I used the same approach but have used more force: I did not cover the whole back though, Just the area where the fingers are. The disadvantage of that tape is that it becomes less grippy over time. How is the transparent packing tape holding up?

Pro1, Ghost touches and other digitizer and display issues
Doktor Oswaldo replied to michal@hanu.la's topic in Support
Well while I understand the frustration, everybody does, we all have been there, I think it is important to remember that we just have no idea. FxTec may have done things wrong. Or they just don't get what they have paid for. The truth is, to produce a smartphone you are highly dependent on a few big players that can play ball with you. Sure if they don't send you the parts you may consider legal steps. That may bring you your money back but you surely won't get any parts afterwards. Not when you are so small that they don't really care. In addition to having no leverage at all, a lot of -

Games - What do you play on your Pro1?
Doktor Oswaldo replied to cube48's topic in General Discussion
Unfortunately no. If you give him a message ( https://twitter.com/ESAdevlog ) he might agree on adding it as an .apk ... I don't know him at all, I it just a guess since he seems to include as many possibilities as possible on his website (direct buy there, drm free, linux version). -
Games - What do you play on your Pro1?
Doktor Oswaldo replied to cube48's topic in General Discussion
Just saw yesterday, that "Baba is you" is now on Android (Played it on switch before). I tested it, and it works great with the keyboard. Movement is on arrow-keys and WASD. Rewind is even mapped on Ctrl+Z (and more comfortable: backspace). "Baba is you" is a "Boulder Dash" like puzzle Game where the rules of the current level are blocks on the playing field and can be moved around which changes the rules. For example there may be a Rule out of three blocks: "[Wall][Is][Stop]" which means you can't walk through walls. By pushing one of these three blocks out, the rule will not be there any -
A few months back me phone just went pitch black in my hand. Nothing triggered any reaction. No button and also no charger. So I contacted support for help. It took a while until they answered me. But they offered me help to repair it myself. Not really keen to try any parcel service during brexit with a phone still holding a decent amount of personal data, I gladly took that offer. They hinted me at the battery and the USB-Board. My skills in electronics and manual labor are... well let's say I am a programmer 😉 But the phone is really really easy to disassemble, I was able to do it w

Ripped switch rubber membrane and fingerprint sensor cable
Doktor Oswaldo replied to hostar's topic in Support
They do send spare parts, but I have no idea if they have spare FP sensors. P.S. Eske is just a power user, not affiliated with fxtec nor working for them. So he has to guess exactly like me. -
Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Doktor Oswaldo replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
That is pure hindsight bias. It is useless to look behind. Of course you would have made money if you knew back then what courses are today. If you would have bought XTZBEAR Coins for that money you would have like 0.02 $ right now... -
They stepped up their game again. Since a few weeks support is answering and sending out parts again. I got a new USB-Board a few days ago, which has brought me one step closer to revive my precious pro1.

They actually have a pretty good track record in delivery the stuff sometime. It just takes forever. -

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Doktor Oswaldo replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
yes yes it is, cpu wise. But the keyboard is timeless. The Question is only, what is the keyboard worth for you? I am currently an owner of a fried prawn, using my old phone (nokia 6.1). I do not miss the faster cpu, I miss the keyboard... every f**king time. -
Pro1, Ghost touches and other digitizer and display issues
Doktor Oswaldo replied to michal@hanu.la's topic in Support
That is exactly the reason why nobody should EVER pay for extended warranty as long as the burden of proof is not reverted. But at least this phone can be repaired. -

Pro1 mysteriously died yesterday...

where are you from then? Most smaller countries in Europe that are not in the EU have similar rulings. -
Pro1 mysteriously died yesterday...
Doktor Oswaldo replied to archseraphim's topic in General Discussion
I had exactly the same, even was looking at the phone while it turned black. Still trying to repair it, but I will have to send it in I think. BUT I MISS THAT DAMN THING EVERYTIME I PICK UP MY PHONE 😪 So please send the thing in for repair and then sell it to someone who is as desperate as me! -

Great interview @EvilDragon ! But what really kills me is the video. Impressive talking!

Can't believe it's finally happened. (Cracked Screen)

He just said he leaved the bottle there, nothing about the whisky. I guess DieBruine is very skilled at using a straw now 😉 -

Probably worked because it is proper whisky, do NOT try this at home with johnny walker red label! -

Need help filing a consumer complaint in the UK...
Doktor Oswaldo replied to DieBruine's topic in General Discussion
That is great news! Thank you for the update. To be clear, I never wanted to attack fxtec or anyone personally! And I am not surprised, that the problem is with the parcel service and not with you (I mean I know dpd.... it is a casino). I was just pointing out, that DieBruine has no possibility or rights to pressure the parcel service at all. It is unfortunately for you something fxtec must do. We all know that you are a small company and it sucks to fight against big parcel services. But I honestly think DieBruine has tried what he could to solve the issue by himself! Keep up the go -
Need help filing a consumer complaint in the UK...
Doktor Oswaldo replied to DieBruine's topic in General Discussion
I agree, if there are additional fees. I would pay it as customer. I would guess you don't have to, but I have a feeling, that nobody really knows with brexit... so I would advise to bite that apple. You could also book a transport yourself (probably more expensive due to pickup) or let them send it to an english buddy of you and then use the postal service. P.S. to be clear I am NO lawyer, and all my advise is done to my best knowledge but without any form of guarantee! -

No need to go to DPD at all. DPD has zero responsibility to you. -

Doktor Oswaldo replied to DieBruine's topic in General Discussion
Exactly what I meant! And honestly maybe @Erik can pitch this case? I mean maybe the phone is lost and only the money can be reimbursed. But it is just horrible if the customer must choose between loosing it and going to a court! And it does not matter at all if they sent it back or not. Even if they can prove it, it is still there responsibility to replace the phone/money.
