I'd say download Nougat, everything works great! More features, maybe longer battery life and for me the phone works a little faster. Didn't find any cons yet enjoyed the design.

Nougat is a solid update, nothing against it and it may even be better in some aspects. Go for it.

you always want latest firmware version - for security updates if nothing else. Especially since recently there have been quite few big bugs found that are rather dangerous if not patched.

You dont need to update to nougat except for few new feature. If your mm is updated well ( mean security patched) you can wait for oreo version..

Nougat breaks some Xposed modules, including Xprivacy.

Can I flash a custom rom on the phone after oreo update ?

I have updated to oreo but the phone has terrible battery life even after trying to disable some wakelocks , using greenify , forcing doze etc. I was wondering if I could flash lineage os or let's say resurrection remix on the phone while it has oreo firmware .

I also would like to know

Of course custom roms can be flashed after stock Oreo update.
BUT:
You need to read the requirements in the thread for the specific rom you wish to flash.
There is no single answer for all cases/roms.
Each rom is going to be different, based on whatever blobs were used during rom compilation.
If the rom was built using Oreo blobs, then Oreo firmware is required.
If the rom was compiled using Nougat blobs, then it would require Nougat firmware, despite the actual version of android it is...
So...., read the OP of the thread for the rom you want to flash.
If that doesn't answer your question, then read the last 5-10 pages of the thread.
Still no answer found, then ask in that particular rom thread, what firmware is required.
It's actually pretty simple and typically requires a little reading.
(eventually, all Oreo based custom roms, should be using Oreo blobs and would then require Oreo firmware)
Things are in what I consider a transition phase currently....

TL;DR: LeeDroid 5+ is your only option ATM.

Looking for dimming navigation button like Pixel smartphones on Oreo 8.1 ?

Hi,
Do you know an app (or magisk module) that can manage the dimming navigation button that Pixel got on Oreo 8.1?
For infos, I'm on OOS Beta 4 on Oneplus 5T, rooted.

Can u show us the example?

Here a quick video https://youtu.be/gl5MTKVJFGI

How do I get OOS camera in custom?

Hi,
I would like to get the OOS camera working with its libraries and all the original options of the One plus camera, is this possible through some zip in my custom?

you could try to use oos camera add-on from this thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/rom-crdroid-v5-t3838384
by the way..
it would work only on PIE rom.

Did you see this thread? That worked fine for me in Lineage 15. (Oreo)

Question OOS 11 Questions

Hello there, i recently moved from a custom rom (Nameless AOSP, I did not like it) to oxygen os 11 (I was on oxygen 13 before Nameless), the phone is now rooted too. Im new to rooting and to custom roms. I must say the animations on OOS 11 feel way choppier compared to OOS 13. I dont know if I want to upgrade to OOS 13 again, and I have a few questions:
- Is there a way I can improve the animations (0.5 felt smoother on oos 13 than oos 11), with a magisk module or something?
- If I upgrade to oos 13, could i "downgrade" the camera app to the one I have in oos 11 (Hate that they disabled 48 mp in pro mode, I use it often)
Thanks

you can change the animation speed in the dev settings and downgrading the camera.apk to oos 13 is not easy because you can't just install an older version

Thats what I did, I have it at 0.5, but it feels very choppy, on oos 13 I had it at 0.5 too, and it felt smoother. I know that maybe its because of the optimization and etc, but I was wondering if there was something that could help me with that.
And about the camera, I know you cant install an older version, but is there an option to sideload or anything similar?

Prob is the camera.apk is in a partition with read only
You can this not easy unistall and install the other (camera.apk is a system apk and when you install this self is this not an system App) the downgrad fron camera apk is not easy and you will have with the older camera.apk have more bugs/probs on oos 13

Oh ok, understandable

You can't downgrade the camera app, it won't work.
