Uh I thought 'all' the first batch got them. I got a mail a few days after I got the Retail Unit, saying that they would be sent shortly, and that I should expect them at my door within about a week. (But I declined them)

The scroll-bar slider in e.g. the Apps-list is 20 pixel wide, with the display&font size I am using, so if you are extremely lucky, you might get it to work with 19, but 10 is more realistic, and well that is about the size they already have disabled...

...And you find that mentioned in the middle of my reply to the OP... 😜

Well though I find the idea of your extensions interesting, none of them are some I missed, so no reason for my sake to make a non-shifted Danish variant. Not quite. Only the two Shifts and the two Ctrl are hardwired in parallel, the two YellowArrow keys are electrically separated. On the talk about shift versus yellow arrows, I have a hard time to understand why anyone would have any problems with them doing the same on all character keys but the letter keys. Why would anyone expect say Sh+2 to return "2" ? or Sh+[ to send "[" ?

I bought this in a couple of variants, And well that was a waste of money IMHO... 1) The case-sliding is not enough to get in when down, and to expose the flash/torch when up. It moves 30mm (would have needed 40mm) 2) The case is BIG! Mounted 90x165x30 versus the 82xx157x23 of the simple flip cases 3) The hard plastic 'claw' gripping the phone, will require modifications to not grip the power button partly, and to allow access to the fingerprint scanner, 4) No side and end protection, except the parts covered by the claw On the plus side, it is symmetric , so it can be

I made the above halfway as a joke at getting more grip, but it really has grown on me, and a shorter piece is all it need to do the trick. It is especially useful with a flip-case, as it would be a nuisance in&out of a sleeve or pocket if exposed. If you place a piece of just say 2-3 x 15-20 mm above the fingerprint reader, you will be able to unlock an lift in one movement. Touch, await the haptic feedback, and lift.

Interesting, though not something suitable for me.

This is primarily a user-to-user forum, so do not expect that they see all threads. I would suggest that you ask your insurance company what informations they want, and then ask FxTec if they can/will provide what is requested. Try the support link https://www.fxtec.com/support/

Well I have learned to use it without the edge being an issue also, but we have to admit that due to the need of pushing at one side and&or pulling up at the other, the Pro1 has a higher likelihood of accidental edge-interaction than ordinary slabs with edge-screens.

No.... I can reduce it to around 40 to get access the the menu, but need to get down to near zero to access the scroll bar. So It is not really useful for me though the principal idea is fine.

The "Edge Null" is a workaround that comes with cost and risk, see also this

I just love the helpfulness of people in here, thanks. 🤗

Though this technically works, no 5) should be taken with more than a pinch of salt, as this comes at a cost&risk - that for some will be acceptable and for others not. 5a) Reduced functionality. Depending on the selected "Display size" & "Font size" (under normal Settings, Display, Advanced) you will have troubles accessing the standard vertical ellipsis top right menu selector in many apps, unless you reduce the border size - and reducing it obviously make the app less useful also. The scroll-bar slider in e.g. the Apps list or your browser will also be inaccessible,

We know from the help others thread that @Serolfic is in the UK, so maybe he would like to help. But note that the seller does not say that they ONLY send to the OK, it just says So I have sent a mail asking for shipping charges. As it is just a matter of a plain envelope, I guess it can not be much. I mean should it be bent so we loose a few stickers it does not matter at all...

Only some see those reboots, I have not seen it at all. And from another thread it seems like it might be related to carriers using certain network bands. and when the carrier passes the phone between those bands. One have reported that he gets it when he travels a certain route by train. They did have an issue on an earlier version of the software where running particular programs made the phone reboot, but that was fixed early December, if I recall correctly.

You only see this issue if you boot password/pin starts with one of 7, U, J, N plus Period Up and Enter, thanks @FlyingAntero (of course letters shifted for those on the shifted keyboards, it follows the physical keys). (Or obviously if you have disabled the security, or use the touch screen for it) I stand corrected, see @FlyingAntero below, it is indeed not limited to boot. I'm a bit puzzled, that I have only seen it after boots. Must normally be doing something with other keys so I have not noticed.

As often with compares, one can choose things to get a result.... You forget two important things in judging the weight compared to the old ones. The (display) size and the materials. You are comparing with devices with screen that are a third, and less than half of the Pro1. Did the two have metal backs (I do not recall) If I compare it to a Sony XZ2 Premium I could claim that it is not heavy at all(!), 7% larger display plus a keyboard, and just 10g heavier... Sure the Sony has a 10% larger battery and an IP rating. But my point is that it is hard to do a fair compare, as there are

I can not see the logic in that. It is clearly much more a nice-to-have than need-to-have feature, so obviously it would not be at the top of the stack of issues for fixing. That some reports random reboots is one of the much more important things to handle. But that does not mean that we in anyway can conclude whether or not it will be handled once the more grave issues have been handled. I like @SchattengestaIt find it likely that it will be handled, but of course there are no guarantees here, unless officially stated.

I have been using Open Camera for years, and can highly recommend it. There is one issue with the Pro1: HDR does not work well. There seems to be a bug in the API delivering images at the requested ISO, so when Open Camera then tries to stitch things together we get some weird halos. I saw it a lot on the tough motif of my white dog. Open Camera has no problems with this on other phones i tried. And the Pro1 can do HDR just fine in their build in app. So must be a parameter translation issue in the API. My GUESS some confussion between linear and logarithmic scales in their implementation of

It is a different sensor,in the display part, close above the volume up.

Experimented with a slightly different approach that might be helpful for those that do not like any of the other techniques. Simply applyied a tiny strip of high friction tape at the back edge, with this it is so easy that you can even lift up using your nose(!) ...Yes I actually tried it...

I see I get some records on the mail server rejecting mails from them with an "SPF fail" I have reported it to them, but have not received anything back. I do not know how many of their mails are affected, but if you have access to the mail servers log, you might check for some from a fxtec.com subdomain, and if so those could be the missing mails...

Do not get me wrong, far from all Russian apps are bad. But this could easily get a heated political thing, so let that rest.

OK. But side loading obscure Russian software with 175 positive votes.... Not going to happen. I have a very strong feeling that the SF is going to be overwritten with LOS as soon as I find the time for it....

Afaik only available for older Sailfish, or?
