Oh indeed. What we do not know is how much the swindle affected their plans for the original Pro1. Optimistically it could merely be a matter of prioritising getting the Pro1X ready and out on the streets first.

Thanks. Not to be sarcastic, but I do wonder what they mean by "support" when it has been almost nine months without bugfixes, and the security updates are over a year behind... But I guess I'm just impatient.

I'm in the same boat. Given up hope for an update, and will be pleasantly surprised if it arrives after all.

Here in Europe we see "€741.00 free shipping" for pre-orders. The IGG Perk is $721+40 or roughly €630 including shipping Neither mentions customs, so expect that to be added outside the UK.

You can (inside the Android market app) select to have apps - including their own ones - autoupdated. And you actually need to remember to explicitly turn this OFF if you do not want them to constantly wasting battery and bandwidth for checking for new versions. Just like on stock. (Note that they choose to ignore your selection, turning it back on, when you install on a new device with same G-account BTW)

I just inserted a marker pen from the left, to keep the halves apart.

(He he.... the point is that the Sailfish variant has cut outs to do side-swipes)

The last year with the Corona mess it has been the standard here in Denmark that we were NOT allowed to sign for parcels, not limited to one courier. (Though I was requested to sign for a tonne of wood I got a few days ago, but that was -obviously- not by one of the usual parcel services)

When getting parcels from Germany, I have seen similar, that the German and Danish version of tracking disagrees, and also that the sending site has it marked as delivered before it actually is. I once contacted the courier and they contacted the Danish branch and removed the delivered entry - but when the parcel arrived some hours later, they did not get it back in... so things are only partly automated, with stange bugs as a result.

With emphasize on "sent". What matters is if it is "delivered". But things gets muddy with Brexit if neither the sender nor the recipient are willing to pay the 'fees' added by the courier. BUT if that was the case at the least FxTec should get the info that the packet is on hold at the pirates courier until someone pay the ransom 'fees'. And I have NO idea which part is legally obliged to pay this ransom on the return of a repair sent in before brexit and returned to EU after.

Oh I got it wrong too. And yes indeed as FxTec chose the method of sending it back to @DieBruine it must be them that has to take the struggle with the courier, and must prove that either the device was delivered or compensate with a device or money. (whether FxTec can reimburse a compensation from the courier is their own fight)

I unfortunately do not have any miracle solution. BUT as something went wrong with a flashing I would still suspect the connection. double check that no 'pocket lint' have sneaked in, for all connections, and possibly try a different cord, port or PC. If you do have access to alternatives, try connecting any different USB-C phone, and try to transfer a large amount of data (e.g. images & videos) in both directions and double check that they transferred correctly.

Unless you are very much in a hurry to immediately get any new updates on release (last was August 2020), then I would suggest to disable the two System Apps both called "Wireless Update", and when you get information on a new update you want to apply, you can just re-enable them. it is com.adups.fota and com.adups.privacypolicy Do both a disable AND a stop (!) as described here ADB shell pm disable-user com.adups.fota ADB shell am force-stop com.adups.fota ADB shell pm disable-user com.adups.privacypolicy ADB shell am force-stop com.adups.privacypolicy (You can stop them fro

...and with MindTheGapps installed an even huger Pay-tile is added, and you can not even remove it, it seems...🤮 And yes much like Win8 replace a usefull menu with ugly and impractical tiles.

Plus updates and comments on IGG

Well "still" is perhaps not the right word.. Not all has been delivered yet, and due to FxTec being swindled they have had to switch to a different CPU among other things (see other threads), so deliveries according to plans starts again in August.

Yes sorry, that was what I meant, corrected post.

Yes they (Google) done a wondeful job messing that one up!!! Though Aeroplane mode can be handled through notification bar pull down when not locked.

Well hard for us to guess the frequency, but as this and similar threads are not flooded with hundreds of differnt users reporting the problem, it could hardly be called 'general', but there could be some design of something that is vulnerable. E.g. A cable bend. It could also be a torsion-issue. If the display is sensitive to torsion (twist or bend). A Elephone U as a candybar is likely to be mor rigid than the thin display part of the Pro1. I saw @ToniCipriani reported it working fine with the display loose not mounted on the frame. IF the frame is twisted/bend a bit it could affec

Oh what a mess! When DPD claims they delivered the parcel to FxTec, and FxTec claims the never got it. It should be DPD that has to provide a receipt from FxTec on them recieving the parcel. If DPD are not able to produce that, it should be their responsibility. If they can produce a receipt then it is FxTec that has the problem.

Has anyone tried to search if the Elephone U / U-Pro expiriences the same problem? If it does, the issue most likely is in the display unit, if not, we can likely free that, and it must be due to Pro1-specifics (connector, pcb, cable bend....),
