Learn to Install Samsung One UI Port on OnePlus 6

Do you dream of Samsung’s One UI for your OnePlus 6? This is possible now since ProtoDeVNan0 has brought a Samsung One UI port to the handset you own. You should know from the start that this Samsung One UI port is based on the stock Samsung Galaxy Note 9 firmware (N960USQU1CSAA). What are you about to get? Only amazing things, that’s for sure. The port includes new One UI icons, wallpapers, as well as a completely overhauled redesigned of the interface.

An in-built- dark theme is finally here too and that’s not all. This makes using the touchscreen display easier to use with one hand by bringing all the interactive elements towards the bottom. And Samsung features such as the Always on Display, Night Mode, Samsung apps, full-screen gestures, etc. all work on your OnePlus 6.

Before rushing into anything, you should also know that not everything works perfect. Users claim that many Samsung apps could be installed, but some crashed on launch. AOD Brightness is always 100% and NFC or Alert Slider don’t work. And like it or not, some interface items get covered up by the notch. Therefore, the current build is far from something that most people can use as a daily driver.

Are you still curious to give it a try? Then, use the steps below:

Get ready:

  • You need an unlocked bootloader;
  • The procedure cannot be completed without the TWRP recovery installed on OnePlus 6;
  • Make sure your OnePlus 6 is running on the Oxygen OS Open Beta 8 firmware;
  • You’ll need a Windows PC to run the flasher script;
  • Take a complete backup of your personal data, including the storage;
  • No less important, charge your handset.
