I don't have a Pro1x, but I believe the process of updating Lineage is the same as for the Pro1 and I will answer your questions from that assumption. Your steps 1-5 are correct except that, after you do the adb sideload, you need to reboot to recovery. This is because the update (which is actually the full installation with the updates) is installed to the inactive slot. Rebooting to recovery makes the inactive slot active. Now when you do step 5, you will be actually booting up the update. A. There is no formal backup for either the Pro1 or Pro1x. No TWRP. You can backup your

@Caseymight want to make a note of this theory and see if they have any data or a way to look into it.

I don't have a Pro1x, and it has been so long since I had stock, I can't say for stock. But, yes, with Lineage OS on the Pro 1, you can do that. Under settings>display>rotation settings, you can actually allow or exclude all or any of 0, 90, 180 or 270 degrees. I don't use autorotate at all, just using the built in ability of the Pro1 to change from landscape to portrait by opening and closing the keyboard. In addition, there's a clever little lock-unlock icon that pops up that can be used in special cases. When I open Kindle, I leave the keyboard out and turn the screen so it is

This is like the AlieExpress merchant who figured out that the Elephone U Pro screen could be used for the F(x) Tec Pro 1 and relabeled the screen (and, then, in this case, jacked up the price-- you can get Elephone U Pro screens much cheaper on Alie Express). 😄 https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804530146022.html?gatewayAdapt=deu2usa4itemAdapt&_randl_shipto=US

Also, if all you want is root (SU) and you don't care about magisk modules, you can simply use the depreciated method of renaming the magisk file changing the .apk extension to .zip and then using adb sideload to flash it in recovery the same way you do MindTheGapps. I'm not sure you can't also still use Magisk modules that way, but since I don't use them, I can't say. I never even open the Magisk app, but it gives root to any app that asks permission and I say ok.

I'm a little confused by your descriptions. When you reboot to bootloader using adb, you should get the bootloader screen which is the same as your first screen shot way above except I think it says "START" in green at the top. I don't think it matters if you use the volume control to change what is at the top to "RECOVERY mode" because those are options you are scrolling through, but nothing changes unless you press power. That bootloader screen (with "START" or whatever at the top) is the bootloader. That is where fastboot is used. Going into recovery mode (by pressing the power button)

Whereas with Manjaro on a Thinkpad x230, fastboot has always worked for me. Didn't need to install anything, fastboot and ADB tools were already there.

As have others on Discord. Sean says it's "moderately stable" which is good enough for me. Probably not that different than the first unofficial test versions of Lineage 16 we got from TDM for the Pro1, and those were rock solid. As soon as I have a Pro1x, I'll be installing it.

Donate link worked fine for me using Pay Pal.

Don't set USB to file transfer. All you need is debugging on. Leave it on charge only.

It would probably help if you detailed where you got stuck. Windows is fussy with this, particularly which ports work or which cords work. Often people do better on Windows with USB2 ports (I used a hub for that). Although my main computer is windows I have Majaro Linux on an old Thinkpad and it just works. Fastboot and ADB were already set up in the default install, I now do all my flashing of Lineage there. However, I only have a Pro 1. I don't have my Pro1x yet.

This is basically what I use my 5G Moto phone on PAYG Verizon for with my Pro 1. Don't yet have my Pro1x to see how things work out with that. I'm hoping to make my Pro1X my daily driver while I experiment with the Pro 1 trying things I wouldn't with my daily driver. My Moto is my phone, car phone, hot spot.

I got it too. I don't think it is any different than what Amazon or AlieExpress does. You look at or buy something suddenly you get an email offering the thing you looked at or bought. 😉

Need a few more details here. Pay where? IGG? The FxTec Web Store? I believe that if you order from the Web Store, it will have the status "processing" until it is shipped (which will be awhile yet), if that's what you mean by "on hold." Otherwise, I'm not sure.

Well, yes, Verizon was a PITA, but it worked fine on AT&T (that was back when the techs at AT&T got excited when I showed them the Pro1). My main two problems were that without a headset, calls were almost as loud as a speaker phone so there was little privacy and the fact that for some reason it would not use the car speakers/microphone when connected to BT so I couldn't get hands free. I freely admit I had neither the technical knowledge nor the patience to see if I could work through to a solution to these two problems and these may have been corrected in later stock and/or Lineage

Well, TBH, the Pro1 wasn't a truly great phone, which is why I stopped trying to use it as one, and they made Lineage for it anyway. I suppose, from what people are saying, the Pro1x is worse (although whatever the problem, it wasn't picked up by the beta testers). I don't know since I don't have one. However, since I have no real plans to use my Pro1x as a phone, I really hope they push ahead with a version of Lineage for it and make phone/modem/whatever fixes later. Selfish, yes I know. ;-)

I'm not very technical, not a noob, but a knowledgable user willing to find and RTFM if I know where it is. Principly a Windows user, but am using Linux more and more (because I have two very knowledgeable and patient friends who use Linux professionally). I always found Windows to be very picky and inconsistent with flashing. Since switching to Manjaro Linux on a Thinkpad X230, I have had no problems. Didn't have to download anything. ADB and fastboot were already there and I can use them from any directory. It just works (note, I have only ever flashed Lineage so far). If a user l

They can be slow to answer. I think there are two main factors involved. 1. Is just simply that they are very few people wearing very many hats, and probably they are getting flooded with requests. Their system doesn't have any way to distinguish "I'm having technical difficulty" from "Where's my IGG perk." Everything goes to the same inbox. What is it you have emailed them about? If it is anything like "where is my IGG perk," their only answer is the latest update. 2. They have a tendency to not reply until the have an answer yet. If I have not heard from them for a mont

Yeah, not really impressed with it. For my money, Open Camera is best on the Pro1, although there are some good Gcam versions, I won't argue with that.

So, wow, this is even weirder than I thought it would be, but it isn't LOS 20 or the Pro1 itself, so that's a relief. What was going on, and it seemed to be new behavior coincident with installing LOS 20, was that when I connected my Pro1 to the USB 2.0 hub to charge, the lightning bolt would appear and then it would go off. So then I tries a 2.0 cable to the wall and it was okay. Then I tried to a USB 2.0 port on my Linux laptop and the same thing that happened with the hub, Lightning bolt came on, then went right off. That's when I remembered that the USB 2.0 hub is connected to my

I need to investigate further, but I am running into another charging issue with LOS 20. I never really had the issue people reported with LOS 19 which seemed to have gotten fixed towards the end. This seems a little different. What seems to be going on is that it charges too slowly from my USB 2 hub (which is how I have always charged my Pro 1, leaving it charging over night while I sleep. Yesterday, when I woke up it was at 74%. I rebooted and hooked it up and after several hours it actually climbed to 76%. I then hooked it up to the FxTex wall charger, it showed "Charging rapidly" and

There's already an update dated 02 Jan with only these two changes listed.... Changes included in lineage-20.0-20230102-nightly-pro1-signed.zip Aperture: Keep screen on while in CameraActivity android_packages_apps_Aperture Aperture: Ask for GPS permissions on first launch and enable if granted android_packages_apps_Aperture I'm installing it OTA just to do an OTA test. Probably just as well to wait for next week's update.

Installed smoothly using MindTheGapps 13, I expect no problems, but have the long rebuilding of my phone (I rebuild new versions from scratch-- probably a being retired thing 😄 )

I suspect @CornholioGSMknows a lot about this.
