[Q] Sandstone Black Back

Does anyone know where I can find a sandstone black back? I have the silk white and I want to switch to the sandstone. Any help would be nice.

If you add multi-touch select and custom color per-account to the stock OPO CM (AOSP) eMail client I'll give you the one off of mine. (never used it without a case and it's less than a week old currently).
The other thing I would like to see added is the option to block "Access Device ID" in the privacy settings. I see that the stock email client needs permission to access my device's ID and I neither understand why it would need that, nor want it to have permission to access it.
I only responded with those requests because I see you say you are learning coding. However, I have to assume it won't be too long until someone who's purchased a bamboo cover for their sandstone black model will offer to either give you theirs or sell it to you at a reasonable price.
Good luck and regards,
Christopher

eBay or aliexpress. eBay will probably be quicker if you order from within your own country, but aliexpress will probably be cheaper (but from China). Keep in mind that you can order simply the back, or you can order it with the NFC antenna. Without the NFC it'll probably be under $10USD, but more like $30 for the one with NFC installed.

When I say code I mean like C# and Web Development, I've not done too much with android outside of compiling from source using git. The device id part I don't understand that either, I mean it's AOSP and unless it's sending out user data then it shouldn't be a privacy issue.

Heh, well with a name like "TheROMguy", one might think you do Android coding...
Yeah, I don't think it's really a privacy issue, it just irritates me that I can't control it.
This looks like it might be a better deal than the first link I posted: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Origina...ent-For-Oneplus-One-1-A0001-Tool/201216507186

Check Expansys USA -- they have the 'Lava Grey' (i.e.: black) version for $210, with free basic shipping. 'Natural aluminum' (i.e.: silver) version is s'thing like $30 more. I'm posting this reply in a hurry, so no links -- sorry.
n.b.: Expansys does not specify China (PRC) or Taiwan model, but it's easy to conflate the two countries as 'China'. I asked Expansys to check stock; they sent a fresh device photo, showing /all/ Google services installed.

Expansys staff person posted a comment that it is "from China and does have Google Play."
I'm not sure what that means but I've ordered one and will find out.

I just received my n1 from Expansys.
I confirm that it does have the Google play store.
It came in Chinese but I changed the language.
The android version is 5.0.1 but it asked me to update the software as soon as I turned it on.. Downloading now.. Hopefully it's 5.1...

NOkia N1 taiwanese version only 257USD !
my friend helped me buy a nokia n1 in taiwan and its cost only 257 USD . is it cheapest ?
haha

My N1 from Expansys has Build number A5FM401. Neither the tablet nor the retail box nor the packaging was shrink wrapped. Is there a reliable way to determine whether it had the TW version with Google Play straight from the factory or whether the software was altered after it left the factory?

Well, I can say that I'm quite happy with the Taiwanese N1 I bought from Expansys USA. It arrived brand-new in factory packaging and after the usual set up (plus some extra time required to get around the initial language barrier) works great...best $210 I've ever spent on an Android device.

Here's what I can tell you, from personal experience.:
• A5FM401 is the factory-installed build for Nokia's Taiwan release of the N1. Shortly after first login, the device will download several OTAs, culminating in Android 5.0.2 (A5FM51C).
• With my N1, the shrinkwrap had been carefully cut likely to open the box for inspection as noted in Expansys' catalog (e.g.: to check for damage and/or a US-type power plug).
• The tablet itself still wore the factory's wrapping. I carefully examined the polythene under bright lights (think C.S.I.: Android !), but saw absolutely no signs of tampering.
• From talking to several people who own the Chinese (PRC) model, nobody in their right mind would go to the trouble of re-flashing one to make it look like the Taiwanese part.
BTW: when I asked Expansys to verify Google's apps, s'body in the warehouse kindly sent a pic of a freshly unboxed/booted Nokia N1. Maybe that's the one you got?
Hope this helps a bit.

I'd like to hear your results, for sake of curiosity. Meanwhile, mine stopped at Android v5.0.2 -- I'm told this is the current final release for Nokia's Taiwanese N1.
To date, only their Chinese (PRC) part has been upgraded to 5.1.1, but since that OTA rolled out just a few weeks ago, I guess there's still hope for the rest of us.

Good reviews, so far, plus I figure you can't go far wrong for $10.

I am happy with the Expansys unit as well, I was debating between the N1 and the new Asus zenpad 8.0 s which has the same processor and slightly better specs but costs more.. The N1 is much better looking and has stock Android which is a big plus.
I hope they will keep on updating it, eventually to Marshmallow, since after all it's stock Android...
Great tablet, I just wish I could find the official cover that doesn't seem to be available anywhere...

It's very helpful - thank you. The info about the build number suggests that the software is original. Someone here said their tablet was rooted, but I suspect they were mistaken. I missed the part in Expansys' catalog stating that they open the boxes for inspection, that makes it much less suspicious.
The tablet is impressive for the price. Build quality, thinness, performance, wireless specs, battery life. I guess that's why I'm questioning - because it looks like it falls into the "too good to be true" category.
Would love to buy a docking station that takes full advantage of the Nokia N1, whatever it offers from the Type C port out of the box or can be hacked. This press release for a dock reference design specifically mentions the N1 tablet, but I suspect because it was one of the earliest devices and not because the dock is optimized for the N1.

Yeah, I'd say he's simply wrong. And I'm a careful guy -- first thing I did after I got my new N1 running was to install AIDA64 (a free HW-analysis app; look for it in the Play Store). It confirmed that the device was not rooted.

Expansys append something like that ('Note that the box will be opened...') for a large number of listings. I guess we can assume they get their stock from a wide variety of sources and under varying circumstances.

LOL I know, right? This thing is just astonishing value for money -- a super device at an unbeatable price. Except for the disappointing camera and (so far) lack of Android v5.1.1, I'm 110% happy with my purchase.

Yep, that would be a neat accessory, for sure. Well, you never know; it's pretty clear Nokia see their future with Android devices, so maybe we can look forward to an upgraded 'N2' tablet, using the same shell.

Couldn't agree more.
The N1 is delightful in it's simplicity, with vanilla Android and elegant design. Nokia took the iPad Mini's basic look and improved it; rounding those famously 'chamfered edges' gives much better feel in the hand.

Multitasking/RAM

You're busy and don't have time to wait, which is why you need to stop reading this thread and get back to organizing your Pogs. Rate this thread to express how the Nextbit Robin performs when multitasking. A higher rating indicates that the Nextbit Robin keeps many apps in memory so that they don't need to reload, and that when moving between apps, transitions are smooth and performance is excellent.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Pretty good multitasking speed actually. That extra GB of RAM really sets it apart from 2GB phones like the 5/5x

I'm honestly not sure as I got a Robin just today (it's a great deal!), but from what I see, it used to be fairly active, but is slowly dieing. There's more and more "unofficial" ports, threads seem to be quieting down a bit, slower developments...
But then again, like I said, I'm new here, and this is just what I noticed in my brief time here.
Oh and yeah this is the wrong thread.

Well, if you buy the Nextbit Robin, it comes with a USB Type-C cable, all you need is a power brick to plug into the wall. I'm just using the one I got from my old phone. Honestly I don't know how wall charging would work in the EU since I've never traveled outside the US.
Edit: As long as the charger you buy is a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 or greater charger it will Quick Charge. Just be sure it's a certified one since there are dozens of knock offs.
Also, this will most likely not be a problem, but make sure you don't get one that uses a different Quick Charge technology like OnePlus's Dash charger.

Actually, that one's perfect. Aukey is a reputable brand and their Chargers are amazing. The one you chose will definitely Quick Charge the Nextbit Robin at the maximum speed.
Also, don't forget, Quick Charge 2.0 is backwards compatible with the original QC and regular Chargers so you can charge any phone with that charger.

Technically, yes, but considering in the EU you have laws that specifically grant a longer Warrenty to the buyer, I don't think it applies in that case.
There really should be something like this in the US.

About to catch fire?

So I have 2 units of the Note 7. One is working perfectly. The 2nd unit not so much. Looks like something is seriously wrong with the battery of this device. Has anyone else faced this? I cant return my Note 7 because I got it from UAE and I donnt live there. Is this what happens before it catches fire? Video here

who got the faulty one u or wife? haha. And same here, im still waiting for mine. atleast it wont be faulty.

To be fair, anyone can recreate this by making a video with an atrocious sound, have 2 green lines on each side, and then keep the backlit buttons on.
That video shows nothing in regards to a faulty battery.

ISIS will now start buying the note 7 and use them as grenades so that they can smuggle them in commercial airlines

Should make a video of how it reacts when you unplug?
Wow wait a minute, you aren't even charging.

can you tell me how to make 2 green lines appear on each side?
it looks like the phone motherboard/circuit board is burning to cause that.

Wow. This brings to mind another SERIOUS problem I have just remembered.
How many of us have had "problems" with any of our Phones in the past and they have locked up and wouldn't shut down even with the Power Button with the ONLY option was to remove the Battery??
I have certainly experienced this scenario a few times over the years with my Note 4 and 2 and S2.
In fact, I set up a new thread regarding this. Needs to be discussed.

my previous samsung, i think note5, cant remember which model exactly.
in the summer when i charging the phone in the car, the phone gets really hot, but it never catch fire or explode.

there are apps that make the device do this when getting notifications. looks to me like its a poorly coded app, or one meant for older edge screen device. there is even a setting in stock touchwiz for edges to light up upon notifications.
that said, the device could very well be overheated

"Set the Edge screen to light up when you receive calls or notifications while the device is turned over".
his phone is NOT turned over.

US Pre-order Thread

I pre-ordered the OnePlus 8 Pro with 12 GB RAM + 256 GB Storage in UltraMarine Blue. Along with my pre-order I got OnePlus Bullets Wireless Earbuds and a OnePlus Warp Charge 30 WireLess Charger, both free. Apparently I was lucky to get my pre-order in early because I read that they sold out within 10 minutes. If the phone is as good as I expect it to be, I'll be selling my S20 Plus 5G on Swappa.

I couldn't get my order in the ridiculous OnePlus 2 minute online out of stock window...

Got my order in, was picked up by fed ex today with delivery this Tuesday

The preorder was a disgrace! I had one in my cart and then it wasnt available. It was 9:02am PST - Oneplus probably lost my business over this, especially without mmwave...

It wasn't a pre-order, it was a limited launch with extras, don't be mad you weren't quick enough

So far the phone is blazing fast. That wireless charger is absolutely amazing. You can see a huge difference in the screen compared to the OP7 Pro, as well as overall speed. My phone was delivered yesterday (April 17th).

Well here's my launch day story...... After watching the launch day event, counting down the minutes, then seconds, on launch day, I ordered my first OnePlus device! This is, IMHO, the best, fastest, most advanced device ever created. I got the Ultramarine 12/256, wireless charger and ear buds and even included the 24 month extended warranty. Wow, was I excited! Unfortunately, it has turned into a nightmare. The order still shows "Transaction in Processing" after I was told by my bank the payment was canceled by OnePlus! Not only am I being told that I missed out on the launch day promotion, but I am not able to pay for the order still processing! I am really disappointed in the whole process and really hope OnePlus can fix this. I am sure items may be out of stock, but I am willing to wait as long as it takes to get this device. Please help!

The op called it a pre-order so I went with it and i was on top of it, actual stock must have been really low...

Pre-ordered UltraMarine Blue 12/256. Excited as much as I was for the 6, 6T, 7Pro. A bit more pricey than usual (of course) but hopefully it's a justified increase.

Stay on them with this. If it were me I'd be arguing that I deserve the launch box (items at least) when this is worked out. No way would I rest until I got what I felt I deserved or they just flat out denied it continuously. Wish you the best here.

I managed to get mine yesterday, now I just have to be patient for development ?

I'm interested in buying a one plus 8 pro. I enjoy a crisp screen and a good camera. I like my pixel 4 xl but the screen seems dull.
Is anyone coming from a pixel 4 xl to the 8 pro? How are the camera images

Hey sorry for a bit off topic, but I've read different things regarding screen protector..... Is there a pre applied protector? Some people said there was a protector included in the paperwork, but not applied.
Thanks!

I'm debating doing the same thing. I think I'll need to see how good GCam is before I either order locally or get it shipped over here.

Scratch that, the 2 in the box aren't screen protectors. I'm talking to OP support and they said unless you add one to your order you only get a pre-applied one. Lucky for me, I also don't have a pre-applied one.

Oh wow that's a shame. With the pre applied one, we at least get time to find a good one like Whitestone dome, etc.
There wasn't one to order anyway. I get mine tomorrow so we'll see. Thanks for the update

You should all appreciate being abke to order and receive you 8 P outside of the US. Not only are we later without anything free stuff, we are having to deal with idiots working for OnePlus who don't know their A__ from a whole in the ground.
I tried both the chat online and calling on a phone. The latter didn't really know enough where and how to purchase over here, but the online people were total idiots.
A lot of it is beaning able to speak English - but not understand it. If they are going to sell now overpriced phones, I think it is reasonable to expect competent service. Compared to Samsung and others - they live on a different planet.

Sale date changed from 8 days away, to 2 days away!!

Exactly what version of the 8 Pro will we be getting - the global ?

Gotta love it. I love in NY. Shipped from NJ yesterday. For some reason it's in Tennessee now. WTF? Still says I'm supposed to get it tomorrow
