It’s usually just the antennas that got very slightly out of their sockets. Look for a how to get it openned and press the antenna wires (they should be the only real round, white plastic coated, wires you’ll see) back into their sockets. And you’ll be good to go for a few more years.
Here is the product page of the chip in Fairphone’s 5th phone:
https://www.qualcomm.com/products/internet-of-things/industrial/building-enterprise/qcm6490#Overview
Fairphone uses Qualcomm snapdragon chips but they don’t use chips made for mobile phones, it’s chips for industrial use they buy, so the secure element might be missing. The reason is: they are supported for way longer which allows fairphone such long update periods. The shortlist of other phonemakers who can do the same are the ones who design their own chips: Google, Samsung, Apple.
It’s an e/ OS spin-off. Quite a trustable project.
Google deprecated both AOSP phone app and AOSP messenger app a few months ago. Normally, there should be a surge in FOSS replacements for both apps as they are needed by ROM makers to have a good experience (also: i understand it’s not necessarily the most exciting kind of apps to dev yet they are probably among the most risky privacy-wise to make)

I found soudcore to be underwhelming as far as ANC is concerned, i had Phillips before them… I miss their ANC capability dearly!
The other apps are not free to dev and maintain either. You got to give what you can.
Yeah, they probably changed things around since the miband 3 then the 5 I had, it used to eat the battery like there was no tomorrow when left in AOD, it wouldn’t last more than 4/5 days… But then again if you left the AOD on, the OLED screen was so bad (i mean after a few years the clearcoat was so scratched up and the pannel was not enough bright) you couldn’t read the time when the sun was on it. I guess all brands evolve to give better quality… Software wise, pretty happy about gadgetbridge, that was a life saver, xiaomi’s software was deplorable, zepp is even worse, it calls home all day long.
I don’t even need to lift to see the time, i just glance at it, the led pannel is on permanently like a casio watch, it glows when I lift, and the oled within it wakes up for notifications, incoming texts and calls, when I’m using maps, to control media players etc…
Funny, i just went the reverse way, from mi-band to wearOS. I’ve got one of those two screen devices (LCD and OLED) and most of the day, it uses the LCD. Three days is my battery life. Which is ok by my standards. I mainly changed over for the screen size of the notifications and the ability to see the time instantly. Got it second hand, it was much cheaper than new and the state was really good.
So many things will have to be done to rehumanise Russians once the putin regime has gone. They have been starved of decent politicians for the past 200 years and their society has gone so much to shit they don’t see it anymore… Germans after ww2 were easy to to reform as they still knew what decency was as they had the Weimar Republic right before things went south. Russians went from tsardom to communist to this nothingness that is Putin’s regime, they have lost all humanity and nothing appears to be able to pull them out of their moral corruption.
Cannot see modules for sale in the shop which is rather strange for a modular phone. There is no details of their sourcing concerning rare earth parts . They push the recycling part real high when their documentation shows 450 Kg/year of effective recycling, where does the rest of their current devices come from? Finally They push consumerism quite far in their shop with their bundle buy our current phone and you get a free upgrade towards the next one we launch.
And what about the bikes they also make and sell? Making one type of good product in such a niche market should be focusing enough not to be distracted in making other household products with vastly different supply chains, especially when you aren’t a multi-billion conglomerate.
