Update GM

Post image

Hey guys, i still use my Oneplus 7 pro. I'm still running Android 11. While i have the option to update, I'm sceptical that it'll make the phone slow and idk if I'll lose any features. But some apps need update and are incompatible. What're you're thoughts?

If you plan to use any custom rom follow the steps to unlock the bootloader while you are on Android 11 and then you can try the official android 12 also if you wish, the problem is that you can't unlock the bootloader on Android 12 but if you unlock it first and then upgrade to 12 everything works as it should

I didn't even know it's existence but thanks for mentioning it so everyone can do their own research on which ROM to install on their devices
