i suspect...

they don't have the expertise to repair this phone yet. their chinese supplier probably got some way for them to help claim manufacturer warranty -- so i guess local repairs will not be done.

as such, any unit not bought from them, its very much trial and error but seeing how busy they are, probably not worth anyone's time and money to work on repairs.

ShaneThong there you have it! one generous and helpful bro. just need to find your way to Kepong ok?

so... this one got yellow tint or not?


yes... if see closely, there's an AIXUAN glass SP on it. thanks INGfusion. applied the SP over the long weekend...


and... the fugly clear case... have to emphasize... MATTE clear case.

kinda realised too late... hahaha...

just tried out greenify.

basically it put my twitter apps into hibernation. if i hibernate my twitter apps, i guess it means it won't check for updates and i'll need to manually launch it?

hmm... isn't that just fancy word for 'force stop'?

ah, good way to put it. i guess ya... i forgot that Force Stop meant exiting program and it'll take 'longer' to restart apps.


Refresh here means just click on the apps (on homescreen/ apps drawer) to 'wake it up again', right? once wake, it stays awake or greenify will hibernate it shortly after that?

i think maybe i'll cut some old jeans, use UHU glue and stick the cut jeans into the clear case... become denim case.

eh, the other 'one' thread got v3 only ka?!?

check my post with the image (one page before this)... and you tell me still got or not... heh heh...

i see don't have. someonesim say got... sort of...

what you see is after 2-3 weeks of not-very-often use... reason being still no SIM card. so just used for bit of browsing...

but ya, i'd say the yellow tint goes off. that's why i never bothered to ask for another set when i first saw the yellow tint... very sure its glue and would go away...

having said the above, sometimes the yellow tint on a different unit could be genuine defect... i can't guarantee 100% la... but... very unlikely lor. i'd say better to check on dead pixels (and dem... what's that other term... lazy pixel, or... i forgot again...)

ori size but cropped image.


on closer look now... can see still got only a bit left of yellow tint on the bottom left of the phone (on the photo, that means top left). right side of the phone (or on photo, it's bottom left) seems to be clear... no yellow tint liao...

a few Qs...

* CM11s... is there a way to manually remove some permissions from apps (from stock rom with no root permissions)?

* PA ROM... i'm getting curious about this... really nice? got those pop-up video player and pop-up browser?

i dun think got "save a lot of time"... we were not even putting any effort to remove the yellow tint. just use as normal as and when we could -- it's still without sim card, so most of the time, screen is off anyway.

so for those not so fussy... it does look like over time and use, the yellow will go away. no need to intentionally UV it, put under sun, etc... we just used it like normal and yes, many times, phone is idle with screen off...

well, i don't go intentionally choose. but knowing that it will go away, i rather not waste time going through one by one... and if don't have, don't buy? a bit difficult if someone needs to get the phone on that day. and if they are just going to give up OnePlus One and get something else, kinda 'sad'... since OnePlus One is actually one impressive device, for its price.

not that i'm not a picky customer. i do check for dead pixels and won't hesitate to return the phone if i see one dead pixel.

but yellow tint, for me... is a no issue.

have to agree with DannyOP... i have not heard of such 'news' as well...

please share links where u read, regardless of whether the site is in Chinese, Amenian, Japanese, Afrikaan, etc...

guys... if i'd quickly grab the aixuan glass SP. that's one good glass SP. i shared some photos a few pages back. cut out is nice too.

what kind of bugs are you expecting? no need to read from v1 to v4 la. imagine note 2 buyers going thru v20+ before buying...

but at least READ PAGE 1. we try to list possible issues and fixes there...

just remember that once moved to the Android phone, always better to then SYNC contacts with Google/ Gmail.

in fact, moving from iPhone to Android, I always suggest importing contacts to Google first. Then sign in with your username and everything appears. just remember to periodically backup (export your contacts) -- in case you accidentally massive wipe your Google contacts (i dun see how anyone can end up doing that, but never know)

wah lau eh... 2nd one gone. you better just pay someone to stick for you.

of go shop, buy charger and then ask the lenglui do you a favour and stick for you.

or purposely spoil it so can use rhino shield instead?

honestly, its just a piece of paper or two. can't bring everything with you??? better than having to *facepalm* and then tell the fellow you come back another day coz the form is at home... collecting dust.

we passed the 50 user marks...

ok, not trying to start a flame war... but i'm just curious... anyone can fairly compare between the ONEs (HTC vs OnePlus). what do you say?

won't say its 'beta' version. what i understand, most of the coding is good to go. just waiting for the next version of Android which will make ART the default runtime.

the issue here is more to do with apps. some apps are not coded properly for ART yet. the good developers are already working on this and better ones have no issues running on either one.

ya, what i understand, usually its the games itself. but i know many who can't live without games. after all, what's the point of having quad core if the phone is just gonna be used for whatsapp and LINE?

hmmm... interesting.

i mean, i know that games are the ones that usually drive the need for better/ faster processors. same applies to PC industry.

else... most of our other apps... usually can do with even dual core, no?

but ya, i know... there's also energy efficiency, etc...

for me, i do have some games which keeps me occupied during my 'free' times like: Spirit Stone (card collection game that uses the bejeweled-style game), Asphalt (just in case anyone needs to see how 'smooth' the phone is), and FF3. i still have a few Square Enix games bought during sales but yet to start... :S

@benny888 you should try Bards Tale. really nice. i guess u could try it on your Nexus 7.
