OnePlus releases another OxygenOS 12 update for Nord 2, but with older security patch

Last week, OnePlus rolled out an update to the Nord 2, but it was based on OxygenOS 11, although the company had already released OxygenOS 12, based on Android 12. Today, the company has released yet another update, which is based on OxygenOS 12.

The latest update, OxygenOS 12 C.05, is rolling out to OnePlus Nord 2 users in India who are on C.05 version. The update changelog includes a few bug fixes. Unlike the latest OxygenOS 11 version, this build doesn't include the June 2022 Android security patch.

Here's what the company has to say:

"For those wondering about the older security patch in this build when compared to the latest OxygenOS 11 version, this happened because the preparation of the first few OxygenOS 12 builds was a lengthier process when compared to the release of the existing OxygenOS 11. Since there are new features involved, the process takes longer," OnePlus wrote in a post on the community forums.

Below is the complete changelog for Nord 2 OxygenOS 12 C.05 update:
