Hey everyone!
I don't want to seem dumb, but I was wondering if it's possible to flash a custom ROM onto a T-Mobile variant of the OnePlus 6T? I am not exactly clear on if this is possible or not. I imagine that you likely need an unlocked bootloader and to be on the international OOS before flashing anything else, but I can't find anything about this easily on our forums. Whatever the specific steps / prerequisites are in order to flash a new custom ROM on the T-Mobile 6T, please let me know below. I'd very much appreciate it!
Hi,
I recently just did mine and followed the two guides below, make sure you are following them in detail.
Do this one first: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/t-mobile-6t-to-international-t3888307
Second do this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/guide-sim-unlock-t-mobile-version-type-t3915269
Then I recommend going ahead and downloading OTA 10.3.4 since you will need it prior to any custom ROM.

If you need any help please let me know and I'll assist as best as I can. I recommend checking out CrDroid or Paranoid Android Quartz.

Hi, I've been reading through the forums for the past couple days and I just have a few questions about flashing a new ROM to my phone. First of all, I'll start out by saying that I have a new ATT&T Galaxy S4 I337. It is my first Android phone so I'm still getting used to it, but I am fairly technically savvy so I believe I am capable of doing the more complex tasks.
So anyway, I just have a few quick questions. First of all, I wanted to know, if I flash a custom ROM, will I be able to restore my information afterwards from a backup taken through Kies? Such as contacts, calendars, music, apps, accounts, etc? I understand I also need a kernel backup for recovery in case of failure, but will I be able to restore personal data normally?
Next, I was a bit confused about which ROMS will work on my phone and which will not. I see there are a lot more ROMS available for the Verizon version than the AT&T version, but it seems some will work on both. Is this the case? I just want to be safe as to not cause myself unnecessary headache later.
I like the ability to customize, and I liked the idea of the Aroma installer. Are there any ROMS available for the I337 that have the aroma installer built in? Is it possible to use the aroma installer for any ROM? I was a bit confused on this.
Finally, can you guys recomend any particular ROMS? I was looking for something with a fairly stock feel, fully unlocked features and settings and cleaned up bloatware, although maybe not everything. I want something that will run cleanly and smoothly.
Thank you so much, all the information on this site has been so helpful and useful.
I have a guide, and it also has 2 threads for a starting point, check them also, before using my method. I have tested these roms to work with your device...please read the info in my guide.

You can ask questions in my thread.
Good luck sir.
Thanks you.
Hi fellow G2 users!
Got my G2 a few days ago (I know I'm about a year late) but this phone seems awesome. Model is D802.
I did a lot of reading before doing anything and so far - I am on stock LG rom, rooted, installed TWRP with autorec, flashed a volume mod and installed xposed with g2 tweaksbox. So far I have nothing to complain about.
Anyway, now come the questions - my previous phone was a sensation, and to have that fully ready to flash, it required unlocking the bootloader, S-OFF, radio flashing and root.
1. Is there anything else I need to do here? This is my main question. I did a lot of reading before posting this or doing anything to my phone. I only do something once Im completely sure I know how.
2. I've read about flashing modems of some sort and came across this link - xda wont let me post links for the 1st 10 posts... Its a site like codefi.re/autoprime
Can someone please tell me what the 4 different versions of the D802 files are?
3. Any recommended ROMS/kernels that are absolutely brilliant? I know that all devs make great roms but with specifically battery life, STABILITY, and all the LG features (like knock on and the new message reply box thing and quickmemo, etc) I have heard a lot about Pardus. Might try that out soon if I dont get any other recommendations.
4. I read about Jishnu's camera mod. The links have been deleted from his thread. Is it okay to ask if anyone has a backup? I would like to try it if possible.
5. I read about Viper Sound Mod. Is there an updated method of installing this on stock rom? The thread I found seemed outdated and half the links were invalid
Nobody?
Depends on what you want. Have you researched aosp roms? All the things you looked up are fine. Tweaks for a ton will help enrich its use but to change to a complete different operating system is what you should try out if you want to see something different. Modems usually come with the rom. Make sure you flash the correct variant for your device.
I used to be a flashaholic on my last two phones, but now that I'm finally wanting to try a custom ROM on my PH-1, I'm realizing I've forgotten the procedure.
Can someone please direct me to clear instructions for going from stock Pie to a custom ROM?
My phone's bootloader is unlocked.
I poked around on the Essential forum sections but didn't see instructions. Last time I flashed a ROM, it seemed links to instructions were usually included in the thread announcing each ROM. That's apparently not always the case now.
Thanks.
Hi there,
I just got my brand new Redmi Note 7.
It's been many years that I don't mod my Android phones and since I don't like much MIUI i would like to change OS.
So it's a silly question, i've searched for other threads but I didn't find anything (so if you find any other threads talking about this please link it to me):
I'm a newby about this, with a new phone looking for the best mod for stability and speed (used mainly for workd and daily routines - banking etc), therefore how should i proceed? How do i install TWRP or any other good recovery?
I need a fresh and simple Android OS (stock one if possible or Lineage OS)
Do i need to send an email to Xiaomi to unlock my phone? (i'm asking because i've read several times this)
I want to install also Google Camera and xposed
Thanks for the help and sorry i'f it's a double post.
Look in the guide thread
Basically u need to unlock bootloader via Xiaomi tools first. Then it's like every other phone. There is an all in one guide in the Guides section of RN7 device forum.
My guarantee on my phone has run out. I have a Galaxy S10+ exynos with one ui 4.1. Where can I start to change the rom and root my phone? Can you recommend me an up to date and safe guide?
Google could have done all of this for you.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Do you know how many results you will get if you ask google? Not all of them will be valid or up-to-date and it's hard to pick one.
I really don't understand what you're saying. I rooted my first phone thanks to articles on google. They usually don't even have to be up to date. Plus your phone is relavitely new compared to what I had.
Anyways, first look for a guide to unlock your bootloader, that's the first step.
Next, learn how to flash twrp onto your device.
Lastly learn how to flash custom roms onto your device via twrp. Custom roms can be found in your device's dev forum here on xda.
You'll need a pc, the right drivers, minimal adb and fastboot (or odin), and the required files (twrp, custom rom, gapps)
Also, you've posted this into the wrong subforum. This subforum is for rom development, it's where devs post roms. If you want to ask a question or need help then ask in the Q/A subforum.
