Tried that. Not working. It's looping the Google Services login again and again.

Going through instructions I find "Make sure your computer has adb and fastboot". Got the sources but the installation instructions of adb tells "Download the USB drivers" where I would find a list "Get OEM drivers" which does not include FxTec Pro1X. I found a link inwhich includes the "Qualcomm_USB_Driver_V1.0.exe". I am not sure, could it be that this is the necessary OEM USB driver ? Additionally it tells me to "Enable USB debugging on your device" as one of the initial steps. But actually I cannot start the device itself, that was a reason to flash the other OS. Which bring

Before I start flashing the device with the Lineage version, I want to make a backup of the device. I already read in some posts, that the backup is possible here: Link but there is no guarantee if it can be restored, right ? And FxTec tells that they "shipped our Pro1-X’s with 'OEM unlocked'". Does that mean the bootloader is unlocked as needed for backup and changes ? And how to tell if the recovery boot option is available. Sorry for this kind of basic questions. But I am just starting with all this.

Guess I will have some more questions on this. - Does the LineageOS have something like the "Advanced Privacy" from /e/OS which needs to be considered on installation ? Found this one link but I'm not so sure if it is as updated as the pure lineage version. The dates are a but confusing. Anybody having experience ? - The LineageOS install guide says: "Boot your device with the stock OS at least once and check every functionality. Make sure that you can send and receive SMS and place and receive calls (also v

I C and now we install those images ourselves. But are those images already aligned with the Pro1X or do we need to fondle around with additional firmware and stuff ?

Sounds good. I guess I will need to try this. I hope it's not too complicated needing a lot of insider knowledge on those devices and tools. I wonder why they make you choose the OS (I chose Lineage) and there's so much fuzz about all the different OS they offer, if in the end they all send out android anyway.

Unfortunately it does not allow me to skip. It always loops back to the google login screen.

This actually works. Thanks for this hint. Took me some hours to realize the screen was already turning on and off again. 😅 Well, now I'm stuck with starting it (link). Anyway, helped a lot to fight first resignation after opening a package I waited for more than 2 years, facing it seems broken.

Hello, just got my new Pro1-X (ordered >2 years ago I guess). It was completely drained and not able to charge or boot. Thanks for Charging dead Pro1X to help out. It worked. But now I face a screen asking me for google credentials. What the.... AFAIR LineageOS was meant to work without Google using FDroid, MicroG and stuff. Now, why do I need to enter Google credentials ? I tried skipping but it only leads me to the next login page. So how can I start using this phone with a Google free approach and no Google login ? Any help ? And in case the Pro1X is not
