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..

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
EskeRahn replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
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"... Number: XXXXXXXXXXXXX Shipment status: Transit Details: 2023-05-04 07:59:27,清关开始 ARRIVED AT CUSTOMS,Liège 2023-05-04 07:56:44,清关完成 CLEARED BY CUSTOMS,Liège 2023-05-03 18:45:20,离开转运中心 DEPARTED FROM FACILITY,SHANGHAI 2023-05-02 04:52:00,航班起飞 DEPARTED ON OUTBOUND FLIGHT,Hong Kong 2023-04-30 -
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. info@fxtec.com

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.

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
EskeRahn replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
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. 😁

Inquired about a new battery for my Pro 1

Does the destination of the tracking look correct? -

Francisco is not a bot - but most likely over-burdened with tasks, But I do agree, that their communication-skills are sub-optimal, to put it mildly. -
LineageOS 20.0 Official Release for Pro1

...Flashing the boot.img from 20230427 gave touch back to recovery, and optimistically went for a dirty flash downgrade without a wipe. Surprisingly it worked 😄 -

EskeRahn replied to CornholioGSM's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Yup lineage-20.0-20230501-nightly-pro1-signed.zip is severely broken, no touch! The bug is in the boot.img too. I had to navigate with the side keys to even flash. Using the Tab-key and side keys, it can be operated somewhat, and all seems well - except touch.... -
Inquired about a new battery for my Pro 1
EskeRahn replied to sequestris's topic in General Discussion
Indeed it looks bad, but the thing was users can do from within here is tag them, We can only hope that the lag of response is because they are digging to find out what on earth went wrong, but it really looks bad.... -

EskeRahn replied to sequestris's topic in General Discussion
I think Hook got the most likely explanation, that they gave you the wrong tracking number - obviously that does not change that things are messed up. I doubt very much that it is a deliberate action against you. But I do understand your frustration and felling of them adding insult to injury....
