unified ROM for OnePlus 7/pro - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi
This has recently been brought up in the 7 forums. Due to the very similar nature of the hardwear between 7/7 pro and 7 pro 5g, is it possible to create unified roms for all 7 variants? We already have a unified twrp and some unified kernels. The next logical step would be unified roms. I know this was down with the 3/3t and I believe 6/6t. What are everyones thoughts?
Thanks

Hi. Surely pro 7 ROM section is the perfect thread? Which section should I post this in?
Thanks

Should this be in questions and answers? I thought as a serious ROM question it would go here.
Cheers

Can we move this to questions and answers please?

Hi. Can some Devs explain whether it is technically possible to have unified roms for all 7 variants. As I said at the beginning of this thread, it was done with the oneplus 3 series and 6. We already have unified kernels and twrp for 7 and pro. Is it therefore possible with roms? Would seem the logical next step.
Thanks

Hi
Can I get an update from Devs on this very important question? Unified ROMs would seem a logical move if technically possible. This thread was posted on roms section but moved here.
I know 7 pro 5g and non pro owners keen on an answer to this. I would have thought it was more likely a 7/7pro unified rom was more possible than a 5g one, as I know they had to make board changes on the 5g due to heat issues.
Many thanks

Still no response??!!

I'd very much appreciate a unified ROM to have lineage support extended to my OnePlus 7.

think were just screwed with 5g version, looking to switch to the 7t pro instead

Unified ROMs for the OnePlus 7 & 7 Pro please ??

xXx worked on several models as it was a Magisk module. Support was recently added for the 7T. He's pretty much supporting only the 7 models now, so you're on your own for any issues with older phones.
The 5G model seems to be a world of its own, and OP has been slow with support on it. Probably because there's not much use for it yet on this side of the pond.

smh strange to see my OP3 getting official LOS17.1 before *any* official release for my OP7

i9500 vs i9505

So I'm thinking of getting this phone in the future but I can't decide between the i9500 model and i9505.
Now, I'm not asking hardware-wise, I know the difference between the Octa and Snapdragon. I'm asking in terms of community support. Which one of these models get more developer support and faster/more stable/better ROMs and Kernels and.....stuffs?
I9505
And easier for development

A quick look at the dev forums for the two devices would give you the answer you need

I have already successfully rooted and flashed recoveries, radios and ROMs on 4 different Android phones before. You can't really tell how much a model is supported by just looking at the appropriate sub-forums, since even for 2 year old device as Desire there's still replies on threads, but not from devs but confused new users. Or there are very low-quality re-pack ROM devs.

Can I install any Custom Rom on my OnePlus 7 Pro?

I'm kind of new to this, but I saw a video of ONE UI running on the OnePlus 6 and 6t, but it day that they port that Rom, will I be able to install that Rom on the OnePlus 7 Pro for example? Or install a Android Q beta Rom via TWRP without port/support? Or does it has to be ported or compatible with the device?
Theoretically you should be able to flash A/B GSIs (note that the OnePlus 6 uses A only GSIs! There's a difference! Grab the AB GSIs!). Don't expect things to work properly. It might boot. It might not.

There's a handful of ROMs available now in their respective threads here on XDA. They all have instructions on installation.
Yep, go to the Development section and study the roms. Then Flash away...

Send me your phone and I'll flash a custom ROM for you. Otherwise, do your homework. We're not here to babysit.

XDA has a "Question and Answer" thread, which was created to help each other, if you're not going to help don't even bother commenting, also, line I said, why are you on this section if you're not going to help?

ROMs are built for a specific device and can be ported and maintained. There are a few that you need to flash in TWRP as per their specific instructions and a few that you can flash in magisk. You need to research and all the information you need is usually on XDA with each ROM in the development section. If it's not there, it probably doesn't exist or is done by a Dev who does not associate with XDA. Make sure you are familiar with nandroid backup and restore, root, TWRP and all the flashing methods associated with each. The instructions are all there and Google is your friend. Most issues you may experience are already brought forth and that's what the search function is for, but if you follow the instructions, you shouldnt have any issues.

Is there demand for the MSMdownloadtool?

Greetings!
Does anyone on XDA actually need/want the download tool for the OnePlus 7? I can acquire it if it is wanted, but I don't really know that a community exists for this phone, so I'm putting out a brief call-for-interest to see if anyone wants this thing before I invest the time in getting it.

I saw requests here and in other forums for msm tool.
Please share the tool.
I think share the tool will be very useful
It would be very useful definitely!
So it seems that most of the dev attention is with the 7 Pro, right? Regular 7 is a bit neglected in this regard?

Hi Mate, would be really grateful if you can 'cause I just hard bricked my OP7, I think I might have flashed the wrong version of TWRP.
MSMDownloadTool 4.0.88 from a OnePlus 7 Pro archive seems to communicate over serial port (it says connected) so that gives a bit of hope for my device.
I'm lacking the rom/firmware files for the OnePlus 7 to upload though, so if you can help here it is really really appreciated
Anyone else reading this and can help is of course welcome too.
Thanks in advance.
Yes, this would be really useful! Thanks!
For version oneplus 7 GM 1900 please.
As I wrote in the other thread... The main problem with OP7 is, we don't have MSMTools. That's why there are no custom roms for the OP7. No one wanna risk to brick the device.
Bricked device = no fastboot (probability is very high that bootloader is also locked)
Let's see what happens in future.

Will there ever be a lineage os or android 10 ROM for this device

Just interested if there's still any ROM support for this (because even my A3 2016 got a Los 17.1 ROM).
First thing you don't ask questions in development section and nope!

Ah ok I didn't know that, sorry. Also it's a shame there probably won't be many roms for this phone

[REQUEST] PIXEL EXPERIENCE ROM FOR OnePlus 8

Hey Guys I have been using OnePlus 8 (instantnoodle) for a couple months now and I am loving this phone ever since I got it. It would be a great help to OnePlus 8 users if they get a chance to test a super stable ROM like Pixel Experience. The kernel sources are out there and I know someone would create the ROM which would be a great help to the users who don't like OxygenOS.

Yeah it will happen eventually, but those request aren't really useful, if a Dev want to maintain this ROM for us, he'll do when he has time (that's a big job). So please don't post ROM request, try to build one or wait till someone does it.

I posted a request to aware a Dev who is really interested in making this ROM bcoz I thought if more people request a Dev then the Dev will eventually have more interest for creating the thing that the people have requested him/her to do.
