Oneplus Nord 2: OxygenOS 12 with C.05 Build

OnePlus Nord 2 Software Update:

Oneplus Nord 2 receives the C.05 Build with OxygenOS 12.1 with Android 12 update which carries DN2101_11.C.05 build with the security patch i.e, May 2022 Android Security Patch along with a whole lot of changes and fixes in the System, Camera, Battery and Performance of the device.

OnePlus Nord 2 was released in July 2021 with Android 11 out-of-the-box.

This is confusion among the community moderators & individual users, as the device had reportedly received an official version of the beta, OnePlus Nord 2: OxygenOS 12.1 with Android 12 – Open Beta 2 It was in fact an Open Beta 2 but released for the stable version of the user running Android 11.

We ourselves are using this Device with C.04 Build, and so far didn’t get the OTA of C.05 Build after checking multiple times, along with this issue they have released a rollback to Android 11 with the “oplus_ota_downgrade.zip” package but it only works if you’ve C.05 installed. Kind of disappointing, to say the least.

On the other hand, the devices running Android 11, are getting June 2022 Security Patch which tells us something has gone wrong with the software update of Android 12 and they are trying to cover up without a proper clarification among the users.

Previous Updates:

- Beta Build: Oneplus Nord 2: OxygenOS 12 Open Beta 1
- Beta Build 2: OnePlus Nord 2: OxygenOS 12.1 with Android 12 – Open Beta 2

Note: let’s wait and see what happens with the future beta/stable builds of Android 12, it’s kind of confusing, to say the least. But hope for the best and patience is key here.
