That is interesting! In the guide a lot of cables needs heating to detach. Great if they have found other types of adhesive, not needing that.

That just show that these guys are really great. Thumbs up for the nice handling F(x)tec. And thumbs up to you for wanting to provide us with some photos. There is a disassembly manual (see post by @netman above), that might be helpful, though it is made for the more complex version without the corner stickers, so less heat/gun should be needed for the real stuff. It would be great if you could describe what has changed, that is where the manual do not match.

Yes, those that got the 20200304 (on Oct. security patch level) has problems, those that got the 20200306 (On Sep.) does not. I hope it wont be long before we get a new update uniting the two, on a newer security level.

What about the cable... Will that be freely exposed on the underside when opened? It can not be seen here on the rendering so maybe it curls up under the keyboard somehow? -
....My thoughts exactly...

Yes, and that would require a bit extra on the design of the keyboard not to be problematic. On the thinkpad yoga's they have taken that a step up by having a grid lifting between the keys and physically locking the keys(!) when opened to tablet... -

I agree hat it clearly looks like it will be a solution hitting a larger audience than their current Cosmo. I still think they would be better of giving their Cosmo a simple double hinge, so the screen could flip over (Like e.g. the Lenovo Yoga). I can not see how this new complex mechanism will bring them anything a double hinge wouldn't. -

Even the portrait keyboards are aware that you must leave some side bezels to allow reaching in thumb typing, without accidental presses of the keys at the edges. And on the other hand, we would really need to curl ours thumb to press the lower left Ctrl without shifting the grip. I'm not convinced. It could be a prototype-issue, but the whole sliding-lowering-tilting mechanism looks terrible complex and fragile. But sure they might be able to improve substantially on that before a final product. see shortly after the 1 minute mark here for the mechanism -
I'm not quite sure what you mean be a "desktop stand", do you mean like a charging cradle? or just a mount like a dashboard car-mount? if the last, many car mounts have a common size ball head, and you can take the holding part and attach to a dashboard-part rather than an air-vent part. The cheap gravity landscape holder I mentioned a few time in the car mount thread allows to use the Pro1 either opened or closed and comes with a dashboard mount, that you could adhere to a plate, or directly to the desk for a fixed position.

app Fx Service, smart case for Pro1
EskeRahn replied to Slion's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
So now the .8 in the link matches 😜 https://slions.net/resources/fx-service.8/ -
My GUESS would be that the flicker could be a change to an app that somehow does no go to foreground and you are thrown back. What happens if you do NOT release the ALT? That should let you navigate the tasks-switcher with Tab or shift+Tab, until selecting on release.

I use it, but would not characterise it as "much", no.
-
Never seen that. Is it related to the apps active on the list? Does touch app/switching work when you see it?
-
It is actually attached, it is just a little hard to click. 🤣

My preferred wallpaper is attached.... 😇 I named it Black_1x2.png

I think the gravity idea is the best. Unfortunately most only do either landscape or portrait. And the landscape ones are not that common out there. I have found just two claiming to do BOTH though. I found this but also this kids friendly design. For both I assume the feet needs to be modified for the USB plug in portrait The pure landscape I only found in one version, e.g. sold here. Many of the portrait ones will interfere with the buttons and/or the USB plug, so a bit of search and trial&error can be expected. Ordered this.

Sounds like yet another Google app that should be avoided... 🙄

Which browser are you using on your Pro1?
EskeRahn replied to Slion's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Feel the same way. Tried installing Dolphin that looks promising. Only to experience on install that a browser claiming to be about privacy, not just requests but requires you to give it access to location... So uninstalled before ever trying it. DuckDuckGo looks interesting too, unfortunately the build in AdBlocker does not seem very effective though, and it does not even offer a "Block Element". To add to that I was a bit surprised to see it claiming to have stopped three 'ads' on my own tiny ad-free wordpress blog - not quite sure what it was blocking though... And clicking the ca -

@Slion Found a fix! I can MERGE two threads, and that goes for polls too (loosing the old votes obviously) So hid the communication on it to not confuse. But for the benefit of any other wanting to make a poll here a 'summary': -
