And this month, the manufacturer is rolling out the February 2020 security update for OnePlus 5/5T as OxygenOS 9.0.11. This latest update primarily brings the February 2020 security patch, along with a few general enhancements to the system. According to the official release thread, following is the complete changelog for this update:

System

  • Updated Android security patch to 2020.02
  • Improved system stability and general bug fixes

To check if your phone has received the update, go to ‘Settings’ > ‘System updates’. Now since the rollout is taking place in a staged manner, it means the update will be available on a limited number of devices at first, followed by a wider rollout in the coming week(s). If you’re eager on upgrading right now, you can manually install the OxygenOS 9.0.11 update on your OnePlus 5/5T by following the instructions below.

How to Manually Install OnePlus 5/5T Android Pie Update

There are two different methods to install OxygenOS full ROM on OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T, depending on the phone’s current setup. The first method is for users running the stock un-rooted OxygenOS software. It involves using the in-built Local Upgrade option in the settings menu of the phone.

The second method, on the other hand, is for users who have TWRP installed and have rooted their phone, or have a custom ROM installed. This method involves flashing the OxygenOS full ROM via TWRP recovery, followed by Magisk installer zip file and Forced-Encryption Disabler, should you want to decrypt.

Note: The instructions use the latest OxygenOS 9.0.11 update for demonstration. The same instructions will work for any previous or newer version of OxygenOS as well.

Method 1: Using Local Upgrade Option

  1. Download Android Pie-based OxygenOS 9.0.11 full ROM for your OnePlus 5/5T.
  2. Connect your phone to the PC using a USB cable.
  3. Copy the full ROM zip file to the root (outside all folders) of your phone’s internal storage.
  4. Disconnect the phone and go to ‘Settings’ > ‘System updates’.
    Install OnePlus 5/5T Android Pie Update (OxygenOS 9.0.1) - using Local Upgrade - 01
  5. Tap on the gear icon on the top-right of the screen.
  6. Select the ‘Local Upgrade’ option.
  7. The system will automatically fetch the OxygenOS full ROM package.
  8. Tap on the OxygenOS 9.0.11 full ROM zip file.
    Install OnePlus 5/5T Android Pie Update (OxygenOS 9.0.1) - using Local Upgrade - 02
  9. Finally, tap on ‘UPGRADE NOW’ to install OnePlus 5/5T OxygenOS 9.0.11 Update.

Your phone should now reboot into the recovery and flash the update. If you face any unusual bugs/issues after the manual update, you might want to consider performing a factory reset via the settings or the stock recovery.

Method 2: Using TWRP recovery

  1. Download Android Pie-based OxygenOS 9.0.11 full ROM for your OnePlus 5/5T.
  2. Also, download the latest Magisk installer and uninstaller zip files from here.
  3. Transfer the downloaded files to your phone’s storage.
  4. Power off your phone completely.
  5. Hold the Volume Down and Power buttons together to boot your OnePlus 5/5T into TWRP recovery mode.
  6. (If using a custom ROM) Go to ‘Wipe’ > ‘Advanced Wipe’ in TWRP and wipe the ‘System’, ‘Data’, ‘Vendor’, ‘Cache’ and ‘Dalvik cache’ partitions.
    Install OnePlus 5/5T Android Pie Update (OxygenOS 9.0.1) - TWRP Wipe
  7. Go to the TWRP main menu and tap on the ‘Install’ button.
  8. Select the Magisk uninstaller zip file (e.g. Magisk-uninstaller-20200110.zip) and flash it. This will ensure that your phone is fully unrooted before you flash the OxygenOS update.
  9. Go to the ‘Install’ menu in TWRP again and select the OxygenOS 9.0.11 full ROM zip file (e.g. OnePlus5TOxygen_43_OTA_054_all_2002242025_cb8fe710.zip).
  10. Swipe the button on the bottom of the screen to install the update on your OnePlus 5/5T.
  11. Once the OxygenOS update has been flashed, you will need to flash the Magisk installer zip file to re-root your phone. To do so, simply go to the ‘Install’ menu, select the Magisk zip (e.g. Magisk-v20.3.zip), and flash it.
  12. (Optional: For decryption) If you previously had your phone’s storage decrypted, you will also need to flash the Encryption Disabler zip file in TWRP.
  13. Finally, press the ‘Reboot System’ button.

You may now go ahead and test out all the new features. If you face any bugs, please make sure to submit them here and provide your feedback. This shall help accelerate the development process and help OnePlus roll out bug fixes faster.

  1. This method failed for me. I am currently on OmniRom 8.1. I followed method 2 using siankatabg’s TWRP but got an error at the the that the file compatibility_err could not be found. That’s not the exact error, but something along that line. Any ideas???

    1. Hi John. Here’s what I want you to try. Once you have downloaded the OOS full ROM zip, open it on your phone using the Total Commander app. You shall see a “compatibility.zip” file inside the full ROM zip, delete that.

      Once it is successfully deleted, retry flashing the ROM now using siankatabg’s TWRP. Let me know if it succeeds.

    2. Dhananjay – Thank you SO MUCH ! ! ! Worked perfectly. I have been wanting to switch to Pie for so long.

  2. As mentioned above in method 1 after 10 steps to factory reset, it must be done in recovery mode or normal(settings-system-reset options) & this reset must be done before/after reboot??

    1. Hi again Sachin, you can do it using either. First off, take a backup of all your data including the internal storage. Then do the factory reset. It could be done before/after, but I prefer doing it afterward (No specific reasons).

    2. Im on Open Beta OS (5T) rooted and twrp. Will my root and twrp be gone?

    3. Hi. Once you flash the ROM zip, you will need to re-install the TWRP recovery and flash Magisk before rebooting the phone. This will make sure that both TWRP and root persist through the process.
