The latest phones are Zzzzzz... - OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Went to Best Buy to check out the existing phone lineups. Anyone else find the current handset lineups to be lacking and uninteresting?
I'm sticking with my OP5 for the foreseeable future it looks like. I'd love to see a new handset that has the feel/quality of the Nexus 6 again.

I have a OP3T and a OP5 and wouldn't trade either of them for any new phone on the market. If it were up to me OP would just release a new 3T every year with updated internals until the end of time.

Thanks!

Thanks, but I was just looking to express that nothing since the OP5 has really been interesting as a device. I'm not looking for advice on what to buy.

agreed.
I really like the front fingerprint scanner for desk work. (6T got it in the front, but need to wake up the device first).
I really like offscreen nav button, imo its the ''android'' signature.
3.5 mm for my ath-m50 s.
I mean yeah, I wont change it until its too slow. and money its not a issue.
I'm trying to reduce my consumption, and the OP5 was the best back then. Pretty sure it will remain fast even if its 5-6 year old.
My best smart phone was the desire Z from HTC. 2010 to 2015. What a piece of tech. Change it since 364 mb ram wasn't enough to run google maps anymore.

Hello XDA :)

Hey everyone, Just hopped on board after long time of using the forums, figured I might as well start posting and learning more and more.
My name is Kris, and it all started for me on the original android phone (G1) and now am upgraded to the G2
I also work in mobile sales.
I'll post pictures of screens, and more detailed backround when I hit my limit...
Welcome aboard

Thanks a bunch, is there an easier way to get approved, kinda stinks that I can't post pictures or have a sig
There is no other way.
Be patient and once you become an active member with more posts you´ll have all XDA features unlocked
Yeah, I read that it was like 12 posts or something? I'm not worried about it, i hate spam bots just as much as anyone else.
Okay so more about me now
I'm from Cincinnati, OH, always had a love for electronics, gaming, mma, and cars.
We'll start with the electronics, I am currently using the temp rooted overclocked HTC Vision :G2 and am loving every second of it.
I play a ton of xbox 360 (COD, Halo, UFC) also have a modded console, and such.

had 7 of them for a while, bought broken ones and fixed them, had a Jtag also.
And onto cars, I had my dream car, but wasn't the right time to own it, so I sold it. I am currently just driving around a 05 civc.
Meet my 94 Supra TT
Hope this all works out for a better introduction. Like I said, I hope to stay an active member, as I'd really like to know how to create apps and such.
That is the best introduction i have ever seen!!!
I my self are a xbox 360 fixing enthusiast!
I got a premium for free not reading discs and it only cost me £40 for a new drive!
then i got an elite for free with rrod, but i couldn't fix it. So i got £26.09 when i sold it on eBay.
So i bought a Ps3 off eBay that didn't read discs and that come to a total of £118, and they are about £160 second hand.
Anyway, nice supra!
Thanks man, I really tried to wait until I could kinda show everything, besides just talking about it. If anyone ever really needs me, I'll probably be hanging out in the G2 section, until I get put on a concession line and get the incredible, and Evo

Whilst I appreciate your input, your one post count doesn't instill me with great confidence and much faith in your device experience.
How comes you have a device? Pictures?

Since the OP just joined I would take his posts with a grain of salt until he posts pictures with his username written on a piece of paper next to it
Wow I wish I could get this phone soon. But I'm stuck with a Dinc2

He joined a while ago just never posted. But I share the sentiment and ask OP to post the picture of his phone with his username. Our doubt is understandable.

I think someone in another thread said it won't be released for 8/9 days. I believe that's what they said anyway.
Pics or [insert appropriate 4 letter acronym].
P.S. Is it the 8gb or 16 gb version?
Pics or it didn't happen

? Possible White Nexus 4 @ Carphone Warehouse? UK

I went into my local CPW yesterday to ask about the availability of the N4 this week, the girl I spoke to looked it up (big screen flashing up warning NOT to give customers any info and to keep stock in the back etc)
I asked if she could look up the price for SIM fee and she tried another approach, searching on the system for lg nexus 4, a simple screen popped up with the price for 2 nexus 4's.... now, unless my eyes deceived me, I saw one for "nexus 4" and one for "nexus 4 White" (both said £389.99 or similar)
Obviously as I wasn't looking for that info it didn't really sink in until a moment or two later so by that time the screen had been closed etc.... just wondering if anyone had seen anything similar? I don't want to cause any undue excitement, pant wetting etc but surely it's not beyond the realms of possibility? I had a quick search but couldn't see any mention of it...
Anybody? Maybe the o2 exclusivity thing has the white one as part of it?
I hate white phones so not interested, but one of you lot might be into it!
We will find out tomorrow I suppose, but you heard it here first eh!
(....probably been old news for a while or complete rubbish so slinks off to cry....)

Yeah there was a picture on Twitter a while back showing a CPW display that had both black and white options on it.

Ah, it's right enough then... I thought for a second I'd imagined it. I read that article too, must have been before the update with the white option.
Sorry for the pointless post then!

Strange we haven't heard anything official from either Google or LG about it... Wonder how it looks, as my Gnex is the white version.

The smooth back matte panel can easily get damaged, a case is a good idea on this phone, but the most annoying flaw, and I'm guessing its hardware since the GNEX had the same issue and it did not get fixed with software updates. Compared to the N4 is quite noticable.

Am I reading this right? You were expecting the easily damaged back panel of the GNex to get fixed with a software update?

[FUN] A way to become hTC 10

Let's see the modded back of hTC One M8 trying to be alike hTC 10
The story begins since the phone felt down and got some scratch, and soon he realizes he has to do something and with the inspiration from newest hTC flagship, he had spent more than five hours to make hTC One M8 back looks alike our newest, hTC 10. So surprising !
Work done by a Vietnamese hTC Fan and he called it's a hTC 18

Neat.
What tools did he use? It actually gave me an idea to polish my whole, scratched up phone.
he was asked to provide the instruction video already, since it's available I will post for your reference

So, any information about that video?
i too wanted to do something about my scratched htc one m8, i tried engraving something at the back. ended up ruining it more.
Buying another phone is not an option. am open to any cool mods on the phone.

Looks like op won't answer about how this was done.
So if you don't want to risk ruining it even more and got few coins to spare i recommend you wraps from dbrand.com
Ugly just like htc 10
lol)))
i kinda like it
Daaaaaaaaaamn
