Glass Screen Protector for Pro1/Pro1X
EskeRahn replied to lawliett's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
I believe it was for the S8+ I tried (if I remember right), the S8 is too slim. But anyway they are too elongated, and need to be cut (i was unable to do that with the tools I got, but perhaps a plasma cutter or something like that could do the trick. -

Glass Screen Protector for Pro1/Pro1X
EskeRahn replied to lawliett's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
The protectors for the Elephone U all works perfect as it is (literally) the same BOE-display on both. BUT currently we can only get the real tempered glass ones FLAT (not full coverage), or the elastic type curved - you can get both types for trifles on e.g. AliExpress - I bought a stack, and they work just fine. -
Glass Screen Protector for Pro1/Pro1X
EskeRahn replied to lawliett's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
They DO exist for BB-Priv, so could be made for the Pro1 & Elephone U also. They are not that hard to make when the screen only curves parallel to the long edges of the device. -
Yes I also tried rather hard to dig. We just might be in a situation where it is a standard battery, but the tiny print/cabling is different After a lot of digging I did find the similar size (at the least it seemed, haven't got the exact measurements). But the cable looked wrong. There are some numbers on the FCC-images, but was unable to find them.

Hmm, I was sure it was the entire top part, but I might have misunderstood that.. Can any of those that got a "screen" for self replacement help clarifying here?

That makes sense, as the user then through the purchase of the device already paid license fee for exFat. -
@Doktor Oswaldo I can not thank you enough for a well balanced post! I totally agree on all points. I think that much of the commotion arises out of people not being able to distinguish between making a pre-order and taking a crowd-funding perk. Foreigners like me could start by usign a dictionary: Perk Though IGG tries to scream out in large letters that perks aren't pre-orders, unfortunately the campaigns I've seen (including this one) are formulated in such an optimistic way as if it was a sure thing that we will end where they hope we will, and that we will get exactly what
-
And this is exactly the same thing here.... we put in some money and HOPE to get a higher value out. At the same time this campaign was running last year you could also preorder a Pro1 on the FxTec webpage. And the Preorder price was HIGHER, exactly because they here make a legal promise to deliver, and if they can not fulfil a preorder you will normally have a right to a refund, so they take all the risk. The whole POINT of crowdfunding is that we as investors take (some of) the risk, and in return we hope to end up with a device cheaper than what the preorder price was. That

That would be pretty absurd. Why would we even have the term "crowd funding" if it should just be considered a "pre-order"? The whole point is that WE as investors take the risk rather than those that tries to create the product... And that is why the price for a perk is lower than a pre_order price. (despite IGG also taking their not unsubstantial cut) For the rest I to a large degree agree. Though it can be hard for us to tell how fast they would have been able to update the campaign with something sensible not just causing a panic. Information in fine but can cause all kind of rumours an

Could it be because it is the same security build? Will be interesting to hear if OTA also works when it get the next security bump. -
Back in the original Lineage t6 test-thread @tdm did add a link were we can support his great work for the Pro1
-
And the interesting words here are "goods" and "purchase", as we with crowdfunding do not purchase a defined product. So we would be talking the quality of the investment in potentially hoping to get a specified product as being the product. And that will be (even) harder to evaluate and thus also to dispute being "as promised". Note also that there aren't a fifth bullet for regret of investments or gifts, so this is clearly intended to handle purchasing defined products. So a pre-order of a product would be included, but not investments including crowdfunded perks for a product.

I was about to make an answer to this, when I saw that @Doktor Oswaldo did one in a much nicer tone than I was about to use. https://community.fxtec.com/topic/3292-pro1-and-pro1-x-design-change-to-use-snapdragon-662-no-new-devices-before-august-2021/page/6/?tab=comments#comment-56647

I really wish someone would try making something similar to the below flip case in one piece of elastic transparent material. I guess the tough part would be to get the tiny magnets inside the construction (they can be bought for trifles on e.g. ebay BTW)
