Oh I left the cover off so the curved glass could make scrolling attempts just zoom out instead, or go-back in the browser to previous tabs, or just do some random operation because 3 things are being touched. 😂

 

Some phone gears make so we could use the side for just one gimmick. But yeh, imagine scrolling without covering content costing 600 more, right? I seriously do not feel like this is an 800 dollar phone at all. It's not even as nice as my Sony Z1, Z3-5 all those phones felt better than this until tmo broke all their connectivity to sell sam-songs over priced stuff.

 

With laptop specs I expect apps to just run smoother and instantly. This isn't it. The 300 dollar LG I have runs smoother on wifi... It's a wreck innit?

I switched mine back to OnePlus 7T. Slightly smaller but now that it’s unlocked bootloader wise, I can do whatever I want with it. Plus I always hated this stupid curved glass that does nothing once you put a screen protector.

 

T-Mo really dropped a ball on this one. I miss the good ‘ol days when Sprint SERO was $30/month and upgrade was super cheap 😅

Same problems here with my 9pro.

Did the resets and it only fixes it for a while.

The safe mode, rollback, and disabling of features is not a fix. I wish the Sony phones, and LG and moto for that matter, were actually compatible with our network again. Tmo and sandsun are starting to look like a problem for choice and competition in the marketplace no? They change things too often and effectively break our 800 dollar equipment like it's no big deal. I don't like having to roll back or not get updates to my OS.

C. 18 update has massive bugs with display. If I play hdr video it breaks my fingerprint, and puts display to 100% brightness can't change it, flickering, stuttering. Very scary to see almost looks like hardware issue but only appeared after update. This can't be good for the display!! 

 

Yep.

I created my own thread but the only way I’ve found to fix this issue is wipe to factory default BUT you cannot enable fingerprint or any biometrics. Only pins.

So since I’ve had enough, I finally was able to figure out a way to get the unlock PIN to request OnePlus to send me the unlock code so I can just void the warranty (which is a joke anyway) and upload my own custom ROM.

Also having this issue. Phone will go to maximum brightness until I restart my phone, user input has no control. Phone will lag horribly and sometimes certain parts(or entirely, when trying to enter lock screen password [no fingerprint], which happens way more often) of the screen will turn black and user input is still received. When recording screen of these issues, it does not get registered when look at the videos again. It's horribly often. It often makes the phone unusable until I restart it.

 

Edit: Area for fingerprint is whited out. A pure white circle with no animation.

 

This is 100% the issues I have been experiencing as well. Unusable is accurate description 👌

The plus side of factory reset is, it seems to run smoother other than utter incompetence by T-Mobile to acknowledge and give us any information on future updates.

I wrote a discussion earlier but you have to go without fingerprint and face lock/unlock unfortunately. This is AFTER wiping the phone to factory setting and it was still causing issues so once the biometrics were disabled and disabled most apps I don’t use, things are back to normal for now. You’ll just have to unlock with the pin pad if you want to keep your phone locked.

has anyone tried booting the phone into safe mode to see if things level out or not? and i cant remember if it was mentioned by anyone..but has anyone attempted a FR to see if it fixes the issues or if they continue?

Also having this exact issue. I've figured out how to work around the brightness issue by leaving my phone locked until it corrects itself but it still does it constantly and all that helps is me not having to restart my phone every 20 minutes. Sometimes I cannot even unlock my phone and it has been a major issue recently when I've needed my gps and my phone was so bugged it wasn't opening.

Some update ran a couple weeks ago on  my OnePlus Nord, now the alarm clock works one time out of 10, I can no longer find a way to do a USB file transfer from my PC to the phone (“usb preferences” no longer exists). Congratulations, this update really HOSED us. Congratulations to the QA that let this trainwreck of a so-called update get out to customers. LAME. FIX IT!!!!!

Okay so everyone is having the same issues but has T-Mobile responded or given a solution seeing that it was a forced update to which an option wasn't given??

no one in here to either acknowledge nor respond to something like this...the site is primarily peer to peer assistance only with a handful of admins and moderators to keep the site in order only...

Having all the same issues, would be great if they would respond or acknowledge it at All.

Hardware version: 22

Software version: LE2127_11_C.18

Baseband version: Q_V1_P14

Kernel: 5.4.147-qgki-gaa2b12955fb7

 

1) Fingerprint stopped working. They did a like bootloader restart and I was able to setup again, but then it stopped working once more. Fingerprint area is all white, and knows my finger is there but can't/doesn't read it. 

2) Screen flickers off and on occasionally.

3) Brightness adjusts randomly but is often locked at 100%.

4) Can't watch full screen videos on Netflix or YouTube, it's just black or flickers.

5) Refresh rate drops, or it is slowing down, can't tell which. Chrome, app drawer, telegram, photos, all have this issue that I know of. But may not be limited to certain apps.

How the hell does something this rickety pass through QA and into a forced upgrade??

My fingerprint sensor is completely borked. Tried deleting it and re-adding it it's just a white oval and no amount of pressing it for any amount of time works.

I don't want to have to roll back and wipe my device! Absurd 

EDIT:

After another reboot I'm now able to set my fingerprint again. Thankfully

After the forced update to LE2117_11_C.18 over the weekend, I have experienced much of the listed issues. my fingerprint scanner no longer works, I experience random reboots, most of the time my screen crawls or stops responding all together, and I can no longer adjust screen brightness (its stuck at maximum brightness). Such a shame to happen to a Overplus phone, I've been a user since the Overplus 5 and would had never though such bad quality control would befall a once user centric company.

All issues present in all versions of the Android 12 firmware for all OnePlus devices.  The code base merger with Oppo that will be abandoned with Android 13 will be the fix.  Until then, use the MSM Tool to rollback to Android 11 and disable automatic updates.  It will wipe your device!  There is a  rollback package that will also wipe your device, but it is much less reliable for some reason so using the MSM Tool will achieve the cleanest out of the box experience.

My fingerprint reader breaks occasionally now also after the update. Refresh rate drops to sub 10fps randomly. Screen brightness also broken, a lot of time at either max, or minimum brightness with no response from the brightness slider. I will not be getting my next OnePlus through T-Mobile, that is if I go with OnePlus at all in the future.

I have the Oneplus 9 and after my last update that ran yesterday to version LE2117_11_C.18 my android auto wireless stopped working and then I could not get it working by full (car stereo refresh to stock) full android auto uninstall reinstall resync attempt.  I had been using it fine for months and now it will not respond at all.  

I too have experienced the screen brightness going crazy.  I usually turn off auto brightness control as this phone doesn’t seem to understand how to use it.

I have also had it turn off the auto rotate function on its own randomly which is amazingly frustrating.

My fingerprint reader was pretty stable but it recently started going nuts.  I hadn’t considered it may be related to said update.
