Pro1x Screen Repair (Using Dummy Pro1) Service?

[Burkhard 6]

Hello @KasperT
I’ve tried a few things—I even contacted the seller, but they don't ship to Germany. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone abroad, either.
If you could buy it for me and send it my way, I’d really appreciate it.
I’ll send you a direct message.

Apologies for not checking this thread more regularly! I can still flash screens for the Pro1 X.

Hello @EskeRahn and @jsreed5

My narrative is that my Fxtec Pro1 phone died on me a few months ago whilst on holiday. I tried the trick with the rubber bands, however although the phone does take charge the screen is black. The mobile phone shop says the screen needs replacing. As you can appreciate after awaiting like 2 years for phone, I am reluctant to buy a new device and actually like device quite a bit.

I have used the useful link https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005380679658.html to order a replacement screen and it should come to the UK by the end of the month. It was a useful find as the local repair shop were suggesting circa $150 to replace screen.

My worry is once the screen comes how easy it will be to replace, as now Fxtec have shut up shop. The thread suggests that a reflashing of firmware etc. is needed. 

I had previously loaded GApps and Lineage OS using ADB sideload. Once screen is received is there a recommended shop to go to in London to install it or is there a video to fall where we can do with own mobile phone repair tools. Also, is it clear whether flashing is required after?

Thank you and sorry for the basic questions.
