I initiated a return with T-Mobile. The company is a disorganized mess and the broken out of the box virtual mouse is unacceptable. I hope T-Mobile drops them. What a waste of time.
Mouse on the schok? (USB debugging enabled?)
yrjr I think it's time for you to get a new phone These things are cheap junk.

Just a heads up for anyone wondering why the virtual mouse doesn't work: [Login to see the link]
The original Schok Classic runs Android 8 Go while the "Schok Flip" runs Android 11 Go, which suffers from the bug that breaks click functionality with the virtual mouse. My guess is the Schok "development team" noticed they couldn't just copy-paste their APK over to the Schok Flip from the Schok Classic and have it work late in the production process and decided to just not install the functionality instead in hopes that nobody would notice... even though it's a whole section in their printed manual.
Completely unacceptable, but hey, what do you expect? Their website is a mess of incorrect information and the company headquarters is a tiny office in Texas. Just an amateur operation slapping their brand name on cheap unbranded stuff from China that will likely never be updated.
Well, I got the phone from Walmart from Boost Mobile for $19.88 so I am okay with it. If it was anymore expensive I wouldn't of bought it.
I wonder if you can unofficially update the device.

What if you could update it to Android 12?

okok No, unless you have a rom to update it to. It's possible boost will make an update.

Anybody tried copying apk from a Schok Classic? Anybody here have a Classic that could share the com.schok.cursor apk?

ztenoob i haven't seen a working mouse for the shock. That android 11 one isn't working. If you have a bluetooth mouse it will work good.

Biden2020prez DeskDock works fine on Linux, so can use that to do any set-up, etc., for apps that I can't do with Voice Access. I have messed around a little with trying to get mouse to work, but nothing yet. Wasn't sure if I need an OTG adapter, or if it even has the ability. Bluetooth mouse doesn't show up in bluetooth devices in settings...

Biden2020prez I think it came with latest update. I have checked since I got it, and it has never showed any updates available. I did unlock bl, but seems there's no sources available, right, (or a way to extract img)?

Biden2020prez does your bt mouse show up in bt settings, and you just connect that way?

levone1 i unlocked bl, but we have no images available to flash. I am hoping to intercept a software update package and take the Boot image.
