Lineageos was renamed from 22.0 to 22.1. Last update from December 21. must be installed via adb sideload...but dirty flash works fine and all data and settings still. After install is needed to renew magisk. Minimal gapps are still included in oddsolutions version of lineage. (google play&services, messages and phone)

I had just posted a "I give up on this" post as endless hours on rubber bands seemed to not be producing results.  But then, just to spite me, lol, it booted.  It was about 22%, I plugged it in and it began losing % again.  So I quickly swapped  in a fast chard 20000mAh Anker external batter and for the first time got the rapid charging message and it is up to 30%.  I think this may be a problem with the Pro1x's charging brick.  Which would explain how it got drained while attached to the charging brick (I tried different cables, so I think it's the brick). More when it gets fully charged and I make some more tests... EDIT: Somewhat later. So everything is working again. The Pro1x is fully charged (85%) and it is holding the charge and the brick is able to maintain it, just like my Pro 1.  The rubber band worked but it seemed incapable of getting the phone past about 22% and the brick seemed incapable of providing enough charge when the battery was that low to keep it from losing % but a rapid charge exterior battery worked.   So seems to be an interaction here.  At proper charge levels, the brick is capable of doing maintenance charge, but at some low value is not delivering enough charge to handle maintenance charge.  Not being much of an expert on batteries and charging, I have no idea if these observations make sense.  I still have no idea how the Pro1x got fully discharged, but it must have somehow crossed the line where it was no longer getting enough charge to maintain much less recharge. If someone who knows what they are talking about has a theory here, I'd love to hear.  I don't even know how to use a multimeter. Lol. But, for now, my Pro1x is back.  As long as it behaves now, that's all I need to know.  😄 EDIT2: It's the brick. The Pro1x started loosing % plugged in and I noticed when I plugged and unplugged, I would get the lightning bolt for a few seconds and then it would go away. I tested with the brick my Pro 1 uses and that didn't happen.   So I pulled out the brick that came with my other Pro1x and it also worked, retaining the lightning bolt.  I hadn't noticed this detail when the Pro1x was fully charged.  So I have given my old Pro1x the charging brick from the new Pro1x.  Something is just failing in the old charging brick.  Hopefully, I'm done here.  Lol.

Lineage-21.0-20241221-nightly-pro1-signed.zip on December 1 (2024) security patch, installed smoothly using OTA

After having a full days use of using this configuration, I can say I'm quite pleased with the results. I had no crashes and everything works as if it was native to the device. It brings back memories of my old nokia n900. its nice being able to use the keyboard and not have to rotate screen every time. Please share your desktops as well!

So, this is strange.  Somehow, even though it was actually connected to power, charging overnight, when I went to check my Pro1x yesterday, it was completely drained of power.  Which is weird... even if the magnetic cable had come loose, I can't see it draining over night.  I was busy yesterday, so I didn't discover it until the end of the day (yes, I actually have days where I don't use my Pro1x, but remember, although it actually seems okay at making calls, I use a Pixel for calls and point and shoot camera and my Pro1x for everything else).  So, this just seems weird, especially as I have a back-up Pro1x that I don't use and haven't installed anything on that I only have to charge every 3 weeks and it still never drops below 70%, lol. So I have had it on a rubber band now for 24 hours. It still hasn't booted, but I have confirmed it has charged to 21% (it was 3% yesterday) but still isn't drawing enough to maintain that with power hooked up. So I think mine will be one of the 48 hour edge cases. I'll just keep it going until it shows signs of recovery.  I think it will get there, but I'm really curious what could have caused the battery drain.  Is there some other aspect to this bug with the battery that can result in sudden discharge. Probably just I was careless on a couple of really busy days, but still odd.
