Hook

Thanks to whomever split this thread off. Might even deserve (Rooting) it's own Forum topic after the Pro1 comes out.

I agree, I will probably not go to an alternative rom, unless F(x) Tec can no longer update but a F(x) Tec blessed version of Lineage can (I still get updates on my 0ver 4 year old Samsung Tab S via Lineage). Frankly, if the Pro1's Android is vanilla enough and they don't install endless Google bloat as system apps, I might even avoid root for a while. I'm going to have to relearn rooting anyway. I was spoiled by owning several Nexus models and being able to use Nexus Root Toolkit (still works on my Nexus 6p, just have to manually download source files as the toolkit is currently abandonwar

My Nexus 6p is rooted and with an alternative ROM. It would be good to know what apps you are talking about. The only app I've ever had problems with is Netflix and that is easily solved by installing an older version which I keep the apk for and reinstall whenever I slip up and let an update through. Netflix never objects to the older program being used. I am still using Oreo (Dirty Unicorns ROM version 12), so I have no experience to know if anything is different in Pie. Could be just I happen to use only apps that don't care, so would be good to know what apps you are concerned about. I

All the initial feedback is on Liangchen's twitter feed. Curiously, nothing on F(x) Tec's social media. I hope someone from here who attended comes by and gives a detailed account.

I agree about the case just from the perspective that a universal item like ear buds are not that important, you can always get them, but a niche phone is going to have trouble attracting case manufacturers and so a case of some quality is of real value.

I didn't think it would be browser dependent, but just to be sure I installed Vivaldi. No difference. But thanks.

Same as netman here. But thanks for trying.

Yup. Exactly, that's the problem. No option shows up anywhere. OK. Not a big deal. ;-)

This is really trivial and more to other posters here, not worth the time of the f(x) Tech folks. I notice some folks have avatar pics on their posts while I have just the faceless default. I'd love to add a simple pic, just for some personality, but I can't find any control to do so. Is this no longer an option or did I miss the control for it? TIA

I'm always surprised by all these comments that the screen is too big, but I guess I must have big hands because my complaints with most HW keyboards is that they are too small (my thumbs are about 76.2 mm in length). I also want big screens. I have a Nexus 6p now and would certainly not want to ever go to anything smaller. Even with a massive battery case it fits fine in my front left pants pocket which is where I've carried all my handhelds since my Palm TX. I always dial down to the smallest resolution to maximize screen real estate. I'm 66 and my eyesight isn't what it was but I refuse

This video also mentioned selling through Amazon, towards the end of the review: No way to verify if that's true or not, but interesting.

@Waxberry Any chance of getting an answer to this?

Yikes, that is concerning. Yes, I am interested in a keyboard phone because I want to be more productive, but when I occasionally watch some Netflix on it, I would like to get full HD. I appreciate you might not have the answer, but could it be just because it is a pre-production test model?

The pre-order page offers a case with all fulfilled pre-orders, though I have not seen a specification of what type of case it will be or what materials.

Thank you so much! This has been fixed. :-)

I'm not sure I understand your concern. I'm assuming that's the back of the phone,not the back of the slider keyboard as I can't imagine the camera would be in the keyboard. Therefore, this is what pops up, not the surface the phone would sit on when used laptop style. Or am I missing something (a hypothesis that always needs strong consideration with me ;-) )?

I subscribed to the newsletter in the latter part of March and then registered when I pre-ordered in mid April. I have no notifications option under "My Account" but I received both April newsletters. Leads me to think the missing newsletters problem isn't tied to whether you have the notifications option or not.

Hi, @Waxberry I'm wondering if the folks there have had a chance to look into this. Should I send a copy of the original email I have acknowledging the coupon code to [email protected]? Thanks.

Order #12751. Thanks!

I'm just curious (not worried). I was given one of the Indegogo coupons ($100) by a friend who backed the moto keyboard but could not at this time buy this phone. It took the coupon fine when I made the preorder and showed the discounted price. When I received the confirming email, it showed the full price but listed a $100 store credit/gift card balance with the coupon code. However, in the account information here, it only shows the full price on the preorder and doesn't list anything under coupons. I assume I can just remind them of the email if I have to, but was wondering if this is
