I have a question!

Hey there.....may I ask the steps you took to achieve this? From stock all the way to the Lineage OS that you reached. I've tried tons of stuff but it doesnt seem to work. Could you guide me? or maybe email me? Thanks in advance :) Kudos for showing evidence that its still possible to Custom OS that R9 Plus.(Color OS honestly is pathetic.....I could've give it a chance if developer options are permanent but Nooooooo.)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeysteele:
All information is in the linked thread to the Oppo Forums. And most of the Kudos goes to Wuxianlin :) I've been using Lineage as my daily driver - it's almost perfect - but because of Oppo's GPL violation in not releasing the source code for the kernel, some little bugs may never be able to be fixed.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Atheist ray:
The firmware files won't download.

Hello, I tried downloading the files from your mega. lineageOS was fine, but both of the firmware files won't download at all. Could you upload them somewhere else??
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StevenHood:
hello is it possible change the part number in adb? to be clear i bought r9s plus chinese version has a different part number by international version, but i am nearly sure hardware is the same for both... so to flash international rom is possible change part number in the way i could flash the rom????

cause now i get an error when i try to flash cause international rom goes just for ne specific part number in detail chp1611 i think
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonecapone:
Hello. Thanks for your tutorial and file Repo. I am doing work for a client who wants the stock firmware flashed on his device again. From what i gather it is a Chinese version. It has a Chinese and English menu. Did you flash to the international from a Chinese model or another? Phone is still new to me so I've no idea if there was more than just the 2. I read your post on Oppo http://community.oppo.com/en/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=51837&extra= and understand the instructions and have been debating flashing however since this is what i believe to be a Chinese version I don't wan't to risk bricking it. Was yours a Chinese model and was the only thing needed besides root and twrp a simple swap of the NON-HLOS.bin in the firmware packages from Wuxianlin with one from ColorOS? I noticed you said you made a few tweaks too.

Has this project progressed much?

If i don't take the above route could you possibly guide me to a working flash file for 5.1.1 and 6.0 ColorOS Chinese/English model of the R9 Plusm A?

This is what i've found and tried so far flashing from SD-CARD with no luck however. - X9079EX_11_OTA_013_all_201706081345_local.zip (a few others too but they are updates and i need to format and flash all.)

Sorry for 10000 questions. I'm not left with a whole lot of information and options on this phone.

Thanks,

phonecapone

Is the R9 Plusm A the International and the R9s Plus the Chinese or a totally different model? I'm still reading up as phone is new to me. Confused.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikeysteele:
As it says in big red letters on the opening post on the oppo forums, it's for the international version only (X9079EX) . I have never owned a R9 Plusm A, and I sold my international one anyway.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] seychellian:
Hi All,

I have a Chinese purchased Oppo A57 running ColorOS version 3.0 and Android 6.0.1. As other have mentioned a lot of the core apps and settings are still in Chinese despite the fact that all the language settings have been turned to English. Is there "flashing for dummies" method of getting an English version of the OS installed on this thing that has limited (or no) chance of me bricking the phone. I have read through the thread and to be frank a lot of the instruction seem to be above my pay grade. If anyone has some suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. The alternative is to learn Chinese which will be tough.

:p
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _Mitya_:
And what and how you do it?

TO ALL - it's been more than a year since this thread was opened, and still not a single normal answer. Guys with X9097X phone - stop answering here - you have intenarional version of smartphone so it is easy for you to upgrade firmware, change firmware or even flash custom.

The main problem is OPPO R9 Plusm A - full chinese phone. I was so stupid to changed my iphone 6 plus 64gb to this POS. I was really hoping that soon someone will find way how to change chinese ROM to international one, but still it is impossible. I tell you more - OPPO comunity forum already deleted all threads about R9 Plusm A.

Half an year ago on oppo community forum was one man who managed to make manual how to delete/stop all chinese junk on this phone, but thanks to administration of forum it was deleted and now, when i accidentaly done factory reset i can't find this article and remove chinese junk...

I don't ask you for manual of flashing international ROM, but maybe someone have screenshots or cached version of that deleting chinese junk manual? I will be very appretiating for this.

PS i'm sorry for any mistaces in my sentences, it is not my native language and i'm from Ukraine) Please help me, because i've tired fighting with this phone and i can't even sell it, because nobody understand the power and potential of this phone while it is full of chinese apps and services.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonecapone:
This one was quite simple to figure out. The R9 PLUSM A. I accidently wiped all my project files and i *think* this was part of it. But if I come across my files i will post here to help you.

EDIT: I found my link stash for this and I can output the links from Google Chrome to html file for you if that helps. There is a horde of information that should help you.

---------- Post added at 05:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 AM ----------

There shouldnt be a lot of items in chinese as long as you select english. I only ran into the browser being chinese. Again though it was for a client so i didn't mess around with it a whole lot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Idiosyncratinom:
Could you PM those links/files? Cheers!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonecapone:
[MENTION=6821796]Idiosyncratinom[/MENTION] Sure no problem. I will post them here or attach a zip file with the html of links that i researched when I worked on this handset.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Idiosyncratinom:
Looking forward to it!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonecapone:
You will either need the chrome extension "The Great Suspender" or modify the extension links to display the proper link format / view in browser. I'd do it but I am swamped with work and won't have a minute free for a while. There are a few random links in there not related to the OPPO. Just ignore them. Hope it helps. Enjoy!

I usually do this with every project so i have quite a few tab folders from projects saved. Perhaps i'll upload them all in a thread somewhere and continue to do so as i work on new phones.

Links are attached below.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dvalin21:
Do you have a download link or can upload the files to install CM13? Apparently oppo took down the page that all the files were on Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthewstrasiotto:
I second this, I'm looking for X9097 images (TWRP mainly) and am having little luck, everyone keeps pointing back to this holy grail oppo community forum like "Go here it'll change your life I lost 50kg and learnt a new language from this thread and now I pull chicks" and its DOWN hahaha

I'll put up a github gist or just a github walkthrough with some links/applicable resources once i get ahold of everything I need.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonecapone:
Just replied to your PM. I just did a quick search for you and here is what I came up with.

Here is OmniRom and some other resources for the X9097. http://bbs.coloros.com/thread-151150-1-1.html

Try Searching AndroidFileHost also.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matthewstrasiotto:
Hahaha *X9079, I keep getting the 7/9 mixed up.

Cheers, I got some advice that AFH might also have some archives or something, so I'm gonna go for that.

Failing that, I'll try building my own X9079 image, since I found its device trees
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phonecapone:
Oh yeah haha. I forget you mentioned that. Good luck with your search and build. =]

I'm finishing up my week long journey i've taken down the Asus path. These intel SoC's are bit different. Hoping i have just finished it... RR Build i'm trying on a ZenFone 2 is buggy as f*ck! Same with MoKee build. Looks like LineageOS will be the winner for this handset. I would like to fool around with some more OPPO's some time. They just don't come around much where I am at though. Last one I redid for a client was the first and only OPPO I have worked on. Was a pretty decent phone though lacked a lot of advanced capabilities I favor.

I didn't think another phone this year could match or beat the Axon 7's audio.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nitemare3219:
Audio mumbo jumbo still confuses the heck out of me... so which phone is best here?
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] DrakenFX:
The only thing I know is that Axon 7 have an Amazing Sound (Speakers and Headphones) and for what it cost is just a bargain.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ItsLasher:
Audio levels high or low mean nothing if the audio produced sounds like ass. So far the Axon 7 has the best sounding audio of any phone I've heard.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Chris2810:
I saw one review on youtube, actually a comparison between OP3 and Axon 7 audio. The guy said that OP3 is far better when using headphones with Atmos turned off on Axon, and that Axon is only better with Atmos turned on. Is that really true? Because I intended to use Atmos only with speakers.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] MaxRink:
with ****ty headphones, maybe. otherwise a plain no.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] max1001:
Depend on how the reviewer is testing. Only the built-in music app can use the hardware DAC. Without that, the sound would be as good as any other Qualcomm s820 phone.

Download a flac audio file and compare the SQ using the stock Music player and any other player. The difference is pretty noticeable.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] test878:
$400 phone vs $650+. The real bonus to me in audio is the front facing speakers, I'd rather have that than the better dac that the v20 has.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] SovPanda:
Does the phone support flac? Transferring flacs I made with EAC shows that the phones doesn't support flac
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] osmosizzz:
Have plenty of flacs. Play back smooth without issues.

---------- Post added at 02:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 AM ----------

I've had the axon 7 since release, I have to disagree. I have the vmoda m100. Pretty. Nice set of headphones. Atmost, to my ears, makes the sound worse though headphones. It's taking an audio signal and altering it for surround sound. It's not bad per se, but it's better if you listen to music with it off while listening through headphones. With speakers, it's a different story. I turn atmos on when playing music through the speakers. Makes the sound fuller, slightly louder and more pleasant
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sander:
I've read this before. I only use Spotify for music. Will I not be able to listen to music with the standalone dac?
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] xtermmin:
I don't think it's true that only the built-in music app can use the DAC.

I've tried a couple of other basic music players (Clean Music, Pretty Good Music Player), and when I start a song, go into android Settings > Sounds & Vibration > Headset HiFi, and flip the switch back and forth, I can hear a difference in the audio quality (albeit a small one, I'm not an audiophile and am using a cheapo set of ear-covering headphones). I can also turn on the Dolby ATMOS feature and really hear an improvement.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] joaste:
Seeing the graph presented in the article, it suggests simply a bad measurement for the Axon 7 (as in an incorrect measurement). I don't see how those numbers can be accurate. Having said that, I'm not a sound engineer...

Any comments from more knowledgeable people here?
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] MaxRink:
i ment op3 vs A7 in general, not Atmos. i personally dislike most sound "enhancers" but (P)EQs are dope AF.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] max1001:
Of course it supports FLAC. All my musics are FLAC format.

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:46 PM ----------

No you will not and that's a good thing. The DAC should only be on when playing lossless format because it will drain your faster otherwise.

---------- Post added at 08:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:48 PM ----------

You would need FLAC files and a good set to tell the difference. It's not a big deal to be honest. People like to pretend they care about SQ but 95% are streaming music or using MP3 and having a DAC is pointless for those.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] SovPanda:
How do you transfer them from your computer to the phone? Dragging the flac file to my phone's SD makes a pop up saying the flac file isn't supported on the phone and would convert it to a supported file
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] osmosizzz:
Just click, transfer anyways and it won't touch the file. The phone will play it, regardless of what the computer says

---------- Post added at 04:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:04 PM ----------

True, but with a good dac, the streaming music and those mp3 are much better reconstructed (which is what a dac does), therefore, even low quality music has a tendency to sound better with a better dac
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] thjoca3:
Typically a good DAC on a good system/headphones will show you how crappy lossy/low bitrate files really are.
[ZTE Axon 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] osmosizzz:
Yeah I've come across that too on too many mp3s. So much so honestly that I went ahead and bought the cd version of my most listened artists just to have the flac version...

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlashFlush:
I really need help. I've searched around all over the web and on here with no solution. What happened was I tried to downgrade my G3 to stock 4.4.2 KitKat from 5.0.1 Lollipop. The flash tool went all the way to 89% and failed. I took out the battery and now my phone just boot to the Android recovery after the LG logo. When I try to use Flashtool to flash it again, my IMEI and S/N show as null and flash tool fails at 6%. I can't find a solution. I'm able to go into download mode and recovery which the recovery mode only has wipe data to factory.

I'm running Windows 7-64bit. I've tried different Windows version and 32 bit version and none works. I've sent it to a store and they thought they could fix it because they say it is software issues. They couldn't fix it.

I try downloading different Roms variant and .KDZ and .ToT files but nothing works. I've tried both upgrade dl and board dl in Flashtool but nothing works. I've used the D852 DLL, the generic DlL and even the DLL extracted from the .KDZ file.

Please somone help me. There are people with the same issues and either they got it fix or their thread end unsolved. What can I do.

this is just a little info i want to pass along that i learned from tmobile today. it's not meant to be an iphone vs. samsung thread.

i talked to a couple different reps today and they all told me the same thing. if you have a note 7 you can exchange it for an iphone 7 next friday. you cant do the pre-order because they would need to get the note 7 from you first before doing the iphone exchange. so you just take your note 7 into a tmobile store next friday and they will reimburse you for everything you paid for with the note 7 and you will even get your jump back. at that time you use the reimbursement to pay for the iphone 7 and use the jump that you just got back.

just wanted to pass along some info in case anyone else was wondering.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lancerz:
I'm pretty sure most people know this but thanks anyway. You can exchange it for any phone you want, no reason they would exclude the new iPhone. This is exactly what I plan on doing, I will be at the store at 10am on release day! Figured this is the best time for me to try out a iPhone, the timing is just to coincidental lol.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] ejdavis:
And, why downgrade to IPhone 7! Smh
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Intub8:
That's your choice to make but just a small tip. Go to the store at 7:30 am on the release day. The stores here in New Jersey open early but they do not advertise it.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lancerz:
Why not, if I don't like it I have another jump upgrade in 3 months.

---------- Post added at 05:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:45 AM ----------

I work midnight shift and get off at 7am so ill swing by but I doubt they will open that early in Ga. Plus their are 3 T-Mobile corporate stores on the same street where I am so I'm sure I'll be able to get one on release day.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] playya:
Let's use a little common sense when posting about an Iphone in a android based community. Honestly not many people in here would even care about that and to top it off why go to a phone that does less than what you have now. I know I know it blows up but you do know your chances of getting hit by a car are greater than your phone blowing up right now. I bet you still go outside and drive a car or get on a plane, etc..... You people kill me.

Thanks for the info but I dont see how this is the place for it. also, this was not a bashing post.... :D
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] JayDean03:
Thinking about going back to iPhone as well. I shouldn't have to compromise settings just for this phone to work.

As an Android/Samsung Fanboy it's a damb shame to have to go through all this.

The 6s Plus NEVER gave me any problems. Even with 2gb of RAM, it NEVER lagged. Hell, the battery was hard to kill with heavy usage (4hrs of youtube background play, fb, text, browsing XDA, etc).

I'm trying to give Sammy a chance but damn.. hopefully the results of these replacements can change my mind.
[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] pete4k:
I think better comparison would be driving and texting or being distracted by phone in general: the same people panicking about faulty batteries think nothing of using the phone while driving and I'm guilty as well, just glanced at the map to check traffic ahead, same time as the guy in front stand on breaks, I barely stopped without hitting him and I drive a lot with years of experience. Probably more than 500 people die each yr. because of phone distractions. My phone charging station is on marble table in kitchen for years (convenience of multiple outlets at above waste level), accidently right next to smoke detector. Most likely it would be non event for me even if it burned to crisp. I put my life in much bigger danger when I'm cooking, but that's another story. As a side note advice, for those interested to buy iphone7, get iphone 6 instead put the tape on headphone jack and viola, you got iphone 7, you can thank me later.

[T-Mobile Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] freebee269:
yea your best bet is to go into the store and get one. my local tmobile is opening at 8am and handing out tickets in case there is a line. they dont know how many they will have in stock.

Note 7 to iPhone 7 in a Android based forum OK real relevant in a forum with 100 of thousands of users your 2 people that think it's useful makes your thread useful.
