so should i just flash the whole OS again then? whats the use of just flashing the boot.img then when its bound to get erased :/

What you should do is back to everything important and then unlock your bootloader again.

Once you've done this you can do what you like.

Oneplus One Network Issue

I purchased one in January and rooted to put Oxygen OS at the time of release. Everything was working fine until a week back I dropped the phone and the screen broke. I couldn't check the exact issue but since service centre people asked me literally 12k to fix it I contacted another know service person and got the screen fixed. From the time I got my phone the imei number is missing and I am not able to use my sim, when ever I insert my aim I get an error saying "error in searching for network". The sim works perfectly fine with other phones and on other oneplus one as well. To resolve this, I followed a post and re flashed my one plus one to stock again by fastboot. Now my phone recognizes its imei number but the network issue is still there. Once the network was registered and I was able to make couple of calla but that don't last more than a minute. I am not sure what to do at this point and any help would greatly be appreciated. I am from Bangalore, India and use Tata DoCoMo as my network.

Thanks!

Unlocking the bootloader wipes the internal storage, not system files (including the boot.img). There's no point using a toolkit.

Have you tried the Qualcomm band unlocker thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-unlock-aditional-bands-qualcomm-t2877031
Also try a hard power off/battery pull by holding power for 6 seconds,
I also suggest flashing the most recent firmware (in may i think) before flashing OxygenOS

I tried by putting Oxygen OS back removing all data on phone, dint work. Then went back to stock CS 12, dint work. How to confirm if it is a Hardware fault or Software Fault?

P.S have not tried Qualcomm Band Unlocker... Will do it

I can't seem to get MMS working on Blisspop or even Oxygen OS. I've tried fixing the APN but all the settings are correct according to carrier specs. Data seems to work fine and I get signal and everything, MMS seems to be the only thing affected. Any ideas?

Hey guys I would appreciate any help.

I flashed the Dirty Unicorns ROM on my one and while it was restoring from my Google backup it got very hot. I plugged it in to charge but the battery still drained. I flashed the backup I made of stock cm12 and now my volume up button doesn't work. I tried flashing OxygrnOS but that didn't fix the problem. I can't even get to fastboot mode while the phone is off.

Any ideas?

I've got this weird big ever since i flashed custom ROM on my OPO.
The phone doesn't show me to hit "Install" whenever i try to install an apk manually. I checked if the touch is working fine by enabling "Show Touches" under development options. It resisters the touch, but doesn't act! Works for a couple of installs after a reboot, but turns back to the same after some installs. I face this in every ROM I've tried.
AOSPA > Euphoria

Yep, I'm! But it's the same even without applying any themes or stuff.

OnePlus One still on CM11?

I just got my OnePlus One today and realised that it came with lollipop 4.4.4 and CyanogenMod 11.0XNF9XBS28k. Is this normal, have other users already got CM12? Was it supposed to be 11s?

That isn't right, 4.4.4 is KitKat, not Lollipop. Where did you buy the phone? If it has CyanogenMod on it then it isn't running the stock ROM. CyanogenMod is the nightly branch, Cyanogen OS is the stock ROM for this device.

I bought it from the official site.

Please post screenshots from Settings>About Phone so I can see more information.

Bluetooth issues

My phone has been having Bluetooth issues I guess the same as a lot of people with the phone and certain car stereos. It lags and skips, sometimes speeds up. So here is what I've done so far.

The phone is on the latest CM12: yng1tas2i3. The car is a 2015 VW golf.

I had read that AudioFX/Maxx audio were the possible cause of this issue. So I followed the guide to install Viper4android and it seemed a little better but did eventually have some skips and lagging.

Previously I had also flashed a few different ROMs including, CM12.1, Xenon HD, SlimLP, and Oxygen OS. The only one that didn't have Bluetooth issues was Oxygen OS but the downside is it is much slower/less responsive. So I'm wondering if this problem was ever pinpointed and if it has to do with the audio driver or whatever.

Is there a way to get the Oxygen OS driver onto CM12? Like just flashing the stock Android Bluetooth/audio driver? Cause that seems to be the only thing working. Thanks for any help.

You're in the wrong section, this thread is specific to the OnePlus One.

I am not new to ROM flashing process.
But I am new to OPO, just got 2nd hand OPO for a few days.

I wonder why when I flash a custom ROM by following the instruction.

I found that when I flashed the ROMs and reboot it is about 10 of 30 ROMs will stuck at [1] logo and then bootloop.

( I am search the ROM thread and no one stuck like me. )

I still not know what is the cause.

Thank you in advance. :laugh::laugh::laugh:
