This update for the OnePlus 7 series is dubbed as Android Q Developer Preview 5. And as OnePlus points out with the name, this Android 10 build is suited only for developers and early adopters and is not recommended for those who have little experience in flashing ROMs . This new update is based onGoogle’s Android 10 Beta 6, and now comes with support for the OnePlus fullscreen gestures while still retaining the Android 10 gestures as well as the navigation buttons. More choice is always good, and we definitely are not complaining, especially whenusers feel so strongly about this subject. Be warned that there are a few known issues with the ROM, and you might also encounter unknown issues along the way.
The complete changelog for the update is as below:
New Changes:
- System functions improvement
- System stability improvement
- Added the OnePlus full-screen gestures
- Based on Google Android (Beta6)
- For DP4 users, you can upgrade via online OTA
- From DP5, you can upgrade system via OTA to Open Beta
Known Issues:
- Application compatibility problems
- Compatibility issues with Google Pay
- Low probability of system lag and stability issues
