OnePlus Releases 911 Reboot Fix to OnePlus 5 Users

Posted by at 12:17 pm on July 20, 2017

OnePlus has created a patch for a bug that impacted the OnePlus 5 handset’s ability to call 911.

Some OnePlus 5 owners reported that calling 911 forced their handset to reboot, thus ending the in-progress 911 call. This has obvious safety implications. OnePlus worked directly with those impacted by the issue to develop a software fix to resolve the problem.

“We have begun rolling out the software update. Timing may vary by region. We encourage OnePlus 5 users to download the update. If users haven’t received a notification, check for the update by going to ‘Settings’ > ‘System Updates’,” said the company in a post to user forums.

The OnePlus 5, the company’s flagship handset, has been on sale since last month.
