Oneplus 8 OxygenOS 11 problems - OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers

Hello, I have been having problems since the day I installed OxygenOS 11 on my OP 8, but over time it got worse, recently it is hard to even open the phone because sometimes it just blocks, for a couple of seconds, or if I lock the screen while I have a fullscreen app on, I would get an error message saying that UI has stopped working.
I tried a factory reset and even went back to OxygenOS 10, which worked way better, but with all the notifications every restart I accidentally reinstalled android 11, and the same problems came again, lag, performance, and battery issues, heating, etc.
I was wondering if there is a fix currently, or if there is a recommended ROM to have most of the features but a more stable and customizable since I have been thinking about flashing one for some time now.
Thank you in advance!

System Unresponsive with 5.1 Stock Rooted

Anyone having the same issue and have found a solution?
Phone suddenly stuck at some instances even with non-extensive usage.
Yesterday I was only using Facebook app. When messenger bubble pop up, my phone suddenly spiked. Moved once and then it got stuck already. You'll notice that it's not Facebook app only that's not functioning since nav. buttons are also stuck. You can't go press home and clear recent apps/hibernate apps. Power and volume buttons are also not functional.
So I assume the main system crashed. I only did a long press on power button to restart.
I installed Franco kernel r73, and thought that issue would only occur with stock kernel.
However, it occurred again today, I was viewing photos in Stock Photos app. I haven't started viewing the first 10 images yet, so memory should not be consuming that much. I turned on the auto rotate to view the image larger. When I turned the phone landscape, it reacted like it's about to rotate. And suddenly it got stuck. This time, power button is functional. It turns the screen on and off but it still turns to the same stuck screen, not the lock screen.
I've been experiencing this since 5.0.1. and almost everyday since I updated to 5.1.
I'm not sure if this is a hardware issue on my unit since mine is already about 1 year and a half old. I don't want to buy another phone yet!
Or is this a common issue nowadays due to Lollipop upgrade. If so, then could you provide temporary fix before they update this on 5.1.1.
Thanks a lot!
I had something similar . When I put forward the curtain hangs notice and then everything worked fine
Meh
I've seen this behavior on my Nexus 5 only on 5.1, and I'm pretty sure, it was introduced with that specific lollibug version. It's really annoying, that you have to reboot the phone every two or three days to avoid the freezes.
There's already in issue for that, it has got the ID 161032.

Stock Camera App, Proximity and Rotation Sensor Don't Work After Rooting with Magisk

Hello everyone, I have a fairly new OnePlus 7 Pro (GM1910) and needed to root it for something. I was on the latest OxygenOS, 10.3 and rooted it after several attempts. However, I wasn't able to do what I needed on OxygenOS 10 so I downgraded to OxygenOS 9. Rooted again, did everything I needed and formatted the phone several times, installed OxygenOS 10.0.3.GM21AA. I also re-locked the bootloader.
The issue is that whenever I launch my stock camera app, it tries to load image from the camera but then crashes before showing anything from the camera. Camera works in Instagram, WhatsApp and some other apps just fine, as well as during face recognition. In addition, rotation sensor doesn't work at all. Auto-rotate on and off, it just doesn't work. Finally, the proximity sensor doesn't work either. It doesn't turn off the screen when I'm on a call and hold the phone near my face. It doesn't change screen brightness when it's on auto.
These all happened at once. I believe it all started around when I was first trying to root the phone with Magisk on OxygenOS 10.3. I used the phone on OxygenOS 9 with and without root, these 3 problems were also there. Now I'm on OxygenOS 10.0.3, unrooted, bootloader locked but problems still exist. It's driving me crazy having all these issues even after turning everything back to stock, factory settings. I spent 4 days on this whole process and ended up with these annoying problems...
I can provide any additional information you need. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Even if you can just direct me towards the right direction to identify why I'm having these problems.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Update: The camera app just started working after another factory reset. A little off topic but now I'm having another weird issue where the Android Setup doesn't see my last Google Drive backup but sees the older ones from a few days ago.

Screen mode switching to saturated randomly.

Did you guys ever noticed phone randomly switching screen to saturated mode?... Happens randomly, kind of often.
While in settings it will still show you're on sRGB or natural, but actual calibration jumps to what looks is AMOLED white gamut. Switching it back to your preferred mode fixes things for some time until the next random switch.
I'm not sure if this is rom related or not, seems like I had this problem on multiple OBs and stables on Android 10, with different kernels.
Currently on OB12 + xXx + arter kernel and this issue is present.
I guess I'm the only one having this problem... one every OOS beta and latest stable with stock kernel, screen calibration literally jumps to wide gamut after locking/unlocking the screen.

			
				
Ice Bear has experienced this issue ever since upgrading to OOS 10 and it's been this way since the first version of OOS 10. Screen calibration was fine on OOS 9.
I noticed the switch happens when you receive a call almost 90% of the time. I had this problem since 10.0.0 and on beta as well. I provided system logs to help OnePlus teams to track this bug down and since then, I switched to vivid and did not bother much. Currently I don't know if it still exists, what's your build?

Random reboots on some custom roms

I've experienced the same random reboots over the past few months across several roms. While on PiXeN OS (which sadly was discontinued) and OOS everything worked as intended, the reboots happened on PalladiumOS, EvolutionX and DotOS. Since the characteristics are always the same and I seem to be the only one having these issues it's probably something device specific that gets triggered by some roms.
After using PiXeN again for the past 5 months I decided to reset my phone using the msm tool to rule out any driver specific issues. Afterwards I did a clean install of DotOS and TWRP without Magisk.
I already tried safe mode, which didn't help either so it's not app related.
The reboots seem to somehow be connected to motion. They do happen when the phone is in idle and isn't moved but way less frequently (didn't happen on DotOS yet but it did happen on occasion on the other ROMs) than when it's moved. Whenever I move it my phone reboots after a while (seconds up to an hour), it seemed to happen a lot when being put in a pocket but playing around with pocket detection and wake on pickup did not fix the issue. Whenever there's sound playing the moment the phone crashes it will play a loud sound for 10 seconds without changing the pitch, afterwards the device reboots.
Any thoughts on what the issue may be?

Performance issue

Hello, i've got my Redmi Note 6 Pro for a few years now and for whatever reason (probably updates) it started to become a real pain in the ass to use it.
Often phone will freeze while only doing normal things (not playing games).
Even starting my browser can take like 30-40 seconds.
So i thought i should downgrade MIUI or Android version, should i do it and can you tell me how ?
I should precise i already did a factory reset and once i downloaded my apps again everything started to be laggy again.
