Same. Haven't had a problem the entire way. In fact I dirty flashed the patches before the first beta and then all those including this one without the slightest hiccup. The only thing that really stands out to me with the beta updates is that they're just plain boring. And no, I'm not trying to beat anyone up. I get that there is a lot going on that isn't in the notes. I get that not every update can have some stubby inducing special feature. But man, there sure isn't anything to get excited about. I've got the feeling that there isn't much left, the smartphone is really becoming mature. We kinda know what they're good for and we've sorted out how we're going to do those things. It's a bit sad for me as a long time flasher.

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
I have not tested this with Beta 6, but when doing a fresh install on Beta 5 after doing a factory reset, my backups would not restore properly (Google cloud backup, not TWRP)

For example , restoring a backup while in 9.0.12, it would say the backup size is 2.2gb and everything would restore. Restoring while on Beta 5 would tell me my backup size (for the same backup) is 1.6gb, then I'd get an error that my backup could not be fully restored. Application data, SMS, would not be restored.

Edit: I'm fully stock, no custom recovery or kernel.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] dghosto:
just to share it for somebody who needs it.

didn't know that it was this easy to go from stable (9.0.12) to beta (6):

- disabled all magisk modules

- uninstalled magisk with uninstaller in TWRP

- flashed beta in TWRP

- reboot to bootloader

- BOOT from TWRP image

- installed TWRP via .zip

- reboot to recovery

- flashed magisk

- reboot to system

everything is working fine :)

Hi, what are the customizations you use on alternative kernels? What are the improvements you see m

Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] pyry666:
Personally I dont tweak them at all. Mostly they are great out of the box. My main cause using them is wireguard support
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Mayze23:
^^ Same. Stock ROM since day one and every beta has been running great for me. No issues whatsoever
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeroKool76:
Yeah, not.much on the latest beta. Just small little adds. Like not having to turn your screen off then on again if your face isn't read in time. Just hit the button and the camera reactivates. Nothing crazy, but little touches like that add up over time. Still dont understand why all of these people are having such a hard time with this latest beta. Haven't had one issue, none.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
This last item, the dialer screen is a huge complaint for people. Although I don't see it anywhere, it works normal for me now. People are using the Google dialer to get around it.

I don't have the issue on my dialer. When next to your ear/touching, the screen turns off and it won't hang up accidentally anymore. It takes a few inches from my head for it to turn on...so I think it solved that problem.

With that said, I know a lot of people complain about the cosmetic/functional items they can see/touch and use. But as we already know, they are doing a bunch of stuff under the hood, and the Devs are looking hard at it, like the ZRAM thing. Haven't been reading/following it too close, but just another deep item that OneP would never tell/notify the user about in a release what they are doing, they know only the Devs would know, and they will find/figure it out themselves as they already know.

So because you don't have AOD...doesn't mean the Devs aren't working on improvements under the OxygenOS launcher to improve performance, battery etc..
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ma678:
I have never had any issue on stock dialer since day 1. My screen turns off when it is close to my ear and turns on when I move it away.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Caltinpla:
Same here. I tried different modded/patched Google diallers but always went back to the stock dialer. I'm really appreciated all the Dev's who mod/patch Google dialers to make them work with all phones but "one size doesn't fit all" I guess. ;)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeroKool76:
Exactly. And I think there are quite a few changes that only rooted users would notice, which is probably why they aren't including all the actual changes in the changelog

---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:24 PM ----------

Same here as well
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] culiacanazo:
No issue whatsoever here, just a corrupt screen I've been dragging from times past! Too busy (lazy?) to get rid of it, but like i said, it's unrelated .

And believe me, i flash the lights out of these baby (see above)!!

It's been on TMO os, on OOS, on HOS, ON OPOOS, on Viper OS, and Havoc OS, although that last one (in mentioning order, not flash order) i could not for the life of me get it to boot.

But nothing out of the ordinary here in OB6.

You do realize that screenshot is from Digital Wellbeing itself. The menu entry gets added if you install Digital Wellbeing using any of the various mods available.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] foobar66:
Yes, I noticed as well. No clue why they need to do this on a phone with 8G of RAM.

I disabled it ... phone runs faster without it.

The international version has been updated 2 or 3 times since the phone was released in November. You never saw that kind of consistency from Samsung! (Can't speak for Google because I've never owned a Pixel). That's not bad for a few months.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] lendawg:
Not to mention Samsung never really adds any ground breaking new features either....and they stop supporting their phones way to fast. If you want a Samsung go ahead I'll never by one of those overpriced pieces of s### again. I looked at the s10+ forum out of curiosity to see how their newest "flagship" compares to ours in terms of battery life. Even with a much larger battery it doesn't even come close. This is hands down the best phone I've owned and it's almost half the price of the s10+. Lol. Keep up the good work OnePlus.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ecotrojan:

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] playtime512:
Phone started at Oxygen OS 9.0.10...we're now on OS 9.0.12. 9.0.13 is probably coming very soon. That's since November. So I'm trying to figure out why dude in post was complaining about updates? Can't update every week. :)

Plus as much as we love it. Face it, op can't bring new stuff and reinvent stuff every month. And bug fixes is important . Might be ruining the experience for some people. There's been a few tweaks etc but that's good, until android q is ready there not going to bring millions of new things, just smoothen out and enhance what's already there. They add more than google does. They pretty much just release the security updates with not much else

Has anyone experienced any google pay problem since updating to beta 6?? I Usually never have an issue.. I don't even have to hide it in magisk.. I did the usual magisk module uninstall, uninstall magisk, update the firmware, twrp, then magisk.. But this time when trying to input my credit card in the google pay app, it tells me I am not able too because my device is rooted. I tried removing all modules thinking it was something I installed that didn't work.. I tried updating fingerprint authorization via terminal, that didn't work. I tried magisk hide and also hiding the magisk manager. same thing.. I still am unable to use google pay. I then finally tried uninstalling google pay after a fresh update over again, cleared cache and storage.. I just can't get it to work and magisk is showing i pass safety net every time. Does anyone have this issue or does anyone have any idea how to fix this. S
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Franzie3:
Try just stock beta 6. Can't call it a bug if twrp, root, magisk are a factor. OP has mentioned it before. Main purpose is to test on stock kernel and no root just pure beta
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] anthony10126:
I actually just found the answer... its not an issue with magisk or beta6 at all... its the newest update of google play services.. All i had too do was uninstall current version of google play services and install a previous version... restrict background data on both google play store and google play services and all is working great... can't update either until magisk comes out with an update that will work with the latest play services update versions...

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ecotrojan:
Another poor beta by OP
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] reppi:
That's a magisk problem because Google play services have been updated and detect root now or even an unlocked bootloader only. I suppose the magisk Dev is working on it already but there is no really working workaround for it right now.

More info is to be found in magisk forum here on XDA.

So some banking apps and Gpay quit working.

Just fized it 3 mins ago.

I downloaded Magisk Uninstaller to remove all the Magisk modules and flashed it .

After that tried to flash Magisk again and it's all up and working :)

Any kernel that I can use with OB6 except ElementalX that makes my phone crash ?

Why did you factory reset ? Is totally unnecessary

Had never factory reset since beta 1 till beta6
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
I don't use TWRP, root or any custom recovery or kernel. I don't want to venture out too much because that's usually when reliability starts to take a hit. I see people report more problems when they use a custom kernel, magisk and other mods compares to stock stable keep stock beta even.

So to go from beta to stable, it requires the MSM tool that wipes everything.

Unless I'm missing something. Maybe with just TWRP I could upgrade to beta and restore a backup if I need to go back.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mobile88:
Mine is on pure stock rom without root , stock kernel before I started to flash the beta version. No need twrp for that.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
Well, I guess something has changed with Beta 6 and trying to go backwards to 9.0.12 now. I used to dirty flash and go between Beta 4/5 or 9.0.12 with no issues. The phone won't boot and keeps coming up to the TWRP screen which leaves the phone encrypted. Only way to recover is to boot twrp.img, then reflash Beta 6. 9.0.12 is a no-go so far. Maybe it requires a firmware flash and it will boot? Not sure, but something is different for sure that doesn't allow a dirty flash from Beta 6 to other stuff. Havent' tried Beta 5 backward yet.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] cultofluna:
Flash 9.0.12

Install twrp

Reboot twrp

Flash magisk uninstaller

Flash magisk

Reboot
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
Yeah, I know the process, been doing it for months with no issues.

Boot TWRP

Uninstall Magisk

Switch partition, boot, uninstall Magisk again

Switch back to other paritions in TWRP

Flash 9.0.12

Flash TWRP/install

Reboot TWRP

Phone boots and wants you to swipe, Data is encrypted. Doesn't ask for PIN.

Have to fastboot boot twrp.img to get back into TWRP to decrypt.

The issue is after flashing 9.0.12 and TWRP, doing a reboot, it goes to the swipe TWRP and no decrypt, no PIN option and all data in encrypted with the installed TWRP.

Phone won't even boot if I just run the 9.0.12 OTA, on both partitions without TWRP or Magisk...goes to the stock Recovery. Beta 5 to 9.0.12 no issues. But after going to Beta 6, it won't go back to 9.0.12 no matter what I've tried. Not going to do a full reset/msmtool method at this point. Takes too long to restore data/apps etc.

I've gone back/forth between Beta 4/5 and 9.0.12 dirty for awhile now with no issues. Beta 6 something is up that you can't go back to 9.0.12 on my phone.

Have to fastboot boot twrp.img...flash Beta6 full OTA zip, both partitions, install TWRP/Magisk, boots up and runs rooted into recovery and system no issues.

Also, tried a fastboot flash no wipe back to 9.0.12, only boots to stock recovery afterwards. If anything should allow you to go basically back to stock it should be that method, but it doesn't.

Only thing I'm not doing is wiping Data...but I haven't wiped data 1 time with any over versions, everything has been dirty.

I flash the Beta6.zip full OTA again, using same methods, no problems, back up and running rooted.

Try it yourself, let me know if you can go backwards. I've tried it multiple ways 4 times now. Not happening.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] krypt0:
The reason you were able to move between beta 4/5 and 9.0.12 with this method is because the security patch was the same. It is January on all those versions. OB6 is March security patch. You either wait for next stable realese with same security patch to do this process or use the msm tool to go back to stable.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] techlogik:
Ohhhh...that's right. Forgot we are on March security now with Beta 6.....splains it!!

Yeah msmtool would be it then...or wait for updated stable/release on same patch.

Thx!
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] culiacanazo:
This is some awesome piece of info here, buddy thank you!

And looking at your screen name makes me wanna ask to you or anyone, really, as after months of trying almost every day, have not succeeded nor come across anyone with the issue!

I've been trying to decrypt to no avail.

I mean, i succeed BUT then when setting up screen credentials, you know, for things such as Google pay, it will enroll but any subsequent attempts to unlock give back a "Wrong" whatever, whether it be a password, pattern, pin, nothing cuts it.

What gives?

I bring it up here because this has not happened to me ever in any of my previous (and current) devices.

If you don't want to try out new builds (which may contain bugs) and report your experience to OnePlus, then install the stock stable builds. It's very ignorant of you to say poor beta. The very nature of a beta means it may contain bugs.

Just flashed ob6 and I tried this method, but this is only for rooted uses...now we can flash twrp from magisk and my procedure is:

Go to system and download new ob6

Install but DO NOT REBOOT (phone stay rooted until reboot)

Open magisk and flash twrp installer

Phone is now unrooted so flash magisk again

Reboot

Flash magisk again and that's it.

Ps, I forgot to disable my modules and swift/substratum but phone is boot with all modules and theme installed.

(rubs hands together)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeroKool76:
I believe it has to do with the type of encryption being used. FBE vs FDE. Supposedly on custom roms you can run unencrypted. But I had the same problem you did, 4 months ago when trying it on OOS. Even though its the encryption that has played the major part of why people have issues flashing stuff, I would still prefer the stability of OOS over anything minor like that, offered by custom roms. And since it doesn't look like the FP is going to be working anytime soon, I say RIP custom devs [emoji23][emoji23]
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] culiacanazo:
No, I've ran ViperOS in the 6T, same result.

I'm typing this from STOCK, unencrypted EMUI 9 (in no small part due to how my 6T has spent more of its existence with me on RECOVERY, BOOTLOADER, or DOWNLOAD than in actual SYSTEM.

Personally I got my phone messed up some time ago using twrp. Had to wipe everything and start fresh with using fastboot (I use linux) witch was a pain.

Flashed OOS 9.0.11 to try to make it work but then the phone only boot on stock recovery. I restore it with MSM Download Tool. After everything was setup, it asked me to upgrade to 9.0.12. I don't like how it works! It seems lagy indeed.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] culiacanazo:

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] kraoc:
EX seems to have a problem with lastes OOB6 because OP add some kind of Zswap and it seems to be incompatible.

ro.vendor.qti.config.swap=false
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] SpasilliumNexus:
I don't know what they did or if they did anything RAM management-wise with OB6, but games I play then come back to after a while are no longer refreshing.

I can play Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia, spend around 2-3 hours browsing on Chrome, Gmail, OfferUp, eBay, Discord, Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, YouTube, listen to songs while messing around with my playlists in Spotify, watch a TV show in PlayStation Vue, and come back to exactly where I left off in the game.

Before, it would always take me back to the intro screen. It sucks that OmePlus don't post kernel sources for Open Beta so I or someone can confirm if they changed management.

Or maybe the game was optimized further, and Square Enix didn't mention that in the changelog.

Locking apps in recents may be useful after all now.
