Hungary also received tracking number. 🙂 ...however, they also would like to request permission for customs clearance... Doesn't they (at F(x)tec side) told they have customs pre-paid? Don't I remember well? It would be not very good to pay the same thing twice...

Hi, I am basically satisfied with camera itself but Snapdragon Camera is really not the best. Also it seems sometimes it does not take photos (maybe because I have configured it to use SD Card) but then it does again. Also a but noisy in dark environment. I have found myself using OpenCamera and currently trying Footej Camera which looks to be good. Maybe they are better in darker environment but where I user camera, I think it performs well. Basically I can make sharp macro photos - much better than with my Moto G6 - also inside using room light. Outside photos are also look t

I think it is a bit more complicated than if somebody ordered QWERTY or QWERTZ device because as far as I know, QWERTZ devices were sold only to Europe destinations. For me, I would have been bought a non-shifted QWERTY instead, but as it was not available, I have bought QWERTZ one. However, I use a mixed layout on it which basically has standard QWERTY layout while accent characters are reachable by using FN (blue arrow). Basically my layout looks like QWERTY more than like QWERTZ but definitively not like shifted QWERTY - which wanted to be a useful idea but for me, it would be inco

I think if you are IGG backer then you should have a stock assigned mail sooner or later this batch. Maybe they have not finished sending out mails yet or it may have landed in spam folder of your inbox.
-
What I can tell you that an order number of #49XX from Hungary of QWERTZ device without IGG coupon has received stock assignment the same time as me with IGG coupon (12:43 CET). It was also payed in 31th July maybe within an hour of request arrived. As it seems there is at least one user who received an e-mail also about not being in this batch, it may happen you will also receive stock assignment e-mail later - maybe tomorrow.

I have heard about another stock assigned e-mail for QWERTZ, EU, without IGG coupon and order number 49xx.

Hehe, same for me also. 🙂 However, PinePhone's courier told usual shipping time as 10-14 days and I think F(x)tec uses a more expensive shipping company with pre-paid TAX, so Pro1 should arrive earlier I think. 🙂 However, if you expect both of them early February then it will be a real race. 🙂 Anyway, two different phones to play with takes much more free time. 😄

Right. I would be interested in at least two - so maybe four or five. ...in black colour, if possible please.
-
Right. Also it may worth looking at Spam folder as service providers are not really like to receive mass e-mails spread on their user accounts (and that is one reason that F(x)tec is not sending all e-mails at the same time).

What was written in your e-mail and what is your location / keyboard layout / order number approximately?

It would be good if someone could manufacture a similar case in a factory-like environment. Anyway, thank you for sharing .stl files.

I have just filed a pull request on GitHub for Hungarian layout of Pro1 as it seems @Anssi Hannula is not actively checking this forum. I hope it will be included soon. I put both QWERTZ and QWERTY versions there but I don't know how usable it is on shifted QWERTY layout.

I think a better solution would be to only turn on the backlight in the event of slider opening or any key pressed. That way if keyboard remains open, one may need to press a key to light up the keyboard (maybe it needs the modification of the low level driver). The best solution would be if a counter would exists (initial value is ideally set by user) and any keystroke would reset that counter. That way keyboard light would be turned off after a certain time and is able to be turned on also if slider remained open when the phone went to standby. Also, it seems the system keeps l

That is what can be done using ffmpeg at command line (also graphical fontend may exist)... ...but it would be good to not have such limitations... -

Yes - I have recorded a relatively long video with my Moto G6 last year. It can not record in 4k but somewhere around 2k - using OpenCamera. I was surprised to see it clipped the video at 4 GB despite the exFAT which supports larger files, but now I know its reason (I didn't know also video API has such a limitation in Android). Fortunately, it could fit in two files but I was not really happy when I saw that. I don't remember what program I used to join them but I think ffmpeg solved the problem and video looked good. ...but the same video would maybe have 4 or 5 pieces which sho -
Any plans a 5G enabled phone?

It is too early to ask this, but if a successor will come up later, they may have to also experience with 5G. 🙂 -
Checklist for a possible move from BlackBerry

Keyboard layout can be easily modified under Android and FinQwerty does help a lot by adding 3rd-party layouts to Android without the need of rooting. So if I understand well, if these layouts will be done by somebody and included in stock firmware or even they appear in FinQwery for example, then it is a solution for that. As the source code of FinQwerty is available on GitHub, the most simple way of adding my own layout was to build a version for myself which has my layout included. I have also put a layout file in the specific thread here which is a standard layout so it worth t -
So this thread has ended up with a simple math equation coming from the real life.

I have formatted it outside of Android and the system wanted to format it again and it has always put FAT32 on it. I have also zeroed the first part of the card and also put it on a partition and without partitions at all - when I put the card in, I had a question about using it as an internal or external medium then to reformat it... I don't know what does it look for, maybe it wants to have some specific parameter (setting) or some files at appropriate place but somehow it seemed to found out the card was formatted elsewhere or just because of unknown filesystem. I don't remember if I -

Yes. Although I don't know which SD cards doing (or not doing) what type of wear leveling. They may improve anyway as these cards are available in very large sizes now, so they may be more clever... I don't know its background but there may be differences in corruption. So if last correct state of a file can be preserved (which may also cause problems anyway in some situations) or unmodified files may also be corrupted. Several filesystems like ext4, NTFS, jfs, XFS, ZFS, btrfs, ReiserFS have journaling capability to access this issue as opposite to FAT filesystems. Howeve -

My PC reads ext4 very well anyway (as it runs Linux). If it was the only reason, they may put an option to set it in developer options. Also, if someone is able to format the card to a specific filesystem and put it in the phone, the system _should_ not threat it as a corrupt card and _should_ not force the user to format it... that would be a minimum from a correct operating system. Anyway, the reason is the same (shame) that Android basically does not allow root access (which would be essential for your _own_ hardware) and Windows 10 forces its updates even if user working in som -

Yes, FAT32 has a maximal file size limit of 4 GB which is a real limit nowadays while FAT16 had a partition limit of 2 GB. As far as I know, in exFAT, they have tried to eliminate the most problematic limitations of FAT32 but the basic conception remained the same so it has no protection of filesystem corruption and it still extensively use the first sectors of the partition. The most important fact of FAT filesystem is that they are really simple (that is why also relatively small implementation exist also for using it on microcontrollers). ...but to be right, the last filesystem -

I believe these are only a few, special cards in higher price ranges. As far as I know, basically they don't do wear leveling. ...however, it is up to the hardware manufacturer... I have not dug deep into it, but it seemed to be mostly older experiences. However, unexpected power losses / phone reboots may definitively have a result of data corruption. Basically, f2fs has some resilience of power losses as opposite to FAT32 filesystem which is a really old one without any attempt to handle data corruptions. It even writes a specific part of the flash card which causes it to p
