Hello, it looks like LineageOs 22.0 from #npjohnson is out 🙂 As always (i mean) updates will be every month. https://updater.oddsolutions.us/devices/pro1/builds So official will be within two months. Maybe will be good to test it and post bugs to npjohnson before official los release because npjohnson is official los developer 🙂 * i will test it within few days

Hello, same as for Pro1 is LineageOs 22.0 from #npjohnson out for Pro1-X🙂 🙂 As always (i mean) updates will be every month. https://updater.oddsolutions.us/devices/pro1x/builds So official will be within two months. Maybe will be good to test it and post bugs to npjohnson before official los release because npjohnson is official los developer 🙂

Thank you Hook for bringing this to my attention. I have now updated all the links in Documentation tab. Everyone should be able to access now.

Newest unofficial LineageOS16.0 (for SD835 Pro1) is available. At https://findus.zwergenschaenke.net/~puma/linux.html#lineagepro1 get the ROM dated 20241116. Changes since last month: Backported security fixes up to the "1 November 2024" ASB. Update system webview and browser to Chromium 130.0.6723.73. Have fun.

F(x)tec has been surprisingly communicative over email. They also sent me a replacement display cable after the display swap didn't fix it, and I'm going to try installing that.

I had noticed that the G-drive links in the official help documents posted by Casey were no longer working (access was denied). I reached out and this was not intentional and they will be fixed sometime this week or so. Just wanted to let folks know. Be patient and the links will work again.

I ordered one of those screens and it just arrived yesterday. Im out of town until beginning of next month but when I get home I'll repair it and let you all know if the screens are calibrated.

Will be 5 years for me December 10th. My Pro1x is actually my daily driver... I like the keyboard better—as a writer, the key mapping for punctuation is better, and I don't do anything that challenges the weaker SOC. But I love my Pro 1 and use it for experiments. Right now experimenting with Google Free Lineage. Both work ok as phones, but I don't use either that way. I have a Pixel 7 Pro which is my phone and point and shoot camera and has all my sensitive bank type stuff. Everything else is on my rooted Pro1x, which means I am using my Pro1x 95% of the time. I honestly never exp

5 Years ago... I received my daily driver, til now! Happy Birthday my lovely Pro1 !!! 😍🎂🥂

So dirty flashed without wipe from last official 21 to this 22. First flashed recovery (boot) and then lineage. ***gapps are included inside OddSolutions builds! All without problem - phone boots normally without any error. Then was only needed to reflash magisk for root access.

"Very soon" is a very flexible term coming from FxTec, but good to know they have it on the backburner. Better than nothing, I guess.

The links were all just restored, so you should be able to get everything from the forum here again. :)

On Sunday, Casey communicated to me that he had all the files and would create new links "Next week." I don't know if that meant the week we are in or really next week. I suspect it hasn't been quicker because he is not where he can easily take care of this. But it will happen. There is someone in our unofficial Discord who is currently sharing the files on Proton Drive if you are impatient. That's where you would want to ask questions about it.

@raymo I fully agree to the 'practical use' comment. During my "active" time, trying to use it as a daily driver, with the specific Pro1X I still own, it was far away from anything like what most people would see as 'practical use', but for some time most of the basic phone stuff – in addition to the keyboard usage I bought it for – somehow worked – but only as long as I carried a small mobile router that gave me WiFi wherever I went, and with Voice over WiFi enabled to at least be able to do calls, however bad the voice connectivity was. It seems each individual Pro1X was a surprise pac

We probably need more information. First, this is for the Pro 1, not the Pro1x. Since this is your first post and you provide no information, just wanted to make sure you understood that, The instructions for the Pro1x is here: Second, if you are asking about flashing Stock Android, I am left to assume you are on another OS such as Lineage. In which case, your bootloader is already unlocked as bad things happen if the bootloader is locked on another OS.

Does anyone have a dummy phone pro1 they can use to program replacment screens for pro1x? Maybe they could offer a servise for a fee? I'd be willing to pay

wow, that's already 5y ! in my case it's about 4½y, and still use it every day with the original Android OS, v9 i believe. because of that i can't install one or two other apps i would need, notably Leica's FOTOS app. ithe Pro1 has its quirks, just like the N900 had it. it's a shame that no big player phone maker produces such a thing - while for a tiny little company like Fxtec it's quasi impossible to come out with a perfect mature product. anyway, i love my Pro1 as it is, and use it every day...

I received a reply today. My advice is to be polite and patient. Send one email and then wait at least a couple of weeks for a response.

But interesting discovery that they aren't really totally black, when looking carefully. Hhere from flashing Linux.

Replaced the screen, well it has 2 defective corners....too bad but at least it's not broken anymore.

No worries, the gnss satellite navigation systems cost tens of thousands so you can go much more expensive for a car GPS :P. I've heard the phone call quality issues before but I've not personally had the issue.

Agree to both of that. And waiting 5+ years for that phone has had one nice side effect – it has increased my patience 😉 (Getting a Pro1 and two Pro1 X from other sources in between did help there, of course; on the other hand, I haven't had an actually usable Fxtec phone for quite some time now.)

I'm indiegogo contributor instead. Just for the record, I had been told earlier that website orders would be shipped "at a leater date" (than Indigogo orders), and now I asked again with their Indiegogo orders reported as done, and I just got the answer "very soon I expect". For Indiegogo backers who didn't get their device yet, I suspect only contacting support can help. But be patient, they can be really slow, and don't send "several emails"; their ticket system has been said to bump a case back to the end of the queue when a follow-up email comes in.

I don't know if it has any answers, but you might look at some of the discussions in this thread: It is mostly a discussion about the Pro1, but towards the end of the thread there is also discussion of the Pro1x. It may not resolve anything, but will give you an idea of what has been tried and with what degree of success.

It might help if you gave more information on where you are at and what you need help with. For instance, have you looked at and tried to follow the instructions here? https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/pro1x/install/ They are actually pretty clear instructions. If you don't understand or are uncomfortable with the instructions, chances are you shouldn't do it. Take your time to read everything carefully and then maybe ask specific questions on what you don't understand.

Dear Pro1-X Backers, We are excited to announce that all devices have now been shipped to backers who have submitted their forms!

I've had three - the one that came with the phone and 2 Aliexpress replacements. The original had 2 tiny black marks in the corners. The first replacement was flawless. Then the phone fell out of my pocket as I got out of a van and that screen shattered when it hit the ground...the next replacement had one large black spot in a corner. It seems to be that the black spots are areas of dead backlighting, you can still just barely see the content especially in dark rooms with the backlight near minimum.

I think you might be referring to @CornholioGSM

@Hook thanks for your comment. I indeed misinterpreted the restore parts of that thread, I thought the warning under (1) would also apply to the section "Repair sensors/ folder in persist.img" (2), but now after re-reading, I am pretty sure you are right, that are two totally different things. I could go the "restorecon" way, I even could dig up a Windows machine somehow, but not too familiar with that OS anymore ... I will ponder a bit more, on how to proceed. I always wanted to have "Convergence", i.e., run all my tools on one machine, and one machine only, but I doubt that I wo

I'm on 2degrees (Welcome Bay) on a Pro1X running LineageOS, and I've had missing SMS for the last 2 or 3 weeks. Discussions with Mrs MonCon revealed that some texts had disappeared into the ether, apparently delivered from my end, never received to her end. Like you, I put my sim into a backup phone and it worked, then back into my PrawnX and it worked. It's just started playing up again. On Friday I sent Mrs MC a few texts from the dining room to the lounge, and when we compared notes, again a few missing. Don't think I've been missing any incoming, but I'll ask around, and n

Hi @Hookand thanks for your reply. I was not aware regarding the 'Our' Unofficial Dicsord. I'm going to take a look...

What an odd issue....🤔 A very long press on the power-button should do a deep restart. That might do the trick for you

Thanks to a heads up from @TeZtdevice, some evidence that Android 15 might be coming (not necessarily soon, but being worked on, as long as they don't hit any show stoppers). https://review.lineageos.org/q/project:LineageOS/android_device_fxtec_pro1x+branch:lineage-22.0

Crazy how most of the batch this is from is probably also busted. Welp I gotta make sure I don't break it again. lol At this point I am just waiting for someone to make a flip with actual headphone jack. (since I like the benefits of a clam in size) But nobody is willing to make one...I honestly don't get the obsession with dust and waterproofing, especially the latter. So yeah until then this old boi needs to hang in there.

Neither did I, but I explicitly told them to forget about the earphones they offered as a replacement as I have no use for them. Might just as well be that they've run out of the earphones, now, too... Should I really get that phone *and* decide to keep it, I still have another, partly damaged Pro1X that I got earlier, so I could salvage its battery if must be. Otherwise, the thread @Hook linked to does seem promising.

Hi everyone, after waiting 4 years, I finally got my phone. Now, I'd like to give Ubuntu Touch a try, afterall, I am running on Ubuntu since 10.04. However, reading here in the forum, I am under the assumption that if I flash Ubuntu, I will no longer be able to go back to stock Android or LineageOS with working sensors, as the Ubuntu flash messes with the persist partition. One can back up those (cf. guide here), but there is no way to restore them ... So, if my experience with Ubuntu Touch is miserable, I might try to sell this thing ... which simply won't work, if the dev

Almost sounds like the protection that allows you to put the screen to your face when talking (which usually darkens the screen) has somehow gone awry. It only happens after you have made a call? What about while you are in the call. Can you pull the phone away from your face and look something up like normal? I've never heard of something like this happening. I wonder if there is some app that is misbehaving?

Yes, it's Android 14 ("MagicOS 8.0"), and Android 15 based MagicOS 9.0 has been announced for November. If it wasn't for either a hardware keyboard or a folder to make the lack of a hardware keyboard less annoying, I'd probably be using a Fairphone. They've an excellent track record for software support, too, and I neither need the fastest chips nor the most advanced cameras in a smartphone...

I'm totally with you. Until Fxtec's Pro1 came along, my limit was more like $500. Even if I like the Honor, I don't expect to pay that much for what effectively is just a phone any time soon. Let's hope it will last a few years. At least they promised Android upgrades for 4 years and security updates for 5 years...
