Oneplus announced release of OOS 3.1.4 fixing ram and display issues

[sankalp217]

The interesting thing is that this is not really "insane" usage. There is nothing too unusual running there (maybe only Wakelock detector). Yes, I do prefer flipboard that does use quite a bit of memory, but I'd rather use this instead of facebook or goggle now. I like the presentation and functionality of Flipboard. As a matter of fact there is no facebook app running (or installed) on my system. I think it is a worse offender when it comes to resource hogging (in many cases battery draining). I'm not a very active FB user and when I need it, I'd rather not use the FB app (just a browser). Also on my system there is no google now or google on tap running (those would be running on many other phones). I have completely got rid of new Google App and installed an older version that is faster, more efficient and doesn't bug me to use "cards" that I currently don't need and don't want.
Launcher is replaced with Apex that is quite light and very fast. It might be obsolete (haven't been updated in a year), but it does what I need better than the rest. I have purchased Nova Prime, tried a bunch of others and still came back to Apex. So there is only one launcher running and Oxygen Launcher was removed from the system. Not using shelf. Other people might get higher resource usage with stock launcher, many widgets and shelf running.
I have completely removed Google Photos. Gallery is the only gallery app (might replace it later with old version of QuickPic).
I also removed (or replaced) several other system apps that I don't use. I don't have most popular social apps either (no FB, no VK, no Snapchat, no Twitter, etc). No heavy games (like Asphalt or whatever else out there).

That being said, I think my system is actually quite optimized for my needs. My fairly high Screen On Time actually proves that all is working very nicely. This memory usage is not that unusual.
I don't use all of the following, but you might consider these apps that can fill up ram quite a bit: Launcher, System settings, Phone app, Texting app, Clock, Calculator, File Explorer, Browser, Gallery, Camera, Play Store, Maps, Gmail, Dropbox (or GDrive), Google App. Those are fairly commonly used. Add several tabs in the browser. Then add to these shopping apps (Amazon, ebay, etc). Then Music apps (Spotify or Pandora, Poweramp, etc). Then Video apps (Youtube, Netflix etc). Then social apps (FB, VK, Twitter, Snapchat, Instagram, Skype, Whatsapp etc). Then one or two games... and that memory is most likely will be filled quite a bit with cache. Nothing really insane.

Good to know that I wasn't the only one who thought that Facebook app was a resource hogger and used it in the browser. I got about 4.5 gb of usage running 3-4 chrome tabs, rr3 and many other small apps open in the background. (around 15-20)

Wonder if the new update will help will fix the Bluetooth issues many users including myself are having. Hope so.

I'm using several bluetooth devices and haven't experienced any issues.

Is it the OS or the BT device causing issues?

Anandtech just posted an update to their original review regarding the OnePlus3 display, stating:

To say that OnePlus's new sRGB mode provides a substantial improvement in display accuracy would be an understatement. The display has gone from being the most inaccurate display that I've seen in years, to being among the most accurate displays that we have on record.

I hope all reviewers revise their original reviews. It seems that all the "problems" will be non-issues after a few more patches.

What bt issues?

 

[x.0ni.x]

What bt issues?

Low volume and Bluetooth stuttering. I'm experiencing both bad.

 

[acheney1990]

What bt issues?

I use a Bluetooth speaker and 2 different pairs of Bluetooth headphones with no issues. The issues I'm reading online and that I'm experiencing are with Bluetooth in cars. Both my 2013 Toyota Corolla and 2015 Chrysler 200 have the same issue. They will usually connect fine but soon drop off, the phone will still say connected on both the phone and cars but will begin to play over the phone speaker, not the car. I can still change songs and stuff using the car controls.

No issues here. Whether it is car or bt speaker. I think yours is hardware issue though because I have extensively tested the device bt and never had such issues. I doubt OP will recognize the issue because they never do lol

I don't have even seen someone that have received the 3.1.3 via OTA!, mine is still at 3.1.2 but have heard of some that 3.1.3 was already on their phone when they received it.

 

[Jfxmedia]

Now that anandtech has revised the OP3's display and approved, let's hope that Oneplus will be pushing that update our way asap. :good:

Yeah I got mine with 3.1.3 installed. Love this device.

 

[Skiking73]

I received my op3 on June 27th and it had 3.1.3 on it already.

 

[tnttrx]

maybe just thier OTA servers are down, do that they cannot supply us with 3.1.3 upgrade
