Okay, so, one of my friends has a OnePlus 3 and it disappointed in the battery life after the Nougat update, he wants to roll back to Marshmallow.
So,
1. Is rolling back to Marshmallow possible after a Nougat update? Are there any risks for flashing Marshmallow on Nougat's bootloader?
2. Can someone tell me what is the latest stable (don't want betas) Oxygen OS based off Marshmallow.

I'm not sure If we're allowed to post external links but, you can go to Google and search for "downgrade op3".
This is best marshmallow in my opinion of course

Remember that op3/3t N have f2fs file system which is unsupported on 3.2.8 (MM). You'll either have to use an old version of custom kernel (I think only bluspark supported f2fs at that time) or convert to ext4 in twrp. Other than that there should be no issue with flashing 3.2.8 over N

I've had the exact same issue! Did you use Xiaomitool in the past to switch between china/global without unlocking BL? That caused this **** for me.
You need to fastboot flash MIUI 9 using miflash, after that this "region" issue wil be resolved. If you don't have the fastboot rom hit me up on Telegram or send me a PM and I can send it to you.

Good Day all,
I was wondering, is it possible to revert to the stock recovery after installing the Global ROM on the mi mix 3 China Version?
Reason I am wondering is because when I/We receive a OTA update from Xiaomi while using the Global ROM, will the phone be able to update or will it just freak out on me/us and die?
Currently I am waiting for my Bootloader to be unlocked (ETA 70HRS), I have all files necessary files downloaded (TWRP, Global ROM, Magisk v17.1)
Help/Advice would be appreciated :good:
Kind Regards

I find you very helpful in the forum and I would like to ask you few questions, I am thinking about buying the device but only chinese version is available here and I cant wait for the global to arrive
my questions are:
1- global version only released with 6GB RAM , if I got chinese version with 8GB , will it be able to run the global ROM ?
2- I have never flashed a ROM before , but I have strong knowledge in linux and command lines, will this be a hard task for me to do ? is it risky to brick the device ?
3- After flashing the Global ROM , will I receive official OTA updates directly from xaiomi without any problems ?

1. Yes no problem, I'm on 8GB model and worked fine
2. Really hard to hard brick, soft brick possible but easily fixable via fastboot to flash new system, boot etc

You'd have to use the Xiaomi EU rom with or without magisk as the global ROM has a CTS mismatch so won't pass safety net.

No, flashing the ROM will keep TWRP installed as it's a custom miui ROM.
OTA works and will automatically flash the update via TWRP for you.

Just a quick update for you all that I have successfully, unlocked the Bootloader and installed the ROM.
Just a quick note to mention that after you do:
fastboot flash recovery TWRP_perseus.img
DO NOT put in the command:
fastboot boot TWRP_perseus.img
After flashing TWRP just take your phone (either connected or disconnected from PC) and hold vol up and power. It will reboot in TWRP.
I tried rebooting into the recovery using the above command line and it just rebooted into MIUI Recovery.
Hope this helps :good:
GAPPS
Has anyone tried to flash GAPPS onto this ROM safely or would it mess everything up?
TO CLARIFY THIS IS A ROOT ONLY FIXAfter gaining root install given module.
Data is now retained. Even after reboot(s).
No empty slot or waiting.
Issue is TMO variant is showing multi sim.
So props were added to make it like a conversion to single sim....
Yes module works for both models.
Install & enjoy
Extract and pull it apart if interested .
Please give amazing thanks
to @twinnfamous for building module & bringing this data/sim nightmare to an end
Hi,
This is working great, I have flashed and rebooted multiple times with no signal loss, great work, thanks for this.
Now that Tmo has a new update out, will this need to be flash when I update to the new Tmo modem?

I guarantee 9.9 is not the fix
Yes, will have to, until Tmo A12 hopefully fixes it. But don't get your hopes up
I was able to successfully keep 5g mobile data on Android 12 using your module.
Thanks a ton.
I had also followed the other guide for data retention and that works great until the ob1 is installed, then your tool was needed to bring the modem back that was retained by his process.
But after combining the two guides and being successful so far, do you think I'd be able to take the latest c44 update, reflash your module and have my 5g return? Or are the stables garunteed to break it.?
After updating c44 via update, then installing module data_fix? Should be fine. Honestly prop is so simple it should always work

Post in thread '[TMO] 9 PRO MODEM RETENTION' https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tmo-9-pro-modem-retention.4292445/post-86328243
So I have a OnePlus 9 Pro 5g T-Mobile (USA) and I was able to successfully put in the official Global Android 11 build in it (11.2.10.10.LE15AA).
I had cell and data service when I using the global android 11 build, however when I upgrade the phone to android 12 I lose all service, both data and cell service (sim card is not even being detected, there are 2 empty sim slots showing in the notification bar).
What do I do next? Is there a step by step guide? I saw many posts scattered across different threads trying to resolve this issue, but it was very hard to follow.
Note: I have backed up my original T-Mobile MODEMST1/2 AND PERSIST PARTITION images before I changed my ROM.
I have tried the following method, which resulted in a brick.
Method 1 (DOES NOT WORK-BRICK)
1. Tried to convert to the EU MSM but it didnt work.
2. converted my phone to India MSM and it worked
3. Under the India MSM i did a local upgrade to the Global Android 11 build in it (11.2.10.10.LE15AA).
4. flashed the t-mobile modem
fastboot flash modem_a NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash modem_b NON-HLOS.bin
5. Brick
Before jumping to Android 12 you needed to flash the data retention zip. That'll tell the system you are on 1 sim and not 2.

Based on the instruction, it said it was a root only fix. I may be wrong, but thats what i remembered.
I would highly recommend simply updating as far as you can via T-Mobile, flashing C.62 EU firmware via https://www.mediafire.com/folder/sxdpvifk83q9g/OnePlus_Firmware_Updates#p36biy56icbc4 and then installing your custom ROM.

when you say flashing, are you talking about using MSM?

No, updating it all the way through to the latest firmware. If you have a T-Mobile version I recommend flashing the data retention zip.. I've had zero luck converting over to a custom Rom and Global without it. I'm currently running Pixel Experience at the moment with spark kernel.

Let me get his straight. Are you that I should:
step 1: go back to TMobile stock rom
Step 2: update the T-Mobile stock rom as much as you can
Step 3: flash the data retention with root (magisk is the best way)
Step 4: flash c.62 EU firmware. How do you do this? With msm?

Go back to stock T-Mobile firmware and update it all the way to the latest firmware which is C.62, flash the data retention zip through magisk and then you can go ahead with a custom Rom of your choice.

In that case do the stock T-Mobile firmware, update your phone to 11.2.10.10 (I believe is the last update before A12) flash the Data retention zip, download Oxygen Updater application and download then install the Global version from there.

In that case you need the Tmo-EU msm and then find the 11.2.9.9AA ROM to install through the updater.
