Any update on a new firmware build that'll support Verizon for Pro1x?


Recommended Posts

I got my Pro1x a couple months ago...and immediately found that it couldn't connect and/or stay connected to Verizon well enough to work...at all.

 

Was advised at the time that it was a known issue in the firmware, and that a new version would be available soon.

 

As far as I can tell, that hasn't ever happened.  Does anyone have any information on when that new build will be available?

 

Relatedly, am I going to have to do the update manually, or will there be an OTA update (like that would come down over a wifi connection maybe)?

I don't know about the firmware fix, but there are two issues here.  One is connectivity on different bands--- that is what the firmware fix will address.  The other is that Verizon is only allowing white listed phones on their network and the Pro1X isn't one of them. It will connect unofficially with a muled SIM, but it may stop working at any time. That is out of FxTec's hands.  There is a whole thread here about Verizon on the Pro 1 and Pro 1x, Some claim to get it working, but rarely come back to periodically verify that it keeps working.  I got 3 months with Verizon on the Pro1 before SMS broke.

Could you go to your dial pad and enter *#*#4636#*#*, then take a screenshot of the Phone info? Feel free to send it via DM. I am curious what it says..
