Until OnePlus release the signing keys used to sign new versions of the firmware - allowing us to potentially make use of future security patches - we're stuck with what we've got. The phone is currently capable of booting modern Linux with only a few patches, check the table on the right (or above on mobile) for the hardware support checklist.ĭespite being able to run an up to date kernel, we are still dependant on the now aging firmware for features like the bootloader, modem, wifi and bluetooth to function, whilst it is relatively unlikely that a vulnerability is discovered in this firmware, it is absolutely a possibility. That the millions of sold units have been dropped, destined for Landfill (or at best recycling) by OnePlus is abhorrant, join us in doing our best to continue to make devices like the OnePlus 6 safe and usable. ![]() The Snapdragon 845 is still an incredibly capable SoC, likewise the OnePlus 6 is a well-built and perfectly adequate device. See the SoC page for common tips, guides and troubleshooting stepsĪfter the OnePlus 6 reached End-of-Life by OnePlus in December 2021, running newer Linux kernel versions is the only way to ensure that the device can continue to be safe and usable for years to come. This device is based on the Snapdragon 845.
