Most spec sheets use "MicroSD" loosely. SDHD and SDXC distictions are related to capacity. The Pro1 spec sheet says it takes cards up to 2TB, which means that it must take SDHC and SDXC cards.

I generally go caseless myself and carry my phone in my left front jeans pocket. Even my large Nexus 6p. Actually, the 6p was one of the few phones or PDAs I have had which I did get a case for, a massive battery case and it still went in my jeans pocket. I personally hate things hanging off my belt. And I just dislike cases. I prefer the feel of the phone unless it's too slick (which the 6p was). And yes, everyone knows I have a phone in my pocket (and that's it's not that I'm just happy to see them). :-D In 16 years of using phones and PDAs I've never had a serious drop occur. I probabl

For what it's worth, here's an update from Liangchen, from 24 Aug: "> [attachment file=33868]

This is more a thread for reporting apps that work well with landscape keyboards than a thread to make requests. I also use DejaOffice. Are you saying that on the photon the on-screen keyboard came up? I have used DJO in landscape on my Samsung Tablet witha BT keyboard and there is no on-screen keyboard. I would certainly expect that with the Pro1. Once I have the Pro1, if I see anything that would benefit from tweaking or some feature, I will take it to the developer who is pretty open.

Very quiet in here-- guess we are all eagerly awaiting the second week in September. Be curious who is going to the New York event. Anyone planning on shooting any video like at the German event? Can't wait for the feedback, as I said before.

It's clearly a graphic pasted over the render of the phone above it (under the heading "Best of Both Keyboards) which you can tell because it has the say weird gray lines poking out. I think the gray limes in the previous graphic were supposed to represent screen curvature, but they are too opaque and end up making the phone look like it has a gray border. They get it right in the later graphics as you scroll down. I'm convinced you can do great split screen on a landscape screen of this size and quality with no on-screen keyboard. I'm not convinced those screenshots are from a smartph

I would give you multiple thanks if the forum let me. ;-)

For some time I have wanted to give you, Eske, a shout-out because I knew you were doing a lot of uncalled for work to keep the discussions going, as badly broken as it is. However. lol, even I had no idea. Thank you, Eske. I won't blame you a bit if you decide to stop doing it, but thank you for all you have done.

This thread is probably just a way of distracting myself while waiting for my Pro 1 to ship... ;-) I've noticed a few people talking about buying more than one Pro 1 and I'm sort of curious about that strategy. Sure, it's probably nice for them to get a few extra sales up front, but I'd rather wait and see if there is going to be a Pro2 (or whatever the next model ends up being called) before getting a second one. Of course, if I see the specs for the Pro 2 and I decide I like the Pro 1 better, then at that point I would quickly buy a second Pro 1 perhaps. For instance, if the Pro 2 went w

Boy, I wish I were able to make it. Just slightly too long a trip (I'd have to stay overnight) and on the day I retire at work. Lol. Dang. If I had maybe a weeks more notice... or if it had been a week later. Can't wait to see the reports from those who do attend. :-)

Also, add the corrected version to the FAQs,

Noticed a different forum link is used in the FAQ about other operating systems. Whatever it points to asks for a username and password, but doesn't accept the ones from this forum. Don't know if that's the new forum being prepared or something altogether different. It does appear to be an F(x) Tec link and not something external.

@Erik-FX We don’t currently have a definitive answer if the Scandinavian layout is coming, as our factory has a minimum requirement for the order quantity which we must meet. We will know more as we monitor the demand for this layout in the upcoming weeks. This isn't my issue—I'm in the US and am happy with the shifted QWERTY—but I am curious how or what you are monitoring to determine this demand? How do people insure their input provides a data point to what you are monitoring. I would think an email polling all pre-orders asking for their keyboard preferences might be in order.

I will note here that I made a post in the Softmaker forums (I use Softmaker office on Windows, Android and Linux) telling them about the F(X) Pro 1. They are working on a new version of the Android apps (thought they have been doing so for a year now and it's not clear when they will be released). However, for the new version I asked them to consider adding a method by which, if you had a keyboard, you could jump to certain screen elements such as the button bar without touching the screen and then use the arrow keys to find a button, They said they would send the suggestion to the developme

If you read the posts above, I think you will see that what you describe is the normal state for most of us. I would imagine orders will be "processing" until the phones are actually shipped. However, I'm just guessing.

I'm not a phone band expert (and I'm also not on T-Mobile) but from these two articles, one from Last April and one from Last December, it looks like T-Mobile is leaning heavily on it's new spectrum acquisition, Band 71, in some areas. I had T-Mobile briefly in VA a few years ago and wasn't very happy as the coverage seemed very spotty. https://www.whistleout.com/CellPhones/Guides/cell-phone-networks-and-frequencies-explained https://www.phonearena.com/news/Cheat-sheet-which-4G-LTE-bands-do-AT-T-Verizon-T-Mobile-and-Sprint-use-in-the-USA_id77933 These articles are posted as informati

It's not just overseeing the the order processing, manufacturing, distribution, logistics and shipping of our phones with all the underlying business operations that requires, but they also have to do marketing, which for a phone aimed at as untypical consumer market as this, means a lot of showing up where the potential market and support folks are. As you can see form the following link, Liangchen (and a certain other forum regular ;-) ) was at Froscon this weekend. It would be nice, as crazy busy as the F(x) team is if they could shoot us off a message of how the pre-ordering

This happened to me (and many others), but I was able to talk to the Fraud division at my bank and they unblocked the card and I was able to put the transaction through because they then knew what it was. Did you contact the issuing bank?

My opinion only, but ugh. ;-) Whenever a phone or software offers that option (my password locker does) I immediately set it to unlimited. One of the things I loved about Dirty Unicorns is that it left my phone unencrypted by default. My paper files aren't encrypted. They don't even have a password. I don't need my phone encrypted. Lol. The few things that need to be encrypted are. Again, just me. YMMV (and I'm not being critical of anyone who disagrees with me).

I suspect they are not allowed to announce themselves or give any information in the forum. NDA and all that.

Not looking for a fix as I'm sure the new forum will take care of it, but wanted to see if this is happening to others. The forum index has become unreliable at identifying threads that have new posts or reporting who the last poster was. When I enter a thread, I often find posts I've never seen before. So I have to go into each thread individually to find and respond to new posts. Anyone else seeing this? I'm on Win 10 using Firefox, but I got the same thing using Chrome.

Amazon is mentioned very briefly in this YouTube video, towards the end, as possible selling the Pro1, But the reviewer gives no basis for saying that, so who knows? I don't believe I've ever heard F(X) Tec refer to selling on Amazon.

It also helps explain why they had said Quertz were for Europe only. The US fulfillment center will probably not receive Quertz models. This makes a lot of sense. Everything I've ever ordered from the UK has been shipped to me from a fulfillment center in the US, including my subscription to MOJO magazine. ;-)

At least I hadn't seen that on the forum before. Seems to be a nice easy way for direct contact. Also new links at bottom (again, at least I hadn't noticed them before, but I'm not always on top of things) including a Term Of Sales Link which has interesting information including the fact that we have 14 days after we get it for buyers regret. I don't plan on having buyers regret, but is good to know it's there. Nice to see these things popping up (though it may be old news by the time this thread gets moderated :D).

They had said on the form to request the change to quertz that "QWERTZ keyboards can only be shipped to European addresses.." I didn't want one, I was just checking the form (being curious about most things), but I thought that was odd. The only thing I could think of is that the phones with qwertz may be being made and/or shipped from a different location that is being hit with tariffs. Apparently they are willing to accept orders from the US after all, but there is a penalty. I don't clearly understand why all the US phones aren't being hit with this. Not that I'm unhappy there was no Trum
