hi new here on a huawei nova (can-l11, before s2, s4 mini, z1 compact).

i would highly prefer to use resurrecrion rom agains stock lineageOS. tried serveral times but i can't get RR working. lineageos build boots up reliable but RR (if it boots) just time. all >1 tries to restart fails for me.

for all who can use this rom: is the hotlug logic working here? for the latest lineageOS build all cores stay online independent which load and governor.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Did you wipe system, data, cache and dalvik-cache in TWRP recovery before flashing RR? Ive tried RR myself and i didnt had such issue.

The kernel doesnt have any hotplug yet and i dont know if i will add hotplugs. The cores stays online on stock EMUI as well.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GNUDroid:
so why not? i mean even on 2 (s2) and 4 core (z1c) phones hotplugging allows easily extend battery time about 1/4 till 1/3(!) on static content. like reading mails or news pages on lower display brightness on the way home. there is almost no degrade in performance and hotplug patches are almost standard. easy and highest potential for battery without affecting the performance. but just a suggestion.

I will try rr on the next build again. but yes I wiped everything. interestingly sometimes it booted. if such an lucky install, the next time failed. a intermediate clean of cache and dalvic helped. but that's a pain since the long time of app optimization, e.g. compiling via art.

but again: thank you! so happy that you provide custom roms for us on this lovely phone
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
I'm not a fan of hotpluggage, but it should be possible to, at least, hotplug big cores, as it is not needed to stay awake all the time where LITTLE could the work. If you could add it to your kernel, I know it would be a great addition.

I didn't try it yet (i have a caz-tl10 device, not can) and maybe I'll try it next week, when I have the time. When I do, I report here.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
I guess I'll give a shot to hotplugs.

I'll wait for your feedback regarding your Nova's model. Thank you!

I've stated at notes in first post:

You've flashed LOS SU after you've flashed RR?

As far as I remember, RR comes with SuperSU by default (there should be Settings > SuperSU). I don't remember properly which root it has, as I haven't used RR at all, just tested it a bit.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GNUDroid:
regarding supersu: sorry wrong thread: i wanted to post at lineageOS 13
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] icutzo:
That is my thought as well, if your wipe it should not make any difference what version you previously had

BTW Sk8buoy i'm also on MLA-L03 from videotron but i upgraded my phone to Nougat using Rogers MLA-L03C578B335
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Is it usable on a daily basis with CAN-L11?

I'm on Nougat, I have to downgrade to Android 6.0 and then do everything?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
In my opinion, its okay for daily use.

And no, you dont have to downgrade. I just flashed LOS 13 back from Nougat last night and there wasnt any problem.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
You didn't even wipe data?

There are nothing wrong except the fm radio and NFC?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Wiping system, data, cache and dalvik cache is a must when flashing a new rom.

There are still few problems, but i didnt edit the post of the bugs list yet. Im sorry for that.

I dont think there is any other problem other than those. At least i didnt encounter other problems and there werent other reports from people neither.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Thank you for your answer, I'll take a look at that! Thanx for your work
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
[MENTION=4806022]Henkate[/MENTION] man, I got error 7 when installing RR because my device is "generic_a53" named by TWRP. I think this could be a problem for others too, maybe you should include others product builds. I solved it by commenting out your updater-script first line.

Then I got this error "system partition has unexpected contents after OTA update" and couldn't continue it either.

I tried LOS and got the same error as above.

I already looked into recovery.log and this message is the only error it returns.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
You have to flash the TWRP by Grarak mentioned at requirements.

Ive never heard of this error. Did you wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache before flashing the rom?

PS: Its [MENTION=4471434]#Henkate[/MENTION].
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
I'll try his TWRP =P

about the wipes, yeah. I always do full wipe
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Let me know if the problem still persists.

Also, if by any chance you cant mount /data in TWRP, then go to wipe > format data and type "yes" (thats the correct path as far as i remember). But backup all your stuff from internal memory before doing this as it will be wiped.

PS: It seems that some hater rated my threads 1 star, lol.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
After flashing garak's TWRP it went smoothly. His TWRP is must for sure!

About the /data format, I had already done that. I was on nougat and my /data partition couldn't be mounted because of encryption so I had to format it. Well RR is booting right as I write this. Later I'll try too flash superSU and grab the recovery.log for you.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Here it is recovery.log after trying to flash superSU.zip
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Im sorry for late reply,

It looks like its failing to create the directories, so the files needed for patching doesnt get placed and so it fails patching.

mkdir: can't create directory '/su/bin': Read-only file system

mkdir: can't create directory '/su/xbin': Read-only file system

mkdir: can't create directory '/su/lib': Read-only file system

mkdir: can't create directory '/su/etc': Read-only file system

mkdir: can't create directory '/su/su.d': Read-only file system

The SuperSU`s script looks like this:

ui_print "- Creating paths"

[B][COLOR="Red"]ch_con /su[/COLOR][/B]

mkdir /su/bin
set_perm 0 0 0751 /su/bin
mkdir /su/xbin
set_perm 0 0 0755 /su/xbin
mkdir /su/lib
set_perm 0 0 0755 /su/lib
mkdir /su/etc
set_perm 0 0 0755 /su/etc
mkdir /su/su.d
set_perm 0 0 0700 /su/su.d

The function called ch_con is this:

ch_con() {
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SYSTEMLIB /system/bin/toybox chcon -h u:object_r:system_file:s0 $1 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$SYSTEMLIB /system/toolbox chcon -h u:object_r:system_file:s0 $1 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null

chcon u:object_r:system_file:s0 $1 1>/dev/null 2>/dev/null
}

1) Can you try to create a new folder in / while you are in recovery to see whether you can create it or not?

2) Did you check if there is Settings > SuperSU? I dont remember properly, but i think RR might come with SuperSU already.

PS: im limited to thanks button...
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Don't worry, I'm restoring my files, apps and data.

1 - Yes, I could create a new folder in my root directory. I tried to flash superSU again, but it fails. From the pipe messages, it fails when extracting ramdisk (when it starts the process to patch boot image). I really think that it might be related to kernel compression method.

2 - There is no menu for superSU although there is a superuser manager (LOS). I would like to user chainfire's superSU as it has better compatibility with apps, but for now, I didn't have a problem with the one built-in. I tried to use phh superuser too and it get successfully flashed, but the the device doesn't boot (RR logo bootloop).
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
After a bit of testing, I'm having problems to access the main camera (maybe because my device is caz?.The rest are working fine
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
It force closes?

Some people reported that the camera force closes for them, while for me and others it doesn't.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] wangdaning:
Vinnom, you have the Chinese model right? I have the AL10, all working for me.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Yes, it does fc :/

Hmm mine is TL10, but it shouldn't be any difference. I'm trying to install huawei camera to see if it works (and would great, because it is a good camera app lol)

I'll make some tests with other apps and see if some of them works
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Well, I couldn't use my main camera with any app I tried. I couldn't install stock camera either, but I'm still trying. I'll grab a logcat to see if anyone can help me solve this. Other thing, RR keeps bootlooping for some time and then it boots. Everytime I reboot, takes 10+ minutes to boot properly =/ I already tried LOS and it boots fine (camera still a problem, though =/)

EDIT:

Here it is a logcat with the error when trying to open the built-in camera app and huawei camera app (I could finally install it). Any ideas, anyone? I tried to read it but I don't understand much =/ it seems lib issues =P
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] wangdaning:
So odd, my al10 is fine. Camera has bugs, but same with dev.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Alan_qiao:
Hi man. I got the same problem with you. But when I tried garak's recovery, the touch function didn't work in his twrp. Did you meet the same problem or do you have any idea to solve it? My device is caz
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
I didn't have any problem with that, no. Neither with xelfmade's twrp or grarak's. Idk, maybe try to download it again and flash one more time?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GNUDroid:
same for me.

maybe a specific device problem? for me on l11 grakak's twrp works fine.

except: time and date is wrong (i knew this problem from my recent sony z1c. was the same until the dev implemented timekeeper-service). but a minor.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
We can't use the photo app if it's installed on can L11?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
What do you mean exactly?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
I've seen that some people had FC with the camera, I wondered if it was with can l11
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Nosphar:
It works on MLA-L03 MM. Not sure about Nougat tho
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GNUDroid:
i almost exclusivly use "open camera" (just like it so much!). works fine on l11!
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
It seems like the LOS rom on Nougat has more bugs than this one.

Does someone tried to flash it from a can L11 on Nougat? (B350)
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
I've just flashed the rom and the camera works well but the LTE connection seems to be not working, what did you do to make it work ?

EDIT1 : After configuring the Adaway app, reboot and now it just bootloop.... It stops at "Launching applications"

EDIT2 : I wiped Data 3 times and the last time I did, I tried to reboot the phone before doing anything (at the language part) and it stops at "launching applications" all the time
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Let it alone bootlooping and see if after some time it boots. It was like that for me. Bootlooped a few times and after 10+ minutes, it was working again.

My LTE connection was fine from the beggining.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Thank you for your answer. As you can see, i added something to the last post and the problem during the boot is there all the time, but i didn't tried to let it boot for so much time.

I'm doing it right now, waiting to see if it works, hope so !

For the LTE problem, I couldn't do some tests for now because of the boot problem. I've seen that there are many options of connectivity in the settings (CDMA/LTE, LTE...etc) so the problem may be there.

EDIT : After less than 10 minutes, the phone finally boot ! I'm trying to condigure the adaway app and then reboot again, we'll see

EDIT2 : It seems like any reboot is a bit long. I verified thé APN and it's good . when its only 3G or only Edge ,its working. Do you have any idea ? It's really annoying
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Well, I didn't have any FC with camera on my CAN-L11, except the one regarding HDR mode which I've mentioned some time ago.

You should be able to flash from Nougat as well. I've tried with my CAN-L11.

This ROM is using the same sources as LOS, so it has the same bugs.

What bugs you've encountered when you've flashed LOS on Nougat?

I've flashed a new (test) build of LOS13 on my Nova from Nougat B350 and I've encountered a problem with videos. Basically I wasn't able to play videos taken with camera and neither videos which already were there (if I remember properly). I don't remember if this issue was present in the actual build of LOS13 (which is published).

I didn't have any issues with LTE. It worked "out of the box".
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
I can confirm that there is no problem flashing this rom from Nougat.

Plus, i never had any FC on the camera app.

I didn't try LOS, but I read messages that are posted on the los thread.

My problem is the LTE, can you send me your data settings?

Sometime the 4G label appears but for a second only... If I don't put 3G only or Edge only mode, I've no data 99,99% if time.

If I can fix that problem, it would be really cool because the rom is smooth ?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
For me, data connection worked out of the box too.

Regarding the boot issue, it also happened all the time for me.

LOS lagged for me a bit, RR build was a lot smoother, but a I had to come back to emui build because camera FC for me :(
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Crap, I can't find why 4G isn't working... Which setting do you use to filter networks?

For me, only the "WCDMA only" works well and provide 3G.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
The stock settings. I never mess with this things hahaha
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Well well well...

Sometimes, the 4G connects for 10-30 seconds and disconnect after, for no reason.

When i dial "*#*#4636#*#*" -> Phone information -> Choose band -> I only have Automatic, EURO Band (GSM-900/DCS-1800/WCDMA-IMT-2000) and USA Band (GSM-850/PCS-1900/WCDMA-850/WCDMA-PCS-1900)

It's really boring because i have to be in 3G only mode to have internet and as soon as I put Auto mode, it seems to be trying to connect 4G but almost never work...

When i'm on 3G, the network icon is empty, like it's not working but it works.

EDIT : I use my phone a lot while i'm working and I can't keep it that way. Can you tell me how can i flash back EMUI rom ?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
There was a twrp backup from emui 4.1 from bluesmoothie. Find it and restore in your phone then you are ready to go
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Thank you dude

Are you talking about this link : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qrk0fbpn5rnukxn/AAAmhFwBTNoqq0sWfCH-VMHLa?dl=0 ?

Which file do i have to take (recoveryxw_twrp3.0.2_for_nova.img ?) ? And what do I have to do with it ?

I juste put it on sdcard and flash it through TWRP ?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
What you need is the content inside TWRP folder. After putting it under your own twrp folder, you boot into twrp and restore.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] GNUDroid:
concerning the LTE/G4 and G3 discussion I have an similar bug in LOS. can not test LTE (not in my contract) but with G3 the ROM (notification bar + battery overview) show no signal all the time.

But G3 works for me + apps show the actual receiption.

the bands (euro/USA) show up like in the post of iSpeeX. my baseband is 00038. I'm located in Germany.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Okay, thank you very much, it's kind of you
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
I copied the entire folder (BACKUPS -> FPFDU16930014596..etc) and all the files but TWRP doesnt find it. Do you know why ?

Sorry for bothering you again haha
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Boot into your twrp and backup your own boot partition, for example. Twrp will create the folder structure you should follow.

But I suggest you to look in xda about twrp backup&restore. When we mess with rom and mods and things alike, twrp knowledge is what will save you a lot of times. It is really a must to know.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
I tried to flash the backup but it doesnt work, the boot never finish (let it go for 30-40 minutes)... and i can't access my ext sdcard anymore where the RR rom is located....

I found this steps :

re-unlocked bootloader

flashed twrp with fastboot flash recovery twrp_huawei_generic_a53_YYYYMMDD.img

copied all the dropbox files to /external_sd/TWRP/BACKUPS/FPFDU16930014596/1970-03-18--16-40-58_CANC432B100/...

wipe all partitions except sd-card

recover the complete backup

Do you think that I should wipe EVERYTHING and then try to flash the backup again ?

But i put the files of the backup on the internal sdcard and not external, will it wipe theses files too ?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Try to use the twrp mentioned in the OP of this thread.

I told you to backup at least your own boot so twrp will create the folder structure it needs to find backups, then you just have to compare with the one you downloaded and see where you need to adapt for your personal use.

Again, twrp knowledge is a must when messing with the kind of stuff you're messing. Please read the foruns about how to use it.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
But it's the one i use, that's why i'm surprised.

I already used TWRP before, but it's the first time with a Huawei Device and it's really different...

I did create the folder structure by a backup of my boot, then i was able to flash the backup of bluesmoothie. I did it, but the boot never finish.

One guy said to me that i would need to relock the bootloader and flash the "update.app" to return to the factory rom, but i don't know where to find these files.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
After restoring that backup, try to do a factory reset in TWRP. Simply go in TWRP > Wipe and swipe to wipe. Then reboot.

I didn't have any problems while restoring bluesmoothie's backup and I've did that many times already.

If you have further questions/problems regarding this, please make a thread at our Q&A section as this thread is getting cluttered with this :p.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] iSpeeX:
Well, i'll try to do that !

Yeah you're right, i'm really sorry guys. I made my own thread. Thank you for everything guys :good:
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cowdy:
Soooo... No any progress in updates? Dude, would be great if you could fix NFC.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Fixed NFC

NFC is now working.

The NFC configs were named like this: libnfc_brcm_can.conf and libnfc_nxp_can.conf and I just had to rename them to libnfc-brcm.conf and libnfc-nxp.conf lol.

After I've did this, I've got rid of the error. When I was trying beam with my old phone and to read my bank credit card with some app it wasn't working. Then I've tried again and placed the card on top and it worked lmao. That's where the NFC chip is located I guess.

So, it could read my credit card and I've also sent a file from my old phone to Nova through Android Beam. That means that NFC is working. I don't have any NFC tag to test though, but I guess it'll work as well.

As I've said, there won't be a new build for RR and neither LOS unless I fix the video recording / playback issues.

Once those gets fixed, I'll update both ROMs and then I'm planning to build Slim6 as well.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Great, man!

Do you have any intention to build nougat for us? Huawei released the source :D

Anyway, about this ROM, did you take a look in the logcat I sent you about the camera not working for me (no one sent logcats, but I suppose that the others who can't open the camera have the same issue)? I'm not using RR LOS because of camera issue (the long bootloop then boot also bothers me - just RR, LOS was booting normally).
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
I'd like to build Nougat too, but not unless LOS13's bugs are fixed. Also huawei didn't release the source for CAN-L01 / L11. I see that there's only for AL10 / TL10.

I've asked Huawei for Nougat source code (L11) two times and got the same answer... Then I've gave up on that.

I've took a look at the logcat some time ago (probably when you've shared it), but I haven't spent time for that. I'll look at it again before publishing a new update and I'll see what I can do.

By the way, the new update will have Snap camera. The camera quality is improved with Snap compared to AOSP camera where I could barely see something in evening (indoor) since it was so dark. With Snap it is not dark, but when recording videos (evening, indoor) it is.

Maybe you won't have any force close with Snap? Dunno :p.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
I still can't figure out what is wrong or how to fix that... It seems that videos recorded with 1080p resolution doesn't gets stuck when you play them unlike the ones recorded at 4k which gets stuck. Can you confirm this?

I'm starting to get tired of this.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
NEW UPDATE [12.08.2017]

The downloads links are in first post.

The links of device and vendor tree has been updated.

CHANGELOG:
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cooks_08:
Gave this a shot on my MLA-03. Was looking for dual sims and didn't recognize my sim. I may pull your trees later and look at the overlays. the rom booted and a lot of it was functional, just no calls/emails. May have to tweak the device tree a bit for the nova plus.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Delta wolf:
if you do that I will be very interested as I'm an mla l03 user myself
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Delta wolf:
how long did boot up take? I don't have a /cust (wich isint an issue for normal emui is that an issue here if so do you have a cust backup (or can you make one) that I can snag off you ?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Cooks_08:
More than likely it's gapps causing that. When i flashed gapps i had same problem. I went back to stock because it's still not stable enough for DD.

You can try to wipe and reflash the rom if you want to play around with it. Do it without gapps. see if it boots. then try gapps. Maybe try another set.
