  2. yes, you can lock it via adb/fastboot. reboot to bootloader. adb reboot bootloader then you can lock it via fastboot fastboot oem lock this one worked for my actual phone, if it throws an error try one of those fastboot oem relock fastboot flashing lock if no error occured you can reboot with fastboot reboot but be aware that unlocking the bootloader again will wipe you phone.

  3. I don't use Google Pay either due to privacy reasons, but your argument is still wrong. It doesn't matter what smartphones were created for, it's the question what they are used for. And if people are used to watching the latest dog pictures in some internet forum (cough cough), then their criticism would be absolutely valid, if they couldn't do that with the Pro1. NFC payments have been part of smartphones a while ago and for many people have become a selling point nowadays. Just because you don't use it, doesn't mean that an advertised function can be missing or not working. A

  5. I never was without physical keys and thanks to F(x)tec I can keep that tradition 😊 It started in 1998..... Philips Savvy (best SMS sound ever) -> Nokia 3210 (bumblebee ringtone ❤️ ....and it had T9) -> Nokia 5100 (black) (my first phone with color screen...but it looked like a skeleton) -> Sony Ericsson D750i (first phone with camera and (expensive!) internet which it loved to open) -> Sony Ericsson K770i (black) (same as D750i but fancier looking) -> Samsung SGH i200 (First "Smart"phone .... Windows Mobile 6.1) -> Nokia N95 8GB (Affordable Internet at las

  9. Please take this gently, as it's meant, but.......stop acting like you're starving to death because the food wagon hasn't been able to make it through the snowy mountain pass because a mule broke its leg and there was an avalanche, and your isolated 19th-century town in the mountains ran out of food weeks ago. This is a super-awesome device, but it's not like there aren't other things we can use in the meantime. I'm as excited as everyone else, but things happen. I'd rather they get it right than get it rushed. Delays happened, but it's in production, and it's looking like everyone who has ord

  14. Not EskeRahn, but I can tell Bluetooth works but seems to have some issues. Somebody else already reporter of issues pairing with some headset. Today I tried with a bluetooth receiver (Procaster BT-02) which receives bluetooth signal and sends it to my home stereo. Basic connection/pairin works but looks like aptX doesn't work.

  18. This is actually what happened to Fxtec, if there were Credit Card issues some of the preorderes (including me) were manually opted-in to do PayPal. Their account was blocked shortly after, they had to unfreeze the funds with PayPal, which I believe can be a nightmare. PayPal is very consumer-friendly, sure, but a PITA for sellers.

  20. My phones obviously lasts for a very long time, cause I am kind to them. Firstly I had Nokia 5110, then 3210 (behind my brother's business) for just a short time, then Ericsson R520m What a phone that was!!, But it was again second hand after my brothers business and had problems with Bluetooth, so I've bought my first brand new phone and immediately it was the best on the market: Nokia 6600. After a long time I tried Nokia E50, was fine, but sold it earlier to buy brand new E7, what died on USB connector, so Ive bought another one :) And now I am waiting for a Pro1 :) Just thinking that each

  28. I prefer them working on custom builds (or improving their compatibility) instead of trying to provide the quickest updates of a stock system. Most of us will flash a new rom anyways. But I've read somewhere that they are working on Android 10. Also, don't forget that the device was planned to be shipped in mid-september, before Android 10 was published.

  29. I'll take on anyone anytime. I still have a physical keyboard on my Droid 4, and will assuredly not be using anything else until my Pro1 arrives. I'm using it now....I've had lots of practice. :)

  30. OK, not to insult anyone, but how exactly is the ability to pay for your fuel and groceries related to a phone? This is a classic example of allowing one thing in your life to exert too much control over it. I really don't want to get into a huge ethical discussion about this, but certain people here are focusing on utterly non-smartphone features that are not at all innate to the use-case scenario for which a smartphone was built, and complaining that a smartphone can't do stuff which essentially has nothing to do with being a smartphone. Smartphones were made to communicate, not to transfer

  31. I don't think (however, I don't know "today" means which time zone, it is 19:44 here). So, I should be in the second batch as an IGG preorderer and still not received e-mail about it. Also, I think "Will send out fulfillment mails later" statement doesn't mean later in today but maybe later next week. Also they said most of the preorderers they wanted to be in second batch, so there is a high chance you may also. 🙂

  32. Hey, Anyone seen any independent reviews of the Pro1 from reputable media or tech influencers? Paste links here if You come across anything worth a read. @EskeRahn's review I think might qualify as such if we stretch a bit 😉 These are from September, early peeks on pre-production units, but let's use that as a teaser :) https://www.techradar.com/uk/reviews/fxtec-pro1 https://www.stuff.tv/fxtec/pro-1/review https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/fx-tec-pro-1

  33. Nokia 3310 --> Nokia 6230i --> Nokia N900 --> Nokia N900 --> Nokia N900 --> Motorola G6 --> F(x)tec Pro1 once it arrives My wannabe phone was Nokia N950 and I almost bought a Motorola Z or Z2 because of Keyboard Mod (first I wanted a version of Z, then Z2 became available, then maybe almost Z3 but the whole Z series became unnecessary as we lost Keyboard Mod). My 3310, 6230i and Moto G6 were brand new. I bought my first N900 as used device but after years, its eMMC has died. A few months before it died I bought the second N900 which had eMMC fault (so was cheap) and go

  35. Motorola V120, Mot V60, red Sprint flip thing, Treo 650, Treo 700p, Mot E815 + Treo 700p simultaneously, Droid 1, Droid 3, Droid 4, another Droid 4, Pro1 (soon). I've owned a few other things, but these were/are my daily drivers. I've never had a daily driver phone without a physical keyboard of some kind. I have tried (and hated) other devices without them, mostly belonging to friends. I almost prefer 10-key text entry to touchscreen, weirdly. I played with a BB Priv, but it never made it past testing to daily driver. I didn't like working in portrait. If anyone wants it, it's for sale. :)

  36. ...I lost count long ago, it is over twenty years ago... some only lasting half a year before being passed on to someone else. But the later devices has lasted much longer simply due to lack of really better alternatives than what I already had, available in Europe. ......, Nokia N97Mini + Samsung Wave in sunshine!, SonyEricsson (neo) Pro, Iphone 6- with various keyboard cases, BB Priv, Samsung S8- with click on Keyboard, Pro1

  37. HAHA! It's difficult to be consistent. Mega respect for making the effort. :) I highly recommend not using this feature on any device ever, for the reasons we've already discussed. But, c'est la vie. I also highly recommend being patient with the wonderful people at F(x)tec while they iron out these little tiny bugs. I'm sure no one bought the Pro1 specifically to use Google Pay. Keep your old phone in your pocket for that for a minute. LOL!

  42. Well they HAVE made project Treble that should ease upgrades. If I do not remember wrong, any phone launching with Pie HAS to provide Treble, so that should ease the upgrade to 10 significantly.

  45. Capslock behaviour is different tho. Under capslock, all letters are capitlozed until you turn it off, and it doesnt affect characters with a shift function, still have to shift to get them even under capslock. A sticky modifer just acts like it stuck until the next SINGLE keypress, and affects everything, not just capitols. I assume the reason sticky shift isnt working for number symbols on pro1 is cuz regular shift isnt working either, nothing related to sticky.
