Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
EskeRahn replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
That they knew back then that things is going to happen in December could have more explanations than your suggestion. My guess for the specifics in this delay is that the case has been put to court, and they got a court date in December. But obviously this is just a guess, too. Have you any suggestions for a rationale behind your theory? If it is 'ordinary' negotiations, a known time frame from the start seems unlikely, and if they even expected the negotiations to fail, as you suggests, what could they possibly gain by a delay? I have not kept an eye on the igg numbers, but -
AH! That explains it! I made several cases for the org. Pro1, in various colours, and they did not fit the Pro1X well around the USB, and I thought I had cut it wrong... *LOL* But a good thing they raised it slightly, as not all plugs fitted well on the org. Pro1, especially round magnetic charging plugs were slightly too big. I will have too see if I gave them away or have them around somewhere, to check if they fit the Pro1X

Nice with a revival, the thread sort of died with my dog.

....Sounds like a bug to me....

A thanks! so that is not what has happened here then.....

It was so for me, though it had a number of air-jumps HK-UK-Leipzig-Copenhagen-Billund. and then 150Km in a Lorry. But the 'express' parcel took 12 hours just to leave HK. -

Me neither - or at the least I tried to turn them off.... 😂 -

Well, though the shipping prices for the US are tolerable, they are a bit extreme for "the rest of the world", I paid HK$450, some paid $550, and well yes the did send it "express" when they finally got around to send it. It took a few hours over a week, and it was NOT due to them awaiting replies from me more than half an hour or so. I ordered it Friday morning (CET), and they handed it to FedEx Tuesday evening, And I had it Friday afternoon. AND as it is unlikely FxTec has ordered it "express", I would say two WEEKS is more realistic than two DAYS.... -
Hmm, I do not know much on the QFIL-flashing, But my hunch is that the partitioning is wrong. Could it be that something have resized partitions, in a way the standard flashing procedure do not overwrite? It reminds me of bugs on disks or usb-sticks where the partition table is incorrect. Obviously there is also the risk of a defective storage chip. Let us hope @Casey can help....

At the least it means that my nasty and rather paranoid theories can be put to rest.... The only bad thing here seems to be that the contract FxTec made with Expansys did not have a clause saying that Expansys could not put theirs up for sale, before they had packed and shipped those intended for Pre-orders and Backers. That Expansys might have lost faith in the product and is selling them cheaper than even the Super Early Bird devices, obviously just add to the frustration. And there clearly is a risk of some regretting orders, and thus draining capital from FxTec. Let us hope the Expan -
LineageOS 19.1 Official Release for Pro1
EskeRahn replied to wapsi's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
(lineage-19.1-20221024-nightly-pro1-signed.zip on October 5 security patch installed smoothly using adb sideload and MindTheGapps-12.1.0-arm64-20220605_174313) Still with the keyboard bug introduced that messes accessibility apps (works on AICP R/S based on Android 11/12) see e.g. this. Spontaneous boot trying to update apps!!! But happy after boot... Status bar spontaneously disappear.... ???? Happened twice within the first minutes of 'jumping around', and reappeared spontaneously too. Maybe some of all these damned gesture things I have triggered??? -
I'm not totally sure but Settings ► About Phone ► Build Number Should say V2.1.2_20220707 There is a version without Google-apps available available (non-GMS) here, I do not know if it got the same stamp. The beta-versions available I expect will have newer stamps.
-
Now that is weird, Maybe you need to check with support ( https://fxtec.com/contact-us ) But maybe first ask the seller if (s)he had the fingerprint-reader working? I know from the old Pro1 that some disliked the fingerprint-reader so much that they unplugged it, and who knows, the previous owner might have done so on your Pro1X?
-
In Settings ► Security , down in the group "Device security", what options do you see? I got "Screen lock", "Fingerprint" and "Smart Lock" (...Just to be sure you are on stock Android, right?)
-
Welcome. 🙂 It should ask you to set it up in the normal Google wizard You should be able to do from Settings ► Security ► Fingerprints If that does not work, then something is wrong.....

Even more expensive shipping and customs than mine, though in the same ball park. -

Both, HK$2649 for the Pro1X, HK$450 charged by expensys for shipping to other than US and China, and €102 in customs and fees collected by the shipper... At the least they did not declare the exorbitant shipping, so I was not slapped customs&tax on top of that.... -

Well I got it from Expansys, and has added voting options here... 45% surcharges, €530 in total. -
Have a look here https://community.fxtec.com/topic/3513-time-to-take-action-us-carrier-whitelisting-verizon-and-att/?do=findComment&comment=60544 I guess T-Mobile is doing the same thing....

(got it, €102 in customs, on top of the €428 incl shipping, so €530 in total)
