Android 12 Oxygen 12 updated for OnePlus 9 Pro has MAJOR BUGS & ISSUES!!!!!!

Okay, at this point, I thought, this new update from few days ago cannot be any more disappointing so…

I WIPED again before I did any update. If YouTube is causing any issue, I would wipe it. It sucks but at this point I've done 4-5 factory reset and feel like it's the only way to really tell if it's still broken or not.

48 hours later, it's good so far. I use YouTube daily (I'm a YouTuber also like...so many lol). I did disable most Google products other than the Maps, Gmail, etc. I haven't had any issues yet. Though one thing I haven't loaded & configured is Tasker. It's such a pain either way and just shocked IT TOOK THIS LONG for T-Mo to get this update to be I'll just say somewhat stable as it's obviously isn't for everyone.

I lost my phone icon & have no idea how to get it back 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

I started experiencing all the issues stated above on my OnePlus Pro 9 starting a month ago following my update including:

Screen goes black when watching videos on full screen (particularly YouTube)

Fingerprint stops working

Brightness defaults to max

Phone runs slow and very hot

Cannot use apps in split screen mode

TMobile replaced my phone when I notified them of the issues. New phone worked fine for a week until another OTA update broke everything again.

Like others stated the new security patch stabilizes most things with the exception of:

YouTube

Split screen mode still doesn't work in most apps

Will look to return the phone/exchange for something else.

Having run the phone now with the July security patch installed for half the day:

1. Everything seems quite stable until I fire up YouTube, then it all breaks down again with the various issues as documented in this thread.
2. This said, each time the phone is restarted, everything clears up until YouTube…

So some progress…?

I just got the new update and it is stable for me now as well. But I am also scared to open YouTube haha.

I got sick of all of this and converted to global firmware. Much happier. This is my first carrier branded device bought outright and its been a disaster till now, I am free from T-Mobile updates.

Okay, watching YouTube just broke everything once and again - fingerprint, brightness, etc. So I've restarted the phone and it seems to be running stable. I guess for the time being no YouTube but the trade off is a phone that functions?

Yeah, it's a crappy trade off for a $1k device (when I bought it last year). I've been a OnePlus user for 4 years, this is the first time I've been contemplating a Google 6 pro or .... Ugh hate to say it.... Samsung G series.... Smartphone for non techies.... But at least their os and updates are more consistent and stable..... I digress

Hey guys:

The long and the short is I've been experiencing all the aforementioned issues with my branded TMobile OnePlus 9 Pro just like everyone else on this thread - and I went so far as to perform a hard reset of my phone. But…

I just downloaded and installed the July security patch (version:LE2127_11_C.19) and it seems to have resolved all issues. Granted it's only been 15 minutes so far so fingers crossed. 

I got that new update LE2127_11_C.19 and breathed a sigh of relief..... Everything was working fine until I watched YouTube, then it broke again with the same issues.... I'm deducing that a bug triggers using YouTube rather it be the app itself or the video quality I have the app set at (best quality 1080p-1440) causes the aforementioned bugs surface again.... i.e. finger print reader goes blank and the screen flickers again ... It seems like there's going to be several os updates needed to fix this massive developer mess they've created. Additionally, Oppo owns one plus again, the user centric company is not so driven to give value and performance to it's users ...... Thoughts?

I think you just broke my heart (I haven't tested YouTube yet and now I'm afraid)...lol

I haven't used YouTube since I replied to your post and I'm constantly testing my finger print reader and screen brightness.... It's stable at the moment 🤞
