But finally, the wait time is over and as of now, users have received the At the time of writing, these devices have received the Open Beta 1 update. With that, there are a plethora of new and noteworthy features that you are likely to welcome. The biggest change that you are likely to welcome is the complete UI overhaul (just head to the Settings page and you’ll get the idea). Then there are a few additions to the camera (of which the ability to directly share the image via thumbnail came out to be my favorite). Likewise, there are some Android 11 exclusives such as One Time Permissions, revamped power menu, Screenshot Share menu and he likes.

Bugs in OxygenOS 11 Android 11 Open Beta 1 for OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, and 7T Pro
These are the officially documented bugs that OnePlus has listed out on their forums:
Potential risks of increased power consumption and instability.In some conditions, the Gallery app might be slower to load and some pictures may not be displayed in the Gallery.The devices (earphones, speakers, etc.) connected through Bluetooth may not be able to play sound occasionally.Brightness adjustment may lag in some conditions.
Apart from that, I did a few explorations myself and managed to found out users complaining of issues related to their inability to set up Fingerprint Scanner, OnePlus Launcher, and Settings keeps stopping, some are not able to set their device refresh rate to 90HZ, and are stuck with 60Hz and the inability to use AOD. Likewise, there are quite a few more that aren’t as major as the aforementioned ones.
And let’s not forget the fact that the OTA that OnePlus rolled out erased all the data on the user’s device. While it is always recommended to take a backup beforehand, but some decided not to do. This is because OnePlus official instructions clearly say that you don’t need to take a backup if you are upgrading from stable MP to Open Beta OBT. The OEM was quick on its part to remove those links, but even then, there were already a few infuriated users who lost most of their data. All in all, there are many users who have now made up their minds to go back to the earlier version. So if you are looking to perform the same, then this guide shall come in handy. Here are the detailed instructions to rollback or downgrade the OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, and 7T Pro to OxygenOS 10 Android 10 from the newer OxygenOS 11 Android 11.

How to Rollback/Downgrade OnePlus 7/Pro/7T/7T Pro to Android 10 OxygenOS 10
Here we would be doing a rollback from the newer OBT to the previous OBT build. Yes, that’s correct. As of now, it isn’t possible to rollback to the MP build. In other words, we would be doing a downgrade from Android 11 Open Beta 1 to Android 10 Open Beta build and not the Android 10 stable build. Furthermore, in the case of the OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro, you will have to install this rollback package twice. This is because, during the first installation, it will only delete a few system apps. To perform a full downgrade and remove all of them, it requires you to flash the downgrade package once more. As far as the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro are concerned, only a single install is needed, no need to install it twice. So with that in mind, let’s get started with the guide to rollback or downgrade the OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T, and 7T Pro to OxygenOS 10 Android 10 from the newer OxygenOS 11 Android 11.
