Currently they layouts are made so the two letters immediate to the right of P and L are correct. But the letter two positions right of L (that is Ä in Swedish) is the problem, as this position physically is Enter on the shifted qwerty. So the two most oblivious possibilities are to re-purpose the physical Del key of full height, and move the Del function to the "=" left of Backspace OR to move the Ä to the reduced height "=" even further from it's standard position. We have also been experimenting with a non-shifted US QWERTY layout for the DE QWERTZ physical layout. I would not be surpris

AFAIK they are independent. -
Hmm, why would one exclude the other? It is not aPple, but seems like decent people, so they might well expect some of the users to keep the device for many years, even if one or more new models are offered.

It is not the right forum (nor thread) for discussing that. There is another thread on what apps that benefits from the landscape and keyboard Pro1 here. -
Separate wallpaper for landscape mode in launcher?
EskeRahn replied to elvissteinjr's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Yes I have suggested that too, and suggested that they also offered an option of having two crop masks to the same image [attachment file=34301] -
Denmark - €24

I can say that it is beyond speculation :-D I'm currently in dialogue with Anssi Hannula (The brain behind FinQWERTY), and has already had an early version that make Danish on the shifted US QWERTY much better than the android default available as stock. 8-) He is even preparing the needed adjustments to use it based on the unshifted QWERTZ as well.

I have no inside knowledge on the shipping - And even if I had, I would not be allowed to share it.

Thanks, a few comments: * on keyboards LEDs see this tweet a number of LEDs can be seen, but it is not as extreme as one per, key, so even f they are controlled individually (and I doubt that) you would not be able to light individual keys. * the touch at the edges is deliberately ignored, as the earlier firmware often gave unwanted screen interactions opening and closing the screen.

It is not just the display foil that is identical, it is the whole display assembly with digitizer, glass surface (and holes).

How to type Unicode characters on QWERTY keyboard?
EskeRahn replied to lcsaszar's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
I'm quite surprised (bordering on shocked) to read this. As the keyboard is THE main thing on this device I am(/was?) expecting some super perfected software for this specific hardware keyboard, and not something just adjusting whatever Android happens to have build in. I REALLY hope to get a MUCH MUCH better keyboard experience than what a random BT keyboard can offer on any device. Sure the sliding mechanism in it self is a plus, but PLEASE let us benefit from the great keyboard. Let us remap things freely for any language or special usage, including all sort of combined modifier keys -
How to type Unicode characters on QWERTY keyboard?
EskeRahn replied to lcsaszar's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Exactly. and I would suggest to let the user select these sticky or not. Perhaps with some easy swap between the two states. Or even an automode, that detect if it is still and horizontal. If so it is likely to be on a table, and thus sticky is not needed... But I would happily settle with some plain key-combo to switch sticky/non-sticky. -
Just saw that now even aPple let people repair their devices at partly independent repair shops https://www.gsmarena.com/apple_will_finally_let_you_repair_your_outofwarranty_iphone_at_independent_shops-news-38936.php Though they still need to be 'approved' by aPple... so the independence should be taken with a truck load of salt.

How to type Unicode characters on QWERTY keyboard?

I'm also eagerly awaiting to see how some more finished keyboard software will be. I have only tried the pre-production thing, it is really limited in accessing anything interesting outside the most basic letters and a few symbols. But they must have put the Alt, Ctrl, Sym keys there for a reason, so I guess we just have to wait and see.... I hope we can soon have some information on the files controlling stuff, so we can make it fully customizable, And hopefully it can be altered without rooting, I have tried to ask for info on that since spring, and has optimistically started a minor pro -
It is inaccurately just called microSD, see e.g. this for details. But I guess that if you insert an old microSD-card it will work too.

As I wrote earlier, adhesive remains from a (failed) experiment I did. It is pure Android. Just the soft-key, so if the app used are not in full screen mode, you got one (or more) softkeys in the bar -
I got 5x2 :)

Sorry guys, I'm away for a few days, and asked the staff to handle stuff

I forgot to post an image of the elastic one mounted, but can be found in this thread (not on final unit though)

Yes, And could have been better if I had applied with more care, as you can see with the speaker and camera holes. For other readers: Some cheap elastic ones from aliexpress discussed over here, -

I think it can be achieved as already described by others, but I'm pretty sure this is a render though, as I (with this angle) would have expected slight distortions at the curved top edge. And I do not think you can make the splitter bar that thin either. Here is an example (outside, a nice sunny day today), this is a preproduction unit, but doubt that it matters in this context. Here with the Android font size set to "Large" and "Small" (Both with "Display size" set to "Small") - browsers at default. And yes you guessed who that bald guy disturbing the image is...

I certainly agree that the moderation issues are far worse than the design issues.

I could be related to the moderation that they are 'locked', but not sure. Before that I believe people were allowed to edit for a limited period. [Rant] And I certainly agree that the fonts are not at all important in this forum, from my perspective it was a more general rant as these crazy designs appear all over the net. I think it is related to the plaque of "material design", that would have made sense on 16 colour CGA displays decades back, but are just outright stupid today, I simply can not find a single benefit. Well except that the informationless displays might allow screenshots
