  1. (lineage-20.0-20230731-nightly-pro1-signed.zip on July 5 security patch installed smoothly (*) using adb sideload and MindTheGapps-13.0.0-arm64-202230408_162909) (*) A new question after the main flash on whether to reboot to recovery for additional flashing, must be answered with No, otherwise the PC sees the flash as failed. Instead you (like previous versions) from the main menu need to manually select Advanced and Reboot to recovery,
  2. 4.1V does not sound like a dead battery. I would expect some reaction on the LED when plugged in, but as you see neither this nor anything on the display, my suspicion would go to the ribbon cable between the two halves... As we are talking Pro1 and not Pro1X, you might try a hdmi-adapter, and see if you get an image on a monitor. If you plug it into a PC, does it react in any way, can you from the device manager see that there is something? Even if it is Off, the pc should react somehow... At the least in principle you should be able to operate the device, even without the scre
  3. And if you do not want to use the keyboard, you can get a lot more value for the same money from other models... But that apart, it could still be an interesting protecting case for e.g. transportation, or while using it say on a bike for GPS navigation. They are available outside Canada. Just change the .ca top domain in the link to one suitable for you, e.g. .de: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B0B8S1BC74 And the price does not seem that bad: €16.50 with shipping.

  5. Just out of curiosity, do you see a different code for an 'enrolled finger' and any other rejected finger?
  6. Interesting. It would be great if FxTec could reproduce the bug. IMHO that would make it much more likely that they can find a fix. Let me tag @Casey here, and hope you can get in direct contact. I hope they will be willing to take a trip to your location.
  7. Oh I'm not trying to say that it is not bad! What I'm saying is that we have not got a clue if it is 10% or 90% that are affected by the severe bug. we do not even have a clear pattern, so we can not say that it is likely or unlikely to work for anyone - and that only adds to the frustration... We do not even know if it is specific locations&carrier combinations that are not supported correctly, or if it is specific devices that would fail all over. I lean towards it being some particular environment it fails to handle correctly. My personal GUESS is that it is some band-swit

  9. I guess this whole thread is just a particular case of the more general one here. You might want to experiment with this really really odd hint, of actively reducing the signal...
  10. Well it is not hard to get good adhesives. The big question if it has a good balance on keeping it stuck on one hand, and being removable on the other.
  11. We have previously seen universal cases that comes with an adhesive foil..
  12. Just a thought. How about 3d-printing a Pro1(X?) replica in a somewhat hard and brittle material? Perhaps enclosing some metal plates to give the proper weight, and then use that for drop-testing?

  14. AFAIK there is only one release build for the Pro1X (There are some newer Beta, but that is a different story)
  15. For new readers: Unfortunately we do not even know the conditions where/when it works or not. (apart from the supported/unsupported bands) In the US add the problem with some providers requiring model whitelisting, that it might be possible to circumvent with a mule device.
  16. If my memory does not fail me we have had at the least one other post on this, though I think it was quite a while back, maybe 2020 or 2021? If I recall correctly it was the screw under the sticker that was loose.
  17. Sorry was unclear, meant the frame of the whole phone. The rather thin outer frame around the display shold not matter much for the stability (no matter the material). The base of the top part is metal I beleive, right?
  18. Well if the displays and mount are the same, the weakest point are likely to be the same... 😉
  19. The producer of the displays. https://www.boe.com/en/
  20. In all fairness towards Boe, it seems to be related to stress on the cable. Sure if the cable-construction had been more sturdy, then the mount would have been less critical. I have no idea if the display comes with very strict mount guides of the fragile cable-construction. If not, the blame is on Boe. If there is a guide that is not followed, the blame is on FxTec.
  21. That's my guess too. Even if metal frame, it still is in risk of being twisted, unless you got very deep pockets - and no, I do not mean in the sense required for aPple users... This is actually another good reason to make it a habit to place it on your desk while sitting. You get better reception, and thus prolonged stamina as well.
  22. (Note that the same exists for both the Pro1X and Pro1. I added the link in the FAQ-ROM thread, but have not tried either)
  23. On the first, I said that in the first line 😉 But there COULD be a reason to get it from FxTec, as many have reported quality issues with the one we have bought on AliExpress. It might very well be that the cheap one we see offered are units that failed the quality control and are sold of cheap. Especially many reports black corners - some sellers listings even state that there are black corners. And indeed there are risks in detaching it. Personally I too would rather take the risk with displays from aliexpress, than attempting a transfer, but @KingOfTerrible explicitly asked a
  24. The spare part FxTec sells includes a little more than the display itself, and these two we know are not identical. I'm not 100% the display itself is completely identical, but I believe so. That is that it is the Boe display also used for the Elephone U Pro, that we can find as a spare part on Aliexpress. When using a display from Aliexpress a factory reset (wiping all user data) is needed for the Pro1, as this is the only way we know of to get the code executed that sets the touch margins of the display. So even if FxTec confirms that the display is the exact same, you might need to do
