I'm running 8.1 crDroid with no battery issues in fact it's better than the Color OS 2.1.5 which used too much battery.

I just keep all the background apps off by default to minimise the battery use I'm not sure why it's not working for you or maybe it's person to person case ?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Nefsue:
I have the same problem with you, could you send me the file"removesetuplvm.zip"?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] itmdn:
Already clean flash and my battery drainibg is gone now... need twice and really format all except extsdcard

Problem solved ! :)

Tq
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
What does it show on your screen?

Encryption unsuccessful?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Nefsue:
After I flash "setuplvm" it shows "Encryption unsuccessful", and the sdcard0 is corrupted. If remove lvm is useful? I just beginning to get my find7 flash 3rd party ROMs. My English is not well, thanks very much.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Do not flash setuplvm.

Make sure you have flashed the file that I have in the first post to change from LVM to chinese unification storage method then flash the recovery file here :https://drive.google.com/file/d/1m6ApDcKanlfVm5sHn2d-ExtHL6Pwuykq/view

Only flash this file instead of setuplvm : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lhZyH4q2Od0mtkQj0V169LN_OCGOPYrQ/view

Do it one by one in the modded twrp.

First flash ROM then go back to twrp

Then Flash Gapps then go back to twrp again

Then lastly flash the cm13 patch.

Everything else should be working as normal.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Nefsue:
I followed the steps and flashed CM14, ROM works as normal but I can't find internal storage in file manager. Could you help me solve this?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Hmmmmm have you flashed the cm13 patch ? It should show up after you flash it.

Also what rom have you downloaded?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Nefsue:
I flashed the patch, ROM is lineageos 14 official.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Ahhh maybe that's why.

It's the older version of Android I'm not sure try downloading the latest crDroid (link in first post) it will most definitely work.

Let me know
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Nefsue:
OK I will try. Thanks a lot:fingers-crossed:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Nefsue:
Everything works well with crDroid. I haven't found any bugs yet. Thanks a lot;)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Glad to hear it helped you :) enjoy 8.1
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] D0ping:
I have one question to the point below: What means patience in minutes approximately? 10min? 30min??

"- Now, the software should do the rest so please be patient and wait until the green line has finished and the timeclock down on the bottom right as come to a halt."

I see no progress for 20 minutes.

Thanks in advance.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
It took me no longer than 3 minutes. I think you're doing something wrong. Remove the battery and press and hold the volume up button while you connect the USB cable.

Let me know how it goes.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] D0ping:
Now it works. I changed two things:

1. I extracted the X9007_Android5.0_16G_20150520.exe to a folder instead only to desktop (without any folder).

2. Then i startet the .exe, accepted the license, pressed left top button to start "waiting for device" mode and after that i connected my cellphone to the computer while holding Vol+ without any battery.

I found a similar tutorial here: https://xdaforums.com/find-7/orig-development/rom-cm-13-0-official-nightlies-find7a-s-t3263643

Thanks.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] heichi13:
Really great work [MENTION=5301785]brownboy1289[/MENTION] :victory:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
This is by far the best how to guide I've ever seen! Thanks!!

By the way the rom works very nice, some apps have crashed and i can't seem to able to install AdAway, but other than that, love it!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Have you enabled Root from developer mode?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
Hi, yes I have. I finally managed to install adaway.

Just had to uninstall the pre installed version of adaway.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Ok, I'm currently stuck at this step.

After I hit the top left button, nothing happens. the time doesn't even run. Does this step require internet connection?

Nothing wrong with my usb connection, all drivers installed fine. Any ideas?

Thanks.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
It does not require internet connection.

Have you had your battery removed?

Just to double check go to device manager whilst in bootloader mode and click under ports there should be something like Qualcomm etc just right click and update the drivers by windows automatically finding the approriate drivers.

Let me know how it goes.

Cheers.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Ok, managed to get it work by following what D0ping did.

Now it's working...but having problems with connection.... it seems be connecting n disconnecting from the sound from the pc, and the green bar keeps moving and installing or trying to install the files. It's similar to when you insert a usb and then removing it.

It could be my cable so gonna try with a different one. Can i stop this current process by pressing the left bottom button?

(Edit.) Ok, it was the cable. The green bar and timer has stopped. I guess it is done.

Going to proceed with the next step.

---------- Post added at 04:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 PM ----------

Ok, i have flashed everything as the guide and now the device is booting with the Google logo "G" on with a moving bar at the bottom of it. How long does it last, it's been like 10 minutes lol.

Another question, what's the modded twrp version like, because mine says 3.2.1.0...which is also the same one as my previous recovery when i was running resurrection remix..
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Hmmmmm it should boot.

Make sure you have the modded twrp and not the normal one otherwise it will not boot up.

Flash modded twrp and flash individually.

:good:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Yes, I've flashed the modded TWRP and all the flashing of Rom, Gapps pico, and cm13 patch successfully. Then I read somewhere that to try doing Rom>CM13patch>gapps. And it worked...now has booted fine.

However, after setting up the accounts, I noticed that my internal storage is not accessible from the file browser. It's there if I head to Settings->Storage. I could see the Device Storage with 32GB (internal shared Storage) and Sdcard1. Is this how it is supposed to be?

Another problem I faced is that I sometimes get "android.process.media" error. Not sure what's wrong lol.

---------- Post added at 07:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 PM ----------

Looks like I can't access my photo gallery as well. :confused:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Make sure you have set up your sd card as removeable storage when you first set up your ROM.

I'm not sure how I can help you, calling others for help. Thanks. [MENTION=5390351]knusto[/MENTION] [MENTION=7807429]Nefsue[/MENTION] [MENTION=6903227]D0ping[/MENTION] [MENTION=2911228]heichi13[/MENTION]
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
You mean the external sd card? Yes, I set it as removable storage.

Managed to fix the android process error i think. Doesn't seems to appear anymore.

So, it's just the internal storage now. Can't access it from PC but it if boot to twrp recovery the storage is there ...on pc and on the phone lol.

Just curious, does xposed has anything to do with this? I had it when i was running my previous Rom Ressurection Remix. I didn't uninstalled it when i ran the new setup for crdroid.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Ok, I figured it out. :angel:

The storage issue was due to the USB cable connecting and disconnecting earlier. It somehow missed out on a file called "dynamic_nvbk2018...". This file wasn't installed lol.

So i did everything from start and it finally worked!:good:

Installed without any hitched and both the internal storage & external are accessible now. The gallery app works too. :laugh:

So now I'm just gonna enjoy this new rom.

Thanks a lot [MENTION=5301785]brownboy1289[/MENTION] for the help and guidance. :good:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:

[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] icefoxseason:
Hi, I've followed the steps that you provided above and the ColorOS Download Tools still stuck with no green line, and the timer is always 00:00.

I've already installed the drivers, rebooted, remove battery, hold volume up and plug the phone to my PC USB, run the program using admin privilege, accept the terms, click next, and click the first button on top left.

I've also checked the ports in Device Manager, and it's working fine. No warning sign or anyting, and I already tried to update the drivers, but Windows says that the drivers installed is already the best for the device. Any suggestions?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Try putting your OS in safe mode (https://support.eset.com/kb2268/) then trying again or try using another USB cable.

Let me know how it goes.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Try doing this way...

Run the tool, then accept the license. Press left top button to start "waiting for device" mode and only connect your phone after that to the computer while holding Vol+ without any battery. I had the same problem as well. This method worked for me. I suggest you read the entire thread if you haven't, could be useful.

Yeah, make sure you have a good usb cable.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] icefoxseason:
Yes, thanks a lot!

I've read through the thread but since I read it early in the morning perhaps I missed the post by D0pping.

Anyway I managed to unify my storage. I've managed to install crDroid ROM, but somehow I can't install the open gapps pico. Says the system partition doesn't have enough storage space with error code 70. This is very strange since I just unified my storage, means that the whole storage was wiped clean. Any clue?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Are you sure you downloaded pico?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Just wondering, If there's an updated rom from CrDroid, what's the best method of flashing it? Must wipe clean or dirty flash?

thanks.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Just download the ROM go to twrp and flash the ROM first and go back and flash the cm13 storage patch.

You do not need to do clean install or flash gapps.

Regards
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Alright, cool. :good:

e já tinha esse problema.

então eu só fiz o flash da recuperação modificada e depois o flash da crdroid.

eu não sei qual partição eu uso.

alguém pode me ajudar eu não entendo muito.

fiquei confuso na hora de abrir o CMD não fiz a primeira parte.

eu preciso fazer todo procedimento?

eu não tinha o armazenamento lvm eu acho.

porque eu usava a mokee ROM 7.1.2.

eu tenho que fazer todo procedimento?

Hey guys,

I followed all the steps but it's getting stuck here on first boot. Please help.

Thanks
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] vigneshnm:
I cried wolf too soon. I went back to twrp, wiped system, reinstalled them one by one (instead of queueing) and at the final step, clicked on do not install twrp app. It worked like a charm.

Thanks a lot for your effort buddy, would have never got a stable 8.1 ROM on my Find 7 otherwise!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
No worries enjoy man! :good:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
1) Tenha o seu telefone no modo bootloader. (Desligue o telefone, pressione o botão de aumento de volume e botão de energia juntos e conecte usb).

2) Navegue até a pasta e clique no canto superior esquerdo da pasta e copie isso. Por exemplo, C: \ Users \ samgi \ Desktop \ platform-tools

3) Abra o cmd e digite: cd C: \ Usuários \ samgi \ Desktop \ platform-tools

4) Em cmd digite: fastboot flash recovery image-modded.img

5) Remova o USB e pressione o botão liga / desliga e o botão de diminuir o volume simultaneamente.

6) Depois de ter piscado a recuperação, inicialize na recuperação e armazene a ROM, o GAPPS e o patch unificado cm13 no cartão SD externo usando o seu USB.

Por favor, verifique as imagens que eu coloquei na primeira página.

Hello,

Im sorry if i asked this on this thread.

I using latest crdroid 8.1 for find 7.

Is anyone have problem after rebooted phone, Adaway always disable, need manually press "download files and apply ad blocking" like the screenshot

Tq.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] knusto:
I did not get the adway to stay on, it always get disabled again. But I use Project Skynet Raising, and it has a very good ad blocker. You will find PSR if you search groups on Google+ by the whole name. I will advice to do a donation to Ks1 to get prime version.

Hey [MENTION=5390351]knusto[/MENTION]

About the project skybet rising thing. I have flashed the free version and I noticed that the root in the crdroid Rom doesn't give the PSR permission to write. How did you overcome that?

See attached:

Thanks
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] knusto:
Flash this before PSR

new problem... WiFi comes and goes every couple of minutes. (i had my data on so i did not realized this until the data run out and i got the sms notification)

i did try to install again, but the problem continues. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] jzlvr:
My screen is black when booting following the guide and flashing crDroid. Is this a ROM issue?

Screen works fine in recovery and fastboot.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Did you flash the rom using the modded twrp and flash each file individually?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] jzlvr:
Yes, each file was flashed individually with the image-modded twrp.

Everything works as planned up until I flash the crDroid, pico gapps and cm13 patch. I tried unofficial LineageOS 15 as well but same result and I tried flashing only the crDroid rom, but same result. Screen goes a weird pink tint and then black, however it does boot and I can hear a lock sound.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Hmmmmmmm try re-running through the tutorial one more time see if it still does not work. Cheers. Also are you using find 7 or 7a?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Maybe try not installing twrp app that pops up in twrp as mentioned by [MENTION=7414047]vigneshnm[/MENTION] before booting into ROM? If that helps let me know :)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] jzlvr:
Tried it several times, but to no avail. I can flash Omni 6.0.1 with the cm13 patch with no screen issues, however I do get weird bugs due to my chinese unified partitioning. Flashing these roms is risky, 3/10 would not recommend.

I am on the Find 7 , X9076
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
I'm not sure why it's not working [MENTION=5390351]knusto[/MENTION] any clue? cheers
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Last try go back to twrp and format internal storage and reflash the crdroid ROM with Pico followed by cm13 patch and make sure you don't install the twrp app or whatever that pops up comes up :svetius:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] knusto:
Cm patch after Rom before gapps
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] jzlvr:
I tried this, did not install any twrp app when it asked but my screen issue persisted.

Tried this as well, also tried not flashing any gapps but screen issue persisted.

I also tried LineageOS 14.1 with the cm13 patch but same issue, screen goes white and a pink tint and then black.

This must be a rom issue, I read in some other thread that Omni is the only custom rom which works for Find 7 with newer lcds, which mine has.

I was able to flash Omni 6.0.1 with pico gapps with the cm13 patch and now it works well but I am giving up on these other **** roms.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
I think only crdroid is the most up-to-date with 8.1. You're right about other **** ROMS they are out-dated. Nevertheless, I still miss the 2.1.5 for some odd reason. :D
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
Sorry guys, anyone who else having this issue with the wifi?

The phone is unbearable right now...
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
I just did the last update (https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=262369) and the problems continues
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
I'm not sure. I'm still running the crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180520-find7-v4.2.zip ROM without no issues with the WIFI dropping out. I've not updated it yet maybe need to get hold of the developer of crdroid. If you cant't just drop back to the 4.2 version for now.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
I have this issue no matter the version... That's why I want to know if I can do anything and if I am the only one having it.

I first installed and joined the crDroid when I found this thread, and I *think* I didn't face this WiFi thing.

Previously I was on Omnirom (Also no WiFi issue)

I first joined and installed crDroid on version 20180511, then updated to the 20180520 and today to the 20180612.

I only found about the issue when my data plan run out due to the WiFi dropouts. and i got the SMS from the carrier that my data run out...

I since then turned off data, and the WiFi keeps dropping continuously.

To the point that I can't read the forums or browse or refresh the feed on Instagram etc.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Hmmmmmmm I'm not sure why it's not working bro try clean installing again other than that i really don't know :(
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
Ok, thanks. I will try a clean install as soon I got I little more time.

Killer new boot animation on the new release, by the way!!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Lol I just flashed the new update thought I flashed another ROM xD the animation is super cool
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
Yes!!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
**Update**

I did a clean install of the 20180612 version and it currently finishing up the setup and installing the applications, but i think the WiFi is back on track. No (visible) drops for now.

Thanks [MENTION=5301785]brownboy1289[/MENTION] for the suggestion!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Yes that's probably the main reason even I do dirty flash when there's a new OS update lol xD
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
Arghhhhhhhh... It was fine for a couple of days, but now I have disconnect issues again...

Must be a hardware failure of my phone I guess
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] play8oy:
Yes, has happened to me a few times. I'm still unsure what caused it.

I did reboot and change/ play around with the wifi settings. I even relocated my wifi modem/router. The problem seems to be gone for now. I'm not sure what I did.

Do you have any other wifi modem/router? Or try testing with another wifi modem.

Gd luck.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
Well it drived me mad, so I went out and bought a used LG G6.

After I did tho, I thought to give LineageOS a try.

Guess what. WiFi is rock solid! (At least for now, it's too early to tell for sure)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
:laugh: you went and bought a new phone xD
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Stefanos infinity:
Well, a used one, but yes, find 7a was my daily driver and only phone, and with wildly connecting issues it was almost unusable, so...

(i also genuinely thought is was a hardware issue. After all i used this phone 24/7 for the past 4 1/2 years! :p)
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] I3anter:
When I try to flash the June 12th file, I get Error 7 in TWRP, so I went ahead and followed the tutorials to delete the assert line within the zip, but now it's telling me that my update-binary file is missing even though it's in there. Any help, guys?

Update: Nevermind, I just flashed the recovery image that you left on this thread and it worked perfectly fine again. I guess my original recovery was faulty.

Update 2: Aagh, sucks that you can only install Pico Gapps. I use face unlock normally so it might be a little inconvenient to type in my 10-digit password every time ?
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:

Drivers for find 7 installed? Double check by going device manager and let windows install the appropriate drivers automatically. let me know how it goes :fingers-crossed:
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] I3anter:
I was honestly thinking about getting it but I hate how there's no fingerprint scanner. The camera has to keep on sliding in and out every time I used my phone and I just don't know how reliable that mechanism will be. Also, I need that IP rating to use in dusty environments (I hate having to carry my phone in a plastic bag lol) so I guess I'll be getting something else soon enough!
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] Toxminn:

Can share the battery life? Im only able to get about 3 hour of sot, wondering if its the rom or need to buy new battery.
[Oppo Find 7 and 7a] brownboy1289:
Yes I did notice the dip in the battery quite significant. I ordered a new battery 3400mah maybe that might be the solution.
