OnePlus 5 Design

HIGHLIGHTS

  • OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T are receiving OxygenOS 5.1.4
  • The new update includes a 'Sleep Standby Optimisation' option
  • It also brings the July Android security patch


OnePlus has started rolling out OxygenOS 5.1.4 for the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T. The new 

 software update brings a 'Sleep Standby optimisation' option to improve battery life on the 

 smartphones that were launched last year.The new option is touted to enable the system to 

 identify your sleep pattern based on the usage of your phone. This helps to turn off the 

 network during certain gaps of inactivity to reduce power consumption and eventually give 

 you more juice of the existing battery. The Shenzhen-based company has also brought 

 the July Android security patch through the new update for the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T. 

 Likewise, there are improvements to enhance camera results and some bug fixes to uplift 

 the built-in gallery. The OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T earlier this month also received new 

 OxygenOS Open Beta versions that brought Project Treble support.
Among other new changes, the OxygenOS 5.1.4 update for the OnePlus 5 and OnePlus 5T 

 brings the Sleep Standby optimisation option. OnePlus says that once the advanced option 

 is turned on, it lets the system intelligently identifies your sleep pattern based on your 

 device's usage and then turn off network during specific periods of inactivity. This helps to 

 reduce standby power consumption and improve battery life to an extent. While turning off 

 the network may affect connectivity for a short while, the company claims that the phone 

 gets out of Sleep Standby optimisation before you wake up. "The phone will automatically 

 cancel any network restrictions and get the phone out of Sleep Standby just before you 

 wake up so that you won't miss any notifications such as news updates, emails etc," the 

 company said in a forum post while announcing the new OxygenOS update.
After you've successfully installed the OxygenOS 5.1.4 update on your OnePlus 5 or 

 OnePlus 5T, you can enable the Sleep Standby optimisation by going 

 to Settings > Battery > Battery optimisationand then selecting Advanced 

 optimisation by tapping the three dots from the top-right corner of the screen.
In addition to the new Sleep Standby optimisation, the new OxygenOS version brings the 

 July Android security patch. The update also improves photo clarity of the default Camera 

 app to enhance your memories. Further, there is a group messaging option within the 

 preloaded Messaging app and general bug fixes for the Gallery.
Similar to previous OxygenOS versions, the latest software update for the OnePlus 5 and 

 OnePlus 5T is rolling out as an incremental rollout. This means it may take some time to 

 reach your device. OnePlus states that the update will randomly be pushed out to a "limited 

 number" of devices globally.
You can check the avilability of the OxygenOS 5.1.4 update on your OnePlus 5 or OnePlus 

 5T by going to Settings > System updates and then tapping the Check for Updates button 

 from the bottom-right of your screen.
