  1. Well the problem here is that the current Sailfish build allows you to select and accept both date and time, but the entered values are immediately ignored and replaced by the old date and time. So either this option should be removed, and it should use a NTP-server OR it should be repaired. Obviously the optimal would be that the "Automatic update" could use EITHER the cellular time stamp OR a NTP-server. But do not get me wrong, as it will be rare that people flash sailfish without access to cellular net. Once it has been initialized correctly, you can remove the SIM, and the clock

    Trust me, you are not alone.... 😇

    Well strictly the battery comes with some electronical components, so in principle one battery could send out substantial electric noise, that the original did not. Not very likely to say the least though.
  4. Tried on another Pro1. Automatic update of the time works, if it got a cellular connection. You have to select manual first to set the time-zone, but you can not set the time/date manually, but automatic works. I was a little surprised to see their store, with so few apps and so few downloads. How many sailfish devices are active 10K?
  5. Just tried to install LineageOS, and it went much smoother than I had hoped. The guide was 100% correct, no guessing needing, and everything went perfectly smooth. (Yes yes, a few documented bugs are still there), So big kudos to @tdm and others that have been involved, awesome job. 😎😎😎
  6. Ah! That would be a good idea, and reach a broader audience. Actually the Google translate is quite readable, so might not be that hard to adjust it where it fails. And yes indeed robust and sturdy would both be fitting IMHO.
  7. So if someone says to you it take "a while" to fix your car, you expect that to mean at the least four weeks? If so I can please you that the Pro1 is only a while delayed...
  8. It is just in your personal interpretation that it "superseded" anything... It could just as well be read as a confirmation, that indeed it had been extended, compared to the original stop that was noticed June 17th. But certainly I agree that more clear communication would have been better, also in this case. And things get more muddy as 17th and 19th are just a few days after they showcased the earphones on twitter June 14th, where it would have been a perfect opportunity to say to us that it was close to last chance to get them free with the pre-orders.
  9. Nice and thorough review, thanks. 😁 A tiny detail in the conclusion, that may be a translation error. The translation says "rugged", many would expect that to include some IP-rating. So maybe add the lack of that as a Con, so people do not get the wrong impression.

    Yeah good question. We will have to see when one is disassembled. I have been unable to find anything matching. But could well be I just do not know where/how to look.
  11. Well as the Pro1 is so hard to get replaced, I think a little extra care might be a good idea.... And actually the yellow leather-look one is rather nice looking, so If I could get one that has the right quality in real leather, I might stick with it.... I guess it should be stiff leather that is reduced in thickness near the bend, so it bends smoothly.
  12. And the funny thing is that I never used a flip case before. 😊 And I'm not sure I will keep using the flip-cases when the Pro1 get into general availability. Though I might have gotten used to it by then... 😇 Earlier I just used a simple protective shell giving a better grip, starting with the Ip6- that was slippery as soap but actually to get a KB-case. And later I made a better DIY solution. And a case was also needed to use a KB on the Samsung S8- see this
  13. And on June 19 it said " Limited offer. Extended for one more week" (see this) so that would put the end a while later, not a month later, and hence not July 12. And yes it was unclear from when that week was counted. June 17? June 18? June 19?. So sometimes late June, or if they were very kind stretched to early July, not mid July. Maybe someone ordering around late June early July can tell if their order was with the Earphones? As we do not seem to have saved info on the exact cut.
  14. I think we have somewhere found the VID and PID of the device, though I do not recall what they are. But this is a general file for the device and if it went in that way, and the file does not exist, it should use the generic.kl as I understand the Location section at the top of this So I will guess that it is is not sending a scancode as a keycode, but rather fake a keycode, similar to what I guess a fake keyboard like GBoard does. Otherwise we should have been able to look up reversely and sees what generate the Fn F3 and F4, and that was what we tried... Of course it COULD be
  15. (I just waned to make sure that the bug from the current stock has not been copied over to Lineage. With stock you can try to close on say a toothpick, and see you can activate keys even if the slider is closed, this means that squeezing the device in say a pocket can press a key)
  16. Yeah, I think it was a little gesture appreciating her getting in more than a handful of new orders from her network, If I remember other posts right.
  17. We should consider this in the how-to-open thread.... Another option is to add some of the adhesive anti-slip tape intended for stairs (black or transparent) e.g. this And cut a roughly 2-3 x 150mm piece (Use a hobby knife or similar, as the sand kills the blade, do not use a good pair of scissors...), and put along the back edge. (so it does somewhat belong in the casing thread...) This will give you a VERY easy lift. (The same material is GREAT for compact cameras with slippery surfaces like Sony RX100 III) Mine ended on 3mm+ and could/should have been less.
  18. I think the cut for this offer were somewhere end of June or early July. They originally stopped it on June 17 (+/-) but then extended it a (few?) week(s).
  19. Rememeber that Ctrl and YellowArrow are next to each other on both sides, so the combo is easy to do with one finger. That is why FinQwerty uses Ctrl+YA as a 'doublet' of Sh+YA

    We know the numbers - but just can not find them..
  21. As said in other posts I think the problem here is simple physics: The counterweight of the vibrator is a standard one, designed for a 2-3 times lighter phone. So they would have needed a larger counter-weight and thus a larger motor, adding weight to the whole system (and as these would likely not be standard components, also additional costs)... But I struggle too, especially walking. As I 99.9% of the time use my phone with vibrate only. I have not even set the ringtone on my Pro1, so do not know how it would sound....
  22. Hmm. Mine does, so sounds like something conflicting. Does sliding open the keyboard wake the display as it should, or only pressing power?
