Download OxygenOS 4.5.3 OTA for OnePlus 5: OnePlus once again surprised us with another quick update in terms of OxygenOS 4.5.3. Yesterday I had covered the OxygenOS 4.5.2 OTA update and this newest update brings some more stability improvements and bug fixes. This tutorial helps you manually update OnePlus 5 to the latest OxygenOS 4.5.3 firmware using the stock recovery.
