Thanks!!! A nice surprise. I put it on my find7a already and restored all the apps and setup. so far so good. This is probably my last year of using find7. Plan to get a new phone by the end of the year. Find7a has served me well, but the battery can't last for a whole day now. It's constantly on charger if there is one.

What's the latest TWRP that works with Find 7a (9006)? Can we update via official TWRP site or are we still using unofficial builds of twrp? Dummy me didn't read OP spent time trying to figure out why I kept getting Error 70 installing open gapps. Used recommended gapps and no error, booting for the first time now on 16.0. Thanks!!!

I guess no LVM support yet either, hopefully that will be implemented soon? Pie looks nice, but I guess I'm going back to 15.1 until LVM is supported, or if it is I can't get it to work flashing the CM13 lvm file I've been using for the last couple years.

Great to see a new Android version for my our Find7. Installed it right away and was impressed. Everything works just fine.
There were only two minor issues I encountered:
1) the integrated file manager does not work. I can't start it.
2) I tried various other file managers and thus encountered problem Nr. 2.: I can not move or copy files from my internal SD to the external SD and vice versa. However, my apps can access either storage, e.g. camera does take vids/photos and stores them on the internal SD but I can't copy or move them to the external SD. Likewise, my music app can access the folders on the external SD and plays the music but there's no way I can move those files to the internal storage. One of the file managers I tested returned an error message that my SDs are read-only.

Thanks for your efforts to support find 7 @mikeioannina. Do you know if your rom support the new LCD? Because my x9077 LCD broke twice and I couldn't find an old model and it always gives me trouble with some roms.

I've tried to install the first ROM (20190301), and it has been installed successfully.
The problem is the Gapps, there is no enough space to install one - I've tried with file "arm-9.0-pico-20190301" (89.7 MB). Or you try to reduce the size of the ROM file, or you provide a very small-sized Gapps file, or you have to make a procedure to resize the "System" partition.
Furthermore in extra folder there is no addon-su dedicated to 16.0, latest one is 15.1 (Does last one work also on 16.0?).
I attach the opengapps log file.

Use the GApps linked in OP. SU for 15.1 is ok for LOS 16.

hello everyone,

tried all latest nightlies and everything went smoothly.
But I can't install CM13 patch, so sd card corrupted (I have 32Gb).
Anyone found out to resolved this? Can't access 'sd card' for some apps...

Thanks,
Davy

Hi,

I've installed the ROM with latest twrp and using mindgapps. After installation, my LCD color is inverted. After reverting back to nandroid backup of omniron 7.1.2, all is well. I think maybe the LCD driver isn't supported. I've replaced my LCD before this. R63419. Thank you OP but please advice me. Sorry for bad English.

Hi ! I have a problem, my oppo find 7s is no longer able to connect Android Auto to the car since 5 updates ago. does anyone have the same problem? have you solved?
when I connect my wife's cell phone Rx17 neo everything works perfect so it's not a cable problem.

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. No matter how I install this I can't get the camera to save to my micro sd card. The option to change storage doesn't even appear in the menu. If I dirty flash over 15.1 it tells me camera can't access sd card. Dirty flash over 15.1, clean flash of 16.0, clean flash no gapps, clean flash no gapps and no cm13 patch, clean flash and cm13 patch. Doesn't matter can't change save location in camera. File manager lets me see my SD card. I've tried 4 or 5 nightlies since 16.0 came out. Works just fine on 15.1 though.

Small noise

When I use the headphones and stay in an app other than the Trebuchet and play nothing, there will be tiny strange noises.

Does anyone have the same problem or solution?
