Android Open Source Project (AOSP) was recently tweaked for the sixth version of the Android software for the OnePlus One.
Android Marshmallow was released a couple of weeks ago. The AOSP was done to make this software compatible with OnePlus One, which is yet to receive any official statement about getting the original upgrade. This will enable the owners of this device to flash the ROM and install this update.
Below are the steps which will help the users to install the AOSP version of Android Marshmallow in their OnePlus One device, according to Team Android:
Step 1: Download the AOSP Version 6.0 Marshmallow to the PC.
Step 2: Connect the OnePlus One to the PC after download.
Step 3: Put the AOSP 6.0 Marshmallow custom ROM in the storage memory on OnePlus One.
Step 4: Switch off the device and then disconnect it from the PC
Step 5: Reboot the device in the Recovery mode.
Step 6: Clear the phone's cache memory and do a factory reset.
Step 7: Unzip the zip file into the phone's memory.
Step 8: Confirm the flashing of ROM.
Step 9: It will take a few minutes to complete.
Step 10: The device is ready to use.
The device owners must keep the following things in their mind before installing this custom ROM, according to XDA Forum:
- Only Bakon models can be flashed with this update. If the users try it for any other model, the device may be bricked.
- The device must be rooted.
- Make sure to take a complete back up of the entire data in the device, as it will be wiped off after the flashing is completed.
- Make sure that there is enough free memory in the device to fit this upgrade.
