OnePlus has started rolling out OxygenOS Open Beta 15 for OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro smartphones. The update brings June 2020 security patch, dark mode toggle option along with bug fixes and improvements.
The company has posted a detailed changelog of the update on its forum. It is important to note that this is a beta update and it might not be as stable as the official OTA. So, it is important to backup all the data before installing the latest version of the Open Beta update. Users running stable build can also install the new update manually by downloading the update package when it becomes available.
The official changelog reveals that the new beta build brings dedicated dark mode quick toggle button. The toggle button is accessible on the notification bar, alongside other quick toggles. Like the recent update for the 7T, this OxygenOS Open Beta 15 build returns the one-handed mode, which can be enabled by heading within the Quick Gestures sub-menu. The one-handed mode will be activated when a user pulls the screen down with a swipe down on the left or right edge. One can swipe back to restore it to normal size.
The Android Security Patch for June 2020 is also a part of this update. The OnePlus brand logo has been updated for a refreshed look. The Bluetooth hearing aid App connection under the Android 10 Audio Streaming for Hearing Aid (ASHA) Agreement has also been added. The step counter’s accuracy for recording movement has also been improved. Lastly, the company has moved the frequently dialed contacts to within the dialing interface for quick access.
Here are the latest open beta builds for the OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro.
