LineageOS 18.1 brings Android 11 to the OnePlus 6 and 6T

Last month, LineageOS 18.1 based on Android 11 was released for nearly 60 devices. Now, Oneplus 6 and Oneplus 6T also got included in the list.

OnePlus has yet to roll out an official Android 11 update to the OnePlus 6 or 6T, so LineageOS 18.1 is the most stable way to run Android 11 right now.

New features in LineageOS 18.1

  • Security patches from April 2020 to March 2021 have been merged to LineageOS 15.1 through 18.1.
    • 18.1 builds are currently based on the android-11.0.0_r32 tag, which is the Pixel series unified
      tag.
  • Wi-Fi display is available for newer Qualcomm devices, on a device-by-device basis.
  • WebView has been updated to Chromium 89.0.4389.105.
  • The Recorder app has been vastly improved in more ways than can be counted, go leave yourself a voice-memo so you don’t forget that great idea!
    • Screen recording has been moved to a QS tile to match AOSP’s behavior.
    • The user interface has been revamped and there’s also now a UI for easily viewing, managing, and sharing your voice notes.
    • It’s now possible to choose the quality of your audio recordings to save space.
    • It’s now possible to pause and resume recordings.
  • The FOSS Etar app has been forked, improved, and shipped in place of the stagnant and largely
    unmaintained AOSP calendar.
  • The Calyx institute’s FOSS Seedvault application has been included as a built-in backup solution.
    • To use it, navigate to Settings -> System -> Backup, and “Change backup provider” to Seedvault. You can then click “Seedvault Backup” to configure, schedule, and encrypt backups!
    • Backups created with Seedvault can be uploaded on your Nextcloud instance, an external USB drive or kept on your local storage.
  • There is now an option on non-A/B devices to update the recovery image alongside the OS, just as the stock OS would!
    • To use this, either enable the option during the initial device setup, or navigate to Settings -> System -> (Show More) Updater -> Three Dot Menu in the top right -> and check “Update recovery alongside OS”.
  • The music app, Eleven now has a more up-to-date UI and integrates nicely with all the new android
    features for music players such as seeking from the notification.
  • All LineageOS apps now have support for dark mode.

The build for the OnePlus 6 is maintained by developers LuK1337 and luca020400, while the build for the 6T is maintained by just LuK1337.

You can download LineageOS 18.1 for these devices by visiting the wiki pages linked below. Be sure to follow the installation instructions to a T because it’s easy to soft brick your phone or mess up installing GApps and other addons if you follow any steps out of order.

Some changes we can expect after this update:

  • Calculator app Easter Egg: The first change we can expect is the Easter Egg in the Calculator App.

Before OxygenOS 13. When we write 1+= We can see the easter egg of Never Settle (as shown below) But it has been removed in OOS 13.

  • Battery Health: We can expect the Battery Health feature in the Battery section like OnePlus 11 Series and iPhones. It is one of the most beneficial features for people who bought second-hand OnePlus devices.
  • Lock Screen: We can also expect some customization features in the Lock Screen with OxygenOS13.1
  • Per-App Language: We can expect this feature as this is available in Stock Android 13 provided by Google. With this feature, we can use different languages in Different Apps. If you want to know more about this feature then read this.
  • Improve Themed Icons: As we all know themed icons are not supported by most third-party apps. But we can expect the themed icons for the apps after OOS 13.1
  • Better Connectivity: We can expect better connectivity of Bluetooth devices, Wi-Fi, and Internet Connectivity.
  • New Interface while connecting Bluetooth Earbuds, and Headphones: we can expect a new interface when we connect the earbuds.
  • Improvements in gestures and motions: We can expect new gestures or improvements in the Gestures after this OOS 13.1 Update.

Hot Apps and Oppo’s ColorOS Browser in OxygenOS 13.1?

Published

nothing phone 1 line issue article thumbnail

As most of the users who are using Smartphones of OnePlus 8 and 9 series are  Green and Pink Line issues in their Smartphones after updating their devices to OxygenOS 12 or OxygenOS 13. In OnePlus this issue occurred after the Integration of Oppo’s ColorOS into OnePlus’s  OxygenOS. In OnePlus smartphones, people have to replace their Displays to fix this issue. The Display is replaced for Free if your device doesn’t have any physical damage or dent. If you have any physical damage or dent on your device then you will be charged for the Display Replacement. Most of the users are charged for Display Replacement.

Nowadays, the same issue also occurs with a Nothing Phone 1. A user on Twitter whose username is @JB_O07 has reported that their friend is having this issue. They have a green line on their Nothing Phone 1.

If we talk about how the reasons for this issue. So, I have read the comments below this Tweet. The reason I think is, Probably this is due to the OLED Panel used in Nothing Phone 1 Display. But according to comments. Some users said that this is due to Nothing OS 1.5.3 which is based on Android 13. But the user who Tweet tells us that this isn’t due to this update. Some say that this is due to Extreme Heating Issues. But I don’t think that the line issue is due to Extreme Heating.

Note: These are just probably. We are not sure about the real reason.

The only way to fix this issue is to just change the Display as like OnePlus smartphones. You have to visit the service center.

Free Display Replacement?

There is not any official confirmation for this but OnePlus give free Display Replacement. If the device doesn’t have any physical damage. Doesn’t matter even if it’s in warranty or out if warranty.
