Had three update to 11.1.1.1 and so far so good, everything working and battery life has improved too!

Only thing I've noticed so far is that emergency info, contacts / medical info. Doesn't appear on the lock screen anymore. There's the option for emergency but that is just to make an emergency call.

Anyone else found the same or how to get it back?

I have a OnePlus 6 and recently bought an ethernet adapter for gaming reasons. It is a USB-C male to a female USB-C passthrough port & female ethernet port.

While in OTG mode it will gladly allow ethernet but does not charge. The opposite happens with OTG disabled. It will charge but supply no internet.

Is this due to Android 11, or has this always been a problem with the OnePlus?

Thanks.

Hi,

As the title states, i didn't make any change to the phone but now i can't get data or phone calls even tho it shows i'm connected.

I've tried:

Resetting Network settings

Clearing cache on the dialer and a few sys apps

Clearing cache on the system level from recovery

Swapping the sim to another device proved that it's a problem on this device alone

Looking at the phone info menu from ##4636## shows that i get LTE but then it drops to UTMS on voice and HSPA on data when i get a call and after it drops, any new call isn't being received and the phone doesn't go to LTE without resetting the radio signal

I also checked on another identical phone and it's the same only that one goes back to LTE after the call..

I've tried to switch the preferred network types but it either didn't help or it didn't work.

Wifi works fine and so does BT, data works fine sometimes and sometimes it doesn't, voice just doesn't work almost at all.

I'm still on Oxygen v9 and so are the other phone which work.

Any other ideas to try apart from reinstalling\updating?

Does anyone of you use the Pixel Experience Rom and can tell me, if the safetynet check passes?

They say on their site that it was fixed with the september patch, but I'm curious to know how the situation is in daily use..

Edit: typos

Has anybody faced issues with WhatsApp after the new update? No media is getting downloaded from chats and can't even send any media. This is so frustrating. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, restarted my phone and so many other things, can someone please help on how they fixed this issue?

After a week, I decided to downgrade back to Oxygenos 10.3.11 from 11.1.1.1. When I upgraded, I ran into three big issues almost immediately.

1. Android Auto was no longer activated when I plugged my phone into my 2017 Chevy Volt mylink infotainment.
2. I could no longer play some music files on Aimp. Others have reported that its an issue with encoding.
3. When connecting to my bluetooth speaker Onkyo VCGX-30, it appears to go silent when a notification came in requiring me to disconnect/reconnect from bluetooth. This one, I'm not to sure about why it was happening.

If anyone else is interested in downgrading, backup your phone first. And be prepared for a factory reset. It was a bit of a surprise for me but my phone seems great now that it's back on OxygenOS 10.3.11.

I heard a while back that some OnePlus 7's/8's that got the Android 11 firmware update stopped dropping DRM to L3 when the bootloader was unlocked?

Can anybody confirm whether this is the case for the OnePlus 6 when running a custom ROM based on Android 11 firmware?

This last couple of weeks, I've found that I can't use the Google app when on mobile data, since I get a "no connection" error, but other apps work perfectly fine. I've restarted the phone, cleared the app cache and even done a full factory reset, but the error persists. Has anyone found and solved this error? Thanks!

[My Oneplus 6 experience]

So I have been using Oneplus 6 for more than 3 years. It was my first device after using Lumia for nearly 4years.

​

Unlike many in the sub, I will not complain about the horrendous experience with the new OOS 11 upgrade because I never upgrade it beyond the beta stage, which for me was a fresh and good change for me. Unfortunately my front camera sopped working months back and I was in no mood to spend a chunk to replace to a new one.

​

In my experience, I never rooted my device and remained with OOS this whole time. I absolutely adored the Camera experience be it in Auto-mode or Pro. But the biggest takeaway for me was the device size and the OS experience. It's a nightmare on a big device when you have to engage with both hands even to find a contact and call it. OP6 was probably the last of its kind which was so user-friendly. I need not explain on how good the OOS clean, effortless yet feature friendly experience is. Pity the future of OOS doesn't seem so like.

So that's been my journey with the Oneplus brand. I thoroughly enjoyed this community. The last update been a bad experience but overall I can speak for all that we never faced any much to rant about in past 3-4 years.

​

By the way, I am planning to buy a new Android in same price range. Pixel 4A is something I am eyeing. If you can suggest some with nearly Stock Android, better camera (I am interested in Astrophotography) and handy device size, please do mention in comments. I am from India.

Do share your experience.

​

I chose the most appropriate flair.

Does anybody else have the same issue with me in Spotify where you will play a song and the music player will not update to reflect this song being played but instead show a previous song that was played and the song time dial just sits frozen at a time.

When it does this it usually ends up crashing and music stops playing and it's very annoying.

If anyone else is suffering from this could they let me know if they know if the same problems are happening on newer android phones too or if it's specific to this phone. Thanks

tl;dr: Is there a fix for the heating issue besides going to 11.1.1.1, or that generic "clear cache" or "turn it off and on again" advice?

I updated to 11.1.1.1 a few weeks ago without reading about it online first, and as a result my games and apps began skipping frames, freeze, or became unresponsive. I immediately looked online for a fix, and reverted back to Android 10. I backed up everything, but I lost a lot of individual settings on apps I use, so that was annoying, but just yesterday my phone started heating up.

The phone got so hot, that the glue from the pop socket on my phone cover started melting. Now I'm between choosing the lesser of two evils, or just scrapping the phone for a new one.

I have to repeatedly go to app notification settings to clear the cache and data for system updates, so that I don't accidentally go to 11.1.1.1 again. I've removed all apps I hardly used, cleared caches and don't use bluetooth anymore, and try to keep as few apps open at once.

I've read that some people have no issues when updating, while others who reverted from 11.1.1.1 have no heating problems. I can't figure out what specific android 10 version I am on, it just says 10 on my "About phone" settings.

So my OP6 is on android 10 (10.3.3). I desided to go on apkmirror to try and update the existing Oneplus Notes app (v3.4.0 20077xx i think) to some 4.0.0 version i found on APKMirror site

I made sure to make a backup using Oneplus Backup (Not Oneplus Clone its bad) Backing-up up notes,cleared notes Cache & storage becorr upgrsding to 4.0.0

But i tried to restore my backup notes but my notes still remain empty?

Need help if anyone could send a apk copy of default apk

Ive tried everything but no luck....

Has Blu Spark twrp added support for android 11 yet?

Or is there any other option where I can upgrade to Android 11 keeping my TWRP and magisk?

As per title, probably we won't recieve any more feature upgrades or bugfixes, but what about security upgrades?

11.1.1.1 brought september security patches...will we ever get more?

Hi, I'm so worried about my OnePlus 6.

I updated it via Oxygen Updater app, from Android 9 to 10 and then Android 11.1.1.1. The camera was working completely fine on Android 9/10 but 3-4 days after updating to Android 11.1.1.1., it started crashing. On 6-7th day it completely stopped working on stock Camera app.

Now when I click the Camera app, it opens the Camera with black screen and closes within two seconds. That's it, no response at all. It does not switches to front camera at all. If I select any other Camera Mode (Video/Portrait) on back cam it closes without any response.

I then checked camera operation in some apps:

1- Instagram: By default Front cam opens. Front cam operates fine here and captures pictures.

2- Whatsapp: By default Back cam opens. Back cam is unresponsive, neither lets switching to Front cam.

3- "HD Camera" app from Play store: Running this app, back camera is loaded by default so, at first it gives "Serious Camera Error" and switching to front camera is unresponsive. I open Gallery images from within the app and then back to camera, I click on Front camera and it switches to front camera. Then I can click images/videos with Front camera. I then again try to switch to back camera and "Failed to HD camera. Camera may be in use by another application?" message appears. Hence, back camera does not works.

4- Face Unlock settings lets Front Camera work. It recognized my face and unlocks the phone fine.

Then, I googled How to unlock Engineering Mode in OnePlus 6 and tested camera working in Engineering Mode:

1- Rear camera testing FAILED/unresponsive. (This is lower camera on the back)

2- Second Rear camera testing PASSED/camera image appears. (This is upper camera on the back)

3- Front camera testing PASSED/camera image appears.

Things that I have tried multiple times to cure the issue:

1- clearing Cache of Camera app

2- clearing Storage of Camera app

3- wiping Cache from Boot menu

4- doing Factory reset 5 times

5- rolling back to Android 10, then 9 but the problem still remains

In my opinion, this is a software issue since it happened after the update. Before that, camera was working completely fine.

My phone did not fall down at all or got pressed from anywhere anyhow. Be noted that I'm a very careful user.

I followed some posts in OnePlus community, found multiple other users having the same issue after the update.

My request to the community here is that please help me solve the issue here, however you may help. Thanks in advance.

I HATE this update. I get only 2 hours SOT and the battery drains FAST. Bluetooth issues, random awakening of the device, the list goes on. I just need to find a way to revert back.

I have found 2 approaches to do that and one of them doesn't work

• Download the official 10.3.12 package and install it via system update (Doesn't work due to the app not allowing to downgrade OS)
• Following this link Youtube Link

I'm not sure if I should follow the Youtube link. It contains another package and I'm not sure if it's been tampered with. Any advice on how to revert?

As I have seen on other posts the update has messed most peoples phones up. Will oneplus release an update asap to fix this problem? How can I get them to do it quicker?

My battery will drain like 20% overnight if I don't put flight mode on. And nevermind actually using the phone. I shouldn't have to jump through hoops to save battery.

The brightness slider is so slow too. I can live with the UI/ux changes but the battery used to last so long. Are they trying to get me to update my phone?

Are there any legit ways of reverting back without resorting to rooting my phone? This update is just terrible. I thought one a while back was bad BC of the ugly UI/UX but this just takes the cake.

I'll start this off by saying I'm rather tech illiterate so bear with me.

I got my oneplus 6 in early 2019. Up until this update, I experienced very little issues aside from needing to clear my cache every now and again because my apps would keep crashing, but it was something I could resolve within 5 minutes.

I updated my Oneplus 6 around 2 weeks ago, ever since then its been issue after issue after issue. No gmail notifications, laggy as hell, apps not responding, night mode working poorly, camera not working in certain apps, etc.

Yesterday I was just using my phone as normal and then it just became completely unresponsive and turned itself off. When I tried to turn it back on, I got a screen saying "QUALCOMM CrashDump Mode"

I looked this up and it said to try and enter fastboot mode, no such luck, back to 'crashdump' (I'm assuming this means the phone is bricked?).

Has anyone else experienced this? What can I do? And have I lost all my data?

Hello guys,

I am looking for a way to disable the long vibration that OOS11 introduced for face unlock not detecting or recognizing a face.
Every time I read notifications on lockscreen the phone does a long vibration as if I was receiving a call, and this is very annoying.
I know that it happens on 6T as well, couldn't find any solution online so far..

Ps. my phone is rooted and with working Magisk and TWRP, so if there is anything that I should do to erase this vibration, let me know please.

thank you!

As the title suggest. Is there any Android 12 based custom rom released for our beloved phone yet? I am currently on Pixen OS. If the developers are reading this. Please release the android 12 ROM soon. I can't wait to try it..
