Anyone know a good site for themes and mods? I know I can browse different forums but it hard to get a good over view

Check back on some of my posts, I posted about where to get the themes but cant for the life of me find it now.

There's threads on xda and the one+ forum but just wanted was there a site just for this that I can browse through without all the comments people make in normal threads

Any one recommend a good case for this phone?

I have the Tudia Ultra slim case which works fine and I'm happy with it but if I was buying another case I'd probably get the Diztronic Flexible TPU Case, see http://www.amazon.co.uk/Diztronic-Flexible-TPU-Case-OnePlus-Matte-Black/dp/B00MBS1NA0/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1415525398&sr=8-14&keywords=oneplus+one

Hi, quick update on missing phone. ParcelMotel got back to me saying the package arrived damaged to their depot in Belfast. Rang DHL in UK only to be told that they will not deal with me because I am not the supplier. I have opened a ticket with ONEPLUS and also have opened a claim with PayPal.

Anyway, I received an invite and purchased the phone using Royal Mail as delivery. I received the phone the other day, however I have one small problem. I am with 3 and when I go out of network coverage, I can only get G or Edge reception. I have to manually choose "3 Irl" in "Setting > Mobile Networks > Network Operators."
Is there any way of keeping the 3 Irl settings. The Access point name that is ticked is "3 IE MMS".

Quick update:
I have received an email from Paypal with an offer of a refund from OnePlus. Glad to get it sorted, now just have to wait for the money to get to my account.

BTW is anyone else having a problem when the phone roams. Mine does not revert back to 3 automatically it stays on roaming. I have to manually choose the Network Operator. I do not have mobile data turned on, I just turn it on and off when I need it.
Would it be best to leave data on all the time?

I'm with 3 and I have mobile data always on but data roaming disabled.

Yeah this is really annoying for me as I go accross the border for work every day. keep having to swtich it manually and cus i'm driving i don't change it until i get home or in work which is annoying for anyone trying to contact me around those times.

daytob · 11-11-2014 08:41PM

can you not do it llama or similar apps?

I just ordered one via mailboxde.com - used Parcelmotel for my previous ones so not familiar with the process. Not sure what you mean - are they just asking you to choose your shipping method and pay for it?

xtal191 · 11-11-2014 09:12PM

What cases and screen protectors are you using for this?

jozi · 11-11-2014 09:26PM

What's the screen pinch issue I keep reading about?

Is it where the screen jumps all over the place rile pinching?

It's paid, and I have the forwarding form filled out, but it's still flashing 'Ready to send'

digitaldr · 11-11-2014 10:28PM

Maybe it's just waiting to be picked up by the courier?

NTC · 11-11-2014 11:30PM

Just got my one today. Having fun seeing it up.

Any suggestions or tips?

digitaldr · 12-11-2014 02:18AM

Nova launcher, turn on the onscreen buttons as easier to reach and brighter than the stock ones. Have a good play around with themes - remember you can mix and match elements from different themes eg I mainly use ltimize but prefer holo style icons.

Lose screen space so I dont see a reason for on screen buttons. There is only 3 buttons to see. They're slightly visible but with only three, very well spaced out buttons, its impossible to miss them!

tippgirl123 · 12-11-2014 07:39AM

Anyone having charging issues?

daytob · 12-11-2014 07:44AM

no but I really dont use the charging cable and plug that came with it

OP available here. 64GB + Cyanogen mod.

€308

digitaldr · 12-11-2014 09:46AM

That's a good price alright but there would be a good chance that the savings could be wiped out by customs charges. Also checkout this post from an opo employee. Looks like the opo you've linked to does not have the cyanogenmod logo on the back so is probably the Chinese version.

Personally I think it's better to buy direct from opo and ship via Parcelmotel or mailboxde.com which apparently is a bit cheaper. Invites are not that hard to come by with a bit of work here and/or the opo forums. I've bought 3 in the past month! Only got one sharable invite so far though and it's already given away.

Forgot to say that double tap to wake/sleep and gestures for torch, music camera work really well.

Thargor · 12-11-2014 11:28AM

No they don't, bet he'll end up turning them off the third time he takes it out of his pocket and finds the flashlight on and the battery half dead and red hot. Same for the music player deciding to turn on at random when you're walking around.

Double tap to wake works great though, will never be able to go back to a phone that doesnt have that feature now.

digitaldr · 12-11-2014 12:49PM

Never had any issues with gestures so I'd say worth a try at least.

Thargor · 12-11-2014 12:53PM

If you're using a case you're probably good to go with them, maybe I just got unlucky with the inside pocket on my main jacket, it seemed to be doing something with the phone every time I looked.

I really like my iPhone ear buds (latest ones) but the mic & buttons don't work with the opo. I've ordered this converter from eBay. Wouldn't be too fussed about the buttons (even if one works I could use the headset button controller app like I did with my Moto G) but definitely need the mic to work. If it doesn't do the job I've read that the Amazon premium headset works well with the opo.

Well finally arrived.

The microphone works fine and great build quality but again only the middle button works so I guess I'll have to use the headset button controller app to emaulate the volume buttons. I also ordered another CTIA to OMTP 3.5mm Male to 3.5mm Female Earphone Adapter Cable

as it was really cheap and much less awkward than the one above. I'll post here when I receive it.

Cased now but was uncased for a good while. Also I always keep it in my jeans pocket.

PS Congratulations on using you're instead of your - a rare thing on the Internet!
