On 14 June 2016, OnePlus released OxygenOS 3.0. It is a version of Android with few modifications and internal tuning, like Gestures, Shelf and a dark mode by OnePlus.[5]

On 31 December 2016, OnePlus released OxygenOS 4.0.0 based on Android Nougat and includes its features and several other modifications to the public via OTA download.[6]

On 31 January 2018, OnePlus released OxygenOS 5.0.3 based on Android Oreo to the public via OTA download.[7] In May 2018, OnePlus launched OnePlus 6 with OxygenOS based on Android Oreo 8.1.[8]

On 29 October 2018, OnePlus launched OnePlus 6T with OxygenOS 9.0 based on Android Pie.[9]

On 25 December 2018, OnePlus released OxygenOS 9.0.0 based on Android Pie for OnePlus 5/5T to the public via OTA download.[10]

Privacy issues

On 10 October 2017, a security researcher discovered that an OxygenOS system service named "DeviceManagerService" collects sensitive data and sends it back to OnePlus servers. The service collects many data points, including the device serial number, phone number, IMEI, network connections, and timestamped records of user activity within every app. Users can uninstall the system service via ADB.[11] Later, OnePlus released a statement about data collection and analytics, claiming that the data is only used for system improvement and optimization, are not shared with third parties, and can be disabled by users in the system settings. OnePlus also says that they are revising the data analysis mechanism, and will no longer collect certain data.[12][13]

History

In 2014 OnePlus promised a "close to stock, bloat-free and highly customizable" experience.[14] They soon held a "Name the ROM" contest in search for a name. On 30 January 2015 OnePlus officially announced the names OxygenOS and HydrogenOS.[15] The winner of that contest, @Midifire from Belgium, was flown out to their headquarters in Shenzhen, where he got to meet the team, along with their CEO, Pete Lau.[14][16]
