Factory reset leaves the phone the way it was when you first turned it on, with no Google account or apps. All your own app info will be tied to your own Google account

Because it's still there, just the data blocks get turned off, anyone with tech skills can get it back.

Do your factory reset in recovery, select wipe data/factory reset and it will wipe the data partition

Ok, thanks.

So just do the below and that's it? I found the guide below (Because I didn't know how to reset in recovery?)

• Enable encryption
• Shut down the phone, and turn it back on while holding the Volume Down button until you feel it vibrate.
• Once in Simple Recovery, select "wipe cache partition" and swipe to the right or press the power button to select it.
• Continue once you get the "Cache wipe complete" message.
• Select "wipe data / factory reset" and confirm to fully reinitialize your ROM.

Thanks for your help, Im not very knowledgeable about phones (resetting, flashing, etc)

Yes, that's it or very similar depending on what recovery that is based in.

Thanks. What way would you reset the OPO?

Boot to recovery, it should be similar to what you posted. Different versions of recovery are laid out slightly different but should be very similar. Clear the cache, then do factory reset

Thats the exact the same thing I posted from the guide I found Ill just follow that since I don't know any other way.

So if this app data isn't accessible to a buyer of a 2nd hand phone, what data are 2nd hand phone sellers worried about another person accessing?

I was concerned the buyer of my phone could access data like notes from my Evernote account. From what I gather, you say thats not possible? So what data should I be concerned about getting into the hands of the buyer of my phone?

Thanks again, much appreciated.

When I bought a full screen assembly for my OPO, the one you can just swap out no need for heatgun and glue etc, it only cost me about €40, now all of them seem to cost €80, can anyone find a cheap one anywhere?

Hey guys thinking of selling my one plus one, Been giving me no problems but I really like the miui rom I have installed and am thinking of getting the mi4c. What is a good price for the one plus one in good condition about 5 months old?

I'm looking at doing the same, from adverts 190 to 200

Incremental update out.

Im rooted and have some Xposed things installed.

How can I best / easily do this update and keep root?

Dont have time to trawl through other forums to figure this out with work these days.

Thanks,

gar

Do you not just root again after the update?

What custom roms are people running?

I've been dirty flashing since I got the phone & my phone is always being kept awake by the mobile radio. So battery life is less than a day at present.

I dunno whether to clean flash stock or delve into the myriad of custom roms floating about.

I'm quite happy with (rooted) stock, but the mobile radio battery drain is a real pain.

Store credit or cash?

What is the update for?

Some bug fixes (battery) and security upgrades such as for Stagefright. Small enough update.

The new oneplus X looks like serious value, pretty much same specs as oneplus one but only 5 inch 1080 screen. €269. Missing NFC and only wireless n but that shouldn't be a major issue

You gain a second SIM slot and expandable memory, must haves for a lot of people. You do lose 500 mAh from the battery and 0.5 inches of screen though. I think they could be onto a winner with it though, will do more to cement them as a company than the Oneplus Two imo.
