Oneplus 8T (Cyberpunk Edition)

It didn't change the partition, oem_cust is still present in the ColorOS zip, and the partition is there, whoever said that has no idea of what they're talking about.
This is the themeinfo.xml file, that informs which apps will have the cyberpunk flag on them, some of them could be shared between OxygenOS and ColorOS, but to be more specific the one that is broken is the com.android.systemui from OOS, that APK is totally different from the one on ColorOS which features the new theme version. A simple Magisk module porting some of those apps should give us the full customization behavior back to OOS.

6Update worked, however I need to highlight that 11.0.6.7 seems buggy to me (Stutter and other stuff)
Ok. So I got Global 11.0.6.7 update (OTA, incremental, around 500 MB size).
I updated and it worked (with all cyberpunk elements working and nothing changed).
Proof:
1) Cyberpunk8T Phone at Global OOS 11.0.5.6, and showing receiving new update under system-update:
2) Downloading Global OOS 11.0.6.7 update. Not full update, OTA, incremental, around 500 MB size:
3) Booting to Global OOS 11.0.6.7 after update and restart (it took a bit more time while booting, but worked at the end):
4) Showing updated phone to Global OOS 11.0.6.7 with cyberpunk elements intact:
So, I think flashing cyberpunk cust on both slots before, and then relocking and updating did work.
Below I will put the steps I took (please note that I tried this on Global version, no idea if EU or IN is the same).
Steps:
-1) If you received phone on HOS, do full local update into next HOS in order to ensure cust is flashed to the other slot. (preferably do 2 HOS full local updates just to ensure, recommended versions are OnePlus8T_Hydrogen_11.0.4.5_15.H.19_KB05, and OnePlus8T_Hydrogen_11.0.5.6_15.H.20_KB05. (another option would be to flash cust at this stage, but I am just stating what I did personally).
0) Use MSM tool to convert to Global OOS (check thread and forums for this step)
1) Now your cyberpunk 8T phone should be on OOS, and you have all cyberpunk elements working (this is important as it points that param flag for cyberpunk is active)
2) Unlock bootloader and root the phone (credit to @Kihara777 )
(for full info about this step check https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-for-oneplus-8t-devices.4198459/post-84055453 )
(for root info read https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...in-eu-us-kb2000-kb2001-kb2003-kb2005.4178675/ )
2a) download this image: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsJy8Rcn_wjLhLwuunq7W9seKfKT7Q?e=vTKQd0
2b) Use below commands in adb to push the cust images (google how to to adb commands).
2c) remove root and relock the bootloader (optional)Bash:adb push H19_OTA-oem_cust1-raw.img /sdcard/oc1.img (I actually unziped and copied the file to phone root through windows and renamed it to oc1.img, then did adb shell in cmd, and ran the below commands) su dd if=/sdcard/oc1.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/oem_cust1_a dd if=/sdcard/oc1.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/oem_cust1_b
[Alternative to step 2 if you cannot root][Tested by @lexcyn Thanks! ]
2) Unlock bootloader
2i) download this file: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AsJy8Rcn_wjLhLwtuwnEWCG4E1bNMQ?e=iRf5jm
2ii) flash through fastboot using these commands
2iii) relock the bootloader (optional)Bash:fastboot flash oem_cust1_a H19_OTA-oem_cust1-sparse.img fastboot flash oem_cust1_b H19_OTA-oem_cust1-sparse.img
3) After rebooting the phone, you should have all elements, and OTA incremental updates should not affect your cyberpunk elements or cause bootloop
This what have worked for me. Please familiarize yourself on how to unbrick just in case things did not go well.
Edit: fixed OOS 11.0.6.7 video link, and info about the adb commands
Edit2: flashing cust files using "dd" commands require the phone to be rooted. Alternatively, I added another flash commands using fastboot that not require root.5Hi,
So I have some good news (I think).
I was trying to flash OxygenOS (Global and EU) on my HydrogenOS (11.0.4.5) Cyberpunk8T. It ended me bricking my device. (Yes, I was fooling around with fastbootd >_<)
I went to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4180837/
and used the MSM tool @OniAraAra linked: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=320230
I was able to get back to HOS (11.0.1.2). So this even downgraded my version, and I had all cyberpunk elements.
Then it hit me. I was trying to figure out how did the sellers flash the global OOS.... and most of xda members here state that their device came on "11.0.4.5.KB05AA ", and it had " SOME Cyberpunk things ".
So I went and did an MSM restore on my Cyberpunk8T HOS (11.0.1.2) to EU OOS 11.0.4.5 (from unbrick-tool thread above). Guess what it worked. I was able to boot to EU OOS 11.0.4.5.
Then right away, I did a local OTA upgrade using full package EU OOS 11.0.5.6 (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...l-to-restore-your-device-to-oxygenos.4180837/).
I booted to EU OOS 11.0.5.6, have cyberpunk boot animation, wallpapers, theme, icon pack, and sounds (basically everything, let me know if I should check something specific).
ps: I also heard that local upgrade is not available on Global or India OOS, thats why I tried it on EU. Not sure if one does EU MSM, then flash Global Full OTA locally if that might work or not.

4I received a Oneplus 8t (Cyberpunk Edition). The phone was supposed to have HydrogenOS as it is a Chinese phone. However, the vendor installed Global OxygenOS (KB05AA). After OTA updates, the phone wouldn't reboot and would get stuck on the Cyberpunk boot animation.

OxygenOS
I tried updating/restoring OxygenOS using the the MSM download tools here:
[OP8T][OOS KB05AA/BA/DA] Unbrick tool to restore your device to OxygenOS
Disclaimer: By attempting any of the processes...
forum.xda-developers.com
Pros: Google Apps and a Global ROM.
Cons: No OTA updates and no original Cyberpunk theme.
Best case scenario for OxygenOS users would be for Oneplus to fix the OTA updates for Cyberpunk phones. This would stop the bootloop problem people are having.

HydrogenOS
I have made a guide on how to restore HydrogenOS and add Google Apps:
Oneplus 8T (Cyberpunk Edition) - HydrogenOS (Google Apps, Theme, OTA Updates!)
Originality/HydrogenOS If you have a Chinese...
forum.xda-developers.com
Pros: Working OTA updates, the original Cyberpunk theme, and Google Apps!
Cons: A little bit of time and maintenance.
________________________________________
Overall I would highly recommend trying the HydrogenOS solution I've linked above. It works excellent for me, so I won't be pursuing a solution for OxygenOS unless things change. The guide I wrote and linked above should get anyone with a Cyberpunk phone on to HydrogenOS (with OTA updates, original theme, and Google Apps).

OK, so i finally got Oxygen OS 11.0.5.6.KB05AA (Global/USA) Running on my Oneplus 8T Cyberpunk edition (KB2000) with all the Cyberpunk goodies.. .
After all the previously mentioned attempts this is what got me through:
1.- MSM to Hydrogen OS using the link provided at OP.
2.-- Update Hydrogen OS to 11.0.5.6 using OTA update (incremental update directly on the phone).
3.- Once Hydrogen complete update to 11.0.5.6. Turn phone OFF.
4.- MSM to Oxygen OS to 11.0.1.2.
5.- Once Oxygen OS boot up, loaded 11.0.5.6.KB05AA FULL zip update (Provided on OnePlus website) to the phone's root directory.
6.- Perform a Local update through the "gear" icon under the system update section.
7.- voilà!!!
If you guys have any questions in regards of what i did, feel free to ask me.
Best of luck~4
Was just going to post this - the other command is if you are rooted.
This worked for me by the way, THANK YOU.
I was already on OOS 11.0.5.6 so I:
1) Unlocked bootloader
2) Flashed cust to a & b via fastboot
3) Relocked bootloader
4) Set up phone and restored from my OnePlus backup
5) Downloaded / installed OTA
Worked a treat and still have all of the Cyberpunk goodies!
[Edit] Also worth mentioning I don't have any of the lag issues on the new update, but probably since I wiped the phone and updated.
