Question When will the Custom Roms be available for Nord 2? - OnePlus Nord 2 5G

Hello, So, I used to own a OnePlus 5t and I made the jump to Nord 2 because my 5t was not working.
Honestly, the stock rom is a complete disappointment. I can't use half of the apps without giving them permissions to location, contacts, phone, etc.
I mean why does camera need my location? The sad part is it won't work without it which is complete BS. Same goes for gestures and other features. like Why do these apps needs contact and phone access? I disabled most of the apps from adb and I am using Gcam for camera.
Sorry for the rant. Anyways, does anyone have any idea by when can we expect to have a custom rom for this phone?

There is some problem with kernel and oneplus just don't care about it. I think thats main problem right now. You can try GSI but there are some bugs.

Until Oneplus don't release the full firmware it'll be difficult.
I've contacted the support though, and they say it will be published "soon"

Is this because its harder to make a custom rom for a mediatek soc? (or because mediatek wont release the firmware?)

Custom ROM development...

Realme 1 will be popular among developers for sure.XDA acknowledged it by opening a page for our device even before its sale has started.So all that is good.
Now coming to the problems,
We all know that mediatek is infamous for not releasing kernel sources.That makes it difficult for the developers to build custom ROMs.
On a more positive note since the realme one is based on 8.1 Oreo,I am guessing that its project treble compatible(somebody please confirm this) which makes the custom ROM development easier.
So the final question,
Will we get fully working custom ROMs of future android versions even if oppo and mediatek does not release kernel sources?Will project treble help in doing that??
You most probably will not. Snapdragon phones have better development, for example, the Redmi 4A did not have kernel source till recently, yet we had bugless Nougat ROMs, and now with source we have Oreo. It all depends on developer support, Oppo is not a brand that interests developers, on top of that it is a Mediatek phone, your custom ROM dreams may well be shattered. A few ported ROMs may be made if any developer decides to make it but will most likely be too buggy.

True.But oppo has never released a phone like this.
This phone has the same chipset(helio p60) of oppo f7 which is two times more costly than the realme 1.Therefore it offers immense value for money.And this will attract a lot of customers.Normally when a device has a huge customer base and if it is a value for money device, developers usually become interested in those devices.
Also I know know that both mediatek and oppo have violated GPL many times by not releasing the sources.But since this device is treble compatible,it should solve that problem to a certain extent right?
I am open to discussion...

Yes it will help, as project treble is a initiative by Google to help developers create custom roms without approaching Vendor(Oppo) or the Manufacturer(Mediatek).

I don't need root access, but there are issues with Color OS 5.
Like:
1. New notification pop appear for 3-4 seconds and you cannot swipe and close them, you need to wait to automatically close them, hampering your work. In other OS you can simply swipe left/right/both to close popup.
2. If you enable development option, then yellow notification will show constantly to close it, until you close mode. Why can't I use function like mock location, etc.
3. If you use app which use accessibility services (like Greenify) then it will constantly show notifcation bar sign to close, it means you cannot use Developer Mode or Accessibility Services Apps.
Hope Oppo will fixes these issues with Color OS in future updates.

It confirmed via email. The reply is given below:
"Thank you for writing to RealMe Customer Service regarding Project Treble inquiry.
We are delighted to inform you that your RealMe 1 device supports Project Treble. It is already enabled in your device."
But after some researchs i realised that even if it could support project treble, we still can't flash GSI rom with a locked bootloader. (Correct me if it is a wrong findings)

You need to wait for kernel sources to get released so devs can work on custom roms. If we get a TWRP recovery, you can try out the A/B GSI roms which are good but slightly buggy. If you want a bugfree rom, you need to wait a while, maybe a month or so.
Thanks bro when can we expect releases of kernel source another quarter

I'm very sad to see R5+ development is currently dead. I was hoping someone would build a Pixel Experience or any AOSP based ROM for our device but even the oreo roms are dead or finalized already. So i don't think people have anymore interest in R5+..

The real problem is lack of updated Oreo kernel sources (how much less Pie). This means, for example, that certain display panels (eg, ebbg) cannot be supported by custom ROMs (you might have to go back to Nougat kernels for that).
Why not write to Xiaomi to release up-to-date Oreo kernel sources for vince in the first instance? If enough people make a fuss, perhaps something will happen ...

Xiaomi however isn't listening their customers. A big example is ARB system which absolutely destroys devices. So i guess we are gonna stay dead until something shows up..

Question Oneplus Nord 2 kernel version ?

Which kernel version has the Nord 2 ? I am asking because i want know about the status of the GKI kernel implementation.
https://source.android.com/devices/architecture/kernel/generic-kernel-image
Hi @ALX3K,
As you can see here: https://github.com/OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_mt6893/blob/oneplus/MT6893_R_11.0/Makefile#L2
It have 4.14.186 (Petit Gorille).
Greetings,
Wow how did you find it?
I thought because of merger with color os and in preperation to android 12 (oxygenos 12) there would use the newer kernel 4.19 or 5.4. Its even recommended from the android developers.
Maybe in oos12 we get a newer kernel would be interessting to know. I still cosider to buy a Nord 2 to play for some months with it. But now not sure. Example like this shows us why the merger of color os and oxygenos make sense. More developers and so on.

Because 1+ is GPL complain.
About the kernel version, I dont think the new change in 1+ with the merge with ColorOS in Android 12 will bring new kernel version, because that come from MTK BSP, and normally, QCOM and MTK only bump the minor version code, like 4.14.XXX only.

General Realme FINALLY released the Android 13 kernel and vendor sources :)

Hey Realme GT 2 Pro fam,
Guess what, realme released the Android 13 kernel and vendor sources for GT 2 Pro
Kernel source: https://github.com/realme-kernel-opensource/realme_gt2pro-AndroidT-kernel-source
Vendor Source: https://github.com/realme-kernel-opensource/realme_gt2pro-AndroidT-vendor-source
This should help us get a decent custom rom and recovery
Is this complete?

It appears so from the looks of it. Haven't had a chance to compile. Hopefully any devs can get us started with custom roms and recoveries.
Will anyone risk developing anything for this device with all the restrictions OPPO put in place for MSM flash tool?
Maybe we get some custom kernels for battery life improvement, I am hyped

Finally!
Hopefully someone can make the factory rom better. Would be nice if someone could remove the bloatware and remove the thermal throttling. Android 13 c.08 cant run wildlife stress test because the phone force closes it and givese warningw that its tok hot. Not to mention games like Apex and Genshin Impact are also loosing fps after a few minute due to throttling.

I have attached the kernel image (requires packing into a boot.img).
