Cosmo might have similar problems getting their devices from China to the rest of the world. This is certainly not a problem limited to FxTec and Pro1X for the time being. I know from dialogue with FxTec that the Pro1X I perked for is in Batch 1, and is long delivered from FxTec and they can see that it has been 'processed', but yet it hangs in the shipping so I have not even got a shipping info mail yet.... I guess Expansys/Fxtec awaits enough parcel for Denmark to actually send it? 🤬

If they got it for the Pro1. Things have changed slightly for the Pro1X. The fingerprint-reader is new, and I believe they said the antennas are changed too. Obviously these could be backwards compatible.

I guess it is a matter of what aspects you will discus. If they are general UT questions they will easily be lost in here, only seen by Pro1X/Pro1 users. if they are specific to the Pro1X/Pro1, this could be a fine place.

On the speakers issues several has mention I frankly still doubts it is hardware connections that is the issue. It could not explain the popping sounds, and it certainly should not just go away increasing the volume. Though you specimen could of course have another speaker issue related to the contacts. If/when you have the bug again, try increasing and decreasing the volume(!). At mine (though not a retail unit) the sound vanished completely below about 50%, and was not affected at 100% In between it was partially chopped and with popping sounds. Later it worked normally also at low volu

AFAIK the standard TWRP does not support the Pro1 - have a look in this thread or search the forum for "twrp" and see what can be found.

Note that mine is not a retail unit, so could have been improved since 🙂

Frankly I think we have a better chance in patching in the keys binary in a working image, than trying to mount and fiddle inside a not functioning image with the right keys.

If you run the Camera2 app, it reports for both the Pro1 and Pro1X that it ought to be able to do raw. The biggest difference reported seems to be on video where the Pro1 apart from the QFHD (or 3840x2160) as the highest, it also reports it can do 4000x3000 - does not sound very likely though... So maybe the information reported through the Camera 2 API is simply incorrect.... And that can obviously confuse an app trying to use it.

What an odd bug. Reminds me of a bug between A Huawei Band 7 and an ancient Iphone 6, where I had to in BOTH ends say that it shall forget the other end.

Sounds likely when modifying inside the volume. Copying the whole image seems to work. Just tried with 108GB userdata, via recovery and adb, and it worked just fine. Updated this.

Split works just fine here, both portrait and landscape. With the android limitation of only offering one 50:50 split in landscape, and 30:70, 50:50, 70:30 in portrait

Interesting. I doubt that the sensors are calibrated, to some standard source, so not surprised the numbers are not correct. The two devices could also have a difference in how wide they are getting light . The main purpose of the sensor is to allow for adaptive brightness. But sure would be nice if they (or we?) could calibrate them correctly.

We also have post talking on the issue over here (though no known fix yet) Oddly it does not seems to be always, I do not think it is a contact-issue though - but could be wrong.

(added this, on doing it through the Recovery rather than a running android, that might not go well with all partitions, especially restore)

Added a fairly easy way to backup partitions here

Some simple non-comprehensive non-scientific tests seems to show that the Pro1X is a tad better than the Pro1 with WiFi 5HGz, about 4db, (placed on the same spot within 1cm) though AIDA64 says the linkspeed is somewhat better on the Pro1. (520 vs 433 Mbps) If I try the Titan Slim at the same spot, it reports the exact same linkspeed as the Pro1X, but the signalstrength, is about 10db better...

If you install "KeyEvent" you can see the reader generates a 135 / 470, maybe you can map that away similar to the camerabutton 27 / 212 ?

I found a way to backup partitions that also works for windows, with just the usual ADB on the PC. HOWEVER this ONLY works for an unlocked device. ADD: The below only works on Linieage/AICP not stock android, see also this If not unlocked - unlock wiping data, or look for another method.... Make sure that your phone is in developer mode [*], and allows adb to connect as root (the phone does NOT need to be rooted) Connect cable and run (first time you must accept the connection from the pc) adb root adb shell find /dev/block/platform -name "by-name" -exec ls -al {}

Thank you for this thread (i added a link here)

I do not know where it should be done, have not come across a place for it browsing around. (I might have the permissions though, if I knew where to try. The tag "KeyMasters" could indicate that I do ) I have suggested the staff to do it some time ago, but I guess that they are either too busy, or disagree. ADD Found this, and I do not see these options, so I assume that is an indication of lack of rights.

I usually say that it is a bit like riding a bike. Hard to explain, hard to do at first, and when your body learned it, you can not understand how it was hard in the first place. But a simple way to open is to lift the back edge of the display, rather than pushing the front edge 'downish'. With a little exercise , this can be combined with touhching the fingerprint reader, thus doing all in one motion.

Are you asking why they do not pay for being swindled? What we paid for for was supposed to be hardware usable with the software for the Pro1. Perhaps with minor improvements. As hook already explained they were swindled and did not get the chips they paid for, and could not get them anywhere else. So was thus unable to deliver anything compatible with that software. So you then see it as their responsibility to develop software for a different chipset? I repeat my self: Pre-orders could get refunds if they wanted. Crowdfunded IGG Perks were lucky we got anything at all !!! SURE I t

Thanks, edited 🙂

Now let us get things straight.... Those that pre-ordered from FxTec could cancel until the unit was actually sent. (and in some countries even have the rights to regret and send it back within some timeframe typically a fortnight) If they cho(o)se not, it was/is their own choice!!! Those of us that took the risk of crowdfunding taking a Perk on IGG for one should (as @Hook pointed out above) actually fell lucky that they just did not fold, and told us our money were lost, but are sending something pretty close to what we hoped for hardware wise. Remember that the alternative is no

Oh they are very keen on helping BUT it is a small team, so just after release, the risk of a long queue is high, so I hope some more knowing users than me can come up with a clever workaround. As the backup image is said to be only 32Mb it should be fairly easy to compare binary from two retail specimens (unless they are encrypted somehow). If identical between devices we can just share. If there is some serial like information in it, we will have to find out what shall be written, and then anyone (e.g. I) could make a small tool that can set the specimen specific info before restoring....
