OnePlus 5 Starts Receiving OxygenOS 4.5.5 Update With Wi-Fi, Voice Calling Improvements

Just a week after the OxygenOS 4.5.3 rollout, OnePlus has now rolled out yet another software update for its OnePlus 5(Review) users. The latest OxygenOS 4.5.5 update brings bug fixes, performance improvements, Wi-Fi connectivity improvements, voice calling improvements, and much more.

In between, OnePlus has also rolled out a quick OxygenOS 4.5.4 update for users in Netherlands fixing 4G network issues reported by users in that region. This latest OxygenOS 4.5.5 update should arrive via an OTA, and if you haven’t received a notification yet, then head over to Settings to check for an update manually.

Interestingly, the OxygenOS 4.5.5 update comes with the same old May security update. Nokia 6, Google Pixel, and Nexus devices are now receiving the July security patch. The size of the update for the OnePlus 5 users is at 59MB.

OxygenOS 4.5.5 brings improvements to Wi-Fi connectivity, something that was already fixed with the previous update. However, there might have been some fresh loopholes that needed plastering, and this update does just that. The update also notes that battery drain while voice recording is also much lesser now, voice calling has been improved, and that the vibration intensity while receiving a call has also been decreased. The entire changelog can be found below:

Optimisations:

• Further improvements to Wi-Fi connectivity
• Improvements for voice calling
• Voice recording now uses less battery
• Vibration intensity when receiving calls has been decreased

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed Wi-Fi signal consistently being displayed as weak
• Fixed certain apps not able to work under IPv6 network settings
• To restore connectivity to a Windows 10 PC, please turn off USB debugging prior to the upgrade
