One plus NORD - Rom similar to FreedomOS? - OnePlus Nord Questions & Answers

HI. I posted this over on the oneplus 7 forum and then I read about the nord.
There is a big difference in price and it looks like I might go for the NORD but
same questions as below please.
Someone replied xxxnolimits module. Would that work on the NORD?
-------------
I have owned a oneplus3t and a 5t both running freedomOS. Sadly this is no longer being made.
I have been offered a one plus 7 pro for a good price but before I went ahead and got it, can anyone suggest a similar OS to FreedomOS?
Basically something reliable, debloated and minimal.
Thanks for your help in advance.

OnePlus 5T vs OnePlus 6

Hello,
Which one of these phones would be the better one to buy in terms of rooting, modding, customizing etc. ?
Does one support more mods than the other or they pretty much the same? Also would like support for Xposed framework.
Thanks

5T currently has more support for this. There is not much difference in their price. But 6 will eventually get more support later by time(Like custom roms but it already has many custom kernels available).
Ok yeah that's what I thought. But if I was to get OnePlus 6 and roll it back to nougat, would it be just as good as the 5T for customization or is it the hardware in the 6 that limits it?

Oh it isn't possible to flash a Nougat firmware on the 6?
Also, is xposed worth installing or can you find the same or similar modules as an apk these days? Xposed will also break safetynet too yeah?
I didn't installed xposed, I am running no limits rom.
No it is not possible maby u can build it but I have no idea.
Its all different because treble partitions, also qualcomm did not release the sources for the 845 processor. So aosp development is not active only on treble based roms are available but I have no experience with it.
But it will come with the time, the device is just 5 weeks ago released.
When qualcomm decide to release the sources the rom development will come.
Seems the new a-b slots made it much more difficult for devs, only omni as an custom rom today. Much worse than for 5t after same time span.
Seems Lineage is picking put the 5T, that can change the custom rom scene.
Treble has been an disappointment until now, no real benefit for op6

The point of project treble isn't for custom ROM support but for being able to be on the developer previews of unreleased, upcoming Android versions which will enable the OEM (our case OnePlus) to be able to update our phones much much faster.
That's the benefit.
Off topic post removed.
:good:
OT5 is simple life (old partition system) and no notch, but an old model already. OT6 has a notch and the damned A/B partitions, but brand new, with OIS, a bit better cameras tho the secondary camera on the back is just to help the main one...
The problem is that the 5T price isn't going down.

Is the One plus 6 a worthy replacement for a Huawei P20 Pro?

4 months in owning my first Huawei device and I already miss stock android. I've had Oneplus phones in the past and i have absolutely love them. So would you say the Oneplus 6 is a worthy alternative to the P20 Pro?
If you've owned them before and you know you like the feel of the OS, then I think you're the only one that can answer that question. There are some things you'll trade off, but you'll get stock(ish) OS, and faster updates.

Probably yes, based on what you want. If you'd like to sacrifice your camera (not so much) for a stock and improved OS, fast updates and large community support, well, go on!

When OxygenOS open beta OnePlus 7

Can anyone tell me when the Open betas for the OnePlus 7 will be available? I don't ask for an ETA. But in which month or Quarter can we expect it?
Looking bad for OnePlus 7.

Give it some time. The OP7 has not been released that long.
Sure, I still think they holding the OP7 back, to push OP7Pro.
I think so too. But I hope, they will give the OnePlus 7 the same treatment as all the other OnePlus phones.
I am currently on OpenBeta 33 for the OnePlus 5. And I like it very much. So I really want to get OpenBeta on my coming OnePlus 7.

Question Do you recommend this device?

Hey everyone, I'm thinking of upgrading from my run-down Redmi K20 Pro.
Do you recommend this device in general? How's thermal performance? How's the custom ROM scene? Do you have any regrets?

I'm using One plus 9 for 4 months and I really like it. The performance is good compared to other flagship phones and I didn't change the custom ROM till now. There is no problem with the ROM but my only regret is the battery drains faster when I see high-quality videos from Youtube.

I have the OP 9 from launch, hoping it would have the same custom ROM support as its predecessors (I've been sn intermittent OnePlus customer from the original OnePlus One).
Sadly, when mauronofrio departed the TWRP scene, the community never recovered. The lack of a fully functional updated TWRP has caused the development community to essentially wither away, with maybe 2-3 viable custom ROMs standing. That's terrible compared to the past.
Bottom line is that I migrated to the Pixel 6 Pro, where I hoped to find a more vibrant developer community. Same thing here. No TWRP. It's relative desolation. Sigh.
I like the device overall sure go for it, but still if you have a great deal on a SD865+ phone, buy that instead. The SD888 is great and all but only on paper, it heats up quicker than 865 and 855 and then whoosh all the great performance is gone.

New phone candidate?

Hi guys, this might be a dumb or odd question, but now that the support for OP6 has officially stopped, I thought it would be time to take a look around for a new device. I could get an OP 9 or 10, but I must say that the new FairPhone 4 seems, fresh and inviting with the repairability and easy battery swap. But so far it seems like a small upgrade when I compare the phones on GSMArena, but I have no idea on the CPU side of these phones, so the question is, it the FairPhone better than the OP6 CP wise?
Best regards
Dennis
Looks like a downgrade or side grade at best to me, I don't remember the last time I had to change a battery in a phone. I was going to upgrade mine during the holiday season, but didn't see anything that's worth upgrading to, maybe next year.

Although support has stopped officially. Community support continues to exists.. Android 12 on OP6 works great.. I'm using it as a daily driver (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-12-oneplus6-official-syberia-project.4354729/).
As far as Fairphone, I'd say its more of sidegrade/downgrade as mentioned on the post above.
If I do decide to upgrade, i'd probably look at a pixel 6 or heck even a Samsung for that matter
