    LineageOS 23.x Official Release for Pro1-X (QX1050)

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Lineage-23.0-20251013-NIGHTLY-pro1x with October 1st security patch installed smoothly using the Lineage upgrade procedure linked in the OP. It was installed with MindtheGapps 16 and Magisk 29 installed as a zip for SU only.  all data was preserved in the upgrade. I did have to open the Magisk app to let it run an update, but root was established. All went according to plan and everything seems to be working so far.

    I don't have any objective way of testing this, but I noticed that the change log for the last update and this one included references to carrier stuff.  It seems to me that my phone call clarity has improved. The phone stuff actually worked pretty good for me from the get go.  It wasn't perfect but far better than many people were reporting.  But it seems, though anecdotal, that it has improved.  Unfortunately, I don't really use this phone as a phone, as ironic as that it is for one that mostly works. So I haven't tried in a very long time, which makes this anecdotal report even more suspicious. 😉

    But Airplane mode is no solution for me, because I am using the Pro1 not only as little computer, but also as a mobile phone.

    Just to be clear, I wasn't suggesting not using a Pro 1 as a phone should be a solution for anyone. However, my defect led me to a diagnosis of the possible problem with Airplane Mode being a test. 🙂 I'm just lucky my problem doesn't affect me much because I happen to be weird.

    You are saying your Pro1 ceased to work as a phone. This is no minor regression for such a device.

    Except that, after maybe the first half of 2020, I have never used it as a phone.  Same with my Pro1x although, in fact, my Pro1x actually works pretty well as a phone.  They are pocket computers for me. I'm retired and don't do a lot of phoning, Mostly the phoning I do is related to my home health care of Mrs. Hook and I use a Pixel 7 Pro on Verizon for that as I need great coverage and reliability for that.  🙂 Other than that, I don't even give most people my phone number. I prefer asynchronous communication.

    The aeroplane mode could be worth a try. I might do it, but it will take a bit as I need to first assure that the problem is still there in normal mode. If I recall correctly I tested with mobile data OFF, so an interesting theory if it is related to the ability to make and receive calls.
    @Hookcan you use mobile data for say browsing on yours, or is that broken too?
    I understand SMS works. Does MMS?
    Just to try to narrow down the parts that does NOT work on yours, as the bug must be related to one of those.
    PS Note that my provider does NOT offer voice over LTE for this phone model (one of the silly carriers offering on whitelisted devices only)
    (I did try with two different carriers here)

    Yes, I am able to browse (wifi turned off-- it is actually quite fast) and I was able to take a picture and then text it to my Pixel.  The only thing not working at all are calls. It thinks it is calling, says it is calling, but there is no audio feedback for dialing or ringing. The phone part is dead. Don't know why. But, my battery drain is fine, wifi on or off.

    I still like the theory, suggested by @EskeRahn, that it is related to cell connectivity, and I don't think it matters much what the network preference is.  I don't have the battery drain issue with Lineage 22.2 on my Pro 1, but my Pro1 can no longer make or receive calls. It has a SIM, knows it has a SIM and is fine with texting and data, but can't call. If I put in another SIM, the same thing happens.  I guess a test might be for someone to put the phone in airplane mode (you can turn on wifi, but leave the cell connectivity in airplane mode). Maybe my lack of cell connectivity (and I mean total lack, not just weak signal that tries to work) and lack of fast battery drain is a coincidence, but I can't find any other suspect for why my results are different.
