is it possible to port oneplus 3/5 rom to op2? - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently thought about it, since oneplus one got porting from oneplus x. Is it possible same for oneplus 2? If yes, I'm willing to give a try. Just need someone guidance to work under.

@nicesoni_ash @xdvs23

Isn't there a zip already available from op5 to flash on op2 and its working too. So unless you plan to fix panorma on there, go for it.

Wait for real? Can I flash oos 4.5.5 of op5 in op2? I searched the google didn't got relevant thing..
Edit: I mean the whole oos not just camera

But features will be missing of course. I am not sure from which ood version it was from though.

It is not be possible because of a few reasons: You would have to modifiy an already baked rom to a completely different hardware which is only possible through reverse engineering which is illegal by the way as OOS is not fully open source and you cannot simply copy their device trees. Also we do not have an official kernel source for nougat which means that further modification would be needed to even get the rom to boot.
In the end it is not worth the effort as you probably are not able to reverse engineer the code and even if you did you would end up with a buggy rom that is even harder to fix than normal custom roms. You would have more luck creating a custom rom with an OOS like skin.

I don't think it will work because OP2 latest OOS is MM while OP5 OOS is Nougat. There is a huge incompatibility (which custom roms have to deal with, that's why it works there) so that it won't work.
It might boot but you won't get anything stable.
Even though there is MM OOS for OP3, it is very different from OP2. OP3 has NFC, and the whole OS is different.
But if you still wanna try, good luck!

Apologies. I mistakenly read cam instead of rom and my replies were about that if you notice properly. So ignore my earlier replies as other users replied, I too don't think it's possible.

Thanks for this thread. This is exactly what I've been wondering too. I am on CM based RR ROM and even though the idea of using nougat is quite appealing I'm not sure how much it's worth the whole hassle, specially given I'm too used to RR's huge set of features.
I'll check back to see if someone's answered, and surely post back if I've struck luck with a custom nougat ROM, though I have a feeling it might take some time before a custom athene ROM such as CM or CM based rolls out, and prolly it's worth the wait if I don't have to go back to stock ROM for just a few odd extra features which have largely been ported through mods/apps and implemented in custom ROMs already.

Agreed.
It will take a while for people to start working on Nougat based ROMs. From what I understand, devs are still perfecting the CM bases MM ROMs, which requires a lot of time and effort.
I don't see any Nougat ROM anytime soon, at least not as a stable daily driver. I'm sure our devs are equally thrilled but let's wait it out a little!

There is CM14 on AFH And it's uploaded by @regalstreak ...!!
Don't know anything how it works or why he haven 't shared on XDA...
Edit: It Doesn't boot... Don't use...

Which LA 14.1 is the original?

Ok I'm confused as to which dev's ROM I should use. Which lineage is the original and the most faithful to the Lineage Android sources? And which one will be the official build going forward?
Also, may I add, which TWRP is the original one? Which kernel is the original Lineage kernel? When will we get official builds for all of these?

There's no original version, as there's no Official LineageOS builds for our device. Both are close to the official builds, but as far as I can see, HydraHS build is cleaner unlike the other one that uses CAF resources.
We won't get official builds for Redmi 3S because there are not enough mantainers (people with enough knowledge or free time).
TWRP build made by fedosis is the better, try it. It supports all XDA builds and also the latest LOS 13 that, in my opinion, is the most stable custom ROM for our device.
I suggest you to wait a month or some time, at least to a point where the major bugs can be solved, like the sensors not working.

Been almost a month, though no one is willing to co-op to create a stable nougat ROM for our device. Rip.

well almost all of them are basing off AFAIK from @zwliew sources. If not fedosis then maybe zwliew will bring us Official LOS as zwliew is a developer on LOS. But @zwliew is kinda silent

Yeah we dont know why
BUT
Theres some dicussion on the MIUI forum about the Beta Testing of Nougat this end of the month for MIUI. If its true then this is our chance to have Custom Nougat Roms. Fingers Crossed
IMHO, developers have a life too. Their entire life doesn't consist of working on ROMs alone. They have family to feed as well. Nobody is paying them to make ROMs.
I am always grateful for whatever goodness I receive, but it would be unbecoming of me to ask for that goodness.
I'm just really thankful that there is a stable LA 13 ROM, because MIUI is **** and it's getting worse every update. They aren't even trying to improve it anymore.

How developer friendly in OP?

I am new to the OnePlus community. How developer friendly are their phones? I was planning to get a Pixel as my next phone, but the spec and price for th Op5 look tempting.
Can we expect TWRP support and custom ROMs on the OnePlus 5?
Considering the amount of ROMs and various other development we've been getting with the OnePlus 3/3T, I can think we can expect something similar. OnePlus is an amazing company in that sense - especially since unlocking your bootloader doesn't void your warranty. (At least with the OnePlus 3/3T).
All required sources will be released by OP shortly. It will be simple to port the trees to LineageOS, so we can build custom roms for the OP5. I will start building RR as soon as the LineageOS sources are ready
Well with op3 it took a while to get working fp sensor on aosp roms, and they still have to use camera blobs (for the people out of the loop, that means slower camera.
Of course we can expect that - every OP phone until now got HUGE support by xda-devs
But i think this time i will ony flash TWRP and use Stock OxygenOS with Magisk

You mean, as soon as we have a working TWRP build... Same here btw. But I will try to be more active here as I was in the Oneplus Two forums. Just ordered a Oneplus 5 myself .
I have had the op3t , op3. OP has been sluggish to say the least with dropping kernel sources.. if you'd like some entertainment, take a look for @fransisco Franco's lashing towards Carl Pei and OnePlus. In order for a company to be considered "developer friendly," they need to share the sources in a timely matter.. they have improved as of late.
With all that being said, there is great beta testing and support in the XDA threads from @FuNkwizard.
I'm looking forward to this op5 beast!

OP5 is shipped with OOS based on 7.1.1 Android OS.
xposed is available for <marshmallow.

They released the kernel source on github on day 1. That's amazing.

They really should release the camera sources so custom ROMs can utilise them. This is a big annoyance for me.
Device Trees and Kernel Sources been uploaded yesterday.

Do we have any visibility of which Developers/ROM teams are planning on supporting the OnePlus 5?
I know there will be great support for this device, especially with the kernel sources and device tree already out but curious as to whether people like Sultan are making the move up to 5 or staying put on the 3/3T?

Just got the information that the OP5 will be officially maintained by another RR team member. I'm thinking of creating an unofficial project now, but I'm not sure yet.

Ordered my OP5 yesterday and asuming Varund will launch his Ressurection Remix rom for it. Always used his rom on my OPO. Great stuff
Anyone knows if OP will also release all the dual camera stuff?

OOS 4 ABOVE for op2(nooob)

@Spannaa just asking as u are a dev why can't u mirror the op3 /3t Roms of 4.0 above and make it available for op2 sorry for asking I'm noob is it possible?

I think OP wanted to ask why it's not possible to just clone the source code from a newer oxygen version (from oxygen open source) and adjust it for oneplus2 (like dev's do it with new devices and Lineage/AOSP/Other roms).
I guess it would be possible (as devs took the oxygenOSS device, kernel source and adjusted it for android 7.1.1 AOSP, so it should be possible to do it the other way too?) but its an incredible amount of work to even get it to compile..
Edit: Btw, is my hypothesis right? xD

I think the main problem would be device drivers like HAL3 for the camera. Yes, we already have it on N, but it isn't as good as it would be like OEM

They already did xD Though it's very device specific. Oneplus oxygenOS opensource

I think camera is the smallest problem (my pictures are as good on HAL1 as on HAL3). But if someone could port this, it would be insane (just because OOS N for Op2)

If you look at the history of op2, it already is a shame for Oneplus xD.
I think custom roms had the networkdrop fix before official oos?
As all those users who bought an op2, with all those problems and bad support (3/3t/5 became more supp from op..) it would be just fair if op opensources all they have. But thats a dream i know xD.

Oh ok.
It will NEVER work to just instal a rom from a different device (except for same phones with different name, e.g. Mi4s/Mi4c) ....

Would it be possible to port "oxygen-os" to the Galaxy s8 ?

So, would it be possible to port the oxygenos from the Oneplus one phone to the galaxy ?
I dont think It's possible and I am not sure why would you want OxygenOs on S8. It's basically pure stock android with subtle customization. If you want something close to stock; checkout the Google edition ROM.

why? it just need maintainer and it can probably be port i think... unlikely a man will make this oxygen os for oneplus for the s8 using port but maybe it can happen.. im no good in oneplus but i think it can easily be port just need maintain! never say no with out saying why on xda man.. come on bro dont be negative like this...oxygen os is aosp like and lineage is booting with alpha build.. so maybe someone could port oxygen os when we get stable lineage.. sorry just had to rant this..
It's probably possible, but no one will do it. It's too much of a hassle when you can just build a clean AOSP ROM with a few modifications similar to OxygenOS.

I never said I am against it. It's just not worth the hassle when you have a Google edition ROM available. As I mentioned earlier, Oxygen OS is basically stock with few bells and whistles. If you think its easy to port; I say go for it :good:. New ROMs are always welcome.
