The steps aren't very complicated.
I followed this guide to do it.

However, I wonder when the update will hit everywhere.

Flashed to lollipop, seems snappier and I like the changes to notifications
Strange, I'm not sure what just happened. Got the system update notification for lollipop. Downloaded it, it finished. It said it'd take 20min to install and to make sure the phone had sufficient battery life. Plugged it in to charge it and the install button on the page greyed out. Accidentally hit the home button, now I can't get back to update it. Click on check for update, none found. I know it was downloaded... Suggestions? Help?
If it's on your phone, you can install manually by by first locating it on the file system, using File Manager.
Then do a reboot like it says in the site I linked to a few posts up, and install it from the location it downloaded to.
It shouldn't take more than a few minutes once it's installed.

The OnePlus One can now be bought without an invite.

I just download it from the Play store (the icon pack) and then just go into theme setting and just change the icons. May be I am missing something because I am not sure what you are asking.
Even before the update, I would easily get 48 hours on it...are you running something like Facebook or the like???
The Google Play services glitch killed my battery.

I still haven't gotten the update pushed to me.

Oh yeah, I had the same problem...The secret was to uninstall the 'play service' app and force its re-installation separate from other Google service apps.
This just released...if you don't want to wait you can download the image below...

With mine it works ok... But honestly I don't find it useful.
Has anyone been able to get smart lock working with a chromebook? My chromebook can find and pair the OPO via bluetooth just fine, but unable to connect to it.
It's also $298/$348 now compared to its previous $299/$349 price.
I bought mine a week the price drop, I want my dollar back

So what's the current consensus on Lollipop for the One?
Upgrade to it or don't?

Bought a OPO yesterday. Been awesome so far. Updated to CM12 and rooted right away.

I'd say no, but I hate the new notification system. Things look a little prettier, but that's about the only benefit to going to Lollipop. Cons outweigh the pros in my opinion.
Upgraded yesterday and so far so good but my Bluetooth audio in the car is messed up. Plays too fast and skips constantly. A shame.

No.
thanks, but i think i'll follow your advice and stay on kitkat 1st

It seems like the battery is draining faster with Lollipop.

Well, and fixing the Google Play Services no-deep-sleep bug.
But I'm seriously bummed Lollipop removed lock screen widgets.

Too late for me; I already updated. But I had tried to change permissions and something I did made Google Play Services crash a lot, so I changed them back.

I just wonder who at google thought the decisions they made with notifications and widgets were a good thing? Also why do I have to swipe up on my screen to enter my pin code when I could just enter it immediately when I turned on the screen in KitKat?
There is a google play services fix on the XDA one plus forum though if you need to fix that memory leak.
The battery saving still applies. Google services really wakes up the phone way too much. By denying Google Play Service and FB (you won't get FB notifications) my wife's OPO can last 3 days instead of 2 with moderate usage.

This annoyed me so much I enabled the face recognition thing that -- most of the time -- lets me skip the swipe code authentication step.

Lollipop is all about adding extra steps to do things that used to be easier. The goal of software is supposed to be to make things easier google.

No need, but my phone ran terrible after the update until I did a factory reset.

CM 12.1 nightlies.
Got my phone yesterday. Got it with the cover case and an orzly tempered glass protector. It's my first phone in 2 years. It's replacing my HTC One. It's fast. I love the screen size. I don't play games anymore, so I can't speak on that front. Performance in everything else is great though. A noticeable improvement over my last phone, but that's to be expected.
I'm running CM12. Not a nightly, though. I had a minor hiccup in the while update and reroot process when TWRP wouldn't replace the Cyanogen recovery. I had to Google that and learned you have to manually reboot after flashing a.new recovery. I'm not gonna bother with OxygenOS until it's better than CM. I'm not looking to experiment right now.
I'm looking forward to the OnePlus Two. PEACE.

My battery life has pretty much turned into utter garbage.
