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.

Your points are well-taken, even in your first post. I don't know what has been happening. I suspect they don't have a lot of money to play with, which might be why they couldn't hang onto that in-house person. I guess I just appreciate their doggedness to get us hardware in our hands that then may be able to become what we want. They crowdfunded a phone they had already designed and built with only more memory and Lineage and UT ready to go. Suddenly, they lost the SOC they had paid for and found themselves having to design a new phone in a pandemic remotely in China. I don't know m

I think this really does misrepresent what they said. They said the alternative OSs are community run projects by volunteers and progress depends on their time (true), but that they are working closely with those volunteers to provide as much support as possible. There was no comment about ask the devs. Only the continuing "if you have questions ask at fxtec." I do understand the frustration. Must be even greater for those who, who unlike you and me, are waiting without a Pro 1 in their hands. And, honestly, I bet FxTec are pretty frustrated too. I don't know the reason, but FxT

Interesting, because I have almost never seen the problem on my Pro 1, and I have been using magnetic connectors since forever. Mine can do data as well as charge.

Seems simple enough to just use this link to check rather than asking someone else to maintain an update thread: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pro1-x-smartphone-functionality-choice-control/x/17980121#/updates/all

I am an IGG supporter and I don't get the emails anymore. I suspect something broke at IGG. Maybe IGG has a time limit on emails going out. I just go to IGG and check the updates while ignoring the comments. 😉

Glad it worked out. Recommend you fill in your device and OS version to appear under your user name. The instructions are pinned to the top of the forum. It really helps provide context for answering questions. :)
