  1. That is the only connector which directly goes to the display, I think it started to loose maybe at the outer edge which is less visible. I am glad it survived this drop with minor damages and the screen works well. Anyway, the easy disassembly process helped a lot, it would not be easily possible on a regular phone...

  2. It looks like bottom v4 already contains the fix that I wanted to do. I'll print it within several weeks and report. Meanwhile, these are the photos of my previous print. Because the mini-jack socket was partially covered by the case, I used some pliers to cut out the covering surface. Another thing that didn't go quite well is the upper part of the bottom case - I only used supports on the build plate and I should've also used them inside, so the upper rim is a little frayed - but it holds well enough. The case was also battle-tested for the first time, the phone once fell screen do

  3. I've seen it reported that the Pro1 doesn't come with its own recovery. There is a standard recovery included with the phone's firmware. I think there may have been some confusion due to the way you need to access recovery mode. To access recovery mode, you have to either: A) Hold down the volume up when you boot the phone (before the logo screen comes up) or B) Use "adb reboot recovery" from a connected computer or C) Boot into the bootloader (by holding down the volume down when you boot the phone (before the logo screen comes up) O

  4. I recently migrated to LineageOS from stock, where I was a happy FinQWERTY user. After seeing it was broken and finding out in the forums that FinQWERTY is expected not to work, I've been crawling all threads related to keyboard layouts and adjustments and nothing I did worked. (In my case -- I'd like to type Portuguese, so I want combining ` ' ~ ^ and ç; none of the built-in options really seem to be comfortable for typing. There's a few alt combinations that are really hard to reach for a couple of them, but not all...) I tried tweaking a KCM as described in but the changes d

  5. Hello, I have dropped my Pro1, which caused ugly dent in bottom cover. Even though screen itself survived scratchless, it stopped working. So I got into disassembly expecting something visibly broken inside, but I could not find anything. The only damage were scratches caused by me trying to get inside the phone 😀. I knew the software was still working, because I could hear morning alarm and all kind of notification noises. Than I noticed the screen replacement on AliExpress had the connector on the side, so this was the final solution: I just disconnected and reconnec

  6. It seems to not always be a requirement, but it do seem to fix it if you got the issue. But an upgrade can survive! The precise condition for when it survives and when it fails is unfortunately currently unknown. PERHAPS it is related to installed keyboard drivers and/or FinQWERTY, but could well be even more complex. Mine was upgraded from 16 to 17 last year and now to 18. I do not recall if I even made a factory reset going from test-16 to release-16 in the autumn... So might be old rudiments that triggers the issue now. If so it could be very hard to reproduce consistently, and thus not v

  8. I will try info@fxtec.com. Both of mine went to support@fxtec.com. Thanks. And an update, I read some old posts where someone confirmed that the elephone u/u pro screen is what the Pro1 uses. Found one here and it is several times cheaper than what F(x)tec charged me: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002314744127.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.64fe4c4dJvkrmj There is a month delivery time, but I have already waited much longer for a screen from F(x)tec that I have no idea if it has/ever will ship.

  9. See the easy fix I've shown at almost the bottom of this https://eskerahn.dk/?p=3651 Simply take a rougly 5x20mm piece of self adhesive felt.
