    Android 12.

    Weird looking yoke but I suppose I'll get used to it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,325 ✭✭✭NATLOR


    Updated and all good



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 291 ✭✭01902


    Is anyone else on 3 and the update has stopped 5G working?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 291 ✭✭01902


    Not sure if it's One Plus or 3 but 5G works in SIM slot 2 but not slot 1 if anyone else is having trouble.



  • Registered Users Posts: 585 ✭✭✭the heathen


    Yeah - I installed it last night - big change.

    A word of caution. If you have Intune and your company portal on your OnePlus, do not upgrade to Android 12 as you won't be able to access your work email anymore. No sign of a fix being released yet for this.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭SickBoy


    Not sure if it's just me but I cannot snooze or dismiss my alarm until I unlock the screen.

    In Android 11 the alarm was interactive on the lock screen.



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Same for me. By the time you have managed to turn off the alarm, you are definitely awake! No snooze needed.



  • Registered Users Posts: 56 ✭✭Wamwig


    Same for me, also 5G much slower when running tests. Used to get around 500 down before update now only getting 30-40. 4G is now consistently faster. Never seen One Plus make such a mess of an update and I've had many One Plus phones

    Hey guys,

    Thinking of picking up a 9 Pro (if I can find one for around €6-650) as my S10+ is on it's last legs. How is the camera quality and battery life on them from first hand experience? Online reviews look good. Cheers.

    I only have the 9 so I suspect the pro camera is even better but I find the camera quality is great.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,743 ✭✭✭Irish Gunner


    Had update for android 12 but never updated

    Went to update it now and not available still on android 11?



  • Registered Users Posts: 56 ✭✭Wamwig


    Stay on it, 12 has ruined the phone, battery rubbish, can't turn off alarm, 5G crawls along



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Agree with previous poster, don't upgrade until they have ironed out the problems. My battery life has improved with Android 12. I need to find out how to downgrade back to 11 as I can't be without access to work email and apps. Neither Google, Microsoft or OnePlus seem to be doing anything about it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,325 ✭✭✭NATLOR


    I also had the alarm clock issue but it seems to be working OK now am able to switch off/ snooze from the lock screen

    Another issue I just noticed, the software update button in the about decice setting isn't responding. Anyone else have this problem



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Does anyone know where I can get a USB cable compatible with the OnePlus warp charger. Any cable I use except the one that came with the charger or phone does not charge the phone at warp speed

    The cables are out of stock on the OnePlus store



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,505 ✭✭✭✭blade1




  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Yes, no original OnePlus cables on Amazon UK or DE.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,712 ✭✭✭54and56


    So who's thinking of pre-ordering the OnePlus 10 Pro 5G at 16:20 during the global launch tomorrow (March 31st?)? Are the "free" Buds Pro a good set of earbuds?

    I've more or less had every second model of OnePlus since launch including the original OPO and currently still happy with my 7T Pro but tempted by the 10 Pro's fast wireless charging and general upgrade overall but also tempted to wait for the Google Pixel 7 as I think the vanilla Android experience offered on the Pixel 6 combined with better hardware and battery which should hopefully be coming in the next iteration of the Pixel series sounds like it could be great and worth waiting for.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,258 ✭✭✭✭MrStuffins


    If the buds are like the ones they shipped with the OP9 Pro then don't bother. They are utterly unuseable. The capacitive buttons on the side are so sensitive that normal walking makes them pause/play. It's ridiculous!

    Apparently the "Pro" buds are actually very very good. Excellent sound, high volume, very good "smart" ANC and the microphones for calls / Teams etc seem (from the 3-4 reviews I watched) to be right up there with the very best.

    Not sure I'll pull the trigger on the 10 Pro but I might buy the Buds Pro 🤭

    updated to android 12 , network does'nt show 5G anymore , shows 4g+ but still getting 5G speeds on 3 Ireland , any idea why this is?



  • Registered Users Posts: 25 Wickan3080


    From reading the thread i believe this is a bug yet unfixed when you update to android 12



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,712 ✭✭✭54and56


    Decided I'm still a OnePlus customer but boy have prices (and in fairness specs etc) increased from 2014 to 2022!!




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 602 ✭✭✭one man clappin


    Im hoping one one of the mobile companies will add it to their stock.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,409 ✭✭✭xtal191


    Should've saved yourself a few €100 and got the 9 Pro instead



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,505 ✭✭✭✭blade1


    Since update around Christmas my camera usually freezes when opened.

    Have to restart the phone to get it working.

    Anyone else with this problem?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,603 ✭✭✭Ferris_Bueller


    Will be in the market for a new phone over the next few weeks/months and this is one that caught my interest, hard to call between this and the Pixel 6 Pro. Even the OnePlus 9 pro could be an option if it is available on the cheap now. Seems like all flagship phones have a few major flaws to them now if you are to believe the reviews you read online.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,712 ✭✭✭54and56


    Maybe but I've always had a strategy of buying the highest spec phone (laptop, tablet etc) I can afford as soon as it comes out and then try to use it for as long as possible before upgrading. This usually means I get the guts of 3 years out of each phone (and longer out of laptops and tablets etc) and end up skipping a generation or two before upgrading again which in this case means I've gone OnePlus One in 2014 -> OnePlus Five in 2017 -> OnePlus 7T Pro in 2019 (decided to trickle down the 5 to my son at the time) and now the OnePlus 10 Pro which I expect to use until late 2024 or early 2025. That'll be 4 OnePlus phones across 10 years costing a total of €2,725 with cases etc.

    That averages 2.5 years a phone at a cost of €275 a year.

    I'm happy enough with that.

    I am a bit like that - I think cos of the pandemic and not really going anywhere, I put up with my OnePlus 5T for an extra 2 years so I am upgrading from 5T to maybe that new 10 Pro as I really want a new phone but definitely see myself having it for a few years. This would be my 3rd OnePlus phone. They are a great phone.

    The price has definitely risen over the years but still cheaper than the iPhone and well I reckon just as good.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,743 ✭✭✭Irish Gunner


    Still on android 11 and not updated to 12

    What's 12 like now all bugs etc fixed

    Not rooted so no biggie updating is it straight forward



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭SickBoy


    I've been on 12 for a while now without issue but just today, for no reason, the fingerprint unlock has just gone away. I can't work out what has happened, it's not turned off in the security options. Reading the oneplus forums, this is something that can happen out of the blue and the recommendation is to perform a hard reset which is something I'm not prepared to do right now. Hopefully an update is released to address this.

    Stay on 11 for now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,505 ✭✭✭✭blade1


    That's happens mine from time to time.

    A restart sorts it.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭SickBoy


    I tried multiple restarts, full power down and power on and no joy.

    When I say the fingerprint unlock is gone away, I don't mean it's not recognising my fingerprint, I mean it doesn't illuminate to offer the fingerprint unlock, it's just full on not an option to unlock the phone.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,505 ✭✭✭✭blade1


    Yeah I get ya.

    The fingerprint on mine disappears as well.

    Thankfully a restart fixes mine.

    Just hit the order button on a new OnePlus One 9 Pro....had the original years ago and then went back to iPhone for a few years....I tend to do that, jump from Apple to Android every few years, each having their own advantages.

    The 9 Pro looks great though, looking forward to it - any immediate suggestions from existing users?



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    Is anyone with Vodafone and has got 5g on the OnePlus 9pro? I don't seem to get 5g even though the phone is set to 5g and I am on a 5g plan.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭SickBoy


    Not sure if it would matter but have your tried your Vodafone SIM in the other SIM location?



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I got the following reply from OnePlus in relation to 5g in Ireland:

    Please be informed that as of now the OnePlus 9 Pro device is do not have an access with the 5G network in the Ireland region because of the band variations. So that we are requesting you to please contact the carrier provider for further updates and also we are requesting you to please stay tuned for upcoming updates to resolve the issue.

    That's not what I meant.

    There are 2 SIM slots in the SIM tray, have you tried the Vodafone SIM in both locations?



  • Registered Users Posts: 2,491 ✭✭✭golondrinas


    I’m in Spain. Is € 789 a good price for one+ 10 pro?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,534 ✭✭✭SickBoy


    Looks like a good deal. The 8gb model is €900 on their website.



  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    I got 5g with Vodafone yesterday for first time ever. They have obviously fixed whatever was preventing us getting 5g on Vodafone Ireland network.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 962 ✭✭✭Unknownability


    Has anyone found a way to get swipe up back on a one plus 9 pro? Have had the phone in a box for six months, started using it today and had the swipe up and now I've updated the software and it's gone.

    Very frustrating, I found it very handy for one hand usage.



  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭CuriosityKilledtheCat


    Looking to change my phone, currently have S10+

    Was tempted by OnePlus 10Pro but dont see any thread here and I'm a bit confused about SIM slots. Can anyone confirm if OnePlus 10 had dual SIM capability?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,712 ✭✭✭54and56




  • Registered Users Posts: 87 ✭✭CuriosityKilledtheCat


    Thank you for that. Can I ask how do you find the camera quality - thats another important aspect for me



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,712 ✭✭✭54and56


    I'm a fairly casual user of the camera, typical family / holiday type stuff but I think it's amazing to be honest. I know from reviewers like Marques Brownlee who are very focused on camera performance (https://youtu.be/7IaYSxDp88s?t=430) that they are impressed with it but it's not absolutely top end like the Samsung S22 Ultra etc.

    I'm sure this probably won't upload very well when compressed to display here but here's a pic I took the weekend before last on the Tour de Bera (original 13mb file attached to this post above) which I thought was pretty good given I just use the default settings etc.
