I recently tried to flash Android 12 gsi on my OnePlus running oos 12 beta 1 but while flashing it said "unable to resize partition".
So I took it to a store and they flashed stock os that is oos11.
But I really really want Android 12 beta 5 on my OnePlus running oos 11.2.9.9
How to flash it without getting it bricked?
I don't think it's available yet, Its good that your store recovered your phone.
Beta 1 is buggy and worse than Android 11 not worth upgrading atm.
It is a Beta and Buggy as a rainforest!
Basically, it just changed the user interface of Coloros 12 to OOS12, which is a completely different system compared to the previous OOS, and within half an hour after I updated to OOS12, I was back to OOS11. It's a complete waste of time
i agree oos12 is ****ing dogwater lmao
Is it possible to install ColorOS 12 over OOS12?
Why did Oneplus ruin my new oneplus 9 pro with this crap. Now I am back to rooting and Rom'ing, in order to be on android 12 that isn't a complete disaster?
(rhetorical question).
I thought 11 was a downgrade from 10, as well. But nothing like this. And I could get 10 for 9 pro, since it released with 11

what did you decide on? i feel like 12 is bad all around unless there is a pixel experience one or a A11 themed 12

Look for it here on the forum.
Any way to downgrade 12 to 11 ? Or i need to root and go for custom firmware?
Look here: https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/closed-downgrade-to-android-11.1533089/
Oxygen OS 12, or should I say Color OS? is a disaster. I went back to 11 after like 1 hour.

Use MSM tool to flash. The best way to go back clean.

I did last weekend but immediately went back to oos11 due to no working data.
I will wait untill we have a trick to record call like OOS11.

custom rom time
For what it's worth, OOS 11 did not give me the performance on the 5G Network that OOS 12 is giving me now.
OOS 11 I simply edited the policy restrictions in order to access the 5G cell towers and the download speeds were 50% slower than a comparable 5G capable handset (iPhone 13 pro max, Motorola Razr 5G, One+ 8T 5G). Even after unlocking the bootloader, rooting and reapplying the modified policy restriction.xml the One+ 9 Pro on the OOS 11 had poor 5G download speed.
OOS 12 with unlocked bootloader, rooted, and using 5G switch (playstore app) the 5G download speeds improved greatly. I would say they are 50% faster than same handset on OOS 11. I cannot access engineering mode and therefore modify the policy restriction.xml file like on OOS 11, but given the faster download speeds I'll take it for now. For what it's worth, 5G switch would not work on OOS 11.
Another great option that OOS 12 has is a separate volume level for Ringtone and Text Tone. I NEED to be able to hear my text tone alert (which is usually a very short burst) all the while keeping the volume of the ring tone down so that I can take my time to analyze who is calling without disturbing those around me. OOS 11 combines ring tone and text tone under one forced volume setting, which blows imho.
I personally don't find the interfaces of the two much different, and cannot say that I have noticed any real speed differences or battery consumption pros and cons. I do like the graphical design of OOS 11 over OOS 12, but that can be improved by using different Launchers if that is your thing.
Cheers
Buyer beware - the latest OTA for OOS 12 comes with (apparently) an encrypted-ish bootloader that refuses to boot patched/rooted kernels or recoveries. I learned this the hard way on my 8t. So if you want keep root, it's MSM and custom ROM time.

Nothing new and nothing to be worried about. You need to disable boot verification by flashing a blank Vbmeta.img, and after that everything works like it's out of the box.
I have a Oneplus 9 pro which I bought from a chinese company in Hong Kong - Bludiode.com - I have been told it has Hydrogen OS on it but nothing says Hydrogen OS anywhere? It has just updated to Android 12 with a couple of updates recently. Is there any way I can check what it has on it. I always have been able to use Google and everything has worked well but the latest Android 12 has stopped the Amazon Alexa app working properly. Not fantastically worried but hey.
Where should I go from here? Some say change to OxygenOS but not sure if this is possible. Should I change to ColorOS and then OxygenOS? I'm in the UK.
Inspire me....

I'm a complete novice so please be gentle!! It says downgrade from OOS12 to OOS11. I don't have OOS12 - It's Hydrogen so is this the right file?

I have got as far as downloading the 2 files to the root BUT
The Local Upgrade as well as other system update options are not visible under the Update Settings page. So how do I install these? They don't install automatically and there is no way that I can see to install them?

Android 11 for OnePlus7T is a joke.
I was using 11.0.5.1 and had only problems.
Main problem is phone volume in general (a way quieter than on OOS10)
Full volume and you can barely hear notifications (so annoying!!!)
It is noticeable that the phone is running slower
The fingerprint reader responds a bit slower
Originally built-in Dolby Atmos have NO equalizer!!! (OOS10 without root you can install DolbyAtmos with Equalizer which gives you really powerfull sound)
I would stay with OOS 11 if it would bring out normal volume like OOS 10 but not this time.
As for me, personally, it's NOT worth updating.
I was able to downgrade to LOVELY OOS10 so if someone needs help with it write me PM.
I have Oneplus 11 from China flashed to global NA Version CPH2451_11_A.06.. Now I want to try the Android 14 beta from https://community.oneplus.com/thread/1311878789566824453. Anybody tried it? Will it work fine?
I have a similar China->India conversion and I'm running the oxygen Android 14 beta at the moment, runs fine. Haven't had any issues, but this is not my daily driver phone.
I have tried that Android 14 preview . But it's having lot of bugs now . So better not to flash it and use as daily driver
