    I have no idea what to make of this situation. I don't think it's a scam. That is, I am pretty sure it really was FxTec (Francisco, bot or not) asking for my money and I'm pretty sure the Paypal invoice was really from them, and assume the same with yours. So, to my mind, that makes the most likely scenario that they somehow gave you the wrong tracking number (more likely, I think, than they sent your package to someone in GB, though we can't rule that out). Nowhere does FedEx indicate that you ever figured into this shipment. It may even be that your battery hasn't actually been shipped at

    Certainly allowed, but skeptical we will get much out of it. There are just too few of us regularly on this forum.

    This has real possibilities. The question is, will this generate enough interest in any big companies that can do the R&D to take it out of prototype.

    For the life of me I can't figure out how to trigger 3rd and fourth layer symbols. I've tried holding separately and in various combinations Alt GR, Ctrl, Alt, Fn and shift. Lol. It is likely user error, but clearly I'm missing something or my tablet is incompatible in some way.

    Oh yes, I don't know why it didn't work the first time I tried with my Thinkpad X230 running Manjaro. Works fine now. What was weird, though, and possibly a coincidence, is that I lost my sound feedback when I connected to Linux, When I repaired with my Windows Thinkpad, the sound was still gone. I had to reinstall your app to get the sound back. Have no idea what happened there. Will run more tests to see a)if it keeps happening. b) is it my tablet doing something funny and not your app (likely) c)if there is any pattern. Made me realize how important BOTH the sound and vibration f

    I'm glad you are happy with the script, but it sounds like you were, in fact, not successfully rooted with Magisk.

    On Lineage 20, it's a lot easier. Having flashed the Magisk zip in recovery to give me SU when I first set up Lineage, I open Root Explorer and grant it Superuser privileges, mount root as r/w, go to System/vendor/etc/gps.conf. Tapping the file opens it in a text editor, I added #test at the top of the file and saved. Remounted root as r/o and bob's your uncle, as far as I can tell. No reason it shouldn't work if you rooted stock, but I never tried so can't say for sure.

    I've been fiddling with this off and on and it is really pretty nice. Surprisingly nice. The haptics are one key to this-- they really help a touch screen keyboard, the vibration standing in for feedback, so the more a tablet has good vibration the better. It helps to go into accessibility settings on my tablet and change "touch and hold delay" from the default "short" to "long." This reduces keys being accidentally typed just because your fingers are not quite steady passing over them. I have been mostly using the US QWERTY. I looked quickly at US International, but I have to figure

    Lineage update 20230427 installed via OTA updater. All went smoothly, April 2023 security patch, Root maintained with no additional action on my part. Still boots when plugged in while off, but wasn't expecting that to be fixed yet. All is well!

    Woo Hoo. Got my invoice and paid it!

    Interesting workaround while waiting for a new display. Thanks. I didn't know about that one.
  12. Hook
    As you can see above, I got my quote and sent in my address so I could get an invoice (they needed the address to figure in shipping on the invoice) on April 5th and silence ever since. @Casey Come on, guys, I'm trying to give you money! 😅 Ticket #10917

    It just happens. You didn't do anything. Since you are out of warranty, you can order an AlieExpress Elephone U Pro screen (Just the screen, the frame is different). If you are still running stock Android 9, you'll just have to remove the old display from the frame and attach the new one and connect the cable. Or you can have a shop do it for you.

    Is it on stock Android now? Or are you on some other OS and need to flash back to stock? Flashing stock will not lock the bootloader, but you have to be on stock to lock the bootloader, The instructions are here:

    What is the output of ADB devices? Also, try, in recovery, selecting "Advanced" and tapping the option "Enable ADB". I've had to do that rarely when doing sideloads. In general, Windows is fussy with both Fastboot and ADB, I've actually stopped using Windows for any of this (although I'm a Windows user). When I took an old outdated Thinkpad and installed Manjaro Linux on it, it worked right out of the box and every time. It came with Fastboot and ADB already installed annd you could use them from any folder because Linux knew where they were. Not saying that's your solution-- j

    They are fastboot commands you issue when you reboot to the bootloader. The commands are: The second one is the actual counter-command. I believe the first one is supposed to enable showing the initial battery animation showing what percentage you are starting out with.

    I've reported this on the Lineage Gitlab, always hoping the bot is done chastising me for using the same format as in their example. 😄

    I was addressing where touching the figerprint sensor (which was never set up) causes things to happen. I've never had problems with touch screen that can't be explained by old man fingers. 😄
  21. Hook
    I downloaded Mixexplorer, and it does indeed happen. I started testing my most common apps and it happened with three other apps I already have, except it wasn't (or, at least, not just) a screen refresh, but it launched dialogs. This happened with DejaOffice, Total Commander and Textmaker 2021. I tested and it does NOT happen with these same apps on my Pro 1. How very bizarre. I never ran into it because I never use my Pro1x in portrait. Not that easy to set this off in landscape. Why is the fingerprint sensor sensing anything if it hasn't been set up, and what are these progr

    Got to 99% (was more like 40 minutes, I got distracted). So it is working on the Pro1 with LOS 20 (charging without booting), just weirdly.
  23. Hook
    I'm not reading voltages, but I ran my Pro 1 down to 75%, plugged it in and, again, get initial logos, but the blank screen and no led on, checked 30 minutes or so later (not sure, forgot to time) and it was at 91% when I booted up. I've turned it back off and plugged it in again and will see where it is in another half hour. Bizarre that led doesn't light up for charging. This is, to be clear, plugged into wall with official FxTec charger (although, to be honest, I no longer know which came with the Pro 1 and which with the Pro1x, but, like the box, I don't believer there is any differ
  24. Hook
    I don't use or even install Chrome and I have never seen this behavior in any apps I have on either my Pro 1 or Pro1x.
  25. Hook
    You are right. I hadn't noticed since I almost never turn my phones off or charge them in that state, nor do I let my phones fall below 50% without topping off. This also means I haven't tested my Pro 1 in a long time. I get something stranger there. If I turn the Pro1 off, and plug in the charger, it doesn't boot, but doesn't do anything. I don't get the initial battery animation and no light goes on. I don't know if it is charging or not. I'll have to let it run down a bit and then leave it for a while and see what happens (it boots up fine). Maybe this has been covered in LO
