OPPO Find X9 Pro users can now install Android 17 Beta 2, with OPPO releasing the latest developer build based on Google’s Android 17 Beta 2 along with the latest Google Mobile Services package.
This release is limited to the Find X9 Pro. No other OPPO devices are supported at this stage.
OPPO says this build is meant for developers and advanced users. It is not a stable version and is not recommended for daily use. Users who are not familiar with flashing ROMs or handling beta software are advised to wait for the stable update.
Installing Android 17 Beta 2 will erase all data on the device. This includes apps, photos, music, and documents. OPPO requires users to back up everything before starting the process. The backup can be done through Settings, under Additional settings, then Back up and migrate, followed by Local backup. The backup file is saved in the device storage under the ColorOS backup folder. Users must copy this backup to another device, as it will also be deleted during installation if left on the phone.
There are several known issues in this beta version. OPPO Interconnection features and touch response may freeze or fail in some cases. System apps and settings may show display issues or visual bugs. Users may also face screen flickering, app crashes, or apps becoming unresponsive. Third-party app support is limited, and some apps may not work properly.
Since this build uses Google Mobile Services, some OPPO apps that overlap with Google apps may not be available after installation.
OPPO also warns that this is not a simple install process. There is a real risk of bricking the device if something goes wrong. Users should only proceed if they fully understand the steps.
