I see. I feared it was worse with the extra layer. Cutting out the creditcard-part is likely to reduce the thickness and at the least reduce the closing issues. On the simple cases I'm using I 'broke' the edges slightly (cardboard beneath the fake leather) to ease the bend. Similar might be possible on yours.

How thick is the whole thing closed? The simple flip cases (with removed credit card holder) I'm currently using is 21mm thick (157mm long and 81 mm wide at the clasp, 79mm elsewhere)

Source Code Nature of Specialized Launcher
EskeRahn replied to virnir's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Similar here. I do not recall having needed a reset at all on the retail unit since I got it in November. (I obviously have reset the earlier units more recent flashing Sailfish and different versions of LineageOS though) -
Thanks, moved your comment to the locked thread

Just got the above in the mail today, and it is a good fit in both portrait and landscape AND has the benefit mounted in a car to fit almost any phablet with a short edge between 64 and 88mm. To use while charging in portrait, I will suggest to make a small cut in one of the feet. (Note that in portrait the 'toes' does not catch the edge of the display-part of a Pro1, but it still can not fall out)

Rant: Why the F**** does F(x)tec not fix simple bugs?!
EskeRahn replied to daniel.schaaaf's topic in Support
I wish I had an answer. I'm a bit frustrated too, and would even be willing to PAY to get a few of the most annoying software bugs fixed. But it IS a small company with few people. And even if they wished to do so I doubt the various licensing would allow them to put things out open source without breaking various certifications and/or licensing. But would be awesome if they let people help them - starting with some of the things the Lineage guys already have tracked down and fixed.... -

That definitely should have been on my list of options too, though that as @Rob. S. pointed out, limits widgets to square-grid usage -
Source Code Nature of Specialized Launcher
EskeRahn replied to virnir's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Though I like the versatility of Nova, I find that it really stinks in assuming the same grid layout in 1:2 portrait and 2:1 landscape. Here the stock launcher solution of seeing it as two (roughly) equally sized blocks, seems like a much more clever solution. A few launchers offers more or less independent layouts. That obviously has a lot of benefits, but means you will need to set things up twice. But most launchers (including Nova) that at all handles landscape take the lazy route of just squeezing and stretching the grid - apart from looking horrible, it also makes widgets more or less us -
Sad, thought those bugs were ironed out. But thanks for reporting. Let us hope they are reading @Erik @Waxberry The fix is to use FinQwerty and select "German for physical qwertZ".

That is odd, I have not seen that on stock for long, but I do get it for the newer iterations of LineageOS unfortunately

Postal services being too lazy to actually deliver, and coming up with a false excuse is unfortunately not limited to FedEx. I have had several others do the same over the years here in Denmark. Usually they then dump it at some pick-up point they find suitable, that can be 10Km away. A couple of times I even had it delivered at a small island, as this was the geographically closest pick-up point - if you are Jesus or a bird....

Sound very plausible, let us hope some with deeper knowledge on Android reads this and can come up with a hint. Otherwise it seems almost certain that a factory restore would fix it, but that is of course rather tedious.

Maybe Lineage is the way to go for you? These guys seems VERY attentive to suggestions that can fix bugs. Have a look in this thread:

Glad to hear. Though we (now) know that you did not need to take the hinges apart in the first place. So will be easier for the next one that needs to open it. 😉

Wired headphones take 8 seconds to be recognized?

Yes, most people have the intuitive - but wrong - perception that disabling a process also stops it. You need to explicitly stop a process after disabling it. see e.g. this -

EskeRahn replied to ivoanjo's topic in Bug Reports
Yes, sound like a factory reset would be a drastic measure. Let us hope that the restart following a future software upgrade might de the trick. Just a thought/guess. When you killed a lot of apps and reinserted the headphones, did that start/wake any additional process? If so killing that and clearing its cache&data might be worth at try. -
Can you record/play sound? That is, is it 'limited' to calls? If so I would try to force stop and clear the data of the phone app, and see if it solves it. Does a SIM from a different carrier change anything?

You might also try killing stuff running that does not have to run. Settings, System, Advanced, Developer options (*), Running Services. (*) If yo do not see "Develop options", go to Settings, System, About phone, Click Build numerous times. Here is what I usually leave running: -

EskeRahn replied to ivoanjo's topic in Bug Reports
It is clearly a software bug somehow. Note how the icon appears (but quickly disappears again) when you plug in. So I would say that it is extremely likely that a factory restore would fix it. BUT before walking that route, you might want to see if there could be any app installed that somehow could be affiliated, that it might be worth trying to uninstall (temporarily). Making a backup of everything can be quite tedious, and restoring everything might reintroduce the bug, as we have no clue where it is... I tried googling to see if someone has the similar problem on other hardware, -
Well those that do not find a hardware keyboard essential (or at the least very important), would never even dream of looking at this, so comparing it with things without a real keyboard really does not make much sense. This is a niche product. For a mass product selling in the millions the development cost distributed per unit is negligible, but for a niche product it is a totally different story. We know from other threads (custom declarations) that the raw hardware price per unit produced is around $300 (Again: low quantities gives high prices), and that is BEFORE adding the heavy

Thanks, moved to the closed info-thread.

Yes it is purely cosmetic only, and can easily be hidden with a cover (or film). I also noticed at the lower end on the last photo that it seems like a patch have been 'worn-off' too. So though sad, at the least nice to know that it seems rather easy to scuff.
-
Interesting to see that the back gets scuffed that easily 🤢 But thanks for sharing 👍. Glad I got mine in a shell (well flip case, but the back is protected all the same)

How odd! It takes less than 1 sec here. (different headset though)
