Just got my Pro1X and ran through these instructions and it worked! Just installed the 01/27 build. This is my first time doing this, so not sure if this is normal or not, but just wanted to note that the progress for step 5 was at 47% for many minutes (maybe ~5), but it ultimately worked:

# adb sideload lineage-20.0-20230127-UNOFFICIAL-pro1x.zip
serving: 'lineage-20.0-20230127-UNOFFICIAL-pro1x.zip' (~47%)

[...] After some minutes, it updates to the following and the phone shows the reboot option [...]

Total xfer: 1.00x

I'm testing the 0127 build and overall it works great! However, using the physical keyboard, I cannot type any of the symbols on the number keys. With the stock OS, I would hold down the yellow arrow key and press a number. For example, holding down the arrow key and pressing 1 should type an exclamation point. The right arrow key also doesn't work. See attached video.

This is an unfortunate interaction with how Android applies language-specific key maps. Until we switch to the new keyboard driver, you must not "Configure the physical keyboard" by selecting a language and layout despite what the notification says. Just dismiss that notification by sliding it to one side.

To fix this problem, turn off all switches in Settings->System->Languages & input->Physical keyboard->Fxtec Pro1->Set up keyboard layouts, and reboot.

BTW, in case this isn't already on your radar, one feature I would love to see with the physical keyboard is the ability to toggle keys like Shift, the arrow key, etc. For example, sometimes it's more natural to want to type a capital letter on the left side of the keyboard with just my left hand so I'd like to be able to click Left Shift with my left hand and then click a letter. Right now, I have to hold down Shift. I know there are the same buttons on the right side of the keyboard to do the same, but that's not always convenient.

I installed LOS20 a week or so ago. Whenever I make a phone call using my car's bluetooth handsfree feature, the bluetooth disconnects from the stereo and I can only make calls over speaker. I made sure in the LOS20 bluetooth settings that the car is enabled for phone calls, media, contacts, and text messaging. How can I fix this?

Also, how do I "upgrade" to the latest build without losing all my apps/settings/messages etc?

Hi,
I noticed that the camera is not working in many apps. For example, in Signal Messenger when trying to take a photo from within the app or when using Threema and trying to scan a QR code from within the app (to connect with the Threema desktop app). Most of the times the camera picture is just plain dark as if the camera is not sending any images. Sometimes one frame loads, but is then stuck.

The on-board camera app works fine, though.

Another bug I noticed is with USB. When I connect the phone to a computer and select "Data transfer" in the notification menu on the phone, it shows up just fine on my computer as an external harddrive. I can download files just fine, but when I upload more than a few small files (about 400 files/17 GB), the connection resets as if the USB cable was disconnected. My computer (Ubuntu) gives the following error message:

```
libmtp-Fehler: Could not send object info.
```

I'd like to upgrade LineageOS for the first time. What's the proper way to do a backup of my data first? I searched but couldn't find anything.

For upgrading you usually flash the newer LineageOS ROM to your phone like you did with the first install. Make sure to install all parts of the ROM and install again MindTheGapps, Magisk, and/or other apps you had installed via fastboot or adb sideload.

Oh, I just realized I misread your question. I use TitaniumBackup for backing up all my data. It requires having a lot of free space on your phone to put your backup in or you have to pay for unlocking the upload options.

Note that the pro1x has a Caps Lock key, and it should work in most cases where Shift would be used. Also, the default key character map we are currently providing defines parallel combinations for most of the yellow glyphs printed on the keyboard, so you can use either 'Fn' (the yellow arrow keys), Shift, or Caps Lock to type them. Unfortunately there are a few cases where this wasn't possible, e.g. '\' and ';'.

There are also a few other changes from stock: The 'F' logo key is now Meta, which means the old function of this key has moved to Meta+Enter (instead of the key being dedicated to bringing up the home screen). This enables all the other Android shortcut keys, which can be listed with Meta+'/'. This list of shortcuts changes based on context, so be sure to check it in each app to discover what new shortcut key combinations are defined (if any). We have also remapped Sym so it now generates AltGr (ralt), which is used by many of the native Android language overlays to type special characters. Just remember that if you enable any lanugage overlay, the Fn mappings will be overwritten and you won't be able to type '\' or ';' at all :(.

One final note: Android uses Alt+Meta internally for 'Caps Lock', and because they are adjacent on the pro1x it is easy to accidentally type both keys at the same time. If you notice that Caps Lock is stuck on even though the LED on the Caps Lock key is not lit, try typing Alt+Meta to turn it off. This one drove me crazy on the pro1 until I figured out the cause ;)

    I only recently noticed the fingerprint reader issue, that was fixed on stock android beta, being still there on LOS.
    Somehow the reader seems to be constantly active, it causes page reloads on chrome if you touch it.
    I don't know what the change on stock android was, but it fixed it for everybody. Maybe you could get more info on what was changed to also put that fix in LOS.
