Fairphone 3 equipped with FP3+ Top module and camera (48 MP) - Camera app shows only 12 MP
- /e/ version: 0.13-q-2020120789006-dev-FP3
- Device model(s): FP3(+)
Summary
- Changed the camera module and top module to upgrade to FP3+
- The Camera app shows only 12 MP but it should be 48 MP.
- The Settings menu shows only "FP3" but it should be "FP3+".
The problem
- The /e/ OS 0.13-q-2020120789006-dev-FP3 is installed with FP3.
- Open the case of the FP3 and screwed off.
- Replace the top module and camera module by the FP3+ version.
- Screwed on and close the case.
- Turned the device on.
-
Checked Settings > About phone > Model & Hardware: Still "FP3" and not FP3+
-
Opened the Camera app > More menu (3 dots) > Camera resoution still 4000 x 3000 (12MP) and not 48MP
-
I don't have any workarounds or possible fixes. Please help.

Maybe it's possible that the device recognizes a FP3+ without reinstalling the /e/ OS image.
