For those that maybe aren’t aware of the Fairphone 4, it is a mid-range smartphone offered by Amsterdam-based company Fairphone that stands out from the typical Android crowd due to its easy-to-repair design. It was released in 2021 with Android 11 pre-installed. Although the company promised two major Android updates, the Fairphone 4 has yet to get a taste of Android 12 through the official channel. Be that as it may, the phone has now received an unofficial build of LineageOS 20 with microG and F-Droid, thanks to XDA JMember tfbb, with significant contributions from the WeAreFairphone community.
Keep in mind that this isn't the first Android 13 custom ROM for the Fairphone 4. The CalyxOS project, for example, added the fourth generation Fairphone in their build roster a few months ago. Nonetheless, a pre-compiled LineageOS release with integrated microG support is huge for the privacy-minded Fairphone users, who don't want to sacrifice customizability for the sake of security.
