firmware releases for the FP2, so its safe to assume that will be the last update of this article

Where can i find the current firmware? Cos i already did an update in the past..

Can I flash it anyway? -
@s3r0 No idea
better not flash anything thats not 100% safe -
@s3r0 i meant, the current firmware of my phone

@tommiedom
Good questionI have this power-on bug too, but flashing seems to be a bit risky..
Has anyone flashed the latest (19.11.2) firmware release? -
@s3r0 yes. By flashing the entire fairphone OS, so you don't have to worry about which part of the firmware goes where.
