  1. If a large number of people with different phones in NYC are having problems, it sounds like a system outage of some kind, not a Pro 1 problem. Either T-Mobile is working on infrastructure or there has been a breakdown in the local system. I would check with T-Mobile and see if they are aware of problems. This may pass, as annoying as any system downtime is. I know of no move by T-Mobile to whitelist phones like AT&T and Verizon. Another possibility is is T-Mobile in NYC is moving to use one of their newer bands (I think it's band 71, but that's off the top of my head) more. It's
  2. Really folks, the ignore function works really nicely with trolls. Also, feel free to not quote him when replying. Your comments need no reply context in this case. 😄
  3. By the way, I did buy one (which just got released by US customs after a paperwork snafu that doesn't usually happen in the US), but not for me. I talked two friends into buying a Pro1x. One received his in August and I just wanted to be sure my other friend would get his. I will wait for mine from FxTec and if they come through, I will end up with two Pro1xs because my friend will send me his if it arrives from FxTec. I did not buy one of these for myself. I still have faith in FxTec. I know they will come through if they can. And if they can't, it won't be because they were eit
  4. A couple of things. I don't think Expansys USA exists anymore. It may have been an off-shoot of the original operation, but not the exactly the same. Expansys in Asia has been pretty dependable over the years (I used them long ago and they have always been FxTec's shipping partner). Secondly, Fxtec has stated in Discord discussions that they will back the warranty on the Expansys sold models.
  5. Just wanted to point out that I never use a case and I had a severe ghost touch problem at the end of 2020. I only have a thin textured skin on the back for added grip.
  6. The automated system says that while awaiting input from the folks who pick, package and ship. There are no people available outside the hours of 8am-6pm M-F Hong Kong time. You will probably see this change somewhere around mid-day Monday HK time. People who ordered on Discord saw this, as did I. They received theirs. Mine is sitting in Memphis, TN right now because for some odd reason customs decided I must be an importer and I'm in a paperwork mess trying to convince them otherwise. I'm wondering if Expansys mislabeled. This one came straight from HK to Memphis, when usually the
  7. I don't use it often, but the forum ignore feature is nice. I can see a certain someone is generating a lot of posts, but I don't have to read them, having figured out that this person never posts anything new nor engages in discussion. 🙂
  8. As I stated above, Fxtec has alredy stated in Discord that the Expansys units will have full warranty from Fxec (which is one year for the Pro1x, not 2 years).
  9. Another, less ominous explanation,,, (though I hope Fxtec will let us know) is that Expansys had ordered some for themselves that were manufactured at the same time as batches 1 and 2. Those are not affected by problems in the shipping contract. Those went to Expansys Sales, and Expansys ships them for themselves, not Fxtec. Expansys may have remaindered them because of lowered specs, which looks bad but isn't crooked. They didn't have to pay for R&D. People on Discord have ordered and received. FxTec has acknowledged them and say they will be covered by FxTec for warranty.
  10. Still there. A little odd... you first actually have to launch the two apps you want to split. Then you have to go to the app switcher. I use the old navigation bar, so I just tap the square to get to the switcher. Then hold the icon over the first app you want on the split screen. It offers the option to "split left". Then it will ask you to pick the card for the second app. Just tap that apps card and the two apps will pop up in split screen. Used to be easier and more flexible, but I think that's probably Android 12.
  11. Thanks for hanging in there so long. Very disappointing, but Lineage 19 is okay, just underfeatured. 😉
  12. I wasn't judging or doubting you; merely stating that I was puzzled because my experience had been quite different.
  13. I am not questioning anything you are saying but I have had several customer service interactions with Francisco, including sending my Pro1 to London for repairs, and he has always been on topof things an extremely helpful. So, I am puzzled.
  14. I think you know this and just had it as an assumption, but the important thing is to type the response above the line indicated in the email or the help desk system may fail to parse it correctly.
  15. I suspect no one at AICP is using a Pro1 anymore and these are just automated updates with no actual updating being done.
  16. And I have been continuing to do OTA updates weekly, all successful, nothing breaks, but what the heck is that long delay as the updater prepares for first boot. It is literally hours now. Lol. Luckily I'm working on my laptop Monday mornings. 😄
  17. Yeah, much as I loved AICP, I'm just not going to trust and depend on it for those very reasons. Having only 1 pro1, I'm staying with Lineage 19 as my daily driver. Once I have my Pro1x, my Pro 1 will become my experimental device to try Droidian, Sailfish, no google Lineage, etc.
  18. The first question would be were you bin tbe past able to use the phone for long periods without this happening? Is this recent? If so, whatt have you added to or changed on the phone in recent history, I would look for the culprit there.
  19. Yes, I didn't get it from there, but that was essentially the same instructions. The question I don't know the answer to is whether Droidian is using Phosh (mobile version of Gnome, I believe). If so, that Phoc.ini file is what you want.
  20. I would check with FxTec to see if they have any understanding of what the problem might be. You can also find out if they can sell you a replacement screen and get it to you. It will be extra work, but you can get a replacement screen (without the frame, so you will have to remove the old display from the frame and attach the new one) for pretty cheap from AlieExpress. Here is a link that has been working lately (there are different shops and some may have them and some may not) : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/2251832770186063.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2jpn4itemAdapt I usually get
  21. This was happening to me on the PinePhone with Phosh. I found instructions for editing the Phoc.ini file to change the default number. I would imagine there is probably some similar ini file for Droidian, but don't know.
  22. Lineage 19 allows you to set a default camera app for a long press of the camera button. Mine is assigned to open camera. The short press does nothing.
  23. We can try @Casey, but chances are, you would need to contact them.
  24. I think so, but none of us know. I would contact FxTec and ask them.
