I also couldn't get it to work and gave up. Same timeout errors as you. I just rooted the phone with Magisk and used the following command to backup all the partitions to the sdcard: mkdir /sdcard/backup cd /dev/block/platform/soc/*/by-name for filename in *; do if [ "$filename" != "userdata" ]; then echo "dd if=$filename of=/sdcard/backup/$filename.dd"; fi; done This prints lines with the dd syntax to back up all partitions. It does not execute them for you. Please check if those lines fit your expectations first and then run one or all of them. I then got the backups off the

I would be happy with an unofficial release so I can finally start using the phone that is useless (to me) since it arrived in august...

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
dicer replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Same here. Maybe we should make a (pinned) thread in this forum were people copy the news messages into? Then we can have notifications again. I don't want to follow this topic -
Maybe some clarification on the whole supported/unsupported part in the LAOS channel: "Supported" means that a phone is officially released by the LAOS project and deemed fully working. Since this is obviously not the case yet, the pro1x is still "unsupported". Doesn't mean no one is working on it. I have no idea *if* someone is working on it, but that message is not prove that no one is working on it. Just wanted to clarify this, based on observations on how lineageos works/communicates (and cyanogenmod before them)

LineageOS 19.1 Official Release for Pro1
dicer replied to wapsi's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Yeah, Sean wrote something back in April: But neither github nor gerrit show any public pro1x projects or reviews. Nor is there any firmware at TheMuppets. That's why I'm asking. Maybe @Sean McCrearycan point me in the right direction? -
LineageOS 19.1 Official Release for Pro1
dicer replied to wapsi's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Any LineageOS devs reading here as well? I build LAOS myself (with very few modifications) and I would like to get started. Is there any way to get early access to the current work in progress Pro1X version? I'm happy to help with testing once my Pro1X arrives next week -
Pro1, Ghost touches and other digitizer and display issues
dicer replied to michal@hanu.la's topic in Support
My phone (December 2019) now also displays the ghost touch problems 😞 1.5 months out of warranty... My line is a little over the middle of the display when in portrait mode. So not exactly as shown in the videos above, but same problem. For me it also gets better when touching the screen at the bottom. No need to squeeze. Just touching the lowest part/row of the screen seems to make it better. Unfortunately only for a few seconds... I guess I'll get a replacement screen from Ali. Why couldn't this wait "a little" longer until the Pro1x arrives... I just noticed though that the s -
You should see if your provider offers wifi calling. I'm in the same situation: network is not very strong and most people were complaining about audio quality on calls. Lots of static and generally poor quality they said. It was so bad that I got a second SIM card and a second phone just to make phone calls. Same places as before, which also does not speak for the reception qualities of the Pro1, which constantly dropped calls. By now I activated wifi calling and the situation is nearly perfect. At least if you have a stable wifi connection.
-
I also seem to have this problem. Plus random times I can't seem to be able to focus at all. A reboot fixes the latter though. @Jordi Did you test this on stock? I am beginning to think this might be a hardware fault.

I just had the case again where the physical keyboard does not react to any key presses anymore. This happens every couple of weeks (more or less) and it basically means I can't type anything anymore. Touchscreen and the OS keep working fine, but nothing from the keyboard. Usually I notice when I get the phone out of my pocket and it doesn't react anymore, but this time it was the first time it happened to me while I was typing. No idea what I hit, but it just stopped working. So I went to my computer and took a adb logcat. I'm not posting the full log here cause it is way to chatty
-
Yeah, same here: Usually I can type fine, but more or less every other sentence has a dropped character. Sometimes I get a lot of chars that I didn't press, but this is usually over pretty quickly and not that often. So I can not say that I'm super annoyed by this, but it is distracting at times. I am able to type without looking at the keys by now, so its not too bad. So yes, I see this, but this would never make me switch back to stock 😉 I have fast polling enabled and no hangouts installed.
-
I got this too: When I boot, Lineage is not asking for the SIM pin (only one SIM installed) and I can start using the phone. SIM is still locked though and of course no internet/calls. If I then turn off the screen and turn it back on, the PIN entry is shown.
-
Did the same as @DieBruineand can also confirm that VoLTE works for me. I'm on o2 Germany. Wifi calling also works. Both on lineage. No icons are being displayed for either though. There is a Lineage pull request that is adding those icons: https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_frameworks_base/+/279554

Rear/main camera focus to infinity not work on LineageOS
dicer replied to fxtec-preorder-47xx's topic in Support
I usually can take pictures just fine but sometimes the autofocus doesn't work for me either. Then it only focuses on very nearby things. Not sure what causes this nor what fixes it. It is usually gone when I try to use the camera the next time. Maybe rebooting helps? I'll try that next time I notice. -
There is a pull request for 17.1 support, but I haven't checked yet whether it works.

I am also building it myself. It is quite easy actually with the docker container: https://gist.github.com/dicer/3543ef27cbee845c0cbba9cf3f15242a You just need a lot of RAM (I think 16GB?) and disk space (>100GB). You won't get OTAs though. You will have to rebuild yourself once in a while Regarding the boot image: You can just use the one from TDMs website as far as I know. There is also a way to extract them from the generated zip files but I forgot how, since you only need to do that once as a base. You install the boot image in slot A, boot to its recovery and install you
-
Both options would be great to get started! Option 1 of course only works if @Waxberry is ok with me publishing the resulting fastboot images. In the end it is all about getting further updates though. I'm thinking of writing a script which will ask the official OTA server for updates and download these. Of course this only works if there are no deltas being used. Then again the firmware partition updates might not be sent as deltas even if the system is. I'll have to look into this. I'll look into the backup stuff soon and try to find a way

Over at the factory restore tool thread, tdm said: Cool! This means I could "restore" my phone with the restore tool, extract all the necessary firmware partitions and make them available for manual flashing via fastboot. So one step closer to figuring out how to get some images for flashing ready. Currently I don't have a proper way of making a full backup of my phone though. By proper I mean something like a nandroid/full data partition backup. I did some backups with adb, but I don't really trust it. I used to do this with TWRP on my old phones. There is a TWRP, but withou
-
Does this contain updated (modem) firmware partitions? I very early on switched from stock to Lineage so I didn`t get any OTAs for stock. I assume they did contain some updates to the firmware for modem, bluetooth etc? So does it make sense to flash this to update those partitions? Also see
-
For me it is sticky for one character after pressing shift. I think this is perfect for reaching the character you want and it should stay like that. That's also how it has been with LineageOS on the Droid4
-
After building the latest version with your VZW fixes, it seems to have enabled wifi calling for my German SIM card (o2) as well! At least the settings menu all of a sudden suggested to enable it. I'm pretty sure it wasn't there before as I was looking for it. Can't test it yet, cause AFWall+ seems to block it... Anyone knows which system process is responsible for the wifi calling?
-
Yeah, my droid4 often has UMTS reception where the pro1 is stuck on Edge. LTE is spotty around here and the droid4 does not have LTE. It is not too bad though. What is bad is the audio quality when making calls. A lot of people complain about a lot of static on voice calls. I can hear them fine but they can't make out much of what I'm saying. This happens on GSM calls and I'm on the latest LineageOS version. Anyone else experiencing this or is it a hardware issue with just my phone?
-
Would be great to have a way for people on Lineageos (or on another 3rd party OS) to track stock OTAs as they might contain firmware updates with security fixes etc. Fairphone does that quite nicely on their code.fairphone.com website. You can just download the latest version and the zip contains all the relevant updates to the firmware partitions (even with a .sh file giving you an idea how to flash them with fastboot). Maybe this would be possible for the Pro1 as well @Waxberry? I think @tdm mentioned somewhere that he wanted to package firmware for updating as well. I would g

Sequence of order processing + issues with orders
dicer replied to Doktor Oswaldo's topic in Support
I also had my main card rejected. I entered it twice, but it was declined twice. My third attempt was with my spare visa card and that one went through. I just hope that the first two attempts did not result in charges as with @david -
Keyboard print layouts and functionality
dicer replied to caymen's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
I only accidentally use the shortcuts on the droid4. I would like to have symbols etc to be accessed easily. So I'd always take another symbol key over a shortcut.
