They do list Band 41 on their website, but as UC 5G. https://www.t-mobile.com/support/coverage/t-mobile-network

I believe T-Mobile is now using Band 41 for 5G exclusively these days (I'm no expert, so I could be wrong). The Pro1x lists Band 41 in the specs, but I'm pretty sure it was Sprint back then so who knows what the Pro1x thinks it is doing when it encounters it. If you still have 5G in your preferred network type list, try picking a list that doesn't include it (I use LTE/TDSCDMA/CDMA/ExDo/GSM/WCDMA-- admittedly, most of those are useless too, but there is no reason to include NR which is 5G). My Pro1x here mostly stays on Band 4, occasionally Band 2.

I'll be taking my Pro1x, which works great as a phone where I am in the US, with me on a week long trip to Colorado. Will be very interested to see if anything changes. If T-Mobile in CO forces me to lower frequency bands, I would expect to have problems. Will be interesting,

LineageOS 20.0 Official Release for Pro1
Hook replied to CornholioGSM's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
I suspect that you kept missing the right sequencing, until you finally hit it in trying everything. The steps and order of those steps are important. The 25 cent version: After you fastboot flash boot.img and dtbo.img you then reboot into recovery. Next you factory reset to make sure userdata has been wiped. You then go into the advanced menu and enable adb. Then you go to applu update and apply for adb and issue the adb sideload command from your computer. When it has completely installed, reboot to recovery. You may then sideload Gapps or anything else. You MUST do this final r -
LineageOS 20.0 Official Release for Pro1x (QX1050)
Hook replied to Hook's topic in General Discussion
FinQwerty doesn't work on Lineage. I'm not sure why your semicolon doesn't work. What layout do you have selected under settings->System->Languages & input->Physical keyboardBuiltin Keyboard? I have 2 layouts selected that I can switch between using Fn-space bar: "F(x)Tec Qwerty" and "English (US)" Semi-colon works fine on both. "F(x)Tec Qwerty" gives you the keyboard map that matches the physical prints on the keyboard. With "English (US)" the layout changes so that I have few alterations that don't match the physical prints in a very few cases: "/-|" becomes "/-?"; "?-- 137 replies

@Casey would have to answer that question. For whatever reason, they made the decision (and posted it) that parts would follow after all the phones were shipped. I would speculate that part of it might be to not end up providing parts to people who don't have phones, so the emphasis was to try and get all the phones out. But none of us know.

Just a note. Even if there is not a lot of activity, the beta thread on Telegram is Official, as per the link you provided.

Pro1, Ghost touches and other digitizer and display issues
Hook replied to michal@hanu.la's topic in Support
I'm betting a very high proportion of the risk is accounted for by letting the phone snap open rather than guiding it with your fingers slowly so you don't get a loud clack. The clack is pleasing and fast, I understand, 😉 -
Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
The signals tab on the free version of LTE Discovery will show you what band you are on. Most of the time I am on Band 4, but lately have been switching sometimes to B2. Both are high frequency bands and work fine for LTE. This does not require root or paid version. -
I split this into a new thread to avoid confusion, @eorg The thread you posted this in is for the Official Lineage release for the Pro1x, but it is nonetheless worthwhile to have people post what they know about MicroG. Just important for people to know they are different.

The trouble with all of this is the differences in technique and the words we have to describe them. "Pushing Down" as I would interpret that instruction has never worked for me unless I am already slightly lifting the back, and pushing straight across (horizontal) has never worked for me unless I have slipped my fingernail under the front. In your illustration, you even show lifting, not just pushing horizontally. I learned to lift the back and push. It is simple, even allows you to control the clack depending on how much you use the fingers in back to guide it, and can be done one ha

This certainly isn't an easy phone to open one handed. I can do it, but usually don't for safety reasons (not wanting to accidentally drop phone 😄 ). The easiest method for opening the Pro1x (with two or one hand) in my opinion is to slightly lift the back the push the front with your thumb, letting the screen climb your fingers at the back. Nothing in your video looks like a problem. I don't think you have a defective Pro1x. But until you get used to it, it seems hard to do. I struggled for a week when I got my Pro1 back in 2019. Lol. Now it is so easy, I don't even think about it.

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
That's an interesting theory. There was a previous theory discussed that the phone isn't able to handle lower frequency bands very well, but it could be that lower frequency bands somehow kick off more band switching. Be nice if there was software that could show you what bands are available to your phone at the moment and allow you to select one (regardless of signal strength) and lock it in as the one for your phone to use. I think that would create better control for testing. I know that my phone, which works, stays locked onto the same high frequency band even though others are availabl -
Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Funny-- mine isn't. It's my daily driver. Neither are the ones two friends of mine have and are using. I'm curious if that's what you told whoever you sold your Pro1x to. 😉 This phone clearly works for some people. Also, clearly, it doesn't work for some. My two friends never go to this forum nor do they go to the Discord server or the TG channels. How many more are out there? We honestly don't know. It is not a good thing that it doesn't work for some people no matter what the numbers, but that doesn't warrant calling the Pro1x dead. So, I guess we will agree to -

Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
I think there are two really good things here. 1) They have gotten the devices moved out of Expansys' hands successfully. 2) They are finally not trying to make timeline guesses when in fact they don't know. They are just being straight and telling us they don't know, but giving us the update anyway. -
I don't use Swiftkey or WhatsApp, so I'm pretty useless here. I just don't remembering it happening to me on Stock because, yes, I would have found it very annoying..
-
Just out of curiosity, does it remain if you actually uninstall Swiftkey? If it's a lot of trouble to reinstall, may not be worth it to you, but that would be my next test.
-
That's the same one LOS has. Curious. I'm not sure why you are having the problem then, because I was pretty happy with Stock and that would have really bugged me. Are you by any chance using an alternative on-screen keyboard with it's own settings?
-
I'm unfortunately (for checking on this problem) on LOS 20. It has an explicit switch in the physical keyboard settings to turn off the onscreen keyboard when the physical keyboard is out. I don't remember if stock has that, but I also don't remember having that problem with stock, so I bet there's something that addresses that.
-
Except, I don't think he's on stock. Under his user name he lists LOS 20, but judging from the commands he posted and the thread this is posted in, I would say he's on Sailfish. 😉

You are talking about Pro1 parts. Different than Pro1x parts. They can't really sell Pro1x parts until they have shipped them to the backers that paid for them.
