Project Treble for Alice - P8lite Android Development

Hello! Here we will discuss the development of Project Treble for Alice. I kind of already know how to add it.:
1) you need to create a TWRP WITH a new "Vendor" section"
2)to build the firmware, support Treble
3) Build a kernel with Treble support
Commit to the kernel: https://github.com/thune-xiaobai/an...mmit/5b61c8487f9067bb5efb01d1f4d813e454118d14
(Don't know, but it seems to work)
I'd try it myself, but there's no equipment.

It would be fantastic, but doesn't make sense Treble for alice, because you know, every Oreo ROM doesn't work good on this device...

The developers are dead. Nobody is working for Alice anymore. I myself want to move on to Samsung j7 2016 as it has better Oreo support and a partition I can use for vendor.

I will continue releasing ROMs for this device for a little longer, and probably be the last since OpenKirin probably won't work on this device anymore.
-P.S. This is not the right subforum to post this kind of thread. The "P8lite Android Development" subforum is made just for releasing ROMs, kernels and recoveries.
Regards,

It s not easy as you can see there. Redmi note 4 has qcom chipset and there is just a little game to fix all bugs and got a stable oreo rom. Here on Kirin we need to base all sources in some stuff from emui and we always need latest emui to have latest android os and with it, it s still not a game to fix bugs coz of kirin closed sources.
After this start let s come back at port of treble,
He (dev of redmi note 4) made first a normal lineage os non-treble fully stable and then he moved of drivers in vendor by using cust un-used partition, by this he converted non-treble rom in a treble enabled rom. Here we need first an oreo non-treble stable rom or the result would be the same. Also I was working with haky86 on it and we got flashing vendor and booting up issues.
So it s impossible this here

Isn't enough tho.
I port project treble on my lepro3 from his brother, the lemax2. How they did that, they found unused partition called /firmware about 600mb and created with a script called partition.zip that should be flashed via twrp.
secondly you have to move all blobs in that /vendor, thirdly you need a bindrized kernel fully compatible with oreo. as final thing treble will not solve bugs like ril or camera. so if not fixed in the whole device tree and vendor same bugs will be noticed on treble too.
I'm talking about the experience on my lepro3.

Lol don't but that old and bad phone. If you want good community support buy LeEco Le Pro 3, 10+ official custom roms, treble support etcetc. It's like oneplus 3t but for half of the price, even haky got one.

Bad phone? You call the Samsung j7 a bad phone? Clearly you haven't seen a "bad phone". There are phone's out there from what? 2014? And they're currently running P. When this piece of garbage doesn't even run Oreo. If there's a bad phone, it's the p8 lite, not the j7.

That j7 in 2018 is as good as the p8 lite xd 1 core gpu, exynos cpu. That antutu score is killing me. If you really want a high end phone like oneplus 3t for cheap, look at leeco le pro 3 190+ and even 210+ antutu score.
Sd821 6gb ram adreno 530. Running even android p treble.

At least it has stable oreo, unlike the p8. And the possibilities of it getting p are high, with official Oreo arriving for it in october-ish, possibly with treble included as well

Having a newer android version doesn't mean anything, and tbh, i really liked the P8Lite emui skin, it was very close to android 8 skin. And about under the hood changes, yea... I feel like huawei could give us at least 6.0.1, newer kernel or latest gpu drivers, but meh... don't buy a phone just because it has android x, buy for the hardware. Try xiaomi, or Chinese brands, not Samsung. Those are one of the worst per price ratio phones. That j7 will struggle even with today's games, let alone future ones.

Also, why don't you follow hakys path? 200eu for oneplus 3t specs, treble, volte vowifi android pie everything available I'll highly recomand it, also, it looks like 3t, basically a cheap version of that(i meam like literally, and the quality is same as top high end phones). Get into LeEco Le Pro 3, you won't regret it even after years. Also, tell me ANOTHER photo under 150-200 euro which can run fortnite ) (yep, it's running for me, also vulkan api is overkill, and will be for this phone for at least 5 years). Let's not even talk that everything is open source.

Huawei P8 Nougat Petition

Huawei Mobile*has released the Android 7 Nougat update for the P9, P9 Lite and Mate 8 devices. Why they haven't done the same for the P8, P8 Lite and Mate S, this*only leads to one conclusion:
Huawei*only cares about the factory line revenue generation of their P9, P9 Lite and newer devices! All you customers who purchased new P8, P8 Lite and Mate S*a few months back, you can be sure that Huawei*only wants you to buy a newer mobile phones and leave older devices even if they are still sufficient by hardware side.
The hardware requirements for Android Nougat are irrefutably the same as Android Marshmallow.* Where is 18 month software support?

If I remember correctly it isn't really Huawei's fault. Google doesn't support the version for P8 because of security issues.
Anyway I wouldn't really looking for the Android 7.0, most of the UI is available in Launchers like Nova and other pars of it doesn't really make much of a difference.

EMUI 5 uses new filesystem format which makes phone faster and makes the phone fast even after a long time of usage becauses it doesnt fragment data, i think it could be noticable in midend phone like P8, shame we wont have it...

i dont know M8 but what i can say is huawei itself comfirmed that model P8 wont get further versions of android except those with security patch, Have HTC ever said that they will never get nougat? i think that even if huawei could bring it to us later, they just wont anymore, they released TOO many new devices since then, if they had to maintain all of them they would get crazy and no profit from that what so ever, if there is any hope is very, very small, and i dont have any anymore
I don't have a P8 but I remember always wanting one due to the awesome design. If developers can port Nougat to My Galaxy S4 then I really don't see why Hauwei can't make an official release for the p8. With 2 year software updates the norm I find this extremely unacceptable. The vulkan requirement is false, for I can run nougat on a S4 (custom ROM) and have no graphical issues at all. Good luck with your petition.

nope, you ain't seeing nougat on p8. we chinese users have been asking huawei since the release of emui 5, and all the answer from them is "no major functional upgrades, but security patches will continue". so stop hoping for official emui 5, and cross your fingers for third-party flavors like lineage. btw based on the status of the cm13 and lineage13 here, lineageos suooprt seems promising.

Community development strength

You're a power user. Can the Sony Xperia X keep up? Rate this thread to express how "healthy" the development scene is for the Sony Xperia X. A higher rating indicates available root methods, kernels, and custom ROMs.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
really bad comparing to other devices
I don't agree. We got official Paranoid omni and lineageOs, some stock custom rom with mods and some very talented dev into open Xperia device community. This phone has the lastest OS given by Google and enhanced by Sony (aosp source availaable even for 7.1.1).
We will have Android 8 and, with it the new update system... That means more custom rom possibility.

SailfishOS is an absolute deal breaker for me, as you will have to pay for SailfishOS for the Xperia X.
I don't see a reason why I should pay for a OS, which still lacks of features and probably will be released anyway when the xperia x is completly death.
Did you ever try SFOS? The usage is much cooler than
Android. And there will be an runtime env for Android apps.
I don't have a problem to pay for good things. But nobody
forces you to buy an Xperia X or pay for an alternative OS.
And you know, that an Android with Google services isn't
as free as you think?
Ok, it is getting offtopic.
If we'll could talk with Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 dev community, maybe we have other expectations with the development for this and Xperia X Compact device(s).

Their Snapdragon 650 is a good SoC for Development, more, searching fix some errors that Sony let...
The problem is our own Dev here, is very low...
IDK why.
We'll should to port some things from Xiaomi's Phones (Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon and Xiaomi Mi Max), or, fuse our Dev with them Dev for making "bigger" to Snapdragon 650 SoC, at least.

Guys please don't say our dev community strength sucks that's just unfair and of poor taste. WHY? Because.
Sony Xperia X wasn't much of a hit phone anyway it was expensive and was reviewed as a poor excuse for a flagship phone when it was released so nobody even bothered buy one there were better options back then and this phone did not deserve any attention in fact I only bought this phone because it was so damn cheap when I bought it last year. (from a 2nd hand seller for 150$)
I won't expect lots of devs and variety on custom ROMs for this phone, but I'm happy and grateful that we still got great devs here even if there's only a few.

Now, is the "most seller" together to the Xiaomi A1.
With this, maybe we could see something for make to develop even more for this SoC.
Community development is bad, but not the worst. Unfortunately, "Bootloader unlock allowed" is "No" on my phone so I can't use anything community developed/maintained regardless.
IMO it's alright. We're still under cover of Sony's AOSP and various official projects (Omni and PA), and outside of that there are Unofficial LOS and Treble by Chippa_ahttps://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=6994234 and Sjll respectively. Some of those ROMs are usable as daily driver.
Props to any and all developers who have been keeping this phone alive.

True!! But we dont have a stable TWRP yet..
And I'm worried to install any Experimental builds as I screwed my last phone by doing so... I lost my IMEI for ever.
Meanwhile I've been trying to build an AOSP PIE rom from source using the kernel from ASUS website on GCP but it fails with an error every time.
Looks like there's lots more to learn.
great news hope the camera improves too.

It seems like there are very few developers who have Z5Z. Most of them would have rather gone for oneplus 6 or the poco F1. I am too coming from oneplus 2 and I am huge flash-o-holic. With 5Z, there is a bit of disappointment on that front. It is really good to know that there are few developers who are working on this device. All the best for your work.

We all know 5z is way too better than poco F1. I have both devices and i personally use 5z. Excpt for hardware, daylight camera and battery poco is just a dissapointment. But since it has a developer support
So people prefer poco over 5z

Fully featured Samsung ROM for A6

Do I have your attention now?
Good.
Hi guys. We were discussing on our A6 group that the regular 7870 A6 gets very little love.
Mainly because it's not a very good phone. But that's why it needs more love than its getting, so that the experience of owning it doesn't suck as much xD
Well, I happened to mention that I love my S8 ROM for the J6 because it is fully featured. Even with Pie released and even with 64bit vendor, I always return to my S8+ ROM. I just love it so much.
So, I offered the opportunity to port it to the A6.
Now, there are a couple of things I need to make clear before actually doing this.
As of now, porting ROMs in Pie is a bit difficult because you can't deodex the whole firmware properly, that is why I have not really done any Pie porting.
This port would be Oreo!
Deodexing Oreo has 0 problems and I can easily try to fix problems that happen due to pop up.
So, what would be the benefits?
Imagine being able to use edge screen! Infinity wallpapers! Smart select, bixby vision, scroll capture!
Sure, you don't have the latest OS, but I think having Oreo is good enough
That being said, I do need some active testers. I don't own an A6 so porting will require somebody with the device to test.
If you are interested, leave your comment here and I will contact you when possible to try to make this a reality.
I'll leave you guys with some captures to see if it motivates you a little

my target port very limited..only A8star, A9 2018. i have some thought also to port from s8/s9/note8/note9, but all those series must be come from china open/hongkong region (snapdragon) which could lead me to getting more problems.
after seeing that you successful porting from S8 oreo maybe i also will try from s8 hongkong region
currently i also running A9 2018 port and all bugs has been solved (from released version in here).
the feature almost same from your port but i don't have edge lighting

With a full deodex, you can port no matter the SoC. I've ported both SD and Exynos to Mediatek Sammy phone. I think in general, Samsung likes to use very general lib stuff

i don't think so...even in kernel, how it load stuffs, fstab, etc,, SD and exynos is different. maybe if to mediatek it will work as you said, but if from exy to SD or vice versa it will not work.
regarding lib probably until oreo, starting on pie seems so many changes
Will AOD work? If so I would glad to return to Oreo

I want to be a Tester send me a Private Message with link
Hello guys,I would like to know if the Rom is suitable for the Samsung Sm-A600FN
Complete noob
Could I flash it like stock firmware? And could I obtain camera 2 api? I have A6+ sm-a605fn, it's worth nothing to me if I can't get camera 2 api, so I am more than willing to try, except that I"m a noob and have no clue what deodex is.
Happy to help
Would it be suitable for the SM-A600T1? If so I would be more than willing to aid you in your development and test it for you.

Android Q on cactus ?

Hey everyone!
If you have noticed a lot of the older Xiaomi models and some other phones successfully ran Android Q, of course with minor bugs.
So since Redmi will stop providing MIUI updates after MIUI 11, does anyone plan to develop and test newer android version ?
The GSI partition on this phone is just bad, it's not as flexible as other phones.
And there's hardly any chance to port future MIUI versions (tried to port for some other models, didn't boot ).
So do you think maybe it's high time to make up a proper custom ROM for this ?
MTK makes this task stupidly hard to achieve, i don't think we're getting further than treble anytime soon.

That's true, though some MTK devices did achieve full treble support.
I was looking into Xiaomi Qin 2, and I realized it's interface is damn beautiful. Don't know what it runs on but it sure looks nice. Kinda regret buying 6A for almost the same price. I would have gone for the Qin 2 instead. Of course, I don't think Mi is releasing the Qin 2 software or will it ever get ported ?
