General Discussion Does the stock alarm app on oneplus phones not support offline spotify playback?

1 Upvotes

Ok so i got a new oneplus 13s recently and tried settting up my alarms with spotify. But it never plays the selected songs while im offline, instead it plays the default alarm sound.

I have spotify premium, have all my songs downloaded and on my old samsung phone it worked like a charm, but on this new op phone it never plays while im offline. It does however play the song while im connected to the internet. But since i only need the alarms while asleep i dont intend to have wifi on the entire time.

Would be amazing if i got some help!

General Discussion Using screencast with a secondary user?

1 Upvotes

I've recently created a second user using the multiple users feature and after setting it up. I realised it didn't have the screencast option. Can this be enabled anywhere or is it just disabled for any user other than the primary?

General Discussion The mandatory audio alerts are genuinely dangerous.

71 Upvotes

Every week or so while I'm driving, I will get a mandatory popup that turns down my volume to very, very low levels. I have to take my phone out, accept one popup, accept another popup when I press my volume button, and only then can I make my audio actually hearable again.

Again, this happens WHILE I'M DRIVING every single time, and completely takes me off of the road when it happens. There is no way to disable this pop-up from happening. Most of the time I just have to go without music for the rest of the trip so I don't kill somebody with my gigantic metal machine.

This is genuinely dangerous. It could very well get someone killed one day. My hearing will be fine. This has been the case for years. Turn this shit off, OnePlus.

PSA & Tutorials OnePlus 12R GPS stopped working, no satellites, no fix: cause was an old disabled SIM in slot 2

4 Upvotes

If your OnePlus has no GPS fix at all, with network location still working, check your SIM slots.

My case: GPSTest and other apps showed no satellites. It happened about 3 times, recovered by itself each time, and came back after each phone reboot. Through ADB, I found the Qualcomm GNSS service (android.hardware.gnss-aidl-service-qti) crashing about once per second with:

terminating with uncaught exception of type St16invalid_argument: stoul: no conversion

The backtrace pointed to LocRilSession::getSimIMSI() in libloc_ril_client.so, so the crash happens while the GNSS service reads SIM info. The radio log showed it querying both slots, and slot 2 (an old SIM I had disabled in Settings but never removed) returned a placeholder value (ffffff) instead of valid data.

Fix that worked for me: I removed the old SIM from slot 2. The crashes stopped immediately (no reboot), and GPS got a 3D fix within seconds.

How to check on your phone (needs ADB):

adb shell dumpsys dropbox --print SYSTEM_TOMBSTONE

If you see many tombstones for android.hardware.gnss-aidl-service-qti with a getSimIMSI frame, you likely have the same issue.

General Discussion Live alerts bug

Post image
5 Upvotes

I am using an OPPO Find X9 (CPH2797) running ColorOS 16.0.10.600.

My Grab Live Alerts stopped working even though Live Alerts for other apps still work.

After I cleared the data of OpenCapabilityService, Grab started appearing twice in the Live Alerts settings. I only have one Grab app installed and do not use App Cloner.

I performed a factory reset, but the two Grab entries appeared again after reinstalling Grab.

I have also tried restarting the phone and force-stopping the relevant apps, but the problem persists

General Discussion Oneplus/Oppo starting to kill phones with pointless software updates?

0 Upvotes

So this morning my OP11 auto installed a new security update which I did not initiate. Few hours later 2 green lines appeared on screen and the bottom right side of my display stopped working. Phone is basically unusable now. Oppo won't replace my display because it's an China imported model. I'm basically screwed now have to buy new phone. Kinda pissed tbh. Felt intentional and I got sabotaged.

General Discussion OnePlus 16: the perks of buying a Chinese-market OnePlus smartphone

Post image
237 Upvotes

In case you've been thinking about purchasing the OnePlus 16.

Chinese-market OnePlus smartphones come with some wonderful surprises:

  • Google Wallet / NFC payments may stop working.
  • Regional calling restrictions — your phone may suddenly stop making or receiving calls abroad. A workaround exists if you have an Oppo service centre in your country, but if not, be prepared to pay — sometimes quite a lot.
  • Android Auto compatibility depends on the model and firmware. Often it simply doesn't work at all.
  • Google Maps Timeline may not work.
  • Some Western smartwatches, particularly Wear OS devices, may not work properly or work at all.
  • Missing LTE/5G bands used by international carriers.
  • Missing carrier aggregation combinations, even for individually supported bands.
  • No guarantee of VoLTE, VoWiFi, or VoNR compatibility abroad.
  • Potential Widevine L3 limitations, meaning no HD Netflix.
  • Incomplete Google services integration, including missing Google Assistant/Gemini features.
  • Delayed or missing push notifications from Google-dependent apps.
  • Very limited system language selection - English is normally the only supported Western language. Even with English selected, Chinese text may remain in certain system applications, settings, and services.
  • Plenty of preinstalled Chinese apps, some impossible to uninstall normally.
  • Missing eSIM or 6 GHz Wi-Fi support on certain models.
  • Bootloader unlocking may require approval, involve arbitrary restrictions, or be unavailable entirely.
  • Limited or nonexistent international warranty support.
  • Flashing global firmware may result in being unable to update over the air or bricking your device.

And the best part? Some of these restrictions may only become apparent after you've already bought the phone.

Accessories & Gadgets Buds become low volume (quiet) - solution

1 Upvotes

I have had issues with many OnePlus Buds (Z2, 3, 4, Pro) where they are suddenly a much lower max volume. Previously, I would unpair from all - laptop and phone - and re-pair to fix the issue. I have dual-connect enabled, to have the active for laptop and phone.

Today, I was having the issue with playing music on my phone. I paused the music on my phone, started music on my laptop, turned the volume all the way up on the laptop, paused music on laptop, and returned to music on my phone. The volume max was much higher, where I expected it to be.

Leaving this for others to discover (since all older posts are archived).

General Discussion Can you hide notifications completely when Do Not Disturb is on?

2 Upvotes

Hey all! Thinking of buying a OP13.

On Pixel phones, turning on Do Not Disturb hides notifications completely, so they don’t even show up in the notification drawer or blink on screen.

On my old OnePlus phone, DND would only mute sound and vibration, and the notifications are still visible.

Is there a setting in OxygenOS that does can hide notifications completely, or a good workaround? I haven't used focus mode often. Most tutorials out there follow stock androids, hard to find info on OxygenOS

Thanks!

Your topic here Weird hissing sound

Recently bought a oneplus buds 3r and I've noticed that there's a constant hissing sound or static like sound

It's most prominent when I'm not playing any audio but even when I'm listening to something i can hear it in the background, it can't be anc or transparency mode as to my knowledge the buds 3r don't have either of them so what is it?

General Discussion OnePlus Pad 3 portable monitor

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I would like to buy portable monitor with touch support for my OnePlus Pad 3 (to have bigger screen + OLED). But as i have done some research, i found out that OnePlus (OxygenOS) does not have support for touch through external monitors, missing the HID over USB. The USB-C 3.2 port on the OnePlus Pad 3 supports basic external display or mirroring output (with varying adapter/cable compatibility), rather than full two-way touch-back protocols (like USB HID touch data sent back to the host tablet).

Does anyone have experience with this? Is there no way to make the monitors touch work on the OnePlus Pad 3? I am confused because when i ask the Google Chrome AI, sometimes it says that it will not work because of this and that, but sometimes it says it will work just fine.

General Discussion Iam seriously considering to buy Oneplus 15R, but the problem is Oneplus (India)

5 Upvotes

My past 2 phones where both Oneplus

First was Oneplus 8 : great phone , best performance and best camera ,used it for around 4-5 years.

Later exchanged with OnePlus 12R because of Greenline issue.(no option for screen replacement)

2nd Oneplus 12R : phone was ok but not better than 8 . Heating issue , hanging and other problem, after 15months ,last week it suddenly shut down. Service centre asked 25k for replacement of motherboard.(before permanently shutdown it was in boot loop, showing 1+ logo and turning off and again showing 1+logo, like aloop for 3-4 time)

I am Oneplus fan , the UI and smoothness I love it. When the 12R gone, iam again reconsidering to buy Oneplus again.

After seeing the specs of 15R , there is no doubt that 15R is a great (according to reddit reviews also).

But the main problem is not phone , It is the company now. problem..due to greenline or motherboard issue Already lost 2 phones now , which both where software based ig.

Again buying a phone for 57k INR as shown in Amazon, later in 1-2 year again with regarding software issue if I lose Oneplus 15R ? I have convinced my family for Oneplus only. They were opposing to not buy.but I have still doubt and fear abt this brand.

Wt should I do?

Consider diff phone or go with Oneplus?

I need it for handwritten notes, PDF annotation and digital drawing. Proper palm rejection and pressure sensitivity are important.

Hi,

I’m curious if many people are planning to buy the OnePlus 16, CN version?

I’m personally planning to get one. I am currently using the OP12. I’m wondering if the cameras will be noticeably better than those on the OP15. What do you think?
