Damnit just realized I have to replace all my cables.
What's the best place to get legit on-spec USB-C cables for reasonable price? Monoprice? Anker on Amazon?

Anker on Amazon is where I got my cables from. Super thick and beefy USB-C cables... maybe too beefy.

Amazon has been good to me. I bought a Belkin cable as well as an Anker, but like roastpuff, I felt that the Anker cables are too beefy and don't offer enough flex when plugging in to odd ball locations.

Amazon as well.
But I've been sporting a usb-c cable from Miniso for the past few months as my car charger cable. It's been very effective for like $5 bucks.

Just picked up my 5T (128GB) a few days ago. 3 days delivery since order on Sunday, was expecting to come in next Monday (creds to 1+ & DHL). So far I'm quite impressed, especially by face-unlock speed. I was previously using the 1+X, which is still rocking solid for a 2yr old device. How are the rest of you guys who picked one up finding yours.

Got it shipped on Tuesday and delivered Wednesday, pretty quick. Finally got time yesterday to set it up, and really have no complaints. Coming from the original OPO, it's quite the improvement on speed, screen quality, and convenience of fingerprint scanner. Did not enable face lock.
Not the biggest fan of the OP launcher, using Nova currently.

So I've been happily using my OnePlus One, still on KitKat 4.4.4
and Cyanogen 11.0 (Why fix what wasn't broken...)
I'm long overdue for an update, but I'm not even sure where to begin.
I thought it would be something simple like pressing on a system update in the "About Phone" settings.
The step by step tutorials online seem over complicated and I'm not even sure if this is the "proper" method or some quick unstable method for the impatient that's trying to get updates earlier than official releases.
When I first got my phone way back, I root my phone and was playing around and nearly bricked it 2 weeks in, lol. Would be nice to not to do anything risky again...
Any help?

^ I still have my OPO, I have it as a spare phone.
I was multiple versions behind from not using the phone for a long time. Ended up factory resetting and then just doing all the OTA updates that showed up in the About Phone > System Updates area.
I am currently on Android 6.0.1 and Cyanogen 13.1.
I think there is an Oxygen build for the OPO also.

Are they two completely separate things or do they function together as one?
I know Android's the OS, but is Cyanogen another OS?
How did you "just do all the OTA updates" ? Did they automatically appear after you factory reset?
Damn... I feel old now. Used to love tinkering with this stuff but now I don't got the time and just need this to be simple and work. lol...

cyanogen is now called lineage OS.
Right now their latest version 14.1 which is a Android 7.1.2. Very smooth, stable and battery saving. If you have Cyanogen mod, you should go definitely upgrade to Lineage.

Where do I get the files and how to begin? lol
Is there a step by step site I can follow?
Some of these sites I found seem to be out dated now

Try going to About Phone > System Updates > Check for Updates. That was how I got my updates on my OPO.
And see if it brings up anything. This route will might give you Android 6.0.1 and Cyanogen 13.1. Android 6.0.1 being the OS, and Cyanogen 13.1 being kind of like the "skin" applied over the OS.
Lineage did replace Cyanogen, so if you want to go that route, check out xda forums for instructions or possible the oneplus forums as well.

Screenprotector the one that it comes with stock, and got the sandstone case.
I also bought the glass one but won't install it until the stock screen protector gets scratched or messed up.

just upgrade to the 8gb 5T from my opo lol. Pretty awesome so far, got the full karbon case. Awesome looking combo. Was going to get the red 5t since they have it in china but it looks ugly with the karbon case so went with the black one. Man the original opo was a beast, lasted me 5 years. Great phone. Looking forward to another 5 years with the 5t lol.

I fail to see the problem.
was bored enough to yahoo their release history.
Oneplus One 2014
Oneplus 2 2015
Oneplus 3 2016
Oneplus 5 2017
Oneplus 6 coming this year. And probably 4-6 months after that is released they'll update it with the Oneplus 6+.
I feel like I'm the only one that sees them updating their phones as a good thing. For example, say I'm in the market for a new phone, I'd personally like to have the phone I get be recently refreshed rather than refreshed 11 months ago. And I don't care to replace my phone each time a new one is released. I don't buy a new car every year, I don't buy a new house every year, I don't buy a new TV every year, etc.

Just got a new software update one my one plus 3 and now I have face unlock! That's a phone that was released 2 years ago. Good to see a phone maker still supporting there older phones.

Have you tried it yet? I got the update notification earlier today too, read through the changelog and was surprised at the new features. I thought I read that they were stopping support for the older phones, except necessary security updates.
