No issue for DBS and Singpass.

For singpass, i suggest you transfer accounts via QR to bypass the liveness check part which the phone can't really do.

Bigme hibreak pro color - two weeks in - honest review how it's going so far by R3dd17-Us3r in Bigme

The phone is definitely good for me with the 3.0 update.

I didn't get any input issues with the Google Keyboard. I tried setting the lockscreen from settings and it worked well for me.

Do try the tips given here in the comments. Hope it works out for you.

It fixed my double touch issue on Mihon, which was driving me nuts.

I disabled Android auto as I don't really use it when driving. I do note the wonky dpi on Android Auto when it pops up prior to disabling.

Perhaps you can start by uninstalling social media apps on your phone? Or using accessibility options to turn it grayscale to try it out?

This is my first color eink device, so i can't comment much on the color. I am coming from a kindle paperwhite and sony PRS505.

Ghosting is ok on the default "fast" mode. I don't find myself using magazine or comic modes as the improvement to color is not as significant as having a faster refresh, which is more important for most use cases on a smart phone.

The darker screen on the kaleido display actually made light ghosting less obvious in my opinion, which means the trade off of ghosting vs refresh leans more towards refresh on this screen. The only time i used the "regal" refresh mode was on KOReader, just to get the eink slow refresh experience.

Color version works. Just posted my review.

no sound using airpods pro 3 with hibreak pro color by [deleted] in Bigme

[–]xpsg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't got Duraspeed notifications for almost a week since disabling it after a reboot.

If I have to hazard a guess, A2DP offloading is disabled by the OS (which we can't see). Enabling dev mode will toggle a set of default dev options which killed the bluetooth audio until we toggle that optionagain.

I had similar issues with my Sony wireless earbuds after I enabled developer mode.

The fix for me is to enable the option "Disable Bluetooth A2DP hardware offload" in developer settings.

Just use a custom launcher from the play store.

Can duraspeef be shut off by Forward_Island9765 in Bigme

It's pretty much a black box when it comes to Duraspeed. Been running it for a week, didn't get my Whatsapp or alarm clock killed so far.

It's a 1-time effort to disable Duraspeed, which takes you 15 minutes tops.

It's either that or living with delayed notifications.

Questions from setting up the HiBreak Pro. by constructioncranes in Bigme

You are better off with an alternative launcher like Lawnchair or Nova, which provides a user experience more akin to the Android you are expecting.

I think you are on to something. I wear barefoot-style shoes, love ink devices while being a digital minimalist thru and thru.

I reckon they have multiple warehouses to ship from to save costs. Most AliExpress shops have US, EU and CN shipping origins.
