Still running a FP4, only replaced the battery and the charging port. No further issues, works like a charm.
Love that, can't wait to rock the FP6 for as long as possible!
I asked someone else, but I hope you don't mind me asking you as well... With the PF6, 5g works as well? Any issues with MMS or RCS messages? Visual voicemail works fine?
I am trying to find a new phone, and while there are a few different companies making repairable phones, (Fair phone, HMD, shift) most of them are aimed at EU markets, so I want to make sure that a majority of the features also work in the US. My goal it's to find something that will work for me, my wife and my in laws that won't be a hassle. (Because, I do the tech support for all of them, and ideally I'd love to support just 1 device)
Ask away, I have no issue with anything you mentioned inside The Netherlands so I assume the majority of the features would work in the US as well. As they promise a good working phone in the regions they sell. (To keep in mind i do run android not e/os/!)
