Soon after the update was released, however, OnePlus 5 and 5T users started complaining about several issues with the update, including disappointing battery life and broken EIS.
Nearly six months later, the company has now started rolling out a new OxygenOS 10 update to fix all the major issues affecting the first build (via XDA Developers). According to the official changelog for the OxygenOS 10.0.1 update, it fixes the abnormal call recording and deactivated alarm issues, brings back Electronic Image Stabilization, and adds the September 2020 Android security patch to the OnePlus 5 and 5T. Currently, the update appears to be rolling out only to the OnePlus 5. OnePlus says it will begin pushing the update to the OnePlus 5T "soon"
