OnePlus 5 and 5T get Project Treble support in latest open beta

OnePlus once said that both the OnePlus 5 and the OnePlus 5T would not be getting Project Treble support. Project Treble allows for much quicker updates and easier custom ROM support, enabling stock software to boot mostly working without needing custom drivers.

Fortunately, the company has gone back on their word because the latest OxygenOS open betas for the 5 and 5T contain Project Treble support! Open Beta 13 for the OnePlus 5 and Open Beta 11 for the OnePlus 5T bring this and more new features to those willing to test less-than-stable software. Also included is a new UI and accent color customization. Here is the full changelog:

• A brand new user interface
• Supported accent color customization
  • Feel free to customize any color you like with a color wheel
