Can you explain a bit more about how this worked? Sent to who in he UK? Sent with DHL or they picked it up in England?

Haven't don't it yet. Only broke Monday. Its not rocket science few screws.as i got the one with the frame it's easier. If you get the cheapest option of just digitizer and Lcd it requires heat to seperate. So went with the easier option.

Any idea on postage time of parts? Read on the oneplus forum that someone waited nearly 4 weeks.

It was picked up by courier in Belfast, went away to UK somewhere, new device arrived from *somewhere*.

Been playing around with different launchers the last few days and have settled on Nova, much slicker I think and more customisation options. Have added Unity UI icon packs which look pretty neat

One thing I can't settle on though is my clock widget. Any recommendations?

Yes it does state 21-25 days So tbh id rather wait that and save myself in the region of 70 Euro than give it over to the UK. Its nearly double the price.

I have a backup old phone i can use. No big deal.

Nova is great. I really like your clock widget. What is it ?

maximoose · 04-03-2015 12:47PM

The one I have there is Minarch but you need to have Zooper Pro installed

EDIT: Actually with a little playing it's fairly simple to edit the layout of that widget, quite happy with it now!

ThunbergsAreGo · 04-03-2015 03:18PM

What advantages does Nova have over stock?

Have had it installed on most phones up to know but liking Trebuchet

Thanks for the reply.
So in that link did you go for the first option? http://vifocal.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=oneplus+one+replacement+screen
Or a different version completely?

Ridiculous amount of customisation.

Unless they charge a special rip-off Ireland price which they probably will...

Is your phone rooted? Downloaded Nova and when I try to import from Trebuchet it doesn't recognise any of the apps.

Presumably the other options will still be there, so should keep a limit on how far they can take it.

hi everyone, i have a galaxy s4 and i want to upgrade to the oneplus one. i understand it costs 330 euro in total to buy it online. my friend offered me 270 for my s4. should i sell it to him and buy the oneplus one now or should i wait for the oneplus two?

ThunbergsAreGo · 06-03-2015 07:39AM

Does anyone use the on screen buttons?

Yes. I fun the capacitive button placement to far down to reach comfortably when I hold the phone in 1 hand.

Get the one plus one now I'd say, from what I've heard it'll be a few months off yet for 1+2, plus 270 is a good price to get for an s4...The longer you wait, the more susceptible to depreciation that's going to be...

I read somewhere it is related to apps that use the camera. I know since i uninstalled Snapchat it has been much improved.

Definitely noticed it a bit for the first few days, seems to have improved somehow though. Currently at 58% remaining, 21h on battery.

Hi

I did have an invite in a past life but not the money but now there is an 'open sale' on a Tuesday I may take a second look.

However one thing is that I believe cyanogenmod and one plus have parted ways and that cyanogenmod 11 is the latest rom thats on the phone but you can still flash cyanogenmod 12. New rom Oxygen will now be on the phones.
Not used any of cyanogenmod roms before on android so not sure what its like?

So as new rom not out yet better to hold off and see how things go or just keep on manually flashing cyanogenmod updates?

Cyanogen & One plus have not parted ways. Well not anyway.
Cm12s & Oxygen will be out shortly for the one plus.

Take it for that quick as possible before he realises how much he's completely ripping himself off.

I've been holding out for a one plus one. Every time I go to purchase something crops up, but I'm making the plunge next month no matter what! My poor HTC is dying a death!

Thargor · 06-03-2015 11:38AM

Stupidly updated my phone fully after I had to do a factory reset last night, I wanted to stay with 25R but Ill leave it for a week or 2 before I bother going back. Im forcing myself to use stock CM launcher now aswell and to try out different themes, Ive been using Apex launcher since the early days of Android and Im sick of it, all my devices have looked the same since Gingerbread.

One big problem Ive noticed is the double tap to wake function seems to have gone really sluggish, sometimes not working at all, anyone had this problem or seen a fix?
