    Good news!

    I have found the Rooting method and instructions for Rom version 1.2.2i
    It should work for every Oppo Find 7 and 7a (not confirmed) with any system (till 1.2.2i at least).
    In the end system, bootloader and recovery will be intact - > stock rooted.
    WORKING ON: x9077, x9076, x9006 (confirmed by #Oiler)

    (NOTE):
    Android SDK is required (which gives ADB and FASTBOOT files), if you have these files already on your computer, then you can just download TWRP, STOCK RECOVERY (oppo), and SUPERSU.
    All the files are located below:



    Preparation:
    1. Phone with at least 30% battery.
    2. Install Oppo drivers from "OPPO Driver" phone partition.
    3. Download and unzip: AndroidSDKSlim - https://mega.co.nz/#!SEhFXbzL!Xy4PrX_NKFnAZvPaggQL-1Vw1PESzRCyqXiPrMlvWVM
    4. Download: TWRP - https://mega.co.nz/#!gF0GhBzT!HGaWCcQfqr_ns2z7ZEIeeF-0KvXFliEOAFZ_Z-wHcdw and put it in "platform-tools" folder wich u get from zip above. (img file)
    5. Download: Stock Recovery - https://mega.co.nz/#!rVQWXKhD!Ljy9pw_sy0VlKzxqJwuD4UoZGMwF_dOmOYWgR1mMRc4 Mod or Stock Recoveryhttp://ge.tt/2EQ5h2m1/v/0?c *2 and put it in "platform-tools" folder. (img file)
    6. Download: SuperSU - http://download.chainfire.eu/451/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip?retrieve_file=1 and put it on phone internal storage. (do not unpack)

    Changing Recovery Menu:
    1. Turn Off phone.
    2. Press Volume UP + Power
    3. Now u should see small discription on screen: fastboot
    5. Plug the phone to PC.
    4. Open command prompt inside "platform-tools" folder -> press SHIFT + Right Mouse Click, pick open command prompt here.
    5. Write:
    Code:

    fastboot devices

    6. You should see:
    Code:

    "your phone product code" Dartmoor

    7. If you don't see your device listed, make sure drivers are installed properly. Next, write:
    Code:

    fastboot flash recovery twrp-x9077.img

    after few second you should see OKAY. (No need to turn off phone) *1

    Rooting the phone:
    1. Power off the phone.
    2. Hold volume DOWN and the POWER button to get into the TWRP Recovery.
    3. Pick install and find the SuperSU zip file, confirm the flash.
    4. Reboot the phone. (cash and davlik wipe not nessesary)
    5. Phone is now rooted. (Check if there is working SuperSU app. Update binary if needed.)

    Restoring stock Recovery Menu:
    1. Power off the phone.
    2. Press Volume UP + Power
    3. Open command prompt on your PC inside "platform-tools" folder -> press SHIFT + Right Mouse Click, pick open command prompt here.
    4. Write:
    Code:

    fastboot flash recovery x9077-official-recovery-mod.img

    after few second you should see OKAY.
    5. REBOOT, or turn off phone by pressing POWER for 3 sec.
    6. Check Recovery Menu (Volume DOWN + Power)

    ____________________________________________________________________
    NOTES:

    *1 turning off after installing Recovery Mod is unnecessary, this is because the phone won't startup automatically into the installed Recovery Mod.

    *2 Stock Recovery is provided as genuine by #Zeus (Oppo Official Staff). The other one - Stock Recovery Mod is provided by #Kedros which have removed checking of Oppo system (provides possibility to install custom files like roms or SuperSU etc.). #Kedros confirmed that OTA update is still available on it.

    All thanks go to our awesome XDA-Developers, the developers at Oppo, and also to scumpicule for this working root method.

    It doesn't require any alterations to the recovery system, just stick with the one that Oppo has provided.
    This has only been tested on the X9076, it should theoretically work for other versions of the Find 7 as well, but please do this under your own discretion.


    **Update: It has been reported that the newest Rom release of 1.2.2i or 1.2.3i and onward might not work with this root method! If this is the case, you will need to use these instructions from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53902937&postcount=10

    ________________________________________________________________________________

    CONTINUE with these instructions if you have Rom Version: 1.2.1i, otherwise if you have updated, click on the above link ^

    INSTRUCTIONS:

    Download the "Find7_ROOT4.3_bbs.oppo.cn.zip" file.

    ** It is also available at:
    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2739102&highlight=find+7 **

    Then Copy/Paste it in your phone on your root folder

    Turn Off your phone

    Simultaneously press the buttons ' power ' and 'volume down ' until you feel a vibration.

    Your phone will reboot into recovery mode. ( Should be the OPPO recovery ! )

    Select ' Choose English ' & Install zip file

    Then choose the zip file that you have downloaded in step 1 & click "YES" to install.

    Hit "Reboot" once everything is completed.

    Go into app drawer and select the SuperSU app. Update the binary by selecting the "NORMAL" method.

    Reopen SuperSU and make sure binary is okay.

    Try downloading "Root Checker" or a app that requires root.

    Congratulations, your device is now Rooted!!

    ________________________________________________________________________________

    If you run into any errors, try updating the SuperSU binary again, or check under "NOTES" on the link above that scumpicule has posted.

    installation failed unfortunately
    i followed your steps and my device number is X9076

    I'm pretty sure I used the same .zip file earlier today with the stock recovery, installation failed here too. (X9076).

    Fortunately this worked perfectly: Click Here

    Hey, yes the method should work for the most recent version as well. When you plug in your phone to you pc, it prompts you install the drivers from OPPO, just continue and install them.

    If you don't see "Developer Options" in your settings ( in "More" ) then go into "About Phone" and click on "Build number" 5 times until you receive a message indicating that developer options is enabled.

    Then plug in your phone and see if the drivers get updated. This process has been tested to work on Windows 7.
