[Q] One plus problems after using for 3 weeks - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey ppl ,
I finally got my hands on the One plus. I am from India. The phone is pretty awesome and I am totally impressed and happy. However there are a few issues that I am facing and havent come across anyone else having these issues. Mostly i think it is a software issue. So here are my issues :
The mobile data connection is a problem. I switch it on and sometimes only it gets connected. Most of the time it shows -'no internet connection'. I have tried everything. Reboot , Airplane mode on/off. But still no hope. It works for a brief amount of time and again losses connection. I dont no what the problem is. I checked with my network provider and tried settin APN again. Still no hope.
I have installed Poweramp music player for music. I also use Google play. Usually in both the players , when you lock the screen , u will get the album art with the controls. But for me it is not getting displayed. I dont get any. I am using slide as the lock screen setting and still it is not showing the controls for both google play as well as poweramp.
Phone sometimes heats up too much when playing games.
I am totally in love with the phone but these problems keep bugging me and I feel pissed if it doesnt work as expected. So please help me. I am desperate for a solution....
Thanks in advance

Poweramp you have to enable lock screen stuff in settings.
Losing connection it could be many things, try going to a different network mode like edge to start ruling things out

Skype Kills Hardware Keyboard

This happens always when I initiate a chat in skype... The keyboard just wont respond until reboot. Anyone knows the issue?
Are you connected over wifi? I have issue if my wifi power mode is set to best performance/least battery. For some reason it locks up my hardware keyboard.
... This seems to be the worst kind of issue because its kind of untraceable. Mostly it appears but sometimes doesn't. It can also happen after fresh reboot... it happens on wifi or data... it is occasional but mostly it is there. I'm desperate... one of the main reasons to buy a WM device was to stay mobile online in msn & skype
im facing same issues, with Wifi enabled.
Keyboard becomes totally unusable/unresponsive, have tried everything found in these forums with no luck. adjusting power/performance/best battery don't solve the issue for me.
this is taking me at the point to sell my Fuze that i was so happy with until this problems.
DP: anyway selling it with these issue would be consider as a hustling, so i can't iven sell it.
Lets keep this thread active
Well lets make some noise here... there must be a clever member/moderator who has a clue about this issue.
Anyone....
I've also expereicenced this with active wifi

Problem with Youtube App

I have been using the YouTube app since I got the phone and have been impressed. However when I used it today I notice that it is no longer producing preview pictures for the videos. To the left of the screen it used to generate a picture of the video, today however all I get is a dark grey box with a white TV symbol.
I have been playing around with the phone a lot, so thought it might have been something I'd done or installed, however I have done a hard reset and it is still happening.
Is this something to do with my phone or the YouTube service?
Anyone got any ideas?
I got the same problem. The first week it displayed the photo`s, but now ( the second week ) it wont display the pictures anymore...
my youtube just doesn't wok full stop. every time i start it, it just says '' there is no network connection right now, please try again later
any suggestions?
no connection? turn of proxyserver
I have the same problem with the preview pictures, so i guess the problem is on the youtube server side..
For the connection problem:
go to settings > connections > connections > "adjust my proxy server " or something like that. (mijn proxy server instellen in dutch)
Try turning off /removing the proxyserver there. (i had this problem with the preinstalled vodafone proxyserver. I removed it and everything works now)
i hope this works for you
Same for me, only worked for the first few days now I do not get the preview and I am not using a proxy server my connection is through wifi
I've tried reloading t-mobs settings and everytime i load youtube it still tells me that it has no network connection
i've tried having the phone using the automatic proxy setting and tried with it off (having it off is the only way that Msn will work as well, when i had it on, msn said there was no connection. so i guess it was something to do with that, however it wasn't)
should i try to reinstall youtube app? if so, where do i get the CAD?
ahhh soo annoying, really want to start hitting youtube when i have free time in class but no luck
This and the battery are the only faults i'm having with the TD2 (battery is still just as bad as the TD.
I carried out a hard reset and still found youtube previews not working.
me too ! no previews with Duttys HD 3.0 youtube player . I went back to youtube player v 1.6, without success, still no preview . Does anybody have the last version 2.5 wvga as a cab file to return back to the latest version, please ? Thank you.
hans
sorry, double post
Very strange!! it's started working again
Same here, it stopped working after a few days but just now I tried again & its working. Weird
Not so weird if it was something at Google's end that was the problem and they now fixed it. It's been reported on the HD forum to so not linked to the TD2.
Can confirm mine working too now.... thought it was something to do with T-mobile but was obviously 'booble'.
G
I have had no problems with the youtube app running at all. The thing with the pictue of the video not showing is due to it not fully loading. Bad reception I guess. Happened when I had like 2 bars.
I'm on T-mobile US so only have edge and it's worked pretty well. App works better than on my Elfin.
I also confirm it's back again today

GS4G Problems Driving me nuts - can someone else confirm these?

I love this phone when it's working. That's WHEN.
Here is a short list of some of the various problems I'm having consistently with the phone. It would be great if anyone else can confirm if these are happening to them. Would be nice to see if this is a problem with the GS4G in general or just with my specific unit. TIA.
1. Wifi sometimes cannot be turned on. Clicking it on will just result in the word error apearing. Nothing more. A reboot will always fix this.
2. Bluetooth will regularly have to be manually connected to the Sync in my Ford and it will arbitrarily disconnect from Sync in the middle of calls. Never had any bluetooth issues with the Ford with my s740 for more than a year. It's not the car.
3. Ringtones and notification sounds magically stop working. They simply act as if they are playing, but don't. vibration does work. Rebooting will always fix this.
4. Google Navigator will only speak to me when it feels like it. It will stop speaking mid route or not speak at all when it doesn't feel like it. No idea how to fix this one. Reboots or restarting the app don't help. It's random.
The good news is GPS on this phone is GREAT. The screen is AMAZING. Most of the time it's pretty fast. It's a bit laggy sometimes thanks to the bloatware I think. I used link2sd and partitioned the memory card. Also the memory card in this phone is CLASS 2!!! I have a Class 6 on order so that should help.
ALL the problems existed prior to partitioning and installing link2sd and pror to rooting so that is not the cause of the trouble. I suspect the problems may be related to the limited rom and ram being overloaded and system processes crashing until reboot. I HOPE it's not defective hardware although I guess I'm still withint the 30 day return period so hope to sort it out and keep it rather than turn it in.
i would try and odin to stock using krylon's post in the dev section. if you do that and you still have these errors... most likely hardware related and you need a new phone. i have zero issues with mine.
I got the same issue when I had my regular Vibrant using Bionix V with the Wifi toggle. Same thing with my Galaxy S 4G. Most of the time I can go into settings and toggle it from there and it will work. Sometimes not. I also use SuperPower App and it turns off the Wifi when the screen is off I think.
only issue I too am having is that my wifi does error out at times as well. It is quite annoying but aside from the rest of the features of the phone it's not a huge deal; especially given that the internet speed top notch and most any connecting to my home system is ran via wan not lan just for comparability reasons when i leave the house.
I've had all those issues.
I hate the lag.
I replaced the 16gig 2 class with my 8gig class 6.
Still lag, and just not very snappy.
This thing is going back this week.
I have all these problems too - both before I rooted and installed link2sd and after.
I really like this phone but am probably going to have to take it back because of these issues.
the original Vibrant had lag, as well. but over a few months... custom roms saved the day. i would stick it out cuz the hardware is pretty awesome. just my two cents.
The only problem I've Had is the WiFi (AP) Froze ON once, and the screen did not want to respond well. Reboot fixed it. That problem happened after uninstalling some apps. I haven't had any problems since. Phone works Good.
I've figured out a couple things. Basically all the problems on the phome seem to be thanks to bad software and bloatware.
1 the wifi refusing to turn on issue. This seems to be caused by the "drive smart (small)" app. Using Android Assistant killing that app allows wifi to turn back on immediately. The app does not always block wifi from starting, but when wifi is not starting, killing this app lets it start. At least on my phome.
2 no sound from navigation apps and other notification sounds not playing. When connecting to my ford sync, there are two bluetooth profiles used. One is the phone profile and one is bt audio. This is normal. Every phone i've had connects both. The problem is that this phone tries to send all audio to the car when it should only be sending phone call audio and media playback to the car. This is not how my old winphone devices behaved. I don't know if this is an android thing or just bad bluetooth software on the gs4g. Sometimes once the car is turned off, the phone still sends all the notification sounds to bluetooth. I know this because when there are no sounds toggling off bt will fix it. The answer was to simply uncheck the bt audio option on the phone for the ford sync connection.
I still have not figured out how to get the phone to stop randomly disconnecting frpm ford sync in the middle of calls or even having to be manually connected to bt devices in the first place. I thonl maube the bt stack in this rom is just really poorly written.

I have issues too with BT auto connecting with a Sony Headset. I would agree that the BT stack is f'ked on this ROM. I have CY6 on my G1 & it never ever had issues with my headset. I'd just turn my headset on, turn BT, wait for magic & play pandora.
I feel you on that one. we all just need to wait for some good roms to come, which is really soon. i have the app2sd app which helps but i do have lag (at times) but for me tegrak overclock, galaxy tuner, and sgs tools. all help a lot.
App2sd didn't help me much. Instead I partitioned the card and used link2sd.
That worked for a while but then i started getting storage full notices again.
So today I also used the fota fix which clears up 250mb all by itself. And I also ised titanium to freeze some system bloatware apps so they won't run in the background.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I have had NONE of the issues everyone is talking about.. additionally i've removed all of the bloatware, original ROM and SD card on phone, and it's snappy as heck.
I have not had any random bt disconnects since freezing some sytem apps and doing the fota fix. Only been a day but the phone is running like a dream w/those fixes so far.

you're using all those with your sgs 4g? I've heard of sgs tools creating issues (namely, camera) with the 4g.
Oh and +1 for the wifi issue, although it's only happened to me once I think. Then again, I don't use wifi very often.
I'm not sure if it was sgs tool's fault but ever since i used it my phone has been acting up so i might have to flash krylons stock rom. Now i have like no available ram memory, recording fails constantly, video that actually does record make the video player crash a lot, touch wiz no longer works, wifi always has an error, and i can't set ringtones anymore. Ill ive done on this phone is change the gallery, camera, and touch wiz through sgs tools and now its acting up a lot. I wish i can flash the rom now but my stupid computer says download error once i get to around 50%. I seriously learned my lesson, I'm not gonna mess with things that i don't really understand.

Can you please provide a list of what you actually removed? I'm familiar with what's bloat on the evo, but not on this device.
In a few days i'll be helping someone root their device along with installing a bunch of actually useful programs. This person is not interested in a custom rom/kernel, but getting rid of some of the stock bloat would be great.
Thanks!
Theres another weird thing I noticed about sgs4g, when you turned data off signal doesnt come on or takes a long time... Anybody else getting that and mine is stock no root nothing
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Since we're talking signal in here...sitting at work, my G1 got great signal, now with my SG4G I bounce between 1 and two bars...
Do the SG4Gs only use 4G or Edge?

Lenovo A536 handset problem

Hi ,I am experiencing a horrible problem with my Lenovo a536...
When I connect handset to my phone it keeps playing well...but once I start using the phone to do stuff like playing and checking Facebook the handset automatically disconnect then connect...it really bothers me how I have to push play button every 3 minutes
I am just asking is this software related problem or hardware related one ?!
I just bought the phone a week ago and I am ready to flash a custom ROM if that is the problem..but if it's a hardware one then tell me so I don't have to go through flashing the ROM for nothing...
Here is more info to help you diagnose the problem :
-when no music is playing ,the left earbud make static-like sound and it gets louder and stronger when I do a heavy activity like loading an app
-Bluetooth handsets works perfectly fine
-i tried different handsets ,some of them lower the amount of disconnects but it still disconnect...
-it never disconnect when my screen is turned off and I am playing music ,but it disconnect a lot while watching a YouTube video or while playing music and using the phone
Please don'tnt suggest me to go to service provider cuz in Egypt service provider never help
I know about VLC player but I want something more effective
Thanks so much for help

Notification problems anyone ?

I must say i love the phone as in battery life and the camera also gives some nice pictures.
But what started it to not love the phone anymore is the notification problem.
I installed Whatsapp and as soon as the lockscreen was active or a few minutes later it stopped to receive notifications.
This also was for Telegram and my home automation app.
I have searched for topics and found quite allot of these similar notification problems with tips.
What i have done is set by every application that needed to be running in the background :
Enable autostart
Turn of battery saving mode - no limitation
Lock the app in the screen where you can empty / close the running apps.
Also found a topic and application that should "fix" some notification problems for MIUI.
https://github.com/FabioCZ
Not sure if this completly works but i am starting to get most notifications on whatsapp/telegram etc.
What does not work at all is my video doorbell,
the application is Hik-Connect.
Got my older samsung phone laying next to the note 10 and press the ring button.
Only samsung rings, the note 10 doesn't work at all.
ofcourse i have installed them both from the playstore, used the same settings on the xiaomi to keep it running.
Nothing
Is there anyone that has an idea, because the whole handy thingy is gone now.
maybe a custrom rom will solve it,but since i have no idea how to make it thats a no go
I did unlocked the phone , installed orange fox and magisk to use titanium backup.
Can say that this didn't work flawless also, getting magisk giving the toast message to give certain apps root acces etc etc.
whats even worse, can't return the phones ( got 2, 1 for me and for m girlfriend)
Well hope someone has an idea.
Thanks
edit: i am using nightskeeper to automatically turn of the sound at a certain time and turn it on.
Give some contacts rights to still call trough the audio block.
But also this application does not work anymore, i get this notice every time but its already active.
When i enter ok, and turn the permissions on it works again for a few hours or so and then its gone.
its getting a bit frustrating , hopefully my alarm clock will still stay working
try this setting

try to put a system sound, the same thing happens when I put an mp3 or music sound
thanks guys,
the sound trick was indeed a good one because it could not find the audio file that was set from my samsung phone ( used titanium backup to install WA again)
It does seem that 9 of 10 times i do get the notices.
Also got my Hik-Connect app finally running and ringing when i press the doorbell.
Now comes the strangest part, the settings that i have put in my phone are identical to the phone of my girlfriend.
And my phone works with most of the services that i want but the phone from my girl doesn't.
Also bumped into another thing, wifi tethering .
I have a android radio in my car, what i got set with Tasker for years is :
1 - jump in the car
2- bluetooth makes a connection to the radio/phone .
3- tasker notices this, starts wifi tethering / hotspot
4- radio will connect on the hotspot of the phone and live traffic naviation / streaming radio works.
That was how it was supposed to work, now i get a notice from tasker that its not working, need a extra application and root.
I have root / installed the wifi tasker tether application. Also found the module that should do the same and installed this in magisk.
But still a no go
i do like fiddeling around with my phones, but it has to work eventually haha.
Would come in handy if i know how to write code and make my own fix for this.
Ah well anyway, im going to make a full backup from my phone and try to set this 1:1 on my girls phone.
Hopefully the notifications and the doorbell will work then.
Thanks guys
Im using notifybuddy for notifications and it's a life changer.
Hello Vincenttot, I have bought a PocoX3 PRO mobile and the same thing happens to you.
What does not work at all is my video doorbell, the application is Hik-Connect. But on other phones it works fine.
Have you found any solution?
Thanks guys
