[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathlynn22:
OK so after posting a few #summershots on weekend. I didn't hear anything. Was in the process of emailing someone about buying his Chinese version. Then literally 10mins ago none other then my god damn oneplus one invite comes flying along via email. After jumping for joy for waiting a lonnng time. I realise s*** I haven't got paid yet. Now I'm in the UK. I get paid 28th invite expires I'm guessing 27th at 2200. How do you pay through checkout. Is it bank account details PayPal what. Only thing is I don't wanna pay for it and go overdrawn you get me. Lol. I'm feeling excitement and disappointment ATM:(. Help through this process from anyone would be welcome thanks.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DuckMcQUack:
You have 24 hours to take your invite and then 24 more hours to buy the phone so you cabn wait a bit, make your counts.

If you can't wait, just get some money laid by a friend and give them back later :good::laugh:
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathlynn22:
OK that's an idea so in theory I have 48 hours then. So I have 24 hrs to claim and then 24 hours after claiming to pay.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kokocabana:
You pay through paypal. If you connected your bank account to paypal you can use that or add your credit card to paypal(which is probably the easiest).
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathlynn22:
Missus shouting at me cos I'm acting like a kid at Christmas. Haha. Is the payment process simple just through say PayPal?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathlynn22:
I got PayPal so that's fine just worried about missing it.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathlynn22:
All good oneplus are processing my order. I'll soon be a fellow OPOer.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EasyGoingXD:
good to here that :), got my oneplus 2 weeks ago and i ****ing love it!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nathlynn22:
You based in UK? If so how long did it take you to get it? Did you unlock boot loader and root straight away? Haven't read any of the guides yet but I'm presuming its easy enough?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EasyGoingXD:
No i do live in austria. I waited about 1 week after i orderd it -_- First thing what i did i downloaded from XDA the oneplus one toolbox an from there you can easyle unlock your bootloader and rooting your opo. Just boot in the Download Mod and connect your phone with the pc. The just press one button and thats it so its very easy :)
[ONE General] bradm23:
I just wanted to get a poll going regarding "ghost touches" on CM11s 33r release. When I first updated to 33r, the touch screen was great and it seemed like the firmware update fixed the issue. However, after using my device, the touch panel once again became stubborn and the "ghost touches" appeared once again.

This issue reminds me of the 2013 Nexus 7 which to this day still hasn't been resolved. It is weird how the phone will work fine and then all of a sudden become unresponsive. I notice this especially when typing, sometimes the keyboard will show a swipe gesture even though I am physically typing.
[ONE General] bbowman:
nope, never had this problem.
[ONE General] Elvecio:
I had this problem 1-2 times in a month of usage. Not a great issue but it definitely existed. With 33r i experienced no more ghost touches, just some occasional touchscreen freeze (unlocking phone was impossible until the system reboot).

Issues that are making me angry are others: touchscreen responsivity and precision, for example. Typing with my 1+1 is a total pain.
[ONE General] mydroidfren:
working smooth & fast no problems...
[ONE General] hari623:
had ghost swipes ever since I got CM11S and had it for every update. Didn't really get better each time.

was on stock kernal now with ak, just a BIT better but still experience it every 6-7 words.

Hope they completely fix this soon.
[ONE General] dreamerguy00:
Never had ghost touches on stock rom :D
[ONE General] Quinnaay:
I had ghosting everywhere
[ONE General] bradm23:
I am so far surprised on the results. I have two friends with the opo and both of them also have the touch screen issue. Is there any info we can compare to see if there is a different touchpanel used for those who are experiencing the problem vs those who are not?
[ONE General] nba:
For sure. Mine still have. For me the biggest problem is the poor latency performance, the worst that i experience. Coming from a HTC one, M7. Running nightlies actually.
[ONE General] mdavario4:
Have ghost touches since update to 33R, never before. Is this sw or hw related?
[ONE General] GalaxyFan88:
Especially when typing moderately fast, the screen does not seem to be able to distinguish between two touches. It kind of "swallows" the symbols I have pressed on the keyboard resulting in a disastrous typing experience. Before I had a Nexus 5 and it that respect it was definitely more precise (and sensitive) to touches. Typing without any hiccups. Just the way it should be.

Also sometimes my opo, while surfing through websites; when I try to touch a small hyperlink, it doesn't seem to recognize the interaction. I have to touch the link several times to get the screen to recognize it.

This, paired with the typing issues makes using the opo awfully complicated touch-wise. I have to artificially slow down my typing speed to lessen the erratic behaviour of the screen. A no go in my opinion and I am thinking about returning my opo and insist on a refund for the stated reasons.

This is a major problem and OnePlus better get their asses up, admit the faults and solve the problems.
[ONE General] tpierce89:
Same here. I love this one plus one, but the typing issue is a huge problem for me. If they don't fix it I'll have to jump ship when I can get something new.
[ONE General] GalaxyFan88:
Agree. It's a love-hate relationship; the specs and furthermore the price-performance ratio are absolutely great but that one issue really keeps me off staying with the opo.

I will wait a bit and see how well the problem-analysis goes. Considering how the alleged touchscreen driver fix didn't fix anything at all (at least for me) makes me seriously doubt that there will be a final fix for this issue, ever.
[ONE General] mydroidfren:
no typing issues or lag its way faster than note3 on par with nexus 7 if not slightly smoother in total experience. since i got used to sony's xperia keyboard i'm using the kk emoji keyboard from playstore on ONO which is faster.
[ONE General] flame360:
I used to have them all the time, to the point I couldn't get pass the lock screen.

I even though of doing an RMA, while hesitating. I decided to do a full wipe and install crdroid ( i knew the developer had them to and was trying to fix them ) now it's a thing from the past I never get them anymore.

I'm not saying crdroid is miracle fix, I'm just stating what happened to me.

If your rooted and occasionally flash ROMs it may be worth a try.

Also a friend of mine just received his today. If he has ghost touches will try crdroid again and if it works will report here.
[ONE General] dondavis007:
Nope, nemas problems on my phone.
[ONE General] Shahrukh-Suhail:
Had it for the first time couple of days ago. After rebooting the device, everything went normal.
[ONE General] Birdsfan:
After initial flashing I had the ghost touch issues but after a few days they went away...my 2013 Nexus 7 does the same thing and it pisses me off cause I'm rebooting the thing every couple of days to fix it.
[ONE General] brutalsam:
Having some touch issues, 33r update, i don't know how toy call them ghost touch it whatever it's very annoying when i try to pull notification bar it pulls back down, and i get more typos thought it was me typing bad =)

Well probably my issue is touchscreen latency, anyway that is not a catastrophic, they will fix it, so brace yourselves update is on the way [emoji6]
[ONE General] KJX:
Previously i have no ghost touch at all.. But suddenly, i got ghost touch after the update.. I dun know why man.:confused:

Any1 suffering this issue ?
[ONE General] bradm23:
Mine was stubborn before 33r but not as bad as it is now. When I first did the 33r update it worked great, but after some time the problems and back and worse than ever.

I am shocked that only about 50% of users are experiencing them. Makes me wonder if there is different hardware being used
[ONE General] megatomic:
No, not on my device.
[ONE General] osmosizzz:

Is that problem more on the early built devices?
[ONE General] Myst3ry:
alright.... so im on the latest build/OTA rooted... and i still have this damn issue!! lol is there a way to fix this yet? or atleast a different ROM with the fix?

I heard the nightlies had a digitizer/touch fix (since it was a software/driver bug i believe) but is this true?

I also wouldn't mind switching to a different ROM, I'll gladly give up some stability and battery life for a fully functioning touchscreen -_-
[ONE General] Technowhiteboi:
I feel you on that man
[ONE General] jlevy73:
I've tried all the Roms and it doesn't fix this issue for me. It's really the only thing holding back an otherwise nice device. But since I type over a 100 emails/day on my phone it's a real killer. What scares me about this issue is that it seems about 50% of people are affected. If it were only a software problem, I would expect nearly everyone to be affected. Which makes me believe the problem lies partially with the hardware. I guess only time will tell.
[ONE General] AhmedFaiz:
Using this device for a more than a month on PA never experienced any touch issue at all so far. Being running fluid as butter. Hoping device's with this issue get fixed soon. Heard One plus and cm team is working on it.

[ONE General] deathdark:
I have Touchscreen issues too. If I tap with my 2 thumbs alternating and fast There will be a swipe. tested using the app 'markers'. Sometimes there is only a small swipe around the area which I touched with one thumb. But mostly both touched areas will be connected with a line. This mostly happens if the 2 touched areas are close to each other. If there is more space between em I recognize the small Swipes. When im using only one thumb there are none Bugs. It seems that the screen is thinking that the thumb is moving from touch area 1 to area 2 if the both touches came with a fast delay between em

Edit: Tested with pa, cm11s, cm11 nightlies. Using Stock Kernels of the Roms First and ak, Franco for some additional Tests. All combinations are delivering the Same result
[ONE General] Silverquark:
No real ghost touches but i have an issue when i type quickly. Some inputs are just ignored or are recognized as swypes.
[ONE General] richeazy:
I'm having the same problem. I emailed oneplus support and they told me that if the 33R update did not fix multi-touch issues then the problem is hardware related. I've had the phone for more than a month now but the person I'm emailing told me they would refer me to someone who can get me an exchange. Hopefully this goes well...
[ONE General] ThaGeNeCySt:
when typing fast, i get "swipes"... using swift key, i disabled swipe... and it's a little better but for the most part, iinstead of "swipes" i get missed keys and sometimes words erase (because of the swipe left to erase last word feature that's enabled when swipe typing is disabled)

Huge annoyance.

---------- Post added at 09:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 AM ----------

I'm of the opinion that those who don't experience it.. don't type as fast as we do. I'm a speed typist (I debug/create programs all day for work) so on a regular keyboard, i can type 90+ words a minute with minimal typos... i'm also quite fast on a touch screen input

Thunderstorm of ghost touches. :)
[ONE General] Denisuu:
I sent mine back trough Paypal buyers protection like you can see here in the first post: LINK

But my brother and 9 other friends have the same phone the weird thing is 2 friends bought the phone before me they have the same problem, but all the other phone's have no problem at all. And they all arrived about 2 months after mine. (At least they claim they don't have any problems)

I tested 3 phones by doing this test:

[YOUTUBE]watch?v=XsGPsDP4V0U[/YOUTUBE]

1 did the same thing. The 2 others that arrived after mine did not.

I asked the other friends they all say they don't have it. So counting the phone I had my brothers phone and the friends 11 devices where 3 have the problem. At first I didn't believe the friends that where claiming there touchscreen was perfectly fine. Also there are only 2 that don't have the yellow tint at all.

So maybe they just have a newer revision? I am afraid to buy a new Oneplus because I don't want to go trough all the trouble again. On the other side there is no phone that looks as good with the same hardware in the same price range...
[ONE General] teh_g:
I occasionally get the ghost swipes between typing keys on SwiftKey. It has been somewhat sporadic. I kind of assume it was due to home being used to typing on the Nexus 5, which had been very sensitive screen.
[ONE General] osmosizzz:
Also having the issue and I consider myself a very fast typist. Just have to slow down now I guess.

Sent from my OnePlusOne
[ONE General] teh_g:
I still get the occasional ghost swipe even when I feel like I am typing slowly. I can't get it to happen with specific types, so I am not sure what actions is causing it.
[ONE General] conalt:
If you enable "Pointer Location" in Developer Options and swype with two fingers/thumbs close together you can see the glitches as it gets confused between the inputs.

A very unfortunate flaw for such an impressive device. Will be curious to see if they can hide it with software fixes or not.
[ONE General] kaynpayn:
No need, really. All you have to do is disable swipe typing so the phone isn't registering swipes at all. That way it doesn't matter if you get a ghost swipe by typing fast, it won't affect typing.

It's not ideal (since you even have to lose the swipe function) but it's much better that having random crap screwing up your typing. Was driving me mad. If you combo it with a keyboard that has good prediction capabilities (like SwiftKey) , it probably won't slow you down much. That's what I do.

I've had the phone for nearly 2 months now and I've never experienced ghost touches. I'm using Franco's Kernel along with CM11s. I guess I was one of the lucky ones. I didn't even have the low call volume issue or the yellow band.
[ONE General] Gorerotic:
I had some ghost touches a while ago, but they seem to be resolved by the new synaptics firmware that has been pushed out on 33r. Haven't had incidents with ghost touches since then.

The only thing that bugs me is the genereal sensitivity of the screen, tapping fast on my phone is sometimes recognized as a swipe.
[ONE General] om22:
I think and hope it will be completely fixed by firmware patches from synaptics.
[ONE General] muzhik:
what a difference... using swiftkey with swipe disabled, thank you for the hint
[ONE General] kaynpayn:
I know, right? :) it also made the a world of difference to me since I can now type fast again.

Of course there's still the issue the other fellow mentioned of getting a ghost swipe back and delete your word because I don't think you can disable that particular function on SwiftKey (didn't find how) but I've yet to experience that one. I'm guessing one can just not use SwiftKey if that's really an issue (maybe go with Google keyboard?).

[ONE General] bradm23:
Sadly for me Franco R17 didn't fix my touchscreen issues. I can't type at even a decent speed without getting miss letters or the occasional swipe even though I didn't swipe. I have had a trouble ticket in with one plus for three weeks already! I have also used a friends 1+ for two days and typing was flawless compared to what I have been dealing with.

I opened a pay pal dispute to get my money back, however I did send one plus an email giving them one week to help me with a replacement before sending mine back which is only fair since this firmware didn't fix my issue and it is def faulty hardware. I really like the phone and really enjoyed using my friends when it was actually working as intended.

Hopefully one plus will stand by their customers and help get this replaced. I personally would stop giving out invites until you have fixed previous buyers issues. Pay pal said if they get enough disputes they will close their accounts.

[ONE General] heardamir:
ghost touch

My device was okay, I'd get the odd responsiveness issue when unlocking the device, but today i'd say things escalated fairly quickly.

I pulled it out of my pocket at lunch and the screen was flashing on and off again. When i tried to swipe my pattern, it would fail as it was registering touches elsewhere on the screen. Given this, it was also REALLY difficult to restart the device, as long hold shut down didn't seem to work, and when the shutdown reboot screen flashed up, it would be dismissed by random touches.. It's just done it again within an hour of it's last occurrence. This time, it wasn't in my pocket, it's just been sitting on my desk. This leads me to assume that it's not static as I read earlier.

quite disappointing

[ONE General] kaynpayn:
Here's a thought, and bare with me here, but how about opening an rma ticket with one plus? Sure, this phone has touch issues. But ghost touches are not normal. Mine has issues. I opened a case with op, they ruled it hardware's fault and sent me a new one. And sure enough, it's not perfect yet but it has no ghost touches. And after updating to 38r I no longer have ghost swipes and I can zoom properly. I notice it's slightly worse if the phone is in some surface but it's perfectly doable and I would hazard the regular bloke wouldn't notice the difference. On 38r I would need to reboot my phone about twice a week to prevent some deterioration on sensitivity. After 44r I have yet to experience that.

So my point is, sure, phone isn't perfect. But it's got to a point where it's nearly there, it's perfectly usable and if anything unusual is happening just open a rma ticket. Sure, you'll probably be left with no phone for about a month but in the end that's preferable to be stuck with a malfunctioning phone forever.

That or just sell it and move on :p

Hey guys , I want to buy the device but one thing that really concerns me is the issue with ghost touches and the problems with the touchscreen ( as i read in the forums there is a software and a hardware problem - grounding issues ).

I believe the software issues are resolved with the software updates but what about the hardware ones? Did they plan replacing the screen manufacturer so we can safely order the phone and skip all the issues? Is it safe to make an purchase, what do you guys suggest?
[ONE General] gasterakos:
Ghost touches fix

Well guys some people including me, have fixed this since the 38R update and all works fine. But for some people probably is a hardware problem.
