Hey guys, I am new on OnePlus . Have the Oneplus 8 Pro with official firmware. I see that OnePlus have beta firmware available. So my question is what to do. Is the beta safe and do you guys prefer beta above official? For example , this beta build is from December 29th.. yesterday ...
And can I go back to official after installing the beta?
I know it sounds a bit nooby, but this is my first OnePlus. Was on Xiaomi and Samsung before..
Please advise...

It's completely safe and you'd be forgiven for thinking it was a stable release.
Just be careful when updating or reverting back to stable. One of the previous releases forced a wipe.
Very unlikely to happen again but that would be my only gripe

So it's an updated version of the official, right? Like a pre official?

You'll get updates as new betas are released, personally I stick with stable, I prefer it.
Betas get new features which may or may not come to stable.

Hello... The problem is:
The official build release date is older than the beta release date, so the OTA will likely fail...
You could unenroll from beta, recieve the 7.1.1 OTA and later take the 7.1.2.
Good luck... :good:

Yeah I was like WTF myself...
For final 7.1.2, it looks like the OTA has been built before the beta 2. Certainly no changes between beta 2 and final build.
As I said before, just unenroll from beta program, accept 7.1.1 OTA and you'll recieve 7.1.2 soon after...
Cheers...

To be honest, I don't know. On Google site, they say that beta users are supposed to get the final build first lol... Which is clearly not the case. On the Pixel devices, people are waiting as well...

No, but you can flash the full 7.1.2 image over beta. You should have already received the stable version. Just un-enroll from the beta program, download the full image and flash. To keep your data, just remove the "-w" from the flash-all.bat.

It's up to you. Install nougat if you don't want any bugs. If bugs don't bother you, and you want to have the latest version, install oreo
Oreo ROMS (& stock too for that matter) still have BT car audio issues with metadata not displaying correctly in some vehicles (including my 2013 Accord.) If this isn't of concern to you, then go O.
if you don't mind with latest security update, go with N.
I have many complaint with Oreo.
I'm using stock oreo 8.0.0, not rooted and haven't encountered any bugs, so I'd recommend oreo

One of my frnd updated to Oreo n facing many problems so wait for stabel update current one having many bugs m r8 nw using noga n its flawless !!
It's funny how many complained about bugs in Nougat, but as soon as Oreo came out, Nougat is suddenly stable, bug free and the best ROM ever made. I have no issues with the latest Oreo and recommend it over Nougat..
No issues with Oreo that bothers me.
Nougat is quite stable, I use it for two month before Oreo came. If you choose Nougat, no more update for you, however there might be custom ROM for nougat in the future since the source code has been release. If you choose Oreo you will get the update, but dont expect too much.
Oreo.
No issues here.

Nougat. Sot is 8 hours compared to 5 on oreo. Also, oreo is bugged. I wish I could upgrade to nougat.

Of course you can upgrade/downgrade as you like.
Could you explain what is your "joke" mean? or you try trolling people here?
B392 Update is now out for us FRDL04 users. Based on the description it's just security patches and nothing major. Update file size is 170MB.

True lol. I think there's maybe one more security patch and then we should be receiving the Oreo update, since I saw Honor recently tweet about Oreo preparation for the Honor 7x.
Yup I finally got it. Looks like it is rolling out to everyone today.

Lol. I know one of the devs for Honor USA and there is NO Oreo release for the 7x for main distribution yet. They just started the beta a month ago. Go check honor USA beta group on Facebook if you need confirmation.

Hi guys,
I just got this update too on my FRD L04. Since it's been a while I factory reset after an update, I did so to clean up my phone of all the other junk I've been stacking. Well this was a huge mistake because now the my bluetooth earphone won't connect to my phone. Before factory resetting, and on B392 it worked perfectly fine, I don't know why and how the factory reset messed with the Bluetooth connectivity. Anyone have a solution for this? Thanks.
Hi everybody, just letting you guys know that there may be hope for us to receive android pie. It seems that the Chinese version of the phone is receiving the update these days, screenshots in attachment
Edit: i think it might be a beta ota actually, from the name
Thats great, how to install that chinese version on BND AL-10 device?
Thanks

I have no experience whatsoever with Honor devices in regards to modding, but I would guess that one could make a flashable zip out of the full ota update that you can download, and flash it through twrp

Ok, I will wait until the release is stable and at least for USA, hopefully it will release for us.

Apparently, they plan to release the global beta (idk which countries tho, I hope it will be like last time) on June 19th, gonna take a good while. Still happy that the device is going to get official support, as the hw is not so mainstream

This has been installed already without needing to do rebranding.
Installed with hwota.
.has bugs and not quite ready for general use.
It has no Google app store. Gapps cannot be installed. Adb install is not working.
It is a true work in progress.
My.opinion for right now,. If you need to ask how to install it, then you will have issues to use it as well.

Thank you for the info.
Yes, modding these devices looks more difficult than any other device I own, that's why I won't touch it until end of support (got my unlock code thanks to xda)
I don't know what's happening exactly with oneplus that is have this type of delay with the monthly updates and security patches with the Serie 8, I don't want to install a custom room but it looks like i will be force to do so due to the lack of updates from oneplus, hope that oneplus do something for the community who like Oxygen OS.
IDK what you're talking about. There was an update 2 weeks ago.
Yes but it was a beta one no a stable one....

Oneplus provides updates for 8T bimonthly, so it's useless to wait for them every month.

I have been on build 11.0.11.13.KB09CB for the last 3-4 weeks I keep looking on OnePlus Updates but it seems the updates they show me are older. Am I missing something?? Am I on the latest update?
I also received my unlock token today, all the different threads to root are confusing, twrp, broken twrp. boot only, flash it, magisk, only use your own boot img, do use don't use magisk canary, flash EU, don't flash EU flash Global etc.....can you point me in the right direction on that? Thanks in advance
