On the 6.0 update?
For me...
1. Faster fingerprint reader/unlock animation
2. New keyboard layout
3. Finally having an option to switch to pin code for alternative option if fingerprint isnt working
4. Adjustments on touchwiz
5. Google now on tap
6. New emojis
7.Faster phone ?? (hopefully)
Is speed an issue? My Note5 is smooth and quick. *shrug* Now on Tap is actually pretty cool. I don't use a protective lock screen so I don't know about that. I'd like to be able to activate Samsung Pay with a swipe up from the S-View window, but that won't happen.

Speed is definitely not an issue lol, but there are somethings that need a speed improvement.. such as the fingerprint reader. I just hope i dont see any lag. Im assuming you use Find my mobile? if you dont use a protective lock screen. And i dont use samsung pay or NFC payment for that matter, but i understand your struggle haha.
I could root my device, but i choose not to. Reason being is it will possibly lose value once Knox has been tripped.

I do use Find my Mobile but I also use this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rickclephas.fingersecurity to lock certain apps. It only locks those apps when I am not connected to my WiFi or my cars Bluetooth. Maybe with the new fingerprint API I'll lock the whole phone up.
I also noticed when watching marshmallow beta for s6/s6 edge is that the capacitive buttons dont light up when touching the screen... which is a smart move from samsung. It saves battery and it makes sense. It only lights up when pressing them or when pressing the home button.

Thats looks like a really useful app! And yes, really looking forward to the new fingerprint API. We can finally make purchases with just our fingerprint reader on play store, amazon, ebay, etc... hopefully.
I hope they fix the keyboard lag I have with every keyboard.
New emojis?! What are the supposed to look like in 6.0? Also what is Google on tap?

Actually it makes no sense, whatsoever. The entire point of the capacitive buttons lighting up when you touch the screen is so you can see them in the dark in order to press them.. lighting up when you touch them makes zero sense, why would I need them to do THAT?

It only takes about an hour to learn which is which... Its unecessary for the lights to turn on everytime you touch the screen, its just pointless.

They didn't light up because it was a Beta and the rooted kernel broke it even more on some devices, but made them work better on other devices. There's also mods you can use to just turn them off if you don't like them. Xposed. Or just go into the settings!!!
Also, just because you don't like them being on, doesn't mean that they are pointless. Tests have also been done to see just how much battery life is affected by Capacitive buttons and you can't even tell how much they use.
By the way, a lot of people like myself, work in dark places and have to use our phones. Think about that for a minute.:good:
The only thing I'm looking forward to is a phone that doesn't get an update and have it cause the phone to be worse than before. Right now my stock Note 5 works just fine.

Well judging by the videos people post about MM update or s7 edge with MM, it doesn't light up when touching the screen. Lol.

If you don't like my hobby, well, I can't help you there. Mate.
Where I CAN help you is with your real problem. See, I also got an used Pixel with rattling vibration. So just go thru all the settings on the phone and anywhere you see it - disable it or turn it off. This means haptic feedback, keyboard settings, ringtone settings etc. You can't disable it all at once, you just gotta go one by one. It's a 3 minute walk, you can do it.

Oneplus 6 got rid of the swipe down for notifications gesture. Is there any way we can get it back? Maybe like the flashable zip the 5t had in omnirom? This may seem like such a small thing but it's huge for me. With this gesture I dont have to reach up to get my notifications down and thats a lot less of a chance for having the phone drop and break on me. Especially because it's all glass now.

Well, the phone hasn't practically even released at this time, so it will take a bit of time to know.
I think the reason why there are no fingerprint gestures is because of the reduction in the size of the fingerprint sensor.

Quite upset about the removal of this feature as well. It was really useful. I'll be looking out for it / monitoring this thread to see if anyone has a solution. Wish OnePlus would simply add it back.
Workaroud
I followed this guide and it seems to be the only app that works with my OP6
android.gadgethacks.com/how...e-notification-gesture-other-devices-0174514/
just add https before it as i can't post links yet
would be amazing to get swipe gestures, especially while reading ebooks or articles, its so convenient scrolling and reading with one hand and a coffee in the other

It does work if you download the app from the guide and enable foreground activity.
I've been using it for the past 24 hours with no issues (just the annoying android notification that there is an app running in the background which I hid so now all good)

Like the title says, ask me whatever you want about the 1+6. This could be useful if you are considering to buy this amazing phone!
Debating between this phone and the mi mix 2s. By all counts the OP will have better development, and the headphone jack is a plus. The mix really has style and wireless charging. But unconfirmed reports that Android pay didn't work. Does Android pay work on a stock OP? Is it seen as certified on the Google store (can I play Netflix?). I don't plan on rooting or installing an after market ROM until later in life (if OP stops supporting it). Also how does OP handle the warranty in the US? Basically there isn't one on the mi mix 2s which is a big minus.
I'm coming from a LG V20 so I debate whether or not to upgrade at all considering it has almost everything lol

Q: Does Android pay work on a stock OP?
A: Yes! Google pay works with the Oneplus 6
Q: Is it seen as certified on the Google store?
A: Sort answer, yes. I didn't have any problems with the Google play store on my device.
Q: Can I play Netflix?
A: yes, Netflix works fine on my device.
Q: How does OP handle the warranty in the US?
A: I'm not sure, I haven't looked into this yet. I'll keep you up to date if I know more information about your question. But I'm pretty sure the warranty is alright.
Some extra information:
- Don't let the 1080p screen hold you back. The screen is gorgeous and you won't see the pixels.
- Screen on time is about 4 and a half hours with average usage.
- Dash charge does what it's promised to do.
- The Oneplus 6 is for my small hands a two handed phone.
I hope I answered all your questions well!
Best regards,

I think your phone will lock a few minutes later when you turn the screen off. (Lock delay) You can turn this off in the settings to "Lock device when screen is off"

Hi! I'm planning on making the OP6 my first OnePlus Device.
I also plan on getting the 6T later as well. I know that seems pointless. But I like have 2 major devices from a company for a years run..
Anyway, I know the phone is brand new and we have to see how things go, but, do you think there will be ROM support for this device? Given that it had the dual partition system (A&B style) would it be worthwhile to get the OP6 for ROMs right now?
My only want is to Root & ROM the phone. I have a LG G6 & V30, both from T-Mobile and have no dev supoort or ROMs. I like them both but I miss LineageOS and that's actually why I'm buying the OP6.
In your opinion, should I expect to see ROMs like LineageOS for OP6 or should I just wait and get the 6t.
I'm just trying to justify it to myself, especially now that the Nylon bumper case is sold out and that's the one I wanted. Ha, minor detail holding me back. Obviously I'll snag a Karbon Bumper hopefully..

Wow is that the reason they say they removed fp gestures? This didn't make sense because it's the same size as the fp sensor on the s8 and so she fp features work on those devices. So I wonder if this new sensor just doesn't support gestures or if it can be added back in from a custom rom?

First of all I must excuse me. Because I live in the Netherlands, my phone's language is set to Dutch.
First go to you security settings, then press the little settings circle. Now you should see some sort of a timer. Change this timer value to something more then 0 sec (instant lock). Ow and toggle the instant lock slider for when you press the power button
I came from one plus 6T and I think that best way to deal with no LED notifications was app called Plus Beat. It activate stock ambient display according to predefined time interval. Sadly it's no working on 7 Pro anymore. Anyone is aware of good alternative for that kind of app?
Hello
I also come from the 6T and I have installed it in my 7 Pro.
I think it worked better in the 6T, but I do not notice that goes wrong in the 7 Pro.
The only thing that ever worked for me is the option of DND profiles. When I set it up and activate it, I get into the app and the Option Enable Plus Beat It's off.
Anyone know how to fix it?
There's another app. It's called "Always on Edge". Works fine for me.

This may be a very dumb question but is there a way to dismiss notifications from the actual notification screen (I believe this is the ambient screen)?
The only way I've been able to dismiss notifications is to go into the lock screen and swipe away the notification.
