Downgrade

If you want to downgrade to the earlier version of Android than the one you currently use, a Factory reset is necessary. This means you need to make a backup.

Please note

We only maintain the most recent version of Fairphone OS. If you downgrade, we can not offer you support with any bug you might encounter.

 

-IMPORTANT-
The Android upgrade cannot install on encrypted devices with secure start-up enabled.
Disable secure start-up first:
  1. Go to the security settings.
  2. Re-enter your current screen lock, but leave secure start-up disabled. You can re-enable it after you are done installing the update.
