    Yes root and I'd suggest you look at changing the screen density. The phone looks a lot better with a dpi of 380.
    I used the app textroider_dpi on the play store to make the change.

    Seconded on changing the screen density you'll get so much more info on the screen if you do.

    Having said that some people do prefer the bigger icons and text and stuff at the default density of 480

    I prefer it stock as I came from a Note II with the same size screen and bigger icons and once I changed the dpi on this phone I did not like the smaller text and icons.

    Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, I'm guessing not, but I'm not sure what other thread is suitable for my question, sorry.

    About to order this but just wondering if there is anyway to get around the delivery to get it free or cheaper?

    €20 seems a bit steep to me?

    There is no other way but considering you are still getting it cheaper than buying from the UK(old way) even with postage I do not see the problem.

    Do any apps stop working with a changed dpi?

    I found all apps work but you do end up having to sideload the occasional one because Google Play doesn't think your phone is compatible, it doesnt happen often but it was enough that I stopped messing with dpi after my last wipe.

    Cheers, would it be a case of setting it back to install the app and then change dpi again?

    I've have my Samsung gear setup with the opo but all call audio is sent through the watch even if the call is answered on the phone. Any way around this ?

    Another thing to note is updates will not install once you change the dpi.

    Lads I started a FAS course and I want to have my phone be on vibrate only during working hours. Is this a built in feature or will I need an app? Blooming thing went off this morning when the boss was speaking to us all!! Something to do with profiles or summat?

    You could download Trigger. I have it on my phone and it works well.

    I just press Volume down a few times to set it to vibrate only.

    I wonder has everyone here complaining about battery done this:

    Settings > Privacy > Privacy Guard > 3 dots in the top right > Show built in Apps > Long Press on Google Play services then change Allowed to Deny on the Wake Up and Keep Awake entries. Then Reboot.

    Ive basically restored my battery performance to the way it was on 25R with the latest OTA update by doing that, standby lasts for days again and I wont bother reverting now.

    I bought one of the cases on the one plus one site when I was ordering the phone. I've since put on the screen protector that's currently on adverts.ie. What I need though is a more durable case as I've dropped the phone twice and it's cracked the corners of the case (which I'm not too worried about) but the falls have left marks in the exposed silver edge. Can anyone recommend something <€20 that I can get if a few days?

    Thanks

    Is this phone affected by the Heartbleed bug?

    It was a big story last year. The current phone Im using is vulnerable to the Heartbleed bug (Im on Android 4.1)

    if someone could check using the app below, I'd appreciate it.

    For sheer tank protection you can't go wrong with the Tudia but it comes from the states so will take a few weeks:

    Does it say

    "The version of OpenSSL on your device is affected by the Heartbleed bug.

    But the vulnerable behaviour is not enable

    Everything is OK" ??

    Thanks. Thats bizarre, i though the phone would have been updated so it would be affected by the heartbleed bug.

    Hi all,

    Back again with another question - need to order a case for the phone tonight or tomorrow, and want to get a flip/fold over case for it.

    Can anyone recommend any?

    I've been recommended this case, and if I can't get a suitable flip/fold over cover, I'll order this one instead.

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/TUDIA-Bumper-Protective-OnePlus-Smartphone/dp/B00LWSRVN8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1426406740&sr=8-1&keywords=tudia+oneplus+slim+ultra

    Will be getting one of these protectors for the screen also, so have that sorted, just the case I need.

    To the poster above you, I have the bumper case and like it. I also have the ozrl screen protector, again I'd like it allot. Easy to apply with little air bubble issues. It does give the screen bit more of a sheen in sunlight and at first feels like it makes the screen I guess more slick less precise with thumb movement. After 2 days I forgot about it and I'm happy!

    Thinking of taking the leap from my SG 3 to a One Plus One. I just have 2 questions I was hoping somebody here could answer for me?

    1. What is the wi-fi signal like on it?

    2. I live in a rural area and at home I can only make mobile calls in certain rooms in the house :) Is the signal good on a One Plus One?

    Thanks.

    Depends on the price really. How much will it set you back and will you be in 4g areas all the time to appreciate it
