Yeah I use these big Samsung ones ant they're perfect:

Rock solid grip but still possible to slip it in an out one handed, you can use the touchscreen through the plastic aswell.

Running with my M7 feels like Ive a tablet on my arm so I can only imagine how stupid the OPO looks :pac:

Thargor · 27-10-2014 01:33AM

It does feel like strapping on a plate of armour at first but then you forget its there, running or cycling.

I have lightroom on the pc but I thought it might be fun to have something on the phone, got plenty of storage space for an app anyway.

I generally don't use the phone for much photography, just noormal quick shots when I don't have dslr to hand.

Meant to say I'll have a look at some of those apps mentioned above

Ardennes1944 · 27-10-2014 08:51AM

Of the several options you can add to cart when buying the phone, which is the best? Particuarly with the covers, are they bulky?

bryaner · 27-10-2014 02:21PM

Anyone suffering low volume during calls?

Ardennes1944 · 27-10-2014 03:57PM

If anyone has any reason for me not buy this phone they have 2min 34 seconds :pac:

Just got mine booked. I was very lucky, the site was mad. Just couldn't get my pre-order to go any further. Suddenly out-of-the blue it started to work but it still took about 20/30 refreshes before I finally got it sorted. After getting through the payment I was still not able to back to the site again. I did get my email confirmations though so I feel secure.

JUST 15 MINUTES LEFT IF ANYONE WANTS TO TRY - Time now 15:43

The deadline has been extended by an additional 2 hours ... so no rush

Don't buy it guys, go and buy the N6 for 700 quid or the Iphone 6 plus for a grand, well worth your money, this is just a cheap phone for 350 EUR that does exactly the same as the N6 and the Iphone 6

:D:D.

I have this weird notification like beeping noise on my OPO. When it starts its constant until I lock the screen. Any ideas?

MisterKipling · 27-10-2014 07:06PM

so have this phone three weeks....its awesome! cannot fault it..that is until this morning when i installed cm11 lollipop theme from playstore...installed fine but then i get a warning screen telling me my lock screen failed to initialise...!!
For love nor money i couldn't get rid of it..so i painstakingly had to go into settings by hitting ok on the warning screen and using the split second i had before the warning flashed again....
Then when i get into settings the phone reboots..

So then i read on xda about clearing the cache and doing a factory reset...done so and now the phone gets to the welcome screen where u choose which language and then it reboots...and reboots...stuck in a loop..
I've seen plenty of posts online but I'm not tech savvy enough to follow them...balls

i'm so afraid i'll brick it !!

wotzgoingon · 27-10-2014 07:14PM

Wipe it and re-install from fastboot.

MisterKipling · 27-10-2014 07:17PM

dude i can't get across how useless i am....! this is massive outta my comfort zone!! Can u be more specific....i don't mean that to come across as I'm being a smart ass....!!
All i read online is about command prompt, fast boot, side loaders, debugging...bootloaders...all double dutch to me !!

wotzgoingon · 27-10-2014 07:30PM

Both of these guides will help

and its back to working order after a lot of reboots...admittedly I don't know how I managed to get it working but happy days !! cheers buddy !!

I've been experiencing an intermittent crash over the last while, just wondering if anyone has noticed anything similar.

Basically the phone completely locks up when typing into the address bar in chrome. Completely unresponsive.

Now the notification icon animation is still going e.g. data arrows, but the phone is completely unresponsive & can only be recovered by holding down the power button.

Sometimes it can happen twice in a few mins, but mostly it's every few days. I'm using Swype, the flux theme & twilight so it could be a combination of any of these or more likely just Chrome at fault.

Anyone have any similar experiences? I've enabled back button kill option to see if I can recover next time without a reboot. Tried clearing cache, but I'd prefer not to have to clear chrome data entirely. Having yo re-login to every site is a massive pain.

jodaw · 28-10-2014 05:17PM

Wondering can anyone help me out with this. My OPO will only connect to the 2G network on tesco. All APN settings seems correct but it will not connect to the network.

Got a new micro sim and it is working in other phone but not in OPO. Date enabled on and data roaming on.

Phone is out of the box. Got it delivered to germany but i doubt that should make any difference as it is the internation version.

Thinking of just selling it because i'm getting annoyed with the hassle.

I can't imagine you will be able to sell it very easily if it doesn't connect to anything buy 2G you don't want to be selling on a faulty phone. I would take it into a Tesco mobile shop and see if they can figure it out and if not go about returning it.

digitaldr · 28-10-2014 05:34PM

I've got an OPO on Tesco mobile 3G works grand - better than my Moto G. I've attached my APN for what's it's worth. I have my preferred network type set to 3G

Would'nt be selling on a faulty phone. Would be selling on a phone just out of the box shipped direct from oneplus:rolleyes:

I cannot get it to connect to tesco. That does not mean someone else cannot

Thanks for that.

I have two apn's

The tesco mobile interent apn which is selected with the green button beside it.

Below this is the MMS APN but i cannot select this.

The first apn did not have the setting this your one does so i entered them manually and saved. The second apn has the same settings as yours but i cannot select this.

After entering settings still will not connect to 4g preferred or 3g preferred.

The other phone which i am using the same settings as you will connect but there is only one apn (tesco mobile internet), not two like mine.

Would the original setup of the phone make a difference? Since i set it up without a sim in and pretty much skipped all steps with google accounts and the like. Would that make a difference? Is there a factory reset option?

Do you know anyone that would let you borrow their micro sim from another network so you can see if its just a tesco problem or a general problem? Strange to have such different settings than digitaldr. Maybe try a factory reset and enter the same settings they have.

Is there any programs to backup photos etc before doing a reset?

I always copy them over to computer first better safe than sorry! I think any of the cloud apps do that dropbox, onedrive, googledrive etc should all do the job.

Googles own photos app that auto uploads any pictures or videos I take.
It should be preinstalled on your phone. You have to open the app and tell it to auto upload your pictures.

jodaw · 29-10-2014 09:17AM

seem to have the phone working now with tesco and a solid signal.

Done a factory reset and again no joy. The difference was when i connected to my wifi and went into phone settings and downloaded and installed all updates.

Signal has not dropped since
