Google has released the Android Q Beta recently during its last keynote with the support to some non-Google devices. This new Android Q Beta has been released for OnePlus 6 and 6T which is an open beta and anyone can install it on their smartphone. I won’t recommend you to install this beta on your primary smartphone because the build is not completely stable. But if you already installed it on your OnePlus 6 or 6T and want to revert back to the Android 9 Pie. Here is a little step by step guide which can help you do that.

Prerequisites

  • The smartphone should have at least 40 percent battery or you can keep the phone connected to the wall charger during the process.
  • Make sure to create a backup of all your important data because the installation will wipe the system.
  • Download the correct ROM package according to your device. OnePlus 6 and 6T both have different ROM packages.
  • The first boot may take some time so do not panic and let the phone boot, it may take up to 5 minutes.

Steps to Revert back to Android 9 Pie

  1. Download the latest ROM package on your phone; OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 6T.
  2. Go to Settings > System > System Updates and tap on the settings on the top right corner.
