Not that I know of, not with the keyboard. But double tapping the screen wakes it up if that's any consolation.
"2. Is there similarly a programmable keyboard shortcut to lock the phone and turn the screen off, or do you have to use the power button? Long-pressing K key on the Classic functions just like the power button when the phone is already unlocked. The only time I use the power button is when the phone's in the cupholder."
Double tapping the screen while it's on will turn the screen off when on the home screen. Different, but it's the same in that you don't need to use the power button to do these functions.
"3. The lack of that sweet Play/Pause key between the volume buttons is gonna suck. Is there a keyboard shortcut that can serve that function, or can the convenience key be mapped be used that way?"
No, and no, and yes it sucks, oh well... And thanks for calling it a play/pause button instead of a mute button. But the convenience key does act like that key during calls, in that it mutes the calls. But no easy way to play/pause media as of now...
"4. Same question, but with hanging up the phone? I would miss no-look hangups."
Not the convenience key, but you can set the power button to hang up calls, it works great.
"5. Can you simply type out a phone number with the keyboard letters that correspond to the Alt numbers, then call that number with a tap or two? No-look dialing has come in surprisingly handy!"
Well, I have my KEYone set to do shortpress keyboard shortcuts as well as longpress. I find doubling the number of keyboard shortcuts is far more handy that dialing from the home screen. You can easily set a short press of a key to launch the phone app, and then going to the dialer and typing out the number from the keyboard then. Unfortunately as of right now, there's a bit of a bug that needs to be fixed. If you launch the phone app, it defaults to showing you the favorites screen, so you'll have to manually switch to the dialer. However, and here's the bug, there is a shortcut to go straight to the dialer instead of launching the app itself, except if you use this shortcut the keyboard isn't "active" or something and you'd have to touch the screen first to get it to work. Really annoying, I'm going to post about it in their sticky and hopefully it gets fixed in the next update...
"6. Does the keyboard double-tap bring a cursor up on web pages and articles? It's so quick and easy to cut, copy, and paste anywhere and anytime with the Classic."
No, only while typing. I'm also hoping this feature gets added. This is why I specifically correct people when they claim the capacitive keyboard replaces or acts like a trackpad.
"7. Are the navigation buttons above the keyboard customizable? I'd like to have the Back key on the right for better one-handed use. I haven't used Android past 5.1.1, so I'm not up to speed on Nougat's features."
No, the buttons are capacitive, they are not software.
"8. A lot of my questions involve features that ease no-look operation. How does the KeyOne stack up against the Classic (and Bolds, for that matter)?"
Que? Stack up in what way? I mean, I can type without looking and hang up on calls without looking... Not sure what else...
"9. Can you create different notification profiles with custom app notification settings, and can you switch between them with a long-press hotkey bind?"
If by different you mean normal and vibrate, then yes, lol.
"10. Can the fingerprint sensor recognize multiple fingers?"
No idea, don't use it.
