i've been looking into buying a new phone and wanted to check if there are any issues with custom rom surrounding this phone
No custom ROMs yet. Also doing any modifications is pretty risky in realme world

why aren't there any, is it bc the phone is new? i just heard of it a few days ago.
and why is it risky?
It's not like Xiaomi. Hard to recover if bricked. Also no benefit of unlocked bootloader no custom roms

so if i understand correctly, the reason there is no C-roms bc of the risk?
is bricking a high probability or regular, but just very hard to fix once it happens?
Not because of the risk. Because no karnel source is released. Once there's a Karnel source, Devs might work on it and make everything safer.

i see, how long has it been like this?
and does it normally take a while for kernel sources to be released in general
It's been quite a long for realme GT but no karnel.

oppo tends to not open karnel source easily
Kernel source now available here: https://github.com/realme-kernel-opensource/realmeGT_AndroidR-kernel-source
Development may start soon if there are enough attention.
I'd like to see a Havoc ROM.
Since you can simply unlock the booloader, why can't you just install a GSI? Did anyone try?
Here is some information for the GT Master.

Dear All,
I refer to this below thread for a bit of history;
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-x/help/restore-xperia-x-dual-f1522-to-stock-t3587368
After the success of flashing the stock rom and relocking the bootloader I tried to launch the camera but i keep getting the above message!
FYI I didn't have my TA partition backed up as well as the DRM keys thing-ies.
Any idea of what could be causing this?

I couldn't find the error message your taking about. Briefly read what u said and understood some. So youunlocked bootloader, installed custom recovery and a rom, and manged to flash to official firmware and are having problems with the camera.
As someone mentioned in that other thread you gave, when you block bootloader l, you lose the TA part ions which contains DRM, which can help camera to work as Sony wants it. The lost TA is lost likely causing issues., thus I recommend rooting to do man which have fixes for the lost DRM (not a replacement for the list ones) , so your camera will function correctly again. Be u seen you never made aback up of the TA, you've permanently lost them, even after relocking the bootloader.
P. S. I'm sure someone mentioned a similar thing to you no in the other thread.
Hope I helped u in some way.
Hey man,
Thanks for the thorough reply. So you think I have no hope of getting the camera to work while maintaining the stock firmware with locked bootloader?

That right, I think you dont have any reason to come back to stock firmware when you lost DRM key, because some rom have DRM fix like poision rom and pexorom. In addition, I am using posion rom which is really stable and fixed all your problem.
Glad to be not the only one with this problem.

Just unlock your bootloader again and camera will start working. Use FlashTool by Androxyde and Xpirifirm to update your phone when when new firmware is release.

OH developers please port a rom to oppo a57
its an awsome device its got 3gb ram snapdragon 435 and 720 p display please guys port it colour os sucks help needed
OP, I know you posted this in the find5 thread as you wanted them to port the rom from this phone but since it's for the a57 I assume this technically isn't the right place to do it, anyhow:
From what I can tell Oppo has restricted access to the bootloader on these phones and we still don't have a working root method. Until either one of these circumstances changes it is unlikely that any development can begin for these phones.
If any senior devs out there have skills in reverse engineering, I would be more than happy to donate to the cause or maybe even flash your betas because at this stage what I have is a well spec'd phone that's as useful as a brick thanks to Oppo's abhorrent ColorOS. I just want root or an unlocked bootloader.
I'm offering $25aus as a starting point and I'm sure others would get on board with me since we all spent the equivalent of $300aus for a P.O.S phone.
Oppo a57 working root

Can confirm rooting method works but it seems like it corrupts your NV partition. Make sure you've taken a backup of yours before proceeding. Check back as we nut out a solution.
I currently have my phone rooted and TWRP installed but the bootloader still needs to be unlocked or a tool similar to magictricks.zip needs to be made to enable/install fastboot binaries on this device.
Anyone here familiar with doing this?
I can provide you with backups of the file system.
Let's get these phones free, next stop roms.
Phone you are using?sir

From what I've read, there isn't a high likelihood of us getting fastboot. The main reason bootloader unlocking was possible with previous models was due to Oppo's release of 'project spectrum' firmware.
Our best approach is to make our voices heard on the Oppo forums and/or learn about reverse engineering bootloaders to create a solution.
I'm grateful that we have root (at a cost of signal), it's an excellent starting point at least. Have patience.

That's for sure they release source codes almost 8 months or longer after the device is out. I think I'll have to pass on this device. It's unfortunate because it would have been nice.

What's probably more important is that theres a safe way for us to unlock the bootloader, we can get custom twrp and rom on this without issues, I can develop this but don't plan to maintain this, so hoping there are some maintainers in this device forum. Custom kernel wont bring a large change compared to custom ROM.

As far as i have learnt, for custom ROMs, we would need an ability to unlock the bootloader along with kernel sources. And it is possible to unlock the bootloader for Chinese veriant only. Not sure about Global, but Indian veriant can't be unlocked. So as pf now, custom ROM scenario looks a bit bleak

What are my prospects for installing a custom ROM now or in the future? I had a OP 9 a few months ago & only had it for a short time.

We don't have a MSM tool which would allow us to restore the device from bricking... Until there is an alternative method to recover.... We might not see the custom ROM development.... Thanks to the OP becoming OPPO (or vice versa) and the greedy mindset of blocking stuff...OP is no longer dev friendly but yet another ******* company

If you can't get to fastboot, you need msm and you put your phone on EDL mode. I had to do this numerous times on my 8T. It's a clean and safe way to get back to stock in almost any situation.

If I remember I'll do it once I get out of work but that's a little ways away still but I would just recommend doing it yourself by extracting your own boot images I can and send you a link if I get time if now I'll try to remember after work.

So you didn't flash the entire stock rom? Just the boot image? It is not clear.
For unbricking entire rom is usually needed so I was looking for examples of a full stock rom flash.
I am also looking for a stock version for CPH2417... payload.bin would be amazing.
I softbricked (bootloop) and had to use the CPH2413 (India) software (not good)

I am not aware of any actual oppo shop in my country (UK) to help with unbricking the phone.
Oneplus merged with oppo that is the problem so now they wont release msmtool or any other EDL unbrick method so it's not safe to play around trying to flash the phone anymore.
They do have the unbrick method but refuse to publicly release it to us so no custom roms etc until that happens if ever.
