  1. Well, I'm happy I ordered a Pro1X. I think the color is growing on me and I will now have one for a daily driver and one for OS related experiments that I'm too timid to try on my daily driver. πŸ˜‰ Also, never hurts to have a backup. It was agony while I was waiting for repairs. Of course (assuming I do get it), the price paid was much more reasonable than that ebay one (and more memory).

    Yeah, forgot about that, which is funny since I first posted that video in this forum. I didn't remember it having such a good look. That thing he is waving around in his hand, that is what I believe you get.

    It is, at the minimum, a screen plus the metal frame (they ask you for the color). So you don't have to mount the display. What else from the top half would depend on how those things are mounted to the frame, which I haven't looked at closely. If all the other things are mounted on a pcb also attached to the frame, maybe it doesn't give you that pcb. Not willing to open up my Pro1 just to find out, but it is still a lot more than just a display and saves you from having to deal with adhesive.

    They are providing not just the display but the entire frame, that is, the enitre top half of the Pro1/Pro1X. They even offered (don't know if they still do) choice of the new sapphire blue or the Pro1's black for the frame. So, yes, includes everything that goes in that half of the phone except the backplate, I would assume. From Alirexpress, you only get the display replacement and have to remove (unglue) the old one. For those who are handy, a good deal.
  6. Not to official Lineage, I think is the point. He has added it to AICP.
  7. They said clearly they would update monthly. Given how small they are and everything they are managing, that seems good. So I expect an update this week or next. Monthly is fine with me. I want them focusing on getting me my Pro1x rather than swatting at IGG comments.
  8. Yes they do. Contact them at info@fxtec,com with a full description of the problem(s) and they will get back to you. It may take them a week or two to reply to the email, varying on volume of mail and things like how locked down they are. I just had a successful repair done.
  9. Just a suggestion. If everyone who would love to have a new or used Pro1 posts here... well it could turn into a very long thread. πŸ˜„ I think the thread title is an unfortunate misnomer. It's a seller's market. So I think it would be more effective for people to post here when they have a Pro1 to sell and then buyers can talk about that one (or, better yet, PM the seller). Again, just a suggestion. If this thread becomes very long with buyer posts, a seller is unlikely to page back to find the first one who expressed interest.
  10. If you return something not because it's defective but because you are unhappy with it as it is supposed to be, stores may charge you a restocking fee if it has been opened. I don't know if this is a practice limited to the US or not.
  11. Is this with any sound chosen or just the default sound? If all sounds, check volume rocker and also check you didn't accidentally trigger the Do Not Disturb quick tile in the pull down notification shade (I've done that before).
  12. Thanks. Not being very technical, I never knew the explanation. Just knew it solved a lot of problems. As I said, my go to first move when things are wonky. πŸ™‚
  13. I'm afraid that's worrying. The Sandisk labeling on that card is for a line that only goes up to 32 Gb. Neither Sandisk, nor Amazon show any Sandisk card commercially available with more than 1TB and they are over $200. Fry's doesn't seem to have many Sandisk cards currently. Here is Sandisk's current listings with their label formts(No 2 TB SDXC cards): https://kb.sandisk.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22697/~/microsd%2Fmicrosdhc%2Fmicrosdxc-card-support-information-page I'd really love to be wrong, but I wouldn't trust this card. If everything on it is backed up elsewhere, mi
  14. So I'm assuming you Contacts app also is your phone app? Is it selected still in Settings -> Apps & Notifications -> Default apps?
  15. No. It literally does the same thing a battery pull would do. Doesn't touch your apps. I don't know exactly why it solves problems, but I know in the old days pulling a battery from a phone (like blackberries) would also solve wonkiness often.
  16. It doesn't wipe your phone, just helps clean garbage out.
  17. I know this sounds silly but try two things. First, go into settings -> apps and clear chache on the phone app. Then do a simulated battery pull. This is done by holding the power button. Keep holding it (ignore the pop-up shutdown menu) until the Pro1 spontaneously restarts. This is my go to whenever I get inexplicable wonky behavior. It works for lot of cases. Don't know if it will solve yours, but unless yours is a messed up proximity sensor, it's all I've got. πŸ˜‰
  18. I guess I don't use my Pro1 in portrait enough to understand the problem this is addressing. I use my Pro1 in landscape 95% of the time. I'll snap out the keyboard even to type "OK" πŸ˜„ I have my display size set to "smallest" in settings and I get a goo deal of screen real estate, in either landscape or portrait, but certainly landscape. I mostly do all my settings for landscape. I don't really care a whole lot about hoe things look in portrait. The very few apps I use that insist on portrait orientation (generally, if I find one, I look for replacements), I just split screen. Never real
  19. Just got my Pro1 bacjk from repair. Superb. Not a ghost touch anywhere. Immediately installed the update of AICP and aside from a rookie mistake and a hiccup in the connection to my computer for a moment, everything went smoothly. I love this ROM!!! @tdmThank you! Thank you also FxTec for the great repair.
  20. Just saying, AICP is up to date, based on Android 10, and does Magisk as an easy flash like addonsu. Developed by tdm as well. Latest zip here (ignore that the date in the description has not been edited, the link will get you the latest zip from Feb, Has Jan security patch). https://community.fxtec.com/topic/3191-aicp-q-discussion/ Flashable Magisk zip here (I'm still using 21.3): https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/ Very similar to Lineage 17.1 but with more features. The point is, although you use Magisk, it is simply flashing a single zip in recovery, no
  21. For me, the key is updateability. For niche devices made by small companies that means an unlockable bootloader and at least Lineage being available (and probably means having a Qualcom chip), because no small company making niche devices are going to keep Android up to date. either in terms of version nor security patches. IDEA corp's contract support is not great-- they are a big company with many big clients. But FxTec's relationships with the development community, even if you have to wait forever to get your device, is invaluable. I won't deny that I thought of getting a Titan as
