Because the fits of most "shell" cases were not as good as I want (mostly the display part laying on the edges so it does not fully close), I tried some "sleeve" cases and wanted to share the Info with you.
WARING: I think the Pro 1 is very slippery so getting it out of the sleeves is a bit fiddly and it might slip out of your hands!
Case #1:
+Tight fit on the beginning. It get wider after some days.
+Has a belt loop for those who are in to this style of carrying it around.
- Could be a little bit deeper, so the corner protection is better in case of a drop.
- Pull out strip was ripped out after one week. I got a replacement for free from seller.
Case #2:
+ Good fit on first day.
+ Pull out it bigger then on case #1 so it easier to get out.
- deeper then the other case but corner have a cut out, so protection not as good as it can be.
If someone wants so have some pictures let me know.
EDIT: Typos

You do have to flash with fastboot to go back to stock from another OS.
Ok, so I have to do all the two dozens of "fastboot flash" commands from the first post? Iwas just curious if there is a "one command way".

Thats an android default function, so yes. 🙂
Quick question. Is this a way back to stock or do I have to flash all the files via fastboot?

Is this of any help? Not mine, but I have the link...
Thank you, this will help!

Try the factorykit build in test (but look out for triggering the emergency call) Here my translated list. See top of thread on how to open.Thank you. Am I guessing right, that I have to flash back to the Stock rom to get this tool set?

Thank you for the fast answers.

Yes, does not fix it.

No, i disabled that in the settings.
22 hours ago, EskeRahn said:It is actually not a physical contact but a small magnet that affects a Hall-sensor when closed. (The magnet is roughly under the right Shift key)
Aaaah good to know. I was able to trigger the orientation with a whiteboard magnet just for testing. But with another magnet I can't trigger it reliably.
Additional info:
I am still not sure if is related to gravity or software/orientation detection. Maybe the magnet is loose an "sinking down" which weakens the magnetic field. Because in a fixed portrait orientation it does not flip. Usually it flips after sometime when laying flat. And sometimes it flips portrait to landscape back an forth depending on me tilting it, when closed (which is disabled in the settings).I found that to make contact I some times have to lift the lit just 5 mm and it will flip, instead of pressing the right corners. Which makes me feel its not a range Problem of the sensor...
Next steps for me:
- I will experiment with some padding to adjust the gap when closed.
- Maybe I contact someone from the LOS folks to get some hints on of LOS reads this sensor for the open detection...
Questions:
- Any suggestions what else to try?
- Is there a detailed disassembly guide to the Pro1? I was not able to find anything suitable for me here. Maybe I could take a quick look on the internals to figure out what can be loose.
- Any chance to get someone form the engineering department on the forums? I bet someone who knows the guts f this phone could help with many issues and make assumptions what it can be. Because I really to want to use this device!

Hello Folks,
I hope you can help me because the original manufacturer manual was missing in my package 😉
I witnessed a strange thing with the screen orientation in my Pro1, from around December 2019, bought second hand. It is running LOS.
I set the screen orientation to non automatic. So I want it in portrait when it is closed and only switch to landscape when it is open. This mostly works fine. But sometimes when the phone is closed and the screen is off and I lay it flat on a table it turns it self in to landscape mode. And it won't turn back to portait orientation itself. There are few things I do to "fix" it for the moment but:
- Sometimes I have to open and shut a few times to turn.
- Press down on one of the right screen corners (the upper right corner has a little gap when closed).
- Just open it a few milometers and let it flap back.
This is very in consistent and hard to diagnose because it happens kind of random. I am not sure if it is a LOS thing or a mechanical issue. I would think its mechanical because it only happens when it lays flat (tested it a few times)
Can anyone tell me how the Pro1 detects if it is open or not? I saw a little piece of brass, which looks like a kind of spring switch on the keyboard part under the lit. Maybe this is an indicator switch?
EDIT: Typos fixed.
EDIT2: Since I posted this it won't turn back to portrait anymore. Maybe someone from Fxtec could give me a hint?
Edit3: Well after praying and pushing on the corner it flipped. I am confident it is related to the "lit-closed-detection" contact.....

Hello,
I installed Lineage OS and I am curious if the "single hand mode" is available in this ROM, because I can not find any option. And the swiping does not work.
Info: I am coming from a 4" device and want to take a look in to this feature....The screen is so big 🙂 -

Today I took the time to flash Lineage OS , following the instructions at https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/pro1/install .
My Pro1 has physical qwertz keyboard layout and I prefer German as system language.So i did the following steps (sorry for writing german setting names here):
"Einstellungen" --> "System" --> "Sprachen & Eingabe" --> "Physische Tastatur" -> "Builtin Keyboard" -> "Tastaturlayout wählen" + "einrichten": Checked Deutsch (Android Tastatur).
Still no change: Most keys seem to be "shifted" , i.e. pressing "f" then a "d" is printed .
After searching and reading for ages here without success, I found the solution rather accidently: There is another option for keyboard settungs which is not translated and so can not be found by search (with german words ...):
"Einstellungen" --> "System" --> "Erweitert" --> "Keyboard" (scroll all the way down) --> "Layout" where it is possible to switch between QWERTY and QWERTZ !
Searching in settings for "fn" (and tapping on one of the two matches) are leading there also.
I think an appropriate hint belongs to installation procedure.
Cheers, order#10248
Just, thank you so much. Made me insane.....

I got rid of my pro 1 and I have some stuff left.
- one spare display, probably this one, got it from the guy it bought it from. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32952316407.html
- one pouch, originally packed https://www.ebay.de/itm/Forcell-Deko-Etui-für-HUAWEI-Schutzhülle-Handytasche-Case-Klett-Zugband/232712429540?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=532331998553&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
- one bumper shell, I cut away some of the edges to make it fit better. Looks similar to this Shorted ebay link
If you want something PM me and we work it out. I would prefer so ship it in Germany...maybe Europe.
