      • Fixed the small probability issue that the speaker doesn't work
      • Updated Android security patch to 2020.12
    • Camera
      • Refresh the animation effects when activating the front camera
    • Game Space
      • Newly added Rewind Recording where you can record the exciting moments in the game of past 30 seconds with just one tap (Swipe down from the upper left or right corner to quickly open in the Gaming Tools)
    • Bluetooth
      • Fixed the issue that the call may freeze when receiving the phone when playing music via Bluetooth

    Please keep in mind that this is beta software. These builds are sometimes not as stable as our official OTAs generally are. By installing this update, you accept the potential risks. For those who were on previous versions for OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro, we appreciate your active feedback and for reaching out to us. With your help, we have been able to better optimize and improve several key areas. Thank you for your patience and as always, we look forward to getting your continued feedback via the Community app.

    If you don't have the Community app installed on your device, feel free to download it HERE. You can check here for more information on the integrated Feedback tool.

    Please note:
    • If you have already flashed an Open Beta (you are currently running the latest Open Beta), you will receive this new build as an OTA.
    • If you are not running open beta software and would like to, please refer to the flashing instructions and the full ROM on the downloads page here.
    • Once you migrate to the Beta path, you will continue to receive Open Beta OTAs. You will no longer receive the regular Official Stable OTAs.
    • Moving back to the Official OTA path from the Beta path will require a full install and clean flash (full wipe of all data and cache).
    Make sure to let us know how you feel about the beta builds here in the thread too. We are watching.

    Never Settle.

    5G is still not enabled for my carrier (Vodafone Ireland) with this build. I have been updating tickets and providing logs since the first OOS11 builds,. I can't believe that something as simple as enabling a 5G profile is taking this long.
    This will unfortunately be the last OnePlus device I use, which sucks because I otherwise like the 8 Pro very much. 5G has been one of the selling points for this device however, and at this stage it's simply false advertising.

    Same problem with 5G here in France.
    I have a contract with Bouygues Telecom and pay for 5G but can't use it because of OnePlus.
    Like it's been said before, 5G is one of the main selling point of the device and I bought it partly because of it.
    I've had OnePlus phones for years but the OnePlus 8 Pro will certainly be my last

    I've got this issue with the photo gallery that everytime I open the gallery it takes a while before all pictures are scanned/counted. Is this an issue with the beta? Or does the official build have this issue as well?

    In some time Oneplus will become Xiaomi in software department. Because the whole operating system is buggy. Even oneplus stock apps are also take too much time to load like gallery and message. Camera quality is very horrible at this time. In this price range the camera should be good but it's worse. They provide best hardware but without software it's nothing. Oneplus should seriously think about software department. I got beta 5 and it's also so much buggy ..

    You're running beta software, and then asking for stability? Do read the 1st post of the thread, maybe?

    Bro the stable one is more worse than beta. I am using both in different phones, in one phone beta and in other stable version.

    Same. And the Stable has a little more consistent battery backup for me. Both are extremely stable though

    Where do I do this? Stupid question maybe.. You mean doing a factory reset without wiping data?

    wipe cache is other than factory reset no data will be deleted
    On the other hand, a software will never be perfect there is always an error in it you should also watch how a user uses everyone else uses their phone
