Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Slion replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Long spent I figure, I mean they can't afford to pay for shipping and can't refund customers. -

Yeah that was really funny 🤣 -
Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Slion replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Of course they can't keep paying for this when it does not bring any income. They are just trying to cut their losses. They may have a limited stock of devices but I doubt that will be enough to fullfil all the orders. -
At this stage your best bet to get an X is eBay. I'm guessing if they eventually manage to ship them you will be able to get some there.

Pro1 X at this stage is mostly vaporware and at least 2 years too late... Though to be fair I wish they would still take order so that I could claim my money back while they keep the Ponzi scheme running 🤣 Just being sarcastic. There is no reason to believe any intent to wrong their customers. It looks like they are still trying their best to fullfil the orders but the project really went to shit on so many levels. Even the X they do manage to deliver are not really usable as smartphones apparently...

TBH as I was backing the X I knew we got really lucky with the Pro1 and I knew this could easily turn into a shit show 😏 and it did, that it did 💩 I mean most of us are still waiting for it and those who have it can confirm it is unusable as a smartphone... Still, respect to the F(X)Tec team for all their hard work and persistence in the face of adversity. -

Has it been 3 years already? I lost track. The whole thing turned into a farse a while ago 🤣 Still have not bothered asking for my money back. Maybe I should though and CC my lawyer too ⚖️ -

app Interface - Bluetooth PC keyboard for Android tablets
Slion replied to Slion's topic in General Discussion
The app should soon be available on virtually any devices including the Pro1. The keyboard pass through seems to be working really well, at least on Windows PC. May have to put a bit more work to provide Android specific features when connected to a TV or streaming box for instance. On Pro1 you will be able to use it with the keyboard open or closed. With open keyboard the screen serves mostly as trackpad. All you need to do is match the keyboard layout settings with the host device and the keys are translated properly providing that they are available on the host keyboard layout. On -

Yeah everyone who actually spent more on that project by purchasing the extras is bound to be extra disappointed instead. I'm pretty sure they have no plan to deliver the spare parts for instance. -
Two actually, and I also have a couple of replacement screens in my stash. Also got a couple of custom made leather smart cases too. Not sure when or if I'll be willing to part with them. As a developer being able use them for testing apps is convenient. Testing Lineage OS is also a plus. Though to be fair it looks like they are both bound to spend a lot of time in a drawer.

I wish I could get my €800 back to order a Pixel Fold🍷 -
Well at least to Pro¹ does not have a notch. Been kinda weird switching back to a phone with a notch.

Lately I was contemplating the FairPhone 4 but I eventually ruled it out. I think the LCD screen put me off.
-
That was never an issue for my usage. I usually could get 2 days of battery out of it.

It mostly worked for me too TBH, except for some banking apps.

Yes, surely my greatest contribution to the community 😁 Any smartphone needs a smart case.

Good to hear. Fulguris is also my daily driver. Hopefully development will pick up again at some point. Been a bit busy with other projects 😁

This morning after about two and a half years I put back my primary SIMs in my Huawei P30 Pro. The main reason being I have hardly ever used the keyboard since I upgraded to Lineage OS back in late summer 2021. I used my own custom ROM with a few patches for the keyboard, lower brightness and darker Eye Comfort options. Together with Google Play and Magisk for better full screen gesture support. As someone who has to jungle with French, German and English languages the keyboard needs some extra customization for optimal use. I had a nice keyboard setup on the official Android 9 but never

It just shows they have limited control on those things as they are subcontracting I suppose. Either that or they are themselves careless and lack consistency.

Also the brand name does not even match the one from the Pro¹ 🧐🫣 https://storage.googleapis.com/play_public/supported_devices.html

Ho yeah, you need to change the layout in Windows or Linux too. Actually the layouts from Interface were extracted from Windows so there could be slight differences when used on Linux. Though it's all standardised so in most cases it should match exactly. At some point I might get around implementing a companion app for Windows that could take care of such things like keep the layouts in sync. -

I ought to make haptics more configurable. ATM you only get what your device offers. -

It's not. Though it's true it has been mostly tested on Windows. Should work just fine on Linux though. It's just an HID keyboard.
