And named "swipe up on home button"?!? I grabbed the Pixel and took a look. It is in Settings->System->Gestures->System navigation There are 3 options: Gesture navigation, 2-button navigation, and 3-button navigation. In Gesture, there are no soft buttons at all. In 2-button, there is a virtual home button and an arrow button to the side of it. I don't see a mode that is like what the Pro1 has, with only the home button, but maybe that is a Pie vs Android 10 difference. 3-button is, of course, the normal 3 virtual buttons (which used to be physical!!!). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They disabled that because it was causing a serious problem, with I don't remember what. They said it will be restored once they can figure out how to stop the associated problem. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was because it was related to the screen refusing to accept input until you reboot, I believe. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
anonim001 105 Posted December 20, 2019 Author Share Posted December 20, 2019 Thanks everyone for the answers. The main problem I have now is that the phone is thinking the hwkb is open 99% of the time, no matter how many times I open and close 😞 the backlight stopped working too. In this state it's unusable for me. You guys (and girls) are much smarter than me, can You think of any solution for that? Can it be a software bug or rather hardware related problem?

Did you try rebooting it? Have you done all the software updates? Have you tried factory reset? If none of those do it, then I'd guess the cable that connects the screen to the keyboard isn't getting signals through for some reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Factory reset only for a short time. All updates installed. edit: strange thing just happened. Everything was fine (phone in portrait mode), phone was in stand-by lying on the desk and suddenly it has turned itself on in landscape mode. edit2: now it was just fipping back and forth for a couple of seconds, like some contact from the sensor was loose. edit3: pushed the housing harder in a couple of places and it's back to normal at the moment.

An "E" is an "R" and "h" is a "j" and so on. If you choose a LAyout all fine but no questionmark possible. I will try your Thread with Keymapper. THX for this No need to do that. Just update Gboard and make sure to add the proper languages in the settings. Had the same problem yesterday and solved it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think so too, now it's stuck for good, nothing helps 😞 guess I'll be the first one to try their repair service. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderhaake 8 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Did you guys find a solution for the question mark? I still can not write a "?" with the hardware-keyboard at QWERTZ.... GBoard is up-to-date. (No Update found) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I can tell where the glue is just by looking it under direct light. (yeah, that was more of a remark than question) ....i have question about ∆∆∆...you say that is visible how is display glued.

Not a huge fan of the curved edges yet but I really wouldn't say the device looks cheap in any way. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Craig 1,435 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 This device definitely does not look cheap. Its sleek and smooth and clean, open and closed. I haven't tried looking for leaking glue tho, and don't plan to. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
