New FIG Kosher Phone

hershys no, that wouldn’t be considered kosher.. it has an AppStore that has Waze, Gmail, and 2,3 other minor apps.

countrypark but is there a option to install other kosher apps like google maps..... or to install apk?

hershys I’m not sure, did not test but I hope and assume that not. They supposedly customized it to be kosher so I’m sure it’s not easy to bypass, if at all possible.

They are not officially selling yet, should start this week, but the device I saw, Waze and Gmail crash when attempting to use them. I assume this will be fixed once officially released.

countrypark thanks for the info. tag has a filter for that?

hershys the one Cellular4Less will sell comes filtered.

countrypark but do you know if im buying the non kosher if somebody could filter it cuz i would like to have some more apps?

hershys are you sure it’s available unfiltered with the US bands? I understood they customized the bands.

countrypark double checked now the unfiltered with us bands will be available in november

hershys guess we’ll have to check with Tag then.

greatobeajew Just curious if your phone is still working well with tello?

does anyone know if there is a case available for the flip phone? the chassis does seem weak and could use some reinforcement

epjunk Doesn't seem like there is one, but anyways a case doesn't usually protect the biggest problem area- the hinge. It's the weak point and cases don't help. (Also becoming a problem with new "flip" smartphones....)

hershys Any update?

not what i know

Does anyone know why when I plug the phone into a mac it charges but isn't showing up. I am trying to add my shiurim and my music

The problem isn't transferring the files it's that the phone doesn't show up on the computer
