OnePlus is doomed from last 6 months.

I made a thread about this long time ago. These companies intentionally do this with ota updates it seems to midrange phones. Since everything is closed source plus considering our laws they always get away with this.

Moral of the story after reading all comments. After 2 yrs, dont update ur smartphone to avoid such issues as company are doing this deliberately to purchase new ones..!

I follow these golden rules if helps

Try to procure directly from company website

Disable automatic software updates if oow

Don't fix what is not broken

try to buy extended warranty for 3 years if possible .

Companies deliberately hndicap good midrange  phones with software updat after 2 years , even apple does it, its a bitter pill but swallow it.

Information for everyone about android phones. I have Lyf wind 4S which has software that came with box never updated phone. Only battery swelled up & no issues till date. Redmi3s prime stock software- No issue till date, just battery changed 2 times. Redmi note5 pro stock software- no issue till i mistakely updated. Once i upgraded note5pro & wifi issue started and when I revert back to stock version by flashing then WiFi worked fine again. Samsung F14 stock software- no issues. I have blocked software updates in my Samsung phones by adb command. Once i rooted an android phone by root methods found in youtube & by installing root explorer i noticed that when we update any app from playstore the new incremental update apk file saved along with previously saved old apk file in phone memory which use more space. This slows down phone over repeated updates. That's why iPhone never give frequent updates of software. Apple don't want user phone to get slow by these stupid useless updates unless major issue need to be fixed. I recommend whenever u want update just flash the new version full software by USB flashing method. In that way old OS files remnants will not slow down phone performance. Before that backup images, contact.xml, sms & call history backup by softwares. Why people update software i don't understand, kaunsa kidaa kaat raha tum logo ko update karne ko kya zarurat hai update ki ? Why ur brain not evolved by time I don't understand. Never update any app, just clear data & uninstall it. Restart phone & fresh install new version from playstore. Phone software ko kabhi update mat karna dekhoge phone kabhi kharab nahi hoga. Never charge phone if battery heating high, avoid fast chargers. This will dry the dye used in CPU manufacturing, thermal conduction gradually lowers & phone will perform slow

I too don't understand why people get crazy when they hear about new software updates. As if bhandara chal raha ho aur waha khaane ke liye line me khade hai, fir khaane ke baad pet kharab ho gaya. They know very well that it can reduce their device performance significantly. Throughout my smartphone journey I was lucky to own smartphone which hardly received any updates. I had Sony, Asus, Realme and motorola(now). All were either late to the update party or were absent.

My phone is not even 2 yrs old. Any chances Samsung will fix the issue of pinkline? If they wont.. isnt it better if I buy their 5K warranty pack and then go to them?? I will get free screen replacement right at cheaper cost than 20K etc right?

If anyone can provide inputs.. will be great

Software upgrades of phones are not the only thing causing problems. Windows 11 in some devices especially laptops does that. Mostly focused on dead battery dead or partially working keyboard etc. And damage can't be reversed. Apple ipad   pro M4 latest update made many devices brick.

I've iphone 14 plus on beta IOS so I get updates almost every month and major ones every quarter. Never faced this issue. 🤦‍♂️

Stupid Androids can't even design updates properly in 2024

I read at few places that this is happening in Indian OnePlus mobile mostly!!

That means poor quality parts are being put by OnePlus in Indian units! That is very disappointing.

Thanks to cost cutting OLED budget display.

Look at the software update horror stories here: https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/gadgets-computer...

I did a firmware update of my perfectly good OnePlus Nord buds to get extra features like "reduced latency in games", "find earbuds function"... and now they started glitching while playing music! I was forced to buy new earbuds again.

Planned obsolescence - these companies are deliberately degrading devices with faulty updates to make users upgrade sooner!

Those who flash custom ROMs know this.

Dirty flash and clean flash.

Even devs recommend to clean flash to avoid bugs after dirty flashing.

But normal user never hard reset or factory reset device before flashing OS updates.

Reportedly back in September Samsung had again allowed free replacement of display (plus battery as a bonus) in case of line in display issue.
