received in France too!
Got it for 2 hours now. Not a revolution but nice to see that ASUS sticks to his words with the regular updates
I am from Brazil too, but I'm in an old nougat version and I don't want to go through all of the updates to get the Oreo, is there any other way? The update app in the smartphone only shows another nougat update. Went to Asus website but just saw a firmware that seems to be japanese and nougat. How do I download the correct firmware and put it in the smartphone?

GM1900 comes officially with HydrogenOS. And no, the updates aren't the same.
To convert to global you just need to install OxygenOS with official updater app. And you are good to go. You also won't have limitations than.
To install OxygenOS download the update zip HERE!
2. copy it to the root of internal storage
3. Go to settings, system and system updates.
4. Press the settings icon
5. Local update and choose the OxygenOS update.zip
6. Let it install and reboot after that.

Will there be a post for OTA oxygen os for 8T?

As stated in the title, I am planning to buy the Chinese variant which has hydrogen os for it. But the hydrogen os lack of the google play store so I want to locally upgrade it to Oxygen OS. Yet currently this forum still hasn't got any post regarding Oxygen OS OTA for this device.
ATM, I don't know an official download source for 8T OOS. https://www.oneplus.com/de/support/softwareupgrade is still empty (no 8T), each update for my 8T comes direct OTA onto the phone https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/oxygen-oneplus-8t-11-0-2-3.1333369/
Maybe it works, when you use the unbrick tool to "restore" your China device to OOS, but don't sue me when this kills your phone.
Hey, there are already OTA zips available for EU region, just not on OnePlus' website. The OP of this thread has them uploaded here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8t/how-to/guide-how-to-root-oneplus8t-kb2001-t4178675
You don't need to root, just download the EU zip and do a local upgrade. Do note that Global ROM (North America/NA) is now hosted on a dynamic googleapis server, hence people were unable to extract the OTA zip download link. EU variant works just fine.
I flashed the EU one over my chinese variant 2 days ago and all went well.
Adding on to what @zellleonhart said, after cross flashing, it would be better to format data via recovery once. It's not necessary at all, but I experienced some minor glitches and were fixed by formatting.
Good luck!

Yes you can, just make sure the EU version is higher than your currently installed Indian firmware, and do a factory reset after successful update.

I'm not sure, but 95% in EU rom there is Google dialer...
If you upgrade to EU rom, you do not need to unlock bootloader...
Also there is gonna be OTA

Google Dialer, same as NA or IN variant. Yes you'll get Ota updates as well, usually latest by 2nd or 3rd day after IN variant received it. For 11.0.5.6 it was same day.

CPH2025CW - Flash Global?

I have a CPH2025 running CW though I purchased it from Amazon UK and can confirm it's Unlocked Network wise, is there no way of flashing just a Global CPH2025 to it so I'm able to get updates quicker?
Nope
There's a flashing tool used by Oppo, Realme and OnePlus phones called MSN Download Tool.
It's what they use internally and there are always leaked / cracked versions available for OnePlus, but not so much Oppo. IF you managed to find the right version you could in theory change your software version. You'd need the tool and .ofp file (which is the full firmware).
I have a couple of cracked versions of the tool and OFP files that I stumbled across when trying to convert my Chinese version to global, but not willing to try on my CPH2025 in case I brick it (plus I have the global version so nothing to gain by doing so). Sure Oppo would reflash under warranty if you could be bothered with the inconvenience of not having a phone for a week.

Unlikely, there are only a few leaked versions of the full firmware, I have found A14 and A29, as ColorOS 11 isn't even out yet is say there is zero chance of getting a leaked version that someone has cracked.... Just have to wait.
It is actually possible to change to global! I put a small tutorial up on Twitter to show you how to do it.

Does it factory reset the phone? How is 4g/5g performance when you switch regions? I imagine Singapore would use different bands... And how does it look with Google Pay, certifications, Widevine etc?
Update: Never mind, tried it, the *# code is actually for a realme device, can't find one specific to Find X2 or X2 Pro, and have no idea if there is a way to extract a list of those secret codes from the device itself...

The *# works on the Find X2 Pro. It's not Realme-specific. Google Pay still works for me and didn't notice any mobile data difference. No factory reset either
I've tried and it works. Changed the region a few times, tried Singapore, UK, then the multi-language E - all worked fine. It even disabled and enabled region specificNone of them have me a ColorOS 11 update though which is why I was doing it.
However, I changed to Thailand True and now this procedure doesn't work. Now stuck on Thailand ?. My fault for playing too much!

Thanks for the post Adam, you've made a lot of people very happy. This change in regional settings had enabled people to get ColorOS 11 early, replace carrier specific software for a more generic version, get features like the Theme Store and call recording working and even opened up the possibility of having dual SIM on a single SIM variant!
Cheers buddy! ?

Question Is it possible to change the "software build" of my phone?

I bought a OP9 chinese model LE2110, my software is oxygen OS 11.2.3.3 LE25DA (indian)
I want global version because this one has some bloatware and indian company cloud notifications that i dont want.
Is it possible to change it to international version? i downloaded the global one but i cant install it (local) because its a downgrade or equal to my current one. i updated to the latest version when setting up my phone.
The chinese version/model doesnt have wireless charging, so if there is a problem with compatability, can I change back to the indian variant?
note: I dont care about my data i can format everything, my old phone can transfer things for me later
sorry i am kinda new to this
I got my answer, but i dont know how to delete the post.
have a good day

Why would you delete the post instead of posting your answer? You know, in case someone has the exact same issue.

My bad.
Well the answer I got is that I can wait for the next update, and manually download the european/international version(build) from Oneplus website. It will install and replace the indian version, and supposedly I will be able to remove all the bloatware that I can't install. I can't install the current international build because it is the same number as my current one and its considered downgrading, which is not allowed.
So I will wait for the next update and download it manually. Hopefully this works.

Pro tip: disable auto downloading the software update over wifi, just so that you don't accidentally download it.
It worked, I am now running EU software and the bloatware is gone.
