On the official telegram group the notes provide different firmware and I don't know which one I need to get. The entries include "firmware", "modified-firmware", "modified-pie-firmware" and "pie-firmware". I'm switching to RR Pie and I want to know which to get. I know the latest is 340.

Specifically the last release before oreo was launched. Big hydrogen os user, i love it and have my own personal custom kernel on it but due to a change in computers and data storage devices my backup zip file of hydrogen os nougat final release became corrupted and is no longer usable. Could supply a link to a download of it if anyone has it?

Check here, i think it's the official rom site http://www.h2os.com/download
Nope i checked there. Its in Chinese too so idk if theres any legacy download links. I sure miss h2os nougat. Oreo is cool and all but... Idk some things are slower. Like my preferred web browser Naked Browser.
Bumping. I'd really like to go back to nougat. Nothing was wrong with it.
Bump. Did some digging and in case anyone is a fan of h2os like i am this is the official download link

I was basically wondering if yall could put me onto roms which are 8.1 oreo based but which are still updated regularly for example like the Lineage OS 15.1 roms. Also I had a question about vendor images, from what I understand these are where the security updates and that stuff is stored, would it be possible to somehow use different vendor images with more recent updates on older roms which come with older versions, would it be possible to restore a newer vendor image using TWRP recovery or something like that on an older rom?
Thanks yall.

Security updates are not stored on the vendor. If that was the case even los wouldn't be able to apply security updates then, AFAIK they are kernel based. The only 8.1 ROM still being up date is los which you already know.
Oh I see that makes sense. I guess back porting security fixes to older ROMs is a lot of hard work then I won't even bother.

I've never even heard of anyone trying this. You wouldn't "back port security updates" you would take the most current ROM source and make a new build. When los stops making upstream changes to a ROM you wouldn't even be able to do that. You would have to take their old source and merge the security updates in yourself, since they don't any more, then make a build and hope there's no build errors for you to fix.
Because many users are repeatedly asking this and everyone needs to answer again and again, I write it up here:
This is only true for Oreo and later Custom ROMs! For nougat refer to post #3 by @TheFixItMan (thanks for the tip that users still use nougat )
You can choose between this ways (doing both is wasted time!)
- Have stock Oreo installed before flashing your ROM (for most users not an option because they already have the issue)
- Flash https://github.com/nift4/nift4.github.io/releases/tag/cedric-fp-fix over your existing custom ROM
Yes, it's so easy
do you have the fix for Lineage os 14.1, i tried this ine didn't work for me. :s

Download stock nougat firmware and flash just the following two parts
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
For fingerprint to work you need to have a base stock firmware that matches the base of the rom you are using - so in the case of lineage 14.1 that is nougat
The zip file in the op contains oero files so is for people who never bothered flashing oero firmware when they flashed an oero based custom rom
OP should explain what the zip file does (flashes the two files I've mentioned but from oero firmware) to help people understand the issue

Hi,
I have a motog5 xt1676.
I was on Nougat and I updated to Carbon Rom (after trying with lineage 17, same issue) and i have to choices:
-Doing nothing and people can hear me when i am in speakerphone but the fingerprint doesn't work.
-I patch with the first link for orea then the fingerprint work but people can't hear me when i'm in speakerphone.
Patching with nougat files does nothing...
Is there a way to edit the fix or to make a fix myself avoiding the speaker issue ?
I though to change build.prop or a way to change the way sound is mixed during call but i did'nt test changing all lines.
Do you have an other idea ?
A fix for pie ? ( Carbon is Pie when Pie is cooked too much time =D )
Thank you,
Pierre Archer
The ROM: CARBON-CR-7.0-OPAL-RELEASE-cedric-20200920-0426

As explained
If your stock rom firmware is nougat I suggest updating it to oreo to use pie custom rom
Read my post above (post number three) for full explaination
Any other issues is probably a rom issue - I don't even think carbon rom is actively supported for this device. Use lineageos/Mint os from dev section

Thank you !
Sorry, I midunderstood, I understand better now.
Then installing oreo stock ROM add more "compatibility files" to link with a pie ROM from nougat.
Lineage os is not officially supported on motog5 device, thats why i looked for carbon. But the unofficial lineage os for motog5 look like as frequently updated as "official" carbon rom. I dont know if Carbon updates are caring of hardware details and if they are released without real adaptation. Lineage os pay probably more attention to hardware because motog5 is not officially supported by lineage... Idk...

Don't be concerned too much about the terms official and unofficial
Nearly all lineageos roms will start off as unofficial - it's users who build it. It's only when they are submitted to lineageos and they add it to their build server it becomes official but its the same device tree.
The only reason the lineage os rom has not been made official is because the camera is not fully working like it is in stock rom so it doesn't meet the criteria to be submitted
I have the unofficial LOS 19.1 currently installed. Other than the lack of TWRP, I'm satisfied with it. But I see there are two other options available. official and crDroid. Is there any reason I should switch to one of those two? Are there differences in the recovery versions? If TWRP was available, I'd just make a backup of my current ROM and give the other two a try. But as it stands, getting back to my working current version isn't that simple.
Why do you have unofficial?

Because it came out first and I haven't been given a sound reason to switch. Why fix what ain't broken?
I like to use the official version. They provide weekly firmware updates.

To each his own. Personally, I don't care about weekly updates. Unless an update fixes something that I use, or it includes a major security update, I don't care about it. Manually updating every couple of months does it for me.
I am also in unofficial build for now but the official thing is making me wanna try it...but should we just flash it and format data or should be flash recovery provided too?
I would follow LineageOS guide. You will use something other than TWRP. You then use one of LineageOS. This one is quite limited but looks nice (not very important). But I don't need all the features of TWRP, I don't understand it anyway. LOL

I have multiple oneplus 6ts on Android 9.0.13, I would like to upgrade them specifically to 10.3.11. How can I do this? The built in system updates skips over that so I'm not sure.
Also, does it matter if I have the Tmobile device or not?
