There is a thread in the regular M8 forum, but I figured I would give a heads up to everyone here as well. My wife and I went for a bicycle ride on Saturday. I mounted my phone to my stem, as I had always done previously with my S4. About 6 miles into the ride, we came across a pretty brook, so I decided to take a picture. My camera was all out of focus, and emitting a buzzing sound. Once we got home I researched it some more, and found other people were getting the same problem, under similar circumstances, ie mounting the phone to their motorcycle, or jogging with the phone in an armband. I brought my phone into Verizon, today, and they are sending me a new one. I will be taking a bike ride, as soon as it arrives, and hope that it has happened to just a few of us, and that the internals of this phone are not made so fragile.

I have taken mine on runs, hikes and bike rides as well and have not had this issue. I also hope there is only a small sample of this device having this issue best of luck with the replacement.
The new phone is here. I've got it unlocked, and rooted, and will restore one of my backups, when I get home. I will report back, on the camera, after a few bicycle rides. :fingers-crossed:

People have been having trouble with s-off through firewater lately and having to use the sunshine method. We're you able to use firewater with this new phone?

I have grown quite fond of it, actually. Having owned the original S (Fascinate), S3, and S4, I was all set to go with the S5. Especially with the rumors of better build materials. When that didn't come to fruition, and the lengthy time it took to get root, I decided to give the M8 a try. As I have previously stated, I'm not thrilled with the picture quality, but overall it's not that bad. M8 performance is stellar, and aesthetically, imo, it's the nicest phone available, bar none. Will I go to the S5, now that it's rooted? Probably not. Safestrap just doesn't do it for me. With the M8, I have a beautiful performer, that I can do just about anything to.
Hi, So I received my Sprint GS6 Edge 64gb on 4/8/15 and immediately I noticed all other hairline scratches some one have been getting. Does anyone know how long it would take to replace the phone or even if its worth replacing considering all the backorder and that people haven't even gotten the phone yet? Also, ever since I setup the device, I have lag here and there. The phone is ultra fast but still stutters MORE than my Nexus 5... I can get tasks done faster on my Nexus just because it doesn't have all these hickups here and there. Anyone notice this or experiencing this? Does anyone know the solution? I already got a Sprint OTA of 100 and something MBs, that didn't do anything.
I guess I was one of the lucky ones. I didn't have any scratches on my 64gb edge. Hopefully they won't make you go through a long process to get a replacement.
I haven't noticed any lag on mine yet. Everything seems to flow do smoothly. I took the same update as well and haven't noticed any lag before or after. I should also mention that I'm not a huge TW Launcher fan either, so I have been using Apex Launcher instead, just my Launcher of choice, everyone has their favorites.
I wish Sammy would've went with a little bigger battery. I can get a full day with light usage, but heavy use seems to drag it down pretty fast. Front facing speakers like I have on my m8 would've been a nice touch as well, but we can't have everything.
Still overall, I am in love with the device. The phone is just stunning to look at. Best of luck to you on getting your replacement promptly.

My front screen was fine but I had scratches all over the back so I did a sprint chat on the exchange/return page and they shipped it the same day so it's worth a shot. You could try in store but I didn't want to be one of those customers to complain as the scratches are extremely hard to see on the back unless it's under sunlight and I don't know how they handle in store policy exchange/defects but it's worth a shot both ways.
As far as lag, it was extremely lag/hot the first few minutes installing and getting it setup but so far it's pretty fast to me. Maybe depends on your apps but I believe there is another OTA coming out and obviously this isn't 5.1 so I wouldn't judge too early as the phone needs to work the kinks out.

I agree with the battery, I believe it's very efficient as far as idle goes but using my phone all day long it will drain away. The speakers are a con as the bottom just seems to not be very direct compared to say rear speakers as it can at least blast back from your hand but holding the phone sideways your hand tends to block the sound. But overall I still love the phone and just the looks, glass and premium feel I wouldn't go back to my photon Q lol Now if they made a Epic V2 I'd be all over that phone as i just can't find a proper way to hold the phone so a keyboard would have been a perfect.
I picked up my edge from bestbuy yesterday. The first one had spiderweb scratches all over it so they have me another one. The second one was pristine. As far as lag goes I haven't really experienced any. It's to soon for me to comment on battery life, once I have a couple charge cycles I will report back. Very happy with my purchase.
Loving the phone so far. The only lag i experience is scrolling through widgets on the homescreen like the fenix twitter widget. I think its a touchwiz thing because i installed google now launcher and the widget scrolls smooth.
Very little light bleed on the bottom right corner with brightness at 100%. none on second screen. Phone feels great and comparable to the note 7 . curved metal edges feel good in the hand.
UPS just picked up my shipment and it will be here on the 20th. Great to hear, have been on a G5 since I turned in our Note 7's v2. The more good things I hear the more excited I get about the phones getting here.
You might want to change your title since your phone hasn't really arrived.
Just got mine. I have just the slightest bit of light bleed around where the front camera is and across the left part of the second screen. you can only really see it on white backgrounds and the top just looks slightly brighter than below. It's nothing like the v10 where it was like someone was just shining a tiny flashlight from the top left corner of the second screen. Overall, I'm pleased so far.
Thank god for the option to change DPI being built into android now. I couldn't stand the huge DPI on past LG phones.
mine was delivered about an hour ago
Cool, let us know hows the battery!

Yeah, no where near as bad as the V10 was with the second screen. I have the blue light filter set to low all the time since it warms up the screen just slightly. This thing has a great screen considering it's LCD. I am finding this a perfect replacement for the Note 7. Also nice to be holding a phone that I don't feel like i'm going to break just by looking at it. The Note 7 just felt like it was solid, but delicate. This thing just feels solid. I'll still put a minimal case on it just for scratch protection, but otherwise i think this thing could handle a few drops.

I also set the blue light filter to low. The screen was just too cold and harsh without it. I find the body of the phone kinda slick, but a thin case will take care of that and help keep it from getting scuffed when I drop it.
How do you guys like the included pre-installed screen protector?

You folks from T-mobile with a v20 in hand right now suck big time jking. I ordered a week ago via Att and still have over a week to wait. I am very jealous, especially since I am using an LG phoenix 2 as temp and hate it to death. Anyways, enjoy the V20.

Anyone?!? Please answer
Amazon recently added a Halo Gray variant to their listings and I know it comes with Alexa that can be removed but would there be any reason NOT to get this color? I wonder if it would be BETTER to get since it's probably a new hardware revision? I know it has the same internal specs as the others but I've heard some horror stories about the initial batch of the black ones and am wondering if that's still a concern.
I'm curious to know your thoughts!

I purchased a black one from bestbuy earlier in the week hoping it was part of the new batch. It was apparently as the speaker grill was metal. But the light bleed was very present on both sides so i returned it. Started reading about the newer batch of phones that fixed the speaker grill are having light bleed issues. So with that said i’m hesitant to buy another. But this Halo grey color peaks my interest and amazons return policy is pretty great. So i’m going to bite the bullet and try the Halo grey.

Good to hear! I have the Black and while beautiful it is a mother to keep clean when not in a case. I'm running Orea B8.1 and hoping the non beta will be out soon and if it is nice and smooth with no hiccups I may get the Halo Gray as well.

I picked up the Halo Grey when it was on sale for $450 and am mostly enjoying it right now. I have never seen any other PH-1 and could not imagine how much of a smudge magnet they must be. Plus the matte has just enough grip to it to keep it from being a wet bar of soap. I upgraded it to Oreo 8.1 within 10 minutes of taking it out of the box and am trying to figure out what the battery life is going to be like.
So yes...go halo!

So 2 weeks later now, How has the battery life been on oreo 8.1 ? getting my essential phone soon. So eager to know whether i should upgrade to oreo or not.
So I am going to call the battery life "acceptable", but not spectacular. I tried out a OnePlus 5T before the PH-1 but could not get VoLTE working on AT&T. That thing seemed to have stellar battery life. The Essential is going into Deep Sleep about 75% of the time according to CPU Spy. All I do is calls/texts and surf the web on mine and I seem to go 2 days before recharging again. The fast charge is damn fast...but I do find myself missing the headphone jack. I needed to plug it in the other day while I was on a call. And keeping up with the stupid dongle is annoying. I did try a cheap used 360 camera and what a total **** show. That thing ate power at a stupid rate, the video/pictures were like meh, and it actually has a tiny fan buzzing away in it....and it still heats up. Overall the phone is solid and built BEAUTIFULLY.
Mine has been great. I love the matte back and its much closer to black than grey. I also wasn't sure about the color of the metal frame from pictures either coming from a black moon I had previously but I really like it in person. Haven't had any quality issues with it.
I will say battery on 8.1 is decent... its nothing spectacular but its more than adequate. Then again I'm coming from a v30 which has possibly the best battery life I've ever had on an android phone.. just a slight step below the mate 8 and mi mix 1.
---------- Post added at 05:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:23 AM ----------
I am just a little bummed that I bought it at $499 and now its $450 with the essential earbuds and amazon refuses to refund me the difference or price match... and I really don't wanna have to go through the whole return and repurchase process just to get that difference back.
So far my battery on the matte gray was stellar. I spent the weekend at my girlfriends house and didnt have to charge it at all. So far so good.

Hey guys. Have currently ordered my new 12 gb one plus 7 pro nebula blue and I can't wait till it arrives but had a quick question for everyone......
Has anyone noticed any major or minor bugs or glitches on the phone?
I'm coming from a huawei p20 pro and I know the os and everything is going to feel fluid and google like but it's a major step for one plus to go to a curved display and 2k display and 90 hertz display so it could be little experimental but I was just wondering if anyone was having any issues with the phone if they don't mind sharing. I would love to know.
I'm sorry if I put a duplicate thread but didn't notice a thread with bugs and issues.
And I did see online that people were experiencing "phantom" touches issues and was wondering if anyone else was having that issue and what I need to do to avoid it from happening to my phone.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I actually have ghost touch issues, and it seems a lot of people also got it, if not everyone. But due to the fact it happens under some condition, not everybody seems to be aware of it. You have to run your screen at 90Hz, with NFC enable, and launch some specific apps like CPU-Z or reddit for it to happens, because it seems the issue come from the NFC. I heard it was a software issue and Oneplus is working on it, and I hope it is, because if it's an hardware issue, I will sell my phone.
Well, if you can deal with this ATM, this is a very nice phone, I sold my S10 to get this one and I'm absolutely not disappointed!

So if I understood correctly. You're saying it is possible because of nfc connection being on?
It disappears if nfc is off? I barely use nfc anyways so hopefully my phone will be fine.
And hopefully it is software and not hardware issue. That would suck as I can't return it where I am atm and will have to wait a month or so before I can if it's hardware issue.
And to my understanding.... Oneplus had a software update that improved camera and performance etc... Did you install it and have you noticed the ghost issue gone or still present in the new update?
Thanks for the update

From my understanding the phantom touches issue is very rare. I havent havent had the issue. The only bug I have noticed is when a phone call ends, youre always taken back to the homescreen. So if youre on twitter or playing a game, once the call ends any app will auto close. Its annoying but nothing crazy and will most likely be fixed soon.

Not a deal breaker for me but I can see how that can get annoying.
Have you or anyone noticed the earpiece random noises when on the call like other people have?
Or it's just device specific?
I bought the phone Friday when it came out. So I'm scared I bought the phone too soon and I might get more bugs on my phone that anyone else's but only time will tell when I get the device in hand.
(I ordered it early but since I'm in Africa right now, I had to ship it to USA international then ship from there to me using a third party delivery shipping service. That's why I haven't received the phone yet and have been waiting for a while)

I've always wanted oneplus for their speed and oxygen os.
And the 7 pro really sold me with the 90hertz and that amazing speed and display.

When did you buy and get the device? Ddi you guys order on Friday when it got out on the store like me or were you guys at the pop up event in New York or other places?

Yeah this is my first OnePlus device as well. I just switched from a Note 8 so I was already used to the edge display and I can say the edge display on this device is much better. The speed with 90hertz is also amazing and you can really tell the difference from 60hertz. The display is also great. With the front camera hidden inside the phone, the phone really feels like it is all display. Also the phone gets really bright making it easier to see in direct light and the night mode to tone down the blue light.... The greatest. I have sensitive eyes so looking at bright things at light was a rarity for me but this device can get really dark compared to phones Ive used in the past.
Anyways, I bought the phone the Friday when it went on sale. I had a lot of faith in OnePlus after hearing it do so well the past few years so I took the chance and got it.

Yeah this is my first OnePlus device as well. I just switched from a Note 8 so I was already used to the edge display and I can say the edge display on this device is much better.

Yea those are some of the reasons I got the phone as well. I'm coming from a used huawei p20 pro, a phone my brother passed on to me when he got the new mate 20 pro.
I've never bought a new phone. My first phone I ever bought was on contract which was the LG g4. Loved the curved back but screen didn't last for me (only one year in a 3 year contract at the time) then was using my back up phones until my brother gave me his p20 pro.
I've always wanted to try a curved screen display rather than curved back.
And I've been following one plus for a while, (I even got a referral for the oneplus one when they had a refferal service) but ended up selling it to someone else because I didn't trust oneplus back then but then after the other devices from one plus came out then I slowly gained interest.
And this oneplus 7 pro really caught my attention but these issues and bugs everyone is experiencing is really scaring me. If it's a hardware issue then I would have to take a long process to return the phone and I really don't want to do that.
Really hope it's a software issue and can get fixed in a future software update.
Or if I don't get the issues at all then that would be even better. Fingers crossed and will update the forum when my phone comes in.
I don't use the cpu app nor do I use nfc. So hopefully I don't encounter the issues but let's see. You never know
And how is the new update? Worth updating or made it worse?
Usually it's better but some people have been experiencing issues idk
Would love your input whether to skip that update when my phone comes or to download it right away
