  1. I think you are talking about Pro1 spare parts. Those they have in stock or not in the UK and can send them directly. I also got a screen assembly and battery for my Pro1. The OP is referring to the Pro1x spare parts (enthusiast bundle).
  2. @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.
  3. lineage-20.0-20230629-nightly-pro1x-signed.zip with June 5th security patch installed smoothly via OTA. I have MindTheGapps13, and root was maintained.
  4. 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.
  5. 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, ๐Ÿ˜‰
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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
  9. 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 ๐Ÿ˜„ ). 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.
  10. lineage-20.0-20230622-nightly-pro1x-signed.zip with June 5th security patch installed smoothly via OTA. I have MindTheGapps13, and root was maintained.
  11. 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
  12. 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. ๐Ÿ˜‰ 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
  13. 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.
  14. 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..
  15. 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.
  16. 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?
  17. 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.
  18. 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. ๐Ÿ˜‰
  19. 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.
  20. Doh! So was mine. A typo, sorry. Corrected now. Less dependence of the FN key for normal use, adds some number of third layer characters depending of which keymap you use. The term "Keyboard mapper" implies that Finqwerty is doing something actively. It isn't. It merely supplies additional key maps that it makes visible to Android. https://android.onse.fi/finqwerty/#pro1x
  21. Then, no, I'm not old. Just ask Mrs. Hook ๐Ÿ˜„
  22. No, no documentation, but to be honest, I don't think there are many. Stock Android 11 on the Pro1x actually is pretty nice and runs very smoothly. If you add Finqwerty (particularly the corrected one Rob S made available), it's really nice keyboard experience. LOS doesn't fix many things... if you are having problems with LTE and cell signal in stock, you will probably still have them in LOS. You get some additional features, you get a great reduction in bloat if you don't use a lot of google apps, the keyboard mapping works fine without Finqwerty, and you get up-to-date Android secur
  23. When you email them, the zendesk autoresponder will will assign you a ticket ID.
  24. I'm 70. Does that count as old? ๐Ÿ˜‰
  25. Not sure, but it is true for the Pro1 and Pro1x. It will brick the device. I've never tried to relock a bootloader on any previous device, so I don't know. Had Dirty Unicorns on my Nexus 5. I miss that phone. ๐Ÿ˜‰
