several bugs with OOS 4.0 - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hi, i updated my phone to OOS 4.0 with clean install 1 month ago.
since then i have several annoying bugs :
- Bluetooth issue : my phone doesn't detect my headphone Plantronics Backbeat pro. it worked perfectly before update
- widget issue : i use a widget for calendar (business calendar) for 3 years. Now this widget disappear randomly... every time i re-add it, it disappears like 2h or 2 days after.
- I don't find a way to put my phone in vibrate mode. before i just reduced volume until it's on vibrate, but now it doesn't reduce until vibrate (minimum is like 10% volume).
The only way i found is to use "do not disturb" mode, but i don't get notification anymore...
- i also have wifi issue (slow wifi, slow play store download), but i think it started before update (even though it comes from the phone and not from my internet).
Does anyone have those problems ? it's really annoying
Thanks in advance

First tip I can give to you is to update immediately to OOS 4.0.2 because this update fixes some bugs that are present on 4.0 (but I never had problems with 4.0).
1. I think this has fixed with 4.0.2
2. I think it's a problem of that app, have you contacted the developer? Do you use Nova Launcher or stock launcher?
3. For now you can't set to silent mode the phone with the volume buttons, OnePlus has changed how the buttons work and for now that problem remains (I don't like it too, but I use the slider, it's here for something right? ). You can set the phone in vibrate mode moving the slider on the upper mode and in the settings activate the vibration
4. That problem was fixed in 4.0.2 update
So update your phone as soon as you can, the update is great

thanks for your answer ! I'll update as soon as possible then and let you know.
I use stock launcher, i'll try to add other widget to see if it comes from that app or all apps.
And about the vibrate mode, that's what i did, i use the slider at top now, but i dont get notification like that... no notification from messenger, no vibration for messenger, no led signal etc etc

I'm on 4.0.2 and have the following bugs:-
-Fingerprint reader is sometimes totally unresponsive, (not even turned on,) after a full night of Doze mode. (Not set to aggressive Doze BTW.) Pressing the power button re-enables it.
-Gmail notification doesn't disappear when you go into the email you've been notified about. It only goes when you go back to the primary inbox or delete the email.
As far as I'm concerned these are minor issues. On the whole, I'm happy with One Plus and don't have any major bugs. :victory:

Good Try other widget, yes :good:
If you don't receive notification, you have to set the app to don't optimize it in the battery settings, here you have to set to don't optimize all the apps you want notification for (whatsapp, messenger, email...).
Let me know when you've updated the phone :laugh:

Top mode is "silent" and you should be getting notifications in that mode. The middle one is "do not disturb", which blocks most notifications (depending on your settings).

OK i updated, first thing i can say is that the Bluetooth still doesn't work.. it doesn't even detect my headphone.
For the rest i'll see in long term utilization

I downgraded my device to OS 3.2.8 since Nougat (both official OS4 and OS4.02 and LineageOS) has broken bluetooth.
I can connect to my car audio but it barely works. And when I try to use the phone over BT it breaks and I need to reboot OP3. Also I have problems with my bluetooth speaker (JBL Charge2+). It connects to it much slower and sometimes it stops working.
I already complained to OP3, they put me to a remote session, downgraded my phone, I tested it in Marshmallow and saw that it works, then upgraded again to OS4.02 (wasnt working) and then tried LineageOS hoping that custom roms might have it working but it behaved exactly the same.
They told me to wait for next update, but I dont think they will do anything.
Try to submit a report ticket to them. More people bugs them, more chance they will try anything.
Anyway I am already looking for another device. This is second OnePLus device I used and both had software issues. Luckily CyanogenMod was working fine on OP1 back then. Now even the custom roms cant help me.

4.2.1 bugs on GNex

I hope there is no similar thread on this yet and I request to all to add bugs here
my device: GSM international yakju-rooted
bugs:
1. clear recent apps in landscape mode, then switch to portrait mode and the cleared recent apps are BACK!!....and vice versa!!
2. Did OTA update with Bluetooth on and cannot switch off Bluetooth now with devices paired. Bluetooth switches back on automatically as soon as I try to switch it off. Correct me if this is a change in 4.2.1 or if this is indeed a bug.
Other complaints
1. apps on lockscreen widgets starting up randomly
2. 3 sec lag to start daydream and camera app
3. butter gone
4. laggy
luckily no random reboots and broken Bluetooth as others have reported on my device yet. I am not happy Google.
1. doesn't happen with me
2. can't test that (no bluetooth accessories)
Others:
1. lockscreen needs improvement (like clock widget auto resizing itself to full screen when swiping through screens)
2. my camera app starts in less than 2 seconds
3. 4.2 is a little heavier than 4.1.2 but still buttery compared to other high end phones
4. not on my phone
Something which happens to me when creating events on calendar... If i manually type in the end time of the event and the minutes are 59 (e.g. setting the end time to 22:59) when i press okay the time goes back one hour (e.g. 22:59 becomes 21:59). Anyone else?
I have none of the issues any of you have specified.

I got the same Recent App bug, which I didn't notice before!
But overall it is running smoothly. Did you try factory reset or flashing stock image?

* I listen to podcasts via Bluetooth car audio during my drive to and from work. Ever since 4.2, I get frequent Bluetooth disconnects while I am listening to audio. This never happened before 4.2. Unfortunately, 4.2.1 did not fix it.
* When third party apps such as Locale or Tasker turn WiFi on, it will not connect to any access points in range. However if I turn WiFi on via the WiFi settings, it connects immediately.
* Car mode is broken in 4.2 and 4.2.1. A "car home" app used to be able to invoke a mode where the home button would return you to the car app instead of the desktop. Now, the home button drops you to the desktop and crashes the launcher (Android's desktop process).
* Overall, much more lag and delays. Looks like 4.2.x is optimized for the Nexus 4 and its 2GB of RAM. 4.1.2 seemed perfect -- too bad we only had it for less than a month.
Well, my screen shuts off at random.. I can still press stuff, but it's totally black!! I have to put the battery and restart
bugs
I cannot use my BT headset, it disconnects when screen is off.
Camera is very very laggy.
Wipe phone and flash complete stock image!
I have none of these bugs! Bluetooth works like a charm.
Stock browser omnibox issue. When I open bookmarks and links from 3rd party appss, it's all good.
But when I try to type a search or url, the adress bar freezes and stays frozen on the screen. Rotate the screen and it becomes a black empty wasted space.
Is it a bug in in 4.2/4.2.1 or is it my phone?

i find it takes a couple of swipes of the security pattern at times, screen doesnt always respond as quick if ive not used my phone for a few hours.
didnt happen on 4.1.2 , not a massive issue but i do notice it

Firstly, It sounds bit too much to do a complete wipe and re-flash or a factory reset for just a dot.dot update.
Also, I have been reading that for some wipe and re-flash did not fix the Bluetooth issue. Also, a just a factory reset after OTA hasn't worked for all.
Can we please have confirmation here that a the factory reset thingy works so that all of us having issues can give it a shot?
In case we should wipe and re-flash, can it be done in the following way?
1. full backup system (in my case using titanium backup)
2. factory reset
3. copy the relevant image , yakju 4.2 in my case, into memory and flash zip using cwm recovery (6.0.1.5 in my case). then flash 4.2.1 similarly.
4. restore root.
5. system data/apps restore
please let us know.
International Yakju here and I've get the most annoying out of the problems. Random soft restarts. I've done a soft reset and it didn't help. I'm getting really pissed at this. Thinking of rolling back to 4.1.x
I havent tested bluetooth but I have random errors, sometimes when phone is locked It vibrates, I unlock it and it is asking with wich program I want to open, I choose gmail and it attaches a bug report, a .txt file with 4mb and a screenshot tottaly black.
weird. 4.2.1 yakju

I agree with the 3rd and 4th points. Camera app is quite different from ISC 4.0 and Jelly Bean 4.1, both icons are rotating while the phone is rotated. However, Jelly Bean 4.2's icon, instead of rotating, they shift the position while the phone is put as horizontally. I hope these will be fixed in the near update.

I got the same bug on both my galaxy nexus and nexus 7. For those who said that they don't have this bug, did you leave at least one app on and rotate the screen while having the recent apps menu open? Try again.

Can I turn off updates
OTA update to 4.2, totally stuffed my setup, flashed 4.2.1, no difference, have now flashed stock 4.1.2. to make the phone work as it should do.
Problem 1: The signal strength meter vanished on my car screen, no indication that bluetooth had connected.
Problem 2: The speaker, as I am sure we are all aware, is rubbish. I am using the pucker car mount and have a small speaker system set up and hooked into this so that I can hear warnings from CamerAlert. The phone connects over bluetooth but the CamerAlert warnings are directed out of the device speaker and go via the car mount to the speaker system - works a treat. With 4.2 this totally disappears and I get half a warning from the device speaker itself.
Having gone to 4.2 and back I can vouch for the fact that it is the update that is wrong.It will take me another day to get the 'phone back as I want it and I will then do a full backup. Thanks a bunch Google for, really professional update.
All I want now is for the 'phone to stop nagging me to update, anyone know how to turn off updates ??
my phone freeze after taking a picture today, so weird it didn't happen before and i need to pull out the battery in order to restart the device because the power button not give a respond.. so sad.. in 4.1.x everything is good.. for the first time on my gnex i need to pull out the battery twice today.. huh!!
Wow. I was very pissed of with the overall lagginess of 4.2/4.2.1 update, but I thought I might wait and hopefully Google will fix that. But then I noticed just how ofter the stock launcher crashes (leaks from RAM anyways). 5-10 times in an hour after using heavy apps like Chrome, Pocket, Facebook etc I press home button and I get and empty wallpaper. WTF? How is this even possible for a stock app?. And then there are things I've mentioned in other similar 4.2-reated threads like camera animation that lags and music widget that stops responding and keeps playing after headphones are unplugged...Gosh, that's the worst update (for me at least) ever. And now I noticed that recent apps bug. It does exist. Awesome.

Silent mode goes on automatically during night

Sometime during night silent mode goes on, and it's on when I wake up. Then I have to use the slider to get the phone back on normal state. Quite annoying. Slider was in normal mode all the night. Anyone else? How to stop that behavior?
This happened to me too. Did you have Do Not Disturb settings set on your prior device and then restore the back up to your OP3? I have read that this is the cause of the problem - the old setting transfers over and there is no way to change them. I went into the global setting for app notifications and reset all apps. This worked for others and appears to have worked for me as well.
Having the same issue here.

Yes, actually I had it on on my OPO and I transferred apps from it to the OP3 using the installation wizard's nfc method. I did the reset, let's see if it did help..
I tested resetting notifications, did not help
Me too. Migrated from my old phone using the NFC transfer wizard. Old phone was setup to go to silent 10pm - 7am. It appears the setting is transferred over but at 7am the OP3 doesn't exit silent mode. I then have to toggle the switch to take the phone out of silent but still seem to have issues with notifications sounds afterwards.
I solved it by installing new custom rom and I didn't use restore function this time..
i too am having this issue. i attempted resetting all apps settings but that didn't work.
has anyone figured out how to fix this without factory reset or installing a custom rom?
Add me to the list and I set it up as a new device. Only had the phone a day before I applied the 3.2.0 update so I can't say if was happening before. Hope there is a fix for this soon.
IMO this is because Google is syncing the DND preferences from your Google account, regardless of whether you used the the whole "set up nearby device" thing
I have this issue except Silent mode automatically turns on throughout the day for me. I have factory reset my device and setup the device as new and the issue continues. Now I'm really unsure how to fix this.
Same issue and updating to 3.2.1 didn't fix it.
I've the same issue!
I've noticed that the sound (also from the notifications) can be turned on again (for that day) by switching off, and on the Alert Slider, and then adjusting the volume-sliders in settings.
I don't think it's a Google issue as I have 4 different phones on my account in the last month and none have done this. Just ordered another 6P while they were 20% off in warehouse deals so I'll swap over to this phone Monday and see if the issue follows. For now I'm playing with Tasker to reset all the volumes at 7am.
I've got the same issue. But I did not transfer any settings to my op3.
There's nothing in my "do not disturb" menu, and nowhere to set up automatic silent mode, as far as I can see.
Same issue faced, no solution or fix found up till now.
Me too facing the same problem.. Even in day time it goes automatically to silent mode. So incoming calls doesn't sound and it solves only when I restart the phone.. And after sometime the problem is occurring again and again.. Does anyone found the solution?
I had the same problem in my opo too..
Same here. Since the 3.2.1 update my OP3 sets to Silent overnight. Some has said it's True Caller Spam Blocker, but as I don't have this it's not a solution for me. Tried the usual reset but no luck. Really need a fix for this as I need to get important calls/texts overnight. Not a hardware problem that I can see as fine before update; broken afterwards, and the physical switch works very well.
Also, I've not used any restore function whist setting up.
It would be useful if people experiencing this problem could mention it on the OP support forum. I'm using the threads...

This is related to OOS only, i installed custom rom CM based nd didn't face this issue. Then installed.OOS no restore setup as new device still same issue with no ringtone.
The fix should come from Oneplus

Not receiving notifications unless I wake screen in OnePlus 3 running Marshmallow

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone might have any suggestions on how I could disable the Android Marshmallow doze/deep sleep mode that is default on new devices to save battery. I have a OnePlus 3 and have made every effort to check that all my notifications for calendar, whatsapp, emailing, etc. are set to both vibrate and make a sound, disabled all battery optimization features for apps, tried using screenlock wake apps to avoid missing notifications, and more. However, I am still unable to get notifications for whatsapp, emails, calendar reminders and events once my screen goes to sleep or I lock then phone and it's idle (so after about 15-30 minutes of it sleeping), but calls and texts seem to come through fine (or at least I haven't noticed these being an issue as much). This is a HUGE inconvenience, as my main reason to have a smartphone is so I can check emails, calendar events and such right as I receive them, and not only when I wake up my screen (which then bombards me with all my previous missed notifications from hours before). I have a feeling this is an android 6.0 issue and not due to the OnePlus 3, because it's been reported in other sites and by people with phones also using either this OS or lollipop. My older Samsung galaxy S4 running kitkat never had these problems, and at this point I'm very keen on going back if I can't get my new phone (or this OS, as I predict) to notify me right away even when my screen is locked and phone asleep (I can't always remember to check it especially if I'm busy at work). I am willing to root the phone and change settings if that's an option, but I would please like to see if you guys have any other suggestions for allowing my phone to receive notifications right away even when in sleep mode/idle/dozing. Thank you for your time in advance. Oh last thing, I also posted this question in other forums because I am honestly quite desperate to find out what I can do to resolve this issue, so I'm sorry if that's an inconvenience...

Oneplus just released a new oxygen OS update which takes care of the notification issues. But to resolve this before this OTA came out I rooted and disabled the doze mode with dumpsys deviceidle. So all is good now!

Problem with Notifications

Yesterday I got my new RN5 Global still running with stock MIUI Global 9.5.19.0. I noticed that notifications are not working reliably for some apps. For example I have an app set to Sound, LED light, vibration notification enabled but I dont receive any of those. When I unlock my phone I then only see the app's badge in the statusbar and the notification listed in the pulldown menue. I also already attempted to fix this by setting Battery saver to "No restriction" and Autostarts to "on". This did not help either though.
Anything else I could try to get proper notifications with this phone? This was working fine with my old Galaxy S5.

Reliable notifications was tradionally a PIA with MIUI, for me at least. It seems Xiaomi never cared that much about it functioning well. Or it is choked in favour of better battery.
Use Lineage or AOSP based if you need to rely on them. I do.
So there is no way to get notifications to work on stick MIUI? My bootloader is still not unlocked and the phone is worthless without notifications.

You'll have to dig deep into the app permissions, and then for some apps you can get reliable notification. But I can't help you with that, I'm not using Miui anymore.
I had complainted numerous times about it. If using your phone really as a work tool, which most probably not do, then you need good calendar, messenger, robust email, good collaboration, incl. rock solid notifications. But it seems that most people are rather much intersted in face unlock, double tap to wake and fingerprint. So certainly Xiaomi will care for these gimmicks, not productivity.
Notifications certainly used to be very unreliable on MIUI. But ever since miui 9, if i disable battery optimization for app and allow auto start, run in background etc. permissions, all my notifications work perfectly. Tho i only use messenger, facebook, gmail, instagram, youtube notifications

I have all those things activated for this app but it's still not working.
Same issue in MIUI 10. Tried everything from disabling battery optimisation to adding all permissions and notification sounds.
Some apps will work fine and i receive the notifications without problem e.g. messenger, facebook, gmail, whatsapp but others are completely silent e.g. hotukdeals, amazon shopping, ebay, onepulse, trello and many more despite having all the appropriate permissions will only notify silently.

Question Question of notification..... again...

Hello everyone,
I know that my has always had problems with notifications on MIUI, but with the update to 12.5.1 the problems on my Poco f3 have increased, greatly increased, some apps like gmail receive notifications with huge delay, sometimes 5 minutes, sometimes even 30 minutes, sometimes only when I use the app, almost randomly
This is unacceptable to me, I need the smartphone for work and I cannot receive notifications with such high delays, do you also have this problem?
Now, gmail has never been perfect with notifications due to the absurd power saving system (Doze), the problem is that I am forced to use it because the corporate mail is google business and it cannot be configured with any other mail client, but the notification problems are there with all the apps.
Practically the smartphone does as it wants, sometimes notifications arrive immediately sometimes ...... when he decides.
Clearly I have configured the power management, automatic start (on gmail it is not possible), app lock from the home screen etc etc, everything useless....
So I ask, do I have to change my smartphone? , or in extremis I try to put a custom rom? is the doze system active on custom roms?
thanks for all your answers
First of all, try to factory reset your phone. And let see if everything start to work or stay the same.
Since on me (running miui ID 12.5.20) everything work just well, there is no delay notification at all. Of course i set up apps ON for "autostart" and set battery behaviour to "no restriction".
