it also apears tha Noise Canceling breaks upon fresh flash of a Deodexed ROM. How to Fix

@Envious_Data I've been away for a while but, this is a great idea m8. I also think; would it also be a good idea to 'link in' the rooting info (like creating a big data base)? Cause on a cursory glance through the Q&A thread there are tons of the same Q's being asked (especially on rooting .167 firmware. I did it in 4 steps without creating a rooted zip). It doesn't have to be fancy m8 just a thing like "Rooting info here " (Isn't a link, just text colour). Anyways good idea m8:highfive: (wish I'd thought of it lol)

How to Fix Noise Canceling
So from what ive tested this method hasnt failed me once.
Requirements:
Flashtool
How to use flashtool
Instructions:
1. Download a FTF of your choice which matches the rom of your choice.
2. Wipe your Data/Cache Via Recovery
Next couple parts will guide you through rooting for locked bootloader
3. flash pre-rooted 167 rom via recovery
(if recovery is installed)(if not downgrade to 314 root and install recovery
6. power off your device and flash the rest of the FTF (Exclude Data because it will wipe your internal storage )
7. From Recovery Flash your ROM of Choice
8. Noise Canceling Should still work, it has from my testing
Noise Canceling Does break when you flash another rom so you will have to go through this process again
This Guide only Applies to stock

Battery life in 3.12 seems to be much better than before in 167

To use for a long time at least 1 week and then we can conclude.

Just compare files' size in two rom, .167 and 3.12, seem it has no difference. Like I said, I guess it just an update to fix signal in Taiwan coz I see it has different baseband

But this baseband maybe can fix our batterydrain.

I'm at RussiaNBeaR 7.3, based on stock .184 firmware. I miss the PixelMaster app in the RR (and, more precisely, XOSP - my preferred rom), so I come back to stock based. Apparently you can jump from .184 and the first MM build to this ROM (Google Translate, please dont fool me).

To unbrick your phone, try this: [Guide] Un-brick both (Soft/Hard) bricked Zenfone 2 ze550ml/ze551ml
Apparently, the custom MM ROM has the same implications the official one. I was thinking to flash raw image like the @Russiamen upgrade guide. Maybe this way the system would be closest to stock and reduce the brick chances.

Paranoid Android 6.0.1 [Xperia Z2]

Sharing you the Good News from PA Team.
We are launching brand spanking fresh. All new features. New team members. New everything and we have made sure that everything that we are releasing has been polished to our best.
The main features and enhancements that you will probably end up noticing are our custom Quick Settings tile reordering functionality, floating window support, immersive mode, the new on-the-spot interface and CM Theme Engine.
Quick Settings tiles can be managed with ease - you can reorder the tiles by simply long pressing them, remove them by dropping them in the trash bin and add them back in from the add panel. The hidden tiles will be out of your way when checking the notifications but will still be usable from the add panel without any hassles if you want to do that all of a sudden.
You can make an application float either by long pressing a notification and tapping the floating button or by tapping the floating button for the application in the recents list. Additionally, you can make peeking (heads-up) notifications open floating windows by enabling that behavior in the "Floating peek" tile.
Those are not the only changes and features we have added. There are a variety of improvements to CAF devices (OnePlus, OPPO and others) which add custom kernels, advanced gesture and buttons control and more to provide a great experience on those devices. Of course we have spent a lot of attention on making all the visual details look right and on making all the functionality work right.
Over the months we have gained a bunch of new team members. We are now ready for all varieties of work - be it low level, aesthetics, user experience, motion design, testing or anything in-between. What we strive for is the best and we are stronger than ever to reach that.
On Paranoid Android 2016 launch we are supporting popular Nexus devices (6P, 5X, 6, 5, 4, 7 2013, 9) and the OnePlus family (One, 2, X and 3) along with some Sony devices. The lineup is this way to make sure we release the best possible experience on all the devices we release for. No compromises, pure greatness.
We highly recommend everyone to use OpenGapps full version (do not use stock). Nexus 6P users need to make sure their vendor partitions are up-to-date (6.0.1). Our Nexus 5X builds come with a prebuilt vendor image so no worries for you folks!

unloked bootloader is necessary
1 copy the zip in the sd card (the rom and the gapps)
2 reboot on recovery (use advance recovery highly recommended twrp)
3 make backup (just in case if anything goes wrong) then make a full wipe (dalvik cache, system, cache and data)
4 flash the rom zip, have done this, flash the gapps
5 then reboot system, it takes some minuts thats all.
good look:good:

Hum... Im getting Error 7 and I cannot find any "assert" line in the "updater-script"... does anyone know how to fix it?

what about camera?

Camera works, and launches quickly. It supports 20MP resolution in 4:3, but only 720P 30FPS video.
Phone handset mode doesn't output audio, but speakerphone works.
NFC is not working.
exFAT support for the SD card seems to have disappeared, so you'll have to be formatted as FAT32.
Recovery disappeared after installing.
Installing the SuperSU zip file after installing pa_sirius-6.0.2-20160731-signed.zip and GApps appears to have failed, which means that I have an unrooted device, no recovery mode, and no way to get either back without going to a factory image.
Other than that, seems smooth.

Can you please post some picture samples from front and back cam?
Thanks

Any reviews?

Rom is smooth. Has some useful features such as the long press quick settings management. I like the battery icon (lol, yeah). otherwise looks like AOSP except for CMTE. Camera is better than all custom MM roms I have tried but picture quality is still poor. Focus works though which is a plus. Can definitely be daily driver for people who aren't big on camera quality.

Oos 7.1.1 0b3

Hi everyone,
First of all, we want to extend a huge thank you to all of you who have been participating in our beta program. It's been a huge success. By sending in your feedback, bug reports, and general thoughts, you've made OxygenOS even better, and we're making improvements faster than ever before. Today, we have a particularly exciting announcement: Open Beta 3– built on Android Nougat 7.1.1 - is available now for the OnePlus 3T. (Note: Link to the OnePlus 3 post*here)
Key updates in this build:
Upgraded to Android 7.1.1
New Shot on OnePlus wallpaper option
Gallery Improvements
New photo editor with watermark and photo straightening options
Newly added media will be highlighted in Photos section
Image location will be displayed on grid view
Media can be grouped by month and year
Folders and individual media can be hidden
General bug fixes
Known Issues and Fixes
Android pay not able to work on London TFL/Tube
This can be resolved by updating the app via Play store
Compatability issues with certain third party apps
Please visit the download page here:
http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3t/oneplus_3t_oxygenos_openbeta_3/
If you’ve already flashed a previous Open Beta build, you will receive this update via OTA. If you haven’t, you will need to flash this build by ADB sideload. Your data may transfer, but there is always a possibility of losing personal data, so be sure to backup all of your important data before flashing this build. As stated before, once you flash the Open Beta, you’ll continue getting Open Beta OTAs.
Please follow the link below for the UI/UX experience survey. We’d really appreciate a few minutes of your time, as it will help us make OxygenOS even better. One last thing: this is a limited program, so we may disable this download link once we receive enough feedback.
- Feedback on UI/UX:*https://goo.gl/forms/rj3OMW2eywKGoNfI2
Note: If you flash this Open Beta build, you’ll receive Open Beta OTAs (but not official OTAs). You’ll need to manually (clean) flash back to our official builds to continue receiving official OTAs. Rolling back to official OxygenOS versions require wiping data and cache.
Thank you for your patience and as always, we look forward to hearing your continued feedback in the bug reporting forum here:*https://forums.oneplus.net/feedback/.
Thank you for helping us build a better OxygenOS.
Never settle.

If I have Official ROM but just rooted, and TWRP installed, can I flash only OOS 4.1.3 OTA Zip to get the update?
