After my MIUI 7 Global and China Developer ROM, here comes my ColorOS 3.0 Beta [Globalized] ROM for Yureka and Yureka Plus. Color OS 3.0 (V3.0.0_160527_Beta) Globalized ROM is based on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop and comes with many new features. Since this is Globalized Edition so there are no Chinese apps and is multilingual.

NOTE: This ColorOS ROM is not an official release for ColorOS Team/OPPO. It is just a ported ROM from OPPO R7 Plus, so don’t expect zero bug.

This ROM is based on ARM64 firmware so your device needs to be upgraded to 64 bit firmware. [Yureka/Yureka+ Cyanogen OS users can upgrade to 64 bit firmware by flashing Cyanogen OS Lollipop OTA update.]

Disclaimer: This ROM has been tested and verified to be stable for daily use but there may be some unknown bugs. The development team is not responsible for any damage to your device or your information.

  • All the latest ColorOS 3.0 features including New Customizations, Dirac HD Sound®, Free Screenshot, Outstanding Camera etc.
  • Added SuperSU for root access
  • Added FM Radio which was missing in the original ROM
  • Added Screencast ported from CyanogenMod
  • Added updated GApps
  • Added Oppo Browser global edition and Oppo Swype

Bugs and Workarounds
-------------------------------------------
First I would like to tell you that the ROM has no major bug and is very much stable.
  • Torch icon in notification drawer is not working. So, please use the Flashlight app provided for torch. ;)
  • You may feel little lag at the beginning. But it will go after using few hours as the OS gets settled. You can also use custom kernels for better performance.
  • If you are facing slow charging issue then change kernel. But default kernel more stable.
  • ColorOS screen-off gestures not working except double-tap-to-wake. But you can use @vishal gohel’s GeXture App available on Google Play for more screen-off gestures.
  • Some ColorOS Camera plugins not working (like panorama, expert mode etc.) due to different camera sensor in Yureka.
  • LED notification light not working.
  • More bugs found?! Then please notify me. :)

Bug Fixes
WiFi Fix
Few users are complaining about WiFi not working; for them here is the WiFi fix:

hello,the rom is a good looking one and the camera performance deserves a special mention.I flashed the rom and its not booting sometimes.it used to get stuck at oppo and reboot.it later booted and i flashed gapps etc..but i found that twrp is gone and i installed twrp manager app and again installed recovery to flash the gapps as i stated above.however while i was downloading apps the battery slowly got to 10% below and suddenly it crashed.now when i try to boot its getting stuck at oppo screen for more than 40 mins and the mobile gets very hot during this.this happened but almost everytime after flasing rom but i managed to boot now i am not even able to access recovery.
