Now this is Part 3:
The endless touchscreen issues on my OnePlus One phone. I get "ghost swipes" which manifests itself when typing. The keyboard detects you sliding your singer instead of two distinct presses so it ignores letters. It seems to be heat related. First OnePlus send me a "fix" which was CM11S 44R but that didn't help. So they sent another "fix" which appears to be CM11S 38R. Keep in mind I started really having this issued on the final revision of CM11S which I think was 50Q or something like that ... and then I got the CM12S update and it was just as bad. I had to stop using the phone because it was getting so frustrating to type sometimes. 

After installing 38R as seen here, the phone does the ghost swypes but doesn't seem to be affected by temperature anymore. That's odd as it was much worse before if the phone was warm from being in my pocket. 

Either way, the phone is still terrible to use and worthless. I've been trying to RMA the phone since April 17, 2014 -- we will see if it ever happens. I'm definitly at the end of my rope.
