Huawei P8 Lite 2017 LineageOS Discussion. - P8 Lite (2017) Discussion

Any news or developments to make an Official LineageOS for Huawei P8 Lite 2017? It would be awesome if this happened. There is already an Official Resurrection Remix OS for the Huawei P8 Lite 2017. And what should one do to make it official?

There's an official RROS for Prague? Where?
Sorry, I'm a bit out of the loop. Is it Pie?

Theres a group called OpenKirin that makes Custom ROMS for Huawei devices. They support a bunch of Huawei devices, you can check out on there website if your device is supported. They also have a telegram group. Huawei P8 Lite 2017 models PRA-LA1, PRA-LX1, PRA-LX3 is supported. They currently only make LineageOS, RR and Omni ROMS. RR is the only official rom. All of them is based on Android 8.0
They currently made Omni Pie based rom. It's in Alpha stage 2. You can flash it but there is some bugs.

Oh, I didn't know that OpenKirin's RROS is official. I flashed one of their ROMs once, it ran really well. It's a shame they don't release their ROMs without GAPPS.

At least its gapps pico.

Why did u post this twice? And performance wise, Omni. And if you are looking for customizibility then lineageos 13
I just got P8 Lite, what is the best stable ROM that i should flash, i'm going on a trip for next month so i need stable ROM, i have no time to test few ROMs. I don't really like EMUI.
Are Lineage OS 13 or 14.1 stable enough?

Omni is the most stable one.... Just heats up a little
Rremix and 14.1 can give some problems with heavy workload but fine with day to day tasks

Huawei ALE L21 Update Android 7

Hy guys,
I'm new on this forum, and I'm French, so sorry for my English if is not very good. I have Huawei P8 lite ALE L21. So I installed Lineage OS 14.1 UNOFFICIAL on my Huawei. But i have some questions. This versions of LIneage OS is UNOFFICIAL, but the version of this Lineage OS can will be updated later for the new Android O or updated with new features?
And Can I install android 7 without custom rom just with update firmware?
And last questions, do you know custom rom 7.1.2 stable for Huawei ALE L21? And can will be updated?
I hope I have a answer soon, sorry for my English but I hope you'r undestanding what I'd said.
Thx a lot,
Bye ,
Polo
I have to disappoint you but there won't be probably further custom ROMs (especially Android O) . The devs are mainly focused at other devices.

P8 Lite will not be updated further, to EMUI 5.x+ (Nougat and beyond) afaik

The LineageOS and ResurrectionRemix ROMs are similarly stable. The problem is that they don't get actively developed any more. Make sure to use the appropriate CPU fix. (UPDATE: INCLUDED IN NEW BUILD) I'd go with RROS because it has more customisation options and is designed to work with substratum.
That said:
* GPS doesn't work
* Video Recording only works on some apps, e.g. an app called Footej Camera will become your camera option
* I couldn't recieve calls, but that might have been only for me
* Use ForceDoze to save battery
And always make sure to look around in the thread, not just the main post. There are small and big fixes hidden in there sometimes
As for android O, OpenKirin repository has an android-O branch. We shall see if we get it.
UPDATE: RROS has been updated. Maybe there's still hope for this device.

Has anyone tested for treble on the oreo beta?

I'm looking for a treble device to start learning rom development and I'm wondering if treble is confirmed on the P10.
Thanks.
It is for the beta oreo version.
P10 PLUS
P10 plus b360
P10 (not plus) also supports Treble
Yeah it has treble support, I've tried treble stock 8.0 rom by phhusson and it had worked, but it had not been stable so i rolled back to emui 8. Hope someone will make a p10 rom on the base of treble
On a side note, quick question, will the Huawei P10 get Android P?

I think yes, with treble support Its easier to make updates
P10 will more than likely get Android P thanks to treble support and hopefully the waiting time will be reduced considerably.

Official Custom Rom..request to developers

Anyone knows when official custom roms will be released for moto X4. I like to flash official ROM as its my daily driver device.
In custom ROM section, those are unofficial.
There are only Lineage, Resurrection Remix v6.1, Carbon ROM, & that too Unofficial Version.
When can we see Pixel Experience, Omni ROM, AOSP extended, Liquid Remix, CrDroid, Firehound ???
It looks like Moto X4 is neglected device, one side MOTO is not releasing regular update, for my XT1900-2 its still on android 8.0, jun patch, & Other side there are no official popular ROM, i request all developers on XDA to focus on moto X4 so that users like me can enjoy bunch of latest android features.
Unbelievable.
There's no ETA for anything...
But, LineageOS 15.1 will become official and you can flash the GSIs found at Project Treble section, just follow the guide to install Android Pie found here.
No official yet,and process of porting android 9.0 is too complex. Can't we have flashable rom zip one file for android 9 moto x4

WILL become official... Just wait, maybe Tuesday...
The only zip available for Pie is LineageOS 16, but it's in development, not only for our device, but the system itself.
Great news, eagerly waiting...

Custom Rom on Huawei p9 EVA-L09

Hello everyone, I have a huawei p9 EVA-L09 branded (TIM, I come from Italy).. Is it possible to install a custom ROM, better if pixel experience? has android 7.0 and EMUI 5.0.3. Thank you!

First of all, to flash anything (root,TWRP, custom ROMs) you must unlock Bootloader
Second, check the threads in ROMs section but if I recall correctly for P9, EMUI 5, there were only two or three custom ROMs based on stock and one or two (LOS and maybe RR) based on AOSP - developed (and stopped) back in 2017
EMUI 5 was not ready for GSI ROMs, and every custom ROM must have been adapted and ported to P9
You probably think about new, GSI based Pixel Experience or similar ROMs - for that you would first need to update to EMUI 8, Oreo (and rebrand from your Italian to Chinese EMUI because EMUI 8 was only released for China)
All together not impossible but not as easy and friendly as if you would have a new (Android 9 or 10) Xiaomi, One Plus or a similar phone where you just unlock Bootloader and start experimenting with GSI ROMs
Last but not the least, specially if you are a newbie, think about the community regarding help, learning from, sharing experience - there are only two or three users who are still actively experimenting with GSI/AOSP custom ROMs on P9, posting only something from month to month here, hence you will mostly need to go alone

If your device is unlocked, rebranded and updated to EMUI 8.0, you can install GSI ROMs with some issues. You're better off installing OpenKirin ROMs or sticking to EMUI 8.0. This device isn't very active in development, but we will try to help. You can install phh-based Android O/P ROMs. Android Q GSIs don't work because of this device's VNDK 26.
