Awesome ROM! Works really well. The only problems I'm having are that Footej Camera sometimes crashes and Google Lens doesn't work at all. Google completely crashes when I try to open Google Lens. I've tried resetting it.

Thanks, man! But please, work on a good AOSP based custom ROM. It works better with Substratum and makes sure force kill and nav bar and status bar customization and ADB over Wi-Fi are there.

Hi [MENTION=7019289]DarkJoker360[/MENTION],

Could you please add the above information to the first post in the update section?

Nobody ever knows where the zip gets copied to.

Thanks a bunch mate.

Cheers

PS: Too bad to see you step aside this project... Just wished you (or somebody else here) could somehow automate a monthly OTA just with google's monthly security updates for as long as google/lineage keep N/14.1 up to date regarding security.
[P8lite Android Development] tralph3:
Too bad to see the updates stop, but still a big thank you for giving maintaining the ROM for this long, even after all other devs have moved on. I can confirm that the problem with Xposed, present in the previous update, which caused the SystemUI to crash when installing it has been fixed in this update, so I can use it again. Take care.

Mine keeps crashing
[P8lite Android Development] daniyal.javani:
GPS doesn't work and can't find any satellite with this new update, but I have a hi6250 device and this rom is not supposed to work on it.

Any same problem?
[P8lite Android Development] tralph3:
GPS doesn't work either on my ALE-L23, it's normal, and I acually prefer it that way, nobody can know where I am lol.

I'm afraid the instagram issue is not related to the ROM

Hi, I installed the last version "lineage-14.1-20201029-UNOFFICIAL-alice.zip" in my ALE-L23 and I´ve two issues:

1. When I started a video call in WhatsApp, any one in any phone see me black and white; In my ALE-L23 I see me and the other person colorfull, but they not, I tested call familiars and friends with differents phones but result is the same, on the other hand If I start a video call in Messenger, they see me colorfull

2. Bluetooth not working

Help me :((
[P8lite Android Development] sKuF:
I think both issues are from older versions. There's no fix that I know.
[P8lite Android Development] daniyal.javani:
Can't you still play Instagram lives? it's annoying!
[P8lite Android Development] sKuF:
I think the only way to do it is flashing another rom
[P8lite Android Development] HugoAlonso:
On ALE-L21 bluetooth does work , but not on all devices, and sometimes it chrashes.

for instance Mi fit with Mi Smart Band 5 says it needs Bluetooth 4.0 or above, but on another phone with original Miui the smart band shows on the found devices list, and the phone has BT 4.0

Whatsapp, someone said it has to do with google gaps, not sure what is the problem as I was not able to make it work, I never got an answer on that.

Hi, I have created this other post https://xdaforums.com/t/p8-lite-alice-l23-2015-keeps-random-rebooting.4221153/

My idea was to use EMUI 4.1 as a daily, but I missed something?

What I did was to flash with TWRP B896 over Lineage 14.1, previous format and wipe

Did I have to go back to android 5 then android 6 with EMUI 4.0 and then flash B896?

hi, I installed 7.1.2 on my P8 lite ALE L21 and then wanted to rollback into the stock rom.

unfortunately all my efforts to flash with dlod folder (update.app B170, B560, B575 ) and fastboot mod (with extracted boot.img, recovery.img ,... from HuaweiUpdateExtractor) weren't successful!

I think I miss some steps, could anyone please write the step by step procedure to back to stock?

indeed I've still have twrp recovery on my device.

[P8lite Android Development] davidkejzlar:
Not sure if official Huawei update (dload folder) works in LOS. It is possible to flash official Huawei ROM (update.zip) from TWRP.

I did it this way last time when reverting to stock ROM with no problems. Rolling back this way will replace TWRP with stock recovery and probably also lock bootloader (mine was locked during this procedure).
[P8lite Android Development] masemoel:
Try the B896 TWRP-flashable zip from the OP.
[P8lite Android Development] motaleby:
Thank you very much, and would you please tell about "OP"? I don't know where I could download flashable zip file of the stock rom.

Or is there any way to convert .APP to .zip?
[P8lite Android Development] masemoel:
OP means original post (the one from DarkJoker where you find all download links). Either in that post or just below, in the second one.

B896 is already flashable in TWRP
[P8lite Android Development] motaleby:
Thank you, I installed the B896 successfully. But why i can't install another version by dload folder now? the B896 Sound option is deactivated and couldn't be changed.

by the way my phone is unlock.

Which kernel did you took? Seems source issue...

Ensure you synced DarkJoker's Nougat branch from his kernel repo
[P8lite Android Development] _MartyMan_:
repo sync, then local manifests alice.xml <-- edited as in the readme

Then repo synced again, and did the alice patcher thing and the whole process went without an error

EDIT: Now when making prebuilts it says that

Kernel source found, but no configuration was defined * vendor/cm/build/tasks/kernel.mk:188: * Please add the TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG variable to your * vendor/cm/build/tasks/kernel.mk:189: * BoardConfig.mk file

As far as i can tell, i should change something in BoardConfig.mk, but TARGET_KERNEL_CONFIG is present, and also set to alice_defconfig... What should i do?

EDIT2: Okay big facepalm, successful build with brunch...

I'm building LOS 14.1, as well as 15.1 for alice. I'm not a real dev so don't expect too much.

Download:

Android File Host (every LOS 14.1 build)

Google Drive (latest LOS 14.1 build only)

The latest update cannot be installed with OrangeFox so i assume TWRP won't work either. If you have such issues, use this recovery.

@_MartyMan_,

Did you manage to use p2p mode?

I'm trying to use Cast functionality and after modding build.prop still no success.

Precisely i've done following checks on the device:

1. Device supports P2P mode:

alice:/ # iw phy
...
Supported interface modes:
* managed
* AP
* P2P-client
* P2P-GO
...

2. There are no p2p0 interface and attempting to create one will fail:

alice:/ # iw dev wlan0 interface add p2p0 type managed
command failed: Operation not supported on transport endpoint (-95)

3. There seems to be another service (p2p_supplicant in init.hi6210sft.rc) but fails to run (disabled?)

4. using following wpa_supplicant command line with no succes:

service wpa_supplicant /system/bin/wpa_supplicant -d \
-iwlan0 -Dnl80211 -c/data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf \
-I/system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant_overlay.conf \
-O/data/misc/wifi/sockets \
-m/data/misc/wifi/p2p_supplicant.conf \
-puse_p2p_group_interface=1 \
-e/data/misc/wifi/entropy.bin -g@android:wpa_wlan0

5. Using wpa_supplicant options like (p2p_no_group_iface=1) has no effect on the process.

Fail case:

# wpa_cli
...
> p2p_find
FAIL

I've also tried LG TV Screen Sharing which is using miracast as usual.

Anyway, Could you please comment on this? although driver and chipset supports p2p but there seem to be an issue in adding p2p0 interface and using WiFi-Direct functionality.

Thank you,

It is always dangerous when set to permissive. It should never be done unless you want to play around and know what you are doing. These kind of roms are not for the daily use for the general public like this.

Have the same problem, do not know enough how to enable it but check this out.
[P8lite Android Development] razorfancy:
I asked to @DarkJoker360 why selinux is on permissive mode and he told me that if you change selinux to Enforcing mode it will cause the ROM to bootloop.

So if you want to use selinux in Enforcing mode you should stay with Stock ROM.
[P8lite Android Development] B3rtm3n:
Choosing stock rom with se linux enabled which is no longer supported and has not had any security patches for past few years or using a custom rom like this one with security patches but with se linux set to permissive is like having to chooese between the plaque or the cholera.

I do not trust any banking apps and such to be safe on neither systems so no problem for me.

[P8lite Android Development] Tiki Thorsen:
I am new to Huawei phones (i have a P8lite on a bootloop) and not sure where to start. Any chance of a more in depth guide for beginners?
[P8lite Android Development] _MartyMan_:
(If you are in a bootloop, try to boot into recovery and wipe the phone.)

1. If your bootloader is locked, unlock it. Here is how to do it.

2. After that, in bootloader mode, install TWRP recovery (this is by @Thespartann) with command

fastboot flash recovery filename.img

3. Flash b896_update.zip

4. In recovery do a full wipe (i recommend formatting internal storage too)

5. Download latest LOS build, then GApps (if you want) - ARM64, 7.1, and i recommend pico

6. Flash in this order: LOS, GApps (Then Magisk if you want root)

7. Enjoy
[P8lite Android Development] Tiki Thorsen:
Edit: Thanks for the guide. I manage to reinstall android and unblock the bootloader.

Hi guys,

running well LOS 14 on my P8 ale l21

just, how could I disable second sim card? I have two sim, my main one everyday, and another one with a usage of just 2 days per week for a specific activity. Don't want to get it connected to the network the rest of the time, and I don't want to put it off the device each time.

how could I disable it temporarly in LOS, withoutu disabling the main one?

btw, do you know how to allow photo recorder access on lock screen without pin code?

>>>Video recording with stock camera: use footej camera instead

I didn't like the idea of paying for JUST video recording. I went on a hunt and found this opensource app (Simple Camera) that records.

Simple Camera - Contains no unnecessary functions | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository

A camera with flash, zoom and no ads.

f-droid.org

Caveats: It seems to record in 720p and no settings to change that. Also, it might not orient the video correctly... seems to expect portrait shots.

P.S. If any developer out there wants to enhance this app... Thanks in advance

Thanks a bunch for your work on this ROM.

Can you please clarify if we will be receiving any future updates? We surely can't update via OTA, right?

And apparently all is working except for the camera, particularly the video part, right? I guess I'm ok with Footej but I was wondering on what Footej has that no other camera app has, right? Because everybody advises Footej and I must have tested half a dozen other camera apps that also didn't work. Could you please enlighten me?

Thanks a bunch.

[P8lite Android Development] john3voltas:
Got it. That's not a problem, I'll install Footej as advised here.

But could you (please ;)) answer my other questions?

Like, are there going to be regular updates with newer patches? If so, will we receive them via OTA or will we download from here and copy to the sdcard in order to install those.

And the one that intrigues me the most: why Footej works and other's like for instance OpenCamera don't?

EDIT: I'll explain why I'm asking. It's because I'd be ok losing some of Footej functionality and moving into an app with less features but that wouldn't stop recording at 5 minutes. ;)

Thanks mate.
