OxygenOS vs OxygenOS Community - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

This is going to sound REALLY dumb to you guys but I really have Googled a LOT and cannot find an answer.
SO I am expecting to be a oneplus 3 owner sometime next week. I want to get up and running quickly when it arrives so I need to chose my OS.
I want to give OxygenOS a try (I have used CyanogenMod on all my other devices).
What is the difference between OxygenOS Official and OxygenOS Community?
Is one open source? or is the 'community' more of a 'beta' build?
Not looking for suggestions what to run, just want to know the differences between the two OxygenOS variants
Cheers alll !!

oxygen os is the more stable build intended for mass release and community build is sort of a beta software which still has some issues here and there.

I got my OP3 yesterday, and have been debating giving 3.5.2 a try, since the reports are all that it's pretty solid and daily driver worthy. But 3.2.4 has been running so smoothly so far that I think I'm going to just hold off for now. Then again, I could change my mind tomorrow morning and flash all the things.
Ultimately, it comes down to how willing to deal with bugs you are, because it's technically BETA software, and they will be there, and how much you want some of the new features they've rolled in like shooting 1080p 60fps video. That one could be big for you if you shoot much video - because they seem to have the OIS actually working in 1080p now, whereas it is pretty bad in stock 3.2.4.

The new community build rocks (3.5.2) I had all version and the last community is the best for me, plus you have 60 fps 1080p with camera and its really impressive. The rom is really smooth. Its just my opinion after but I tried a lot of rom (miui, h2os,cm13,cm14) and I'm really happy with the community build even without root

Is it possible for you to post a screenshot of this new "lock screen dialer UI"? This has been interesting me since I heard about it. Gonna maybe flash to 3.5.2 when it hits freedomOS.
Thanks.

I know antutu tells nothing Just a Small notice.
With original i got 140k in antutu. I. Community pushed 155k.
It feels More snappy. And it seems the battery holdsup beter. But iam only a 2days op3 user.

The main problem with the Community Build is if you want OTA updates going forward you have to flash the stable build, once it goes live, meaning you have to start from scratch again.
Given the stable build is only a week or so away, and there's not too many changes in the Community Build you may as well wait for the OTA now, in my view anyway.

No accent color, but you have dark, light and default theme.

Thanks for confirming. I hope they do add the old ones back. The new accent colours look very dull and pale.

Have some Dev on oneplus forums confirmed that stable build is a week away? I'm thinking of flashing the community build but if the offical build is coming, I'll wait.

On they haven't but the latest build seems so stable you'd hope OP would release it as OTA soon.
TBH if you haven't downloaded yet you may as well now wait, given the updates don't look that extensive.

Yes I've been on 3.2.5 and its been running extremely smooth with great battery so I guess I'll wait for another week or so.

Just because the community build contains the latest updates from OnePlus and it is not heavily tested for any presence of bugs, doesn't mean that it has bugs. The 3.5.2 community build, for instance, has no more bugs than 3.2.4, if any.

I will flash tomorrow last 3.5.2 build and there aren't bugs. Future update will be only ported of old features in 3.2.4 build. Now they move on some better colors, trasition and more oneplus style app like the newfull filemanager .

I haven't tried the latest 3.5.2 of the community build, but one thing I didn't like when I tried 3.5.1 was the quick settings. I don't like the small quick settings that appear with one swipe, and I don't like having to swipe twice to access the settings icon. Is there any way to change this in the community build?

No it's still there is 3.5.2 and since it's a feature from nougut I don't think it will go away.

the quick toogle CAST SCREEN is not present in the comm. build.
Is possible to add to the toggle notification panel, and add more than 9 icon?

The comunity build has got many more features but some bugs, for example: i cant use LTE on the newest community build. And the UI is diferent, it doesnt look like stock android anymore.

just in case
I just flashed this, so not much to say at the moment, but it works. I'll update this post as I use it more.
It'd be nice if you can get the CM10.1 keyboard. The stock keyboard doesn't allow long pressing for numbers and symbols.
Is it just me or are the keyboard clicking sounds different? Anyway, this thing is slippery fast. I like it.
I just restored back to CM10.1, but then I already missed the smoothness of this ROM. lol. Really enjoy this ROM. I hope you stay around.
Didint flash this based on using all the roms available right now, the biggest issue is wifi not reconnecting after sleep. I'm currently on jellybro. It's the most stable and reliable, well some nightly releases are better than others. The available oc kernal is not entirely smooth or bug free. So if you can somehow fix or create a rom with a good custom kernal, you have something going here.

I always feel like I'm setting up a tent in someone's living room when I go into a forum like that. So I start small and try to get a feel for it. It didn't seem like there was any lack of ROMs and I misread the couple comments I got I guess. Thanks.

Well, there are definitely a lack of ROMs on the N10. There may be a total of at most 10 ROMs (and I think that number is more than there really is). The N10 is a great device that isn't seeing the developer support that I expected it to see. Yeah, it's a tablet, but I was expecting to see much more variety for a tablet that a lot people consider to be the best Android tablet on the market. So, the lack of ROMs is disappointing, and when I see a dev like you whose fantastic work I've seen on the GNex venturing in to the N10 forums, I definitely welcome it and most certainly desire it.
Your ROM will definitely help the N10 developmental and consumer community grow, so seriously stick around!
Also, I watched Muzzy in German when I was in high school.
I was so confused when I saw MMuzzy ROM in the N10 thread. Thought I had clicked on the GNex thread. Haha.
I've been running your rom on my GNex for several weeks. Can't wait to flash this and see how it goes.

LOL! I hated that stupid green monster when I was younger. Now I just think it's funny.
Thanks for the support. I think that it'll pick up. It's a beautiful tablet and I'd rather read on one of those then the N7's screen.

LOL I think I've watched about two episodes or so of Muzzy. I don't remember much but I just remember that there were a royal family of mice and that evil guy who clones the princess and my God, I wasn't even sure what I was watching at that point.
And yes, the N10 screen is absolutely great. I just wish the colors were a bit more saturated (a teeny bit more), but regardless, it's a great device.
Hey- don't give up on us yet! I'm a big fan of your GNex rom and have been looking for something like it on the 10. Have downloaded and flashed- so far so good. Will follow-up tomorrow with any issues after i've run it for a while...
Thanks again for the hard work!

I just notice Craig Gomez had a ROM in here. If I had seen that earlier when I was trying to decide I wouldn't have bothered. That's the ROM i'd run if I had a Nexus 10. He's helped me out countless times with all sorts of technical issues.
Haven't flashed yet but I'm right about to, its great to see another well known dev here on the N10 forums making us all a fantastic new ROM! I have heard only good things about you and your work mmuzzy, thanks for starting up here with us! I'm sure all us on the N10 forums will greatly appreciate your work into this build and will be excited to see future releases from you. Thanks again man!!
downloading now thanks for the great sounding rom. have your gnex rom on my wifes phone right now and about to rock this on my n10. im gonna wipe my internal "SD" as im being plagued with either not charging sometimes or tablet wont wake up. ive been loyally flashing PA's rom with every update and i think its time to try this bad boy out. as the others have stated, will post any discrepencies i find, if any.
I'm going to flash your ROM too! It looks to be exactly what I'm looking for: clean, fast, and stable. Until I really get a feel for my new Nexus10, I'm not ready to fight with some pre-alpha, nightly ROMs at the moment. Just wanna cruise on a buttery highway for a while! Your work is appreciated, keep it up
@mmuzzy did you get yourself a N10? Nice to see you here...

​
[SIZE=+2]This thread has been created for people to share issues,
question and help
while using SlimKat 4.4 for the T Mobile Galaxy S4​[/SIZE]
PLEASE make sure to thank the entire Slim Team for their dedication to this ROM
Please do not clutter any Development thread with non related development chatter
*​
I am not the developer for SlimKat, SlimBean, Slim Fast, Fat Boy Slim, or anything else with Slim in the title.
This is NOT a development thread and as such is designed to be a little more noob friendly than a development thread. Please don't hessiate to ask any questions you have here, but please do try to search first to see if there is a known sollution to your issue before posting a new question about it.
If you have development related bug issue, send an bug report to the Slim team. See post 2 for instructions.
Please see this note from the Slim development team and PLEASE take it to heart!
Please note: SlimKat and KitKat in general is in an early stage. Still some apps are not compatible and still some devices have to fight with smaller issues on the other hands a lot devices are already quiet stable. Whatever please keep in mind that this builds are labled for a reason as beta builds. As a lot slim user know we only tag our builds stable when they are already 100% stable and all features are back. But you will be surprised how stable it is already

Indivudal apps need to be tweaks to run on KitKat. If you have a favorite app that doesn't work, check with the developer of that app first to see if it runs on 4.4 before asking why it doesn't work here. (If it was last updated in February of 2012 or something like that, it hasn't been tweaked for KitKat.). In short, it's probably not the rom's fault.
As of December 8th Blk_Jack is back on XDA with a new thread for Slim Kat!
Click here to view it
That is a development thread. Keep your posts there development related. That does not mean "How come my phone no boot?" or "Thx for this ROM iz smooth like butta!". That means specific issues tht haven't been reported 900 times previously. Search that thread for a similar post to yours BEFORE posting!!!
Reporting Bugs:
The Slim Team has a very specific way they ask that bugs be reported. You can do it right through the bug report feature of the ROM. But do it this way...(This is right from the Slim site. It is the best way to make errors known to the Slim developers)
When you submit a bug you want to make sure that nothing from your side is causing it. Otherwise your developer might be hunting a bug which doesn't really exist. The best way to achieve this is by doing the following.
1. Make a nandroid backup.
2. Perform a full wipe (factory reset + wipe /system)
Now we have two different ways, 3A and 3B, depending on what kind of problem you're having.
3A. When you're having a problem with a ROM function, flash just the ROM without GAPPS etc. and boot back into the system. You will boot directly onto the homescreen.
3B. When you're having a problem with a 3rd party app in combination with our ROM then flash the ROM and GAPPS.
Boot now back into the system. You will boot to the setup wizard.
Log in to your Google account but make sure that you untick "Restore from my Google Account to this phone/tablet".
Finish the setup and open the playstore and download only the app you're having problems with.
Now when you're done with either 3A or 3B proceed with the following:
4. Now reproduce the bug (if possible more than once). After you reproduced the bug go into settings and SlimCenter and click on Bugreport. A bugreport.zip will appear on your sdcard in a directory called Slim.
5. Attach this zip in the correct thread along with your report. Please also write detailed description how we can reproduce the bug.
6. Restore your backup from point 1 and wait for a fix (don't ask for ETAs).

I know the device maintainers have been testing the S4 builds for a couple of weeks now and making improvements among their team. So you're not getting an early Alpha release here or anything.
The maintainer for the international S4 is very active in the i9505 forums and has been talking about SlimKat for a while, saying how stable it already is. That's pretty standard for the Slim team. They do not putz around with releasing buggy builds.
That said I'm sure it's not perfect yet. SlimKat isn't going to be 100% error free just yet and isn't going to help you create sustainable cold fusion or anything like that (yet...). So be prepared for a little wonkiness early on. But if history is any indicator, you can probabyl expect a really nice experience from from teh start.
Running good so far!! Missing some things from SlimBean that I really liked but being in beta they will eventually come. Will be my DD assuming I don't have any issues.

What do you see is missing so far? (I haven't even flashed it yet. I won't have the time for another 5 hours until I get home from work and put my daughter to bed. But I'm drooling with anticipation!)

The main things are all the status bar tweaks (hiding battery and signal bars), no theme engine, quick settings are missing a few things, widgets on the lock screen. All I can think of right now.
Still a very solid rom though. Currently will be my DD.

You can enable the widgets for your lock screen. Only bug I'm confronting is that NFC doesn't turn off some times. I have to click it a couple times through the quick toggles. Besides that, I get FC's with gapps but that's been mentioned before.

No theme engine? What are we?
ANIMALS!? What's next, do we have to eat our young?!
I kid! I kid! I understand it's a beta. I'm just messing around. It is funny though, I've gotten so used to my orange themed Androids that its a shocking concept to think I might have to use the standard blue for a week! The horrors! :laugh: (Again, I'm kidding. If anyone takes this seriously relax)
I do look at people who love TouchWiz and I can't figure out how they put up with not being able to change the colors. This is like the single greatest feature in AOSP ROMs to me, even more than all the actually important tweaks that make AOSP run so well.

There is already an update!
It's called Beta 1.1 Weekly and there is no changelog included with it so I imagine it's just some upstream updates and tweaks since yesterday and not a lot of major improvements. But an update is an update!

So far the beta builds give me trouble booting. I get hung on the splash screen a lot. It akes a bunch of chances to get it to boot. It always eventually works though.
Here's a list of what I've found is missing so far...
Transparent status bar
Dark Slim
Theme Engine
DPI changing in settings (Can probably still do it in build.prop)
List scroll animations
Probably more...
But it's all superficial stuff like this. The 'under the hood' type stuff all seems to work well.

I hate being *that guy*, but it clearly states check the FAQs...
http://slimroms.net/index.php/faq/slimbean/349-add-halo
Two questions I didn't see-
1- Is a wipe needed when coming from another version
2- Can I change the lock screen shortcuts yet?
I have been waiting for a 4.4 Slim. Unfortunately it looks like the most current beta does not support changing the LCD density yet. 360 is just too small for my old eyes. I will try once I'm able to change DPI to 480.

Texdroider dpi in the play store works great for doing that!

+1. I can confirm that Texdroider DPI does the job perfectly. And thank God for it. Aging eyes here too, and as much as I like Slimkat, I just couldn't hack it.

Great ROM!
One question though, is there any way to get a double tap of the built-in HTC home icon to bring up the menu within apps or from the home screen?
Thanks
I'm using this kernel to enable HTC logo as menu as well as double tap to wake.

I'm wary at adopting AOSP for this phone again. I'm on my 5th One since September, with 3 of them dying with the hot battery/quick drain issue, and then dying so hard they end up as bricks. All 3 times I've been on a SlimROM. SlimBean once, and SlimKat twice.
I love SlimROMs and have had nothing but good things happen, until I got on the One. I've only seen a couple of instances of this happening with other AOSP adopters, so I know I'm in the minority. It's tough to pull the trigger though, after being through this many phones.
I'll keep an eye out on the thread, but I'm going to run stock for awhile.
Sorry this wasn't too constructive for the thread, but I guess I'm looking for positive assurance that no one else is having these issues.

I would wait to install any Android 5 rom on anything. Its VERY Buggie on every Nexus device that has it.. So i would assume atleast wait until 5.1 or above is Release and see how it goes. My Nexus just freezes for no reason. other times it gets so slow its nearly not usable ..Yes its on a STOCK Factory image from google.
Been running this one for about 12 hours:

Using the 12/12 update.
no major trouble, only downside so far are no rear camera, and screen cast doesn't find my Roku, not sure if that's a bug or not.
Missing some of the customary CM personalization, but for an early rom, seems pretty stable.

Weird. I keep hearing that but my Nexus 5 is smooth and fast and totally trouble free. I sideloaded the OTA back in November when it was released and haven't had a lick of trouble at all. I'm also totally stock, not rooted, no custom recovery.

I Think its some kind of sleep or cpu throttle Bug.. I can be using it just say on google plus. All of the sudden the screen will freeze . Sometimes go back to lock screen. Only fix is to push power button on and off to toggle the screen a few times then its ok.. It Does seem to Run apps faster But seems the UI Is a bit slow.. I Thought i had a bad flash so i re- downloaded from GOOGLE And fastboot flashed totally stock same outcome.. It Could be my Device who knows. But i have seen others complain as well. Lately i do not use my nexus 7 much anyway. I have a note 10.1 2012 Version .
Other thing I do not like the new drop down notification thing. The two sided one was MUCH Better. I think the old list type settings menu was better as well. Someone needs to remind google we are not Children or icon yuppies.
Anyway i think my comments here are off topic as this is about the note 2. My note 2 is running stock rooted 4.3. I just see no need for custom rom on it at this time...
Thanks for your Opinion. as said maybe its JUST Me..

Thanks for the tip Was just coming to take a crack at that kernel, then I noticed the new rom by Team UB so I decided to give it a go. It's a decent, well rounded rom, and the rear camera works.
That brings my issues down to one, still can't throw screen to Roku, but I can't blame the developers for that.

Question Should I update? Or wait it out?

Greetings
I have LE2125
I'm currently on
Oxygen OS 11.2.10.10LE15AA
Got Notification for
LE2125_11_C.44_202201182114
Should I go for update?
I am skeptical about Oxygen OS12 given its reviews and number of bugs it has, meanwhile excited to try it out
Is downgrade an option? I have seen a few threads but my question is do I need to do something prior to update? And will going for update ruin the chances of going for certain custom ROMs?
Thanks I'm Advance
if u didnt like... you can always downgrade back to oos... and flash custom roms
if u didn't like c44... you can always downgrade back to oos... and flash custom roms
I updated my LE2125 to 12 awhile ago, and I haven't looked back...
Thank you all kindly vote into the poll above too, I guess I'll give it a try then
I use Oos 12 since Open Beta 1. Now i'm on ColorOS since C.36. I got no problems with my phone.
European model, living in Europa.

But for the 9 Pro there is Just the Chinese Color OS, without Google Apps, or i'm wrong?
Okay so I went for the update, actually I downloaded the update yesterday and had decided will hit reboot on my free time but apparently it decided to go for it on its own
For starters what's bothering me the most is about screen info shows SD855 instead of SD888 aside from this and other bugs
here are my Initial thoughts
Pros
Some of the features from ColorOS are great and even in a perfect world of Stock Oxygen UI(for OG's) I'd say these features are a must have
E.g
Dark Mode options
The wallpaper selector
More customizations
FPS options for video smoothing feature
Cons
Oh boy there are lots and lots of them
It feels like this UI didn't get the love that older Oxygen OS did before merger
A few days back I was helping a friend with his Oppo Reno and after this update I feel like I traded my 9 Pro for Oppo
Now don't get me wrong I always loved Hydrogen OS too, Color OS is a nice OS on its own (but not when Color OS is pretending to be Oxygen OS)
If it aint broke don't fix it I think majority would have preferred Oxygen over Color, Oppo should have kept Oxygen OS intact for its Global Flagships, and Color OS for other markets
I doubt OP devices will have that niche with what they had before
Sorry for going off topic there had to let off some steam
If you are all up for a change go for the update
If you are an OG oxygen OS buff I don't know what to say sooner or later you'll have to update at some point,give it a try?
Initially this update disappointed me weird things were happening with phone
Eventually its starting to grow on my a little bit I just dont like the Color OS look of app drawer and was looking forward to Android 12 themed quick toggles and all
I feel like it will keep on getting better as long as we get the same love via updates as we did for older Oneplus devices camera improvements and all

I was under the same impression maybe Color OS with Gapps installed or smth
What annoys me the most is that they removed the timer option for do not disturb mode.
You can only use schedule, or manually turn it on and off.
Is there any way to restore timer to the dnd-toggle like is was In Oxygen OS?

It's called Global, i think, because Google services works fine.
If you are on Oxygen (like i was) just flash ColorOs on top, using Local Update.apk. It's just like Dirty Flash a rom on top on another one (not a custom rom).
Now, of course i have google services working fine. There are about 5 chinese apps built in. If you are routed you can Clean all of them.
Okay I have been a while with this update and I'm thinking about downgrade or moving to custom ROM, it's not the change that's bothering me but the number of bugs especially the screen flickering bug on sleep to wake when you are using QHD with AOD it's totally unacceptable my phones display went green and I felt there is something wrong with the display, it's totally unacceptable, any other brand would have pushed an update by now or at least allowed users to roll back officially
Can you guys recommend and good custom ROM closer to stock and a stable daily driver but should have Oneplus's own camera app
