[Honor 6, 6 Plus Android Development] paulobrien:
Let's get some custom ROM tweaking going on for our 6 Plus'! :)

Ahead of my own MoDaCo Custom ROM for the 6 Plus, which is coming soon, I've created a custom ROM starter template for anyone who wants to have a go. It's a bit different.

Basically, this ROM template will let you create your own custom ROM VERY easily. Easier than ever before. All you have to do is...

download my ROM template zip

make the changes to the system of your phone just as you'd like them for your custom ROM

run some commands on your device via ADB

add the resulting files to the template zip

That's it! No messaging around with install scripts, no rebuilding anything complex, just mod - and go! ;)

Preparation

ONLY if you are completing the process for the first time, you need to set up a file on your microSD card - so launch and ADB shell and type the following commands...

touch /sdcard/exclude
echo app > /sdcard/exclude
echo priv-app >> /sdcard/exclude

ROM build

Once you have your system up and running how you want it, and you're ready to distribute it (just the system and cust dirs mind, it won't pull the data dir, so your personal data is safe), reboot to recovery, launch an ADB shell and type the following commands:

mount /system
tar -X /sdcard/exclude -zcvpf /sdcard/system.therest.tar.gz /system/
tar -zcvpf /sdcard/system.apps.tar.gz /system/app /system/priv-app
mount /cust
tar -zcvpf /sdcard/cust.tar.gz /cust

You'll then end up with 3 new files on your SD card - system.apps.tar.gz (which is apps and priv-apps from system), system.therest.tar.gz (which, as the name suggests, is the rest of the system partition!) and cust.tar.gz with is the cust partition contents.

Update the template zip with these 3 files and that's it. It's ready to distribute for people to flash via TWRP! If you have updated the boot image, you'll need to replace that too, the easiest way is to do a TWRP backup then pull that file from the SD card and drop it into the template zip as boot.img. That's really it!

I hope this inspires a few people to start playing around with custom ROMs for the 6 Plus.. more cool things coming soon! :)

Oh and the all important template file...

[MENTION=220328]paulobrien[/MENTION] what would it take to get a "pure" Android ROM running on the P9? Don't know if I'm being clear here - what I'd like is something like a Nexus experience, on the P9, Android cleanly and not this EMUI wackiness.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Akhayev:
What about eva-l19 ??
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] bnwg:
I hope there will be development by some genius here from XDA for a custom ROM with stock camera implanted that the outstanding photo by co-engineering with Lecia with its certified lens can sustain.

If not it seems losing the purpose to own P9 that marketing itself with Lecia.

But it's just my two cents.

I have a Chinese EVA-D00. All the CHinese stuff on it is driving me nuts. WOuld this ROM work on it, or are they not interchangeable? Mine is a dual sim model. Thanks
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] r0bb3r:
It didn't flash on my EVA-L10 (without root), but I'm guessing if you root your phone you would be able to flash the ROM, but no guarantees it will work, since it's a different hardware (single sim).
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] dkionline:
i think theres not to much changes between this models. Only kernel DualSIM and NFC are the clues to run on both models. im a rom dev, but i didnt get my device yet. The actual pricedrop is now a hint to get it soon.

EVA-L19

This is the first time i am trying to make a rom..I got a twrp backup of my phone (l-19) and renamed the boot.emmc.win to boot.img, replacing the boot.img in a zip. after following all the steps, i was able to get the final zip ready with the cust.tar.gz, system.apps.tar.gz and system.therest.tar.gz. After flashing it on my phone, it doesn't go past the boot screen..

when i was performing the steps, the mount step showed the usage of the command but i was able to generate the required files. attached screenshot.

any ideas what i am doing wrong.. :)

mount /system

if there are any other ways to create a rom, if someone can point me in the right direction :)

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] bahua78:
Yes, yes, yes, a thousand times, yes. The P9 needs an AOSP ROM that is 100% EMUI-free. I would use that in a heartbeat, and even give up some premium features(fingerprint and camera) to get it.

I would also love to learn how to build one myself.

Thank you
[Mate 8 Android Development] paulobrien:
Bad news... The kernel source doesn't work properly!

I suspect it's just outdated, but using it results in graphical artefacts and random reboots.

I've raised it with Huawei but I'm not optimistic of an update any time soon I'm afraid.

Good news kernel (open source) has been released for the mate 8 , can be downloaded from:

http://consumer.huawei.com/en/opensource/index.htm
[Mate 8 Android Development] Kingzak34:
Where do you see that ? I only see the one from January 2016 that was already outdated one month later.
[Mate 8 Android Development] danywalkert:
I see this...

When you type Mate 8 into the search box, this is what comes up:

Mate 8, NXT, Android 6.0, EMUI 4.1

And it seems to be the latest most complete open source they have released for the mate 8, as a matter of fact the vae released 2 versions, I have dowloaded them both, heres the link to my Gdrive if you want to take a look:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B-owb4GVYz30dFZwZFdaS3pOQW8?usp=sharing
[Mate 8 Android Development] Kingzak34:
As I said this one was released more than one year ago.

Envoyé de mon HUAWEI NXT-AL10 en utilisant Tapatalk
[Mate 8 Android Development] danywalkert:
Wrong!

Nope, wrong!

They released this one a year ago (aprox):

Mate 8 OpenSource %28 NXT Android 6.0%2Ckernel%2Coverseas%29 .tar

They have just released this one in 2017, around febraury:

NXT-MM_EMUI4.1_opensource.tar

And no, they are not the same! latest is still Marshmallow yes but it has been released recently. I know cuz I have been looking all over for this, like I said I have them both.

You are correct, its outdated since Mate 8 is already in Nougat but the fact of the matter is that emui 4.1 seems to work better on the mate 8, better than emui 5.0 (nougat) and seems like Huawei is never going to release a polished Emui 5.1 ROM for the Mate 8 and of course they are not going to release the Open Source, they dont want us upgrading the mate 8, they want us to buy the Mate 9.
[Mate 8 Android Development] Kingzak34:
My bad then, I was pretty sure it was the same. Still, it sucks that's only EMUI 4.1, newer software may make LOS 14 happen quicker (and easier, but still not easy).

I asked by mail with Contact Us form in huawei site to release an updated open source software, maybe if enough people do this we can make it happen ?

(I know we're a bit off topic here but it just went as is).

That's what they answered :

I dont think they did anything with it but we can try.
[Mate 8 Android Development] danywalkert:
lol! I contacted them too...

I contacted them too, they gave me a link to their Open source site, there is where I got the latest version of the open source for the mate 8 , then they said that if I had any questions, I should just reply on the same mail they answered and I did asked them a few things and that was it, did not hear from them anymore =(

Theres a good chance that Lineage 14 could happen for our mate 8 because there already are 2 AOSP ROMs on Nougat 7.1.2 version that have been developed for the Honor 8, a device that happens to be almost identical to the Mate 8.

I have been thinking on starting a challenge for developers, all the Mate 8 owners that want AOSP ROM should chip in and raise certain amount of money then we should offer this money as a prize for the developer that delivers a stable AOSP ROM for our mate 8!
[Mate 8 Android Development] Kingzak34:
LAOS 14 is already on its way courtesy of [MENTION=7725735]_skypol0[/MENTION] who already brought us LAOS 13 but without any 7.0 source is not the easiest thing and he is the only one on this project so far. Anyway he's working on it. And a lot of thanks to him for this.

Intel Remix OS is based on Android x86/x64 which is non-native to touch screen. Nonetheless, with some ROM mod. skills, I believe you can inject touch screen driver into it on your own (I don't own such a skill though).
