Many of you asked how to flash latest official Oxygen OS rom with macOS or other Linux distros. Hence, I wrote this step-by-step guide which would allow you to restore easily to the latest stock ROM. This guide works for macOS, linux and also windows (for them who don't want to use the MSM tool).
The main advantages of this method are:
Directly flash the latest stock rom available on the official OnePlus web site (so no time spend on updating after flash and mobile data preserved by downloading a single latest rom and no updates),
Flash the OS on both slots a/b needed in case of modding (so no time spend on flashing twice).
I have uploaded the guide on {Mod edit} and here you can find the link (just skip the ads when they appear):

Hi there,
this message is target to you that are about to develop a new rom (veteran must already know that)
These are some special rules that you have to impress in your head before clicking on "Open New Thread" with [ROM] in title:
If you are about to post a new Rom you must be in compliance with XDA rule and with good sense:
New Roms thread must have:
- Exactly say which base rom do you used : Stock, custom from another developer.
- Ask permission to use that rom as your base to the original Developer(s).
- Give credits to Original Developer(s) in your first post:
(eg: Credits and thanks for this Rom goes to XXXXX
- Give credits, if possible, to people that you grabbed: scripts, themes and apps.
- You rom MUST BE free of paid apps, warez is not tollerated here.
- Your first post must have as more info that you can, " this is my rom" and a link is not tollerated.
- Thread Title : " [ROM][date of release]xxxxxxxxxxx[/b]
As a user of this thread you must read this (it isn't invisible), so i'll take this as accepted by everyone.
I'm bored of reports on people that don't follow the respect in work of other user and basically, with this thread you don't have other excuses.
Every ROm thread found without those (simple) rules will be closed and links deleted without furter notice.
Bonus rules:
- adfly links are not allowed.
- If a Rom are found by us illegal for XDA, every user is not allowed to have the link of that in your signature.
Feel free to pm me for any clarification.
Thanks for your cooperation.
The following are reasonable formats that are suggested when posting a new ROM. We expect your ROM post to look somewhat professional and easy to understand.
1. Requirements (bootloader version, radio version etc)
2. State that it's from an official manufacturer or source base (stock ROM or AOSP-like source).
3. Thread shows a clear overview of changes made, in a way that users can see what has changed.
4. Explicit installation instructions.
5. ROMs need to identify what kernel they are using. If 100% stock then they must state that.
6. If custom kernel they must provide a link to the kernel on XDA (if available) or a link to the kernel source. This is required by GPL. Stock (untouched) kernels can link to the manufacturers source (if available).
7. At least 2-4 images (screen-shots) 1 of which must be of system/device info. Do not use photo hosts thay deluge users with ads and popups when they select the image. You can either attach the images, or use a hosting service such as photo-bucket for example.
8. Links to downloads. A link to a direct download is preferred. Linking to external websites home pages are not allowed, it must be linked to the Downloads page. Also use of "ad-driven" (adfly for example) or "commercial" sites are mostly not allowed. Registration on some sites "may" be allowed, but is subject to XDA Moderation approval.
9. Credits for sources used. Very important.
10. Keep your "asking for donations to a limit. You already have a "Donate" button.
Simply posting a link to some download site "here it is, download it", is not allowed.
Any questions, please feel free to contact any moderator.
