I am moving to Ireland for school from Canada in August and I currently own a Oneplus One. Does anyone know which of the major providers (3, Vodafone, etc.) has LTE frequency that is compatible with the phone? Currently the cheapest I know is 3 with 20 euro a month prepaid with unlimited LTE but not sure if it works with the phone.

Where in Ireland are you moving to?

Right lads, the time has finally come. After 13 months with the phone, some jabroni managed to rest his pint glass on my phone, rendering it smashed and unresponsive. eBay suggests circa €70 for a screen/digitizer. How bad a DIY job?

Jaysis lads, I was using my OPO charger in a SGS3 overnight, the thing melted and fused into the phone charging port, lucky there wasn't a fire.

Ouch!

Thats what Current does, and why current is dangerous, less so with Voltage.


Current both your enemy and your saviour.

Have you applied the latest firmware update? Some of your app will need updating afterwards. Nothing a reboot shouldn't sort.
I had an issue with the camera after latest update was applied. I just powered off the phone and back on, it sorted the problem.

I get LTE with Vodafone in some parts of Dublin.

Think Vodafone are slowly rolling it out, but not sure if there is much LTE coverage outside of Dublin for the OPO. Perhaps in Cork since it's a city.

After the last update, mine did but it had got fixed when a hard reboot and clearing the cache.


I got a lot of app updates yesterday and my battery has taken a serious hit since. The battery drained quicker than I've ever seen yesterday evening and so far today.

Anyone disappointed with the Cardboard, go into a poundshop and get a headtorch, use it to strap it to your head, way better, the magnetic tape is the button replacement as has been said. Ive only tried the cheapest pair of plastic glasses from Dealextreme and they worked perfectly for me once I jury rigged a button from a magnet and washer I had in my toolbox, no clue about 20:20 vision etc I dont think the lens are adjustable...

urgh, screen went dead on my 16gb, went to return it through the RMA and they need to do a remote session to try and flash it despite me telling them i have tried it already.

to add insult to injury the schedule for the remote sessions is based on hong kong working hours and there are no remote sessions available in the next 14 days.

****ty service after looking after me very well with my 64gb model when the screen smashed.

Got this email from OnePlus yesterday

"Thanks for purchasing one of our limited edition OnePlus Cardboards!

As each Cardboard is unique, you can use viewer profiles to adapt to your own vision seamlessly. You can use these profiles on the Google Cardboard app for slightly different VR experiences. We’ve tweaked our very own viewer profile for you, tailored to the OnePlus Cardboard. Scan this QR code in the app to download the profile: qr_viewer_profile_v1.1.png



Everyone’s eyes are a bit different, so you can also check out a few fan-made viewer profiles to see what works best for you. We’ve compiled them for you here, or you can create your own. Those of you with custom ROMs can also try changing your DPI to 480 or 400.

Soon, our app will be made available on Google Play for the OnePlus 2 launch! Make sure you are subscribed to our newsletter and social media for alerts when the app is released. See you at launch!"

To use the QR code above open the Carboard app on your OPO and the first thing it wants you to do is scan a QR code for the viewer you are using. Apparently there are many viewers you can try/install and the above QR code is the one designed for the OPO.

Have fun.

was just coming on to ask about this.Phone was down to 30% after 4 hours today,couldnt understand what was happening.

I don't seem to have it as bad which I think is because of Greenify, but Snapchat (and the new Twitter) are both my biggest drainers today which is unusual as it's usually Spotify on about 5% on my commute to/from work.

I was having problems with my Cogito smart watch trying to connect using the "connected device" app that comes with the watch. It wasn't until I used the normal Bluetooth settings screen on the phone to connect that my problems were solved.

Cheers, tried that but no joy, it has to connect via the Android wear app and that's where the issue seems to be. Tried directly with the Motorola app but it still needs the Android wear to connect first...

I've installed avg anti virus recently, that's the only thing that I can think that may be blocking it so will remove that and see what happens..

How is everyone finding the battery?

When I first got it I was comfortably getting almost two days out of it, now im struggling to get one.

I have increased usage a small bit (using spottily at work for example), but didnt think it would have that big of an impact!

Duff

Have mine a year now and with the most recent update I'm still getting a solid day out of it with heavy social media use, Whatsapp and Spotify. Not bad IMO.

That's normal for usage. No smartphone will go two days being used. I always charged my phones at night and wake up next day with full battery and repeat again that night.
