OxygenOS 11.0.0.2 hotfix rolling out for the OnePlus 7 and 7T series

OnePlus started rolling out the Android 11 update back in late March, but pretty quickly it became apparent that there were issues with the new firmware, so the rollout was halted. Now, nearly a month later, the company has a hotfix that resolves the “unforeseen bugs” in the original release (the bugs themselves are never explicitly listed).

Here’s OxygenOS 11.0.0.2 for the OnePlus 7, 7 Pro, 7T and 7T Pro. This update has been rolling out over the weekend, but it goes in stages and only a limited number of users have received it. So, don’t worry if you haven’t received the notification yet, it’s coming (note: using a VPN to jump to the head of the queue might not work, some report that they can’t get it even through Oxygen Updater).

If you installed the original version 11 update, you should see the hotfix weighing in around 200 MB (depending on the device). This also includes the March security patch (the original firmware came with the February patch).

If you’re still running Android 10, then the update is over 2 GB, so be patient. And we’ll give you the bad news right now – there’s no Always On Display mode, not even on the Pro models seemingly (which had it working during the beta stages). Here’s the complete changelog:
