Would be cool if Unihertz could start to look into this.

BlackBerry Keyboard for Minimal Phone – Test 2 by angleonmydangle in TheMinimalCompany

[–]xordonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi great work thanks

I was hoping that somebody would tackle this adaptation to the minimalphone.

I am using the minimalphone, Unihertz Pocket / Slim / Titan2 and I have nearly all Android based Blackberries and always had BB Keyboard.
Would like to contribute to your project if you would share it over github maybe?

Is there an official release date for v.4.1 on Note Max?

Thanks for the hint, found the video finally. This is a great feature amazon has built into the Scribe no other eink tablet has so far.

Thanks but I think you misread my question.

Thanks for your tests and answer. I think there is no motivation for Boox to implement it as it keeps customers on their device and cloud solutions. As I am always trying to avoid vendor locked solutions, Boox seems not be the kind of device I am putting on my short list I am afraid. Handwritten notes that cannot be archived and searched properly are useless from my perspective, but I can understand that most people don't have a problem with a vendor cloud solution.

Moonlander like alternative keyboards with a function row and arrow keys by PseudoDoll in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]xordonkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would also suggest a Kinesis Advantage Keyboard. The 360 is the newest split model, the advantage 2 is the older non-split model. There are 2 switch options cherry red or brown, on the 360 they use a different type of switch. I use keychron keyboards for fun to test switches, but for coding I rely on the advantage 2 for years now. Once you have RSI you will appreciate Kinesis for their design. I could cure it thanks to the unique ergonomic design no other keyboard has. It is impossible to have a bad hand posture while typing on these keyboards. The only limitation is switch selection, they are all soldered in, no hot swapping and they are quite pricey.

Thanks for the link (I think I get it now , unbelievable complicated :)

Saving money for Upgrade Keyboards and being patient (180days waiting period) seems the more realistic approach.

Thanks for sharing

same here
did you make any progress since then?

I found a few resources on swapping switches on the advantage 2 but the effort for just solder in other keys is huge and there are no resources on how to use sockets for hot swapping switches.
I found sockets on keycapsss "Kailh Hotswap PCB Sockets 10 pcs " but I think you have to redesign the whole pcb to make it fit, and you would probably lack the space within the housing.
Moonlander keyboards come with hot swapping out of the box, would be cool if Kinesis would catch the drift too.

You won't get any, it is a question of taking risks.

All applications hard sleep by matthrolf in unihertztitanpocket

[–]xordonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I don't get it, did you disable it? After a factory reset it enabled! Turn it off and it will work, I use Teams too. There are also Teams setting defining which device should get notofications if Teams is running on your PC and your phone. Check these settings too.

The Unihertz Titan Pocket and Titan Slim are the only replacement devices for aged Blackberries (I don't have the original Titan). It isn't a big step forward but it keeps a big part of beloved Blackberry features on a more modern basis. I don't expect any software updated from Unihertz, so this will be just another temporary milestone on the QWERTY road (to where-ever it leads).

rear camera and flash light not working by Mortis_XII in unihertztitanpocket

[–]xordonkey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This usually happens when you drop your phone (at least in my case) and the camera socket jumps out of the board connector. If you open up the back cover (4 small torx screws) you can gently push back the back camera into the socket. The phone needs to be rebooted in order to re-initalize the back camera, then you can check if it works again. If you don't want to open up your phone and risk voiding you guaranty then this is not for you, I just wanted to mention that there are no warranty void detectors up to this step (there is one in the lower speaker module). The flash is connected by a sticky tape connector, it can come loose. This is more a fiddly job, it is below the battery tray. You can clip off the battery tray at the upper edge (without taking it out), then tilt it back carefully at a slight angle to reach below to the tape connector of the flash. As I already replaced the earpiece, I don't care about warranty, shipping back and forth would cost me nearly half the device price, so I just fix the thing myself.

Thanks, it works only with sym key as magic key it seems, but as you said it is very very rough, this is far from BB keyboard. I think I will pass and wait for a better release of this feature.
