The v2.2 update should now be available to ALL users of the #Fairphone2, the #Fairphone3, the #Fairphone4 and the #Fairphone5 on /e/OS, both dev and stable. Curious how the Fairphone camera app works on the FP4. /u
@gael @e_mydata that's really cool. Are spare parts for #fairphone2 available? And how many updates are planned for #fairphone5 generally?
Je cherche un #Fairphone2 éventuellement pour pièces avec au moins l'écran en bon état. Si vous avez ça qui traîne dans un tiroir, n'hésitez pas !

@Fairphone schreibt in der gestrigen Newsletter-Ausgabe: »Nach sieben Jahren geht unser geliebtes #Fairphone2 in den Ruhestand. Angesichts dieses Ereignisses haben wir gerade das letzte Software-Update für das Fairphone 2 veröffentlicht. Ein einzigartiger Meilenstein für ein #Android-#Smartphone: Mehr als 7 Jahre Software-Support! (...) Wir haben in unserem Webshop auch noch einen begrenzten Vorrat an Ersatzteilen verfügbar.«
Das sind gute Aussichten für mich als Besitzer eines #Fairphone4.
To avoid people getting caught by surprise, #Fairphone has a new blog entry about the end of software support for the #Fairphone2 (released in 2015 with Android 5, now on Android 10):
"After an unprecedented seven years of supporting our beloved Fairphone 2, we will finally stop software support for the Fairphone 2. After March 2023, we will no longer deliver software updates for the Fairphone 2"

I guess I will ask for a bit of help here.
So, broken screen, but phone is working just fine, I can even access files by connecting to a computer. It's an old one with other problems, so I guess it’s done for.
Before switching, I would like to do a full backup with adb (on Linux Debian) as I have done in the past, sadly not that recently though so a new one would be nice, especially considering I might even have deleted the old one cleaning up my home computer(?).
Because of no screen though; I can’t enter debug mode and am stuck there.
What workaround could I use to enable debug, or do a full backup without it (yeah, not that many hope one that last one)?
I have seen that there are some software that can be used as display, but those I have seen so far seem absolutely not trivial to use, and while I could follow a decent how-to, I really really don't have time nor the mental energy for heavy tinkering and jumping around various tools’ manual atm.
I would gladly hear of suggestions.
J’envisage de passer mon #fairphone2 qui a plus de 5 ans de #lineageos + microg vers /e/. Est-ce que c’est une bonne idée, et est-ce que c’est compliqué ?
