These are interesting observations. I have never seen this with neither the Pro1 nor the Pro1X. But at 60 I guess that my fingers are quite 'fixed' as-is. I have not 'retrained' the Pro1 since experiments in 2019. (I have the bug that the fingerprint reader sort of stops working on the Pro1, and needs a restart to work - it could be anywhere between a month and the same day, and I struggle to see any pattern in triggering it. MAYBE it is picking it up and attempting unlocking while it still is vibrating with incoming sms. And initially I tried retraining and al kinds of tricks, but for ye

Well that is part of it, yes. But as other have said in a thread on the battery issue, it should have some protection-mechanism doing an auto-shutdown, before it gets so discharged, that it can not be charged.

There are different aspects of this. In principle the Pro1X and Pro1 ought to work roughly equally well/bad. But that unfortunately is not the case all see. First of there are the general issue on what bands TMo uses, versus what the Pro1(x) is supposed to support. And also what the carriers allow into their networks in the US. That long story (that are more general) put aside, quite a number have reported network issues on the Pro1x also where the Pro1 works. But AFAIK, there are no conclusion on why it work for some, and for others not. We are not even sure f it is bound to specime

I'm almost certain that it is NOT the same, as it is placed further from the back on the Pro1X. The port it self could be the same, but would be surprised if the pcb is.

It is always a good idea to occasionally charge it fully, and also (almost) deplete it, for calibration purposes. As the Pro1X seem to have a bug, where you can not have it charging while off, we should be careful NOT to discharge it completely though. (The Pro1 we can enable charging while off, look for "fastboot oem off-mode-charge")

Got any open-source alternatives? Not really no. Obviously a little can be found hidden a bit under Settings►Battery►ellipsis►Battery usage

Unfortunately many are still waiting, some that bought years before you...

This sounds a bit low, how many hours of screen on does that include? If not many hours of screen time a day, you might want to install some helper program (e.g. GSAM or 3C toolbox) to find out where the energy are wasted. Could well be an app that is the culprit. When idle it should burn less than 0.5% per hour. On the other hand with screen on, it can be 10%/hour and even worse if doing something hard. Especially be aware of 'free' apps, the ad's can waste a surprisingly large amount of battery, and thus be a double nuisance.... Some of the apps calling home to deliver the data th

It is great that you do the effort in hunting down replacements, would be so great to know that there is an option, even if the capacity is a bit lower than what we got.

...A totally different question is if it is wise to do so. AFAIK It is not a two-way thing, and should not require location to be turned on. It is the matter of the carrier broadcasting a message over the cell towers covering an affected area. And HOPEFULLY it is needed so rarely that you are unlikely to know if it is on or off. In DK they have started using this with yearly testing, with a nasty ear-wrecking sound, so this year I made sure all my phones were off,,, during the test...

Note also if you in the apps list, select ellipsis and then Show System, there is an app "Emergency Information", that can be stopped but not be disabled easily. You might try the method here (no root needed) to disable it anyway.

Guessing here but some countries might have legislation that prevent it from being turned off. It might be something forced deep in the android kernel? Here in DK, on a Pro1 (not X) on LOS20, I AM allowed to turn them off, On both a Pro1X and a Pro1 on stock Android it is the same. I have not flashed a Pro1X with Lineage (yet), but seems unlikely that it should be generally disabled by LOS for the Pro1X..

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"...

You are welcome. Note that there is also the more expensive solution of buying a display part from FxTec. This is easier to change, and the delivery time can be long, but the last seems not to be an issue for you as touch is working. Maybe you can make some arrangement with them of buying a new display part, and after changing, sending the faulty one back afterwards and get it refunded as warranty? Try to contact their support by mail, and add image(s) illustration the issue. [email protected]

If you go that way, there are some links to disassembly guides in this FAQ post: https://community.fxtec.com/topic/3509-faq-roms-common-how-to-questions-pro1pro1x/

Makes me sad to hear. There is warranty on the phone, but the repair times others have reported is bad currently. To my knowledges all warranty repairs have to go to FxTec in the UK. No official FxTec repair point in the US. BUT it is possible to get a display from elsewhere and have a technician replacing it. (there are guides on this in the forum) Technically the display is the same on the Pro1, the Pro1X and the "Elephone U Pro". BUT replacing it there are usually issues with larger touch margins afterwards, For the Pro1, there is a known fix flashing the stock ROM again

@eorg, thanks, yes indeed it is very tiresome that we have to search for at the least four character words, so no luck looking for NFC, SIM, GSM, LTE, ROM, LOS or similar abbreviations. Not to mention even shorter stuff like 4G. I would have preferred if the search system had somehow white-listed common very short words, likely to be used. (Actually to find the thread I searched for passport, that I knew was mentioned in the text....)

We got a thread on this already.... Will try to find and merge merged

It is a known problem and the known fix is tedious, we got a thread on it, somewhere, will move if/when i find it.

Though it did take a couple of software updates to reach that state, and there still are issues that will never be fixed. But luckily for my they are not crucial for my usage. Whether the known issues with the Pro1X can/will be fixed by updates we do not really know. But in the current state where they struggle to even deliver I do not have my hopes up high for large software updates - Obviously I hope to be proven to be too pessimistic here...

Thanks @Slion not the least for your Fx Service v0.4.0 that I benefit from many many times a day, with a magnet in the flip cover to lock the device. Very very handy. 😁 (Yes I know there are later versions with more functionalities - not even using all the functionality of the early one)

Aeroplane mode is a great thing!. I often use it during meetings or when I go to the Cinema. Much easier and faster to enter/exit than turning off/on. On most devices with quite a low power consumption also. 😁
