This is absolutely cracked. I've been with OnePlus since the One, also getting the 2, 6 and now I have the 12. Stuck with them all these years because I really respected their - original - take on device freedom. I really should've seen the writing on the wall given how much pain it is to update it in the first place, as I have the NA version which only officially allows carrier updates, and I don't live in NA (and even if I did I'd still not be tied to a carrier).
Now I have to consider my device dead re updates, because if I haven't already gotten the killing update I'd rather avoid it. First thing I did was unlock the bootloader, and I intend to root/flash it at some point. Will be finding another brand whenever I'm ready to upgrade again.

- BeetleB 9mo agoWhat are good alternatives that aren't Pixel?
- palata 9mo agoFor now, Pixels. I'm waiting to see what non-Pixel phone will be supported by GrapheneOS next, but this may take a while.
- wolvoleo 9mo agoYeah I'm surprised that they announced it but not the vendor name. I'm sure Google with their infinite resources already know which vendor it is. So who are they hiding it from?
- literallywho 9mo agoFascinating. I've had a OnePlus 6 from 2018 until 2023 (all on stock software) and I've not had or noticed any issues like that.
- dataflow 9mo agoYou probably haven't had any apps that need to stay open a long time, or perhaps they have a way to relaunch themselves as a workaround. I've definitely seen this and it's incredibly frustrating to see processes killed when they need to stay running and are not doing anything wrong.
