I've seen a few posts raising concerns about how much longer this community forum will be available. It seems F(x)tec is still in business, working on the Clicks keyboard case and other projects, but I don't know if there's a future for the Pro1 line. I've gained a lot of useful information from here, so as a precaution, I saved an offline copy of the forum over the weekend. Specifically, the command I used to mirror the forum was: wget -E -k -m -np -p https://community.fxtec.com The archive is about 17 GB in total. Compressed as .tar.gz, it shrinks to about 2.3 GB, which I think i

Helga is still here, but a whole lot more gray, just like me. 11 years old now...

Necromancing this thread with a dog I got yesterday...

Try this. The download links seem to work (I am not knowledgable on any of this)... https://web.archive.org/web/20200406195436/http://files.nwwn.com/android/pro1/factory.html

One more update, with apologies for the triple-post. I received a secondhand original Pro1 in the mail from the indefatigable @Hook. Using the official flashing guide from this thread, I updated the Pro1 to firmware 20200825 and re-ran the initial setup process (including a one-time factory reset). The Pro1 was confirmed to be working normally. However, when I unplugged the original Pro1 screen frame and plugged in my Pro1 X screen frame (with the replacement Elephone screen attached), the Pro1 immediately entered a boot loop. I then went back to the guide and reflashed all the firmw

Hi everyone, I apologize for having gone MIA for so long. I started a new job a few months ago and have had very little free time up to now. I am still offering to flash Pro1 X screens. @Burkhard, I've sent a follow-up e-mail.

I'm going to approach this thread a little differently. Rather than endless pages of new posts with each weekly update I install where everything goes smoothly, I'm going to simply update post #2 with the current week's information, Any new additional posts will now either be because I had trouble with it that week or people are discussing Lineage 24 on the Pro1x, That will mean that the thread won't show there is an unread post when I update and you will just have to check the thread if you want to know if I updated and it was successful. And, if no one has much to say, the post may

Apologies for not checking this thread more regularly! I can still flash screens for the Pro1 X.

No - the same plug, the same voltage, similar capacity, but no way to fit it into Pro1 case

Finally I can add something of value to this forum :-) This is Harry, he is a rescue and living with us since a good year now.

Here is it for you 🙂 https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HxTmm2_oW65ijT2Ewf7pCh4qjF_JKHkK/view?usp=sharing

I never read your post, just your PM 🤪

So, I tried doing LOS 23.2 (the Feb 9th update) as if it were a new install with were a new install, doing a factory reset and all. It just made things worse,,, I got the same symptom of it only booting to bootloader, but worse because I finally could not get back to LOS 23.0 and, of course, I couldn't reinstall 23.0 because that was viewed but the system as a downgrade. So on a whim, I decided to try something. I did the whole thing over again (including factory reset-- nothing to lose at this point), but this time I didn't flash Magisk. Boom, Everything worked. I was also able to up

Warning! ⚠️ Tried to update to Lineage-23.2-20260209-NIGHTLY-pro1x (notice we have jumped from 23.0 to 23.2). It reboots to the bootloader menu. It won't reboot to system and if you go to Recovery, rebooting to recovery does not change the slot. However, doing a shutdown, booting the phone (you still end up in bootloader menu), going to Recovery and doing a System reboot finally boots the older Lineage 23.0 (Future reboots are fine) with 23.2 in the updater labeleed as needing installing. This problem has been reported in the their Github for two other devices with people having tri

I may try it one of these days

F(x)tec never had all the driver sources. And even if they did, they would not have been allowed to publish them. A prominent exception is the keyboard, which is the one hardware component they developed themselves. The rest of the hard- and software came from a Chinese OEM. The idea that f(x)tec ever wanted to make the Pro1/Pro1X "open" phones is a misconception introduced by some media and bloggers. F(x)tec never publicly corrected that misunderstanding, presumably as they hoped to profit from all that "Linux-phone" hype. In reality, the Pro1 was designed as a pretty standard, proprieta

Lineage-24.0-20261013-NIGHTLY-pro1x with October 1st security patch installed smoothly using the Lineage upgrade procedure linked below. It was installed with MindtheGapps 17 and Magisk 31.7 installed as a zip for SU only and root is working fine. All data was preserved in the upgrade. All went according to plan and everything seems to be working so far.

Changelog: https://download.lineageos.org/devices/pro1x/changes Apparently, the June 29th update last week included a major change to the updater. It's fine once you figure it out, but given that all you are doing is downloading and installing, the older, much simpler UI was easier. I hate changes in UI for no other reason than to make things look prettier. This is much better being treated as a terminal app. Sheesh. Lol. I'm just old an

Phew! That was close. Didn't get a chance to update until Tuesday night and discovered my Pro1x had been knocked loose from it's magnetic charging cable. It was rebooting and came up with 7% power. Was it in a boot loop because power was so low? Did I need my rubber bands. Apparently not. Don't entirely know why it was spontaneously rebooting, but it didn't start shutting down again. I connected the charging cable and turned off the screen and a couple of hours later it was full (Have it set to not charge over 85%. I think I was lucky. Lol. All's well that ends well. 😄 Lineage-23.2

Well, color me surprised, but after getting the phone back in an almost normal state (Android flashed back on it with the official image from Fxtec - and a 99% broken fastboot implementation in the bootloader), my phone actually has it's IMEI still intact (The one I see with *#06#*, I haven't tried to check the second one yet) and everything works as it should, so apparently it is possible to overwrite the persist partition without any issue ??? 🤔

Did the OTA update on both Gapps and non-Gapps phones as described above. Root was maintained by method described above (ie. the current Magisk recommended method). Updated Magisk app from v.30.6 to 30.7 during the process. All is well.

I whined about multiple bugs with 22.2 in the LOS thread here. The 22.1 is fine, so I would suggest to start to go for 22.1, before travelling further backwards. Last 22.1 was: lineage-22.1-20250405-nightly-pro1-signed.zip That can be found here: https://lineage-archive.timschumi.net/build/29528

Interesting. I just did this update on one of my Pro 1x phones, and it worked fine. I did it the usual way that I do to avoid losing root, ie. wait for the update process to require reboot, then open Magisk, select install to vacant slot, then reboot. All working tickety boo now, version 23.2-20260209-NIGHTLY-pro1x Of course LTE reception remains unusably bad, but that kinda goes without saying now. I guess I should wait for the next update for my other 1x.

android auto latest version from the play store. never experienced your problem. version 16.1.660414-release com.google.android.projection.gearhead using QX1000 on lineageOS 22.1 2025 02 22 nightly build just used it today with AAWireless adapter for wireless android auto on sony XAV-100, prior to that i used to use it via cable and also did not experience what you are seeing

Hello all, As @elvissteinjr correctly stated, Pro1 needs a kernel patch to be supported in LOS 23. in the concrete case that the ebpf backport will not be available for the kernel 4.4, I googled for msm8998 devices and there are one or two shipped or updated with kernel 4.14. maybe trying to update the kernel to that version is the way to. Also thinking that some hardware is shared with pro1x that is shipped with 4.19 will make easier the compilation. Do we have the kernel sources for pro1?
