Waxberry 638 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 [This is a temporary page while we setting up the support page guild and host files on our server.] The Fastboot restoration file can be downloaded in here. ADD: A newer file for 20200825 can be found here Preparation: You need to have a PC and installed universal ADB driver. Completely turn off the phone. Download the firmware and unfold and copy all the files into the adb folder which installed with the driver. Procedures: Hold Volume down + Power key together, when the logo shows up, release both fingers. The phone should boot into bootloader. Connect the phone to the PC, and because the driver is installed, system should have identified the connection. Right click Windows Logo --- Run --- Type cmd In command line, move to the adb folder using cd. For example, if the adb folder is in C:\adb, type cd C:\adb Then we need to see if the device successfully connects, type fastboot devices the outcome should have a device list there. If the device is successfully connected, run the following commands fastboot flash boot_a boot.img fastboot flash boot_b boot.img fastboot flash dtbo_a dtbo.img fastboot flash dtbo_b dtbo.img fastboot flash system_a system.img fastboot flash system_b system.img fastboot flash vendor_a vendor.img fastboot flash vendor_b vendor.img fastboot flash vbmeta_a vbmeta.img fastboot flash vbmeta_b vbmeta.img fastboot flash userdata.img fastboot flash abl_a abl.elf fastboot flash abl_b abl.elf fastboot flash persist persist.img fastboot flash mdtp_a mdtp.img fastboot flash mdtp_b mdtp.img fastboot flash splash splash.img fastboot flash xbl_a xbl.elf fastboot flash xbl_b xbl.elf fastboot flash rpm_a rpm.mbn fastboot flash rpm_b rpm.mbn fastboot flash tz_a tz.mbn fastboot flash tz_b tz.mbn fastboot flash hyp_a hyp.mbn fastboot flash hyp_b hyp.mbn fastboot flash pmic_a pmic.elf fastboot flash pmic_b pmic.elf fastboot flash modem_a NON-HLOS.bin fastboot flash modem_b NON-HLOS.bin fastboot flash keymaster_a km4.mbn fastboot flash keymaster_b km4.mbn fastboot flash cmnlib_a cmnlib.mbn fastboot flash cmnlib_b cmnlib.mbn fastboot flash cmnlib64_a cmnlib64.mbn fastboot flash cmnlib64_b cmnlib64.mbn fastboot flash bluetooth_a BTFM.bin fastboot flash bluetooth_b BTFM.bin fastboot flash dsp_a adspso.bin fastboot flash dsp_b adspso.bin fastboot flash devcfg_a devcfg.mbn fastboot flash devcfg_b devcfg.mbn fastboot flash mdtpsecapp_a mdtpsecapp.mbn fastboot flash mdtpsecapp_b mdtpsecapp.mbn fastboot flash storsec storsec.mbn After it’s all finished, run fastboot reboot And the phone should now be restored to factory state. Once the support page or restoring firmware is setup, this post will link to the relevant page. Have fun flashing the Pro1! 🙂 7 15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mcdinner 375 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Just curious, is it normal to have so many files to flash over fastboot? I can't remember having done this before, just flashed TWRP and then an .img file or the fastboot image directly. but its also easy to script 🙂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kashif 350 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 Apart from flashing, Pro1 still has the option to just hard reset? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kashif 350 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 The two most important things we need are, first these root files to flash and the second thing is the disassemble manual. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I can't remember having done this before, just flashed TWRP and then an .img file or the fastboot image directly. but its also easy to script 🙂 This is what they call a "flash-all" in xda type circles... and they're often this long, and there is a batch file included in the zip/rar which you can run under windows or linux as a shell script (with minor modifications if necessary, like this one has a few commands at the beginning I'd remove) If TWRP can backup, any one of us can make a stock backup on day 0, and that's another way to restore stock. (In my experience, you can use someone elses backup jus fine, that's for example how I restore my PQ to stock ics or jellybean is with stock twrp backups I downloaded - but I dunno if that still applies to modern devices).

netman 1,424 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 With some hex editor magic we can get a sneak peak of the boot screen, it's beautiful :). 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hide contents Yes it is cool. Though unfortunately as I understand it they are by some odd rules required to show the boot and any password request in portrait, even if the slider is open... 😖 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

silversolver 849 Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 What are the odds of a stock ROM with no GcrApps in it and root access via settings switch like Lineage? 😉 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it's good they make it have GMS android, we can just take out the google stuff or flash lineage 🙂. It's amazing to me they have unlocked bootloader from the box tho, good stuff.

Yes, agreed, but I didn't mean an out-of-box stock ROM, but a fastboot stock ROM that was available for people like us to add later. I'm aware that we can remove the GcrApps, but it would be cleaner if it just weren't there ever. Essentially, I'd like to be able to benefit from the extensive software polishing that they are doing without having to yank sCroogle out manually. Oh well.

I also don't know if you could do that by digging into the fastboot files and finding the Gapps. I'm out of my depth here. (I root and flash ROMs, but I'm just knowledgeable enough to be dangerous). 🙄 Edited November 28, 2019 by Hook Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It would just be nice if there was an official option where this was already done so that someone like myself could know it was done correctly. (I know how it could be done in theory but have never even come close to doing it LOL) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Man, stuff like this should be illegal under antitrust law... Do you know how far this extends? E.g, could fxtec provide us with enough sources of their Android customizations so that we can easily build those "alternative stock roms" ourselves, or is even that forbidden? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We already have the source code required to build our own alternative ROMs. The kernel source is on GitHub, as well as a device tree for LineageOS. This may still be at a pre-release level of reliability, but that is just a matter of debugging effort. The future is only limited by the effort people are willing to put into development for the Pro1, and not by any sort of licensing restrictions. 1 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

An interesting question. But remember that under any F(x)tec modifications for the Pro1 are some code for supporting the hardware, and THAT might well be protected by some copyrights, so it might not be up to F(x)tec to disclose the source, no matter if they would like to do so or not.... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Both is true, but I was more referencing to the "higher layers" of Android, i.e. UI customization and everything related to the slider. Though, that might very well be just the launcher. We could try pulling the launcher from stock and putting it into a LineageOS install, but of course having the source would be nicer :D 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I recollect something about messaging/email as well maybe @EskeRahn could confirm that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
