  1. I flashed BlissPop and I'm loving it. Only problem is that MS Office Mobile and Amazon Shopping aren't updated to support 5.1.1, but I can live without them.
  2. I cleared everything but my internal storage. I'll probably flash a CM12.1 nightly (required for BlissPop 5.1 to work anyway), see how I like that, and if I feel I want the extra BlissPop features (I really like DPI changer, for example) I'll flash that later. Apparently CM12.1 makes the OPO like a whole new phone...
  3. 1399 Malaysian Ringgits = ~$385USD, or about the current MSRP of a GTX 970 in the US.
  4. Trusted Face (née Face Unlock) is a stock feature of every Android device I've ever used, including my friend's Motorola craphone running 4.2, two Galaxy S4's and an S3 of people I know (Samsung also makes you speak a phrase), an LG Pulse running 4.4, an even OLDER Motorola Craphone running 4.1/2 (can't remember) and my OPO with CM11S.
  5. So, I flashed OxygenOS last week, then got fed up with how it's missing some features that even the Nexus 6 has (like Trusted Face). I reverted back to CM12S today, but I've had more app crashes and visual glitches in the last half an hour than I did in my entire week with Oxygen (sadly, this is normal to CM, at least in my experience). I'm new to the whole ROM thing, but I'm confident in my ability to flash them. I'm looking for a highly customizable but smooth and stable Lollipop ROM. (preferably 5.1, but 5.0.2 is good too) Is there one? I'm looking at Blisspop, is that any good?
  6. Don't read comics Hardly ever watch videos on anything but my 16:9 monitor, plus 16:10 still has letterboxing. I find a lot of sites that I read are wide (e.g. the Verge, Ars, Engadget, Android Central) 4:3 is more immersive for games IMO. Mine too. The aspect ratio is the only thing I really like about my iPad.
  7. Wait, 30 days is normal battery life for a regular watch? I'm sticking with my Cognac Moto 360, thank you very much. I care about every sensor in my Moto 360. I bought it to do 3 things: 1) regular watch stuff (tell time, set timers, alarms, look nice) 2) sync with my phone (notifications, voice stuff, navigation, calls/texts etc) 3) track my fitness (heart rate, steps etc) I didn't get the Sony Smartwatch 3 because it doesn't have a freaking heart rate sensor in a sport watch. (well, and it's downright ugly, too big, doesn't have Gorilla Glass 3 and was $250 rather than the $179 that I got my Moto 360 for) Also, the Galaxy Gear is the only smartwatch to ever have a camera. Please read up on modern smartwatches before bashing.

    Oneplus Lite

    I have my fingers crossed that there will be some kind of upgrade program for previous OPO owners. (i.e. pay the difference for the new model, if the 2 is $400 and you have the $350 OPO, you give them your OPO and $50 and get a OPT)
  9. I hate widescreen. Though 3:2 is preferable to 4:3, I'd take 4:3 over 16:X anyday. Although, 90% of my media consumption is reading, whether it's in Chrome, Flipboard or Google Play Books/Kindle/Nook. 3:2 would be better for reading landscape National Geographic in Google Play Books, but the only 3:2 tablets I can find are the Surfaces.
  10. PLEASE tell me you were trying to say "generally". On topic, oh gosh, not another reason to get the Nexus 9 I really want but REALLY don't need or have money for...
  11. The 360 tells time, monitors heart rate and steps (Moto Body) without an Android phone. BUT you need an Android phone to set it up in the first place.
  12. I believe that this is the first time in my life something on the Internet has made my jaw literally drop. ARE YOU KIDDING ME. It seems you can't even STAND UP FOR PEOPLE who are being VERBALLY ASSAULTED anymore without being racist.
  13. A www.androidcentral.com Google Chrome, I read a lot of mobile technology articles.
  14. Hitler was influential too, that doesn't mean he was good. I'm not likening someone who takes something usually good (feminism/equal rights) WAAAAAAAAAAY to far to a man who murdered millions of innocents, I'm just trying to say that "influential" is not a synonym for "good". Another thought: you people freaking out about this is what makes her MORE influential- she's influencing your right now. Another thought: So someone you don't agree with being put on a completely arbitrary list in a magazine 99% of this forum (including myself, I'm a Nat Geo type of guy) doesn't regularly read makes you lose faith in humanity as a whole? That seems to me rather narrow minded. I mean, Kanye is on that list, so you know there's no credibility there.
  15. I'll have to try those out next time I need a new keyboard. I mostly use word processors, but as a veteran touchscreen typer (I used an iPad as my main computer for 2 years, not fun) I find the blues take a bit more force than I'm used to to press down.
  16. Yeah, but the red backlit K70 was cheaper than the RGB K65, and I wanted Blue switches. Are Red any good? (not that I'm buying a new keyboard at this point)
  17. So wait, these just plug into a PCI slot? I have one I'll never use, BRB to do research on these things... NVM.
  18. If I could change one thing about the K70, I would make it tenkeyless. (I would have also bought the Cherry MX Browns, but that was my fault, not the keyboard's)
  19. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL Pretty much the only source less trustworthy than Wikipedia. On topic: This is what happens when the tech muggles think they know things about hacking.
  20. Wait, people using PCs other than tablets use the lockscreen? I just disabled it and the login page so it just boots to the Start screen.
  21. One in the basement so the Apple TV can have Ethernet, one in my bedroom so I can have Gigabit/stronger Wi-Fi. The one in my bedroom used to be our old main router until we got an 802.11ac unit. I'll reset them later and respond with the results.
  22. I restarted the one my PC's Ethernet is plugged into, is is necessary to restart the other one? Do you think it could be a bandwidth thing? IIRC, Comcast allows 250GB of data a month, and I could see my family of four burning through that fairly easily.
  23. Starting yesterday, my internet (usually ~20ms ping, 30Mbps down 12 Mbps up, Comcast) has dropped down to 600-2,000ms ping (not a typo), 0.65Mbps down and 0.15Mbps up for every device on the network. It's never done this before, and it goes back up to its usual speed if I take my PC off the network. Within 30 seconds of bringing my PC back onto my network, it slows down again. It doesn't matter if my PC is using 802.11ac or Ethernet, it always slows down. HELP! EDIT: It's not malware, I checked.
  24. Homeschool FTW. :3 *coughNSAcough* Oh my gosh, this is an incredibly great point I never thought of. We could basically borrow and borrow forever and if they ever tried to get the money back their entire economy would collapse! Makes you wonder if politicians knew this when they started borrowing from China. I don't like the opinion that the US should be the world's police. I think we should let China work out their own problems, we shouldn't force our system down their throats or down the throats of any other country.
  25. OPPO is a huge, high-quality brand in China. The OPO is basically the OPPO Find 5 with CyanogenMod 12S on it and a different logo. Anyway, why would you care about the brand if the product is great? If all anyone ever cared about was the brand, no new companies could be born.
