Hello Friend as I am using Device Since last 10 months. Flashed Lots of ROM kernel Etc on device. Now after flashing leaked version of MiuiPRO 10 9.5.16 I was totally surprised with the Rom. For the battery performance. So I had decided to stick with MiuiPRO for long. So now when I visit their official website for subscription it's written [PayPal ] was not acceptable from India and some few countries. I had no other options for payment gateway. { Someone please please to subscribe }. I would very much glad for the help thanksss.

What rom you choose to use in your device is your choice.
But, a paid rom will not be discussed on XDA. Please deal with it on your own, and don't involve any other memeber in this.
I'm leaving this here for others to read and be aware of this information.
Thread closed.
Thanks,

Hello,
I am using official pie rom for 2 months, and it really has many bugs. Also my battery life considerably reduced. That's why I want to downgrade my phone to official stock Oreo.
I didn't root my phone, and I don't know what I have to do for this operation. I got my CID, it says "HTC__622 / Asia-HK-CHT".
Please help me about downgrade my phone to good old Oreo.
Thank you!

Hello everyone,
I have just bought my OP 7 pro (GM1910) in China and it came with Hydrogen OS 9.5.9. GM21. I have downloaded the latest Oxygen OS 10.3.0. GM57AA from the official website, but when I try to flesh throughout the local storage I get "System update installation failed" and I can't see the changelog.
Could anybody give me suggestion on how to upgrade to Oxygen OS:
I have tried:
Wiping cache
Factory Reset
Downloaded two different packages

Are there any instructions on how to use fastboot to update one plus 7 pro because I am scared that I will brick my device.

I am finding on all lineageOS based ROMs that the following doesn't work after install on the OP6
1. GPS stops working
2. the phone app crashes as soon as you get a phone call so you can't pick up.
3. phone app crashes if you try to make a call so you can't make calls.
4. you can't receieve SMSs (haven't tried sending an SMS.)
This seems to be the case for all liniage based ROMs I've tried.
Anyone else having this problem? Any idea what could be the cause of the issue?

I'm on /e/os (forked lineageos) and everything above that doesn't work for you, works for me. I'm on android 10, it's too early for 11 IMHO.

Thanks. I tried /e/os ... and the things that don't work, for example the phone and GPS, on every other lineageOS based ROM, including lineage v17 and v18, crDroid v6 and v7, ProjectSakura v4, HavocOS v3, revengeOS v4, syberia v4... all of which I've tried... do work on /e/os.
It's just a real bummer that the only 2 ROMs that i've found where the GPS and phone actually work are stock OOS (which i don't want) and /e/os ... which I don't really like compared to say crDroid... which is awesome... other than the sad fact the GPS and phone don't work.
I wish I could find a fix for the phone and GPS on other ROMs.

Can't Install WhatsApp on custom rom
Dear Forum members, I have lineae 15.1 on my Samsung S2 GT-19100 Running Oreo 8.1.0. WhatsApp stopped supporting my version and said I needed ot upgrade. I couldn't upgrade. Just nothing happened when I tried to update. I couldn't download via...
forum.xda-developers.com
Hello XDA members,
I am running LineageOS 15.1 on a Samsung S2 GT-19100 Android version 8.1.0. Recently WhatsApp stopped support forthe version I was running. The app kept giving me a front page sying upgrade now. I coudln't upgrade. I installed the later version .apk file donwloaded on a desktop computer and transferred ot the phone. It installed ok but stopped me using it.
I installed WhatsApp Version 2.18.92. WhatsApp says it doesn't support custom roms. Also it keeps asking me to reset date and time but I've tried everything and i can't get past the incorrect date and time page. I sometiems got a page sying WhatsApp does not support custom roms.
Has anybody here got a way to make WhatsApp work on a custom rom?
Thank You
If anybody else comes accross this problem I installed the latest version and it worked a treat also restored all content.
The lates version runs on anything after android system 4.0.3 so there aren't any issues with outdated systems. Just install the latest version of whatsApp and it works fine.
