    Ordered on Saturday - arrived this morning! Very very pleased with it and how great it feels, the back cover is out of this world! Really dont want to get a case for it but I guess i'll have to in the long run!

    Not too put off by the size, having an S4 - the difference is marginal.

    Packaging - very clean and that sim removal tool. Nice place to have it in the keyring!

    Over the last week my opo has been turning off with about 15% battery left and is dead so have to charge.
    Anyone else had this?
    Used the calibrate battery app but no joy.
    Read on the opo forums to wait till its dead then charge for 6 hours while off. Then turn on and do this 3 times. Should sort it out. Thought I'd share.
    Will let you know how I get on over the next week

    Gar

    Well that seemed to work surprisingly!!!

    Interesting. I presume that means no cyanogen themes will work with the new OS.

    Looks like a fair amount of uncertainty around what One Plus are doing with OS.
    Personally I'm not happy they look to be parting ways with Cyanogen. Not sure if we'll get any more Cyangoen updates officially for the OPO. Not sure if I'll be happy with the new alternative, I like the customisation capability currently available. Have mine configured and looking like Nexus devices.

    I feel the same way.

    Cyanogenmod was one of the 2 reasons I bought this phone.

    It was cyanogen and the near vanilla/nexus like experience that made me buy it.
    Otherwise I'd have bought the N6. If I didn't mind Asian vendors version of android I'd have bought something like a Xiaomi Mi4. I don't want an android os that mimics ios.

    Try it without Bluetooth turned on.

    I had the same, did a reset and it's much better.

    A factory reset or just a reboot.

    Ok it connects to one network but won't connect to any other wifi network


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 399 ✭✭Red Wolf


    I was having this - for some reason it was my Horizon Wi-Free messing it up. Deleted that and it's been perfect ever since.

    I did a full wipe before this and it didn't help.

    I'll give this a go. Also on horizon so it may be an issue. Never thought of wi-free, thanks.

    I wont be replacing my OPO with an OPO2 if its not Cyanogen anyway. A lot of people complaining about the Nexus 6 aswell though, brutal battery and rand random glitches.

    Are we not getting the Jellybean Cyanogenmod now or something?

    I think this chat is just about the posting that opo will be using their own is in the next few weeks.

    There I a version of cm for the opo, I will just install that if I have to. I have been using cm since version 9.

    Hi, sorry don't know if this is the right place to post, but thought I could definitely get an answer here. Was looking at the one plus one before Christmas, but a massive deal breaker for me was the lack of availability of Sky Go for it as it's an app I would use very frequently. However I've heard now through HUKD that Sky Go is compatible on all devices running Android 4.0 plus. Can anyone confirm this? are there any other apps that won't run. I'm sorry if this has already been posted, I may have missed it! Thanks in Advance!

    Got my opo on Friday evening, no problems to report. I have Sky Go working which is a great bonus.

    Also forgot to mention, to my surprise, thrown in with the packaging, there was another sim tray for a nano sim card. Has this always been the case?

    Received my OPO in Friday and been using it a lot since then. I moved from a nexus 5 to this.

    The size difference is huge at first imo but you get used to it very quickly and now it just seems like a normal size.
    The screen looks beautiful. Even tho it's the same resoloution and worse dpi than most other high end device, the colours etc. look amazing.
    It's very fast and have experienced no slow down at all yet. Constantly having 10+ apps running.
    The camera is very good quality and opens very fast.
    The quality of the phone is amazing. From the screen to the feel of the sandstone back and even the silver trim around the bezel.
    The phone does feel very fragile and I feel like one drop could smash it so I will sadly have to get a case for it.

    I was weary at first upgrading from a nexus 5 as I thought the difference wouldn't be too much but it was and I'm happy I did.
    I would defo go for the 64gb if you were thinking of getting one. From the 64gb only 54gb was available.
    Anyways I'm very pleased with the phone and thankful for the invite I got here on boards.

    http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/02/01/cyanogenmod-12s-final-testing-stages-rollout-oneplus-one-global-devices/

    Despite all the acrimony between Cyanogen and OnePlus, most of the phones that shipped with CyanogenMod 11S are still going to receive updates for the foreseeable future. The firmware update to 12S, which is Lollipop-based, is now in its final quality assurance testing with Cyanogen and third parties to meet standards set by Google to retain Play Services. Remember, this is an OEM ROM, not just a run-of-the-mill build going from nightly to stable.

    cyanogen7dbtf.jpg

    The update, which will come OTA, is based on Android 5.0.2. Since multiple parties are involved, a precise release date can't be pinned down. Rest assured that it will be soon, though.

    This is unrelated to OnePlus's recent announcement that they will be developing their own software called Oxygen OS. While Cyanogen will probably no longer be the OS partner of choice for OnePlus, support will continue for all phones that shipped with CyanogenMod 11S.

    If you're not familiar with the situation, OnePlus and Cyanogen underwent a messy break-up of sorts after MicroMax inked an exclusive deal for CyanogenMod in India. OnePlus Ones that were purchased outside of India, now referred to as "global" devices, will keep the OS. Devices made specifically for the Indian market will at some point receive an update to Oxygen OS.

    Any themes that change the messaging. Ive been trying to find one but can't. I don't like all the white. Would love different colors between send and recieved


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,900 ✭✭✭daytob


    gosms pro does that for you if you want to go a different app for messaging

    No it was not the case when I got mine anyway.
