We know how chargebacks work. But there is a big difference between how they are done and what is in the law. This is how it works for you, but this could be different for every lender/country combination. Nobody has any doubts that you CAN file a chargeback. My doubt is that you are entitled to one. And that could happen here. Just because one Person was successful doesn't mean it is law. I guess in most countries that chargeback is not backed by law. Fxtec may not have done anything about it, because they just don't want to fuck people up. After all they are not scams. But

I still have the AOSPX 9.0 tree. They were working on rebasing 10.0 at the time I was building it, so I never did an AOSPX 10.0 build. Which do you guys want, 9 or 10? There are pretty much no changes in 9 since the initial build.

Exaclty, and the bottom line is, if a charge back worked, there is a not all to small chance that it worked because fxtec did allow it to work.

And the interesting words here are "goods" and "purchase", as we with crowdfunding do not purchase a defined product. So we would be talking the quality of the investment in potentially hoping to get a specified product as being the product. And that will be (even) harder to evaluate and thus also to dispute being "as promised". Note also that there aren't a fifth bullet for regret of investments or gifts, so this is clearly intended to handle purchasing defined products. So a pre-order of a product would be included, but not investments including crowdfunded perks for a product.

Yes, I don't see any language referring to crowdfunding, so I assume the credit lender would regard them as pre-orders rather than investments. So a change in date of delivery and specs may qualify for a chargeback. That being said every lender is going to have their own internal policies in how they view crowdfunding, so it's impossible to say with any certainty. As for whether people are entitled to a refund, that's an ethical question every person needs to decide for themselves. I'm personally fine with the changes, so I won't be seeking refund. So I have absolutely no idea whe

Hello. I am selling my Fxtec Pro1 for 500 euros. It is new, never used, in the original packaging. I bought it for 754 USD (=626 euros). Possible exchange with a new samsung Galaxy Fold. I'm selling it because I received a QWERTY keyboard but it doesn't suit me. Please find pictures below. Shipping against payment from Switzerland. Best regards

I definitely agree that crowd funding isn't the same as a purchase. The question is how does the credit lender view them? If there's no explicit mention of crowdfunding in their chargeback policy, it's entirely possible they'll view it as a purchase instead of an investment. That's what I meant when I said the credit lenders have all the power, since their decision is all that matters regardless of how we or IGG define an investment versus a purchase. And yes from a business point of view, it makes sense that Fxtec wouldn't want to scare away potential investors by revealing information p

I have a bachelors in Computing and Information Systems (pointless jack-of-all trades master-of-none degree) which I barely used and for years the only computer I use at work is a CNC controller. I've never had a keyboard phone and have one desktop at home which I've not 'played with' for years so no need for sysadmin stuff there either... I'm here because I hate touchscreens, especially typing on them, and covering half the screen (or more with ever-wider resolutions) just makes it worse. Phones are too big anyway so may as well get one that spares my sanity and can be fixed easily to

Thanks, I was about to search for it, now that I am a real active LineageOS-on-Pro¹ user, but probably would never have found it by myself!

Just for the record, my first OTA update did update the security build and went smoothly, too, so if they would be the cause, they at least don't crash all the time.

yesss i know...a have donated few months ago

I think the last issue was in the corrupted update file which I downloaded in 3 parts because of the poor wifi, not in 1 chunk as usual.

Sad to hear. But hopefully at the least someone will buy your spare display.. 🙂

I do quite like the phones these make been tempted by one of the jelly/atom my self just as something to use when I go out and don't want a big phone with me.

Yesterday's OTA installed without any problem, even if previous one crashed the updater.

Installed flawlessly via OTA here, too.

As someone who has one phone in daily use I wouldn't have backed the campaign now if I didn't need a new one until next year so ASAP is good even if it could have been better (everything will always be better in the future, except phones which are already too big and still growing - another reason not to wait)

You absolutely can do a chargeback, but there's a risk that not only will you lose the dispute, but you could end up getting banned by both the service and even the credit card lender. For example, I mistakenly sent some money to someone through zelle. I called up my bank and asked them if it would be possible to revert the transaction because I had done it by mistake. Now apparently, you cannot reverse a zelle transaction unless there was fraud and I explicitly asked her if could in this instance despite no fraud occuring. Bless her soul, the representative had no idea about these rules and h

So if I give (or lent) you some money and regretted that weeks later for what ever reason. I'm allowed to do a "chargeback" of that too? Sounds pretty absurd, if it is not limited to something I buy. That would certainly be a sure way to make people prefer cash payments...

....I can not help the feeling that you might have put more time into developing software for the Pro1 since autumn than Idealte....

Hello, My replacement display is available (Elephone U), don't need it anymore, I have planned to replace my screen but I lost my phone...it's 100% new, in original package. I have seen about drivers problem with spare screen, but if I understand correctly @EvilDragon has found a solution (as always 🙂) So I can send it, delivery costs are 12,90euros for Europe and 6,45euros for France. If anyone can use it, feel free making me an offer (I have to buy some beers ) and I send it. I can also send it from Schwitzerland. (Basel) Regards, G.
