just throwing my personal experience out there.
After updating, i had super crappy reception and extremely slow speeds. i actually ended up flashing just the radio from "8.0.0 (OPR6.170623.012, Aug 2017)" to get decent service back.

I think some devs are closer than what you think. Lol. They have found the source to rebuild our bootloader.

You need root first. Without root it won't happen. Unlocking it is easy, getting privs to perform the unlock is the issue.

Well if we find a way to replace the bootloader then rooting will be a breeze...

good luck replacing the boot loader without an unlocked bootloader. hint: if it was that easy, we could already replace the bootloader with the unlocked variant.

Hard... But not impossible.

I sincerely hope I am proven wrong on this one. Just trying to manage expectations.

I did the exact same thing

My update seems to fix the blue tooth problem I had in a 2017 Tahoo with the phone not working. I think at this point it may have fixed the battery life issue I was having too. That may be too soon to tell.

nope battery still is draining fast. Not sure why. It did not seem to start until I installed O in beta. I thought maybe it would have fixed it self, But did not as of now.

My battery life is subpar as well...

The first picture shows my battery results for the day after charging for exactly 30 minutes at lunch... Huge difference if you can squeeze in that 30 minutes!

i can also confirm that reception has decreased. i travel weekly into a low coverage area and always got service but 1 bar with some 3G and now i just get no service in those areas.

I have gotten the best battery life out of September I've ever had. Wonder why your phones are different.

I run Tasker and get lots of cloud messages.

Just figured I would come back to this and show you that you were wrong and to not be so negative.. lol. My bootloader is unlocked and it didn't require rooting at all. Lol. All hail Smail!
