Oppo says that because this update “is not meant for mass consumption,” it won’t be offered as an over the air update. Instead, you’ll need to download the 914MB package and flash it manually, a process that will wipe your user data. As such, you should backup your info before installing the update.

While it’s kind of a bummer that the update requires a bit more effort to install than an OTA update, the major upgrade that the move to ColorOS 2.0.0i represents is likely worth the added effort for Find 7 and Find 7a owners.
