Has someone Project Treble-ized the Honor 8 (FRD-L09) like here? What is the latest Resurrection Remix for the phone? The one I have on my Honor 8 is this from [MENTION=2335078]surdu_petru[/MENTION] .. Latest update 2017.

---------- Post added at 09:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 PM ----------

Root + kernel adiutor? Fiddle around with the settings and the battery is better than on stock....

FRD-AL00 刷完之后 卡1不识别sim卡 卡2只有2G网络 请问怎么解决？
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] droidbot1337:
yeah, thanks for the help but i have already tried doing this. the problem is that once i replace the boot animation...... something weird happens. when i reboot the omni boot animation shows up for about 2 seconds, then it shows my animation.

as far as the sounds go, they all revert back to the stock ones. i dunno wtf is going on. i have tried looking for duplicates but i havent found any. all i want is to have my custom sounds. i dont understand why this is being so difficult! my entire experience with this phone sucks!

here said phone FRD-AL00 flashed ROM and get sim card 1 is not recognized,the sim card 2 only get 2G network,how to solve it
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] ScardracS:
Try to reflash it after a full wipe

[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] waihung0626:
it's samehere
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] droidbot1337:
LMFAO!!! damn, i know this device is essentially dead here and there will be no more ok releases but this thread is still worth popping in once and awhile.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] ScardracS:
That's why I've bought a Redmi Note 7 (I won't buy Huawei/Honor's products anymore)
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] pix106:
Same for me :)

If sources were released, I personally would still be using honor 8 with updated ROMs, but closed Kirin chose otherwise. I can't understand why people do closed source with Android, get iPhones then !
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] gilgamesh123:
when will there be a release of OmniROM Pie Alpha that fixes the LED issue? The LED only works for charging, not for apps.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] zinko_pt:
Development seems pretty much frozen since February. I don´t believe there will be any further updates but I wish I was wrong.

Time to dump Honor/Huawei and never buy another again.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] evilpaul13:
I bought an s10e. Spent more than I would have liked, but I've got this September's security update instead of last October's.

It's ashame that a phone that's still as capable as the Honor 8, that would be fine today with updated software, got **** support from its maker and some GPL-violating clowns are the closest thing it briefly managed to garner as a development community.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] droidbot1337:
congrats on the s10e! yeah, huawei really screwed over all of us but live and learn i guess! its too bad that xiaomi has no presence in the US. they produce great phones. im currently using a pixel 2 xl but the lack of expendable storage blows! im currently looking into the moto one zoom. i hope google soon realizes that ufs external storage is worth putting into their damn phones!
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] zinko_pt:
ahahahahah good luck with that

1 - This is a Honor 8 thread;

2 - OpenKirin is everything but open and supportive;

3 - Official support is crap, unless for the premium models, at least for a couple of years;

4 - Dump that phone and never touch another Huawei/Honor, not even with a 10 ft pole.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Clem09082000:
Hi guys ! Do you know if a RROS update will show up ? I am being bored of this WiFi network switch bug...
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] evilpaul13:
Open Kirin haven't bothered to say, but they're not supporting the Honor 8 anymore than they used to.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] OldDroid:
little update: i got myself a honor 8, and we're actively bringing back the legacy support, expect final releases with latest security patches for omni and rr in the near future.

Regards
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] ThePS4Gamer:
Do you and the other devs consider making an EMUI 8 vendor port of AOSP Android 10 after some security patches?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] OldDroid:
I won't make any promise, but thats the goal actually - including automated monthlies.

[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
Would be nice if you could optimize the battery life in treble roms. I had deep sleep issues which discharged my battery very quickly.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] hackslash:
Deep Sleep issues should be hopefully fixed in next builds.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] ThePS4Gamer:
Did anyone try out OmniROM Alpha 6? Did this build really fix Deep Sleep? Is the battery life comparable to EMUI 8 now?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
Test and you will know it. Mostly some cicles are needed to settle.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] thuryn:
I've installed it today and works really well. Thank you authors :)
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] ThePS4Gamer:
I'm having issues with setting up the ROM. If you plan to install the files, do NOT directly install it after you've wiped EMUI! Unlike the previous versions of the ROM, the initial setup just crashes after flashing it and giving a good old hard reset treatment to it. Only the upgrade option works.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
Same problem, here. Setupwizard force closes after first boot with wiping. Also no access to internal storage. If I download smth, it doesn't show in Files. Also try it with mix Explorer. Do you need any logs?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
If you can provide any then its good.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] maxpaynezm:
I have honor 8 emui 8.0 521, can i flash openkirin alpha 6.0 with classic installation or have too Setupwizard force closes?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] dkionline:
awaiting a fix, but have no logs.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] ThePS4Gamer:
I can replicate the issue, but what is the fastboot/ADB command that can capture logs?

Update: OK, now I know it; it's adb logcat. But what is the argument that tells the machine to save the logcat into a .txt file?

---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------

Until I can provide the devs logcats, your only option to do a clean install of OmniROM Pie Alpha 6 is to wipe EMUI and then flash the Alpha 5.2 files (this is very important). After flashing Alpha 5.2, go through the Setup Wizard and if you're on the home screen after the initial setup, please reboot the phone into fastboot mode, upgrade the ROM version via the technique of dirty flashing, reboot back into OmniROM and now you have a completely functional clean install of OmniROM Alpha 6.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] CrioNat:
I had installed time ago in my Honor 8 (alpha 5.2) and this got me problems of encryption. How can i solve?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
Deep Sleep is really fixed. Have a 5h3min SOT. The battery life is comparable to Stock.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] hackslash:
Glad to hear :)
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] gilgamesh123:
can you please please fix the led issue not working for app notifications? it seems to be effecting omnirom pie alpha for the latest release. :angel:
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] maxpaynezm:
And nfc fix
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
6.2 Preliminary notification LED support. It’s still a little broken but it works sometimes for some apps. You can configure color in Settings > Apps > Notification Settings. Look at https://openkirin.net/download/.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
Here are the logs for no access to internal storage.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] hackslash:
No access to internal storage? A little more explanation, what's the exact issue you're facing?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
Fixed by clean installation. ROM works great. Nice work ;)
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] gilgamesh123:
Was this led notification feature released a day after I downloaded 6.2 on 11/24?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] evilpaul13:
Seems like it
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
New bug detected. When I plug my earphone, the music doesn't play through the earphones. It plays over the loudspeaker. By enabling equalizer, it works. Here are the logs.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Clem09082000:
Hi all ! Any news concerning RR ?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] unknownqx:
Honor 8 FRD-L09 with OmniROM Pie Alpha 6.2. Deep sleep is not working for me. More precisely: sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't work. I've changed setting "Prevent phone from sleeping" permission for Google Play Services using AppOps. Although it is not clear how it should be set ("Allow" or "Deny") - I've tried both settings but as I said - deep sleep is only working sometimes. It seems to me that it stops working after battery charging.

NFC isn't working.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] MajorD.:
Any other user experiences for the new Alpha? How does it compare to stock Oreo in terms of battery life and overall performance?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] unknownqx:
Battery life was better on stock because deep sleep was always working properly. In alpha there is some kind of random - sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't work. As I said earlier, I think that it is somehow related to charging (connecting phone with USB cable to computer fixed it for me several times).

Aside from that (and NFC), the rom is fantastic. Maybe someone else will add something more.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] unknownqx:
Update: there is a little problem with bluetooth. I'm using my car's built-in hands-free set and sometimes the display is showing zero signal strength (which is not true). In such a situation making a call is still possible (despite on-board computer showing "no signal" warning).
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] MajorD.:
Alright, I will wait for the next version then as it's still my daily driver. Thanks for sharing your experience and thanks to the OpenKirin team for keeping the development alive :good:

I just got my father's honor 8 which is bought from dubai, ı think its middle east version. it has FRD-09C185B403 (EMUİ 5.0.4). Any chance to update to emui 8 (oreo). Ive searched alot but couldnt find this versions update file.

[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Elyth_:
On RROS actually, i only have 1 issue.

There is 2 camera app, the AOSP one and the Huawei one, but only one is working. The Huawei app was working fine for few hours but now it crashes instantly is there any known fix ?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] RayOfDoom:
I also experience that both camera apps stop working randomly after restart or few hours. I would like to go back to stock but have no idea how to do that. If someone can help how to go back to stock... Or if there is any fix for that camera problems
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] xsrvts:
i used huawei erecovery to get stock firmware, because i had terrible SOT on any openkirin rom
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Elyth_:
I managed to fix the camera issue by replacing the camera app in /system/priv-app/HwCamera2/ by Huawei's camera app for EMUI 8 (found it in apk mirror).

Rebooted my phone and now it works fine.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] RayOfDoom:
Can you please explain a bit, I also have stock recovery but all I can do with that is factory reset/cache. I tried dload but with every ROM but it won't start installation.

For that I suppose I have to have root but root options in developer options only allow ADB root?! And also both camera apps don't work and just crash, flashlight also doesn't work and every other camera app just gave "can't connect to camera" error
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] ScardracS:
You can use eRecovery now. It works correctly.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
I love that there is finally some more stable ROMs coming to our device now that we have Treble on it :)

For those who have installed a ROM on their Honor 8:

Does the Honor 8 have full smartkey suport? (The website only says click, but nothing about holding or duble clicking).
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] :
Oh wow, are there are even more gestures in RR? (Judging from the screenshot) :)
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] kewlpanda:
Any news on a full flashable rom
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] agraceful:
No, only treble roms now. Much easier for devs
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] zinko_pt:
After RR, which I prefer because of better looks and customization IMO, I'm using Omni now.

Had to install Nova launcher because default sucks a bit. Even with Omni native tweaks it's not enough.

If RR had NFC support, I would stay with it.

Overall smoothness is about the same, no visible differences.

Huawei camera lacks 3D and probably some other modes. Don't know why both RR and Omni come with 2 camera apps...
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] agraceful:
Two camera apps because people were having some issues so they left them in just in case. There won't be 3d since the h8 never had that. All other modes work perfectly. At least for me. RR will get nfc support soon enough as will LOS.

If you did find suitable ROM for your phone, you can update it.

It worked for me few days ago.

Install Hisuite on your PC and Phone

Install Firmware Finder

find ROM

download ROM

register ROM via FF to your phone

set DNS and proxy accroding to FF instructions.

Update via Hisuite.

have fun.

[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] maxpaynezm:
Its her still support for honor 8 or not? Nothing new update? Android 10 port?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] hackslash:
There'll be Android 9 updated builds with latest security patches and some bugs squashed in the coming weeks.

As far as Android 10 is concerned, I personally don't have any plans to switch to Q more or less because of my build machine hardware constraints and importantly the time it requires.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Shred00:
If OpenKirin were actually, well, Open, then somebody else with an interest could pick this up. But instead, OpenKirin is actually closed-source software (despite it's deceptive misuse of the word "open" in association with software) and as such, as with all nasty closed-source software, updates die when the maintainer's interest dies.

Long live open-source.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] karnasw:
Is there any bug report site?

There are few bugs that I reported on Telegram, but don't know is it written somewhere.

OmniROM Pie Alpha 6.2 (FRD-L19):

5GHz Hotspot not working

Cellural status icon shows cross on SIM which is used as default for mobile data (mobile data works, cross still exists), you can see that on screenshot, bug not exists on GSI ROMs or Ressurection Remix B3 OpenKirin

No LTE on second SIM slot (works on stock), don't work on every GSI ROM and OpenKirin ROM (developer already said it's hard to fix that without device with Dual SIM)

NFC not working out of the box, have to install magisk NFC fix

Any updates about the progress?

We will ever see a 9.0 Pie Final Release with 2020 security patches for our beloved Huawei P9?

Or the project is abandoned for EMUI 8.0 devices?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Shred00:
This thread is for the honor 8, not P9. You are looking for https://xdaforums.com/p9.

But that said, if this project were truly open, and not just being called open, but not really being open, anyone could build anything for any device instead of having to depend on the "inner circle".
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] hackslash:
LineageOS 16.0 was released with March 2020 security patches. You can check it out on OpenKirin website.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Shred00:
Awesome. Can you expand on what:

In-call mute and Bluetooth issues are still there. I didn’t have time to look at them due to some reasons. I wanted to get a new build done as soon as possible.

refer to? Is this just with the native mobile phone dialer or will it affect all phone apps including SIP/VOIP apps such as linphone-android?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] hackslash:
In call mute only affects native cellular calls. VOIP and other are not effected.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Shred00:
Is that the same for whatever the mentioned Bluetooth issues are also? Only affecting the native dialer?

And that's the Lineage native dialer? What about other dialers like the Google one @ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer&hl=en_CA?
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] hackslash:
1. Bluetooth issues are specific to Kirin 7xx chipsets. No problems on Kirin 950/955 as far as testing goes.

2. All cellular calls regardless of the dialer you're using.

i got a few GSIs to boot but i reverted to omni last time i played with my honor 8. i havent used it since i got a ph-1 but ill check and see if i can boot ArrowOS. the only problem i ran with GSIs was they either didnt boot or didnt have gapps pre-installed. without a working twrp, thats a huge issue!
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] droidbot1337:
hmmm...... interesting. ill check it our when i have some time. probably tomorrow. if anything ill boot it up to make sure it still works since the last time i used it it was to unbrick it. ill see if i can boot LOS 17 gsi since i was able to boot the 16 gsi. i have switched ROMs so much on my ph-1...... its amazing!! i settled on ArrowOS. i really cant imagine going back to a device that doesnt give me a choice. i hope everyone finds better devices. cheers!
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] player18:
I'm testing the latest LineageOS build on my (now retired) Honor 8: great work!

One bug I found is with the fingerprint sensor: it works fine when unlocking the device, but gestures don't seem to work as intended (the option to enable the notification menu on swipe is enabled).

Swiping results in Google Now being opened and every time I swipe a = character is entered in the search bar. In menus it goes from one row to the next, while the desired behaviour would be to open the notification bar like it happens in the stock ROM. Clicking on the fingerprint sensor opens Google now as well, I didn't find an option to customize this behaviour.

The changelog seems to point at the issue being resolved in the latest build, so I thought I'd report it is not - unfortunately.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] maxpaynezm:
This is fix. If you want a workaround backup the fingerprint.kl file in /vendor/usr/keylayout then delete it and reboot the device
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] player18:
That did not work. Still bringing up google search.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] maxpaynezm:
Have you root? Thats works 100%, delete the file, restart device and do not copy back, only delete
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] player18:
Yes, I am rooted. I believe I did that and it did not work, however I just noticed I keep getting "read-only filesystem" when I they to delete the file using either termux or a file manager. Both have been granted root permission.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] Clem09082000:
My file manager told me to remount the system on read/write and it works, I could delete it and reboot. I use Material Files, you can find it on F-Droid.
[Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Develop] player18:
Thanks for the suggestion, Material Files worked great! Not sure why xterm or the other file manager I was using would say the filesystem was mounted as root, but really not keep the setting. Swiping works now.
