The '2014 Flagship Killer' smartphone, OnePlus One, has been noted to be
affected by a touchscreen issue that is said to cause an unresponsive
display.
Now, the company is rolling out an OTA (over-the-air)
update dubbed CM 11S 33R for the One smartphone, updating the build
number to XNPH33R. OnePlus says the update provides critical security
updates and fixes some known issues, while websites are reporting it
also brings fixes for the above-outlined touchscreen issue.
The
OnePlus forum post details the new update as, "CM 11S 33R OTA is starting to roll out as
we speak, and we expect full deployment by the end of next week. This
maintenance release provides critical security updates and fixes some
known issues."
Android Police has listed the changelog of the
latest OTA update for the One smartphone which brings a new radio image;
touchscreen fixes; less power consumption while unused; some audio
fixes, and unspecified security update.
However, Android Police
further notes
that the latest OTA update for the One does not fix the touchscreen
problem completely.
One of the company's forum threads even
details the touchscreen issues like grounding problem, which causes the
display to act unresponsive when the One is placed on a surface. A user
named Cristiano has also posted a video of this issue.
Another
user named Nathan Hohsfield has posted a YouTube video showing that the
handset still has touchscreen issues after the CM 11S 33R OTA update
was installed
There
is no word from the company whether another update to fix the grounding
problem will be released for the OnePlus One smartphone.
It's
worth mentioning that the company released a custom CyanogenMod firmware update for the One that also brought
the Android 4.4.4 KitKat OS earlier this month.
OnePlus, after
revealing its intentions for the Indian market last month, this week put up a job listing for
the designation of "General Manager - India, Operations," seeking a
local visionary to lead the team in India.
