fp6-img

Flashable postmarketOS images for the Fairphone 6/6+, built nightly from the Catcrafts milos-linux combined-stable kernel branch.

Maintained by Jorijn van der Graaf (TheMightyCat) at Catcrafts.

What works

Everything on the combined-stable branch: display, touch, wifi, cellular data, NFC (reader), speaker audio, microphone, IMU, magnetometer, barometer, ambient light/proximity, fingerprint unlock through fingerprintd, plus VoLTE calls (both directions) through imsd.

Flashing

Download fp6-img-{DE}.tar.xz with your preferred DE from the latest release ({DE} is plasma for Plasma Mobile, calls through Plasma Dialer, or phosh for Phosh, calls through GNOME Calls) and unlock the bootloader (Fairphone's official process).

Install: with the phone in fastboot mode,

tar xf fp6-img-{DE}.tar.xz
cd fp6-img-{DE}
./install.sh

install.sh erases dtbo, flashes the rootfs, RAM-boots the kernel, writes the boot partition from inside Linux where the bootloader's NV-wipe cannot see it, then reads the modem NV back and reports the result. The bootloader never writes boot.

Default login: user / 147147 (same as official postmarketOS images). Never re-lock the bootloader with a custom image installed.
