Me too, I will make my decision based on if they can give a plausible answer on how they are planning to port Ubuntu, CM, Sailfish, Firefox OS and the like to the FP. I just opened another thread in the FP forum in order to finally get them to answer this question.

maps api broken?
Hi,
on my fairphone I can't use any apps that need the Android Maps api (e.g. DB Navigator), although the fairphonegapps are installed and the files com.google.android.maps.jar/xml are present in the right place. PlayStore states that those apps are not compatible with my device. Installing them manually as .apk-file also fails. Has anyone noticed the same problem with his/her fairphone? Or does someone have an idea how to solve this problem (someone from the developers team maybe)?
Regards

I think the permissions for the jar-file and com.google.android.maps.xml are wrong. in my previous phone the permission for group and world are marked 'r'. The jar file has the same permissions. I changed this, rebooted, removed the update for the play store and now I can install the apps previously marked als not compatible. (Doing this is at own risk)
I made your link clickable
. Good post over there, already two guys supporting it.To be precisely:
Kim's last post: 11th December 2013, 05:30 PM
Joe's last post: 25th October 2013, 06:37 PM
Therefore Kim is quiet for 3 weeks, Joe is quiet for about 9,5 weeks. I wouldn't call this support for a developing community.
Thanks, good information, you two. I will try DB Navigator tonight on the Fairphone. I will also try to check the available sd card memory and run benchmarks and I hope I can make some screenshots.
Thanks, great that you have solved this issue. Could you provide a step-by-step instruction? What did you change and how?
0. (install terminal emulator)
EDIT: as imparted by Nicholas Evans in the Fairphone support forum, BusyBox is not necessary for this as the used programs are provided by Android itself.
1. get superuser rights (Start terminal emulator, type "su" and press enter, grant root priveledges if asked for)
2. remount your system-partition with write access (type "mount -o rw,remount /system" and enter)
3. change the permissions for the following files to rw-r-r:
/etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml
/system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml
/system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar
(to do so, type "chmod 644 $file" and enter, replace $file with the filename and path as written above, do this for all three files)
4. remount system-partition read only (type "mount -o ro,remount /system" and enter)
5. close terminalemulator, delete appdata and updates for Google playstore and reboot. For me that was all.
Please have these instructions rewied by an experienced user/developer before using them, I will/can not guarantee for anything

Shame on your policy of silence!!!
Hey guys!
You're doing a really great work (and I'm talking about the community in this case... the FP-Team doesn't want to be part of this community as it seems)! And you do so, either if we get bad news almost every day.
It's really a shame, how an self-proclaimed project "that puts social values first" can be so ignorant and unsocial to it's new-born community!
HEY FAIRPHONE?!? JOE... KIM... BAS... AND ALL THE OHTERS!?! DO YOU THINK, YOU CAN TREAT US LIKE THIS? DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DESTROYING HERE??? YOU ARE ON THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT WAY TO KICK YOURE WHOLE PROJECT IN THE CURB!!! DO YOU THINK WITH YOUR CURRENT POLICY OF SCILENCE YOU SOLVE THE MISTAKES YOU HAVE MADE? NO!! THIS WILL MADE IT EVEN WORSE, 'CAUSE NOT EVEN THE PATIENTEST DEVELOPER WILL SUPPORT YOUR PROJECT, IF YOURE DOING SO!!!
They are not depending on you - but you will be depending on their free and open work, if you want to make your promise true, to built an fair AND OPEN device!
Shame on you for treating an new-born community like this! Is there no one in your team, who thinks a little over the edge of his plate? Do you think about the consequences you are working on to become true?
Sorry for this harsh words, but you have to think about it! Many people here are thinking about an refund! Is that your goal that you want to reach, after the whole hard work you have pushed into this project? I can't believe it!!!
What I can believe is, that this whole project is really hard work for you, and the last weeks weren't easy. What i currently think about you and your team is, that you are quite overstrained... You haven't ever managed and to cope with such a work-intensive project. You hadn't know a lot of things in the beginning - you didn't exactly know what you really got engaged with! There are existent supply-chains you didn't overlook - and there happens things like building another Chipset into your device - contrarian to the one that was promised to you. Suddenly there are Copy-Rights of a company on a code for the bootloader - contrarian to that you have thought about first. To put it in a nutshell and in the words of Laurel and Hardy "That's another fine mess you've gotten us into!"
But in all of this points there is absolutely NO legitimation for your "Policy of Scilence" and as it has been mentioned above for your tactic of passing the buck to your customers that have trusted in you, saying "Sorry... but its your fault, cause you trusted us!". I think it's really your turn to bring a cool mood to your customers. I've always thought that the "Waag Society" and Fairphone is a creative think tank: So be creative in doing an apologize to your supporters!
Stay to your project - defend it! You have to be clear in this point! You have to stay for the values of the project - the SOCIAL values!
So be social and TALK to us!!!
An angry and disappointed supporter (still!) of your project...

EDIT: As I am not expecting an answer on my post from an official part (Fairphone) 'cause I see that Fairphone seems to set on it's policy of scilence (even in their own "official" forums), is there anyone in the community who is from netherland and who is able to make some pressure and getting some more information in calling the guys?
This are the Phone-Numbers that are from the FP-Page: +31 (0)20 557 98 54 ; +31 (0)20 557 98 55
Maybe there is sb who can do that? I can't speak netherlends and my spoken english is not the best, for express a case like this...

Yesterday and today I was able to play with the Fairphone a bit. First impression was, that it is heavy. In my case I usually have a bigger screened phone with 130 g. I was able to feel the 40 g difference. But it's not a big thing.
What I really disliked, is the issue, that the camera and the speaker grill at the back are kind of popped out. On the backside you have the speaker on the bottom right and the camera on top left. If you want to lay the phone down on a plane surface like a table, it wiggles all the time when you are touching the screen. This is a no go. Looks like no one ever has tested it on a flat surface.
The device feels worthy, not cheap anywhere. Everything was solid, stable... just like I wanted to have it. Everything worked fine, fast, without stutters. Android looks very close to Stock/AOSP, only a few things where change. IMO this is positive. The owner wasn't happy about one thing, he wanted to change the standard home screen. For him screen #2 would be fine, but obviously this is not possible with this launcher or I did not find the right settings for it.
Below a few screenshots, like I promised. This was a German device, so everything is in German. If you cannot translate everything with Google Translate (or others), I can help you, just ask.
Screenshots!!!
Beginning with a journey through some system setting screens. Is this a serial number ("Seriennummer") or is it a bug?
Next up some memory screenshots an a switch on/off timer, I think for the automatic on/off scheduler.
Benchmarks
AnTuTu Benchmark 4.1.4, result: 13179
CF-Bench 1.3, result: 12960 (sorry for the volume slider)
Quadrant Standard Edition 2.1.1, result: 4824
System tool and Google Maps API
CPU-Z and an app for public transportation like DB Navigator. I did not find DB Navigator in the Store, but Öffi - Fahrplanauskunft was found on the Fairphone. As this app is similar to DB Navigator, it's not compatible due to recent mentioned problems with the Google Maps API. There is already a detailed solution for the Google Maps API issues by @MrJekyll.
Danke für die Infos Benkxda! Du hängst dich echt rein in das Projekt! Vielen, vielen Dank dafür! Ich bewundere dein Engagement. Ich hoffe die Fairphoneleute kriegen die Kurve!
Thanks a lot for this post benkxda! And thanks for your work to the whole community!

EDIT: @ Benkxda: Can you tell us sth. about the battery drain (maybe one more screenshot?) and the storage issue? Is it true that just 1 GB is reserved for apps or can you simply switch the storage through system settings?

Thanks, this worked like a charm, I followed these steps exactly, no problems.
The community is helping FP users. Hopefully FP will help the community in its turn, as promised.
Assuming that my phone does not have the same serial nuber as yours, it is a bug since mine shows the same.

Danke, ich hoffe auch, dass Fairphone schnell aufwacht.
Thanks, I also hope that Fairphone is waking up quickly.
I like the idea about a fair product, fair treatment of the mine workers, no child workers, health protection and not to forget the companies who assemble the devices. I don't care which company can create fair products, so if there is another company in 2014 who is more open, more honest, more communicative, working together with the community, doing a good community job, I am on their side. If Fairphone apologizes and promises to make a better job from now on, I am still on their side. Again, it's the idea, which counts for me.
Battery usage screenshots are requested, must wait until I get them from the owner. It seems to be true, you get 1 GB for your apps and the other free storage is for music, videos, pictures, documents or other files. Don't ask me why, this should be answered by Fairphone. Nonsense for me. But I am still not 100% sure, maybe a owner can confirm.
Haha, great one. A pre-easter-egg? Well, Maybe they repair it with the next version, which should be Android 4.4.2.
EDIT: Just added "Known Issues" and "Screenshots" to the OP. If anybody finds other issues, let's discuss and maybe find a solution
EDIT: I compared the benchmark results to my business device and my old Nexus. An overclocked Galaxy Nexus might be able to compete with the Fairphone for a short time, then comes the temperature throttling. Keep in mind, the S3 LTE and the Galaxy Nexus have Cortex A9 cores, the Fairphone has energy efficient Cortex A7 cores. Also, take a look on the GPU power, it's not that bad. It is good enough for most games.
AnTuTu Benchmark 4.1.4 with Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE (GT-I9305), CM 10.2 (Android 4.3) 4x 1,4 GHz
AnTuTu Benchmark 4.1.4 with Google Galaxy Nexus (GT-I9250), CM 11 (Android 4.4) 2x 1,2 GHz

Hi there,
sorry, I'm not very deep into these things below the OS-surface.
I didn't get step 3 correctly, could you please break it down into the 4 different steps it contains?...
If I get it right, I should do as follows:
3.1
type "chmod 644 $file" and enter
3.2
type "chmod 644 /etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml" and enter
3.3
type "chmod 644 /system/etc/permissions/com.google.android.maps.xml" and enter
3.4
type "chmod 644 /system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar" and enter
But... where in that process do I change the rights to rw-r-r for these files?
...sorry, I'm really not the smartest in these matters.
Thanks a lot for helping me getting my FP going!
smartn
Hi smartn.
With chmod you change the rights and the rights are 644. So this number is the important thing. Try it, will work.
EDIT: @asmaron Screenshots about battery consumption arrived...

Oh, thanks for the links. I will add this clarification to the OP. Poor, shame... but why 1 GB? Since Android 4.0 I didn't have any any problems with app installation partitions.
I don't own a Fairphone, so I am not sure. I read something about pressing power and volume down rocker for two seconds to enter recovery/bootloader... anyone can confirm this?
That's good news. Thanks for confirming.
Developers and other members of XDA, I want also mention this support page: Why don’t you use other open source or free software instead of Android?
After reading this, I now have more questions unsolved than just the one in the topic. In fact, the answer confuses me
Make your own thoughts.BTW: Stefan Kraft, I read your note of thanks in your post at the Fairphone forum. Thank you too for your work over there, I read quite many posts from you. I hope you read it or someone tells you about my response

What especially do confuse you?
For the Update Cycles, there was an blogpost here:
http ://ww w.fairphone.com/2013/09/20/fairphone-operating-system/#more-3448
FP answered the question, just follow the quoted link above. Unfortunately, my understanding of the technical details isn't deep enough to understand the consequences of this:
Will the kernel sources be sufficient to port CM, Replicant and the like to the Fairphone or is Mediatek's support definitely needed if we want a costum ROM (or even a non-android-based OS)?

Teardown - Cleaning the backside of the camera lens cover
Opening metal backsided lid.
Removed battery, SIM card and micro SD card.
Close-up of the dusty camera lens cover.
After removing five screws, you can remove the frame which covers the circuit boards.
Removing the frame was a difficult and hard work, as it is clipped very tough and tight. If you have the right tools, don't be afraid, but still be careful.
Picture from inside after cleaning. The square black rubber around the lens cover does not protect well. It probably is just too thin.
Other than that, the whole circuit boards and all electronic components where dusty on the top of the device. Possible reasons: USB port, earphone jack, power button

2316Hi,
I am Kees and I have started working for Fairphone at the first of June. As
Embedded software developer and Open Source addict I spent most of my career
doing what I like most: writing software and playing with hardware.
I joined the Fairphone team because I believe that a Fairphone phone deserves
to be running Open Source software. I will do what I can, certainly in the
future, to make this happen.
Currently? Currently I am working on getting the software for the second batch
ready for production. The new phones are to come with an slightly updated
software stack and will be using the new unified partition scheme (Using fuse
to emulate external storage)
At the same time I am looking at the technical possibilities of upgrading the
current phones to the new partition scheme (this is where I hope to get some
technical input form XDA members).
the xrteamer forum has a nice write-up on the layout changes (I might post the
link once I have permission to post links on the forum). and their current solution
(that involves wiping the data). I am currently basing my work on theirs.
One of the biggest (annoying) changes to user is that the phone will no longer
provide mass storage functionality unless an external SD-card is inserted. This
has impact on how a proper backup and recovery can be done (backup using mass
storage and recovery using MTP?). For the typical Fairphone user I estimate
that this will be to much hassle and we need to find an alternative solution.
I was thinking of perhaps requesting the user to temporarily insert an SD-card
for the update. But for now I am still simply looking at the upgrade (not the
backup/restore yet) and this involves changing the partition layout while
upgrading.
I am not used to using forum's much as I tend to prefer using irc and mailing
list but I will try to keep you posted and use your minds as much a possible.16Fairphone OS Linux kernel source code package
Here's our next step in providing developer resources. Happy to present to XDA: Fairphone OS Linux kernel source code package. Please let us know issues, problems, questions!
We've put together this package with all our downloads of Fairphone OS and stock Android 4.2.2.
We're eager to see what you all can do with it. Thanks for your patience as we got it up. Enjoy!15Hi all,
There are a lot of different questions and issues building up here on XDA for the Fairphone team. Thanks for bearing with us. I've talked with @benkxda so that he can help me collect all relevant issues for the Fairphone tech team and Kwame software developers. Soon, it seems XDA will have Fairphone sub-forums to make this easier for all of us, too.
Also, news for you all: We're still planning the software release of Fairphone OS 1.1 over the air very soon. It was expected around today/tomorrow, but still needs some time.
Best,
Joe
FP Community Manager - Serial number: It seems that the serial number is not a valid serial number, but the standard number 0123456789ABCDEF (solution below)
