Yes. To see what the layout actually produce selecting stock, @Anssi Hannula has added the stock layout for selecting nothing and selecting German here Note that the Geman layout (currently, QX1000_EEA_20200106110245) has a few bugs, as it does not exactly match the yellow prints...

First: Thanks to @VaZso for explaining it better than I did. Let us look at it in a mechanical way: If you have no drivers loaded, and you press the third key in the first row you get a "2". If you press the key below it in the second row you get a "Q", no matter what is printed in that key. That is what I mean by them being electronically identical. The Pro1 does not 'know' if it got the qwertY or the qwertZ print. And by default assumes qwertY So if we want a "W" matching the qwertZ print, we need something that does this mapping, and that is what selecting "German" on the lay

The hardware keytops/prints are different (primarily shifted). But the electronic is the same. if I use a Pro1 with qwertZ print, without explicitly selecting "German" it acts as a qwertY (thus the keys not returning what is printed on them). See e.g. this guide. I wish they had added some magic flag, that said what print it got and handled it a deep level, but for simplicity they have not. So we ALL got a "Letter shifted QWERTY" device. Some of us with prints that does not match that, that needs a keymap to match the print. And this keymap can be either "German" or one of the opti

Ebay VS buying direct: Is this for real?

Virus discussion moved over to the other thread here -
No. the hardware of qwertZ and qwertY are identical, it is merely the print on the keytops that are different. (This is why entering the initial password on a qwertZ model preferably would be done using the touch/fake keyboard)

Select another layout supplied by FinQWERTY (in stock Geman the question mark is currently put on SHIFT + sharp S, and the yellow symbols on E, R, M and Ü are not working, hope they fix it soon)

Have you tried to raise your voice, like if you were at a meeting? In my experience it is when the volume gets below a certain level it is cut off. This obviously is not a solution, but if this generally is a workaround, it is 'merely' a need of adjusting some limit somewhere....

Let us help F(x)tec with some show casing! I hope everybody will flash it around and spread the word to everybody they think might be just a little bit interested, or might know one that is... At Crackberry a guy was asking where he could try it hands on. So if you are willing to be contacted by someone that wants a hands on before buying, here is a tread to post your Country, state/region, nearest larger town, Then people can create an account in here and send a PM to arrange further. Please mark the geography in bold and/or a larger font, to make i

Interesting, let me just tag @Waxberry to make it more likely that he sees it. 🙂

Stop "Configure Physical Keyboard" prompt?
EskeRahn replied to archseraphim's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
If you like the the stock setup, there is an odd way. You can Install FinQwerty that extends the list of layouts to the system. But if you select the "None" there, you will get the stock with no modifications (Hence the None) It is made for this exact purpose, to have The Stock, and perhaps other languages, that you can cycle through with Ctrl-Space. Swiftkey is also an interesting app for the Pro1 enhancing the physical keyboard by offering word predictions - but that is another story.... -
Let us make things crystal clear: ADD: And just as I thought this was simple, there is a fourth: an even larger P20 lite (2019) ...sigh...

You might want to consider two small holes in the leather. One for the secondary mic on the back near the cameras, and one for the notification LED.

When I saw the title and text I expected an image of an aPple Iphone ...... 😇😇😇

Swiftkey can be there as long as Gboard is chosen active I get the bug Also if I disable gboard and selects "Key Mapper Keyboard" as active (that is no virtual keyboard....), I still gets the bug. Sheets on mine insists on portrait. Forcing it landscape did not matter. It thius seems swiftkey does something positive, rather than gboard doing something negative....??? So it somehow seems limited to Pro1 without Swiftkey selected active - how odd!

It is interesting that "Meta" is sticky on Alpha. I'm not sure what the Meta is INTENDED to do, but one might consider letting the yellow arrow be Meta and not Fn to get the Sticky functionality....
-
Thanks, sad on the Fn... does the same go for Ctrl? I'm afraid that it would require them to not rely on the stock keyboard control to get Fn sticky... Too bad - but most likely a small modification, as Google already got the other ones sticky.

End of production for TCL-made BlackBerry phones
EskeRahn replied to Rob. S.'s topic in General Discussion
Apart from the keyboard being cramped in the wrong direction I loved my Priv. I really liked their keyboard app, getting a lot out of their keyboard. I never used any of the classic BB stuff. Just disabled their Hub and all the rest, I just weeks ago tried to see how long the Idle stamina still was with WiFi on, but no sim inserted. I got to 400 hours or 17 days, before reaching 15%... So tired of all the BS of it having poor stamina, it was just all the junk people had installed, not the device. Oh - and it is the original battery, that has just been treated reasonable well! Su -
If not, others can... 😇

Does not sound right, contact support and hear what they suggests.

If I install Swiftkey and DISABLE Gboard on the Pro1 then Space works fine in sheets, either pressed or emulated. Also tried to send the same on a Samsung S8- and here it DOES give a space. So the bug is more subtle than not respecting the keycode at all. Seems related to the keyboard driver also?? Anyone with another device with Pie that are using a BT keyboard could check that combo? Or just the emulated? Preferably a pixel or Android One device with no added keyboard driver, to have it as close to stock as possible, and with Gboard.

Could be that they confused the model and sent it for e.g. a P20, and if so you obviously should return it.
