iodéOS 7.3 official + 7.4 beta

The official 7.3 is here, if you can’t get it automatically try a local update from here, https://gitlab.iode.tech/ota/release/-/raw/master/brax3/iode-7.3-20260307-brax3-ota.zip

!!! IMPORTANT !!!

Starting with the next update, these files will be stored on Brax Technologies’ servers, which should improve download speeds. To facilitate this transition, several internal changes are required. As a result, you must install version 7.2, followed by version 7.3, before you can install a later version. **Manually installing version 7.3 on a system running a version earlier than 7.2, or installing a version later than 7.3 on a system running a version earlier than 7.3, may result in total data loss.

Great update! It finally fixed USB-C audio. My usb-C earphone works perfect for both phone call and media playback. USB-C audio worked only for phone call on previous versions.

Since iodeOS update to 7.3 I can no longer open instagram links sent to me. I don’t use Instagram but people do send me links and it’s always worked until I upgraded to 7.3. I now get a message that the page isn’t available, link may be broken or page has been removed. The page is there because other phones can find it. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Explain the situation, do you use the app or you are logging in through a browser?

How those links are sent to you and how do you try to open them?

Check that when you try open the link the address in the address bar is the same and it doesn’t lose any information. The content that doesn’t require logging in should be accessible anonymously through imginn.com

I am being sent a URL (https://www.instagram.com/…) to an instagram post, which, when I tap it, opens in the browser. I typically use Brave, but I also tried the iode browser with the same results. And I copied the link and pasted into the browser with same results.

Check that the address remains what you tapped or pasted after you get the error.

Try also to remove any extra tracking parameters and keep only the “/p/…” part.

Also check whether the address has been broken in many parts due to some misplaced space or some other symbol.

When I copy the address, it appears to copy all of it, but when I paste it into the browser it is truncated. So I typed it into the browser on my computer and get the same thing. It’s specific to this link because I went back to an older instagram link and it opened. So I think it’s an instagram issue. Please disregard.

I encounter the same issue form time to time, when you select all it actually selects only what is visible in the address bar.

7.3 finally fixed

  1. messaging text won’t send issue.
  2. Screen and unlock freeze

Has anyone else noticed that battery life has reduced since upgrading to ver. 7.3? It seems to be draining faster even in standby.

I’ve been thinking the same. It isn’t a big change but I think it is real.

The assessment would demand logging of the power consumption for about a week for each version on a rooted device to be able to read the /sys filesystem.

Except if you know some app that can provide such low level information.
