maemo.org - Talk - [IGG Live][Slider Keyboard] Keyboard Mod for Moto Z

I think the battery pack and bottom cover of the mod aren't attached in the video.

I'd be interested to see more from underside (hinge etc), no idea how that part works!

They are of course attached. We spent the last month trying to solve the connection problem and to add the Hall effect.

2 more videos was uploaded to twitter and worth a checking. ;)

Apologies, my mistake!

New videos look good, if you have time can you show the back of the device / side view during the slide? I'm curious about how the "push up and then adjust the angle" mechanism works.

This is T0 sample the connecting FPC is not the same as the final one (they look a bit different) and with this old FPC the product in video is actually also thicker than the T1. So I don't want to go into too much details for now as they will change.

We are also making improvement from T0 to T1 sample, include but not limit to:

- Landscape lock orientation when the slider is out
- New FPC and connection parts results in 1.2mm thinner. (13mm with battery and 11mm without) (This is the reason I did not show this part it in current sample)
- Textured bottom housing
- And a lot more...

Although it's delayed but this product will be great! ;)

Will the Keyboard Mod work on LineageOS?

Am I right in reading that only 30 of these lovely keyboards have been bought for resale in qwerty?

I'm trying to work out what my next phone should be, the moto Zs are the most expensive and biggest options so if there is no chance of getting a keyboard they can be removed from my shortlist.

I missed out on TOHKB years ago too, need to break this cycle!

Not at the moment. But I believe as it hit market the community will make it work.

30 are the T1 prototypes, for various certification/sales purpose. As soon as it's officially on the market we will produce as many as the market needs.

P.S: IMHO Z Play/Z2 Play are better choice and cheaper as well. :)
