My Fxtec Pro1 has run out of battery a few days ago. Couldn't switch it on since then, no signs of life. Leaving it in the 5V 3A charger overnight didn't seem to help.
I know this sounds stupid but I had a similar issue with mine.
I found mine powered off but I don't think it had run out of battery. It would not turn back on and wouldn't take a charge. I warmed the phone up by keeping in an inside shirt pocket and after a while I tried the power button and it came back to life! Hope it helps 🙂

Esc key.
Haven't used an N900 since 2015 as a daily driver but I keep grabbing at the little switch on the right side (which isn't there but the N900 had) to unlock my pro1 when it's open. Damn muscle memory. 😄

I've installed the blackberry hub mail app, I haven't used anything else since my priv. I can't stand the gmail app and the blackberry hub works great in split screen. You can get it ad free courtesy of cobalt.

Are folks all getting stock assigned in their FXTec account under their order status as well? I got email stating stock assigned but it doesn't say stock assigned in the status for the order when logging into the FXtec account. Just wondering if it is a USA thing or maybe it is just a "batch email"
I wouldn't panic, nothing has changed in my account status either it still says -
Order #73XX was placed on March 3, 2019 and is currently Processing.

Got a sms message with my tracking number this morning (parcelforce in the UK).
It also said it will be delivered tomorrow. I doubt it very much but that would be awesome!!

It's like busses......
I received my Pro 1 stock assigned number. O/N 7XXX QWERTY Europe (UK) non-IGG and paid Wed, 31 Jul 2019.
Also received my shipping/dispatch details for my Pine phone (Brave Heart) this morning (shipping from China).
Looks like we've got a race on Mr postman 😄

The n900 homescreen was a mess. No snap to grid, was forced landscape, things would move around semi randomly... I was always so frustrated by it.
It wasn't perfect but it definitely wasn't forced landscape. I remember locking it to landscape as the switch to portrait was so slow and it would switch right at the wrong time and then you would select completely the wrong app. I would spend far longer than I should getting icons and widgets perfectly lined up. Happy days. 😄

Battery life and having a polished full linux distro would be my dream.
The N900 was so very nearly the perfect device. All it lacked for me was a good navigation app. The ability to swap out the battery was also very useful.
I wouldn't worry if it was a tilted slider, a flat slider or clam style like the old communicator range as long as there is a full qwerty keyboard stashed inside.

Priv VS Pro1
in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
Posted
Never thought I'd miss the touchpad on the keyboard that the priv/key[1/2] had but I do. I find myself trying to scroll through a page swiping across the keyboard on the pro1 frequently (of course, nothing happens).
The fingerprint reader is better placed on the blackberry and you are going to miss the double tap to wake in the default setup of the pro1.
Apart from that I can't see a down side to moving to the pro1.
