Although the OnePlus 9 family was the first series from the company to receive the OxygenOS 12 update, the OnePlus 9RT was left out for some reason. So, while OnePlus has rolled out a couple of OxygenOS 11 updates for it over the last few months, owners of the OnePlus 9RT haven’t had the opportunity to get a taste of Android 12, unless they opt for the custom ROM route. That changes now, though, as OnePlus has finally started offering the first OxygenOS 12 Open Beta build for the device, giving users the option to test new features before they roll out with a stable Android 12 update.
As per a recent post on the OnePlus Community forums, the first OxygenOS 12 Open Beta release for the OnePlus 9RT is now available for download. The underlying build number is C.03, and the Android security patch level is June 2022. The release includes a handful of new features and several under-the-hood changes.

Keep in mind that this is still beta software, and it’s not necessarily worth installing on your daily driver just yet. If you install the Open Beta build, you will not be able to get an OTA to switch to a stable build. OnePlus also recommends making a full system backup before proceeding, as while the update does not wipe your phone, there’s always the potential for something to go wrong.
Download OxygenOS 12 Open Beta 1 for the OnePlus 9RT
Before installing the beta software, ensure that your device has a minimum of 30% battery and 4GB of available storage space. Furthermore, the device must be on OxygenOS 11’s A.08 build. The local update APK needs to be separately downloaded and installed, otherwise you can’t sideload the release.
