PS: Clean Flash Recommended, Dirty flash is fine if you are running a previous OOS Beta version, else if you come from a custom rom Clean Flash only.

Caution: Please remove your existing screen lock/Pin/Pattern/ Password and set it to swipe before starting the update process. Although in my testing i was able to update fine keeping my pin but some have reported unable to unlock after the 8.1 update, thus remove as precaution.

Also Remove all Substratum Overlays, Deactivate Xposed Modules and Uninstall Xposed and any other mods that may not be compatible with Oreo 8.1

1. Download the Beta Full Zip from above link and place it in the root folder.

3. Select Language > Install menu > Install from internal > Select Beta Full Zip > Flash

4. Upon Successful Flash > Wipe Cache

5. Reboot Once Done

The Device will reboot & your OnePlus 5T is now running on the latest OxygenOS Open Beta Firmware & OS based on Android Oreo 8.1

PS: The first boot may take some time so keep calm and wait for it to boot.

*************** For Unlocked Users with TWRP Recovery Method ***************

Download the required files:

Once you have downloaded all the required files on you device, please follow as below

1. Tested on both Codeworkx Universal or Latest Bluspark

2. Reboot Recovery and Take a Nandroid of your existing ROM just in case you need it

3. Flash Magisk Uninstaller

4. Wipe > Advance Wipe > Select Dalvik & Cache > Swipe to Wipe

5. Install Menu > Select OOS Beta 4 Full Rom Zip > Swipe to Flash

6. Flash Magisk 15.3 to maintain root & Wipe Dalvik & Cache once done

7. Reboot System and Enjoy OOS 8.1 without any data loss

8. Upon Reboot Open Magisk Manager & update the Manager App and Magisk 16.0

PS: Some users reported bootloop flashing Magisk 16.0 thus i recommend flashing 15.3 and later updating it in OS.

Thank You all for your Support Feel free to drop by and get the Latest first by joining the Biggest OnePlus Support Group on Telegram

Never Settle

The first boot may take some time so keep calm

PS: Do not flash partial update OTAs (under 1 GB) on a modified device! If you want to use partial OTAs, you must first flash a full OTA that it applies to, and then flash the partial OTA from stock recovery. Flashing partial OTAs from TWRP will either fail or soft brick your device. You can return to a usable state by flashing one of the above full OTA zips in recovery.

Sweet, thanks for 5T Open Beta 4!!

Personal wishes for the future:
- Light/Dark theme auto enable on day cycle, like the night mode on/off.
- Pick any custom color for theme accent. (Maybie link the few always red ones to the accent color as well!)
- Ambient display that is "always on".
- Visual gesture navigation feedback and sensitivity control. (still struggling to get the back gesture right.) It works alot better if not perfect in new betas!!
- Two fingers swipe up or drag and hold "back" for custom "navigation" gesture. Maybie use it to switch to last app, Google search or to turn off screen and such. Similar to what you can do with the hardware buttons.
- Launcher: Google Now page as an alternative to Shelf.
- Equalizer for Bluetooth output.

Thank you very much and have a nice weekend [e]1f618[/e]

Thanks for the update @Manu J.!! Congrats on promotion to Eclair lol 8.1!! Finally those threads can stop!!
As always, there can me some minor issues for those updating! For them:
Note: Update Issues
-Signature Verification Failed Issue
Most probably you are facing the signature verification failed issue. If yes then try:
a)From the file manager enable show hidden files and head over to .OTA folder and delete the file in that folder. Now download the update with a stable network.
or
b)Download the full zip from OnePlus downloads website(http://downloads.oneplus.net/) or Funk Wizard's thread in XDA and flash from recovery via local upgrade.

-Impatient to wait
If you did not receive the update
a)Download the app "Oxygen Updater" from Play Store and follow instructions.
or
b)Download the full zip from OnePlus downloads website(http://downloads.oneplus.net/) or Funk Wizard's thread in XDA and flash from recovery via local upgrade.
