[Discussion Thread ] Oneplus V - OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello everyone, so the Oneplus 5 is coming later this month and while we are all excited leaks are out day after day so what are your thought about this device ?
I saw a post this morning saying that it will start in India with a price of 500$ and the 8GB of RAM variant will cost almost 600$ which is a but high considering Oneplus make "Flagships Killers"...what do you think ?

I've already started a similar thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/buying-t3617327

I saw the title my friend it was asking people who's gonna buy one, this thread is a general discussion i mean even after buying the device people can discuss about the phone, their experience with it,the battery life, problems, compare it to previous devices...etc, while your thread wont be as active as before when more people will buy the OP5.
I hope you understood my point of view mate

Ahhh okay, that's fine. Sorry

If the design is confirmed (most probably) in the presentation to be like the Iphone and OPPO ones, i will probably start calling it iPlus 5/iP5 for ever.

It's an unofficial render, so it will be different from the real phone.

I saw a post showing the OP5 on Oneplus Facebook page it looks really beautiful and very similar to the Iphone 7...I can even say that the back is a copycat

Guys, this is 2017, All the flagship that has come so far are IPxx rated. oneplus till now has given this feature a miss in the flagship killers. Do you think OP5 will be waterproof ?
P.s. My purchase will surely depend on this ..

I really don't mind the design, and I even made a video explaining some of the design aspects, and why I think it looks so much like the iPhone 7 Plus. Feel free to disagree, this is a discussion guys

OnePlus is just playing pre-launch games with us. They like watching literally the entire market base squirm for the weeks leading up to the launch

General S5 Review

Hello,
I currently have an AT&T Galaxy S4, I really like this phone. However I'm looking forward to buy Galaxy S5. I have asked a few of my friends to share their experience about S5 and their review was not quite good. I want to know is there any major with S5 or not.
Also mention minor S5 problems. Thanks.

I also had a pro 5 some years ago, great device with a bad flyme and updates
Maybe i will try pro 6 plus for the price, nice screen, good battery and performance and audio dac, but yeah, meizu ruins all with bad flyme and updates
i don´t understand how meizu can ruin everything with this bad ui
So this phone is at banggood at 170/200 euros, it´s a nice price for this
There are a lot of people that are buying this right now, no one can make custom rom like faust did with pro 5?
Some money can be raised
Yeah i am planning to buy this phone on banggood. Anybody shipped it to india?I liked to know what amount of custom duty i have to pay?

Full Screen Contact/Caller ID Pic In-Call

Finally got back on Samsung after a break from my Note 3, with a Note 8, carrier unlocked U.S.. One thing I miss is having full screen call/contact pics. For the life of me I cant figure out why they would make the contact pic so small when making, receiving or in progress of a call. Its pretty close to the size of the send/end call button. I guess maybe its a Nougat thing, because my V20 was the same way. Question is, does anyone have any insight into a remedy for this. Non-Root remedy perhaps.. Any themes or anything of that nature that may exist with full screen caller ID/Contact pic. Thanks in advance
You could try this. Although not full screen, but a little bit better..

Same here...Waiting since s8 got oreo beta...
@RequeLine any hopes..
It was best during Note 2, 3, 4 days where really we used to have caller image as that of size of screen size. Developer like Poppuri had best of it. Now a days all half screen image are seen in Oreo custom roms except some apps in play store.
Figured I would drop back in on the off chance that someone has come up with a fix. The link in this thread worked fine until Oreo came around. And as of now, only the European version has the capability of larger contact/in call pics. Anyone have any luck with US unlocked version?

EMUI 9 Beta opened

Hello, did somebody got the beta in the beta app ? Because I have a P20 Pro and nothing appears in available projects in the beta app :/
P20 Pro CLT-L29C432B152
It's full I believe

It couldn't be possible because since IFA I checked every 5 minutes and still nothing :/
EDIT : Same on my GF's Honor 10 C432
Not sure what to tell you. It's the same for me in the UK. It shows nothing is available. I'm sure there was only 100 slots. I could be wrong.

Yeah, I saw a lot of websites that said it will take a moment for the project to appear in the app so.... We should wait maybe :/
I also remember last year with my P10 Plus I wanted to go to the EMUI 8 project but it said it was full, so full or not it is supposed to appear
Beta can be installed using FunkyHuawei now https://funkyhuawei.club/flash/CLT-L29C432
I am signed in on my phone using Huawei's account, but every time I try to sign in after agreeing to the terms on the Beta app, I get the message "login failed", could anyone help me please?

Where do you see that they made it public?
I anyhow only see CLT-L29 8.1.0. FWs and not 9.
Nevermind.. Found. Pretty expensive to get a copy of FW that they do not own.
OMG I actually remember I have 1 credit since I rebranded my P20 Pro from C33 to C432 so I can install it soooo lucky ?
BTW if I get stuck or anything like that... How can I rollback to EMUI 8 ? Pretty scared now :/ If someone could try to see if it's safe it would be cool ?

I think I misread it. It says he made it public. Not sure if that actually means just it's been released from him or he's released it to the public haha
I can't accept the license when I start the beta app.... Connection refused error

So I charged my P20 Pro to 100% and now it's discharging so i'l tell you when it's gonna be fully discharged BTW the battery is not displayed in days but in hours now ( like 36 hours remaining). So there is many bugs, like some animation lags but it's not important at all, also some lags with the blur in the multitasking, but it's not important. EMUI 9 is really smooth, and I ran an Antutu benchmark, and it scored 125K, 15k more than EMUI 8 wich was at 110k. So yeah, really smooth.

In display fingerprint scanner 6T vs Mate 20 Pro

I made this video
I prefer the mate 20 pro implementation.
What do you guys think?
I have listed few genuine concerns.

I am not saying its bad but a reliable face unlock would have been better with this 1st gen tech.
basically i like both but on comparison i like mate 20 Pro slightly better

Bias aside, the Mate 20 Pro's implementation is much better. Also seems and looks faster tbh

I agree as far as implementation may be better . but 6T was the first to have it! keeping that in mind as far as the speed that you mentioned it's the way he recorded the video if you watched it

Actually Hauwei had it first. Unless you are talking about oppo.
huawei mate rs porsche and vivo nex were first to use the in display scanner.
speed feels faster in 6t because no pressure is needed but mate 20 needs pressure to be applied

6T was the first to have it in the US only. Definitely not the first when you consider intl. market
when i isaid first in video i didnt mean literally the first to use.
I wanted to mean first gen tech.
Why be the frontrunners in implementing a first gen tech in a low cost VFM device and sacrificing useful functionality

you mean the FP scanner on 6T?
Even i didnt like the implementation either.
OnePlus has become greedy.
For US markets thats fine since 500$ smartphone is rare may be.
But with asian context the company is bringing nothing new.
Slow death for sure.
I was a fanboy and now ......

I checked further and both fingerprint and face unlock work simultaneously even when screen is off. once u start pressing on scanner!!
But atleast huawei doesn't cheat in that respect and informs on lockscreen that it was unlocked by face unlock!!
