Hi guys,
I hope all of you are fine, now after more than one year of usage of OPPO R7Plusf which was really amazing, it seems like OPPO has no plans to upgrade our phones, when I purchased my device a ColorOS version 2.0 was installed already and recently, it was upgraded to ColorOS version 2.1.0i (based on 5.1.1 Android Lollipop). Nowadays, all of us heard about the Nougat upgrade when we still dreaming with Marshmallow!!
So please, any suggestions for a custom ROM (tested) to upgrade my OPPO phone to Nougat version with no usual known errors or bugs. I will be grateful.
Notice: I contacted both customer support (the local one and the international) and I received the usual formal disappointed answer: "we will inform you when the update is available", which I think it will not be.
So thanks
Anybody here!?
Depends what you like
I currently use Resurrection remix on mine however there are some issues with apps force closing is my main one. Lineage OS also had issues for me with bluetooth causing the phone the reboot over and over. CM 13 was the best but I can't find any download links for it any more (rip CM) I think they both have updates coming outside but I recommend trying some out and then making a decision. Also if your phone is on one of the latest oppo updates (one of the 2016 updates) you'll have to downgrade to a 2015 software as they locked the bootloader so you won't be able to root! It's easy to do just find an old firmware from the internet (I would post links but I can't, also has to be a 2015 one) turn off the phone and turn it back on whilst holding down the volume down button and then go install and install the old firmware and then follow any guides on the internet for installing custom ROMs
Hope this helped

Lol, yeah. There is not much traffic here, but the R7Plusf is still awesome and up to date. Mainly due to good people at LineageOS keeping the device fresh.
I don't have serious issues with AICP on Nougat. No reboots. It is build "on top of" LineageOS, but have more features plus a working theming system. Latest build uploaded today.
Try RR, AICP and LineageOS and see what you like. Wait with Lineage untill the next release (current is Feb 14), if you want to avoid reboots.

So, you recommend the CM13 in case it's available?
And what's the cons and pros?

Sure I will try one of your recommendations, but all I was afraid of was the disappointed bugs after updat such as battery drain, camera errors, wifi issues ... etc. Of course my ColorOS became boring to me, but still stable with no errors
Any pros or cons for those above I will be great full

Battery drain on MM has improved compared to Lollipop and N has improved over MM. With 4 email accounts running (on Aqua Mail) and Location on "High accuracy", Viber messenger and other stuff running, I had not much drain on AICP 11 (MM). Drain during night with Location on "Device" was 0.5% per hour. On MM and especially N, you have many ways in settings you can fine tune battery drain. Many apps are automatically shut down when not in use. You can decide which to limit and which to keep running when phone is off. Without extra apps (as ColorOS has), you can limit what apps are allowed to do and see. All built into the system.
A final word on drain: With Googles and others services running all the time, tracking everything you do, some drain is expected. Luckily this can be turned off by you
The number one reason to upgrade in these hacker friendly times: N is updated with much improved security. Updated every month with the latest security patches.
For me, AICP 11 is error free. The latest MM builds are complete in features and practically error free. Features are still being merged one at the time on N, but is useable as is now with only some minor issues.
I have not tried RR. My guess is that it has more features than AICP, but also more issues.
Lineage is the mother of all, I expect it to be stable with a good set of features.
All the N builds have more or less issues with speaker-phone. It may or may not bother you (or the person in the other end). MM was not affected as much as N, for some unknown reason.
I use Resurrection Rom and very happy with this rom!

Rana, first I'm sure you have been a good phone user and your Oppo R7 plus is upto date, unfortunately this is a problem. So first thing you need to do (Assuming you have unbricked your phone) is find a older version of the genuine R7+ firmware. Preferably some time between 2015- mid2016. The reason for this is OPPO locked the bootloader on later versions, these earlier versions are what the autoroot tool was designed to work on. Once you have this firmware, flash through recovery (provided you still have genuine OPPO recovery), if not you also need to flash this. Once you have the older firmware on your phone you should be able to proceed as usual steps to install lineage on your phone using typical walkthroughs.
what to do next?

unlock bootloader still stuck..
Hi Guys..
First i don't know if i am posting this in right thread or not... but I need help... after lots of search i couldn't find anything to unlock my oppo R7 plus running r7plusEx_11_160922 on color os 2.1.o1 android 5.1.1.. As per my study the first thing I need to do it unlock bootloader, then do TWRP, then install any custom rom. (Please correct me if m wrong). Now please tell me how can i unlock my bootloader when I dont have access to fastboot by pressing power and Volume + key. Is there some other way. I have also tried the adb version 1.4.3 to get to the fastboot mode but it restarts my mobile to lock screen.

Download this rom https://www.dropbox.com/s/xmh77xyinz2iero/R7plusfEX_11_OTA_012_all_201512251816.zip?dl=0. Place it in your internal drive and flash it. It will install the ColorOS with an unlockable bootloader.
Even I'm facing the same issue. There are no such methods available on internet. I have ended bricking phone several times. Because since the last update oppo had limited tho access to bootloader. And the phone OPPO r7 plus f is quite old now so there's no people dealing with the issue. The only methods remain is to downgrade the firmware and repay the process again. Better look for some firmware version around mid 2015-2016early. I read somewhere that has access to bootloader. I haven't tried it personally but I hope the methods will work. Please let me know whatever the result is..
need your help badly

hi all! actually i am having a strange problem with my j700h mtk6572 china device.the problem appeared first when i tried to install custom rom on my china device which failed giving me a broken android device.what next was that i flashed a wrong rom with sp flash tool and then the condition got even worse that from then onward i wasnt able to even boot..so i kept struggling to find the exact rom for my android..
when i was failed completely i decided to go to the mobile phone shopfrom there i bought an exact simmilar china phone and readback its rom with sp flash tool and mtk droid tool and when i flashed this rom the sp flashed tool started to flash it (this indicated it is the compatible rom because sp flash tool didnt found an issue).after when the phone booted up,...
strange boot scenarios after flash
the phone shows nothing on screen,its completely pitch black.
i can hear the boot sounds.
power key and volume keys are responding
while chaarging the flash led glows
some additional info about my device
the back flap removed shows me behind the batter the following specs
model_ sm j700h/ds
fcc id_ a3lsmj700h
ssn_ j700h/dsgsmh
rated 3.8v 2600mA
(there is a sticker of some farooq mobile, may be the distributor or developer.)
internel features
i remember once i opened the about section that showed itself j700f
the internel memory was 16gb
before by first hard reset the seemed to be android lollipop but after first hard reset onward the phone had a kitkat lock screen.
i even checked some recovery files manually that shows some files etc indicating sm-g530f
.
the nutshell problem
keeping all the scenarios in mind a came to the conclusion that nothing is wrong with rom because sp flash allowed it.
the issue is not confined to some screen attachments or driver because it dont even connect to my pc(just gives some two unformated partitions dissapear and reappear when i connect with pc using my cable).
i request you all if there is some official or developer who knows about china devices to please cooporate, as i am dead tired with this condition.and i made xda id just to post this thread...
any help will be highly appreciated.

Hello
On the sticker it shows it as j700h and inside the device it's j700f?
Hard reset doesn't downgrade the frimware
And you said some tools indicate IRS g530f?

@HoPe thanks for replying.
You got a point here,I am starting to ponder over it..actually about smg530f I am not sure,I don't remember exactly.what I am sure of is that I flashed the exact ROM and still its not working, and secondly that the lock screen style turned to KitKat 4.4 style when I did factory reset..I wanna know that, is there any thing apart from ROM files that I need to flash, like display drivers,imei etc..can I do a hardware replacement of emmc.
What partitions loads the hardware components like display.sdcard etc.
Any help is appreciated in advance..

Hello, so far i don't think this device is reversible since it seems to be a rebuilt device -modifed-, the hardwares and imei are changed. this explains why the black screen popped, better buy a new device so far or maybe

If it says J700H on the sticker(I'm assuming you mean the sticker behind the battery), but says J700F in system settings. That could be for a few reasons but it more than likely started out originally as J700H. Here are the possible reasons the numbers aren't matching:
1) the device is a J700H but has been flashed with J700F firmware.
2) The device was originally a J700H but now has a J700F motherboard for whatever reason.
3) The device could have originally been a J700F but has had the casing replaced with the casing from a J700H.
One way to know for sure is to open the device and inspect the motherboard for the model number that is stamped on it.
Edit: Nevermind, you don't actually have a device that is anything, it's not a J700H or a J700F. You have a cloned(fake) device.
There are no stock firmwares for clones that you can just download and flash. The cloned devices have firmware that has been hacked together from other devices, they don't actually have firmware that is their own.
I wouldn't waste my time on this cheap fake want-to-be Samsung crap. You're going to end up chasing your tail trying to manually put a firmware together for the device. Rest assured, you're gonna have to build it yourself if that's what you need, you probably won't find anything that can be flashed as is without making some modifications.
Next time, don't buy a cloned device, they aren't worth it, I don't care if they only cost $2, it still isn't worth it.
If you want a decent device then go buy one, don't buy a device that is pretending to be a decent device. When you try to be cheap, you get EXACTLY what you pay for. Stop robbing yourself.

This must be because the IMEI that you have is originally from a i9500 S4 then it was written onto the device you have because it either had no IMEI or it did have an IMEI but was blacklisted or was not a valid IMEI for whatever reason.

It wouldn't surprise me if the two devices you had are completely different at the hardware level, they probably don't have the same components so they can't use the same firmware.
My partner from Chinese 7to forum had made TWRP adaption for Nokia 5, 6 and 8. Now it's time to find out how to install custom recovery and root Nokia 7.
To achieve that, I need the official firmware of Nokia 7 TA-1041.
That's it. It will benefit a lot for both XDA and Chinese Android communities.
Current version is 00CN_0_64C I think.
Thanks a lot!
UPDATE: I got the Nokia 7 firmware, filename is C1N-0430-0-00CN-B05.rar. But I won't release it until @blackpanther0582 or @Quixote78 got Nokia 2 and 7 firmware.
UPDATE IN Mar 12th 2018 (UTC+8): I released this firmware. You can find it from https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-7/development/nokia-7-stock-firmware-t3762166
Can you help me with this firmware bro

I got this firmware from local Nokia Service center where I sent a bricked Nokia 6 to them.
To protect the employee who gave me the firmware, I won't release it immediately.

That's sweet of you. I've just got my Nokia 7 and I might just brick it while playing with it. So, can I at least stay assured that if something wrong happens, you'll privately provide me with the firmware? ?
Phone won't boot
Some help would be fantastic and greatly appreciated. I received the phone brand new just yesterday and have turned it on to set it up but it will not go past the "Powered by Android" screen. I have tried so many times to enter reset menu to factory restore it but it is not possible. I think my only option left is to somehow flash the phone with the original firmware but as I've never used a newer Nokia before, I am unsure of that too. I contacted Nokia online support who refuse to help me because the phone is exclusive to China and I am based in Australia. I feel like I have been scammed with a brand new phone that I can not use.
asking for rom to unbrick Nokia TA 1041
Hello everyone.
I would like to know if you have the rom and firmware of TA 1041 CCN 4GB ram.
I bought it on AliExpress.
After 2 hours of using it , it stopped booting normally.
The phone stays on the Nokia screen.
I cannot turn it off!
When trying to hook it to the PC , the Android driver is there , but their no device detected!
I wonder if some part of the boot chips are dead?
Can someone help him please?
Best regards

When trying to hook it to the PC , the Android driver is there , but their no device detected!
I wonder if some part of the boot chips are dead?
Can someone help him please?
Best regards

Some help would be fantastic and greatly appreciated. I received the phone brand new just yesterday and have turned it on to set it up but it will not go past the "Powered by Android" screen. I have tried so many times to enter reset menu to factory restore it but it is not possible. I think my only option left is to somehow flash the phone with the original firmware but as I've never used a newer Nokia before, I am unsure of that too. I contacted Nokia online support who refuse to help me because the phone is exclusive to China and I am based in Australia. I feel like I have been scammed with a brand new phone that I can not use.

The same problem with "Powered by Android", only I'm from Belarus. Waiting for an answer from support.
Any update on this?
Got this phone recently from china (as it is unavailable yet in my country), its great but has a ton of software issues: setup screen constantly freezing, google play fires errors faster then a tommy gun, widgets and apps crashing, etc...
Really would like to be able to flash a clean rom.
Cheers!
I sent my phone back and going to claim a refund. I really want the phone because it has the specs that I want, the size that I want, the build quality that I want, and the look that I want. But it seems there is a software issue that means it doesn't function correctly out of China.

I have the same problem as you, the phone hangs on download mode after I reboot or power down consecutively 5 to 6 times after flashing the rom.
I cannot force flash the ROM, with OST LA, it hangs on "hwcfg" (C1N-0-0430-hwcfg.img) after 117 seconds of attempting to flash.
Google Play Store has been flashed in the original firmware, it is buggy as it doesnt update any application.
I think google applications are causing the phone to hang out and to bug.
I cannot seem to find a clean rom for this phone!

My biggest problem is updating/installing apps, as you said. I'm getting error 404 and no solutions from webs fix it. A funny related issue is that the phone is not showing up in the web version of Google Play (when you do a remote install). At least I think these issues are related.
Did you experience anything similar?

Yes I have experienced the same thing.
I have asked the reseller on Aliexpress for the original firmware.
I am waiting for his answer ...
What concerns me , I cannot find ANY ROM available for this Nokia 7 and the bootloader is locked and cannot be unlocked on fastboot.
I hope one day a developer on xda could give us a clean ROM+GAPPS, with a TWRP recovery.
Support for the firmware is not responding. The theme on community.phones.nokia.com/support/discussions constantly removes.
Any update?
Mine got stuck in "Powered by Android"

That's the version I'm have on my device. Want to be able to recover from my experiments. Thanks.
i have no idea what RUU is (it's been too long since the last time I have an HTC phone), but I am guessing it's some sort of a ROM package for HTC devices.
I bought the U11+ from a vendor in Asia, but I can't seem to find the originating country where the phone was sold. I'm unsure if it's a Hong Kong model, or European model. But inside the box, the power adapter that came with the phone is a type C (commonly used in Europe). On the box, it seems the model 2Q4D100.
Now my actual question is, how can I update my phone to the newest ROM because my phone is currently running version 1.10.400.23 (October Security Patch)? Also, if possible, I'd like to keep the phone as stock as possible, root and unlocking bootloader or s-off isn't something that I am after.

i think your device europe model update in setting or dowlond here 1.24.401.2 ru version and update on pc
What software do I use to update on the PC?
Thanks for your response.
EDIT: answering my own question
If your phone is untampered/unrooted, with its bootloader still locked (e.g., you haven't done anything to modify your phone); then IF you manage to find the correct RUU file that matches your phone's CID/MID (CountryID? ModelID?):
1. Rename the RUU file to correspond with your device's model type (e.g. 2Q4DIMG.zip)
2. Find a MicroSD card, and place the RUU file into the root of that MicroSD Card. Insert the MicroSD card into the phone. You need to use a MicroSD card, otherwise the next step won't work.
3. Boot into Download Mode, by pressing and holding down the 'Vol Down + Power Key while the device is turned-off. Let go of the keys as soon as you feel the device vibrates
4. Once your device successfully boots into Download Mode, your device will ask if you'd like to flash the RUU file. Proceed by pressing the Vol Up key.
5. If your RUU file matches your device's CID/MID, then Download Mode will proceed with the installation.
6. ????
7. Profit?

1.24 only OTA'ed in the last few days, so he was probably on the latest on 1.23.
Can always RUU to 1.23 and OTA up to 1.24, so not too massive if you cant find an RUU for 1.24 yet. I havent seen 1.24.709.7 RUU floating around yet.
Hi guys, i am planning on buying the U+ here from China/Beijing, as you know devices here don't come with Google play store and Google stock apps installed. I am wondering since i never owned an HTC phone before, is it possible to flash another country or region rom for ex: HK that has all Google apps and do you recommend me buying this phone?, any further advice or tips would be much appreciated.
I am planning to sell my Iphone 8+ and get the U+ instead.
Thanks in advance.

I have the device for almost 3 weeks now... I'm absolutely happy with it... Don't believe in many of the reviews out there (YouTube etc.)... There are many reviews saying the screen is too dark... That is absolutely not true! I've had the HTC 10 before and while having both devices side by side with same setting, the u11+ indeed looks much darker, but it seems, the lightsensor is much better! In sunlight the u11+ is much better readable than the 10 is... And I'm using just 25% brightness outside in automode and on the 10 I have to use 50+% to be able to read something on the display. What I try to say is, that many reviewers are doing device checks indoor... You don't need your device to be a supertrouper indoors to be clear. So the reviews are dumb. The materials used are absolutely great, the manufacturing is perfect!
So for you question about the Google apps... AFAIK you can download every Google app and install it via playstore. To get playstore itself, check apkmirror.com
Theoretical you can flash other Roms... Practically atm its not possible, cause there aren't any custom roms around yet. It's possible to open bootloader via htcdev site and you can flash custom recovery and root your device. So if you want to flash a Rom from a different region I guess you first need to get s-off, which is also not available now. But with the option to download and install all Google apps (if that's everything you need) from apk mirror I doubt you need to do manipulate anything in the device and just use it out of the box getting all your stuff you need from the web and install it.

Thank you very much for the advice, see the problem with phones specific to china they don't come with Google services framework and Google Account apks pre built, which are essential for some Google apps to work properly or you would get the force close issues which I see alot of users from China and outside are complaining about after installing manually both apks mentioned and other Google apps on the U11+.
I used to own a Huawei P8 (Great device) but i didn't buy it from China it came with Google apps and wasn't facing the issue I am inquiring about. The point I want to make is that the downfall of that device and these Chinese brands is the updates frequency and lack of developer/rom support.
What I am afraid of with this device besides the updates frequency, lack of developer/rom support is not being able to flash stock roms with Google apps pre built. All of these are red flags to not buy and enjoy this nice device which is a shame.
I think it would be a better decision to stick with the iphone 8+ for now because it retains a better second hand value compared to the 11U+ if i decide to buy it. My true device goal is a 2018 device with better looks/specs and support.
Thanks again.

Hi, i have an F2 Pro.
My phone had a charging flex problem (it was due to the charging flex not properly connected and needing aditional physical pressure.) So, after watching some tutorials on youtube, i figured how to fix the issue but i had to buy the glue for the back cover first. So meanwhile i just pressed and/or twisted the bottom of my phone and then it would charge until some soft fall would cause the flex to disconnect internally again.
After a failed attemp to open the back cover i shattered it, so had to buy a new one on aliexpress and wait for it to arrive.
Cue some days after, im using the phone in my car and when the phone does feedback (vibration on gestures) it was also making a weird noise from the speaker which happened as the same time as the vibration motor worked. (this issue happened a lot and usually a restart fixed this. So i restarted my phone and it got stuck on MIUI logo.
Since then i've tried to reset/wipe on the stock bootloader (i never modified rom/recovery/bootloader).
So since my phone is locked AND (apparently) bricked, i have searched through XDA and similar places and all info on phones stuck on boot logo seem to require some custom recovery solution or flashing again. So i resorted to making my own thread (in hope that some people will read and help me) because i can't figure out what to do or how to fix my phone.
Summary:
-My bootloader is locked, stock rom MIUI 12.
-Boot gets stuck on MIUI logo
-Tried to use MiFlash tool but doesn't work on locked phone.
-Searched for solutions but all require custom recovery usage.

I tried but miflash gives an error about the device being locked. I googled that and tried to put it in EDL Mode but i've had no success so far, got several different errors, probably related to not finding the correct ROM.

Trying this right now, but i don't think i have the right ROM, need to charge my phone a bit because it's kicking me out of mi assistant mode and asking for charger.
Does this require "normal" rom or fastboot rom?

Now something else messed up The phone charges but there's no data going through. My pc (or any software) doesn't detect the phone in either MIAssistant or fastboot mode.
Guess i don't have the skills, knowledge, or tools to troubleshoot the usb port because i don't even know if the usb port has more than one flex, because i had a problem on the over-the-battery flex that needed more pressure on both ends to not have trouble charging the phone. (my RN8T is detected just fine by the pc.) So i got a nice cute paperweight.

the K30 pro was released 10 months ago and the poco f2 pro 8 months ago.
could be released earlier elsewhere but it's not been a year .
And on the packaging which version is this?
Looks like M2004J11G
I ask this because some vendors install global versions on Chinese phones and in case your pc redetects it, the version to flash will be different.

Legal warranty (required) is only 3 months in my country, some stores (and for some products) give you a 1 year warranty, the store where i bought my phone only offers the 3-month legal warranty.
Meanwhile my redmi note 8t fell in a fkin cup of water, fell off two floors (breaking the camera crystal), went through my partner's hands and still hasn't given up on me.

does this seem ok to you? Since the damage could either be on the flex or the board... i thought why not buy both, im already losing a lot of money if i can't fix the phone so getting these two pieces for 40usd seems fine.
Also, i already tried every type-c cable in my home, as well as all usb ports on two computers, the problem is definitely phone-related.
