The popular OnePlus 6T smartphone is making headlines for its ability to run the open-source OpenHarmony operating system. Recent progress in flashing the device has enabled it to support both Android 13 and OpenHarmony 4.0 in a dual-boot configuration. The A slot runs Android 13, while the B slot runs OpenHarmony 4.0, and users can switch between the two through recovery mode.
A developer named @AlgoIdeas has demonstrated that the OnePlus 6T can run OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta 5 with a Linux 6.1 kernel. The touch screen is fully functional, and the GPU can be used for acceleration.
The porting of the OpenHarmony 4.0 operating system onto the OnePlus 6T is done by using OpenHarmony 3.2 Beta 5 as the basis for the project. The kernel is based on Linux 6.1 and it also supports OpenHarmony’s mainline 5.10 kernel version. This new development means that OnePlus 6T can now run on both the Android and OpenHarmony operating systems.
The OnePlus 6T is powered by a Snapdragon 845 processor and features a 6.41-inch AMOLED water drop screen with a resolution of 1080P, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 6. It also boasts an under-screen fingerprint sensor and a 3700 mAh battery. During the launch, OnePlus 6T came with Android 9.0 (Pie) out of the box with OxygenOS 9.0 on top.
The smartphone features a dual-camera setup with a 16MP primary camera and a 20MP secondary camera, both equipped with Sony IMX sensors, enabling users to capture stunning photos and videos with 4K resolution at 60 fps. The smartphone also boasts a 16MP front-facing camera with a Sony IMX 371 sensor, providing crisp and clear selfies.
