I'm gonna try my luck with this one: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07DFNXFGV

wtf is vegan leather 🤣

The backlight is currently misbehaving. They will surely fix it at some point. See:

Not sure how to add an exit task though invert seems to work fine. Moreover once locked it can't be unlocked using the fingerprint and needs the pin.

Would it be possible to have an optional sticky shift behaviour? So that you don't have to hit shift and the letter at the same time to get the uppercase. You could just get the next letter uppercase after hitting shift without having to hold it. Also having an optional auto uppercase at the beginning of sentences like with virtual keyboards would be nice to have.

Looks like keyboard backlight stays off when unlocking open phone. I guess it would make sense to have a few more settings options like a backlight time out and turn on the backlight whenever you start typing or unlock the phone.

Is there any hope of seeing an azerty layout soon?

Looks like gmail does support provisioning and remote wipe as per ms exchange specs. I have yet to try it out but gmail mentioned it was on once it connected to my account. Remote wipe is the ability to wipe your phone clean remotely. Useful if it gets lost or stolen. Shame there is no dark mode in gmail on Pro1 right now.

Is the camera on the P20 Pro on the proper side for Pro1?

I see, so the recommended cases are the ones from Huawei P20 Pro then.

I find that one case for Huawei P30 Pro sort of fits. I guess other cases for P30 Pro should fit too. Though you may have to customise the cutouts yourself to access ports, buttons and fingerprint reader. Back camera cutout is just fine.

Could we have a slider setting entry to optionally lock the phone when closing it?

Thanks for the info. Though I guess I won't bother switching between chargers.

I tried it years ago when first switching to Android. Was not convinced back then. Thanks for the reminder though, I will give it a try.

I guess I'll have to give gmail a try then. Hoping it supports proper sync and remote wipe with my exchange server. I tried Microsoft Outlook on my LG the other day but it does not support two way syncs stupidly enough.

To be honest I rather have proper customisable global shortcuts working one way or another. Those looks like they are hardcoded which sounds silly. However having default working ones out of the box is probably the way to go.

Such an app typically also provides functionalities like remote wipe so it needs to come from a trusted source too. Does gmail even provide remote wipe?

Just did my first full battery charge of the Pro1 and it was really fast. Rather than using the provided charger I used my Huawei Super Charger and it felt like it was charging just as fast as my Huawei P30 Pro. I'm a happy customer 😁

Right, I'm with you on that no bloat-ware stance. However, I'm pretty sure not so long ago stock Android had a default app that's not gmail doing email, contact and calendar sync.

I see. That's just a home screen feature then. That's a bit odd seeing how it looks like Android has those built-in shortcuts shown in the settings but no magnifying glass on that keyboard to use them.

I understand you can launch/switch apps using keyboard shortcuts. I found the physical keyboard settings entry where they show the shortcuts but I still have to understand how to use them. I think my keyboard is missing that magnifying glass key 😁 Then again it took me like an hour to notice that Sym key that does not seem to be doing anything. 🤔 I'll blame my old age for being so thick 😁

Do we know if and when Android 10 will come to Pro1? Coming from Huawei P30 Pro I'm notably missing the swipe from the edge to go back feature.

Is there no functioning dark mode on Pro1? Actually there is a Display Theme option but it has no influence on the Settings app itself. It remains white.

Looks like there is no default email app outside gmail on pro one. Huawei P30 Pro does have a really good email app for instance. Though I've had the same problem on that LG G8X ThinQ, no standard email app there either. I'm usually using that default email app to sync contacts, calendars and email from a private Microsoft Exchange server. I do have a gmail account but I'm not using it. Is there no stock email app on Android anymore?

I just got my Pro1 from HK today. Got FedEx shipping notification on Wednesday saying it should be there on Monday but it was there by Friday already. That was a shipment to Germany outside Frankfurt. I'm still ok but then again it's 5 days incubation 😁 The phone itself is just awesome. Thanks FxTec!
