As the latest blog released by CM says it will not update the OPO phones in india so still OPO worth a buy? As I was going to buy for the sake of official CM roms. But I am kinda disappointed with this.
Planning to cancel my order before it's shipped

You'll still be able to put CM on the device, just unlock the bootloader.

Hey guys
Just purchased a brand new One Plus One. It had bloatware on it for some reason (Texas Poker game). When I try to do the OTA update, it has an assert fail message and it doesnt seem to catch network. Please help me? How can I update to the latest version without voiding warranty?
Thank you so much.

Where did you buy it? I'm guessing it's the Chinese version, does it have Cyanogen branding on the back? You're best off starting from scratch, unlocking the bootloader and flashing the stock images with fastboot to make sure it's all kosher.

Not really, but that would explain the bloat. Check out my guide thread:

The most stable Lollipop ROM will most likely be the official lollipop ROM (CM12S), which is meant to be released next month. In order to take that update you first need to be on CM11S though, and it's likely that you're not on CM11S if you have the Chinese model. Go into Settings/About Phone and tell me what it says under Cyanogenmod Version.

You're on CM11S so when the update comes you can take it. Asking which ROM is most stable never really works out, you'll get a bunch of people all with their own opinion contradicting each other. Just find one you think you'll like by checking the features in the OP, and read the last ten pages or so to see what bugs are being reported. Just keep in mind that a lot of bugs are caused by user error.

Yes, you can root the stock ROM and still receive OTA updates. You need an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery to flash root but that's ok because you'll still get OTA with those as well.

Hey Guys, I just bought the 64GB OPO from Amazon India. As per the latest CM fiasco, Indian users aren't supposed to get official upgrade to CM12s in India. But, can I manually install CM12 (not CM12s) on my Indian OPO? Will that cause any problems?
There is no problem, you can still update to CM12s because pepper are still continuing to receive OTA updates. There should be no issues, you can install a VPN and just change location in order to receive the OTA even for 12s.
And yes you can install CM12 for the opo, I've been running on cm12 on my opo since December, there are a ton of cm12 based ROMs in the development section, or you can choose to use the official nightlies from CM, but these are usually buggy.
It will not cause any problem, at the most if you screw up really bad, you can end up soft bricking the device, but it can still be fixed.
You can indeed flash CM12 onto your device, and you can flash CM12S onto your device when it's released. You can flash any OnePlus One ROM. Check out my guide thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2839471
Follow sections 1, 2, 3, and 5 to get CM12 (or any ROM) onto your phone. And make sure you make a backup of your EFS partition by following section 10 too.
Please note: unlocking the bootloader erases all user data from the phone so it's best to do this before you really start using the device.

I was just wondering whether CM inc. is really implementing the SAR based software update blocking for Indian Devices. I do know that we can flash different roms such as slimLP, omni etc. but was just wondering whether cm12 can be flashed or not. Thanks for clarifying. Btw, oxygenOS will be released tommorrow right? I will need to unlock bootloader to and install twrp to flash oxygenOS, so I guess I should keep my device ready

Haha yes, I'm waiting for the same, but I'll be switching back to cm12 after a few days of oxygenOS; really gotten used to this now, especially with the @temasek custom rom compiled by @katinatez and @ak kernel

Yup, read that after flashing official Cm12 :/
Is there a thread or website where zip files of official Cm11s updates are posted? Would bookmark so that I can just flash cm12s over current cm12 build?

Buddy, all those builds are cm12 builds. I was talking about CM12s
CM 12S is still not yet out... hence there will be no open download links available.

You won't be able to flash CM12S over the top of CM12, just like you can't flash CM11S over CM11.

A ZIO flashable is already available for CM12S
Link HERE
Hope this helps.
