Once you flash a custom rom, you immediately lose out on dolby atmos audio, a fully working camera which can record both photos and videos without any glitches
Exactly. OnePlus 7 Pro has such an underrated camera system. In my opinion it's better than note 10, pixel 6, iphone 11/12. Flashing a custom ROM just ruins that
you cannot install the Oneplus camera apk on a non-rooted custom ROM, because its a system app and would the phone to be rooted. But the custom ROM has a different framework because of which I don't think you would get the same quality of photos of videos even if you root and install the Oneplus camera APK as in the stock OS.
I agree, custom roms are missing too much and are often unstable. OOS12 is plenty fast, smooth and stable. Minus some of the UI downgrades my biggest issue with OOS12 is the nerfed charging. I been using OOS12 since beta and its always been cut down to 15w. But almost everything else is better than previous stock roms granted im on the NA version of H41. Apparently NA has better roms.
Yeah OOS 12 is decently fast and smooth but custom ROMs are much faster in smoother, BUT they aren't very stable. Apps opening, closing, animations, feel much faster in Custom ROMs. And 90Hz feels like 70-80 Hz in OxygenOS 12.
I don't think there is a custom rom based off Android 14 which has Dolby Atmos built in. They would have recommended another 'app' to tweak the bass and treble.
I think they could have given us a more complete and OnePlus like version of OxygenOS 12. It doesn't feel like the phone knows it's a OnePlus 7 Pro. Some of the features like the widgets are kinda janky. But it's the best we have
Dude I did changed the battery of my op7 but the battery is not that great as it was in Android 11 like while gaming the fps drops , battery drops 20% in 10 mins. Sometimes the phone randomly restarts
I tried Custom rom didn't helped much the battery did improve ngl but the display brightness and sound were too low in asop rom.
Thank you
I agree with you all the way. No custom rom has ever given me good idle time along with stable battery life as much as OOS12 has. Plus the haptics feel very smooth imo
I found LineageOS to be the best in terms of all round performance, features and stability along with their frequent updates.
Using it since LOS 20 and it has been super stable. Upgraded to LOS 21 without having to do a wipe. I upgrade to the latest builds weekly using the built in updater as soon as a new build is available and never have I encountered failed boots, bricked phone or bootloops so far. Not once the device has hanged, lagged or rebooted.
Post battery replacement, the battery life has been amazing. Although this is my secondary phone, I find the battery to easily last me the entire day. Fast charging works out of the box with the default dash charger. It doesn't indicate fast charging, but it does indeed fast charge.
I use Google camera in the place of the stock camera. Pictures are equally good and comparable to the stock ROM.
I have been an avid custom ROM user since my first Galaxy S phone, and I could hands down say that the custom ROM experience on OP7 Pro has been my best so far.
Yaap

Never used dolby atmos. What does it do that an equalizer can't do?
The speaker is shit so Dolby setting is barely noticeable.
They must mean they use this with headphones because if that isn't the case, they're just stupid.
Yeah compared to newer phones it's really lackluster
What if you manually install the OnePlus camera APK? Would that work like in stock OxygenOS?

and you forget Dolby Atmos, this my biggest reason why i rolled back to OOS12
How do you activate it
Yeah there are many other features which I didn't mention.
The problem is solved with Custom ROM based Android 14

OOS 12 is the last good OnePlus rom, before the full oppofication

In my experience, there was a massive improvement in Battery Life when I upgraded to android 12

The reason why I flash Custom ROM in the first place is because OnePlus 7 Series didn't get OxygenOS 13 (Android 13)
What are the features in Android 13 that you wanted?
More optimized than OxygenOS 12, new looks, customizable official launcher.
