ONEPLUS ONE PROBLEMS

What's wrong with the OnePlus One?

The OnePlus One is among the more interesting phones we’ve seen over the last year. At first it seems too good to be true.

It has a 1080p screen, the same processor as the Galaxy S5, a respectable camera and 4G, but costs less than half the price of the rivals from the bigger names. Are you going to get stung if you buy a OnePlus One?

Here are the issues that are worth thinking about before you get too excited.

It’s extremely hard to get hold ofyellow line

The OnePlus One has become the most-hyped phone ever to come from a phone maker that just about no normal people have heard of. At present it’s probably the hardest-to-get-hold-of phone there is.

Around the phone’s launch, OnePlus is running an invite system to ensure the company isn’t completely swamped by demand. Essentially it’s a way for OnePlus to turn that it can’t make enough phones into another cog in its anticipation-generation engine. You can only buy a phone if you have an invite.

In order to get an invite, you need to know someone who has already bought the phone. Each person who buys the phone gets a few invites to let them into the OnePlus club of folks who have the right to buy a mobile.

We’re sure people will try and sell invites online, but we don’t recommend getting in suckered into that. Instead, see if any of your friends have bought the phone, and have a look into the OnePlus forum to see if you get snag one. As a company with a fairly community-centric approach, it’s likely reams of invites will eventually be granted to active forum users.

There’s no microSD card slotyellow line

One of the most contentious decisions of the OnePlus One was to leave out a microSD card slot. This means you can’t easily expand memory unless you’re happy to rely on cloud services – which isn’t the same thing at all.

To make matters worse, early versions of the phone shipped with a manual that stated the phone has an microSD slot. It doesn’t.

Part of this is to make the 64GB version of the OnePlus One a valid buy – phones with microSD slots tend to only sell well in their lowest storage capacity. There is no real solution either, except to suggest that OnePlus One buyers seriously consider the 64GB version, rather than the entry-level 16GB one.

It doesn’t support Band 20 4G – this is a biggieyellow line

One of the most important issues with the OnePlus One for UK buyers is that it does not support band 20 4G. This is the band over which several of the UK’s networks transmit their 4G signal. And this means you cannot get 4G mobile internet with them.

The networks that use band 20 include O2, Vodafone, Tesco Mobile, LycaMobile and GiffGaff. Yes, you cannot get 4G on a OnePlus One with any of these networks in the UK.

That only really leaves EE and Three, and as Three uses band 20 for part of its signal, 4G speed may not be too hot on Three. These networks use Band 3 (EE/Three) and band 7 (EE), which are supported by the OnePlus One.

Other 4G bands supported by the OnePlus One include band 4 and band 17. But they’re not of much use here.

Once again there are no real solutions. This is a hardware issue, not something that can be solved with a software patch.

You can either be happy with a 3G connection or sign up to one of the 4G networks that doesn’t rely entirely on band 20. Decent SIM-only EE 4G plans start at £16.99, which gets you 1GB, maxing out at £22.99 for a 4GB a month plan.

Three’s 4G deals are much more attractive. Starting at £12.90 a month you can get an ‘all you can eat’ data plan, which has a fair use policy of 1000GB a month. There is some limiting of speed for tethering and file sharing between 3pm and 12am, but that’s hardly a serious trade-off given the price.


OnePlus One has no track record of supportyellow line

Another serious issue: who is OnePlus, exactly? There has been a lot of talk about how it is made of people from Oppo, another manufacturer, but that doesn’t mean the company will turn out to be as reliable or stable as Oppo, which itself is hardly a well-known company in the UK.

Why does this matter? Support. We currently have no idea about what lengths you’ll have to go to get a OnePlus One repaired should it fail within the first month, and we don’t even know if the company will be around in twelve months’ time should something go wrong later down the line while the phone is still under warranty.

OnePlus is under certain obligations by law, but that doesn’t mean it’ll necessarily follow them quickly or easily.

... and no track record with Android updatesyellow line

Almost as important as the warranty support, will OnePlus really keep on offering software support for the phone? It claims it will support the OnePlus One for two years, but at this point the claim is little more than clever marketing and (we hope) good intentions. One possible issue is that because the OnePlus One is likely to attract a rabid community of tech tinkerers, OnePlus may start to lean on unofficial software updates doing the job for it. This would be short-sighted, as while the most vocal One fans may appear happy - the people rejoicing as a new Android 6.5 ROM is released - the larger, more normal crowd may be most unhappy indeed.

This is the best reason why some of you prospective OnePlus One owners should think about waiting for Google to announce the Nexus 6, the rumoured next instalment of the Google own brand phone series. Either do that, or expect that you may have to get your hands dirty in order to keep up-to-date with the latest version of Android.


Is the OnePlus One too good to be true?

It seems OnePlus has done well with the One. While there are sure to be other niggles post-launch, the phone appears to be a good starting point for the young company. However, it is somewhat non-UK centric, and it shows.

Most of the UK’s 4G networks will not work with the phone, and that’s a major downer if you’re looking at the OnePlus One as a cheaper way to get on-board with everything that’s new and flashy in the mobile tech world.

Getting to know android -2

Last time I gave info till the android runtime which is like the most important part of your device
Today Im going to tell you'll about the application framework of the apps

Application (Software)Framework

Basically application framework is your apps you use such as whatsapp ,twitter,facebook so on and on...
 Application framework its like a room filled with different stuff.
The app interacts with the hardware directly through the kernel and the activity manager
Now when you want to call a person the first thing you do is click on the phone key that in turn starts the telephony manager which in turn searches for signal and then contacts the other person,
there are many Questions such as why Ram is used
Now ram is key part when ever an app  is started it keeps reading and writing in the ram
the ram is just like your memory card which stores  data in it and then the app reads from it when we exit the app the stored data is erased in the ram and then it writes again for a new app
NOTe-I would have written more but I have no time I but i will surely update it today

Getting to know android part-1

So lets begin with some tutorials um... lets see the basics  of android phone like what is what exactly.Cause I have seen many people misunderstanding things on their DRoid
so lets see  I can post some links .
So lets start 
To learn the basics of the Android 


This is the architecture of an android phone now I know that is just going over your head,so just keep reading

Lets see first we have to start from the bottom of that image
Lets get to the hard part before we learn about the easy part

KERNEL

So what exactly is a kernel,some say is the main part of android,some say its the heart of android,
Now I call it a bridge between the software of android(I mean the OS,you will learn about it down the tutorial)And the hardware.The hardware is the main thing its the skeleton of your phone it consists of cores,then your IC{Integerated circuit} etc.Now why do I call it a Bridge for the main reason say you want to shut down your  phone,you don't remove the battery and shut it right you use the power button now how does the power button power down your phone?...so basically a command is sent from the software to the hardware to shut down and same way to power it on .
Now unless your not interested in development you need not know in detail of the kernel...but its based on Linux the open development source
http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
You can refer to this for information on linux 
NOW examples of what a kernel can do
It starts the drivers in your phone  for example Wifi,sets your audio level,connects your camera to the camera app  etc etc.


Next is a libraries.What is a library?

OKAy library isn't  a ROOM full of BOOKS .IN Android it is something which helps the apps to adapt to the environment of the OS.
THE games you play need libraries without a library the app will not function well
the library is the framework like the foundation of a building it without it the apps will fail 
I know its a bit complex but there is nothing much i can do to make it simple I can say that to run a video you need a library file present 

WHAT  is virtual machine ?

A virtual machine is like a software implementation of a physical computer which works like real physical computer. It means a virtual machine can compile and run any program just like a physical computer does for us. In other words we can say it is a like a emulator compared to the real physical machine. But there is a dark-side of virtual machine as it is less efficient than real physical computer and provide unstable performance when multiple virtual machine exist on the same machine.

ANDROID RUNTIME

This has two subdivisions 1.Dalvik vm... 2.ART{ANDROID RUNTIME }

DALVIK

Dalvik is the process virtual machine (VM) in Google's Android operating system. It is the software that runs the applications on Android devices. Dalvik is thus an integral part of Android, which is typically used on mobile devices such as mobile phones and tablet computers as well as more recently on embedded devices such as smart TVs and media streamers.

ART

ART is a new Android runtime being introduced experimentally in the 4.4 release. This is a preview of work in progress in KitKat that can be turned on in Settings > developer options. This is available for the purpose of obtaining early developer and partner feedback.

FEATURES OF ART

Ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation

ART introduces ahead-of-time (AOT) compilation, which can improve app performance. ART also has tighter install-time verification than Dalvik.
At install time, ART compiles apps using the on-device dex2oat tool. This utility accepts DEX files as input and generates a compiled app executable for the target device. The utility should be able to compile all valid DEX files without difficulty. However, some post-processing tools produce invalid files that may be tolerated by Dalvik but cannot be compiled by ART.
OKAY I Will write soon for now read this tutorial the next one will be up soon cheers 
DO comment on how the tutorial is.
