        @oldbutndy you can try to spoof firmware and flash EU ROM through EOL.

          You mean mod other code to look like routine update ?

            @oldbutndy - there are two OP 8/T/ Pro ports in progress.

            I read your links, searched for others.
            Tried a 'chat' with the person who said they are helping test (no reply yet).
            But, I did not find comments where I could 'reply' or 'quote' and ask question. I did not try Telegram yet.
            If you find any updates on OP 8 series, please let me know.

              you can lookup on the profile if the person has recently logged in. AFAIK there is no email notification for a chat, one sees them when logging on.

                @oldbutndy Just to set the expectation. Do not expect much from the external display experience. At the moment, it's kind of regressed compared to xenial and older versions. It has been better now in Noble but it's still have lingering issues and the most notable and experience breaking one is mouse scrolling. It doesn't work properly in the browser (only one tab or webview works) and scrolling in native apps is too "momentum"-ish 😅
                In any case, it's still fun to use from time to time. In fact, I'm using it right now to test some things 😄

                  OK. I will check periodically. Thank You.

                    Thank you for details. My test was very quick. I think I played a video for a few seconds. Then Libre office spreadsheet, mostly just to see if it would open up a file I had created on main PC, using same TV as display. It did. so, it was kinda fun. The only thing I remember from that quick test was a mild 'wave' rolled down screen, kinda like refreshing screen. usable.
                    Not expecting everyday use.
                    I will test more, & take notes, as soon as I get a working UT phone again.

                            @vverve I did get a lady this time, but unfortunately got same answer: NO unlock token.

                            I just searched ebay again for BE2026. Ebay shows many listings, but reading the details -which half the time don't state the BE20nn number- in each listing istedious day after day and almost all are BE2028 (T-Mobile), and occasionally Metro.
