Right - I have tested those displays (with Pro1) but had no time publishing the results yet. However, smaller or bigger black corners were there, they clearly seem to be part of former Pro1 replaced bits as part of qality assurance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you connect the display to a Pro 1, you can use the Pro 1 method of flashing/reflashing Stock Android 9 and then put the display back into the Pro1x and it will work properly. However, there is no patch we know of for the Pro1x using those displays. Ok ... I don't have pro1, i only have pro1x. I will try the second display i bought, perhaps it realy comme from a pro1. But, can someone explain to me, why only pro1 + stock android 9 can update the touch panel ? Is there a specific driver? I don't realy understand the world of android, compared to the PC world. On Pc you cant install particaly wahtever you want, On android devices is like your luky is you can do what you want... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Because it does not have the specific code in the boot proess which checks that setting. Originally Pro1's firmware also did not have this check, it came through an update.

If you have a Pro1, yes, maybe. They had those in stock (it includes the proper frame), or you can order Elephone U Pro displays (without the frame) from Alie express or there is the full-frame screen for the Pro 1 linked above in this thread, also from Alie Express. For the Pro1x, no, they don't have. And if they have any, they would be going to people who ordered them on IGG, but probably not in London. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think, F(x)tec is not open about such information and I am unsure if they even have that code... However, the process is not complicated. I have tried to reach the hardware from Linux environment on Pro1 but direct access did not work that way (or I have not fond out how to completely release touch device under Android).

That would be possible but an appropriate connector of the display would be needed and the exact location of VCC, GND and I2C (SDA and SCL) lines should be wired out... then a microcontroller or microcomputer could also be used to do the configuration. (So Raspberry or other microcomputer which has I2C interface, or a microcontroller like AVR, MSP430, STM32, etc.) So practically the job is easy but the task is complicated because the need of a special connector and pinout... ...also VCC could be a question if it is 3.3V or maybe lower voltage...

patrykgrzesiak 27 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 (edited) I have received my screen from Aliexpress and it is missing the connector board. Are there any specific instructions how to move it from the broken screen without damaging? edit: There were 2 small screws near the camera and some glue in the middle Screen has been replaced successfully. The screen is ok, everything works as intended. I can recommend the full frame Pro1 screen from Aliexpress 🙂 Edited June 4 by patrykgrzesiak 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VaZso 1,998 Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 21 hours ago, guss said: i didn't try it yet I am curious what you find if you try it but as far as I remember well, I could basically access I2C devices but touch panel is a bit deep inside the system. Somehow I was able to disable touch panel after boot but still its I2C address was not released for accessing from other tools. I was trying to use Linux tools from terminal as root. Maybe if it was possible to execute something prior initializing touch panel during boot process... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
