Can anyone recommend a good key board? I had to reboot the phone yesterday and the keyboard I had installed seems to have disappeared and now I'm left with the stock one when doesn't have the swipe or predictive text or autocorrect on it.

Cheers.

Edit: Found and installed SwiftKey there. Do the job rightly.

If you use swipe there is none better at swiping than Swype. I try others but always go back because it has swype key + c and swype key + v gestures for copy and paste as well as some other handy ones.

Anyone else having Wifi problems? I have a Canon 6D SLR and I can connect to it to view photos and control the camera, but it wont connect to my OnePlus. Seems to be a known issue. Would going back to 11 solve this does anyone know?

I haven't tried Oxygen, but I put Exodus on the phone about two weeks ago and it's running better than it did even when I got it new!

No idea, You should just flash it and see I suppose.

Similar problem connecting to Gopro cameras from the OPO. You need to assign a static IP to the phone in the wireless settings.. You will also need to know what IP range your camera uses..

Thread here on the Gopro issue. I just got mine working last week after thinking it was an issue with the gopro.

If you googled OnePLus One you would have found out the specs that were announced and the date it is to be "unveiled"

Battery saving mode in Exodus is amazing, it should be the default mode. I cycled the Grand Canal yesterday, unplugged at 6am, was browsing as normal on the trains all morning then on GPS across half the country and taking pics all day, home at around 8 pm and the battery was still at 70%, if you don't touch the phone the battery level just doesn't drop, it loses about 1% an hour in stanby battery saver mode and I dont see any performance hit compared to balanced or power user modes.

Someone one time in this thread posted about a link for one for a different phone(but I cannot remember which) and he said it fitted perfect. I think it was the Note III or IV

It's a nice old cycle along the grand canal. It does get somewhat dull after the barrow split at Robertstown. I did it about this time last year and they had just recently cut the grass and the ground was rock hard so it was handy enough on a front-sus MTB.

Must do it again some day soon.

not relevant, all they need is your order number I couldn't even retrieve the IMEI as the phone was knackered.

Submit a ticket and follow their lead. takes about a week or so to sort back and forth via email and then a week once the RMA is approved.
