claude0001 1,341 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 The latest update on IGG (two weeks ago) https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/pro1-x-smartphone-functionality-choice-control#/updates/all suggests LineageOS development is stopped until October. It is essentially waiting to be rebased on the new stock-ROM that they hope to certify in September. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
brunoais 334 Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 There's finally a build of LOS that works and I got myself a test build with it. It's still too early and barely works enough for the hardware but it's a great light at the end of the tunnel for LineageOS on Pro¹-X 4 4 Link to post Share on other sites

azamrazman 7 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Hi Community, As we all are aware, the Pro1X project has been facing many treacherous delays, which includes the delivery of Lineage OS (despite being advertised as ready out of the box). I received my device, and I want to help. What can I do to help speed things up? (I am not strong on the technical side) Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites

Indeed. I do not know if you are aware of the full story, but the Pro1X was originally intended as a slight variation of the Pro1, with more ram and in a blue cabinet. FxTec was swindled by those they ordered and paid the 835 chipset from. And it was impossible to source them elsewhere as Qualcomm had stopped production, so they had to redesign the whole inner phone for a different chipset. And as one side effect the existing software will not work on the Pro1X as it ended.... If your question is how you can support LineageOS development, I guess you should start here, if you mean financially, they e.g. got a paypal link at the bottom: https://paypal.me/LineageOS Link to post Share on other sites
claude0001 1,341 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 After trying to actually use my Pro1-X as a phone, I am now convinced that community devs simply refuse to invest further effort into a Lineage port until at least the most blatant bugs in the device are ironed-out by the manufacturer. Few will want to invest time and effort into a new OS for a device that does not work on the most fundamental level of a phone. If the Pro1-X's connectivity problems are indeed related to the modem driver, we'll just have to wait until F(x)tec pump out a new stock to base on. If the issues are hardware-related, the device is practically DOA for many users anyway ... 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Hook 3,020 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Well, TBH, the Pro1 wasn't a truly great phone, which is why I stopped trying to use it as one, and they made Lineage for it anyway. I suppose, from what people are saying, the Pro1x is worse (although whatever the problem, it wasn't picked up by the beta testers). I don't know since I don't have one. However, since I have no real plans to use my Pro1x as a phone, I really hope they push ahead with a version of Lineage for it and make phone/modem/whatever fixes later. Selfish, yes I know. ;-) Link to post Share on other sites

Selfish, yes I know. 😉 I think most of your problems with Pro1 were caused by the fact you live in the USA and telephony systems generally work a bit different way there. I am using my Pro1 as a daily driver together with LineageOS and it works well for me. However, network coverage is relatively good here. Network coverage is basically in par with my Motorola G6 (which was my previous phone), however, that also could has been a bit better... but nothing huge problems for me. WiFi works well but it is true it sometimes drops connection then reconnects... LTE works well, GPS works well (much better than it was in my Moto G6), bluetooth works well. Regarding telephony, sometimes I had complains about silent voice and I have a friend whose phone has a lot of noise while speaking with me but not by using another phone at his side or at my side. As a comparison, there is no noise at all speaking with either of his phones and Pro1X - I think it is something to do with communication protocols somewhere. I don't really have experience with Pro1X as usually it does not accept calls and usually it also can not initiate calls... 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Well, yes, Verizon was a PITA, but it worked fine on AT&T (that was back when the techs at AT&T got excited when I showed them the Pro1). My main two problems were that without a headset, calls were almost as loud as a speaker phone so there was little privacy and the fact that for some reason it would not use the car speakers/microphone when connected to BT so I couldn't get hands free. I freely admit I had neither the technical knowledge nor the patience to see if I could work through to a solution to these two problems and these may have been corrected in later stock and/or Lineage updates, but I never went back once I discovered the practical solution of using a Moto slab for phone/ car-phone and the Pro 1 as a pocket computer for everything else. 🙂 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Fortunately, I don't have problems with my car BT handsfree but there may be difference regarding protocols. Anyway, it also works together using standalone Bluetooth handsfree unit and I have also tried it using Samsung Gear S3 Frontier where handsfree mode worked. Maybe you ran into a compatibility issue... Link to post Share on other sites
azamrazman 7 Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 Hi Community, F(x)tec IGG dropped a pretty huge revelation, quote "LineageOS 20 is now able to boot up on a Pro1-X with Android 13!

It was about half a year between we saw the first unofficial v16 for the Pro1 to an officially released 16.0. I have no idea if that is representative or not. I hope that at the least some logic (e.g. around the keyboard) can be reused from the Pro1, and thus simplifying the development. Link to post Share on other sites

What I can say is that we have a skillful and experienced team of developers interested in working on LineageOS for the Pro1-X. While all our work is public, we don't necessarily post a neon sign saying, "Break ur phone here!" 😉 The Pro1-X work is moderately stable now and has been moved to the official LineageOS org on GitHub: https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_fxtec_pro1x https://github.com/LineageOS/android_kernel_fxtec_sm6115 You are welcome to use these for your own builds, but please be prepared debug any problems yourself. There are a few outstanding fixes on our gerrit, esp. this topic: https://review.lineageos.org/q/topic:pro1x-old_kbd_driver Also, please remember that although we work for free, we do not work on your schedule. Do not complain to LineageOS about the software shipped on the Pro1-X. 5 5 Link to post Share on other sites
