Hi.

Probably many of you already saw the new bootloader (the initial screen on boot) on our devices after OxygenOS BETA 10 and most probably many of you miss the old one where you can easily boot to recovery/fastboot with the volume keys?

Well, I missed it too so I've created a simple Aroma flashable zip with both of them :)


So, what is this?:
This is a simple aroma flashable zip which contains both the old and the new bootloader of Oneplus 5.

How can I use it?:
Simply flash the zip in TWRP and check which bootloader version you want to be flashed.

Can I revert this?:
Yes. Flash the "NEW" bootloader using the zip or simply flash OOS BETA 10/11.


THIS IS ONLY FOR ONEPLUS 5, DO NOT TRY TO FLASH THIS ON 5T OR ANY OTHER PHONE!!!!!


Changelog:
V.1.2 - Bootloader images update (thx to @shadowstep )
V.1.1 - Aroma script changes (from checkbox to selectbox... + some other small string changes)
V1.0 - Initial


Download v.1.2:

Download v.1.1:
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=890278863836290161



Of course the zip was tested on my phone and it works fine, so have fun! :)

Thanks for this. I already made flashable zips for this and they're up in my OnePlus 5 folder in MediaFire (link in signature) but they're normal TWRP flashable zips. Having an aroma installer is definitely better though, one zip than two. :) So thanks again! Hope you're enjoying your vacation mate!

I've uploaded v.1.1. Checkbox was not the best idea when you want to flash just one of the options, so now it is a select box. Sorry about that :cowboy:

P.s. - You can't do a harm on your phone with v.1.0 if you check both options, it will just flash the old one then the new one (so you'll always end with the new one). Anyway, it looks better and it's properly made now :)

I just opened up the thread to suggest this change (that you move from check boxes to select boxes) and saw that you already did that a few minutes back! Could you just enjoy your vacation and not be so efficient? :p

P.s. - I'll try to upload screenshots and make the thread better looking later as I'm on vacation (away from my PC) and I'm doing everything from my phone (which is not really easy...)
