Received the phone, pretty disappointed...



Hey there.

Just received my Oneplus 2 yesterday pretty happy overall but having some issues with couple things.

First, I travel a lot so I use Fly Delta app quite a bit. For some odd reason this application will not open on my Oneplus 2. Anyone have the same problem?

Second, my wifi download speeds are pretty terrible. I get about 1/5th of the available speed. I did a side by side speed with Oneplus 2, ZTE Axon and S6. Oneplus always gets around 9-10mbps as opposed to the other phones (they get ~50mbps)

Last but not least I find OnePlus quite a bit slow compared to ZTE Axon (which has the same exact hardware) and way slower than my S6. Apps open a lot slower, information takes a lot longer to load, browsing is laggy. At this point, I am pretty disappointed and the phone is not living up to its hype Oneplus makes is out to be.

Anyone else having the same issues mentioned above? Any help will be greatly appreciated, if anyone knows how to fix any of the issues mentioned above.

Pretty sure I should root, but should I switch from TouchWiz?



I just got a Rogers Note 4 in Canada and spent the past few days customizing things to my liking. I am a minimalist and using Nova, ZUI Locker and Whicons (and a new Dialer) I have everything looking great. The only thing I can't stand is the Notification bar pull down thing. I can't change anything about it without rooting and it's insanely ugly. I'd also like to change the status bar. So, I should probably root and use Xposed (I think?) to change that to my liking. I'm a very aesthetically driven person and rooting just to change that fugly bar is enough reason for me.

But on the subject of switching from TW, I'm not really sure what to do. My last phone was a 5 year old Windows 7 phone so this one has been a dream so far. It feels snappy, I don't notice any lag, and there isn't a lot of bloatware that I can see. Some S stuff I'll probably never use, but storage out of the box was only a few GB (sits at 6GB atm with some large games installed) and RAM usage after a boot is around 60%.

Anyway with all these things considered, should I bother changing ROMs? I know people hate TW, but other than the Notification/Status bar being unchangeable, I can't really find any issues. Just looking for some thoughts from the experts.
