First paste the ROM and GAPPS into your SDCard.
Then go into Recovery. (The procedure is the same like with stock Recovery. See here.)
Then as Arco described already.

Install
Use CWM5 or CWM6.
Warning: Only use this recovery to flash CM10. Otherwise, you risk bricking your phone!
Wipe data and cache.
Flash update*.zip.
Flash gapps*.zip. You must flash gapps after every upgrade to CM10 since /system is formatted, wiping your previous add-ons.
Reboot phone.
After you setup your Google account, reinstall the three apps from Market in order to restore most of your apps, call log and SMS history.
Warning: Do not restore backup data of system apps!
If you restore a bad backup with cached settings in telephony.db in data/data/com.*.*.telephony it can break MMS.
It seems that restoring backups can also break Calendar sync.

OR flash the ROM via Odin like you flashed the Recovery. Afterwards you will have to reflash CWM Recovery

The step is totally explained above me.
But if you want fresh ROM installed on yous SGW, I suggest you for doing pristine way.
If you confused how to pristine way you can see the thread in general section. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044861
Other way, you can do full wipe
-wipe data
-wipe cache
-format /system
-go to advance and /format dalvik cache

Better use the one without Picassa, exept you want to use Googles Picassa to store your pictures online. For me it´s more annoying than useful. I use the one without it and even disabled Picassa in my Google Account but nevertheless the Gallery in my Phone is always moaning it couldn´t sync my pics with it when I´m not online.

Boot into CWM5 recovery. Make a full backup. You will need this backup later if you decide to go back to your previous ROM and data.
Is this necessary? what will happen if i dnt make a full bacup?

It is not necessary to do a full backup, but if you encounter problems with your new rom and if you had a backup, it is much more easier to restore a backup with all your files, apps, contacts, sms etc. So it is not necessary but it is highly recommended !!!
You can do a back up with your version of the recovery (CWM6). You do not need CWM5...

I've actually made a pretty complete step-by-step guide when I first flashed my rom, as a guide for my friend. Though some of the links in there might not work anymore, the steps are still pretty clearly shown. If you are interested you can give me your email and I'll forward it to you?

[TUTORIAL] Flash CyanogenMod on TWRP

For CM11 Nightlies:
Find nightlies here:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=n1
If you're already on CM 10.2, just wipe cache and dalvik. Flash over your current build.
If you're coming from anything else, wipe cache, dalvik, data, and system. Then flash normally.
If you want gapps, you'll have to flash gapps as well.
No need for any modified files on nightlies. I assume that official stable builds will still be defaulted to flash on stock recovery though.
————————————————————————————————
CM 10.2 Information. Please do not use the following to flash CM11!
This is the method that I used to install CyanogenMod on TWRP.
I have tested this, and it is working perfectly on CM builds:
cm-10.2-WPPH47N-n1
cm-10.2-WPPH50O-n1
I will continue to test and update as new CM builds come out until CM flashes normally on TWRP
————————————————
First - Have TWRP as your recovery (2.6.3.1). Don't ask me how to do that.
Second - Backup your ROM! Just in-case something breaks, it's not my fault, and I'm not responsible.
————————————————
Now, we begin:
Download the newest CM build for the Oppo N1 from http://www.cyanogenmod.org/hardware/oppo-n1/#images
————————————————
After downloading your CM build from the above link, you'll need to follow these instructions to get setup for flashing in TWRP.
To modify your downloaded CM file, you can use either of the two methods below:
1: You can modify it yourself. It's actually very simple, just one line change.
2: I have attached an already modified updater-script to my post. You can use that and drop it into place (the file inside the zip, not the whole zip).[/b]
YOU ONLY NEED TO USE ONE OF THESE METHODS!
Method 1: To modify the file yourself:
First, open your CM zip that you have downloaded.
Navigate to the folder: META-INF\com\google\android\
Open the updater-script
Remove the first line only! You will remove:
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "N1" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "N1");
Do not remove anything else unless you know exactly what you're doing!
If you modified the file within the .zip, just save the file and it should save to the CM zip.
If you extracted the .zip, save the file and then go back and rebuild the zip.
Transfer over your newly modified CM.zip file to wherever you can find it on your phone (I drop it straight in the root folder).
——————————
Method 2: To download my pre-modified updater-script
Download my attached file (updater-script.zip)
Extract the file inside the zip (there's only one file)
Open your CM zip that you have downloaded.
Navigate to the folder: META-INF\com\google\android\
Simply copy your extracted updater-script from where you extracted it and drop it into the CM zip (It should save after)
Transfer over your newly modified CM.zip file to wherever you can find it on your phone (I drop it straight in the root folder).
————————————————
Reboot into TWRP:
Advanced Wipe ->
Wipe Dalvik Cache, Cache, and Data. ***DO NOT WIPE SYSTEM***
Then install your modified CM file. Please, remember, DO NOTE WIPE SYSTEM.
Reboot system! Done!
:victory:
I hope this all makes sense...
Basically you download the CM rom
Modify or copy the updater-script into the zip
Then you move the ROM to you phone
Then you go through the above area with wiping and flashing
* Pictures are attached
* Please let me know if there are any problems with this.
* Both versions of CM released so far have identical updater-script files. The .zip that I have attached will work on both builds.
* I will keep updating as needed

We're working on fixing TWRP so the asserts work properly.
https://github.com/omnirom/android_bionic/commit/4482d8513920d614e3799a214c5bad07b72580d2#diff-1 broke a lot of things.
https://github.com/omnirom/android_bionic/commit/ad76c85b9ca587084089d086f954158bc0eae905 allows flashing newer firmwares on older recoveries - but not the other way around.
The short-term fix is a TWRP build made from a 4.3 tree - this is 90% done.

@OP: Working with Entropy last night to squash this bug, I flashed his newly built TWRP and was able to go back to ColorOS or CM without issue. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/22964990/n1_twrp_43.img

That's fantastic. I'm glad to hear that it's being work on/working. I suppose fixing TWRP trumps fixing the ROM :highfive:

Correct, the very top link in the OP is the full ROM. You can download the full ROM and flash it in TWRP. It's already fixed and ready to go.
So far that has been the only ROM to come out from Oppo for CM. It contains most of the ColorOS features that work. "Knock" to wake (double-tap), screen off gestures, camera orientation, etc. I'm almost positive that the back touch-pad was working. I haven't been on CM in a little bit though. I'm still working on making changes to ColorOS, and updating as I go.

Camera orientation is handled by the camera HAL blobs.
CM does have back touchpad support but it's wonky (which is why omni hasn't merged it yet, we're still discussing whether to completely rearchitect it or just fix it.)

Hi,
I tried everything and it works. But the root is not working well. I tried installing SuperSu.zip as well as apk nothing works. Any thoughts ?

Go into SuperSU and remove it in the settings (unroot). That will get rid of all of the current SuperSU stuff.
Then flash SuperSU in TWRP.
To flash the unmodified CM, you can try the TWRP in post #3 of this thread HERE.
Or you'll have to remove the same line in the updater-script. The same method posted in the OP. Don't use the uploaded updater-script that I have there though. You'll need to change your own. It's a really simple fix. You don't have to extract all the files out. You can just modify the one file (I use Notepad++).
Sometime tomorrow I'll update the whole OP to include the newest CM version. I'm about to head out to our New Year's event, so I won't be available for the evening.
Enjoy the evening everyone. I wish you all the best! :good: :victory:

i have installed TWRP from #3 - not succes install CM newest version after this
i have unthick superSU and then install again via TWRP superSU.zip after that thick superSU on system android and no succes - root acces didnt come
happy new year
-------
I am a little dissapointed couse I downloaded CM ROM from OFFICIAL SITE http://www.cyanogenmod.org/hardware/oppo-n1/#images and I cannot install it SIMPLE on my device

OP updated! The newest release of CM has been added. I'll keep on top of it from now on, sorry about the delay.
I'm not going to host the CM builds anymore, since the modification is so small from the original CM build. Everyone flashing this should be capable of making the small change that's outlined in the OP.
:highfive:

@Harfainx
it is not a problem to me to delete first line from updater-script but what then ?
I have to zip ii normally or compile using special prgogram ?
why dedicated ROM from CM/OPPO site is not allow to simple install via TWRP ?

After dropping the file in, just save the zip again. If you haven't extracted it, you shouldn't have to do anything special.
Also, CM can easily be installed on the stock recovery. Oppo doesn't control other recoveries.

What's wrong with wiping system?
You don't even wipe system if you go from ColorOS to CyanogenMod?

make nandroid(via recorery) and titanium backup before trying
i use CM11 from may 2015.05.10
because it works i maybe try the recent CM11
(Link2SD dosnt worked there at all)
my titanium backup was abit old (3 weeks) now my whatsapp missing some history
and titanium dosnt let me extract from nandroid (Get stuck)
i think i might restore and use the dalvik version, if i fail to restore my apps

If i understand right, you flashed script without clean install (dev wrote in manual - Flash the script BEFORE the first boot) and it worked?????
I think, dev means "clean install" - That is probably because not all apps will work after flashing script on working ROM.

had problem with gapps...(forced closed) i restored my backup >_<
took to much time,so.. i give up for now. didnt want to try clean installation and install ART gapps

update working untill 5.10 and only ART version working
so it wont so helping cuz i cant update

Dual boot your Redmi 1S

Hey guyzz.. Im Shreyans Jain from Technocraticides. A new channel on YouTube and recently uploaded a new video related to Redmi 1S.
I this video I have showed how to dual boot your Redmi 1S. You can dual boot any rom but here we have dual booted MIUI 7 with CM 13. So please guys to watch this video and if you have any issue or suggestions or problem just comment here, on the YouTube or on our page
I can't post the link as I am a new user thus plz search on YouTube
"Technocraticides"
Please do watch!!
We will continue doing experiments on this device and other devices too and Desktops too..

Text Tutorial
So here is the text tutorial of how to DUAL BOOT your Redmi 1S. :highfive:
PRE-REQUISITE
Here you need the files we need for this process and the links to these files are mentioned below
Backup of your ROM which you are using right now if you want it to use it after the dual boot process (Here MIUI 7 is backed up).
your Redmi 1S should be charged with at least 80% battery (NOT necessary but suggested).
Rooted Redmi 1S with TWRP installed.
The ROMs you want to dual boot and everything for that ROM.
Procedure:
Backup your present rom. (For eg. MIUI 7 ) using TWRP.
Now after backup in TWRP go to home ---> Click on Install ---> Navigate yourself where you have kept the downloaded files ---> Find HM1s-Sysrec.zip and flash it.
This will now delete your Internal memory and factory reset your present ROM. (So backup it before hand)
After flash phone will reboot into recovery mode. Now copy System-Menu-Data-HM1SWC in your Ext. as well as Internal storage. For this connect your device to your PC in recovery mode. Your device will get connected as MTP device. Now copy this file in both Internal as well as External storage.
Now Flash
Sysrem-Menu1.4.1-test.zip . Aroma installer will open. Then Click on English ---> Accept the terms ---> Enter The function ---> Install and Uninstall ---> Install dual system.
Now restore the ROM you backedup earlier.
After this Go to home ---> Again Flash this file ---> Again do all that ---> This time click on Install SystemChanger app ---> System1 ---> Check first option only if you are on MIUI ---> Next
After this flash UPDATE SUPERSU V2.46.zip
Now reboot to system.
When rebooted to system go to SuperSU and go to settings and click on enable SuperSU and after the process again click on it till it installs the SUPERSU again.
Press Home button.
Find the SystemChanger app. Open it ---> Click on Switching.
After a while phone will show Mi logo. Press Vol up+Power button. Phone will enter in recovery mode.
Flash the ROM you wanted in SYSTEM2.
After process Again flash Sysrem-Menu1.4.1-test.zip --->Do all that ---> Click on Install SystemChanger app ---> System2---> Check first option if it is MIUI else continue.
Root the ROM any how. (If you want to know how to root a specific ROM reply below)
Click on Reboot to System
The System will boot into System2.
Set it up.
After setting you will find SystemChanger app here too. Open it click on switching to boot into system1.
After the phone boots System 1 then congratulations.
Download Links:-
SUPERSU.ZIP(https://www.dropbox.com/s/1m65kr444umvi34/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip?dl=0)
System-Menu-Data-HM1SWC (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ysb1h5xbgfstlsr/System-Menu-Data-HM1SWC?dl=0)

It actually divides your NAND partition into two and you can dual boot cm12.1 with any ROM.

MIUI works perfectly on system partition 1. Try installing it on Sys partition 1 and other rom on System Partition 2

"7. After this Go to home ---> Again Flash this file ---> Again do all that ---> This time click on Install SystemChanger app ---> System1 ---> Check first option only if you are on MIUI ---> Next"
tried many times but no luck, till i leave them uncheck and it works, yes it for miui v7 on 1st system partition
and it didnt devide the nand entirely, they still share the same /data partition including internal sdcard. so if 1 rom do factory reset or restoring /data the other rom will have /data partition erased, is there any solution?

ehm so it rather complicated, let say i already have 2 rom installed and i want to replace 2nd rom with new 1, so i will need these steps:
1. make sure i have full backup system1
2. change to 2nd rom through the system changer app or the system changer installer
3. full wipe 2nd rom
4. go back to 1st system partition through system changer installer
5. restore /data
6. go back to 2nd system partition through system changer installer
7. install new rom
8. install system changer app
am i correct?

Or you can do a thing
Boot into 2nd system using system changer app
Boot into recovery
Wipe and just install the ROM
Install system changer app

Bro you cant just criticize like that! You may encounter some problems but that doesnot mean its because of this methord. Im personally using it for over 1 month and too use snapchat, instagram, facebook, whatsapp on both roms (Not whatsapp as it can be installed on a single ROM only) but I didnt encountered any issue!
Please be sure what you are posting. You told a guy above also that the method is risky. He/She may now wint install. Please bro please.

There is no need to including md5, it is for checking purpose is your downloaded file is corrupted or not.

Thanks a ton for this! Worked awesome!
Since I went from stock 5.0.2 -> 5.1.1 ... I tried not wiping data and it seems everything still works fine! My apps, settings and data are all there =) ... so far w/o bugs.
I installed cyberian 7.1 camera(primary reason for my attempt at the upgrade) ... and seems to be working 100% w/o issue =)

An update, its still working amazingly bug free!!! (w/o data wipe)
Also, *I think* battery life has much improved ... but that may be because I wiped cache and also turned off Stamina mode after reading it sucks battery life rather than help it lol!
I did run into some battery level quirkiness within the first few days of install, but hoping it was just some learning curve the OS had to do w/ battery ... time will tell =)
I do have a question tho, just noticed you state the bootloader/recovery is "locked"? Does this overwrite my previous "unlocked" state and its relocked now? Or does an unlocked state persist? Thanks

No,this doesn't overwrite your unlocked bootloader. your unlocked state is persist.You can check by dialing *#*#7378423#*#* /Service info/Configuration/Rooting status:

Sad update, seems my phone has fallen victim to the "LP upgrade & damaged battery" coincidence =( ... I know its not a fault of ur ROM. Phone works fine from 100% to 50% then a 50% it rapidly drops to 1% and shuts off =/
That being said, ordered a replacement battery kit + back door + NFC tag. Hopefully normal battery functionality will be restored after its replaced =)
Seems to be a widespread problem =/ Its weird because I had LP 5.0.2 on it previously.

Battery replacement went well, back to full expected usage time!

Bro I have tried locked bootloader. But I think GenTarkin installed on unlocked bootloader successful. First you should flash stock.ftf and after go further as first post.

Dirty flash I love you dirty flash blahblahblah
Thanks for this, just what I needed without the hasle as Gen said I just flashed over the rom I was using (mx 8.5), wiped dalvik and that other thing but kept data and now my phones overheating has stopped, installed xposed and my tweaks reinstalled themselves... Because of the dirty flash some of the apps needed updating but apart from that its ask good... Nice one

Update Zip
Zip is updated with Xposed and SU 2.79

There is a problem with Facebook and Messenger app (normal, not lite versions). When my girlfriend is trying to run these apps the screen just is just blinking (black&white) every 0,5 of sec. and nothing else is happening. Reinstalling those apps does not solve the problem.

You need to install an older version of facebook.
