Cyanogen clarified again that Indian users who bought the OPO from outside India will get the update, however Indian users who bought the handset from India i.e. devices sold directly in India will not receive the update.
Well bad news, good news, and bad news again. The OnePlus One devices sold in India will not get the Cyanogen update. Cyanogen had earlier mentioned via a post that “OTA updates will be rolled out on global devices including global devices for users in India”, note the word Global Devices.
The latest post on their website now clarified that regional devices sold directly in India are not Global devices and will not get the update. They are committed with partnership with Micromax and will be moving forward with the YU brand. This means that the OPO in India is not the Global version. If you have bought the OPO from the OnePlus.net website you will get the OTA updates.
Your take on this?
One Plus One Invite system is waste….this company is fraud and trying to fool people with 1000 pieces of phone in India with a population of 100 crores.
I think we should not be messed up with the relationship oneplus, CM & micromax instead as customers of oneplus we have the right over oneplus and amazon to get CM with updates as advertised or shown to us at the time of buying. So all the owner of India amazon handsets to go to the consumer court collectively and get our right from oneplus and amazon.
One Plus One = Fraud
kya indian version one plus one me lollipop update ayega.please conforme gogi.
Seriously OnePlus why are you behaving like this, you are only creating more MIUI fans, i havent used CM but MIUI is still great !!!!
atleast Xiaomi have 50K phones to sell….not mere 1000 pieces to sell in India
Ye sara game hamare bharat mahan ke Micromax ka hai. Mmx ne cyanogen k sath partnership kiya hai to usi ne bola hoga cm team se ki wo opo ko apna support na de india me nahi to mmx ke cyanogen wale phon km hi bikenge india me.ab cyanogen opo ko support nahi dega india me to sab koi yu phon lega mmx ka …ye sara game micromax ka hai. :-@
The new oneplus os will lag in future
Waiting for YU.Using Micromax A120 and A1. Micromax Rocks…………
what about the earlier thought being ‘customer centric’……ye cyanogen waale toh software world ke rahul gandhi nikle :p
😀 😀 😀
Hi Gogi, so only OTA is not supported for the Indian version but still I can download the updates from the Cyanogen website and flash it manually right?.. Please confirm.
This is Focal all over again. God CM turning Inc F**ED it up….
Hate being part of the community now
Gaya, Ab toh Gaya, Ab toh definitely gaya.. Even people are complaining about the yellow tint on der device its like someone again choose India as a dumping ground..
I think Cyanogen is taken huge risk…to collaborate with micromax….if os made my cyanogen….but what about build quality…. And i know how is micromax in build!!!!there phones are full dust friendly…….. Ha ha ha..keep going cyanogen
to hell with cyanogen…why are they playing with indian customers….?and by the way,if anyone buys a OPO for cyanogen,then he will know for surely how to flash the ROM anytime available for global versions…
Cmon, why can’t anyone put the global Stock rom after buying it regionally? That shud solve all d problem to everyone..
Kabhi haan Kabhi Naa… 🙁
CM now act like larger than android OS.
Apparently , i believe this to be a marketing gimmick by OPO . phone directly sold in India are cheaper than OPO attained from outside India. is this a way to compel buyers to buy the device from outisde India. The flgship killer seems to be trying a marekting strategy similar to Xiaomi but marketing in the end can only give you flashsales . if you wish to survive in an over-demanding market like India you better come clean with the consumers
That is stupid.
The devices sold outside India are cheaper than Indian version. Buying it from outside will decrease its profit. Not increase.
the reason it will be costlier is due to shipping charges, import tax and etc. that is not handled by OnePlus One.
They don’t stand to gain anything.
Nope.. Cyanogen decided to make extra money with Micromax.. That is all there is to the story..
Well definitely a bad news. They shouldn’t released the Indian version.
What the heck OnePlus you guys are again messing with Indian buyers. CM has again taken a big U Turn and indeed confirmed that Indian version that are sold via amazon Indian website,won’t get any updates because of their exclusive partnership with MICROMAX, whereas global devices bought via PPO BOX in India will still recieve CM Updates. So,final conclusion it is a big game played by ONEPLUS TEAM,in order to use us as their beta tester’s for their upcoming stupid OS.
I won’t ever deal with such a company with such criminal attitude,so stay away my fellow INDIAN Friend’s from their big master plan!
@Gogi: What’s your take on this?
Without Cyanogen it makes no sense, unless Oneplus comes up with their own OS. If users are okay without the update then no issues, I think OnePlus will come with something for Indian users. It would be better to look for something else in such a scenario.
I am very Sry,gogi I reposted the same comment by removing the words ‘heck’ & ‘amazon india website’ because I thought that’s is why comment has not been posted.Sry for misunderstandin.Anyway,thanks for your reply!
@Gogi: Yes,you’re right. With CM,OPO is nothing where they have many other big issues like hardware problems. Without CM Support,OPO will inturn have less sales in India. Yes,stable version of their own OS will be released for Indian users by Feb 2015, whereas developer version will be released by this Dec end. But,I personally think that their OS will exactly be like Colour OS with some changes. Anyway,they wanted some one to beta test their own new OS,now they have successfully got hold of us. I really feel pity for my Indians!
I don’t think that it will be like Color OS bcz they have already declared that google has already done hard work, we won’t be change it but will add features.
And it will be sure better than Xiaomi’s buggy Miui.
Design wise OPO is just a copied version of OPPO FIND 7.That’s what makes me think they will again copy OPPO’S own colour OS,as they are owned by OPPO’S Share holder’s!
One Plus has already said the new OS will be based on Stock android.. Not Color OS. Stop spreading rumors..
@The New Guy:Oh,you’re supporting OPO.Then,can u explain why OPO still hasn’t sued CM for their betrayal?Oneplus Team always hav great capacity to cook up new stories and make them believe us.You can observe it only when u followed these freaks right from their start of this stupid company!
Lolz,Oneplus Team blocked me in their fb page as many responded to my same above mentioned comment & even deleted my comment!
I wonder,why OnePlus Team didn’t sue CM for making their exclusive partnership with Micromax without any prior notice?This just shows that it’s clearly their master plan!
Hey. OnePlus said that cyanogenmod won’t support their devices in India. They never changed that.
Cyanogen with their statements confused everybody. And why is it you think only Oneplus is behind this.
Why cant it be Micromax.
They made cyanogenmod sign an exclusive deal allowing only micromax devices to have cyanogenmod support.
Isn’t it Micromax’s way of killing its competitor OnePlus from beating its Yu phone.
Won’t Micromax gain more sales.
Now that cyanogenmod is not supported. Most of the people will buy Micromax Yu phone.
So who is gaining?
@Shreyank: Lolz,it’s very said to see you guys still believing Oneplus team. If u have followed them from their start,you could just understand they will just make fake promises and ‘would never ever’ keep up their promises! I have been following them right from their start, so it’s clearly a masterplan made by Oneplus. Then,why didn’t Oneplus sue CM for this betrayal?Can you explain this?
Err.. “Sue for betrayal”?? Do you live in a fantasy world?? If Cyanogen fails to give updates to the countries where One Plus originally launched (does not include India) then they would be breaking the contract..
Cyanogen went and signed an exclusivity contract with Micromax behind One Plus’ back knowing completely well that One Plus planned to release in India (They had announced it months ago..)
Going by your definition.. Cyanogen Inc. is the one with “criminal attitude”.. Get out of your delusional fantasy world..
@The New Guy: Then how come,they perfectly launched OPO in India without Cyanogen Mod logo on the back?As Oneplus knew about the CM-MICROMAX only two days before their official launch?How in the heck the customs office cleared 20k units without CM Logo with in two days?All this was preplanned,they just want to use us this as beta testers for their upcoming new stupid OS,this is the main reason they launched in our Indian market.I am following this stupid company right from their start,I know what they are.Better get your facts right & I am not here living in a fantasy world!
@Madhan Kumar,
You are not very good at following then.. The units being shipped by amazon as of now have Cyanogenmod installed AND have the “cyanogen logo” at the back (check any unboxing in past two days). They aren’t special versions for Inida. Just Cyanogen won’t push updates to them.
So your customs theory is menaingless.. If you are going to come up with conspiracy theories atleast get the facts right..
(in reply to your comment a bit above)
As I have already answered you DO NOT sue someone just cos you didn’t like what they did. One Plus didn’t have a contract with regards to Inida (or anyplace they haven’t launched yet) so there was no breach of contract. So in REAL world there is no point in suing them. Plain and simple.
@The New guy: Oh,I see I didn’t notice youtube videos but I saw Oneplus india forums where a person created a thread that Indian versions don’t have CM Logo.That’s why I doubted Oneplus team.Anyhow,there is something going on between CM and Oneplus,which Oneplus is not clearly explaining about this matter.Insead they are simply saying they itself can’t understand CM’S Policy,how can we this be acceptd as an legitimate answer?
They know very well CMs has done.. What they said was the don’t understand “why” CM had to go and sign an exclusivity deal.. There is nothing One Plus can do about it..
Yes I don’t deny One Plus has messed up quite a bit in the past.. But this No OTA thing is just on CM Inc (But they are a business at the end of the day.. They have to do what brings the money it to pay their bills)
Yes it is a mess which “maybe” One Plus could have prevented by making conditions in their contract earlier but all I’m saying is I don’t think One Plus has done it intentionally..
@The New Guy:Ok,bro let’s see what our Indian OPO G.M will post regarding about this big issue in their weekly update!
This s*cks
Sucks…. I thought both were the same. CM you have upsetted a lot of people.
