Today OnePlus has made available an update for Oxygen OS for its first smartphone OnePlus One. While the OnePlus 2 has launched running Oxygen OS outside of China, the situation’s been more complicated for its predecessor.

International One units shipped with Cyanogen OS on board, but since OnePlus and Cyanogen, Inc. aren’t getting along anymore the Chinese startup has outed a version of its own OS, Oxygen, for the One. This was a few months ago, and it hasn’t even been updated to Android 5.1 yet.

So What is Stagefright?

According to OnePlus “Stagefright” is basically a vulnerability in the multimedia stack that can be exploited via MMS which could compromise your phone. If you are currently using OxygenOS, It’s highly recommended to upgrade to this new version. If you are already on OxygenOS, this update does not require a reset.

How to Upgrade to Oxygen OS 1.0.2 Without Losing Data:

  • Download Oxygen OS 1.0.2 zip file from here.
  • Put the zip file in the root directory of your device.
  • Boot your device in recovery mode by pressing “power button + volume down button” same time for 2-3 seconds.
  • If you have default OnePlus Recovery select “Apply update from SD Card” browse the file and flash. For other custom recovery like TWRP go to >> install >> browse and select the zip file >> and flash.
