@kugiigi said: Fairphone 5 is indeed snappy. It also has the most usable camera I'm curious if you experience the same focus issue for short distance photos (<30cm) as I do. It's always blurry, and switching to camera and back to photo again corrects it. It does not seem a hardware problem since the photo app in Waydroid focuses immediately.

@oldbutndy Glad its helpful to someone. To quote Murina directly: "Regarding the re-flash service, it is currently only available in the EU. In the US, it is only offered for Fairphone 6 devices purchased from Murena. I understand that this device is a Fairphone 5 model, and Murena has never sold the Fairphone 5 in the US. If the device can be shipped to the original purchaser, or if you are located in the EU, I may be able to arrange the re-flash service for a fee of €99. All shipping costs would need to be covered by the customer. The 99 Euro fee will still apply even if the reflash does not restores the device's state to its original one." So essentially, if you own a Fairphone 5 in the US, or didnt buy it directly from them, they are not helping you. In addition if they do help you, they are charging more than Fairphone themselves for the exact same service.

@Moem The banks in the UK are really pushing you to use their app. For example if you log in on a browser, it will push you to authenticate with your app on your phone or tablet. The banks have close the vast majority of counters and now run a service (no cash withdrawals) where a van goes from community to community on set days for all banks to cater for those who don't online bank. Likewise if you do need a big cash withdrawal (i.e over 1000 euros) then they question you like you are a naughty child. (Think of Greta Thunberg saying "how dare you withdraw your own money, how dare you!). Then to work you now have to have an authenticator app and I have to have the M$ authenticator, no choice. If I don't have it I cannot get into works systems! The UK is really going to rack and ruin......

@domubpkm Thanks for the info! calls are my biggest issue, they just keep calling all day every day.

@Futura Just want to confirm this same thing happened to me. I had been daily driving calyxos, but wanted to give the new 24.04 a try. Initial progression went like this: calyxos > fairphone 15 > ubuntu 24.04 - neither wifi nor T-Mobile data worked I messed around with a couple other things including postmarket, no avail. Tried your trick: postmarket > fairphone 13 > changed setting above > ubuntu 24.04 - wifi and LTE both work Strange, and I'm not sure I follow why that works, but can confirm it does. Thanks!

@wally The lack of MMS was a big sticking point for me, good to know it might just take some messing around to get it working. Hopefully the new APN settings will resolve my sms/mms issues. @arubislander Good to know! Once I get the SMS/MMS issues ironed out I will do some playing around and see what I can come up with. If I could somehow get bitwarden and firefox I would be set. The default browser is pretty rough with the scaling bug on the FP5.

@Futura A lot of us use Cinny, a matrix client. And then matrix bridges to signal and some other services. We also heavily rely on Telegram through the app Teleports for all of the UT groups.
