A new update dropped today that installed a recorder app and the new KeyHub app which gives update information and can submit feedback.

Most importantly, they should give the option to update rather than force updates and using up my data

there used to be hotspot on the first beta devices but then they removed it for some reason

Please obey the forum rules.

I saw this on ivelt.com

We plan to release these updates to all users within the next few days.

Messaging

Fixed sharing into a new conversation (Image>Share>New conversation, used to get lost)

Added timestamps to outgoing messages

Added the option to mark a message as unread

Improved inbox behavior, filters, search results, empty states, and message list navigation

Improved the copy, cut, paste, cancel, and share flow in supported text areas

:red_exclamation_mark:We are aware of the mix-up with the menu options in a message conversation.

T9 / Keyboard

Added the option to save custom words to the T9 dictionary

Added long-press on number keys to type the actual number directly in T9

Added clear ā€˜input mode’ indicators for T9, ABC, numbers, and symbols (Top center of screen, night be blocked if you have too many items)

Improved T9 data storage efficiency (T9 is now less storage, updates should not take too much data)

Search

Released search feature. Find and open apps, contacts, call history, message conversations, notes, music, files, images, settings, and calendar events from one place

Notes

Added rich text for existing text

Improved the copy, cut, paste, cancel, and share flow in supported text areas

Recent Calls / Feedback / Launcher Search

Improved the copy, cut, paste, cancel, and share flow in supported text areas

Camera

Fixed camera settings so changing options like Sounds or Next Gen shows a confirmation notification

Music

Fixed the Now Playing screen so elapsed and remaining time appear in the correct positions (Did not hit Beta as of today)

Removed the unwanted white space at the bottom. (Did not hit Beta as of today)

Calendar

Fixed event creation so the header no longer overlaps the status bar

Improved notification editing so existing reminders are edited instead of duplicated

Added Custom time notifications

Wow.

I’m getting one in a day or two, so I’ll be able to check it out.

You’re getting a keyphone again?

Yup.

I just sold the first Keyphone that I had, but Keyphone wants me to see their updates.

Sounds like they have a an updated keyapd with a fix for the cursor button.

Have a brand new Keyphone, with QWERTY keyboard, 13 MP camera to sell for $300 .
Please dm if interested

I wish I had so much money to just buy 2 keyphones… :sob:

I also wish that I do…

I paid for one Keyphone.

Didn’t like it, sold it and bought an open box Wonder, which is what I have now.

Now I’ve been speaking to Keyphone about the review I’m writing, and when they heard my complaints about it, said that their newer keypads are are better, and they’re sending me another one to test.

post pics of the keypad. I want to see it. That is basically my only complaint with the phone-too small D-pad.

Did they say they actually fixed the D-pad?

Sort of.

They didn’t make it bigger, but they segmented it, and claim that that made a big difference.

Man Shrugging

I guess I’ll see what it’s like.

New update released.

Looks like they took some of my suggestions.

What did you suggest?

Typing mode indicator, and long pressing to type numbers.

The truth is that I only sent in my feedback yesterday, and these were pretty obvious things to work on, so I probably can’t take credit.
