Updating to Android 10? - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Hey guys, just bought the 7 Pro and was wondering should I update to Android 10? I keep reading things that the phone doesn't run too well with the latest update. Anyone have good luck 10.0.2? And if so how did you go about updating? Through the OnePlus website or the oxygen updater app? Thanks!

Using the beta and having no issues as a daily driver with Magisk and EDXposed installed.
10.0.3 should be coming soon no idea what the changelog is yet but likely fixed what ever bugs people were having in 10.0.2 if any.

I got about 5 hours of battery life no joke, **** that. Tried wiping, kernels, xXx NoLimits, nothing helped. I'm back on Pie.

Yes, do it. I did it 2 weeks ago, and the phone runs perfectly fine. Use the oxygen updater app, and read otjer threads to reassure yourself; go to the guides section

Is Android 9 Pie worth it? Still on 8.1 Aug here

I've a TA-1055 in the UK and haven't had an update since the August security patch 8.1.
I know others have the Android 9 update but I'm still waiting for the OTA to arrive. There are some features I like in the latest version but there are plenty of posts on here about problems and how to rollback to 8.1.
Like with every version if updates go smoothly and all working fine then yes updating is always recommended but Pie still seems buggy over all.
Is it worth upgrading yet?

Don't know if it is worth upgrading. I am also in UK on TA-1055 Oreo 8.1 but Oct security patch which came OTA. Still no sign of OTA update to 9 and HMD support is useless regarding info about UK versions getting it. They keep saying it takes time to roll out.

There's some problem in update which is making device more buggy so wait else your condition will be like us...

No real issues on mine, very happy with Pie.
But as this forum shows, YMMV.
No issues whatsoever on Pie, here. The only problem I have with the phone right now is that the brightness doesn't go below 16%, which isn't related to the Pie update, according to reddit.

I have an issue with camera... When taking a photo and trying to view it from within the app... the camera app just stop responding...
I did not have this issue on Oreo.

not have this problem with 3.39b on ta-1046
Not worth it if you like being a maybe semi newbie super user with this, because after it you'll become an iSheep.
As with any new phone I always disable most of the stock Google apps from the start. Just thought I'd re-enable the main Google app and reboot into safe mode.
Bosh! Now I get the update notification for Android 9 and ran the install plus received all the latest security updates.
Main instant issue on Pie is the search bar that cannot be removed without using a new launcher or rooting..Bugger
OTA Pie arrived on my UK TA-1055
Just to note that I got the OTA Pie update here in the UK on a TA-1055 last night. I was on 8.1.0 August before that.
It came through with the November security update, the December update came through straight after.
All seems to be working fine with no factory reset or out like that.
No issues with mine, but nothing to write home about either. Android 9.0 is meh in general. Don't stress so much about it.
I upgraded from Oreo w/ Oct SP to Pie w/ Dec SP. Is it worth the upgrade? I'll let the Pie battery stats speak for itself ? (n.b. I fully wiped /data by factory reset from recovery then restored from Google cloud backup).

Question about Rooting the OnePlus 7 Pro

Hi there, I just got my OnePlus 7 pro and I seen the root guide and have some questions.
I was wondering if anyone can answer my questions about rooting the OnePlus 7 Pro.
Currently I am on OSS 9.5.1 on 1917. This guide shows that I need to be on 9.5.4, but when I try to update the OOS it takes me all the way to 9.5.6.
What is the best way for me to root? Will 9.5.4 work for me since I am on something lower like the 9.5.1 OSS?
Any help would be appreciated. I have not used the phone yet due to me wanting to root it so I am hoping there is a solution

Search around the forums. Someone has posted a patched 9.5.6 boot img. That's how you'll get your root.
Here it is ?

sadly went back to pie...

I wish I could have stayed with A10, however I noticed my favorite app which is kodi dont work.
Many addons just dont work and forse kodi to shut down. Also SPMC doesn't work at all. very disappointed. Everything else looks pretty good on A10.
just bad luck ?

Help getting back to android 10

Hi guys.
New to this forum.
Been searching through the threads but really struggling to work this out.
I bought this phone because it was great for COD mobile. Worked perfectly with my dualshock 4 controller now after the latest 11 update the buttons are messed up. Figured Sony would have fixed this considering they sell the phone with advertising specifically for this gane, oh and they make the controller as well! Madness!
Anyway I've tried using newflasher to get back to the last 10 update but with no luck. Presumably because of the rollback protection in 11. I did manage it once but that was on the first update this new one just won't do it.
Is there anyway of maybe wiping the OS and flashing a new clean install of android 10?
Worried about rooting because I don't really want to lose my warranty or any features (or screw the phone up) Don't think it's possible without doing that but would be grateful for any advice anyone can offer!
Thanks
Hey I go back from 11 to 10 with this rom:
Sony Xperia 5 II | XperiaFirmware.com
xperiafirmware.com
I have used newflasher and IT worked.

Thanks for the info.
I tried quite a few times but it wouldnt go back for some reason. It did work from the first A11 update but once you update to the latest one you cant go back at all.
Luckily it looks like they've worked the problem out between themselves and controller now works with COD and better than before!

You made my day! Yesterday I bought this nice piece of Hardware and spent around 12 hours (reading almost all tutorials in the whole internet) to install Magisk on a XQ52-AS52 58.1.A.5.330 (Android 11). No chance at all.
After downgrading to 58.0.A.28.51 it works very well. Thank you a lot!
Will the firmware on the link work on a XQ-AS62? I have been looking to downgrade from Android 12 to Android 10. Thanks!

Need help ASAP!!

Hey everyone, I hope everything's going well. Today, I did a small mistake of downloading android 11 stable update on my OnePlus 7 pro and I am facing a lot of issues and second mistake I did was downloading the Indian version of OnePlus 7 pro android 11 package instead of EU one. I have tried many times to downgrade to android 10. But couldn't. Is there any way to rollback my OnePlus 7 pro to stable android 10??
Thank you!

Hi
Okay, once you are on stable OOS11 , the only way to get back to OOS 10 would be to download the rollback OOS 9 zip. This will flash , and erase everything from your phone. Make a back up.
Or you could just wait for a newer version of OOS11 to come out and get the one you want.

Hey, thanks a lot for your answer. Do you have any links of OS9 for EU version?? And after downgrading to 9.0, is it possible to update to 11.0 EU stable update??
