It includes smart features like charging and game mode with FPS meter support, and is bloat-free, regularly updated, and optimized for the OnePlus 8.
Before starting the installation, ensure your phone's bootloader is unlocked. You will also need the CR Droid ROM zip file, the Orange Box Recovery Image, and ADB Fast Boot tools installed on your PC.
Power off your phone, then press and hold volume up + power to enter fastboot mode. Connect your phone to your PC and use the command prompt to type 'fastboot recovery recovery.img' (or relevant command to flash Orange Fox). Once completed, use volume keys to select 'recovery' and power button to boot into Orange Fox.
In Orange Fox, navigate to ‘Wipe’ then ‘Advanced Wipe’. Select 'Dalvik / ART cache', 'Cache', 'System', and 'Data', then swipe to confirm the wipe. Go back to the main menu and tap 'ADB sideload', then swipe to begin sideload mode.
On your PC, type the command for ADB sideload followed by the CR Droid ROM zip file name. Allow the installation to complete. Reboot to recovery again, select 'Apply Update', 'ADB Sideload', and connect to the PC. In CMD, type 'adb sideload' and drag and drop the GApps zip file. Wait for the process to finish.
Once all installations are complete, your OnePlus 8 will boot into CR Droid Android 15. The video concludes by encouraging viewers to enjoy the fast, bloat-free, and customizable experience, and to like, subscribe, and comment for more custom ROM content.
