[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
No, i just reset my phone because i thought the update was the reason for the "encryption". You absolutely need it, else it'll fail :)

Download the .img file and install it from TWRP. Under "install" select "install image" and find the file.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tobs3596:
Does this method really work?

So its not necessary to install it like surdu said?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Cube777:
Hello - thanks for all the work on cm! Can you please elaborate on the current state of HWC? From your changelog it is unclear if HWC is disabled, another user asked the same question a few posts back but wasn't answered. Also, does anyone have any problems registering a fingerprint on the device? It took me quite a while to add a fingerprint (it kept losing progress for some or other reason). Thanks for all the hard work!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Yes if you already have twrp you can install the new twrp that way ;) i just did and im running it now :)

And stock hwc is disabled in the 20161117 version.

I had the same issue with fingerprint btw..
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
You'll be able to install Rom, but not to use it ... so, the new TWRP is mandatory !

As it clearly specified into Changelog, HWC is disabled !

Please , take a look here , under Currently Not working : !

How I could I be more clearer than that ?

Best regrads !
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Regarding the fingerprints - if you already added one finger, exits the fp menu and go back in, if you hit the fingerprint scanner while listing the fingerprints your settings application will crash.

Adding more than one finger will not be possible as it will instantly say "registration not successful" when you hit "add fingerprint".

Something is fishy with the scanner - is this due to hwc being disabled?

BTW my Concern about the not working list was regarding things that appeared after the release as dysfunctional. Such as now, you should probably state that fingerprints are unstable - so people are aware and so it doesn't appear 10 times here. Sorry for not being clear enough, I kindly wanted to be helpful and not annoying by asking that :)

Edit: used camera with flash and the flash fires off before shutter can manage to capture a photo. Just letting you know that flash doesn't work unless on continuously.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
Hmmm, take a look here ... and I was able to added pretty fast !

At least for me, fps is stable and usable ... so no issue here .
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tobs3596:
Hey,

i just installed the Rom, but i could not installiert gapps...twrp said something like unable to Mount data

What can i do?

All my contacts are saved to my Google account so i need gapps
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] spences10:
[MENTION=2335078]surdu_petru[/MENTION] what ARM64 gapps do you use? Stock or Pico?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Hello!

I faced another problem with my front facing camera today.

https://youtu.be/s47fAWk6yj0

The picture all appear green and unusable. Check the video.

Video below shows the fingerprint problem.

It crashes when I hit my finger on the sensor while listing the fingerprints. Also it won't let me add new ones.

https://youtu.be/Ku6Lpfv7YyM
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] spences10:
Have you installed an ARM64 variant of gapps? I had that problem because I was using ARM instead of ARM64
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
I'm using : open_gapps-arm64-6.0-micro-20161117.zip !

Yep, I have the same issue ... like a workaround you should set Front camera photo to (16:9) 2.1 MP !

Please, I need a logcat when you try to add the second finger ... in my device HUAWEI P9 EVA-L09, I have not this issue ! Thanks .

Best regards !
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
I did not have time to sort the logs. But this log started when screen was off, unlocked the phone, and the fingerprint settings were open- I firstly tried to add a new finger, then i crashed the settings by pressing my already added finger to the sensor.

Hope it's any useful.

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tobs3596:
I cant even find an option to enable fingerprint...where is it?

Thanks
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Hi tobs!

It would be possible to enable It during setup.

Else wise you can go to settings - lockscreen - fingerprints :)
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tobs3596:
There is no option fingerprint in lock screen...
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
That is indeed weird. Which model do you have, and which CM did you install?

Could be nice to inform the OP-
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tobs3596:
I've got the EVA-L09 model I think and installed the latest cm from 17.11. and the new twrp from surdu

I don't knwo, what I have done wrong...I also already did a factory reset and a instlalled the ROM an gapps a second time
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Potato997:
You have to go back to stock, then reboot in TWRP

Do a factory reset (DO NOT WIPE SYSTEM)

Flash ROM and gapps

Do another factory reset and reboot

Fingerprint should works now ;)
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] tobs3596:
I didn't wipe system at all.

So do i have to do a factory reset now?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
This will not directly help as i wiped my entire system and SD card before applying the last update, and it worked. I did not need stock firmware first.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
New update soon !

Hello !

New update soon !

GPS already fixed .

New module HWC, thanks to XePeleato !

So please stay tuned :o

Best regards !

Edit :

Right now, fps do not work at all on my device .... need some time to fix it !

Anyway a new update will be here after fps will be proper fixed .
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] richish:
What about dual sim support??? Or i miss some information.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
Sorry, this issue will not be fixed , my build is only for device single SIM ! ( My device is also single SIM, so I cannot test/fix issues on dual SIM )

Thanks for understanding .
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] FcukBloat:
sir, can i ask you if also your honor 8 is single SIM? if so, no dual sim support for both i think, so i can't get neither of the two phones.. :(
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
Unfortunately yes, they both have one single SIM ...
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] colthekid:
This is good news! been waiting for GPS as I use a satnav app on a daily basis! Looks like i'll have to try CM now!

My only other reservation is the camera... Is it the Huawei camera app or one built into CM?

Assuming a CM camera, what about the special features the P9 camera has (i.e Wide Aperture and Monochrome) which use both lenses? Are those available in the CM camera?

Can we simply copy the Huawei camera app over (Or by Titanium Backup)?

I got this phone partly because of the excellent reviews of the camera, and have taken some stunning pictures with it, so I see little point in losing some of its major features just for CM even if EMUI annoys the hell out of me! :D

Thanks for your efforts though!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] aceclift:
hi, no you can not just simply install and use the Huawei camera application as it does not work. The camera in the ROM is the default cm13 one
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] geekercai:
How about p9plus ? I cannot find a new version for it
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] xf69:
Please ask in the P9 Plus thread and as always: never ask for an ETA. Let the developer work. Thanks
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
[MENTION=2335078]surdu_petru[/MENTION] - the proximity sensor does not disable my touchscreen in calls.

Can you check if that's happening to you too? Anyone else having it as well?

I very often suddenly hang up or mute/pauses the active call.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Cube777:
I've seen some interest in this thread as to running the stock camera app on cm - I did some research and found this thread (here). I am not experienced enough to be able to perform this but maybe a senior member can help?

I'm not currently running cm but on the previous update mine worked correctly IIRC
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Oh well, I think it requires a bit more than that. First of all you need all drivers and everything related to the camera to be ready. And I doubt that's what it is so early. We have basic camera functionality, even with a flash that doesn't fire correctly - so don't expect it do be done very soon. First of all the basics underneath the app need to be ready. I'm not a developer for Android myself so I'm not sure how this would be done.

And Yeh, the previous update worked well regarding the proximity sensor.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
Fps can be fixed for moment by re-installing stock Huawei firmware update.app ! Also you shouldn't wipe /system into TWRP . Wipe factory reset is enough for remove /data encryption , and just reinstall cm-13.0 ! At this time fps is working correctly.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
New Update CM-13.0 !

Update removed due to some issues ...

As the issues was fixed, you can start to re-download this update from here .

Thanks for understanding !
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] askor:
Amazing. Thank you. I hope you will make 100% working problemless cm. I didn't expect that I will be able to install cm when I was choosing p9. Great news for old nexus user :)

[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Cube777:
Thank you very much for your work surdu_petru! In the new update FPS working much better now - no problems there. Sadly the lag is through the roof. Its VERY bad at startup, then after you turn off the screen it gets better but still a lot of noticeable lag. But still, thank you for making cm on the P9 a possibility.

EDIT: Lag seems to get better the longer you use the device. I'll run some apps I'm used too and will report back on the performance

EDIT2: Lag does get better but it comes and goes. Apps that usually run fine on my device (cardboard in this instance) have stuttering sounds as well as graphics. Sadly the performance does stay rather shabby throughout usage (battery mode set on 'performance')

After seeing denNorske's post I became sceptical of my own results. I reflashed cm and this time everything is working perfectly. I have absolutely no idea what changed but the lag is completely gone! Thank you very much for you work surdu_petru!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
Thanks .

As there is no source from Huawei to help as, I do think it's a pretty good start with this new HWC ... [MENTION=7354786]XePeleato[/MENTION] will work to improve stability and compatibility with our rom . I hope soon to have a better implementation :o
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Its quite impressive what some people can do. I'm very thankful for the effort and time that's used on this, and I'll be donating soon for you guys.

After a reboot the lags are almost 99% gone for me and I can live nicely with this update. Good job as always! Don't forget to update the GPS part on main post ;)

Just wondering, which things would you be focusing on for the coming updates?

I attached an antutu benchmark. It's only 3k points from the highest p9 entry :) that means very great performance.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Cube777:
After seeing denNorkse's post I reflashed the device with cm and everything works perfectly now - I updated my previous post, sorry for the confusion! I have no idea what changed but the lag completely disappeared and the device is running cm wonderfully! Thank you very much!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] calz0:
First of all: thanks for your great work, everything is running smooth and now as GPS is fixed, the ROM is perfect for me!

Anyways my phone gets warm and has a high battery drain sometimes, but that's okay, since it's still enough for me.

Can we even get a better battery life or is this not possible on not stock based ROMs?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
Yes, as soon as HWC will be fixed, there will be no battery issue. Thanks for understanding !
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
I'm just letting you know that the hot phone issue is really

dangerous.

DO NOT CHARGE YOUR PHONE WHILE IN A BED or so

(You should never do that btw..)

The temperature while charging from a dedicated charger unit, is waaay to hot, and I would say it's dangerous.

Woke up this morning, and picked it up from the floor - the floor and the phone was outrageously hot, and I could not hold it. My first reaction was to unplug the charger and let it stay on the floor for a while more.

Does it happen with anyone else?

Worth mentioning - I had it on performance mode before i went to bed, but the unit wasn't used through the night.

I added some pictures of my cpu Z after the phone has been idle, not plugged in a charger. It has been idle for 1 hour and I took this Screenshot. Has been draining 10 percent since.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] calz0:
I'm putting it into flightmode while charging while I sleep, it doesn't get that hot then. It's still warm in the morning but not hot and I need the alarm(s) :silly:

Btw is my battery empty after 4 hours useage, since the update from yesterday.. that can't be good. Maybe some app is running in the background, didn't have that problem yesterday.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
I think that would be a direct effect by the new HWC. Just patiently wait for a new update, I guess they'll sort that out first of all before fixing anything else. We'll see.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] malezlo22:

You should use this TWRP when installing the Rom. :)

Yes i use this recovery boot to recowery when i must enter to password gives skip the installation continues to be the same

I heve after android 7.0 meyby this is problem
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Format and wipe data - and try again. When it asks for password on TWRP just press skip.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Cube777:
The temperature issue became apparent to me this morning - I unplugged when I felt it getting abnormally hot quick. Just want to make sure, but this shouldn't have damaged the phone correct?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] malezlo22:
I do and instal rom restart rom boot and again please paasword android

I instal surdu petru rom 23.10.2016 instal ok everyfing works but twrp bootlop any upgrade to new rom only instal twrp skr tool and works sory byt my english not gut
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Unless gps is crucial I suggest that we go back an update.

I don't think the battery has any good of it, sadly
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Cube777:
Is there any diagnostics I can run to check the hardware for issues that you guys know of?
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
You'll notice it if anything is wrong.

Excessive heat over long time is dangerous. Cpu will slow down when it's too hot and phone will eventually shut off beyond that point.

I doubt it's broken yet, but to prolong the lifetime I suggest going back so we can avoid the heat production.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] mnv12345:
It seems that adaptive brighness does not work. Maybe only on my phone
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
No issue like this in my device P9-L09 ( EVA), and I used the original charger provided by Huawei.

But I have some issue , device become hot if I charge the device via USB .

Anyway if you have issue, just go back to previous update . Thanks !

I let yesterday my device to 57% battery and now is 45% ! Please take a look into my screenshot .

Edit :

Maybe your issue was because you used performance mode while charging ... didn't tested yet, but you should try to keep Balanced , or why not maybe you should to re-flesh the rom !
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Without the performance mode, the device would be quite laggy. So I just went back to the previous update until a new HWC is pulled into it. I contacted the HWC developer aswell regarding my issue and he would check up what might caused it :)

BTW: My light sensor was working well on the newest update too.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
Ok, I'll remove my last upade ... after my device also become hot, after the battery has reached 90% :confused:

Thank you for the warning :o

Yes, I know because I already tested it .
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] surdu_petru:
As the issue ( excessively hot device while charging ) was fixed, I'll remove the previous update post, and a new one will be here soon !

Thank you [MENTION=7129143]denNorske[/MENTION] for promptly :o

Sure was my fault , that's why I managed to fix it really quickly ... really don't know why I supposed that Honor 8 and Huawei P9 are identical ( as the issue started here ) !

Anyway , I'm sorry for inconvenience, and thanks once again for understanding !

Thanks a lot for being this fast - I'll download it and give it a try to see if it's better now ^_^ What did you do wrong?

I'm currently working on learning how android works, so would be nice to hear.

Already tested on my device, and after the battery has reached 100%, my device is almost as cold as ice :D

Edit :

You can see into my github, not yet pushed the modification ... but anyway was something related to kernel ( the new HWC has set a wrong value in kernel ).

List of the current releases

Release history and information (Continuously updated) :

October 18th, 2016: Information here

This was the initial release for EVA-L09 Device.

Notes:

Camera won't work properly, video playback fails. No GPS, a few other bugs.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

November 17th, 2016: Information here

Notes:

Most stable release in

my

opinion. Doesn't heat up, camera is usable and smoother performance than the 23/24.11.16 release. Camera works pretty okay, and there are battery profiles, glove mode. PS: Might be some Fingerprint issues (not confirmed)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

November 23rd/24th release: Information here

Notes:

New release with customized HWC implemented (read information). As it's new, it causes overall lag, heat and drains the battery faster than normal. I would recommend to wait for new update to sort those issues out. USB charging from a Computer USB causes excessive heat. GPS works in this release.

is the battery drain better now or only the heat thingy?

Thanks for your fast fix!

I experience battery drain and heat when plugged into a pc only :)
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] calz0:

heat problems only when connected to pc for me, installed pure stock and then twrp and then CM but still no fingerprint scanner. No idea why but not a big deal for sfos :)
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] venom04:
Same here, battery drain is much higher, only 1 day of use! With previous build 2-3 days! I go back to prev. version!

Anyway, good work, thank you!!
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
If it wasn't for the camera not 100% working at front facing, this would be stable enough for a release in my opinion. Can't find any other bugs on the 17.nov update huh
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] bahua78:
I've successfully flashed the 1117, 23, and 24 versions of this ROM, and I can confirm it works on the made-for-China EVA-AL10. I had to flash supersu along with gapps, which both are totally fine-- just some more zips to add to the flash --but I cannot figure out at all how to get the fingerprint function to work. A previous comment said to install a stock(EMUI) ROM, do a factory reset, and then do a TWRP wipe(using the TWRP version linked in the OP) without wiping system, and then to install the CM rom and gapps. I have made many attempts at this, and while CM works great, there has never been a fingerprint dialogue in the initial setup or in the lockscreen settings. Some help with this would be highly appreciated.
[Huawei P9 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] denNorske:
Worth noting is that OP only has the EVA-L09 version of the phone (supports the most LTE bands, global version) which means your model is practically unsupported. AL10 is strictly made for Chinese networks, and would assume hardware is slightly different. Could be a difference between those two phones causing the FPS to not work correctly for you.
