Here's the steps.
Download the flash image from http://d-h.st/qe5
Please prepare your tools of adb/flashtool as well.

Once done, do the following:
-Enable developer options
-Enable USB debugging

Open command prompt and access the adb/flashtool directory, run these command:
-adb reboot bootloader

Once in flashmode, run:
-fastboot oem unlock

At this point your phone will prompt you that phone data will be wiped, select confirm.

Go back to the phone and enable USB debugging again and reboot with adb:
-adb reboot bootloader

Now, here's the main flashing, ensure that the downloaded flash image are in the same directory as your adb/flashtool, then run the following commands:

-fastboot flash boot boot.img
-fastboot flash system system.img
-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
-fastboot flash cache cache.img
-fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
-fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
-fastboot flash dbi sdi.mbn
-fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
-fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
-fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
-fastboot flash LOGO logo.bin
-fastboot reboot

and tadah! Your phone is officially CM11S, congratulations!

Thanks!

Big Thanks! I'm thinking of getting the Chinese version too but hate Color OS so this helps a lot. :good:

We all know that the Chinese market version with Color OS has different frequency bands than the International version with CM11S. Does anyone know for sure if the hardware itself is identical or different? That is, can you take a Chinese version and flash the radio from the International version and get the International frequency bands? I've seen people ask the question before and have seen a bunch of people claim they are physically different but never confirmation from someone who really knows (as opposed to parroting what others have said).

I'm not going to buy the Chinese version but I'm curious about it.

edit: I see someone has asked this exact same question on this forum without getting an answer.

nowhere_mn · Jun 5, 2014

Somebody do this ? It works ?

I want to buy an oneplus one with color os, and after to change with Cyanogen Mod 11s...

What advice would you give me?

heyitsmik · Jun 7, 2014

Posted new instructions for flashing. Confirmed to be 64GB CM11S. Cheers all

lailainoob · Jun 7, 2014

Has anyone tested this yet? Does this work for the 64GB Chinese version of OnePlus One?

kohz87 · Jun 7, 2014

Yep, I posted that after I tested it.

antonior93 · Jun 7, 2014

Are there any hardware differences between the chinese and european One?
If not, once i installed the CM11S on it, will it be supported (not talking about warranty) as an european one? Do you keep recieving CM updates?

About CM updates, it always say i'm one the latest one

thank you!

Worked

I can confirm this process does work. I was stuck at the boot animation so I installed TWRP and performed a factory data reset and voila. When I typed adb oem unlock I did not get the wipe message. I suppose however I will never get LTE to work on ATT due to the frequency differences. I do get 3g/hspa+ which is OK.

MYFW · Jun 9, 2014

with that, can i install CM 11S on my 16Gb chinese Oneplus (with color os)?

Thanks

vivek_201280 · Jun 12, 2014

hi
just asking, what about OTA updates once I have flashed CM11S, I am assuming they should work as normal.

msalka1 · Jun 12, 2014

16gb

Thanks

Mine was the 16gb model and worked fine. Luckily I use ATT in US so I at lease have the 850 band so mobile data did work just not well enough for me.

antonior93 · Jun 12, 2014

Man, you should have received an update today

Did you get it?

jalmass · Jun 12, 2014

markfaulks · Jun 12, 2014

Me too.

I'm also new, have no idea what any of that means. I video tutorial would be amazing but clearer instructions for some of the lesser informed such as myself would be greatly appreciated, thank you. Really want to get Cyanogen, not a fan of Color OS at all.

dansou901 · Jun 12, 2014

@jalmass, @markfaulks: Read this carefully and do as instructed. It should clear your questions.
