Well, I just update and two things broke

-Phone is locked in landscape

-Each time I type one of the letter 7m6kn or arrow down ,  the output is all the letters at once plus the app is quit. Almost unusable

Looking for a rollback solution

Odd, did you try an extra reboot?

Yes two times. to recover the portrait orientation I have to open and close several time the keyboard.

but I still have the issue with the physical keyboard keys unfortunately

Hum, it seem to be hardware. It was masked by the previous behavior as multiple keypress was ignored. Now all signals are recorded. If I press very gently the m keys, it is not apenning sometimes.

That would make sense. I'm afraid you may have to contact support.

Yes, you're right. I'll try to make a video. It's unfortunate, some time it works just fine.

Try "massaging" your keyboard and see if that fixes it? If it is a mechanical issue rather than an electrical issue it could help. Maybe your keyboard is still too stiff and too new. I found mine got easier to use as it aged a bit.

Well it seems to work! I was more focused on the hinge (the flex circuit) , trying to open and close the keyboard multiple time. But you're right, I spent a bit of time to press all the keys with my thumbs, and so far I don't see the problem anymore. Maybe I was too careful!

Thanks a lot for the advice!

To come back to the topic's subject, go ahead with the update 😉

The update is great.  The "multiple keys at once" fix has vastly increased my typing speed.  Before I couldn't break 40 WPM before I stopped getting dropped keys; now I am 50-60 WPM on a good day.

Thank you f(x)tec for fixing this!  Before the fix, it was a great phone; now it is stellar.

Software is really unstable though, I managed to crash and reboot my Pro1 just by playing with the slider

No such issue here. Then again I'm on the suspended update.
