OTA worked great as well. By the way, since I had to recently do a first flash after leaving my Droidian experiment, I now have the newer MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64-20230408_162909. They are fine, and I don't notice any difference, so probably no reason to update.

You can store batteries at around 30-40% battery and if they aren't connected to anything, they'll hold the charge and capacity. If you want to use it for something, there are 5V to 4.2V converters, you'll get those on ebay for 3-5 dollars.

On the top of the battery, there's a sealed circuit. It's around 5mm wide and sealed in some yellow tape. I haven't opened the FxTec battery but most batteries have their two terminals which go into the circuit (usually a BMS - battery management system, sometimes including thermal sensors). I'm 99% sure we'll find the same thing here. And yes, the connector has positive and negative output (4 pins each, I believe), you can measure the battery by those outer pins and also charge it up to 4.2V with them. You could also measure it through your mainboard, there are golden (round) test spots

Hard to say. I have a small "express" parcel (smart watch bought April 26) that according to tracking was sent from Shenzen April 27, After a week(!) it had reached Shanghai, and it have been stuck in France since May 4, and that is AFTER it was cleared by customs. So much for "express"...

On april 24 I received an email my order was complete, yet 3 weeks later I have seen no phone, nor has customs contacted me. Is this a dead end ?

20 hours before my flight, finally everything up and running. The screen flickers and dies on me 😑. I shit you not. Whn I press the power button the screen flashes yellow and that's it. Bye bye Pro1, back to FxTec you go 🤕.
