Working now....
Awesome! I'm trying
Ok so I tried this rom finally! Here's my feedback:
First of all I'm a bit confused why is this called cyanogenmod 14, because its not cm. It looks like the vanilla aosp from a one plus device or maybe nexus. It has no cm features.
Secondly like stated in the op this is indeed for chinese storage. I can confirm lvm does not work.
Stock gallery does not show all the picture folders. However quickpic from playstore works fine.
Music players can't detect songs on my sd card. But I can play them from file explorer.
I didn't test bluetooth for now.
Other than these things, this is really smooth and stable for an initial test build. So kudos to the dev for bringing N so quickly for our devices! You can use this as a daily driver

Looks like the Russian one is working for me, hopefully it doesn't stop mid download! Thanks for your help
Just to confirm process from RR with LVM would be;
1) Use tools to perform chinese unify (Should wipe entire device)
2) Flash TWRP
3) Flash the new CM14 Rom, gapps and all that good stuff
4) Profit???
Ok well I'm flashing the rom now and everything has gone through without issue! the tool only took about 2:50 for me.
For anyone trying to get English in twrp, second from bottom on the right and then select the globe icon at the top
Please, can someone explain the difference between chinese storage partition and LVM? Not technically, of course. I want to know about partitions and their sizes.
Thanks again.

From what I can tell the LVM method is a linux storage method that allows data to be stored in a varying sized partition by allowing on the fly resizing. The chinese method of dealing with the sotorage partition looks pretty much the same, if you look at the free app storage space it will be only around 100mb or less, but as you install more apps more space is allocated so it appears there is the entire device storage available.
I would assume the only difference would be in the way the Rom sees and interacts with the device storage. But on the most part there doesn't seem to be any real world issues, everything seems to work great and I wouldn't know it wasn't running on the LVM partition.

New unofficial version
After install some times in nany ways and settings I confirmed that new 4.2 version is good for defy hardware and custom kernel.
I still worry when Quarx2k implements the CM feautures if this is bug the rom.
But now...
1 - With or without gapps (4.2 or 4.1.2) the initial settings show erros.
2 - GSM signal is very weak, but phone tottaly functional.
3 - Widgets are not full sized on screen ( all go to left on screen).
4 - Phone with lot of memory and flows very good.
Where can I download gapps 4.2?
I hope the data dropouts i have in CM10 will be solved in CM10.1 but dont have my hopes up to high because they been there so long now that i dont even know when they started, might have been already on CM9 but im not sure.
Another thing that worries me a bit is that the system space is not big enough while internal storage atleast for me is on over 1GB, possible to make the system space bigger?
Cheers?

We can't resize system rom, because we have locked bootloader & i think 2ndboot will not help. Solution - unistall not need system apps, hint: unistall CMWallpapers - it will free about 10MB in SROM
Could this app solve the SD problem?

Unfortunately I'm not the developer of this ROM so I can't take the logcat. MaclawStudio team could handle that, (I'm just sharing the ROM) , but I'm sure within the coming weeks it will be almost bugless Bluetooth seems to be a general bug for now, I'm also having issues with it.

try CWM 5 from MMB
For those of you who have trouble installing this, this is how i did it (not saying it will work for you but it worked for me).
First of all i might say that i used CWM 5.0.2.6.
1) I booted in to CWM
2) Format system (option is found in mount and storage i believe)
3) Full wipe/factory reset
4) Clean cache and dalvik
5) Install the rom
6) Clean cache and dalvik
Reboot phone and wait for it to start, when i got my phone started a noticed a lack of Gapps so i once again rebooted
in to recaovery and installed this Gapps
Im not taking any responsibility for what happens to your phone if you follow these steps only i can say is that they worked for me
I have installed it over Modded Cm10.1, with all necessary wipe's.
btw. Why KikKat if we cant get it main feature - ART. ?

1. The "*##*37847#" method doesn't work for me since I'm on 1.2.8i , thus cannot verify the screen model
2. My phone is x9076 int'l, manufactured in december 2014
3. I have the "bleached screen" bug on 3rd party ROMs and namelessTWRPs
4. The twrp-x9076 takes only half of a screen area (it does work though, but still identifies my phone as find7a which is incorrect)
5. you still didn't describe the difference between the other two
I tried flashing CM12 nightly with twrp-x9076 (had to remove assert from update script). No good - same as before, bleached screen and such. So this particular recovery seems to be useless for anything other than backup/restore and rooting (which is awesome, but still not what I'd like to have access to).

you have to wait CM update their drivers , otherwise it just .... don't work.
I also have an issue with this and have installed this recovery and its fixed the problem. Now we wait for custom ROM developers to catch on.... I'm going to keep myself glued to cyanogen to see if they change anything!

Same here. Other than the official beta rom there seems to be nothing available for us. I am seriously considering returning the Oppo since I can't even get hold of 1.2.8i (only stable version which ships with the phone).
So sad... I really want to use 5.0 on my OPPO Find 7. I've reached out to Cyanogen but had no replies, reached out to other ROM developers only to either be ignored or have my question washed away by a sea of people complaining that they can't get a game to work on their phone.
Just found out that cyanogen is working on the new oppo find 7 with new lcd panel issue. So anyone disappointed they'll have it sorted soon hopefully!
Does the offical TWRP and CM support this find7 with new LCD????
Any updates on this? I have managed to get the official AOSP ROM working but nothing else unfortunately.
Double the question. Lack of working TWRP is just fatal to any tinkering.

Test with adb (requires root):
Code:
adb devices
adb shell
su
cat /proc/devinfo/lcd
the answer for me (X9006 with COS 2.0.8i) is
Code:
Device version: R63417
Device manufacture: JDI
close the shell
Code:
exit
exit
Maybe if the ROM is compiled from source, the extra driver could be included? I am noob to this so if someone experienced could take a look that'd be great!
Just found this thread and didn't read much.
I am on unified storage (stock 2.0.8I). Are these recoveries compatible (unified partition)?
And yes, I have the new LCD screen...
Thanks

Yes they are compatible with LVM, using it with the official AOSP rom since it's been the only way for me to get Lollipop so far, will probably test out the new beta ColorOS 2.1 Lollipop ROM as well.
EDIT: Actually just noticed some issues with it, can't mount internal_sd or data partitions and thus can't back up, avoid. I thought I'd backed up on LVM but clearly not.
Speaking of ROMs... I've taken the screen driver of the original Oppo kernel from the github and added it to the cm12.1 kernel (ie overwritten the cm12 driver with the Oppo one), I'm now compiling it from source and will report back if this works. If so, this will mean working Cyanogenmod for the new panel!

Twrp cant seen to find my internal storage. Im using unified storage setting on colorOS 2.1
It looks like official LineageOS images are beginning to roll out for Find7.
It's all very exciting, but with the early state of the LineageOS project there isn't much information around - searches here were fruitless and the official wiki is just a template.
Has tried the build yet? Any clues about LVM support?
I end up with a bricked phone. Initially LineageOS showed sdcard0 as corrupted. Then after few reboots was about 90Mb and every app complained. I booted to TWRP and tried to install it again but SDCard ( external ) is not possible to mount. I tried to fastboot load old twrp but I end up with Partition not found error. So I assume LVM is not working and installing LineageOS is risky.
Autofixing partitioning tools failing too now. So Looking for new phone.

Install LineageOS ROM's (or any CM based ROM) under LVM is not risky: It's completely useless. Neither LineageOS nor CM support LVM, and possibly never support it, so if you want to install this ROM first you have to unLVM your phone.

Yes, I suspected as much. Any reports of success on a stock-partitioned phone?
I was just thinking. How dificult it is to add LVM support to Lineageos ? they sources are on github so question is how LVM integration works. Maybe it is possible to create a patch for existing roms.? Is it ?

Hi, I'm not sure if it's the right section where to post such a thread but I didn't found a better one for my problem.
I flashed lineage-14.1-20170213-nightly-find7s-signed.zip on my rooted Find 7 (2k version so Find 7s) with TWRP following all the standard steps (full wipe, ROM and gapps install, wipe cache/dalvik and than reboot).
Than when the ROM flash was finished (it took not as much as I thought) I rebooted and my screen become white with a grey OPPO logo in the middle and purple "powered by android" at the bottom (the usual power up screen but with inverted colors) and when I touch the screen it makes quick flashes with flashing black horizontal lines and it keeps being stuck in that way for minutes (way too much and it keeps doing that also after many reboots). The only way to recover the phone is to flash again Color OS (Android 5.0).
So i was wondering what's the problem with that ROM? How can i upgrade my old Android 5.0 to a newer 6.x or 7.x? Is there any rock solid ROM compatible with my F7s that I can flas with no such problems ?
Thankyou all for help!
OmniROM 6 is a mature and solid daily driver with the option to try OmniROM 7 which is still being improved regularly. Arguably the best ROM for Find 7.

It also has LVM support which allows you to merge your partitions so you will have more than 3gb of space for apps.
I've been running it for months, there are a few things that I miss from previous roms but is very stable and since this phone is getting old the ROM choices are getting slim. It's also the only one I can find that still supports LVM.

Thankyou both for helping me I found a list of omnirom ROMs in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/find-7/orig-development/omni-testbuilds-7a-7s-t3237065 , can i choose one of the last 6.0.1 to be sure it will work or can I trust the 7.1.1 updates?
You can trust both! And im not a hyper flashholic....
Just another few questions, LVM means that i can unify partitions in order to have more than 3 GB on device memory, right? I found that thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55187001&postcount=558 is it better to use the .iso or the .zip to apply LVM? And when do I have to apply the LVM setup, before or after flashing the new ROM/Gapps?
Thanks again
