The latest update to the operating system of OnePlus phones has been available for a few days, but the company has advised not to install it after several users warned that it deletes the data hosted on the devices.

   Users who have updated their OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro phones to OxygenOS 11.0.1.1 since the third open beta have encountered a message asking them to restart the computer, after which they have detected the loss of all data saved on it.

   The company has reported through its official forums that it is aware of the software problem, and has urged users not to install the latest update while their team investigates and fixes the problem.

   Likewise, from OnePlus they suggest to users that they have prepared a backup copy of the key data of their phones, stored in the cloud, as well as make a complete copy through OnePlus Switch. For a better guarantee, it is recommended to also save it on a computer or a USB storage device.
