So I was waiting for initial reports on the latest Beta.

Mega Mirror is below https://mega.nz/#!KtAQQAAK!R5BOLYk_CDwCg1V6Bhn5tyQWFkDXDZjGgf8jPGzUBII

Thread will be updated momentarily :)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ivicakc:
Did you try it with magisk 18.1?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
No i have not personally tried it yet as i usually run the closed builds but is there anything that is broken or incompatible ?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ivicakc:
I don't know. I know that beta 4 and magisk 18.1 was not in good relationships.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] jrsndr:
Been playing with the new build for the last hour. Phone app has crashed on me 2 times and OEM Unlock option is greyed out now. Everything else I use is working great. Going to wipe and start clean and I'll bet those first two items I had problems with will work fine.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] c3v1t:
Update yesterday evening (italian time) but all is working the same way. No crashed apps, no OEM Unlock option grayed.

No unlocked phone, I did only a second reboot after the update.

For now I don't see any difference from beta4.

Have a nice day!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] reaper000:
Verizon was perfectly fine on OB4.

A dirty flash of OB5 full OTA update made me lose cell service every other minute. No calls could be made. Unusable and reverting now....

...

Reversion to OB4 was seamless; VZW service restored.

Wonder what happened with OB5. Perhaps will experiment with a clean flash when phone is not mission critical.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ludolf71:
No issues with Beta 5 after some hours use.

For those missing security updates, Google did'nt release any for February.

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] kermex:
My 6T freezed today, I guess while it searches for OB5 update! None of the hardware buttons worked, the phone was completely black! Finally I succeeded to restarted. The OB5 came immediately after.

After OB5 update I cant view call recorder settings in the phone app the settings window crashes, but the call recorder it self seems to work fine.

There's no call recorder in OpenBeta 5.

Strange I'm still open beta4 do I didn't realize that. Sorry

There is call recorder native in ob5 and my settings did not force close..
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] davemuir:
OB5 working perfectly for me, BUT the latest Canary Magisk is causing bootloops.

Beta working fine, though.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:17 PM ----------

I think it depends on your region

I could be wrong, though
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] free4flight:
OB5 ... call recorder did not appear in phone settings, root and install magisk native call recorder, reboot, call recorder showed in phone settings but crashed settings, made a call and hit the recorder icon (which was there), call recorder worked, then I went into settings, call recorder gave the option to turn it on, even though it already worked. I turned it on, all is good in settings now. There is obviously some bug in OB5 concerning the native call recorder.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
Yes, swipe up from middle doest recall previous apps like 9.0.12 does.

---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 AM ----------

This is partially wrong. You can go back and forth dirty flashing between Beta 4 and 9.0.12 with TWRP and the full OTA zips, because they are on the same security release. I do it all the time and never wipe. Data, settings all in tact.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Galadriel7966:
I experienced none of those issues at all. Just my experience

I used the guide with Termux app, by Fredrik Fornwall from Google Play store.

It's much easier this way, with no adb, drivers, etc.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
Let's see, I'm on 9.0.12. Been going back/forth dirty flashing Beta 4 and this. Will flash OB4. Then, OB5. See what happens. I also run Magisk 18.1 and Radioactive Kernel. Plus I'm on Verizon. Will report back in 20 min.

Update, all flashed fine. On Beta 5, they fixed the swipe up on Home for recent apps that is working.

Verizon working fine, speed test 65mbps down/50mbps up...so that is all good. No other issues, running Magisk 18.1 and Radioactive 2.7.1 kernel. All good.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] foobar66:
So far beta5 working fine for me. I just flashed the partitions directly using dd.

And of course debloated the useless stuff :)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ludolf71:
My mistake, I looked at the Pixel and not at the CVE-list.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cervantesjc:
For those having force closures, make sure that you clear cache, I have been using OB5 since yesterday, I wiped cache right after installation and have not had a single force close, everything is smooth and battery life is just amazing this far
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryano89:
So another stupid question.. if I'm on Beta4 and DON'T want to flash beta5 right now, how do I get rid of the persistent notification telling me it's available? I'm a T-Mobile convert, rooted and running xXx and I just don't feel like uninstalling it and everything to flash beta5. I can't take an OTA, but I can't get rid of the notification.

---------- Post added at 06:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:40 AM ----------

Went ahead and flashed. There is definitely something weird with the call record function. On first boot the feature worked but settings we're inaccessible. 2nd boot the feature disappeared altogether, 3rd boot feature is back but settings crash. I never use the feature but I checked it out because I saw some having problems with it.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tlf55:
I'm on beta 5 dirty flashed from stable 9.0.12 and something weird with settings, some are in english other in french (my native language) before it was all in french.. Is that normal ?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] indian84:
Yes.

This has been reported few times on OP forums too.

Guess it should be solved in next update.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] YassGo:
Hi guys,

Is it Ok if I Dirty flash back 9.0.12 over Beta 5 ? I've done 9.0.12 to Beta 5 with no issue but I don't really like it and miss Renovate Ice.

If not, how to make a proper clean flash ? Because last time I tried it corrupted my device :(.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT : Dirty Flash is ok. Stable is better for me. Beta are not fully translated also.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] srikanth_s:
Clear cache u mean from Stock Recovery-->Wipe Cache?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryano89:
You dirty flashed . 12 over beta5? Wow, I didn't think that would work.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] culiacanazo:
Here's my feedback! Do away with integration with apps that need (otherwise) downloading, an account, etc. There is and you know it and there has been for years and years NATIVE!!! N-A-T-I-V-E VIDEO CALLING.

Whose side are you on anyways?

Thank you!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cervantesjc:
If you have stock, wipe it with stock, if you have TWRP, wipe with TWRP.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
You can dirty flash back forth all the time with no issues through TWRP with full OTAs. I do it all the time with no issues.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ivicakc:
Guys, little help. I just flashed ob 5, everything is perfect for now, but... If I stay on roms kernel on my home seI loose status bar... When enter settings or apps status is comeback...

I flashad blu kernel, and status is back again...

Edit. Also flashed magisk 18.1 and now I have magisk icon and magisk manager icon.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryano89:
Wow. Then why all the posts telling us not to do it? I've been wanting to try Renovate Ice but didn't feel like clean flashing and going through all that to get back on stable. You just dirty flash the full file, flash TWRP installer etc.. just like normal?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
Yes.

Flash OTA from TWRP, full file, not partial.

Flash TWRP immediately, reboot Recovery.

It will then be on partition A

Flash OTA again and TWRP.

Flash Magisk, kernrl

Reboot recovery.

Should be back on partition b again.

Flash Magisk and kernel

Reboot 2x times.

Magisk usually ask to install the full app afterwards on 2nd boot after a minute.

Then setup normal stuff, busy box if you need it or kernel tweaks like kcal etc...

You can go back to 9. 0.12 or Beta4 same method.

I usually wipe dalvik cache on each partition as well before starting the flash.

Also, I run magisk Uninstaller on each partition before starting the above flashing.

Never fails.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] j0hnh0lmes:
FYI you can ota update of you're unrooted. I did with my TMobile convert phone.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryano89:
Thanks, I'm rooted though.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryano89:
How do run uninstaller on each partition?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
In TWRP, select Reboot. You can switch slots on the bottom. So tap A, then reboot recovery, it will boot A partition back into TWRP. Vice Versa, you can jump/boot back forth between A/B partitions.

Download the latest Magisk uninstalled .zip from the thread they have.

Additional, separate, my phone has started the delayed notification issue again with Beta 5. Beta 4 or 9.0.12 I resolved with PNF Root, disabling optimization and a custom doze disable script upon boot. But it has done a delayed notification 2x times, until I wake the phone, it wouldn't notify.

Going to go back to 9.0.12...it was the best/stable seeming for me.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] LOVE ME PLEASE:

Can anyone upload the beta 5 OTA file (not full zip)

Damn... Is it that hard to look at the first page?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] droider007:
Is it that hard to read a simple sentence?

files on the first page are full zip..... I want the incremental OTA file (~ 135 mb)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tuneer:
Use this app called oxygen updater and choose "incremental update" and "beta channel" , in the options , that downloads the incremental ota which you can then flash via system updater app via "local upgrade".

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
If you are rooted you can't take a partial update.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryano89:
Correct. I was asking about flashing back to stable from beta. I haven't taken an incremental update since I converted from T-Mobile software a couple of months ago.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] niphoet:
I manually updated to Beta 5 a few days ago, but every time I reboot it wants me to do the upgrade again. Has anyone else experienced this?

Users on xda say that you can do it from twrp.

Beta5 ... General bug fixes and improvements ... what does that mean???

What don't they simply list them?

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
I think it will be added one day but it will be a new feature for a new phone first, then after a few months of using it as an incentive to buy hardware, it might be added to older models.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] xstefen:
I mean it's kind of a stupid and pointless feature anyways so why risk potential anything for it
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] humblehyper:
Bummer, that's what i had experienced with beta 4, I guess i'll have to wait until the final build is out. Thank you!

She used to a lot back in my Samsung S3 days when my phone would spend more time in TWRP than actually working. Every time she'd call it would go to voicemail.

Hearphone touch don't act as needed and don't stop/pause music but allow to change volume... It's strange to me.

I've been getting that since way back when I used to piece together WindowsCE ROMs. Anytime I have a device in my hand when I'm on the couch "watching TV" I get sideways glances still.

The proximity sensor for me too doesn't always work the way it should. I haven't hung up on anybody but I have place several calls on mute. I try to report everything I find on the Community app. Also I noticed when downloading very large files the process would stop sometime after the screen turns off. Android auto sometimes closes and restarts only when navigating. Everything else seems stable to me so far
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Ryano89:
So this might be a silly question, but here it goes. I converted my T-Mobile variant to international software, which is awesome, but now I see that TMobile has updated their Carrier locked 6t's with RCS capability. In the U.S this is controlled by the carriers. Does that mean that the international version will not get RCS capability? This is a highly sought after feature, as most people in the U.S do not use WhatsApp or other services like it.
