> It wasnt really 100% clear in the article. Does the USB issue apply to current/new orders from them as well?
The new PMOS version gets a new hardware revision, 1.2a, which is when the issue was resolved. The earlier versions (including the Ubports/1.2 and Braveheart/1.1 revisions) both have the issue.
I own the 1.2 (ubports edition) version of the phone, and I really want the external display capability, but I've never been any good at soldering something so small! It sounds like there will be some volunteers helping to fix the issue on the earlier versions, if you send them the device, which I very well may do.
