Earlier this week, OnePlus finally released the OnePlus 5 smartphone. It has also published the sources needed to develop for it, so it is only a matter of time before developers get on board.

Developers didn’t have to wait long to create a working recovery as XDA Senior Member provided a testing version of TWRP 3.1.1. By flashing a Magisk or SuperSU ZIP file, you should successfully obtain root access. Head over to the thread for details or simply grab the recovery image. Just remember to unlock your bootloader first.
