Anyone excited for OnePlus?

[Morgoth780]

Anyone have an invite I could have/buy?

 

[cliftonite]

Im having a fairly big problem. The phone will make or receive calls but disconnect a second later. Has anyone else experience this?

Are you pressing the power button by accident when you hold it to your head?

Also had a dock printed up

Got an invite available if anyone is interested. Not going to use, holding out for the nexus 6

does anyone here also have a HTC one m8?
I am debating between the two and the oneplus seems to have a bigger battery and 1 GB more ram...but I like the HTC size and build quality was wondering if anyone have IRL experiences between the two....

Gotcha, whyd you get rid of it?
I had to warranty my oneplus cause of crippling touchscreen issues, which it seems like they still have not fixed! I am waiting on my new OPO... might just sell it off instead. I really like the phone too (especially the battery life) but its alittle too large for one hand use which I find annoying also.

The HTC seems more premium but I dont know if the smaller battery will drive me nuts... I hate my nexus 4 because of the crap battery.

What touchscreen issues did you experience? Others have mentioned touchscreen issues but others have said they didn't experience such issues so I'm trying to determine if it's something inherent to the phone or just lemons.

There were some "ghost" touch issues when typing. These were eliminated in 38r on mine and just updated to 44s last night and it seems to be very fluid. First day on the new build so I'm waiting to see how battery life is.

44s ota ?

I had various issues with after a few days, the touchscreen would no longer be responsive. I had latest CM11 nightlies with the latest touchscreen drivers but nothing but multiple reboots would fix it...

Annoying as all hell. So I warrantied the phone... otherwise it was great.

Does anyone else find the OPO alittle too big? I'm not a big fan of using two hands on a phone and I find my hands getting tired and cramping when im using one hand to swipe all over the big ass screen... Plus it sucks alittle bit putting in your pocket.

Yeah I had the 1+1 for about 1 1/2 months and it was good. I did have the occasional hiccup with the unresponsive screen upon trying to hit my pin to unlock the phone but other than that the phone was pretty darn fast etc. Battery was good, screen was good, size compared to my note 2 was a lot smaller in profile etc. and the 64gb of space is just pure awesomeness. I sold mine because I was getting a note 4.. which i did and returned to tmobile because it was bloated and battery life sucked and it lagged like a mofo.

As for the HTC ONE M8 I've been wanting to try it for a while and was lucky to buy it new unlocked/developers edition for $299 from HTC directly. Let's hope the battery life is decent! I'm going to say the phone with the best battery that I've had so far is my LG G2... love it and it's seems to be a good size too for one handed use.

Wireless charging is a dealbreaker for me. That said, I've ordered one for my cousin and one for my brother and made the order for the N6 for me

 

[SpacemanSpiffVT]

^ N6 doesn't have wireless charging....

My wife's OPO got the 44S OTA this morning, I'll check it out tonight after work. Did everyone else already get it? Her phone used to mine and it's from the 7/11 datecode, I wonder why it took so long for the update to hit? Is it regional or based on device age?

Lucky you!!!! That is a great price for a new M8. Welcome to the club, I love this phone. The battery life is WAY better than my S4 (even with Android Wear). It is finally the first phone I don't really have to worry about the battery during the day. I hope the GPe Lollipop upgrade comes soon!



On topic, too bad the One Plus doesn't work on Verizon. I have a friend who is a big guy and needs a new phone.

I did the update this morning. It was a quick update. The phone feels more responsive and It hasn't given me any issues yet. I'll have to check on the battery later in the afternoon to see how much better or worse it is. Usually I''m around 60-65% at 4pm with regular use.

So if it fares better~ then all good with me.

I just got my OPO yesterday with two OTA updates to apply. Probably took five minutes between both. Spent a lot more time getting all my apps installed.

I'm impressed so far. Big step up from my Nexus 4 in performance (better core, real LTE, etc) and just the right size.

 

[Megatomic]

I talked to my wife, she's seen nothing new so far. Translated: it didn't mess anything up. lol

 

[Radeon962]

44s ota ?

Yes OTA. I got it the other night.

 

[Megatomic]

No difference noted, but then again that device has been problem free since I first got it. The big change on that phone are the apps updated for Material Design. Looks great.

what apps? Arent Gapps independent anyway?

 

[Megatomic]

Yup, I was referring to the Gapps that were updated on her phone today. I get all the latest from APKMirror but my wife does not.

Nice that their factory image also updates Gapps. That's pretty neat because those material updates have been only coming out for a week or two.
