    Hey guys, i posted on the main thread before seeing this here so Im assuming that will get deleted anyway, Im not sure how to.

    So I Bought my one plus 3t about 3 months ago and just dropped it off my bed there. There is a crack going across the screen and everything underneath it is just black. Covers about 2/3 of the screen. I adore the phone but my god it does not have a tough screen at all, dropped it about 2 feet off my bed.

    Ive emailed one plus there but if anyone has any experience or suggestions on the matter that would be great, thanks!

    btw the top part of the screen still works, can enter apps etc and swipe across and the home button thingy works too so the damage isnt disastrous, the phone is completely unusable however

    If you're wondering how to go about getting it repaired go to your oneplus account on the website, log in, click my orders and click the big red button that says service request. I think it takes a couple of weeks for you to send it away, they repair it and send it back. They assess and give you a quotation as far as I know.

    I am in Spain on holiday. I popped into a phone/gadget store yesterday looking for a screen protector for my oneplus 3t and the Asian salesman never heard of a oneplus! I showed him mine told him specs he was very impressed. Amazing still how few know of this absolute gem :)

    It's probably because there's no networks taking it as far as I know. Are oneplus not letting networks lock it to their network and sell it as part of bill pay?

    EDIT: They are: https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/phones/oneplus/3t/
    But it doesn't seem to be carried on many networks. Maybe they make more money on the likes of samsung and apple phones that are twice the price!

    Someone I know broke the screen on their OnePlus 3 - €90 to get it repaired with OnePlus.

    Not giving the unlock codes is a nice little earner for the networks too.

    How do you store them to SIM?

    Good question. I need this answered too.

    Don't need to store them to sim. Get "SMS Backup and restore" by Carbonite and back them up to Dropbox. You can then set up a schedule to backup every night. There is one for call log too if of any interest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,777 ✭✭✭sentient_6


    Or just have them all backed up to your google account? Instant contacts should you ever wipe your phone and sign back in or sign into a new phone.

    Iv no contacts on my sim or phone memory.

    Just received $10 voucher off 3T from OnePlus. Anyone buying one before the end of the month PM me for the code.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 598 ✭✭✭RIchieNouveau


    I'm just back from Portugal where I had no data connection but could make and take calls fine, as soon as I landed and took it off flight mode I have no signal at all. Have tried rebooting, taking sim out and replacing etc but no joy. Has anyone any experience or suggestions? Thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,056 ✭✭✭IrishHomer


    Similar happened me on the three network. I went to local store and they replaced the sim and after few minutes i was back to normal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 598 ✭✭✭RIchieNouveau


    Thanks Homer, forgot to mention that I'm on Tesco Mobile. I'll have to grab a sim in store and try it myself because they've no phone shops near me. I'll probably have to take a mini sim to get cropped too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 598 ✭✭✭RIchieNouveau


    Whoops. Apparently I switched to another network manually while trying to get the data working abroad! Fixed now...

    Can't decide whether to wait for the Oneplus5 to be launched or get the 3t. A lot of rumours suggesting the battery won't be 4000mAh as previously thought, but only 3000.

    Yep I'm halfway through the process myself. Got up off the couch Sunday night and it fell to the ground so not a big fall but completely smashed. My own fault for keeping puting off getting a cover but it wasn't a big fall.

    Oneplus have come back with the following and am now just waiting on collection

    Spare part (Screen): EUR 59.60
    Labor fee: EUR 18.50
    Shipping and handling fee: Free
    VAT: 23%

    Total repair cost estimate: EUR 96.06

    Note: The final repair price will be quoted after the inspection done by our engineers at our repair center as additional parts may require repair.

    The estimated turn around time for the process from the time our service center receives your device would be:

    2 business days for inspection, service center will email the final quotation.
    If you agree and pay for it, 2-3 business days for it to reflect on their payment system. Some banks may hold your money for 3-5 business days before transferring it.
    2 business days for repairing the device.
    3-7 business day to ship it back to you.

    How do you turn all volumes down on the device? Even with the do not disturb switch on I get sound from apps.

    Edit: Ah the switch is a 3 way switch!

    Edit edit: has anyone got the Google assistant on their device using English United Kingdom?

    It only comes up with Engligh (US) but you can add an english (UK) keyboard and you won't even notice the system is set on US. I didn't anyway. I have to say Assistant is very good when it comes to IFTTT and WeMo switched etc.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,272 ✭✭✭✭Atomic Pineapple


    Thanks got the assistant now but it doesn't unlock the phone when I say ok Google, is this disabled on the one plus 3?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 948 ✭✭✭daraghwal

    Has worked for me. Did you set it up in the Google app? I think there's a few settings within the app that have to be set to do it.

    Anyone else still having issues with the screen being activated by your ear/face while on a call? Very annoying. Turned on hotspot while on a call.
