Well I too think the stickers could have looked better, but if our complaints are down to the look of some stickers, I think that could be seen as they have done a very good job... :-)
-
They are hard, and I'm pretty sure they are cosmetic only. Should you damage (or loose) one of them I think it would be easy to replace them by any other sticker, home cut. There are also seven circular stickers on the back of the display part with similar purpose.

I'm sure those that have a preferred launcher currently, is likely to stick with it, if it supports landscape and perhaps keyboard navigation. (I see the added launcher more as a needed patch of poor native Android support, than something offering some fantastic extra functionality) PS It offers the option of launching selected apps on long keypress. A feature I also had on the BB Priv, and never used. Personally I would have preferred the Windows way of jumping to the first icon matching the typed. (It ignores short press of letters) I have not spent much time looking for alternative

I tried to get some info on the software for the keyboard for half a year, to give the community some software... Never got any useful info But it turns out that it is actually a standard thing build deep into android. Controlled in two simple text files See https://source.android.com/devices/input/key-layout-files https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent https://source.android.com/devices/input/key-character-map-files It is used by FinQwerty, that works really fine on the Pro1, see http://android.onse.fi/finqwerty/pro1.html. ADD: Using the epp KeyEvent, it c

If I order today, when will I approximately receive the device?

Or at the least indicates how they value communication. -
Hi, everyone, I have posted this info in various threads, but think I better have to give it a separate thread. Back in early July.the forum got hit by massive amounts of spam, so they tightened the system so all posts need moderation. This was supposed to be a temporary fix, until a better solution was found - and well we are all still waiting... Apart from delays in being published it also has some other side effects... For one thing it is hard for a moderator to FIND what needs moderation in the first place! (more on that later) But once a thread is opened, and the pending co

I do not think that there are any other ones actively moderating in here... EDIT Moved content to separate thread Or in short: it is lacking promotion, not demotion that is going on... -

Actually the FCC stuff (though the same) are easier to read over here https://fcc.report/FCC-ID/2AUCLQX1000 . -

Unfortunately we are left at guessing as they are definitely better of producing a great device, than at communicating. I too feel really frustrated about the info (or lack of it). -

If you look at the bottom of this page, https://fccid.io/2AUCLQX1000 it has been granted! So it must have been some trifle stuff they where missing as the date of the application and the grant is the same. [attachment file=37506] (and similar for the other bands clicking the different TCB tabs) -

No function for that in the forum (*) ... Though we do got a delete function, but I have not killed any of this paranoid stuff, as I do understand the paranoia following the lack of staff activity. I do not understand why they prefer support directly, and to have this primarily a user-to-user forum. Especially before people got the devices, as it will be more questions than answers. (*) Though a thread is unfortunately no longer 'promoted' automatically by new activity, see e.g. this -
Just tried to insert two SIMs, and I can sms from one to the other, I can also call both numbers from a third line. So both SIMs are active simultaneously :)

As discussed in other threads, hopefully there will be enough market to more than one type of keyboard slider. Personally I would take a tilting slider over a straight one any day. I have had both, and much preferred the tilt of the N97mini over the straight Xperia (Neo) Pro. The N97mini had a horrible display that was useless in sunshine though. -
I think that combining the colours will not be easy., but the combined letters could be in same colour, perhaps with different stroke, like the original idea. [attachment file=14623]

If you do a search for termux in here, you will see that I already checked. And it seems to work just fine https://www.fxtec.com/forums/search/termux/

I think it is mainly a design issue, as it could easily look a mess with a lot of print on the keys, and also the print could become so small so not everyone can read it. Already it is not easy to see the difference between "," and "." and between ";" and ":"

APTX codec support over bluetooth in Pro 1
EskeRahn replied to Krzysieq's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
If I do the same check on a Samsung S8- also on Pie, it is NOT on the list, so they seem to check before presenting the list. ;) -
On the μ (03BC) or µ (00B5) I would say that though handy for us nerds, it is hardly worth a print. That is not to say that the functionality should not be there pressing the combination. And that goes for all 1,2,3 By 1 you break the 'rule' Erik put up, so I think you should add to the list one with the three to the left and bottom in white, and the upper right the symbols in yellow. I would say that is better than your one (But of course biased as a Dane) Something like this quick copy and paste: [attachment file=37262] YES I know these would be rather cramped and thus less than the ot

Yeah, love it too... On the keyboard in either direction. I got the click on keyboard for the Samsung S8-, and found though it is rather nice for writing longer messages, for the quick replies I just used the touch keyboard swype-style. I expect to do the same with the Pro1. Only use the keyboard when I need it, but not for the "OK C U" type of replies.

Yup it is there, just checked. :) followed guide here https://www.headphonezone.in/blogs/the-indian-audiophile/how-to-activate-aptx-hd-on-your-smartphone-in-5-easy-steps Not only aptX, but aptX HD and the newer aptX Adaptive too (There is also aptX TWS+ audio) -
Also remember this interesting design-idea at idkul.com from 2010(!) that was never produced This would be even more interesting today with a folding screen... This could be made both the size of a tablet folded to something of size like the Pro1 OR a more compact device with a keyboard about the size of a Priv, that could be folded really compact.
-
Would be nice, but remember that the keyboard-lovers is only a dwindling group these days, so might be a very little market if competing with the BB portrait keyboards. The Priv was not a huge success, and some of us only bought it in lack of a slider in the right direction. I mean the market is so small that BBmob have not found it profitable enough to even make a Priv2, and have not really updated their Key½ recently. And both would be MUCH cheaper than starting a competing design from scratch... But sure if there is a market then PLEASE let us have different form factors for different pe

It is fairly easy to remap what we get pressing various combinations just like we want (well within reasonable limits). The important thing is to get the print right, as this is unlikely to be modified once set into production. Currently with FinQwerty he has made the clever solution of having Shift+Key give what you EXPECT as standard, but have Fn+Key give what is printed. Of course we want the print to be as close to the standard as possible, but when it covers multiple languages this is not always possible. e.g when I on current shifted QWERTY set to Danish press Fn+9 it gives "(" as is
