Cyanogen for us? - P8lite General

This is a thread I started for people to try and draw attention from Cyanogen to try and get them to build a ROM for our Huawei P8 Lite.
Feel free to add to the thread and show your support.
Please visit this link also. http://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/116272-request-cyanogenmod-p8-lite-ale-21/

So I take it due to the lack of interest in this thread that nobody with a P8 Lite wants Cyanogen to build a ROM for our device? Are you really that happy with EMUI? Personally I think the P8 Lite would probably perform much better with Cyanogen if my past experience is anything to go by.

I'm interested in this as well +1
But I feel like this post just got lost under the 6.0 Update news, which is pretty cool btw but I'd still prefer either a Cyanogenmod or Stock android rom. .

It probably did get lost in the euphoria of running 6.0 on our device, but hopefully we will gain enough support for the masters at Cyanogen or perhaps some other great developers to build a ROM for our amazing phone.

Yeah that's true. Yall should really add a +1 to the post in the cyanogen mod forum. That might higher our chances

Sorry for that, but cyanogen is really bad (cm 12, 13).only the @temasek unofficial builds works propely, I mean with all basics function fully working without random reboots.
And the p8 lite never see a cm build.

Even P8 don't have CM, let alone P8 Lite.....and P8 is MUCH more popular.

This a bull****. Never P8 Lite get CM

And I want to know what version of xposed have you successfully flashed, a screenshoot was a great proof

+1 (there is still a little hope as some Kirin-based phones did get CM)

At least we're getting a discussion going and maybe, if we're lucky they might pay attention to their request thread on their own website. I've used CM on previous devices I've owned, and I was pretty happy with the way it functioned.

Kernel source code for Ascend P-7

Hello folks, now you can find the kernel source code for the huawei Ascend P-7 EMUI here, http://emui.huawei.com/plugin.php?id=hwdownload&mod=detail&mid=71. However I have not tried yet !!!! I only provide the information.
Is this better kernel than we used
So now many custom roms vl be coming to Ascend P7. Thats an exciting news
That is right
With the opening of this Kernel we hope to see many Developers cooking a good custom Rom for these powerful devices. Let's prepare a beer for them !!!
>That is right
would that means you verified it's a complete one?
Does this mean that an official cyanogenmod port will be possible for this phone? I bought my P7 because I had a good deal, but I was disappointed when I saw that there is no CM (yet)

Hi mate, our friend @surdu_petru is on his effort to build the CM ROM for our device. It might be taking some time to see the beta version released but there are many other custom roms you can try as for the time being. Just get yourself to read more and try. Good Luck!

Hi! Wow, this is great news! I just saw the thread, I was aware that it's not an easy task to port CM or any custom ROM to a new device, but I didn't realize that it's still not a piece of cake even if we have the kernel source. I used to have nexus devices. What a difference.

New roms for Zuk Z1

Hello,
I have an Honor 6 and i want to buy a Zuk Z1. My only hesitation to buy it is the rom community...
Do you think that some Rom teams will develop for Zuk Z1?
Thank you
I think no body interested for making custom rom here. I don't know why.?really this is good device.....
http://bbs.zuk.cn/z1/?filter=typeid&typeid=186 maybe this help
I am interested in custom ROMs but so far the experience with the device's software was pretty decent so I didn't have the urge to custom ROM it just yet.
The only thing I did was mod the kernel and key layouts to restore the capacitive home button because I like capacitive buttons better.
Edit: I would love a Marshmallow ROM though.
Oh Yes... Many roms but is only for chinese version ? Do you think this rom can be available in English for the zuk Z1? Why there are not available on xda ?
@gaara19 may be they work i have Chinese version zuk z1 , i installed Resurrection Rom looks fine till now....but as all ROM based on CM you will not feel any difference.

CyanogenMod is the #1 ROM by any device (maybe Samsung not), so you don't need to look for other roms.
What happens with this device??
Oneplus X have many custom roms, kernels and stuff the same with Oneplus 2. Oneplus X is newer than Zuk!
Development for this device is dead?

Feel free to start something yourself.
God helps those who help themselves.
As for me I've started setting up a build server today and am going to experiment a bit with CM sources tomorrow.
Just to add to this thread, saw that the chinese/english zui rom is reportedly coming with a marshmallow version later this month according to their official comment on it http://bbs.zuk.cn/z1/t46551/ use google translate
Might give this a bash and see how it works when it arrives and if its nice, then make a clean rom without the chinese apps

Looking forward to it. I've tried all the ROMs out so far for the Z1 and found the original ZUI and CM12.1 to be the best choices so far.
Currently I'm running CM12.1 but we will see what the future brings.

No you don't. But you need a account at least.
If you want to download without their app then you need to press the "clone to my baidu" button instead of the download button, and then go into your "my baidu" and download it from there.
Now, instead of forcing you through their app it will just download like a regular file.
Ive managed to download their latest "ZUI 1.2.040" after like 5 tries or so from failed downloads, if anyone wants it just pm me and ill give you a link as ive uploaded it to my mega account (its only a free account and a 10GB bandwidth limitation hence im not making the link public).
Edit: I found that apparently the 10GB bandwidth limit is renewed every 30min (http://freebies.about.com/od/computerfreebies/fl/mega-review.htm) so screw it, here´s a link for the zui rom

Your spot on about that. Marshmallow is coming anyway for this. I was bothered about the lack of roms but this is what you want it to be. I'm happy with this until MM is out. I have it on my nexus 5 and it's a great step forward from Lollipop, but I loved Lollipop until the Nexus updated. I think Google got it right at last. Tyne COS kernel is a weak point.

[ROM][H60-L04][Cherry?][Unofficial] CM 14

~wrong devices kek
Cherry is Honor 4/4X - https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Cherry_Info
I think the Honor 6 codename was hwH60 or something like that.
Please delete the links or the entire thread as soon as possible, if people will start flashing this then we will likely have a lot of bricked devices. Venipa, this is horrible irresponsibility on your side to upload links to unknown stuff without even testing it yourself (even if you put a disclaimer)! And to all the guys thinking that we will magically get working CM one day, think again. You found a semi-official build of CM for some Huawei device and seriously thought it's a H60 build we didn't hear about before? If there is ever a proper CM release, it will take time to do it. But people posting stuff like "I've already posted the Full Source including Kernel Source and still no one wants to do it" will never understand how hard it is to make a ROM, or what exactly "full sources" mean...

I'm not a developer so somebody else should be able to explain it better, but in general, the sources provided by Huawei are at most only useful enough to make a AOSP-style ROM based on the same Android version as the EMUI ROM the source is released for. So, no CM, no newer Androids than Marshmallow, etc.
nooo, got my hopes up (

Not true.Then why kirin based p8 lite has cm14?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/general/cyanogenmod-14-t3458451
Its because we dont have devs and our device isnt that popular.Kirins arent the most rom friendly cpus,but they arent totally useless.

Okay, this proves me wrong. And obviously, I completely ignored the fact that our device already had a CM port, so indeed with a dedicated developer we'd have a chance to get something. What I probably should've said is that a potential developer has a lot of work ahead because of poor sources quality from Huawei, and absolutely no chance to make an official CM port for example. Of course, this all is based on random stuff I read on XDA about it, so you guys should wait until someone more knowledgeable responds to have a clear picture on the problems the development for this device is facing.
Heartbreak.

Fixing bugs on available roms

Hi all p8 lite users!
We know that Huawei will not relase android 7.0 .
And our custom roms are with many bugs.
XePeleato, Haky 86 and other will not fix them.
So i decided fix them on my own.
I DO NOT GUARANTEE 100% THAT I FIX THEM!!!
I will try my best.
But comment what rom to fix.
Asop, LinageOs, Omni?
Need testers too!!!

Really? Thank you so muchh!!!
You gave me hope that this phone can be great again with custom roms.
Repair the rom what is the easiest for you.
Good luck!!
Update: repair the Aosp or the cyanogenmod 12
LineageOS or AOSP. Android 6.0 or higher would be awesome.

Its the OmniROM from haky. Its pretty good but it misses some features.
Fix OmniRom 6.0.1 by Hacky86.
I think it would be easiest to make it stable among the existing Roms.
If u get success then may be u go for other Roms. Bt i need at least one stable Rom to get rid of Emui. ☺ Good Luck to u & Thank u very much!
But I need testers. And I want overview on current status in video. Is there who want to be tester?
Chatting over email.(With testers)
I can't test because my phone is not compatible with these Roms.

I´m here! But I can´t show you the current state. It´s Sunday evening and I don´t have the time atm. If nobody reports to you, I will next Friday or Saturday.
I would suggest you to use the OmniROM because afaik its the most stable ROM we have atm. But features like Wi-Fi are missing. I think haky said he had some prblems with ramdisk.
