Android 12 is finally here, and many of us are looking forward to getting it on our phones. Eyes are on all popular phone makers — including OnePlus — to see when they will begin rolling out updates. Matter of fact, the Chinese OEM has already kicked off an Open Beta program for evaluating OxygenOS 12, the upcoming iteration of the in-house skin that borrowed a significant portion of its DNA from OPPO’s ColorOS on top of Android 12.

As of now, the OxygenOS 12 Open Beta program is limited to the OnePlus 9 series. Naturally, the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro will be the first in the company’s portfolio to get the stable Android 12-based update when it becomes ready. OnePlus says that the following devices will also get the Android 12 update in the future: OnePlus 8, OnePlus 9R 5G, OnePlus 8 Pro, OnePlus 8T, OnePlus 7 Pro, OnePlus 7, OnePlus 7T, OnePlus 7T Pro, Nord 2 5G, Nord 1, and the Nord CE 5G.

List of OnePlus phones that have received stable Android 12
This article covers OnePlus devices that have received a stable Android 12 update — be it Open Beta or stable — in any region. To avoid confusion with the nomenclature, here is something you should note: the builds mentioned here are essentially based on the stable Android 12 codebase with finalized developer APIs. OnePlus prefers to tag some of them as “(Open) Beta” due to the fact that the initial release won’t have all the new software features you’ll come to associate with the OxygenOS UX skin. Everything that we have covered in the Android 12 Developer Preview phase has been refined for the stable version, but we will continue to see small improvements over the course of time. These improvements will then be available in the stable OxygenOS 12 builds.

Flashing Instructions for OxygenOS 12
Note that these are generic flashing instructions meant for the carrier unlocked OnePlus devices.
Recovery/Downgrade ROM Installation for OxygenOS 12
Both the Recovery and the Downgrade ROMs come as a standard ZIP archive and can be installed through the Local Upgrade method from within OxygenOS. You can also use a custom recovery like TWRP for installing these ROMs, though do note that device-specific instructions may differ in that case.
- Transfer the downloaded ZIP file to your phone and place it in the root of the internal storage
- Within your phone, go to Settings > System > System Updates, and then click on the top-right icon and select the Local Upgrade option.
- In case the Local Upgrade option is absent, you need to download the relevant app directly from OnePlus. After installing the downloaded APK, it can be launched from the app drawer like any regular app.
- From there, select the ZIP file that you have downloaded and proceed.
- Wait for the install process to finish.
