Now we just wait to see how long it will take AT&T to actually release the update.

More than likely we will be getting the update in about 3-6 months.

NOOOO, I want it now!!! (Been hangin around my kids too long...)
That said, Is there a stable 6.0.1 ATT G3 ROM out there? STABLE being the key word.
I really want to be running MM, I have heard great things about it's smoothness and DOZE feature to extend battery life.
If there is a stable ROM, I'll root and install.

Nothing STABLE yet. That said, I've been running CM13 for over a month and I love it. Builds are unofficial but the latest builds in the dev forum are really fast, stable and have GPS working (for the first time ever for me, even with KK and LL). I run it with the 777 kernel and it's perfect for me.

Thanks for the feedback. I saw also (in subsequent posts) that the RR MM 6.0 ROM is also stable. I have never run CM before, so can anyone enlighten me so I don't have to drop 8 hours testing out both ROMs.... my questions are:
1) Which has a better camera experience? CM or RR? Stable, no FC.
2) which is more stable with less problems (ie, GPS, BT, no SD card, no 4G data, etc...)
3) which has better battery life?
4) Do either support device encryption? That was one of the major improvements in MM that no one seems to be talking about.
Thanks alot for the replies, and thanks to the developers for creating these, you guys and gals are awesome!

No camera app will work well other than stock as proprietary drivers and algorithms are used.

Do I have to use an aftermarket camera app like I did on SlimROMs? I used Open Camera. While it worked, it was sssslllloooowwww and sometimes caused the camera to crash, at which point I would have to pull the battery for it to work again (really annoying when you are trying to get Kindergarten graduation pics of your son...). I uninstalled it and reinstalled it, and those problems went away though. Android is so weird...
For this reason, I will never ever to get inside a google autonomous car. I'm gonna be the last old timer left, and everyone will ridicule me. "In my day, WE drove! And we liked it! We loved it!"

No aftermarket app will change the fact that you will be missing the LG firmware.

Personally I love the way LG has the camera setup where I can just tap the screen it focuses then snaps it. No LG camera on 3rd party rom so I went back to stock. If your phone is as important to you as you claim given all the questions you asked it would be worth your while to wait for the official update as I will. Let the rest test and be dissatisfied with the problems and lack of features. Note that I haven't had a crash or freeze since I got away from cm12

Point taken, but I don't think I'll get the official OTA MM anyway because I am not on ATT, but on Cricket. Or would I just download from XDA and flash it myself?
Did you still root and debloat the stock ROM? Or just leave it completely stock?

After trying many a many roms here for both d851 and d850 (My son and mine), I would definitely stick with stock if you take pics. The d851 is actually in better shape (mm wise) as it has a supported CM13, but the camera is poor. As for cricket- my understanding is that some phones get att updates, and some don't. If an update doesn't happen after you know mm has been released, you can wait a week or two and it very well may be posted here to flash- or you can pick up a att go phone sim for a couple of bucks and flash, then drop the cricket sim back in.
And yes you can root & debloat, but I haven't seen a prepackaged 20g (that has the stagefright patch) debloated yet. I just use super uninstaller app from the play store, which requires root.

here I am just stock with root & recovery (if needed) haven't found a need to use either yet but I like having the option available.
I have all the stock crummy at&t apps disabled because actually "removing" them requires quite a bit of time that I haven't yet found.

If I install cm13 or RR do I lose the LG IR remote?

I don't think there is a custom IR remote apk for MM yet like there is for lollipop.

I stick to stock based ROMs because of the camera problems on AOSP ROMs. I don't use my camera often, but when I do I want it to work well. I will wait for 6 to be released.

What is a good stock ROM you would recommend?

Pie. The official rom - problems

I have never seen so many problems with an official rom like Pie for OP6.
Is it possible that the OP company is simply testing this rom for the new OP6t?

I have no problems either, maybe perform a factory reset, this is highly recommended after major update and usually solves any possible problem...

I am facing many problems in Official Pie release:
1. Sometimes GPS location doesn't get updated.
2. Abrupt device restart
3. While connecting with bluetooth in Car, volume gets automatically decreased but phone shows that volume is full.
4. Loudspeaker volume is low as compared to Oneplus with Oreo.

You guys don't understand. I am not and will not use the Pie, because Oreo kinda works already, and I am not the kinda guy who fixes things that aren't broken.
However, I have been following the official OP6 forum on their website, and the volume of new threads and complaints about broken things has increased 10-fold since the release of stable Pie. I've never seen anything like that in any smartphone forum on any site.
I think that since the release of Pie stable, the number of new complaining threads is easily in multiple hundreds if not thousands.
Hence my idea about them releasing it early to fix bugs for OP6t release.

okay, than how do you think apple release 11 beta version before dropping stable but there are still some bugs. On the other hand, oneplus only released 4 dp before stable came out, obviously there's always missing, but at least you can rollback to oreo if you want

Do a full wipe and flash the OTA file. Then report back.

Hmm? Are you new to operating systems in general? Every time a major update hits (every year), bugs are bound to happen and it's why updates/bugfixes exist. Either do what you were already suggested (factory reset) or wait a while. The 6T has nothing to do with major updates having some wrinkles from the get-go and people generally not doing a factory reset every time a major update comes while expecting long term stability.

I said that I did not use Pie, nor was I planning on using it. Therefore, there's no need to factory reset.
I also said that I've never seen such an unprecedented volume of complaints after an OS release or update - hundreds of new threads, thousands of people complaining.
No, I'm not new to android, just look at my stats.

My point about operating systems in general still stands. You will always read about people having issues but you'll barely read about users not having any issues. I am a stable OOS 9.0 user without issues. I did my homework by backing up just so I could start that new OS fresh and couldn't be happier. I have seen hundreds of complaints about new OS updates before, just take a look at Windows 10 build 1809 and that's just one example of many that supports my point of new major updates in general. In the end, it boils down to your choice of staying where you are, backing up to start fresh like I and many others did or just wait in the bench for several months until the dust settles.

What you say is certainly true, but here's more facts to consider, so maybe you can see my point better.
Last time, when OP updated to Oreo, it took them about 3 months from when Google released it.
This time, it was about 6 weeks. I think that's a clear indication that the OS was rushed this time around. The reason, imo, is in my original post.

How, or better yet why would you come here to complain about something you haven't even tried? I've run every OOS version since launch. Many of those complaints are maybe legit, but just as many if not more are most likely user induced. I personally have seen very few major issues even on the beta versions, and I haven't experienced any of the things you listed.

My frIend, I'm not complaining, I'm discussing.
Also, it's true that a lot of complaints are user error. However, I was commenting on the overall volume and rate of complaints. As the overall rate increased 10-fold, so did the rate of legitimate complaints. Makes sense?

Again, the decision is yours. No company can please everyone. Some want faster updates while some want more stable releases. If this was indeed "rushed" I would have experienced instability even after clean flashing, same with other users. I don't know if you are deliberately omitting the fact that there were Pie Preview betas long before the official release for both OOS and HydrogenOS. I'm sorry but I can't give much weight to your point because my experience differs greatly from what you're stating and because you are yet to give the OS a chance. I suggest you give it a chance. I repeat, the decision is yours and my statement is based on my own experience.

What I am seeing for myself is my experience with the official stable release which has been great and not basing my complaints solely other people's feedback. That is called forming my own opinion. People that clean flashed like me encouraged you to give the OS a chance yet you insist on pointing to others. What was the point of this thread again?

Bingo. Reason #1 for not even bothering going there again.

I don't want pie either, had it went back to Oreo. Phone keeps bugging me to update, tired of being pestered. Haven't found a way to stop the update messages.

Official Pie is smooth, fast, and bug-free. OnePlus forums are full of morons. Very few "pie bug" threads on xda, that tells you all you need to know about how "buggy" pie is.

So you can have your opinion but others cannot ? Regardless what OP states in his post any software is bound to have error,bugs, improvement points . just because you are content with using the phone with said issues if any does not mean it does not have any issues or that every one should be content with using the OS as is.
XDA is a place to develop , improve and to an extent troubleshoot . I agree what OP states in his statement is broad and should have listed in his first which he later did . Its better to respond to those issues , if you can fix them or have a work around but do not discourage anyone from expressing their views.
As you said every one forms their options based on there usage , let him state his views

Xiaomi.EU compatibility in the United States

Is anyone using any version of Xiaomi.eu in the U.S.? I am on global stable 10.3.2.0 and want to try out Xiaomi.eu to try Android 10 and (hopefully) have working bluetooth codec support, but I'm a little nervous of trying out what is technically a China based ROM in the US when the global version works well. Does anyone have any experience with this? What version are you using?

Yes, it works very well, better than the AOSP roms. The Android 10 (weekly) rom has only one bug that I can find, when you boot (or reboot) the phone the microphone on calls doesn't work until you toggle between the speaker & earpiece and back. Once you've done that once it works fine until the next reboot.

Yes, remove any security before starting, that way you should be able to avoid formatting /data/media if you run into difficulties. If you're on the Xiaomi stock rom though, you may have to format anyway. I did a Mi Mix 2S last week and it wouldn't boot until I formatted, which I assume means that stock must use a different FS. I also have problems restoring apps from Titanium, some won't restore for no apparent reason. I use Nova Launcher though, which makes it easy to restore them from the Play Store.

Yeah, it's about the best Android experience I've had. I thought the AOSP roms were good on this hardware, but this is even better. It's the reason I bought a Mix 2S for my gf for xmas, since it's essentially a Mix 3 without the slider and an LCD screen (alas!). Makes technical support so much easier if she's running the same software.....

Oh yeah I'm sure it is. I've been trying to decide what to update with recently because my bluetooth audio codecs weren't working and I'm sick of being stuck on SBC. I looked around at Evolution X, Resurrection Remix, and LineageOS but all them have some weird issues. I also have grown to really love MIUI. It gets a lot of hate but there are a lot of things I would miss if I switched to AOSP so I'm really happy MIUI 11 via Xiaomi.eu runs so well.

Have you checked in Developer Options?? It has a choice of 8 codecs. I don't know how that affects what the application uses, but it might be worth trying it.

Yeah I can see the different option in the Developer Options but when you select one it either doesn't change anything (when the headphones don't support it) or breaks the audio (happened when trying AAC which I know my headphones support, so something was wrong there). I have no way of testing anything other than SBC and AAC, but after flashing Xiaomi.eu MIUI 11.1 AAC is now working at least. So there was just some issue with MIUI 10.3.2.0 global stable

Did OP abandon this phone?

This is my 2nd OP phone, first was the OPO. Couldn't believe how much life I squeezed out of that phone, and by most accounts OP has been good about keeping their old phones updated and usable.
Instead we've had broken Android 10 on the OP6 for months. Did something change at OP? Between this, unstable TWRP on the 7t, and unlocked bootloader issues with the McLaren, it seems like they DGAF anymore.

Im on OP6 beta channel.. OP has provided 4 updates till now and all of them have been pretty good and stable. So its hard to believe that the stable channel is broken and not addressed for a long period.
Its always a good practice to factory reset after a major update. My brother's Galaxy M30 was lagging after the recent Android 10 update but factory reset made it fine again. So maybe it might work for you as well

I'm rooted but did a full wipe incl. data when I upgraded. Had the same lag, battery drain, brightness and keyboard issues people have been complaining about with the latest stable release. Toughed it out for 2 weeks before reverting back to 9.0.9. It sucks because I don't want to give my headphone jack or my rear fingerprint sensor, and definitely won't be sticking with OnePlus if they cannot be trusted to keep a 2 year old phone properly updated. I have not tried any of the beta versions.

You cant blame OP if you have rooted the phone. Once you mess with the original rom then its on you. I have clean beta official ROM and it works like charm.

This is a stock ROM. I never mess with custom ROMs on OnePlus devices. And the mere fact that I'm using TWRP and Magisk should not break the UI. It never has on any other phone I've had going back to the HTC Evo 4G. On every other phone, stock performs the same whether or not it's rooted. If that's no longer the case with OP then that's another reason to reconsider paying $6-700 for their phones.

Not sure.. But Oneplus literally screwed this device with their Android 10 update.

This is a stock ROM. I never mess with custom ROMs on OnePlus devices. And the mere fact that I'm using TWRP and Magisk should not break the UI. It never has on any other phone I've had going back to the HTC Evo 4G. On every other phone, stock performs the same whether or not it's rooted. If that's no longer the case with OP then that's another reason to reconsider paying $6-700 for their phones.[/QUOTE]
You might add that TWRP doesn't have anything to do with the ROM, and Magisk is fully systemless, so without active modules, this shouldn't be able to break anything ...

I'm rooted but did a full wipe incl. data when I upgraded. Had the same lag, battery drain, brightness and keyboard issues people have been complaining about with the latest stable release. Toughed it out for 2 weeks before reverting back to 9.0.9. It sucks because I don't want to give my headphone jack or my rear fingerprint sensor, and definitely won't be sticking with OnePlus if they cannot be trusted to keep a 2 year old phone properly updated. I have not tried any of the beta versions.

This. Bump!

I even didnt try update to 10...
Rarly came here due lack of interesting new things....except Gcam....
Happy with 9.0.9 and period. Root + TWRP + xXx rom for ViperSound.
Everything works, don`t touch more.
But i really feel OP already left this device to abandon......such a shame.
Or, due to many models, the team is the same with lot more work, anyway we all suffer lack of confidence in them. Or at least me.
Camera, sound =piece of crap

I think all you cant complain about Op support. Say me which brand dice you Active and fresh support on devices older than 2 years.

I don't understand what is your expectation when you say OP has abandoned this device? They worked towards providing Android 10 update, but it was your choice to not to install it. People reported bugs and stability issues in Android 10 update, and OP has worked and fixed many of them, and they are still working on it (been using Android 10 since beta and at current state, very much satisfied with it). But is not beneficial as you have chosen not to use it. If you like using rooted ROM with mods installed, and if your expectation is that OP provides you the mod functionalities in the ROM (if that's what you expect), that doesn't mean they are not working at all on this device. If you are happy with older ROM and do not wish to upgrade, then I don't understand why complain about OP not providing anything new?
Camera and sound are not up to the mark, for Camera, even with GCam I don't find the image quality satisfactory. And this is a major drawback of this phone, and only solution is to buy a phone from some other manufacturer, like Samsung which is better in these aspects (at least that's what I could think of for my next purchase)
Apologies if I sounded rude anywhere.

I'm running the first version of Android 10 that was released and the only issue I have encountered is the black screen while trying to unlock the phone. That's easily circumvented by just pressing the power button to turn the phone off and then back on and done. I've had this phone since launch and it has by far had more updates than any other OnePlus device that I have owned. I have been a faithful customer since the OnePlus 3 and I have owned every device since

OP here. 10 3.1 fixes nearly every issue I was having with Android 10. I'm rooted and running the latest TWRP and having no issues at all except for the space under the keyboard, which is an easy fix. Furthermore it looks like a lot of the issues I was having were with Android itself, not OOS. In any case I hereby withdraw my criticisms of OnePlus' handling of this. Great work, team.
I will also add that I recently acquired a OP7Pro, and while it is a great phone, Android 10 is just as glitchy and 98% of the time it does not feel any faster than the OP6.

Surya owner 6months. Looking for Clean/Fast/bug free ROM

Hello everyone.
I own the Surya Version of the X3 NFC for over 6months now. I am not satisfied with stock MIUI 12.0.8 and I am searching for a better ROM. Before writing what kind of ROM I am looking for, I ll write down some things about the past.
I was using for 3 years the Xiaomi Mi A1 using Pixel Experience custom rom and found to be the best overall for my needs. I tried also some clean AOSP Android Ones which were faster but had serious bugs. So Pixel Experience on my past Xiaomi mobile device was very balanced overall and was happy with it.
I see there is a thread for PE and PE plus for our X3 and I am reading these days the thread carefully.
What I am looking from a rom:
Less possible bugs,
Compatibility with security apps for banking financial purposes, authorization etc.
Lightweight in resources.
The cleaner the better for me. I am experienced and I can install everything myself including Magisk modules and stuff. I will stick with stock kernel or change to another one only if there is proof to be bug free and not messing with the device performance-compatibility-battery life.
Best camera app is a must but I am sure I will find a better one (google cam) than the stock I have right now. (feel free to make suggestions)
Right now I just made the Mi account and I am waiting the 168hours for the unlocking. So no hurry to find the best answers. I have 1 week to decide.
Do I flash the PE, PE plus or another rom?
Thanks so much for any opinions

Having had my Poco X3 since launch, I have now tried Xiaomi.eu (stock based), ArrowOS and am currently on Resurrection Remix,(v8.6.9, A10 based), and I'd advise you to stick to what you know best (the Pixel variants, some of which are quite well regarded) but also to not get your hopes very high.
From reading the forums for as much as long, my opinion is although the hardware specs are great, no custom ROM is completely without issues -- or maybe I'm just spoiled from past experiences, where I had no troubles worth mentioning setting up and using them as daily drivers.
Cameras on this device, for instance, are by itself a whole field of research.
If simplicity is what you seek, than most folks here will point you towards ArrowOS or LineageOS.

Thanks for the answer my friend. I am also reading the ArrowOS thread since I started searching for alternatives.
What would you think about ArrowOS disadvantages from the time you used it? Stock kernel or something else?
@pnin

From my usage, I had trouble setting up some rather basic options but, as it was a while ago, I don't have too clear a recollection.
Afterwards, ArrowOS switched to A11 firmware first and then an OSS vendor, which resulted in a seemingly never ending stream of complaints about upgrades, lack of features and degraded performance -- myself, I never experienced this because I had already moved on.

The migration to OSS vendor happened 2-4 years earlier than necessary, thats what (issues) you get when you do not wait for xiaomi to fix the issues and you try to fix them yourself.
I am still on the last non-OSS build cause of that untill they fix all the issues

I'm using OSS vendor and have no problems.
Which issues are you talking about?

The ones reported on the ArrowOS thread.
Some users report worse performance and some issues here and there.
Also they seem to discontinue smart charging cause of an issue with it.
Personally i am on the latest non-OSS build cause:
A) i do not wish to format the phone and start from scratch again.
B) above reported issues.

@iakoboss7
Thanks for your reply. Can you please share your thoughts on what is not working on the non-OSS rom? I would like to know every detail if it is possible.
also I was unable to find the non-OSS build. where are these variants? I see only vanilla and gapps.

There are no issues reported on the last pages of the ArrowOS thread.

You may as well flash the 20210608 OSS build and stick with it.

That's something you will have to do anyway sooner or later. There is no way from non-OSS to a current build.

Again, there are no reported issues. Please name the issue you have in mind or stop making false accusations

FYI, just now in the ArrowOS thread, atefbeldi and CherryFarmer8 complained of some serious problems with recent updates (cf. https://forum.xda-developers.com/posts/85337817 and following).

They are complaining about a problem with Magisk. atefbeldi specifically writes that the problem only occurs after installing Magisk. Without Magisk there is no issue
