Also remember that FxTec sees a larger part than the display it self as one spare part, so it might be other components they are missing for those.

One thing to be aware of when choosing a shell, is that it should not be too stiff, as the pro1 is not completely flat. I bought a few stiff ones also, but found that they did not fit.

Indeed, this works fine. Personally I recommend attaching this so it opens like a Japanese book, as the flip part is thus not interfering with the keyboard usage. Plus it protects the buttons and fingerprint reader when closed. See e.g. earlier in this thread. But it is a matter of taste. As a 'westerner' it feels odd opening it like a Manga.

The hall sensor for open/close is at the other side (between the usb-port and camera button) The other sensor has no real effect by default (sends a key comb) but with @Slion 's toolpack it can turn screen off with a flipcase with strategically placed magnet.

As far as I know this is not a switch. My guess is that it is a spring dampening the close.

Show this at 100% (Portrait, USB down), and the magnet for the open&close detection is below the arrow about a third down between the display bottom and device bottom. (And thus obviously the hall sensor beneath it in the lower part when closed)

Indeed, see this comment&thread. But as it stopped working after a drop, the chance that it is software related is minuscule. So the normal actions are expected to work with a fake triggering. See also sketch here on placement

My GUESS would be that either the hall sensor (in the bottom half) or the magnet (in the top) triggering it has been shaken loose, and is now out of place. The sensor is near the camera button about 12mm closer to the keyboard, and roughly 5mm in from the USB edge If the sensor is in place, it does not have to be a powerful magnet to trigger it. An ordinary screwdriver magnetised in the right direction can do the trick, You can check the position of the magnet with a nail, screw or the like, to see where it can hang when the slider is open. it should be about 5 respectively 12mm fro

Had they added those as options on IGG, I would almost certainly have bought some. I expect the pro1(x) might have to live very long, before we see a new keyboard phone to replace it, so would like to have plenty of spares, of the parts I expect to have a (relatively) short lifespan.

Update to November 17, with November 5 security patch using OTA went slowly but smoothly. Known keyboard bug still there (see lineage thread)

Have not tried it, but most likely not.

On HDMI, I just tested with this one, that was in my mailbox this morning, And it works portrait and landscape, for ALL of Aicp-R, LineageOS 18.1 and Stock Pie. (and my laptop too. Bought it to get a travel usb-hub with Rj45 ethernet) It is from China and on the package the model number is "BYL-2007", and the bar-code "6 957107 320057", and can most likely be found in many other places. e.g. here (Android in landscape looks quite extreme on a 43" monitor BTW 😂 )

Haven't tried the hdmi stuff for ages. do not even know where the usb-adapter I bought is.... But if I find it I will test...

(And for the few not reading Dutch, this is "United Kingdom")

let us hope they find some ingenious way with a top layer that is hard all over, except at the fold, so 'only' the fold-area requires extreme caution.

My guess would be something mechanical too. Since related to the pocket. Either a cable, or perhaps a superthin crack-line of a print plate. You could try some (gentle) flexing of the botom and top parts and see if you can trigger it. And perhaps revive when the issue is there.

I can definately see the benefits of samsungs folded variants versus a tablet or ordinary slab. And clearly using half for a fake keyboard is likely to work much better with android than a fake keyboard on a slab. But that said I see two drawbacks. Primarily that it isn't a keyboard with real keys, and secondary that the surface will be prone for scratches, as we can not have both hard and bendable with currently known materials. So I see it as the optimal device for those that do some typing and still also want a large screen for other stuff. But not ideal for those that do a lot of

I just tried on mine (AICP without Magisk), I get no fix at all so something is broken indeed. I'm a little unsure if it was on Lineage or AICP I had it working before (seldom have location on). But I THINK it has been working on AICP-R for me earlier....

Ah so you got a rather recent LOS (the earliest 18.1 release is from around May, if I remember correctly). Please click Settings ► About phone ► Android Version. The line LineageOS version would then have a stamp like 18.1.20211108-NIGHTLY.pro1, that should give the date. So they will know the bug is newer than your date. 🙂

Thanks. I'm unfortunately to lazy to start flashing old versions to see when it was introduced. *LOL* What are you running? 16.x , 17.x or just an older 18.x ?

Two (other) ways to force an sms to an mms: 1) Use e.g Textra, and select that sms, that would split in more than one SMS, is send as MMS, and make sure the text is more than 160 characters long (or about 80 including at the least one not simple unicode char) 2) add any email as a secondary recipient apart from the real number. (Please note that for some carriers MMS is sent at a higher costs than SMS)

PS A tiny tiny bug on the lock-screen in landscape (Both Lineage and AICP) BTW it might have been there 'always', since the lock icon was added, as the position of the clock in landscape/portrait is the same for stock android.
