I do have a P900 myself and may be able to help.
Please give some more info about the state.
Battery fully loaded?
Any experience in flashing a ROM?
Which ROM is installed?
Any data on it that you wanna keep?
There is a forum especially for this device so it may be useful to ask a mod to move it to there.

Which stock ROM was installed?
Mandatory to have latest stock 5.0.1 as that bootloader is needed to use a custom Nougat and above.
Which TWRP version?
Mine is on LOS14.1 (need the camera) and twrp-3.6.0_9-0-v1awifi.img.

Updating Question

It says here that I cannot update if I rooted my phone,
Is there any way that I can update my phone with this new update, and not having any issues at all.
Kindly see attached file, I freaked out when I read this.
Sorry to trouble you guys, I'm just a newbie with this kind of rooting thing, seeking out help. Thanks
Up.. Please I need your help, I just want to know if it is safe or not. Or if there's any workaround with this one.
Thanks
If you have a root, do not try to update on usual way - can damage your phone!

[Simple Guide] Rooting Oppo F1 Plus X9009

Hello, this is simple guide to root Oppo F1 Plus. No need to unlock bootloader :fingers-crossed:
This method worked and tested :highfive:
Yes i know there's another guide in this forum but it only link to youtube video tutorial.
First, download this update.zip and then copy it to your device (internal or MicroSD is allright, up to you)
*You can download file update.zip via attachment below
1. Go to recovery mode. Turn off your F1 Plus, wait for a second and then turn it on again with Power + Volume Down
2. Select language (english of course ahh is up to you)
3. Choose Install from storage and select update.zip
4. Wait the process (below 1 minute) and when it done just reboot system
5. Finishing updating and then check in your app drawer SuperSu should appear
6. Update SuperSU binary if needed
7. Done
will this work with the F1f version of the phone?

There are instructions in a guide in this very section of this forum.
Works like a charm. Having recently purchased the phone I didn't want to root it. But after I realized that Oppo released the May firmware (around 1.3 GB) on their website. Everything works as it should. I'm hoping for an official forum with more stuff.
A question, what theme are you using with the default launcher?

What is FlashFire? I'm new to this, I had a Samsung S3 earlier so CWM was the king. Also, I get notifications for software updates but it just won't download. Even after unrooting and factory reset.

Flashfire is a tool that can flash zip / backup ur phone without unlocking bootloader or install custom recovery.. So u can install xposed.zip.. But there is no one try it for x9009 oppo f1 plus.. Make sure u check ur hardware info first so u download the right thing for ur phone if arm64 u must download for arm64.. Do it on ur own risk..
Just tried, its not working with Flashfire

There was a link for TWRP in the YouTube video. Anyone tried? If you want to try it's in Chinese but TWRP has a translate option.
I am now able to get OTA after 5th factory reset.

[RESOLVED] Can't go in Custom Recovery Mode

Hi, I'm sorry for the bad language because I'm not english and I'm sorry if I wrong section. I've tried to install a custom recovery on my Samsung Galaxy Grand Neo (GT-I9060). I've tried to install it by odin or by some apps, but I can't use the custom recovery mode! When I press the combination of Volum Up + Power + Home it goes in default recovery mode, so I can't install a file zip of a CyanogenMode. I've tried to go in custom recovery mode by some apps (ROM manager, TWRP manager..) but the app crashes. Any help, please?

Once you installed the recovery you have to enter it right away before booting for the first time or the stock recovery will overwrite it which is why your getting the stock recovery .

First of all see if a normal reboot fixes this.
If not.
In phone settings ->about phone
See if you have
1)baseband
2)imei
(Don't list them here just check if you have them)
Most probably this could be a problem with the ROM and can be fixed by flashing baseband.zip that you'll get from the same site you got the ROM.

This is the link where I got the ROM, but I don't find Baseband.zip
Well try another ROM ,its the one way to fix this.
Another would be to flash your imei ,you can find it in your phones case ,the tool would be sn write tool if your phone has mediatek (don't know/not familiar with other chipset family)
Plus the ROM you gave the link for is buggy and not in development.so you should try another ROM or if there isn't one use stock.
Incoming calls wont work either defenatly not a ROM to use as a daily driver

No what I meant by the stock ROM was the official ROM released for your phone(as in the condition your phone was at the time you bought it)
As for ril ,it has relation to sim but I'm not sure whether

But if you really wanna uninstall boot into twrp, choose wipe then wipe data,cache,system, and dalvik.
