On Sunday, Casey communicated to me that he had all the files and would create new links "Next week." I don't know if that meant the week we are in or really next week. I suspect it hasn't been quicker because he is not where he can easily take care of this. But it will happen. There is someone in our unofficial Discord who is currently sharing the files on Proton Drive if you are impatient. That's where you would want to ask questions about it.

Almost sounds like the protection that allows you to put the screen to your face when talking (which usually darkens the screen) has somehow gone awry. It only happens after you have made a call? What about while you are in the call. Can you pull the phone away from your face and look something up like normal? I've never heard of something like this happening. I wonder if there is some app that is misbehaving?

LineageOS 21.0 Official Release for Pro1-X (QX1050)

I had noticed that the G-drive links in the official help documents posted by Casey were no longer working (access was denied). I reached out and this was not intentional and they will be fixed sometime this week or so. Just wanted to let folks know. Be patient and the links will work again.

I think I have totally bricked my FX(tec) Pro1x
Hook replied to leoric's topic in General Discussion
Again, all the rubber band was intended to solve is being able to charge the battery. It may have done that, but it doesn't solve the main problem of flashing a very wrong version of stock intended for a different phone. I think your best bet is to try the QFIL recovery method in this document posting: I know the Google Drive link no longer works. You can email them to see if they can reopen the link. I do have all* the files downloaded from that link. If you want to DM me, I can provide them to you. Do understand I have never done this and won't be much help if things go -

Thanks to a heads up from @TeZtdevice, some evidence that Android 15 might be coming (not necessarily soon, but being worked on, as long as they don't hit any show stoppers). https://review.lineageos.org/q/project:LineageOS/android_device_fxtec_pro1x+branch:lineage-22.0 -
LineageOS 21.0 Official Release for Pro1 (QX1000)

Nice. For Pro1x as well. -

Hook replied to leoric's topic in General Discussion
Okay, the big problem here, I believe, is that the directions you followed were for the Pro 1, not the Pro1x-- so you flashed Android 9 for an 835 SOC to a device that ran Android 11 with a 662 SOC. Unfortunately, I'm not technical enough to know if you can recover from that. I hope someone else here has that knowledge and can help. The instructions for flashing the Pro1x were here. I say "were" because it now looks like you have to request access when you click on the google drive. You can try that, but if you don't succeed DM me, I have the files. But you need someone else to aff -

Maybe you know better. I have been assuming that if you are updating OTA rather than sideloading, flashing the newer Gapps isn't relevant since the Google Apps are updated by Google. -

I suspect that actually your Pro1x has been revived by the rubber band method but your problem is with the display. There is one easy thing you can check. The back of the display can be easily opened (5 screws, no glue) and you can check the ribbon cable to see if it is properly connected and seated. Unfortunately, if that's not it, it is probably a defective display. I wasn't sure whether you said FxTec didn't answer your email or replied saying they couldn't help you (meanng they have no display replacements they could send you). If the former, you may have to wait a bit. They are

Finally looking at my Pro1x, getting nowhere
Hook replied to suicidal_orange's topic in General Discussion
That instruction at step 5 sounds like it is referring to the LOS recovery. It looks like you have ADB able to interact with your phone. What do you get if you do "adb devices?" Reboot into system (Stock Android) and issue the command "Adb devices" if it comes back with something like "unauthorized". look on the Pro1x for a dialog box asking you to approve the connection. Then "adb devices" should return an identifier for the Pro1x. If so, adb is enabled. Even with LOS, I rarely need that enable adb step for anything. I only use it if I'm having trouble. Most of the time I don't. -
How long did you leave on? It often needs to be overnight. And make sure it is on tight enough to keep the power button pressed. You may have done all that but wasn't clear with the details you provided.

Finally looking at my Pro1x, getting nowhere
Hook replied to suicidal_orange's topic in General Discussion
I found some old notes from when I tested my Pro1x for the 5 minutes it was on stock. The above works but the only difference is that, for the Pro1x, holding volume down when booting takes you to the dead robot. Then the procedure documented takes you to recovery. -

Hook replied to suicidal_orange's topic in General Discussion
If you are on Stock, you do have a recovery. When you get the dead robot you need one more step. (This link is about the Pro 1, but I believe it is the same for the Pro1x-- not that I can test being on LOS 21) Whether getting to recovery helps or not, I don't know, but there is a stock recovery already. -
Sorry, I missed that.

No the screens have always been fairly inexpensive and this one is even available with the proper frame (I believe, I have one in the closet but haven't had the need to install it). And you are lucky, as you have the Pro 1. The new screen will have a non-responsive area around the edges. You'll need to reinstall stock Android 9 and that will fix it because one of the updates included that patch that is needed. Unfortunately, that means you will have to wipe everything. At least I think so. You had to with the Elephone U Pro screens, which are the same screen. We still no real solution fo

LineageOS 21.0 Official Release for Pro1 (QX1000)
Hook replied to TeZtdevice's topic in General Discussion
Decided after some time to go back to using my Pro1 as a no-Google phone. So,factory reset and flashed Lineage-21-20241005-NIGHTLY-pro1-signed,zip with September 5th security patch and Magisk27.zip. All installed smoothly via ADB sideload. I tested root with TotalCommander and it was successful (I did have to let Magisk update via it's app after the sideload, but it took care of the boot image dance). Quick and easy. -

Yes, it does. It has pretty endless features. I don't use many of them.

Wait until you find out I don't use gestures.

Yes, you can search for apps by name either by typing on the home screen or by hitting home (circle) while on the home screen. I rarely need to because my 90% apps are on my three home screens nicely organized. And, yes, you get the app drawer by pulling on the bottom of the screen.

I guess I don't have problems with Nova on the Pro1 and Pro1x because I don't use widgets much. I don't spend a lot of time looking at my "Desktop" when I'm working on my phone so I only use it to organize apps. I have three "Desktops" besides the Home screen shown, one for writing and editing, one for internet and commercial apps. It's fairly easy to organize app icons so they look fine in either landscape or portrait. Also, I use my Pro1 and Pro1x in landscape 99% of the time. I just can't tolerate on-screen keyboards anymore. But I can see this being a problem with a lot of widget
