Hook

I want to know where that hidden lever is that allowed her to open the keyboard with just a nudge of her thumb. 🙄 I find it pretty easy to do now,but...

Yeah. On the other hand, injecting a little nonsense doesn't hurt. 😄

Well, if you aren't pressing then, no, I don't have it. Also, as you would expect, I only get it pressing hard length-wise. side-to-side I don't get it at all.

I see what you are talking about, but I wouldn't call that a wobble, nor a lack of build quality (mine does that too, but only when I force it to, not in every day handling). The phone has moving parts. You would not like the effect if they didn't move. 😉

Yeah, tried to cover my tracks. 😄

Never mind... doh.

So here is a sad story. We spent all day on this only to discover we weren't getting the results we thought we were. apparently none of this worked, but I got fooled into thinking it did. I did get back the Esc-to-Wake but it did not get any fallback. It's not clear exactly what went wrong because I was genuinely fooled into thinking I saw the full fallback, but having fixed how the test versions get installed, I can't reproduce it (Anssi doesn't have a Pro 1). So now he is sensibly going back to ESC being ESC (for terminal work and such) and assigning key to wake somewhere else.

I may have jumped the gun here. There was a flaw in the testing. I'll get back when I have an update.

That isn't the launcher. That's Pie. You can change it back to the old style in Settings->System->Gestures turn off swipe up on home.

With a little testing, Anssi (the Finqwerty dev) made a version that preserves using Esc to wake the Pro1 but is also able to function as Esc. It will be in the next update. Another thing I love about this phone... it has great dev support now, and that will only increase in the future as more of these phones get out there.

None. 🙂

I would definitely try these steps and see if this manual config works:

Except, not everyone is having this problem. I've even tried typing random numbers very fast with my thumbs and it doesn't happen. I have big hands, by the way, with large thumbs.

This is brilliant! I finally have an easy restoration of Shift to evoke special characters. ? ans / still require the slant arrow, but I'm getting used to that. The one sacrifice is that Esc no longer wakes screen. I've emailed the dev to see if that is something he can do. I've decided it's worth it to sacrifice for using shift. Still hoping TTW will get working at some point.

I guess it all depends on what you want out of a keyboard and your hands. I find this a fabulous keyboard and I have hated every Blackberry I have ever had. BB keyboards are way too small to type on with any comfort or accuracy. Thank heavens we still have a few choices.

There are actually 2 serial numbers. one seems to reflect the order of manufacture and that is located on the sticker on the back of the phone. The other is found in settings, about phone, model and hardware and seems random. Lol, i forgot to note number on sticker before it wore off. 😄

Factory reset is in settings. (I haven't gone looking for recovery because I haven't studied how to do that yet).

Yes, I see what @Gon009 is describing, although i don't often lower my brightness. And how bad the effect is varies-- not as noticeable with photographs (though still there). What it seems to be (and I'm not technical enough to describe this in terms of what the pixels are doing) is that, as brightness lowers, there is a gray-green wash over everything. I'm thinking it could be that the brightness slider is yoked with contrast adjustment so that rather than losing just brightness, you are lowering contrast as well. And/or saturation. Hopefully this is software rather than hardware.

So, the upshot of this thread is that the title is clickbait. They aren't ignoring anyone's refund request. 🙄

@Erik, thank you for stopping in and your interest and for getting us whatever information you can, even if things are changing fast.

I'm not sure why they would refund sales tax-- my impression was that would be for anyone who was charged a Tarriff, and we weren't, as far as I know. I guess they are so ready to please they are doing it anyway. <shrug> Won't get a request from me. 😉

I agree. The problem is it's hard to always sort out this question of Google bug vs F(x) Tec bug, but in this case I suspect it is a Google bug. I think the problem is a lot of Devs out there aren't giving a lot of attention to Landscape orientation because it is so unusable on a slab except for pictures and video.

Oddly, on mine, the gear for settings is at the bottom of my screen and easily tapped. So whether this is a bug or not, it depends on what resolution you have your screen set at. I always set my display size in settings to small and pick an even higher resolution (small = high dpi, I believe) if it was offered.

Yeah, sorry, I did get this mixed up in my head. I really have to remember to review things on my phone when trying to help. It is indeed button vs icon, not locked vs unlocked. It's just that the locked vs unlocked almost makes sense. 😉

On #1, to clarify, is this all apps or just some? Clearly it still works with the launcher. Which apps. Most apps I use it works fine, but some, like Discord, require Autorotate to be on. That's not a bug in the Pro 1 but a problem with the apps programming. #2 confuses me. Yes, if the notification shade is longer than the screen, you will have to scroll. Why is that a bug? #3 I believe that's another autorotate button popping up. Not sure that isn't also Pie rather than F(x) Tec. #4 That is the way the new fangled home button in Pie is supposed to work. You can get the o
