OnePlus as a company is greatly dependant on the community. This is the company’s primary medium for engaging its users and it offers them a way to voice their concerns.
As we know, there is no single piece of software that is perfect and OxygenOS 11 isn’t any different. There have been a few too many issues surrounding OnePlus’ new Android 11 skin.
The company has done a pretty decent job when it comes to mopping up some of these issues but more keep cropping up so the company is always fixing something.
Luckily, OnePlus is one of the more forthcoming brands when it comes to issuing statements, and periodically, we get an update on some of the bugs and issues afflicting various devices and their current state.
OnePlus through its Chinese community forum has just released a list of bugs and issues that it is looking into for the month of January 2021.
These HydrogenOS 11 issues affect many of the units that already run some form of this Android 11-based skin while some are a little more device-specific.
So what are some of these issues? Well, here is an excerpt from the publication. Please note that this has been directly translated from Chinese.
Worth noting from the above excerpt is that all these issues have been pretty much addressed and affected OnePlus devices are set to get these fixes in latest builds.
