Does the old dash charger and cable from OP3 work with OP5? Is there any difference between the old and new charger?

I can't tell for sure, but I would say it should be compatible. The product itself didn't change on Oneplus Store after Oneplus 5 launch; that should be an indicator for compatibility accross versions. Is there someone here who can confirm that (upgraded from 3 or 3t)?

I posted a question for Oneplus support and they confirmed that my old dash charges (the car and the mains) both work with the OP5
I'm planning on unblocking the bootloader when I get the phone. If I wanted to relock the bootloader at a later stage, is this possible and will it go back to "locked" or "relocked" type status, or would you be able to tell it was ever unlocked?
Just curious if this will have implications to DM Verity and android pay working in the future if I ever wanted to go back to pure stock without root and have those things work.

Yes OP3/3T Dash charger or car dash charger both would work fine with OP5 and Visa Versa

Yes you can lock the bootloader later on via fastboot to locked status, no implications with DM verity if you flash the no verity zip.
You can go back to stock anytime you want
Just flash the latest stock rom and recovery and lock the bootloader to go back to stock.

Hey I just got mine OP5 few minutes ago, now I would like to unlock the Bootloader but in order to do this I need the drivers for windows 10... where can I download them? If I just turn on my device and connect it nothing happens
Hi, is there any option to change the resolution when taking pictures and videos with stock camera? I've looked in the settings but cannot find anything.

I did it and downloaded the files but somehow my windows pc still does not recognize my oneplus... whatever after I booted my Kali(Linux) system few minutes ago everything worked well
If I buy the OP 5, I hope to use it for 3 years, therefore:
How long will software & security updates be provided for OOS with regards to the OP 5 ?
Can I expect 2 years and then in the third year be advised to flash a custom rom (I'm sure there will be plenty).
USB Audio
Just got the phone today only to discover that it USB audio doesn't work out of the box. Had USB audio working fine on the OPO but I can't seem to find a way of getting it to work in my car.
I've ran through all of the options and even rooted it to try and mess with a couple of .xml files but still nothing. Anyone have any ideas?

I've heard that a device teardown revealed that they are still using the same dash charge part in the OP5 as in the OP3(T).
I guess that won't be a problem.

Hey guys, I want to root and probably even flash a custom rom on the OP5. But I had to learn the hard way that flashing a custom rom can damage the device hardware.
I've got my damaged Galaxy Note 4 (probably a broken motherboard according to some xda users) working now except some shut downs/ freezes thanks to a bit of practice that I've made in the last four months.
What could I do to not end up with a device with broken hardware cause of custom Roms? OP clearly says on their warranty page that rooting doesn't void the warranty but damaged hardware does.
Thanks in advance.

The OP5 is the fastest selling phone from OP according to a tweet from themselves. And the OP3(T) is still in the top ten of most popular xda threads.
We should be able to get a proper custom rom soon and good support for a minimum of three years is what I'd expect to happen for such a device.

I don't believe it has been released. The phone has general launch on the 27th so I presume that's when they will make this stuff available.
I have uploaded a TWRP backup of my system and boot though If you need that? Check the other questions and answers topic for 4.5.1 backup needed.

How long did you use Stock (I'm guessing at that time it was CyanogenMod, as OOS didn't exist), before moving onto the custom rom scene ?
Its good to know your OPO is still serving you well also

A month or something. I was frustrated with the bloat wares of Cyanogen from COS12. So I moved to official cm12. After a month Sultan dropped his cm12.1. From there on wards I was using Sultan's Builds. His ROM is rock solid,more stable than stock! For me community builds are way better than what OEMs giving us. I never tried OOS BTW

Well when you do eventually upgrade from the OPO to I'm guessing another OnePlus smartphone in the future, enjoy the massive spec increase and i'm sure Sultan's roms will be there also for you to enjoy.

The TWRP team cannot afford to buy every device made. However, TWRP is fully open source, so you may begin the porting process by using the compile guide at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32965365
Although you may be able to compile it, testing is another matter. You will need a stock recovery image to revert to when your TWRP doesn't work properly.
I have received a request and will begin porting it today, I'll need someone with an unlocked bootloader to join #twrp between 1 pm and 2 am EST for testing.
I'm still having trouble finding stock firmware, however. I may be able to get around this, I'll also see about making a full factory firmware fastboot flashable.

I uploaded all of them to MEGA now so that people don't have to endure the horror that is Baidu.
I saw there's an unofficial Cyanogenmod rom out for the Axon 7 and was wondering if there if one available for the Mini (or if the Axon 7 version will work on the Mini)?
No and no. First we need a bootloader unlock to install custom roms. Till now ZTE doesn't offer a bootloader unlock for the axon 7 mini.
I am also very interested in this and hope that soon there will be something
There is a new tool for the Axon7. Mainly for backup and writing the recovery and boot partition.
There might be some hope for the mini.
Read what I wrote about it in the thread and try the "read" feature.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/axon7tool-flash-backup-boot-recovery-t3514254
That sounds so great. I will try that at the weekend. Thank you for the information @celoxocis .

Let us know how t goes. I'm curious about if you at least read the boot and recovery using the tool.
It would mean the programmer was signed with the same key as for the Axon 7. I kinda doubt it because of the different SoC but you never know.
I'm on b21 and activated developer options for the first time, you can unlock the bootloader with a toggle of a switch, so maybe hope for a custom ROM?

Unfortunately that switch doesn't work. (At least on b12 I haven't tried b21 yet) I asked ZTE and they said that it was left over from their Chinese version of their ROM, and that they aren't "allowed" to have it work on the US model.

fallen00sniper the option in the setting doesnt allow you to root the device, it is simply for ADB (commands through usb port) at this current time I have not seen any post on XDA or else where about anyone who has successfully rooted or unlocked the Mini yet. XDA would definitely be the best place to keep an eye out on that though.

No it's not. It already fails at step 1. Downloading TWRP. There ist no TWRP for the Axon 7 mini.
Hello, ¿Any news about rooting this terminal?
Thanks
Hello,I asked ZTE about unlockoing the bootloader or rooting the terminal and this is what they answered me (google made translation):
Good afternoon,
In response to your request we will advise you that in order to enjoy the manufacturer's official warranty we must cover critical configuration options that can be modified and lead to a malfunction of the terminal.
ZTE does not guarantee the correct functioning of your terminal if you unlock bootloader; Task that we discourage. In fact, should such an unlocking be detected, our official guarantee would be invalid.
Greetings,
No hope for us at the moment.

You'll get hope if I'm able to get my hands on one. For now, you all will have to wait. Just don't give up on it if you're looking for custom Roms. It should get the same treatment as the Axon 7.

That doesn't make any sense. Why wouldn't it be "allowed" I came to this section of XDA to research which phone to buy, I guess I won't be "allowed" to buy this model, since the bootloader can't be unlocked. I know I maybe in the minority, but I still vote with my wallet. Moving along I guess....

I'm shopping around for a new phone right now actually. First thing I always do when I find one that I seem interested in, is come here search and see can the bootloader be unlocked, what kernels are available, ROMs etc. Basically what kind of community support is behind the device. This is a large part of my decision to buy a phone. ROMs and kernels don't have be available right away, but if it's locked, support tends be lacking compared to other devices, so I tend to move along.
Again I'm sure I'm a minority, but if I want to change something, I want to be able to.

Hello everyone!
I've been looking around on the forums lately and normally with every device I've had with AT&T, the bootloader has been locked and I can't do anything about it. But after looking through everything I'm assuming that something happened and now, by using T-Mobile's firmware, we can upgrade to Nougat?
I've been trying to find an official guide on how to go about doing this, as I'm not 100% confident in myself to wing it lol. I have experience with installing custom roms and recoveries and rooting in the past, but it has been awhile.
Would it be at all possible for someone to make a full list with step-by-step instructions (and links to all the downloads) on how to go about doing this? (As well as the link to the stock firmware in case something goes wrong)
I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!
I'm currently on the stock firmware 6.0.1 Marshmallow (G935AUCS4APK1) with the November 1st security patch.

I've been looking around on the forums lately and normally with every device I've had with AT&T, the bootloader has been locked and I can't do anything about it. But after looking through everything I'm assuming that something happened and now, by using T-Mobile's firmware, we can upgrade to Nougat?
I've been trying to find an official guide on how to go about doing this, as I'm not 100% confident in myself to wing it lol. I have experience with installing custom roms and recoveries and rooting in the past, but it has been awhile.
Would it be at all possible for someone to make a full list with step-by-step instructions (and links to all the downloads) on how to go about doing this? (As well as the link to the stock firmware in case something goes wrong)
I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks!
I'm currently on the stock firmware 6.0.1 Marshmallow (G935AUCS4APK1) with the November 1st security patch.

Download, place on SD, boot to recovery and update from SD. You must be on att APK1 firmware. Also no apps disabled on phone with manager or any third party app.
Best bet wipe phone, set up like normal then flash nougat.
No one takes responsibility for anyone's phone. What you do to it is at your own risk. Good luck.

These people need to be spoon fed. I get your frustration.
Hi everyone, I recently rooted my phone after becoming fed up with Motorola (my next phone will definitely be a OnePlus ) and I have now decided that I would like to install XPosed Framework. I really don't want to brick my phone, though I do have a backup, so I came here to ask anyway that has done this before. I am running Android Marshmallow 6.0 with the December security patch, by the way. So is there a way to install XPosed on the XT1575? If so please provide instructions (I already looked on XDA and could not find any helpful threads).
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Yes Xposed does work on the MXPE running 6.0 and the December update. I am running this myself. For full details on Xposed, the framework, Modules, and general information you need to go here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed. Everything you need to know should be there regarding installing and finding out about specific modules.
Be aware that we do not have the factory firmware image for the latest ROM version, if something goes wrong it is possible that you could brick the device.
In the next few months we will hopefully be getting Nougat, and Xposed does NOT work with Nougat as of this posting.

I would suggest that you download the Xposed uninstaller on your computer and push it to your phone, then flash that.
First make sure you put the uninstaller in the directory with adb and fastboot and connect your phone with a us cable.
Second boot into recovery mode on your phone
Third type into your computer's command prompt 'adb push (and then the name of the uninstaller) /'
Four go to the install section of twrp and navigate to the / directory.
Five select the file and flash it (make sure zip verification is unchecked)
If you have any problems please message me, I'll help you out.
Here's the link to the uninstaller you'll want to download: http://dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/uninstaller/xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm64.zip
If this doesn't work send me a message, I can try and help you further.

I think we have firmly established that a) Xposed works on the MXPE and b) a bear does indeed sh*t in the woods.
Can we stop this now children? I know we don't have a "Off-topic thread" for this device, but I think this thread is had enough.

We really need an "Off-topic thread"... I remember back in my Rezound days, that thread was jumpin', and full of stuff like this, something like 25k posts in a single thread called HTC Rezound OFF-TOPIC THREAD
Otherwise, a little fun is fine... but lets not bog down a thread so that if someone has an issue later, they can't find the answer because off all the OT discussion.

I am getting a Chinese OP6T that comes with H2OS in 2 weeks time. Any easy way (guide) to flash stock OOS to this Chinese phone A6010? Thanks in advance.
just unlock the bootloader and sideload the oos.zip (full) in stock recovery then flash it from there. you could also do fastboot method. works on my oneplus device since the 3/3T days.

Have you done it for oneplus 6T yourself? I was wondering whether the A/B partitions in OP6T will have a different approach to flash...
Thank you.
according to my friend chinese oneplus 6
you only need a full flash zip of oos and just local update from updater in the phone
no need to unlock bootloader
PS. and no need to factory reset too, but i still recommend to reset it
I am from China, and use Chinese OP6T (A6010) that comes with H2OS
just like fangchunxi1999 says, put full OOS zip on 6t sdcard, local update from updater in the phone setting
after finish, do a factory reset, OOS now!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! I will do the same when I get hold of my phone. I asked someone to hand carry for me.
By the way, do you root your phone too?

Interestingly enough I just bought a 6t in China and I have been thinking about this.
- Question for you. Will you still be in China? If not, or you are planning a vacation somewhere, OnePlus support will actually help you flash OOS on your device. This only works outside of China though (even if you have a VPN).
- For others: what is the big difference between H2OS and OOS? I considered flashing, but I have a trip outside of China in a week so I was thinking I can just wait until then and let OnePlus do the flash for me. For now though, I have installed all the apps I want including Google apps and a VPN. Is there any real reason I would want to flash to OOS instead of just leaving it as H2OS? Thanks for any answers.

No. I am in Malaysia. I ask someone who happen to be there to bring it back for me. Dont think there is a oneplus support Centre here.

Yes, root just after OOS first boot.

This isn't at a support center. I just asked used OnePlus support online and they can do it for you through a PC with Windows installed.

Just got Device is corrupted, dont know how to restore it back. Someone said I could use MMSDownloadTool but there was not a version for HydrogenOS. I wonder I could use this from International MMSDownloadTool but I'm so afraid I would brick my Chinese variant device.
Well here's a question. If I wanted to flash h2os onto my international unlocked op6t could I do the same method just reversed?

In all honesty, you can either:
Unlock the bootloader back and just use the device as is or sideload the OOS.zip or you can try the global tool and hope for the best, since unless you unlock, the device is unusable anyways, if someone can get the Chinese variants tool it would be a Chinese user, others can’t request it..you’re better off contacting OP via chat and push for an OS reflash until they oblige and make an appointment with a tech to remote flash for you.

Well I would guess they work vice verse, worse case it doesn’t work, you can always use the msm tool to recover.

Just follow the method mentioned in post 4 and 5. I tried it and it worked. No need to unlock bootloader if you dont want.

i found a solution, thank you anyway
I have tried de system update method, but I receive the message "The version of your selected package is lower than that of the current system. to avoid booting up failure, downgrading is not allowed"
Help!
I installed the hydrogen os a few days ago, and it was a nightmare.the boot animation was neat. And the oppo play store has more recent updates than play..
after switching to OOS, will one still get OTAs?
Where can I get the h2os full zip?
