The 20200825 update is linked in the update of first post of this thread: Here is the direct link to the download: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lEc-ummPsamKDWHpoJP6YJcH6IYS4abe/view I don't know about the OTA service in the stock Android 9 ROM, but I believe it was set up (and the updates were handled by) a contractor that is (I believe) is no longer handling things for FxTec (another reason for no further updates). They have said the Pro1x updates will be handled by Google OTA, so the Pro1x should fare better. F(x) Tec has definitely not gone out of business. - 
	
	
				Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
The price in IGG is for a bundle that includes not only the Pro1X, but also a spare battery and a spare screen assembly (not just the screen, but the frame it is mounted in). You have to click to expand the perk box to see the list of what's included. -

Actually, I received the headphones also. 🙂 and no, I wasn't a moto mod backer (would have been if I had known before it was cancelled. - 
	Yes, that's been clear for quite a while, but good to have a definitive statement. Luckily, Lineage provides the updates for the Pro1.

	It is appreciated. Unfortunately, my Pro1 is still in the shop so I'm out of the loop right now (not suprisingly, nor unexpected—knew it would take time when I sent it in). I'm always happy to see it is still going. Looking forward to getting back and hoping, maybe, there might be an AICP for the Pro1x eventually.

Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Very interesting. Your link does what I say in both FireFox and Edge on my laptop (which is where I've been reading this forum), but your link works perfectly in FireFox or Fulguris on my Moto phone (Pro1 is still in shop). Have no clue. But not a big deal enough to keep at it. Just puzzling. 🙂 -

That's the url, but that's not where it takes me. Takes me to the QX1000 page. <shrug> That is, the url https://fccid.io/2AUCLQX1050 forwards me to https://fccid.io/2AUCLQX1000 If it does differently for you, I'm stumped. -

So, it's weird. Your interior photographs link takes me to the right place, the QX1050 interior photos under "label and label." But VaZso's link takes me to the QX1000 page, which seems to be the Pro1, If I go to the top bread crumb, FX Technology Limited, I see the QX1050 link with the 2022 date, but when I click on the QX1050 link, I am also taken to the QX1000 page, which is the Pro1. I can't find any link that takes me from the QX1000 page to the page with the interior of the QX1050 that you posted and if I click the QX1050 breadcrumb link on that page, I am back on the QX1000 page. -

I'm not sure, but all the dates are 2019. Seems to me this is the original Pro1? -

				I just want a simple Android phone with a Physical Keyboard (PKB)
Hook replied to ExplEngineer's topic in How Tos
I will tell you of my solution, which may be neither possible nor acceptable for you. I am retired and spend a lot of time at home. So I have two phones, my Pro 1 and a Motorola Power (slab) The Moto is my phone phone and car phone (Android Auto) and my Pro1 is my PDA (Though I keep a T-Mobile SIM active in it). My Moto is on Verizon. It is expensive, buying two phones, but it allows me to have the best PDA out there for doing text based tasks while having a solid and reliable phone. I initially did this to solve a problem, but honestly I have come to love this deconvergence (I'm n o - 
	
	
				I just want a simple Android phone with a Physical Keyboard (PKB)
Hook replied to ExplEngineer's topic in How Tos
I agree with @EskeRahnthat right now the Titan Pocket comes closest to meeting your want list and can be shipped now. It will probably do you well and it is currently shipping. https://www.unihertz.com/products/titan-pocket However, there are a few things to consider about the state of PKB phones at this time. As you have noticed, most big companies have done away with them and are producing slabs. That means several things: PKB phones are only made by small companies. How much you can depend on future updates to android will vary. In most cases, you won't be able to c - 
	
	
				Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Not sure who or where you are quoting, but this is just an outright lie. Slow, yes, but they have engineered a phone and right now stand ready for manufacture once the factory opens up and trained workers are available. I'm sorry, but as much as I want my Pro1x to show up on my doorstep, that isn't "nothing." - 
	
	
				Warranty Service Slow and Poor Communication
Hook replied to archseraphim's topic in General Discussion
Pestering them won't do much. In general, I rarely have to wait longer than two weeks for a reply, except this last time because I emailed them just before CNY. An occasional reminder is fine and does sometimes help. Whether this is a fair excuse or not, this is a very small group of people wearing many hats. Are you using the original answer to your trouble ticket with the "please reply above this line" indication? That is the most effective means of getting updates. I have my Pro1 in for repair, sent in much more recently (Jan), but I suspect I won't see the repair until the Pro1x - 
	
	
				Pro1, Ghost touches and other digitizer and display issues
Hook replied to [email protected]'s topic in Support
Agreed. The old Forum bias-- people mostly post in forums when there is a problem, they don't post to say things are going great. Plus there are (probably many) Pro1 owners who never come to this forum. In addition, after two years, is it a defect or just wear and tear on a device with a lot of moving parts? That may get them complaints due to the longevity and quality of their builds and parts, but they have a case for saying it really is no longer a warranty issue. Same thing happens to my cars that start developing problems just after warranty end. 😉 - 
	
	
				Pro1, Ghost touches and other digitizer and display issues
Hook replied to [email protected]'s topic in Support
It don't think that would cause this issue, though the play in the frame, if any, might set it off easier. The screws for the pro1 are here. You want M1,4 and 2mm. They are perfect. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001476534333.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.0.0.21ef18022b0ENN - 
	On T-Mobile, my Pro1 runs fine on it (although the Pro1 doesn't have quite all its bands, which might affect coverage in some places) and now that my Pro1 is in the shop, I'm using the same sim with my Pinephone, so I guarantee you that at this juncture they don't care what you are using. This is Pre-paid, I have no idea about post-paid, but assume it i s the same. I'm sad that this has happened to AT&T. It's less surprising with Verizon (after all, years ago their spokesman was Darth Vader 😉 ), but AT&T used to be (at least pre-paid) the place to bring any kind of phone, they

	Nothing here to dismiss or belittle your frustration, but to clarify some information. First, this is a user-to-user forum. It isn't viewed very often by anyone for FxTec. Second, there are no October or December shipments and there are no replacement Pro1s (can no longer obtain that SOC). If they promised you an October (2021) and then a December shipment, they would have to be talking about sending you the new Pro1x. You haven't received anything in that case because the shipping date(really, the manufacturing date) keeps getting pushed back (factories not fully manned due to cov

	The Pro1 is no longer available. There is the Pro1x coming out, but we do not yet know exactly when. Hopefully soon, but nothing is for sure. You can find information at their crowdfunding page. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pro1-x-smartphone-functionality-choice-control/x/17980121?secret_perk_token=3965f501#/comments Main difference is different SOC (sd662-- Feb 2021 update explains it). You can also buy in store, but they may or may not be able to deliver it in Feb as they say, so only order the Pro1x either place if you can afford to wait. https://www.fxtec.com/p

	You can (at least up to Magisk 23-- since my Pro1 is in for repairs, I haven't tried version 24) rename the apk as a zip file and flash it, just as you do with SUaddon. It will give you root without Magisk manager and any boot sector dance. This method is depreciated, but it works.

	Did you ever try Eske's suggestion to uninstall apps one at a time testing the keyboard after each uninstall? If not, I would insert that after step 1 in your list as, if there is a software culprit and you find it, you can save the reflashing and restoring the bad app.
