Not much messing around to be done.......download VPN app, pick a country, check for update, download update, pause update, disconnect from VPN, resume download.....voila!

7 steps, or wait and click update when it appears itself

(joking really, If it were a major release i;d probably have done it, but there was nothing in this that got me too excited so i was happy enough to wait)

My battery life seems to have improved hugely since I got the update last night.

I'm thinking the same and so far (touch wood) I've not had a single reset where I was having multiple daily before. ]

One thing I've noticed is that chrome has froze on me a few times, but you just kill the app, reopen and it's fine.

Go into settings battery and then screen and you will see your screen on time.

OK, once I get a full charge I'll reset it and check.

Updated this morning. By now I'd usually have 50-60% battery left and I'm currently on 80℅ with more usage than normal...

Wow.

eh i dunno · 07-01-2017 04:55PM

75 mins screen time. Battery at 69%.

Jayop · 07-01-2017 07:30PM

2 hours and 52 minutes screen with the battery at 42 percent.

Yeah I'm usually down to 50% or so by now and it's at 76%.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000 · 08-01-2017 01:53AM

I'm at 44%.

I have never gotten to this point in the day/early morning where it's that high. It's usually dead or hovering around 10% by now.

Jaysus, the OP2 is my backup phones backup. Tempted to start using it again to see for myself...

The update is a massive improvement. Still no restarts at all.

I've had the chrome freezing issue maybe 5 times though.

Battery was just getting back to lasting a decent length of time and then the update came and seems to have killed it again. Anyone else notice this?

Ya big time, android system and android OS are using 20% of the power.

My battery is probably twice as good after the update.

I'm getting weather report notifications from one plus now. Anyone know how to turn them off?

Same as. They're not annoying me too much but I got the same wind warning like 3 times the other day.

Try settings, notifications, scroll down to weather, select and then select block all.

Yes, getting terrible battery life - heres a screenshot of the battery drain overnight, with no screen time at all:

I reflashed back to version 3.1.0 again, following the instructions here, and performance is much better again

When texting or posting on boards my keyboard is now grey/white instead of black. How do I change it back?

Settings

SwiftKey keyboard

Themes and stuff are kept there.

You can hit the three lines at the top left of the keyboard too, then go to More->Themes

Jayop · 20-01-2017 05:42PM

Mind blown. Great tip dude!

eh i dunno · 20-01-2017 05:59PM

Cheers lads. That bland white/grey was annoying me the last few days.

EletricMan · 22-01-2017 01:53AM

Just a heads up, my alarm didn't go off during the week. Well it did but no noise or vibration, lucky my body clock woke me for work. Might be a bug with the new update, I had the settings checked and it had worked, has only happened once so far.

Hmmm interesting this happened to me and I just assumed I never set it... This was using the timely app though not the one that comes with the phones
