hi
see below link one plus has discountinued the X
sad news we are dead end of the road for US :crying::crying::crying:
link : http://www.fonearena.com/blog/18830...now-focus-on-true-flagship-line-only-ceo.html
We'll still get N and I may end up picking up a Nexus down the road anyway. End of the road for OnePlus but most definitely not for us
I'm getting another year out of this at least
Great phone though. I have a few tricks up my sleeve still
That means NO Android M OxygenOS 3.0
So that also means OPX get no Android M OxygenOS 3.0 ? OnePlus One allready got Marshmellow for testers sound Kind of UNFAIR.
Anyway Installed Resurrection Remix 5.7.0 Android 6.0.1
If this Happends that 5.1.1 is the Last Update Unfair Support for the Onyx.
Thanks #OnePlus
No..

No... They are going to provide support for at-least two year after product launch ...so will be getting MM for sure (don't know when ) and may be "N"...for Oxygen OS
Hopefully :/ , i can't wait for OxygenOS i think we will get Android N soon and when not Official by OP than by CyanogenMod 14 or AOSP based Roms
it just means there will be no Oneplus X2. that is all. it does not affect oneplus X in anyway.
I wonder if the opened kernel sources would give a boost to oneplus X custom ROM development as well?
It means no mid spec device in the same form factor. It doesn't mean there'll be no high spec device in the same form factor.
However, having used a OnePlus One for a few days, and having had the OnePlus X for about a week now, I'll be in absolutely no rush to buy another one of their devices. There are far better Chinese options these days.

Hie all,
First of its not any criticism thread... Just discussion thread. We all know Oneplus 5t is beast device... One of the finest android phone in the market now..... But why there is so much delay in official Oreo build. And Companies like Xiomi and other other mid range devices release thier Oreos but why not oneplus?
Xiaomi didn't do anything. Only one device of theirs is getting it right now. And that too because it's a stock android device.

Which ones have it already? Also this phone won't be getting project treble either, so if that does end up making updates faster in the future (I have my doubts) then the 5T will be even slower compared to other devices.

My only concern is that after all this waiting, we'll get android 8.0 instead of the already available 8.1. However the Oneplus 5 already has Oreo stable and it is almost an identical phone to the 5t so I don't think we'll go through so many open betas as the 5. I hope the release of Oreo is near!
Oneplus busy making the SW for oneplus 6.

Flash the Oreo Open Beta, and boom, you have Oreo.
Even though it's a beta, it's still mostly stable and solid. Some apps force close, but for me it's mainly Facebook at times, and it's few and far between. Not much is gonna be different in the stable build once it's released, so you might as well flash the OB

I'm never in a hurry to get earlier builds of new major OSes. They always have major problems, usually battery drain being one of them. It hasn't really been that long.

This. It's like the huge push to get Lineage 15 for our device, when it's still missing tons of features that make it Lineage. They might as well work on LOS 14 so it could go official like the OP5.
As for OOS, let someone else be the beta testers. I don't need to be on the lastest and greatest just for bragging rights. We're still getting security updates for Nougat from OP so I don't see a problem.
Why do you all care so much about Oreo anyway? 4.7.6 is super stable, and working great.
Wysłane z mojego ONEPLUS A5010 przy użyciu Tapatalka
I don't know as though I "care so much" but I do enjoy having all the possible features and Oreo brings a few additions which aren't huge but worthwhile nevertheless. Considering I had read many reports of OB1 working without issue I went ahead and installed it and guess what, I have no issues. I do however have a few new features I like and I'm all for extra gravy. I would suggest that those that want Oreo but haven't installed the beta, consider doing it, you're probably not going to regret it and reverting is easy enough anyways.
I have the Oreo BETA 1 on my 5T and this is pretty stable, with a great perf/battery ratio, which means that the Oreo stable can only be close to release now.
By the way the A from Xiaomi is getting Oreo, but cellphones like Mi 6 or Mi Mix 2 with MIUI 9 are getting Oreo in beta channel.
correct me if im wrong
but dont they have new year hollidays now in china
For the first time Google, Android P's latest beta will be available on non pixel / Nexus devices including OnePlus 6, Essential PH-1, Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S, Sony Xperia XZ2, Nokia 7 Plus, Oppo R15 Pro, and Vivo X21.
I immediately jumped to get my 5T signed up, only to face disappointment.
Android P beta for OnePlus 5t was skipped and the same was available only for yet to launch OnePlus 6.
Lately I have got a feeling that OnePlus has shifted their interest from consumer focused company to buiness oriented company who are more concerned about thier new flagship and less concerned about thier previous users.
The unofficial treble support was provided to our device by the hardworking developers of OnePlus community but OnePlus did not make any efforts to provide the same.
The OnePlus community should send a strong message to the company that they should not make the old coustmers feel left out.
We should pass following message to OnePlus:-
a) Providing official treble support to 5 and 5t.
b) Providing the lastest Android version along with their new flagship phones.( Which will be possible if support for project treble is available).
c) Providing all the exlusive upcoming features to previous generation phones (5 & 5t) till the time hardware permits.
A) That is not going to happen. But Mokee ported Treble so hopefully an P Beta port will come to 5T at some point.
C) This is OnePlus we're talking about, I doubt they will.
I really don't think they care about the community anymore.
I thought OnePlus had quietly prepared the 5T for Treble by creating an empty Vendor partition in the background? It's not formatted yet, and OOS doesn't see it, but it's there?
I'm unhappy too, that they didn't use the 5T for their P beta, but if they provided the official base for Treble, then maybe we'll still see something from them or at least it will be easier for the XDA Devs...

A) If we push.. all of us.. we might stand a chance.
C) Exactly
As I commented in the news.
Quote Google: "beta available TODAY from those OEMs".
The "today" tricked me into thinking that this would be my beloved 5t but Oneplus let Google speak about an even unannounced device just to get in that damn presentation.
In other words: Oneplus doesn't even care about their existing flagship the moment they know the rough release date for their next one. This is beyond everything I have ever seen in the smartphone business. At the same time advertising heavily the OP5t on Amazon to get one of the last ones.
Oneplus was never a community focused company they just said it so often that the people thought it would be so.
HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT!
As far as I can see this whole Situation; we will get a taste of Android P anyway. Either officially or non official.
Official: because there in fact is an unused Partition (unformatted)
Unofficial: because hobby dev peeps around the globe were able to make the oneplus 5t Support treble.. therefore custom Rom creators should be able to create Android P roms for it.
Are y'all really surprised that we wouldn't get a P beta? Lol
Sent from my ONEPLUS A5010 using Tapatalk
Yes I'm in. Let's make a petition on change.org ?
Many people said of the oneplus 5t, it's the best against essencial phone... Better software, updates, design... But Essencial phone 1 have the beta xD
Now who is the best ??
I have a 5t
Android P require treble ?
I know this won't go down well, but did none of you do your homework on OnePlus before buying the 5t? OnePlus launch a new, replacement device every six months and concentrate on marketing and selling that; Every six months our new (to us) device gets moved to the back burner.
This is not a new strategy, and should not come as a surprise! Google how OnePlus 2 owners felt! I owned a 3t that was virtually obsolete four months later!
And every time this happens - every six months when a new device is launched - there is a thread on XDA to petition OnePlus about the unfairness of it all!
If this news is a surprise to anyone you should've been more aware of how the company operates.
Rant over.
Really dont't care for stock android p beta.
Much prefer for oxygen beta program with android P
Stock android is very poor and lack customization and feature option that oxygen offer.
If i want stock android experiance better solution is AOSP custom rom with plenty of feature and customization insteed of totaly naked stock android by Google IMO.
So we get OOS beta based on P later. (OP6 get first.)
I'm guessing we're still getting Treble support. There already is a /vendor partition created in one of the Beta updates iirc and they said: "Something exciting for you OnePlus 5/5T owners later this summer". So i'm guessing they're referring to Treble support.

Yh one does not always remember the exact words. P requires Treble we do not have Treble hence why we don't get it yet. If you really want it install MoKee ROM which enables Treble and wait for an Android P GSI.
Everyone should stop acting like treble is a hardware based thing.
The only reasons we did not get the beta is that Oneplus 1. is too lazy to deliver 2. wants to boost OP6 sales.
Treble is something completely software based and can be added at any given time (even without bricking the device).
I think the real reason we are complaining is (like the title says) that Oneplus is announcing stuff for a device that isn't even on sale yet.
It's like Google would have said "...and of course Pixel 3 is getting the beta from day one. We are already testing it internally and it is working great. In the meantime we are all very happy that you bought Pixel 2".
Not surprising from OnePlus. Unfortunately, they only seem to be concerned with what's the best way to make more money even if it involves abandoning their current users. This move, like all the moves they make, is about money. Doesn't matter if they ignore their current flagship device or users. Sad but true.

Oneplus is only focusing on their newer flagship oneplus 6. They don't care about their current flagship 5t and the community. Many other OEM's like Essential, Nokia, Xiaomi, Vivo and Oppo providing the android P beta for their current flagship devices.
Google made everyone believe that android P beta was available from listed OEM's at Google I/O 2018 but Oneplus didn't provide the beta. Instead, they said the beta would be available at time of Oneplus 6 launch which is wrong because Google announced that the beta was available from those manufacturers that very day. Oneplus is becoming more bussines oriented and don't care about the existing customers.
I would like Oneplus to launch the android P beta for the oneplus 5t.
This is a preview of a Developer Beta. You shouldn't expect it to come out for all devices in the marketplace. There are certain restrictions and requirements Google has set in Android P that the OnePlus 5T does not meet (vendor partition). All of the devices on their official list do meet this requirement.
I don't think OnePlus is in the wrong here at all.

Well i agree with you no beta without treble, but oneplus is only technically not at fault, they should have given a vendor partition, all this was just to make sure op6 gets the newbies and 5t has the same cycle as 5, shipping 5t with 7.1.2 hence no vendor partition

Well, you can ship phones with Oreo and no vendor partition. It's just not recommended. But to tell them they should be offering the preview to Android P is a little absurd. Especially since they already have their own Beta program going on with four of their phones.

There is already a partition that can be used as a vendor partition (That's how we have unofficial support). I assume that if there is already unofficial Treble support without re-partitioning OP should have no problem doing that as well. They most likely want us to buy the OP6 :\

This involves a potentially dangerous partition modification that no manufacturer would voluntarily offer to their users. I don't blame them, either.

I would have bought a pixel phone, but it's only available in like 6 countries (which is pure stupidity from Google)
Edit: it costs quite a bit too
Although it's tempting, I would never run beta on a daily driver.
I doubt OP will release a DP for P. But isn't it likely, with unofficial treble support, a Dev will build a DP treble rom? It's open source, right? So isn't that a possibility?
Asking for a dev preview is kinda shortsighted. Personally I would prefer for Oneplus to release a stable OOS based on Android P in less than a month or two after the stable source code has been released by Google.

True ?
When I was considering buying a Oneplus 1+8 pro I was being told by YT influencers and media that if you like clean and good OS with frequent updates and longterm support that Oneplus is the way to go.
It has now been over 4 months since last update and AFAIK nothing is happening on that matter.
We have OB2 which is nowhere near being ready for daily driver. Even when it is released as stable I bet it will be even worse as what the current 10 is.
We have updates coming out for the 7 and Nord series but nothing for the 8.
If somebody wants to claim that there is nothing to update I will call them idiots. This OS is nowhere near to the level of the OSs I had on my previous Samsung and Apple phones. There are all sorts of issues which are not being addresed by Oneplus.
Am I the only one having a problem with that fact?

1st - OB2 is like 3 weeks old, not 4 months. Hope you don't expect Stable A11 days after Pixels.
2nd - if you believe YT influencers, then I wish you good luck.
3rd - security updates are spot on.
4th - I use OB2 since the release day and have no complains. Eventually high battery use of Google Play Store app. Nothing crazy.
]1st - I was referring to stable A10. Latest update was released Aug 15, 2020. So not 4 months but 2. Still long time ago.
2nd -I cannot establish my own opinion since I have no chance to see these phones in person before purchase. Also this is nowadays normal and best way to buy stuff.
3rd - No they are not. The latest stable version is on August security patch. We are now in the middle of October. Even Samsung is pushing that as we speak.
4th - I use my phone for work so no I will not run beta SW on it.
Samsung are better with security updates, but oneplus will get android 11 first
No complaints with 8 Pro updates this year...

First off. Don't listen to YouTubers, and influencers, I think I would poke someone in the eye of they told me that's what they did for a job..
OnePlus absolutely smashes the other OEM's in regards to updates, Huawei, old HTC, Sammy, LG, Sony, sorry but none of them come close .
Pixel? Sure that's the source, but the shortcomings Vs pixel on the OnePlus, it makes up for with a bigger battery and IMHO a better Dev community and a course matched beta program.
You can't go wrong with OnePlus tbh.

Based on this report your claims have no foundations to stand on. Oneplus released 12 updates since the phone launched but most of them were minor updates and fixed nothing. Only one major update. I would not classify that in the "smashing other OEMs" category.

12 updates in 6 months is pretty good stats. Small or not. I have had all other brands and came back to OnePlus (I had the 6T as well). Even stock, it is a great OS. But, everyone has their own opinion.

No foundations? Perhaps the fact that OnePlus actually release stable OS' in a timely manner with very little need to change anything, OOS is an extremely stable and fast skin for Android..very light too.
Security update comes out OnePlus gets it... new OS in development, we get it early.....to what OEM are you referring?
Huawei does not offer this speed nor does it offer a beta program like this, Samsung didn't either if memory serves, Sony was pitiful and splintered (as was Huawei (due to device variants /regions) LG (do people still buy these types of phones? Motorola (budget phone not in the same league)
I've had a lot of phones so I have some experience here, this is a public forum, you can take my advice or you can move on, what I won't do is try to convince you against something you appear to have an agenda towards, personally I can say without prejudice or bias that the OnePlus 8 pro is the best phone on the market right now, very few people would argue that point.
Updates are on point, end of story.
A good OEM won't release huge updates because they have nothing to fix, meaning it was done right the first time, a bad OEM will do the opposite, like Samsung releasing a £1500 phone with a camera that won't focus.
Oh wow just saw your end of post, you compared an android device to apple.
Oh dear.
Tell me can you Bluetooth files yet? Is apple still crippling it's OS due to an "update" ?
Don't compare any android device to apple you'll get very little sympathy here in that regard.
Samsung? Really? Exynos processor in the non US variants? And you're supporting them? Anyone who likes android or has an ounce of respect for themselves would boycott them and sign the petition to get Snapdragon in all their phones..
I wouldn't swap my OnePlus if you offered me both the iPhone XS and the ultra.
Lastly I and the absolute vast majority of people have not and do not have any issue with our OnePlus phone.
Fastest phone out not.
Battery life? I get 10 hours SOT consistently, even when gaming.
What issues are you referring to? If it's green tint (see above)
