Only the key to the left from delete (+*) is unidentified and somehow spits äÄ and # on ALT modifier. Thats why i asked for some key code sniffing method on sfos. That would also help with the yellow arrow modifier i guess.
This yellow modifier level is not working and needs deeper looks from a porter. The modifier to reach 3rd level is currently ALT only. (fingercrampingalert)

1. devel-su
2. nano /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/fxtec_vndr/pro1
3. empty it and copy+paste this draft into. (EDIT updated @12:54 utc to include the | on ALT y)
4. ctrl+o to save in nano
5. ctrl+x to exit nano
6. dconf write /desktop/lipstick-jolla-home/model \"fxtecpro1\"
7. dconf write /desktop/lipstick-jolla-home/layout \"de\"
8. systemctl --user restart lipstick

Alpha state!
Some items like # (numbersign?) are set in the config and asigned to correct key but not working. I guess i need to check the names to fit with xkbd conventions
Will go back to it this evening.
Since this is the same workaround as mine for qwerty, I think you should post it in the corresponding Github issue (you can reuse the same formatting) for later reference. That way we will have both qwerty and qwertz temporary workarounds in the same place.

The issue with the yellow arrow is its keycode is beyond the 255 limit for xkb I think, if I understood correcty what TheKit reported. Might need some kernel black magic. Same for sticky keys, but that would save some thumbs cramps.

We need dead keys too for international users. They work with my layout in Ubu chroot, so I guess it's a SFOS limitation. I opened an issue on TJC to ask.

Regarding my video issues, I did use Android for a few hours, but I do not remember if I played videos. However Youtube videos work in Sailfish browser and Kodi and Ubu chroot, but not Twitter videos in Sailfish browser, nor any videos in Microtube, LLSVideoPlayer, Pico Player and Meda Player. Can any of you confirm these apps work correctly for you?
