Poor custom ROMs development.
Sent from my DUK-L09 using XDA Labs

Good amount of custom ROMs but could have been much better, may be expecting similar to 5X

not really good custom roms development

Yeah only few.
Coming from 5X development section so hope is high but not actually

Veru poor development.

Weak point. Not even 10 AOSP ROMs.

I heard OnePlus released the source for the 3. If its true, the 3 would survive for as long as OnePlus 1
Oneplus released the sources while presenting the OP3. The warranty covers software changes made by the user. This device is all about editing every possible part. Community development strength = 200%
id say the development here soo far is better than the nexus devices.
The community here is amazing!!
It's a bit early to say, but it looks good.
Official CM in just days. Lot's of roms already with good support.
Definitely very alive. I was in the G4 community before; development was a ghost town.
Plus with Dash Charging kernel sources just having been released, there's literally not a single feature we'll be missing out on by during custom ROMs, unlike most phones.
I've heard the non OOS based ROMs have issues with the camera, is this true?
Dash charge is finally out so this is one of the main things holding me back at this point

Yes so CM-based ROMs lack the OOS post-processing for photos in camera.

That's unfortunate. Is there a way to export the OOS camera into a cm based ROM?
Dev support for one plus is excellent
This is what's pushing me toward buying a OP3 over the ZTE Axon 7. The ZTE may have better specs in some areas (ex. full USB 3.0 speeds, more frequency bands, expandable memory, sharper screen), but I've been reading that developer support for ZTE isn't good, at least for their other phones. And it's not like I'm going to really come close to filling up 64GB of space to begin with........just have to nudge the wife into signing off on the expense
One thing I'd be happy if it did come would be Multi Rom that be awesome to have on the one plus 3 So we can have more than one rom to boot back an forth instead of reflashing

OP is without a doubt a better choice if ROM development is important to you. That's why I'm here; I had both the Nexus 4 and 5 - I wanted to stay with the Nexus line, but the 6P had already been out for a while and I didn't want to wait for the next Nexus device. There have admittedly been a few kinks (I'm still battling random reboots), but overall, I think it was a good choice.

You're mirroring my situation almost exactly: I've had the Nexus 5 for about 2 1/2 years now or so, looking to upgrade, but the N6P is closing in on a year old, the new Nexus models are likely to be much more expensive than the N5 was, and I want something I can tinker with but won't be obsolete in 6 months or ignored by the dev community. Thanks for being an inadvertent guinea pig

Hahaha no problem.
The communiti on OnePlus One was great, and so many great ROM-s out there, some had better camera, some better batery, some had this some had that, but on op3, I really have no need to 'touch' anything, great camera, battery life is ok for me, multitasking great, and maybe I'm getting too old for experimenting

Overall it's a very good phone. But it seems forgotten by Honor.
Sent from my DUK-L09 using XDA Labs
a flagship kinda of phone ruined by lack of updates.
its really nice phone.overall
But lack of updates made this bad..this must have received Nougat. Hardware wise it's super phone.
Looks good after the launch, but way depreciated now.
Users loved this phone but Huawei seems to never loved it.

Sent from my DUK-L09 using XDA Labs
Used to emui now so no difference here.
hops this had received EMUI 5 update..MM was last update for it unfortunately. Doesnt support Volte also in India
i am not really a fan of emui 4 but its ok
No EMUI 5.
This is the sad part. Lack of updates.

Considering the carriers have strongarmed the manufacturer into locking the Snapdragon powered S10's bootloader, I'd say they effectively killed the development scene and have ostracized each and every one of the true power users in North America.
I want root access to the device I just forked over $1700 dollars for and own outright. I want a damn 31 band equalizer AND contactless payments AND have the necessary bands required for use in my area...
Is it really that much to ask for?
