How to Install H2OS?ย We already have several posts regarding the installation methods. If the OnePlus 3 device is rooted, then flash the full firmware using custom TWRP recovery. On the other contrary, for a non-rooted Oneplus device, do a local upgrade. Check out the complete H2OS installation procedure along with the Google Play Services and Gapps Installer from here. This is probably the easiest way to install. The H2OS does not contain any Google apps, products, or services. Install them manually.ย For multiple method tutorials, see the previous H2OS 3.0 installation method.
