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.

Hi guys,
what you think about possibility of an OTA for CM11S, to upgrade Android version to 4.4.4 ?
Do you think it will be?
Regards.

Being honest I'm surprised it wasn't launched on 4.4.4 so I'd imagine we'll get there eventually

Yes, that's it....i'm surprised too!!
That's why i'm asking you guys!!
Android 4.4.4 exists for a long time, and i don't understand why CM11S don´t have it, even CM11 for OnePlus works in Android 4.4.4, but CM11S(dedicated ROM) not.
Thank you, for your reply!
We all are waiting for next CM11S OTA Update....
They announced another update for this week or next

I haven't receive it yet, clarify me, because the 11s it's on 4.4.2 right ?
Anyone play with nightlies 4.4.4 ?? They works well ? no major bugs at all ? what functions you lost from 11s ?
sorry for the too many questions

Still not OTA update for Android 4.4.4....that's what we are talking about...
But it seems it is on it's way to get it.
About normal CM 11 nightlys, yes, already rolls with Android 4.4.4, but for sure you lose some features dedicated to OnePlus One, developed in CM11S, like Camera features.
So, i think it's better to wait for new CM11S OTA.

Lets be honest your asking in xda has anyone play with nightlies... come on now 95% of the people in here are running a custom rom. Waiting for a company to update your phone when there are capable developers here making your phone better to me is a waste of time. Root and upgrade your phone at your leisure and enjoy. Here is the changelog from 4.4.3 and 4.4.4
whatever is lost from 11S can be obtained just by searching this forum and nightlies of course will have more upldated options

Camera, lockscreen and kernel from CM11S can all be implemented back into nightlies
as far as version 4.4.4 of android is an openssl fix which is already present in cm11s. its nothing but a number at this point. but there will be an ota update soon. my guess is by wednesday if they keep doing updates on a monthly schedule.

Yes it can and I stated that on the page earlier. Also its only an apk not a big deal to try and see if it works. I use it on every rom that I have flashed in here including CM11
More than anything, they need to merge the latest CM M9 improvements into this next OTA. I don't even know if the current software is based on M8 or not.

No and this information is out there may I suggest some research. Please research before rooting as well so you know what you are getting into and know all your risks.
Plus any OTA will have a zip in the forum anyways. Plus they are on 4.4.2 we are all on 4.4.4 with Android L rom in the works. Be ahead of the curve root your phone and flash new CM
We need to know the status about the android lollipop, the google play edition is not enough, though the only variant which received or started receiving android lollipop is XT1033, if anyone knows what is the current status, please confirm. And one last thing why there is no roms developed in AOSP not CM as CM is currently buggy, and not stable.

Your questions have been asked and answered already throughout the forums; besides, this is the wrong section. But anyways, XT1033 got 5.0.0 soak test and it looks like it's getting 5.0.1 official OTA as we speak. GPe got 5.0.1 official OTA aswell. You can install both of these firmwares on your phone if you do not like AOSP roms; these, to start, are not "buggy", they are almost as stable as the official. And if they have bugs it is because we don't have moto's official lollipop source yet, and most ROMs just use CMs source without modifying it, and it hasn't been updated in a while now.

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! So I have a few questions about the oneplus one here, I'm checking for a friend and I always had a nexus where matching firmware doesn't really matter much. So here they are.
1) What happens if you have the wrong firmware for a rom? Softbrick? Hardbrick? Nothing at all?
2) For a Nougat rom, what firmware do you use? Since this phone hasn't got an official firmware update for Nougat yet.
3) Is there a special recovery here on XDA that can flash all roms? (there was one for the oneplus two) or is TWRP good for all roms?
What confuses me the most about oneplus devices is how the firmware works different from most Android devices. Thanks guys!

Thanks! So it's not as important as it seems? I notice some roms here on XDA specifically say to have the newest firmware, or a certain version. The rom is still expected to boot? And what's the worst case scenario? A soft brick that can be easily fixed with TWRP or something worse? Thanks for the reply! Like I said, I'm coming from a Nexus 6 where none of this firmware stuff really applies :angel:

Yes the rom is a still expected to boot,though,the recommended frimware is to be used so as to avoid any bugs.
However,some roms do require the recommended frimware in order to boot but I don't think even if flash any rom which needs recommended frimware will take you in any kind of brick condition as when you flash a rom on incompatible frimware you'll see error in Twrp,if so happens you just need to have recommended frimware in your storage and flash it then flash the rom again and you'll not face any errors.
Good luck!

1. If you are using TWRP, nothing will happens. Because when you flash a ROM, TWRP will comparing your phone model with build.prop on the targeted ROM. Because based on my experience, somehow i download LineageOS for d802 and flash it to my bacon. TWRP gives an error and didn't flash any firmware. I don't know about CWM or other recovery
2. I'm using Lineage OS. It's pretty good so far. No bug or whatever
3. TWRP is good for all ROM. i think any recovery will do
Hello,
Just got the RN7P from china and I was wondering where can I find the Indian stock ROM (a.k.a. Global ROM)?
Also I live in the EU and from what I've read with the new MIUI 10.3 we will have EU ROM as well?? Is it out yet?
Can't find anything on both my questions in the ROM section of the forum.
Thank you in advance!
Yes we have got Eu ROM too. Here is the thread for it-

Hi, thank you very much for the provided links. I think it would make things easier, if there are threads created in the ROM&Karnel section for this phone.
What are the main difference between the stable and the developer version of the ROM? Do you get updates if you use the Developer version? Any know bugs?
What about the India Stock ROM? Is it possible to get that one as well?
Thanks in advance
Indian Rom and some info related on the whole thread.

If you flash with miflash (which wipes everything) you can update with system updater. if you flash via TWRP you have to update manually . The beta will be having little more features and there are no major known bugs. I would suggest you stick with EU rom rather than Global(Indian) version.

Thank you for the reply, I will most certainly give the EU a try. One last thing - will both Stable and Developer ROMs get frequent updates? Regarding to MIUI / Android ?? And are those updates pushed vie OTA or do you need to manually flash them?

Yes, Both will be getting updates. If you flash it through miflash you can update it via OTA else you have to flash it through twrp.
Hi,
Apart from OTA updates, is there any other significant needing on Flash with TWRP instead of MiFlash?
Thank you
