OrangeFox Recovery NEWS
OrangeFox Recovery R11.0 is near. R11.0 heralds a new era for OrangeFox Recovery. We started development in last year, and right now we are adding finishing touches. You can find the changelog here. Very soon we will start updating our devices to the R11.0…
R11.0 for Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 (lavender) after moving the deadline, is finally released.

Download it here (https://orangefox.download/en/build/lavender/stable/R11.0). In that time (3 days) we have patched potentially critical issues.

Other timelines are not moved, and all should be as expected.

Also, we want to remind you that you should please NOT ask us about new updates. Updates will be released smoothly, after sustained beta-testing, and when we are sure that releases will be bugless.

Today we have updated our bot (@ofoxr_bot). It was rewritten from scratch, and is now faster, better, and supports new features:
- From now admins can subscribe chats/channels to individual devices. This will also work in pm - type /subnoscriptionhelp in the bot's PM to get started.
- Partial localization support translations have been added on our crowdin page.

For our bot we created our own python library and updated our API. You can read about the changes in the development news channel
We are pleased to announce OrangeFox Recovery R11.1 Stable

Year 2021 was really successful for us.
Launch of R11.1 version, new supported devices and under the hood successes.
But, 2021 has come to an end. We hope you had a really good time this year, and we wish you Happy 2022!

As you people might have noticed, the development of OrangeFox's Android 11 sources is a bit slower than usual. The main reason for this being that none of the core Developers have a device to work on that utilizes GKI, Virtual A/B or any of the other Android11 specific features.

To tackle this, we have decided to open crowdfunding for a Xiaomi Poco F3. The device will go to one of the core developers to ensure that OrangeFox will support all the new features.
In addition to that, the device will be officially maintained.

Please consider making a contribution.
OrangeFox is fully open-source, free, doesn't have ads, and is still going on only because of Your support.

We are living in difficult times right now. 3 years ago, the COVID-19 pandemic erupted. The whole world has been reeling from its devastating impact. As we were about to catch up, a new deadly roadblock has appeared.

There is a very violent conflict currently going on between Ukraine and Russia. It already has taken a lot of innocent lives, spreading consternation and worry around the world. The OrangeFox team, having its core members and infrastructure in the country under assault, is also very concerned about the security of people.

Please, consider donating to your local charities that support Ukrainians, as we also pray for their safety and future lives. We encourage you to verify every piece of information about this conflict that you get, as is much disinformation and fake news spreading.

To the Ukrainians - please stay safe and take care!

OrangeFox Recovery will be moving its infrastructure into maintenance mode in order to perform much needed upgrades. This is required to keep OrangeFox Recovery's infrastructure the most innovative and to provide the best user experience. The process may last up to two weeks. During this time, sites, the API, and other services may sometimes not be available. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.

Please look at this message in @OrangeFoxNEWS (Telegram), as it will be updated during the process.

There have been malevolent and dangerous people who try to impersonate members of the OrangeFox team. They often send PMs to people, pretending to give them good advice. However, the "advice" usually given is to try to get people to run commands that will permanently brick their devices.

Please note that nobody in the OrangeFox team will send you a PM. If you receive a PM from anybody who pretends to be one of the OrangeFox team, you should delete the PM immediately. Most importantly, do NOT run any commands that the person suggests to you. If you do so, and you brick your device, do NOT come to the OrangeFox groups for help. We cannot help you.

You must be extremely suspicious about any advice that comes through a PM, or through somebody pretending to be a member of the OrangeFox team posting advice outside of the official OrangeFox groups. You have been warned!

Recently, a backdoor in the xz package was reported (source: https://news.opensuse.org/2024/03/29/xz-backdoor/). Our OrangeFox infrastructure was utilizing the vulnerable version.

In order to safeguard the security of all our users, we have ultimately decided to shut down the infrastructure until we can ensure that there is no intrusion of any kind in our system. 🦊

As the infrastructure operator, I acknowledge the recent downtimes and apologize for any inconvenience caused. Please stay tuned to this message as it will be updated periodically.

Update - the downloads website and wiki are restored

The basic services have been restored, and your security remains our top priority. We have thoroughly validated every single OrangeFox release, ensuring that none of them has been tampered with in any way.

Upon searching our servers, we found nothing suspicious, and we have taken all necessary steps to ensure the integrity of the servers. We do not store any personal data, or any device or IP identifiers, ensuring that there is nothing to leak.

We have enhanced our security infrastructure and will continue to adhere to the latest security guidelines.
