See the text written in red in what you quoted. 😥

It is clearly having several issues that needs to be adjusted when used as speaker phone, as discussed elsewhere.

Well I hope too, but do not know.

Hmm I see this as a feature not a bug.... It can make a lot of sense to put the device on the desk with the bottom pointing towards you. It would be rather odd if the far speaker was used. And it is also dangerous if it is the one closest to the ear used, if you pick up the phone from the table during a pause in the conversation and accidentally forget it is in speaker mode... As long as they can handle any feed-back between the close speaker and microphone, it is the better option IMHO. So using the far speaker I would see as a potential workaround for handling lacking de-cou

THE OTA have been Temporarily suspended, as it had a bug breaking the "SafetyNet", fix should be on it's way quickly.

Yes we can get two results, both bad:

Chen found this reply that might explain things....

It has worked before, answering red, and later green after it was fixed. But now:

on the bootloader screen it says Device state - Locked. But also Secure boot - no ADD, for old status a few weeks ago, see this https://community.fxtec.com/topic/2521-notice-regarding-getting-google-safetynet-certified-software/?do=findComment&comment=44278

Mine say IS certified.

It is not happy.... (Though it still is marked as certified in the Android Market, Settings)

I tried to make it in a large font and different colour.... https://community.fxtec.com/topic/2849-new-ota-update-stamped-2020-03-04/?do=findComment&comment=46346

OK, then we got two pointers... 😇🤣

Sorry, moved it all over here, as it is not related to the specific OTA, but more general usable 🙂

Yup, and I did not. I would have expected the fine mesh of a microwave oven to be enough too, but it clearly is not. I could see the screen through the mesh, and no signal loss.

Tried microwave oven, did not work. Then tried a metal biscuit container, did not work! Then tried a somewhat heavy cast iron pot with a cast iron lid. THAT killed all signals 💀😁

It would be easier to read if you sorted them chronologically... *LOL*

If it can be made in transparent TPU, one for the top could be interesting too. 🙂 How good is the grip, could the bottom part hold without the 'lips' at the long edges and only on the short? That would allow a top part to have lips on the long edges, and not on the short, so the whole thing can close without the lips conflicting. Perhaps it should be made not to fit perfect, but have material tension help holding it in place in the direction without lips. Like this very rough principal sketch.

Thanks for the warnings. Too bad so many programs try to 'be smart' and 'know better' to make sure the user gets a bad experience... 😖

Thanks to @Raksura for posting this in another thread, but let me put it here too, for more to see the progress.

Within a few hours hours, I checked before manually installing this too, and I'm a little confused why it was shared as a preview, so shortly before release. I guess something went smoother in the release than expected. 🤗

You got it offered as OTA update without manual download already?

Remember that they are small, so they easily will be pushed aside when a larger customer wants stuff. Hard to fight the giants. Even though they may already be using multiple sources for standard parts, their volumes are so small that doing so for specialised parts, would add heavy surcharges.

Just a hint, by editing the URL you can do a more accurate filtering than through their UI, e.g I have used this: https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nHeightMin=153&nHeightMax=155&nWidthMin=73&nWidthMax=74&nThicknessMin=6&nThicknessMax=8 (whole mm only)
