I've just joined the Unihertz club, even though both my Pro1 and Pro1x work great and I will continue to use my Pro1x most of the time. It's my cheap moto slab I'm trying to replace, which is just phone, texting and Android Auto.. essentially, a car phone. But even for the very little bit of typing I do on it, I am so fed up with on-screen typing that I'm willing to give BB style portrait keyboards a try. I settle on the Slim rather than the pocket. Both keyboards are too small in my opinion, having one that is slightly smaller won't matter that much. All the reviews seemed to think the Sl

This is not something I am knowledgeable about, but would the kernel be extractable form the files linked here?

I'm not sure who Nelson is, but I removed your email as it is not wise to post your email addy in a forum post (invitation to spammers). People can answer you here or in a private message. :)

I don't think there's any reason not to discuss other keyboard phones, especially in threads dedicated to them. This is, after all, a keyboard phone community. :)

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
I took the liberty of spliting out the technical discussion of the HDMI stuff. You will find those posts here: -
These posts were split out from the Pro1x production and delivery thread, since this seemed a more specific and technical discussion. This one, I believe. I haven't gotten one, so I don't know, but I assume the instructions tell you which app to download. I also recall someone on discord saying the app asks for lots of permissions but works fine when all permissions denied. https://www.amazon.com/Android-Mirroring-Charging-Smartphones-Projector/dp/B08LN8Z6QX

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
That "web3 garbage" has been going on since early 2022 at least and is likely how our Pro1xs got manufactured. Thank goodness, because clearly the troubles with the Pro1x were costly, As for the new phone, that is a separate project, may not exist yet other than as a branded plastic model in Adrian's pocket and if it brings in investment that can be used to help solve the shipping problem, fine with me. Yes, web3 is the web and not all that useful in modern industrialized settings, but there are some uses, as I understand it, in forming ad hoc networks in regions not well served by -

Although I am primarily a Windows user (I have one main activity that uses Windows only software, so it is just more convenient to have everything in one place), I use Majaro on an old Thinkpad for all my ADB and Fastboot stuff with my Pro1 an Pro1x. It just always works. I recommend an old computer with Linux for any Windows user wanting to do a lot of flashing. :)

I doubt anyone here thinks this Crowdfunding didn't go wrong. Hahaha, I probably have accepted it is unlikely I will see my second Pro1x, but still don't see any advantage to "accepting defeat" other than for some reason making you less agitated. Not really a motivator for me. ;)

Again we have no idea what, if anything, they are doing. I did notice, while making no mention of their troubles, in some of the Dubai coverage, the Pro1/1x are featured prominently. It would be possible to have investment in phone development of more than just a Web3 phone. It could include getting the Pro1x out and possibly the development of a new keyboard phone model. No, I'm not suggesting that is what is happening. I have no idea what is happening. We don't actually even know if they have investment in the Web3 phone yet-- they may be shopping that now (was that model Adrian flashe

While that's true in a long term business plan sense, in the short run monthly warehousing fees might be (barely) sustainable whereas starting up with a new logistics firm might require a lot of capital up front, for which, if they are working on it, they would need some additional investment.

Pro¹ X – state of production and delivery
Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
I don't think the problem is necessarily whether they have possession of the devices. I think the main problem is that they haven't been able to solve getting them shipped. So what are the possible holdups there. Again, this is just speculation, I have no facts. However I suspect that, as Expansys was dying (they are gone from the web), they demanded ridiculous amounts of money more to do the shipping they were already contracted to do. FxTec has said they did get the stock moved back to the factory. Lets assume that's true (might not be but that long ago last update used past tense -

Hook replied to Rob. S.'s topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
As you can see from reading through the last couple of pages of this thread, many (most?) have not received their orders. Some have (I have), They have been silent for a while so there is nothing we can do but guess. We don't even know numbers. Are there people who received them out there but don't come to forums? Certainly, far more ordered than the handful of people who regularly hang out in this forum (I have a friend who received his and he never comes here). So, what we can conclude is that there are many who are in your boat. At this point, whatever the number, it is too many. -
LineageOS 20.0 Official Release for Pro1x (QX1050)
Hook replied to Hook's topic in General Discussion
Lineage-20.0-20230824-nightly-pro1x with Aug 5th security patch installed smoothly via ADB sideload. Indeed I got the PTMBAN* reported in the Pro 1 Lineage 20 thread. I also flashed via adb sideload the newer MindTheGapps set dated 20230808, plus I reflashed Magisk, That last step may have been unnecessary, but it also didn't hurt, but I didn't have to reopen the Magisk Manager app and just had root as soon as I booted. * The Prompt That Must Be Answered No. This was reported by @EskeRahn in the Pro 1 Lineage 20 thread. When you adb sideload Lineage now, it reminds you need to reboot i- 137 replies

For what it's worth, I did take my Pro1 to a local repair shop. I gave them the videos and they had no problem and my Pro1 is fine. They actually thought the Pro1 was cool and were a little excited to work on it. It was just for a screen replacement because I lost all touch screen capability (didn't respond to touch) but when replacing the screen didn't change that, they did some further investigation, They didn't find the problem (I ended up sending to to FxTec knowing at that time I had to wait 6 months for parts) but they did a great job (FxTec, of course, also did a great job).

LineageOS 20.0 Official Release for Pro1
Hook replied to CornholioGSM's topic in Pro1 - Thoughts & questions
The newer Gapps gives me an excuse to do a sideload update for the Pro1x this coming Thursday. I'm assuming it will have the PTMBAN (Prompt That Must Be Answered No). I'll let you know in the Pro1x thread. -
Since Casey does not regularly peruse these threads (this is a user-to-user forum) I'll try an @-call to see if can respond. Not guaranteed,,, @Casey

Has it been too long for a chargeback on your credit card? (I've never done one, so I don't know)

Again, a little more information would be helpful. I don't have stock Android on my Pro1x anymore, but as far as I remember, there is no way to create keyboard shortcuts without an app that can provide that function.

A little more information would be helpful. Do you have a Pro 1 or Pro1x? I am assuming you are using either Android or LineageOS. If I assume you are using a Pro1x with stock Android 11, start both apps you want to use for split screen. Go to recents (for me that would be pressing the square as I don't use gestures-- I don't know what the gesture for recents is), press and hold on the first app you want. A menu will pop up. Tap split screen, Then tap the app recent for the second app. Not al that intuitive (or flexible) but how Android works it. I actually don't remember if t
