Yes the link in the op is always up to date. It is a symlink on the server. I'll add the link to the actual file and the md5 hash for clarity.

New build is up. Build date is today, 2021/02/06. It is available via OTA (settings -> aicp -> updates) or direct download. Changes are virtually all security/bugfix updates, updates to the adblock hosts file, and language translation updates.

According to the Battery University, keeping Lithium battery fully charged at 25C one year degrades it 20%. Limiting temperature and max charge slows the decay an gives more charge cycles. I think it would be best to keep the battery at 40% charge and keep the phone in the fridge in an airtight bag with activated silica gel packs and only keep and use the phone in fridge like temperatures. Touching the phone with fingers or cheek, no-no-no.

😁 From their measurements, it seems that simply charging up to 80% instead of 100% would prolong the usable battery life by more than 50%. Like 3 years instead of 2. That's already quite nice...

Yes, it has twon SIMs. ...or it may have one SD-Card and one SIM. @claude0001wanted to say if there is enough space on internal storage, there may no need of using an SD-Card, so there is a possibility of using both SIM slots.

The point was the larger memory, reducing the need for in inserted SD-card

If you are not rooted, Accu Battery is a useful app. It is not as good as Battery Charge Limit as it doesn't do the slowdown and stop, but you can set an alarm for a certain charge limit. Unfortunately, not great for charge while you sleep, but cheaper and less easy to lose than the Chargie. 😉

I haven't found much with regard to independent reviews on the net and the company seems to be quite new, but from what I see there (including the feedback on Play Store for the accompanying app), it looks very, very promising. It's basically kind of a USB stick that sits between the charger and the phone, talking to a dedicated app on the phone, stopping the charge at a user-defined limit like 80%. I've just ordered three, and while I can't test it with a Pro¹ because I haven't got mine yet, I'll be giving it a thorough try. Wish I would have had something like that for the last couple o

The limit has a time-out, and if I remember right there has already been added a fix so that multiple attempts in very short succession does not count, that is basically what would would happen if you held the device on/close to the sensor.

Thanks! it downloaded and installed smoothly (flashing).😎 Please also update the "Current build: 2020-11-02" in the OP. 😉 Add: And for those wondering it is on the January 05 Security update.

Sorry, forgot to ask, will the link in the op have the new version as before? I prefer to flash over ADB and may have to anyway when I get my Pro1 back from repairs. Could you change the date in the description of the link in the OP when you load a new one? Not a big deal, but would let people know it's the newest file when the file has the same name always.

Can't wait to try it when my Pro1 gets back from London (on it's way). More beers coming after payday Wed.

Seems to be a good solution for non rooted devices. For rooted devices, I just tested "Battery charge Limit" (open source), which seems to work pretty well: I set a limit at 90 % charge and the charge slow down before this limit and does not exceed this value.

I guess so:

Just got an email from FxTec that my Pro1 was repaired by replacing the display and is on it's way back to me. So, one month. Pretty good, especially given lockdown. Thank you, FxTec!

Just to tie my story up, just got an email from FX that they have replaced my display and are shipping it back to me (FedEx to US). Only a month, I'm very happy! 😄 I was worried with lockdown it would take longer. Thank you, FxTec.

Hi, just considering taking my pro1 apart, the main camera has stopped working (just shows black) then the app exits. I cannot see A connector in the Teardown photos, is it possible it could have come loose?

Being in the UK does severely limit your target audience as basically everyone outside it would pay import duties as of januari...

It's interesting, but it seems a little pricey for what it is. I'm eagerly waiting for your review.
