    No, 12.1-29159516-NIGHTLY-bacon. Android 5.1.1

    In on the version I returned to which i manually installed. I'm rooted with TWRP. Do you know if I can install the version you have on top of my version or do I have to do a full wipe etc?

    Full wipe I'd say to be sure of no problems as it is a new version 5.1.1

    You will need to download the nightly version and gapps the correct one (one to go with 5.1.1) But once you install it all new versions(everyday, you don't have to install each new version) download through the phone OTA but you have to manually press download.

    Hey guys, I have a strange issue that over the weekend out of nowhere my One refused to charge. I tried numerous cables and they all had the same result, the battery light would flicker for a second and then the battery indicator on the top right of the screen would indicate that it was charging but the percentage would never actually move. Oddly enough, the percentage doesn't really decrease either when charging but before long my phone will be completely unusable as I can't keep the thing permanently charged! I am now at 5% battery and have been battling with this since Friday.

    I have contacted support but have not heard anything back yet and don't have high hopes. Does anyone have any suggestions? My phone is soon going to be completely dead. I've seen a couple of people in the forums with similar issues but noone seemed to have a resolution, is it worth a factory reset?

    I have poor connection to 3G since I updated anyone have similar problem? I have full signal then just randomly drops out and comes back again. Is there any fixes or any help?

    Thanks

    From someone that has both - i can't understand how you could choose a 5S over the OPO. I know it's horses for courses etc.....

    I didn't I bought the OPO as I said in my post.

    Probably because Android is a ****e OS.

    Sorry if this has been asked before. When I recieve a call/text all I get is the number and not the name even though I have imported my contacts. Anyone had this problem or find a way around it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,210 ✭✭✭maximoose


    Using a Huawei Ascend Y330 while I get my OPO screen repaired, christ this small screen is killing me :pac:

    If you know the contact the txt is from but its showing up as just a number (formatted +353 I reckon), go the contact and change the number from 08x to +3538x.

    I've had similar issues, signal will show full with H+ or H/3g and the data connection will not work. Turn flight mode on and off and it works again. Very frustrating.

    Does anyone have any solution for this? I'm on 5.0.2

    Have u a link to the correct gapps for the 5.1.1 nightly?
    I have unlocked bootloader, rooted and have twrp installed. I have the link for the latest nightly but unsure where to get correct gapps.

    The latest nightly that fixes the touchscreen issues has been pulled as there is serious battery drain

    The contacts app is yet another thing which is quite sh1t on this phone. I have the opposite to you in that I have 5000 contacts from my email account which I cannot filter out.

    New OPO owner here.. My phone is running Cyanogen, so what should be my first stop in learning to customize the device? If anyone has any tips for using it feel free to share.

    It's running great so far, very happy with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,337 ✭✭✭CantGetNoSleep


    Can anyone recommend a longer and reliable USB cable which will work with the standard 2a charger at the same speed?

    That's lollipop, there's no longer an option to only show contacts with phone numbers. There are plenty on the market if you look

    BlackBerry playbook charger from Amazon. Buy two or three of them for a tenner.

    I was looking but they seem to be £6.73 each now - anywhere cheaper?

    EBay, I imagine. I dunno how many you want or whether you need all the interchangeable connections but I'd still pay that price for one. At the end of the day, you're splitting hairs over a few quid.

    +1 for these..
    I bought 2 last month and they charge the phone really quickly.
    Good and solid chargers too..

    Smashed my screen this morning, woe is me :(

    Has anyone attempted to replace the screen themselves? Easy/avoid?

    Changed my screen,.. ... Twice for my sins.

    First i slipped in Astro boots on a painted garage floor. It was wet at the time. Phone got body slammed.

    Second 2 months later flipped it onto a porcelain plate. Porcelain and smartphones do not mix.

    It is easy to change the screen takes about 30 minutes and it is not difficult to do.

    I bought screens from same source

    Zero! issues.

    Certainly would not be giving someone 140 Euro to change it. no thanks.

    Hi,

    I bought a cogito classic smart watch today. Guess what? The app is not compatible with the one plus. Doesn't really matter because I can't get the watch to turn on either. Shame. Good looking watch. Back to Harvey Norman I go.
    Watch I initially got had been opened before I bought it and turned on. The replacement Cogito classic I got turned on but I had to get in contact with cogito who emailed me the beta apk for the phone app. I also had to go to the phones own Bluetooth menu as oppose to the setting in the app to connect the phone and watch together. Everything works perfect now.

    Finally got around to rooting my OPO today.
    I have flashed 0518 nightly.

    Anyone recommend some decent apps for root?

    Does anyone know if it's possible to change the lock screen wallpaper?

    Yes, you set it in themes

    Anyone having touch screen issues?

    Only started happening me the other day. When I'm using Whatsapp or Facebook messenger on swipe keyboard, random keys will press even though my thumbs are no where near them. Very annoying when it takes 5 minutes to write a 5 word message! Also, sometimes when I'm drawing the unlock pattern, it won't register certain points and takes a few tries to get the design drawn. Also happens sometimes when I'm trying to swipe to close open apps. Any ideas?

    It's a known issue, cyanogen had a fix released but had to pull it because of battery drain but expect a proper fix soon


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,072 ✭✭✭mass_debater


    There's a one click toolkit released for the OnePlus One, looks good, will be a great help to some. does lots of stuff, unlock, flash ROMS, backup, apply root, backup EFS etc.

    I'm on Oxygen OS and have a bit of a major issue which I've seen some people report but no solutions.

    When I receive a call and it's not answered, as in a missed call, it is logged as a call received not missed. When I check the log there is a green arrow as if I answered it?

    There is no notification so I'm not phoning people back as I don't realise they've phoned me!
