Over the last few weeks, OnePlus has released the May 2022 security patches for several devices. Sadly, the OTA update for some of these devices has introduced some unwanted bugs. To address the known issues, OnePlus is now rolling out fresh updates for the OnePlus 8 series, OnePlus 8T, and the OnePlus 9R.
