[PRO1, Rear camera stopped working]

1 hour ago, Rob. S. said:

Before disassembling, try applying good pressure to the marked position on the phone's back cover, that can put the connector back into place; for me, it has done the trick several times now (see also here) and so far I didn't have to do the disassembly at all (as to not adorn myself with borrowed plumes, the original image in this case is from androidauthority.com, I've just added the mark):

Hi, pressing the phone turned out to have solved the problem, but not until I rebooted the phone.

[PRO1, Rear camera stopped working]

Hi. I dropped the phone. It was in a pretty decent protective pouch case. The main camera app doesn't work with the rear camera anymore. And is very laggy and crashy, Third party apps like dashcams work with the rear camera. Restart didn't help. What could've happened? Only one of the two rear cameras got faulty? What to do?
Thanks.

[Poor call audio quality on Pro1?]

The sound quality during a call is bad. The speaker at the upper-front part of the phone near the front camera is of bad quality. I don't think it's a software issue. Just the speaker is scratchy. I am forced to turn on speakerphone mode which redirects the audio to the bottom loudspeaker of the phone to understand the other party.
EDIT: on the second thoughts it may be a software issue as well, because the bottom loudspeaker's call quality is bad too.

[Poor sound quality from the in-call speaker.]

[VoLTE (Voice over 4G data)]

Hi, I use Fxtec Pro1 with the Bulgarian mobile operator Vivacom. "VoLTE provisioned" switch is grayed-out and turned off. I called the support and they told me that VoLTE is enabled for a whitelisted set of popular phones only. The guy sent a message to the technical team about my phone, but it's not guaranteed that Pro1 will be whitelisted neither I'll be contacted at all.
I am in areas of bad coverage and the phone frequently switches from 4G to 3G/2G and my internet becomes slow, so I explicitly set network mode to LTE, because weak LTE signal delivers faster internet than 3G with better signal. The bad thing is that I cannot make and receive calls, and I do not even get SMS about missed call. The calling party hears "busy" signal.

[Pro1 signal strength]

My Pro1 has worse mobile signal in terms of 3G/4G compared to my other phones (LG Zero, Xperia E3) on the same locations with the same carrier

[RIP Pro1 - Caught a corner after a short fall]

Wasn't Gorilla glass meant to be durable?

[POLL: What keyboard layout do you want?]

Hello guys!

I am a big fan of full-keyboard phones! I have Nokia 9210i, HTC 7 Pro and Planet Computers Gemini PDA. I have also preordered Plant Computers Cosmo Communicator. Now I am looking towards the Pro1. My question is more sotwarewise rather than hardware-related. Most of the younger people in Bulgaria, including me, use US or UK-layout keyboards with software Bulgarian Phonetic input. In this phonetic input every latin letter's sound correpspond to its equivalent sound in Cyrillic alphabet. So I am perfectly fine with US or UK keyboard layout. My question is will the Pro1's firmware / Android version support Bulgarian Phonetic? I am asking that because PlantCom's Gemini doesn't support Bulgarian Phonetic for the physical keyboard; it only supports Bulgarian BDS, which is used by older people from the typewritter's times.

Thanks :)
