[ROM][MOD] ColorOS 2.0.2i FIND7A v1.1

Custom ColorOS 2.0.2i beta - Complete upgrade guide - With TWRP - Also works on X9077/6

I will keep this ROM updated, always help when I can, and open to suggestions that users may want implemented into the ROM. My goal is to keep the ROM Clean, Stable, with great performance without compromising battery life.

This ROM has had the following MODS

Removed a lot of apps - Minimal Gapps are included
Improved GPS
Ad blocking hosts file.
Super SU
Build prop mods
It does NOT flash recovery. So if you have TWRP 2.8.0.1 then it won't get replaced with OPPO recovery.

More to come soon...

First of all download the ROM here and save it to your SD card

First of all you need to install TWRP 2.8.0.1 - This works with nearly all the ROMs available for the Find 7a
It can be found here

If you have stock recovery you will need to go into fastboot mode (hold power + vol up until the phone vibrates)

With you phone in fastboot boot and connected to USB (make sure you have installed oppo drivers) flash the TWRP img file.

Reboot the phone into recovery (Pwr + vol down)

In recovery select advanced wipe select everything except internal and external storage.

Then go to install and select the rom you have downloaded.

Enjoy.

I have found this to be a very stable/fast ROM with very few problems.

Finally! I have uploaded a customised ROM. Just a few tweaks to get us started. Lots more to follow soon...

Should work on all variants of the Find 7.

Has anyone noticed a negative side to this update? I am new to the find 7a and just unlocked it. I am running factory stock without an update yet.

I have been following to OPPO forums for this update as well. Thanks!

Nope, not sure why they call it a Beta, I have found it a lot less buggy than color OS 1.2.x
