    Is it really that big and heavy? (here comes the jokes but seriously though)

    Coming from the 5t, the size and weight of the 7 Pro were a little jarring at first but I'm getting used to it. One thing I really miss from the 5t is the ability to show the notification shade by swiping the fingerprint sensor. There's no using the 7 Pro 1-handed.

    Let's see the battery life

    Just got my 8/256gb nebula blue 7 pro last night! First day of use today, getting everything set up, typical new phone stuff, getting all apps installed/signed into etc. Almost 3hrs sot so far with brightness usually around 50%, mostly on wifi, some Spotify streaming over Bluetooth, taking a few...

    Why am I getting adds on my phone when I'm doing something on my phone

    Ads are just part of a lot of free apps. That's how the developers of said free apps make money and stay in business. To get rid of them, you'd have to either see if they have a "premium" version or upgrade to remove ads, or find a different app.

    How Long to upgrade Android phonea?

    How long an upgrade takes depends largely on the model & capability of the phone, as well as how big the update is as well as how many apps you have installed. If the update continues for much longer without showing any progress, you might try force-restarting the device (usually done by...

    I love OnePlus 5

    Loved the amazing battery life, super-convenient fingerprint sensor, custom gestures, amazing look & feel. Camera was ok. Ended up returning it though because of the "jelly screen" :'(

    Phone dies at "30%"

    My Moto X has been doing the same thing regarding the battery, dying around 30%. Lithium batteries do lose their ability to hold a charge over time, maybe the battery is simply wearing out.

    What would cause my apps to just stopand disappear?

    Apps "crashing" (stopping) is pretty common when your device is low on storage/memory. Can I ask what brand/model your device is, what carrier/plan you use, how much memory/storage you have? I may be able to help you out a lot more once we know that. One thing for you to try that may help: Go...

    One Plus 5 - Colours

    Hi Noea, The OnePlus 5 is available in Slate Gray (64gb version) and Midnight Black (128gn version). Currently, these are the only colors available. I haven't heard anything suggesting they plan on adding more colors, but you never know.

    OnePlus 5 "Jelly" scrolling - Should you be worried?

    Really hoping this is a software issue that can be fixed. Yes, the panel is refreshing from bottom to top, but maybe by declaring the panel as inverted in the kernel (more on that here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/help/jelly-scrolling-kernel-test-t3631232) the software is also...
