[WIP] KERNEL Huawei Y6 for Android 7 - Huawei Y6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel

Hey community.
We started to work at a android 7 kernel for the Huawei Y6 today.
This is a really early state and there is a lot of stuff that needs to be merged.
It is based at the latest msm8909 codaurora source for android 7.
Every help is welcome.
Follow us at: https://github.com/Runner85sx/android_kernel_huawei_msm8909/tree/cm-14.0
Maybe you could add requests that could be merged too.
Have a nice day.
EDIT: DISCONTINUED for now.

Wow, nice to see this is slowly/fast becoming reality!
Time will tell
So, did Huawei answer your mail? :d

No they did not. The last stand is that they won't release the source. So i started to use a new caf msm8909 kernel and started to add all the huawei stuff manually.
EDIT 2: I started to find all files and entries with huawei_ and hw_ inside the working cm12.1 kernel and started to add them to the android 7 kernel. It is a lot of copy and paste and also a lot of text editing.
EDIT 3: It seems to be easier to add the missing content from android 7 to a working huawei kernel.
But i need a break for some time. I had an accident so i first need my health back.

[DEV] [WIP] Unofficial CM13 for the p880

Hey guys
In memory of a very dear friend who passed away yesterday, I am starting this thread and a new era for our x3.
CM has pushed their CM13 branches yesterday, which means it's time for a new project. This time, though, I will be all by myself.
Please do not expect any miracles soon, as the M sources still need to settle a bit before we can even hope for a halfway working build.
Once again, you have several ways to get in touch with me/us:
You can use this thread (but keep it development related)
We have our own IRC channel on freenode, called #p880-dev
Use our github site
PM (even though the other ways are preferable)
We are of course still open source, and you can find the repos on our github:
Device tree
Kernel
Blobs
Any help is greatly appreciated, be it pre-alpha testing, or helping with actual development and fixing bugs. Feel free to make a pull request on github, which we will most likely merge happily. If you're not that experienced in git, feel free to contact me about it.
If you want to use this sources/ROM as your base, you sure are allowed to, but please let me/us know about it before you release it and give proper credits.
That's all we're asking for.
I know you want to know the actual Status, so I try to always keep it updated in this OP:
Not working:
Most likely everything
Working:
Most likely nothing ​
Now, the most important part:
If you like our work and all the time we spent in order to get it working, feel free to buy us a coke/beer/whatever by donating a litte bit
Special thanks go to: (names in no particular order)

A quick update, CM's sources are still not compilable as they are still working on the initial bringup.
I will stay on it and see what I can do
I will pay you, just please make final ROM for 4X, with everything working as it shoud be! That would be awesome!

I will pay you too. I would like when I will be to have the final ROM fo 4x. Thanks
Make it working relibly and responsively, and I will pay you too. You deserve it!
I don't mind if it takes months to achieve it. Just make it at some point, and I'll be happy!
Can't wait !!!

that's a CM issue and needs their fixing. Hence I did not look into it, because if I go on do my "fix" it will most likely differ from CM's fix and may then cause some later issues.
So I'm currently waiting for CM to fix it
Some days ago is builded a cm13 ZIP, but it doesnt even pass bootloader.
Here are my commits for device tree. I disabled most likely everthong what causes building errors like Audio and CameraWrapper.
Here are my commits https://github.com/lenzwagner/android_device_lge_p880/commits/cm-13.0
@laufersteppenwolf will be on IRC the next evenings. Hope you'll be there too.

@fritzcola, just got home from work, gonna check out those commits now. Thanks for posting them. ffmpeg has been a pain for me this past week trying to compile CM13 :-/. Gotta love a fresh brunch out the kitchen lol.

Just run "make clean" and "repo sync". Commits are already merged in source apart from one.
@laufersteppenwolf Can you upload the fixes to a " cm-13.0" branch?
And do you already go further than BL?

Yea, just verified I already have them in the source. Stagefright still being an issue. Need to look at gerrit and see if there is a commit on standby that may resolve my problem. codecs_utils.cpp fails to compile over at external/stagefright-plugins/utils/.

No sir I am not. For another device, forgive me if that caused any confusion. My initial post on here was with regards to ffmpeg. A hunt for an unofficial build on xda brought up a few links and so wanted to make contact with the dev(s) to see if they had the same problem and/or fix so I may compare and possibly adapt if applicable my previous outcome. As for my current issue I do not expect any answer or results from here since its completely off topic from this device. I merely shared it in response with no intention or expectations for a solution. . I did take a look at your repo and saw ffmpeg is obsolete so I removed it from my tree as well since it was most definitely causing my builds to break.

[ROM] CyanogenMod 13.0 has arrived!

Hi, I'll try to keep it short, between yesterday and today, I have been researching CM13, I thought it was a really hard project, but the results look promising so far, I am not ready to release anything at the moment, but I'll let you see some screenshots. This is just a side project, and I'll keep working on AOSP. I'll update this post whenever I feel like the ROM is kind of finished.
PS: This is Android 6.0.1, EMUI is just on 6.0.0 Isn't that exciting?

PS2: No PMs about this please, you'll have it as soon as it's finished
CM 13 For HUAWEI P8 Lite?
I solve art/runtime error
wow this is great,i wish you all the best in these projects !
When will be this finished? I can't wait!??❤
Sent from my ALE-L21 using XDA-Developers mobile app
just wondering something, how much space uses system from CM13 and AOSP? for example, on stock Huawei roms almost always they use 2GB+
EDIT: and anyways im asking because, i use Honor 4X/Gplay, and its the same phone that the P8 lite, except internal storage, so that's why im wondering, anyways i think i used your AOSP, that had some bugs like no signal, no wifi, etc (im not sure if you made it), the thing is that rom worked it in my phone too lol
You're just awesome dude! We are all very excited about this project. This is just awesome!

Sounds great! If you want someone who can help you testing, i can do that!
Yay, i bought p8lite 2 days ago and i love it!
Great work btw
dude this is awesome !!! so there is no more ril problem this is just great thank you very much !!!!
Hi @XePeleato first of all Good Job and second as i can see into the screenshots the RIL problem is persistent or you didn't insert the SIM . I'm following your work on github if u need someone who test the ROM call me

Hi, The SIM is there, the thing is that I need to patch the framework in order to include the Huawei Java classes that enable the RIL stack. I'll release a testing version soon, since I want to include things to test, it wouldn't make sense to upload a rom with 1 or 2 features working, there would be nothing to test

Wifi worked fine on my 5.1 AOSP version, The system.img weighs roughly 800MB, I don't know exactly how much will it take, since CM13 didn't erase my internal storage.

Well, sokkoban recieved a LOT of input about his roms, there were a lot of questions and stuff, it can get really annoying, these open source projects come "As is, without warranty of any kind" - quoting the GPL so actually, trying to give some decent support on this forums is really kind.

The Snap app is included, however since I haven't included the camera HAL yet, I don't know for sure if it will work.

I'll be off like a week or so, I have compiled my own kernel, with some CPU governors to try, and I have fixed the screen DPI so far, there's still some serious patching needed.
@XePeleato yeah it worked, but if im not mistaken, with static wifi, but interesting, if the system is 800MB i think i will be fine, thanks for all about this
This is just my mind. But i would be more happier if i got fully working cm13 marshmallow than aosp lollipop. If i was you. I would take cm as a primary mission. But do as you want. Aosp is great news too
Keep it up man!

Sure, your opinion matters. Luckily, if I apply a patch to CM, it's also valid on AOSP, the same applies for the kernel.

[DISCUSSION] Nougat AOSP for ZE500KL ?

I was thinking: since we have an unlocked bootloader and custom roms, how hard would be to port AOSP Nougat?
There is any tecnical difficulty, like kernel version, that can block us?
Not much, I would imagine.
As far as I can tell, it'd just take a dev that's interested in putting in the effort.
Yes, this counts as my "yes, please" vote for Z00T.
I am votting with yes
I was thinking about do a try and compile it straight away, but i fear i'm not experienced enough to make something bootable
I don't think that the kernel or other thing will block it, but we got a custom ROM so late and I don't think we'll have a CM14 very soon
Cm14 should be prettt easy since we have cm 13, the point is that right now is not worth it because it's still in early stage, so a fully fledged cm13 would be more usefull.
AOSP is another talk because it's so barebone

Umm, thanks for your thoughts about trying to bring N, it seem you got the answer yourself
from what i look at Z00L/T source, other than some fix and caf one, they could bring N to L/T with some borrowed libs. And looking from our source, I still found some line with L/T on it, so, yes, dev may bring N to this device, just hope that libs going to work with this devices.
But as you said, a fully fledged cm13 would be useful, using RR build for 3 days, and got the problem as they says. Plus, for me, front camera isn't working (called arclib or something, front camera effect when using asus camera, it's working fine with other camera because they didn't load that lib). Constant lag when using GPS other than "gps only" (might RR only problem). etc..
Either way, I hope that you could join the team (or, is he a one man army?) maintaining this device, fixing things come first, upgrade when everything is fine. At least "ok".
I don't know about AOSP, but many say choose CM because of CM broad compatibility layer. If that's true, then AOSP might slightly harder...
or... not really.

Interesting, I'm not developer but I think this is possibke, Android 7.0 supports S410, maybe CM14 will better than AOSP.

I can't download the sources because it me give an errore i can't compile a ROM,sorry
Still waiting for news.
I tried to compile it myself, I downloaded all the sources, but since the Z00ED / RD is not officially supported by CyanogenMod, and then the repository and everything else must be manually added, I tried but I get error during compilation. Now we must wait for some developer is able to have time to complete it, because basically if you have created for the Z00L / Z00T do not see why you can not fill because they have the same processor. Sorry for my bad English

Huawei P9 Lite devs

Good day lads,
Disclaimer:
Code:
I don't know if you noticed a thread in the Q&A section that was closed by Matt. While I respect Matt's decision to close it, I find it a very relevant topic... The future of LineageOS for the P9 Lite. Please note that I do respect meticulous' wishes to charge for his work because I know how time consuming it is I wish to firmly express that I do not condone this mentality when it comes to Linux based operating systems.
I decided to make this thread with my little Dev knowledge in order to attract more devs who's willing to put in work on a stable device tree for free in spirit of community and for all to enjoy.
I do not have the Lineage source code at the moment but I will start downloading soon, I do know that I will need help and I encourage more devs/beginners to lend a hand for the benefit of us all.
Please, to begin, post links to relevant tarballs/links/downloads for development purposes, device tree and kernels, anything you've worked on so perhaps we can all work together.
Cheers

Hmmm... The fact that building android ROMs is time consuming is not a good enough reason to request money for OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. Yes, LineageOS and android in general are open source, so that's an infraction.
About the collective effort, that's a good idea, but there are no sources from Huawei right now. You need to wait for the Nougat sources if Huawei really gives a dime about releasing them. From that point, it is easier to develop and get stuff working. Until then, good luck working without sources and experimenting stuff. Not to mention that there's no official TWRP as well, and TWRPs posted here on XDA for our devices have specific requirements to get them flashed on your device.

Why do you need to come here with negativity? I don't support meticulous but he can do what he wants with the device sources he took the time to build, heck, he doesn't need to release those sources so I don't know what you're talking about, firstly. Secondly, a device tree can be built, Q.E.D we as a community can work on it together, if they release it we'll just have it much easier.
Note also; I've asked for relevant input and help from the community.
Thanks for your time though.
EDIT: P.S Professional Flasher, have you ever built a ROM before? Because that's my target here, finding people who knows how to fix error and put the tree together

This disussions are undesired here. I know a board where you can discuss that. If you want, feel free to have a look at it. This little Board is very pleased about every enlivenment. Opened a thread over there.
Well, developers do not grow on trees. I guess there are not enough devs here who have the P9 Lite device.
However I like the intention of the thread author. For that reason please try to discuss in a human way.
In the end: I am vers interested in learning how to build custom roms but I can't find a way how to learn it. Does anyone have some good advice?
Updated kernel
Hello everyone, I've recently been working on updating the Honor 5c kernel to 3.10.105 and so far it seems to be working fine on my P9lite, LineageOS 14.1. It's based purely on stock, with one or two commits borrowed from Meticulus' kernel repo, so it compiles without errors.
Since this is a new account, I can't link my repo directly, you can find it on my github profile, Avsky.
I'll be making my own additions to master branch, while stocklike branch will contain only fixes and kernel updates.
If somebody would like to test them, you can get the boot image from releases tab on github. Stock kernel hasn't been tested, mind you, always keep a backup!
Also depending on how much time I have, I might get started on bringing OmniROM to our device (I'm really missing it). I'm just a college student though, so it might never see the light of day, any help is much appreciated.

Hello, I tried your kernel on AOSPA MM but I couldn't get the proper unpacked zImage. I got only 9.7 MB gzip which contains the 22 MB Image but I couldn't extract it.
Could you provide the zImage?

Strange, I can extract it without problem using abootimg. Anyway, zImage now included on releases page.

That zImage looks like the same I got from unpack. For some reason it won't boot when I repack it with my ramdisk.

I repacked and uploaded my image with ramdisk from your latest AOSPA, could you try it? Sizes varied a bit, I've used my abootimg config with SELinux changed to permissive, as that is the case in your image.
EDIT: I'm uploading extracted zImage as well.

Yeah of course it works :silly:. Looks like my boot-packing skills are pretty low. Good job :fingers-crossed:

Glad to hear it! Your images seem to be using uncompressed zImages, while in stock ROMs they're gzipped, seems like unintentional change somewhere in your build process.

Yeah you're right. I just checked it and I am copying Image instead of Image.gz. Seems like it's only a 'cosmetic' issue because it runs anyways.
Great news guys, my sources now compile with latest Linaro toolchain. The kernel actually barely needed any fixes, but I'm not releasing anything prebuilt yet, since I have no idea what impact on stability my hacks might have.

Perhaps reading through GitHub commits, checking the code and see whether or not you're really interested. If you're using a Linux distribution which I strongly advise, learn bash scripts first - it's easy and self explanatory and from there you will get basics of directories and calling up files.
Goodluck

I agree this message is a bit long but it is worth reading.
- Thanks, but sorry. Even if I give you the links and even if spend your precious time you would only be able to fix the error 7.
- Actually I've already fixed that(or know what's the issue atleast). There are files that are missing from the directories that are listed in the updater script. They cannot be deleted as the original base ROM I compiled was from UA(unlegacy android) that are based on the newer sources.
- Some files that are required for MIUI are also missing.
- Boot.img is incomplete. Which will result in bootloop even if I upload the error 7 fixed ROM.
- I am giving my board exams that are one of the biggest exams in India. And I cannot afford to score less in these.
- All I need is a older base ROM ,CyanogenMod 11 made around may of 2016. And also it must support init.d because the port ROM requires that.
- I've taken permissions from the maker of the port ROM. He has allowed me to proceed.
- All I need is permission from Android-Andi, as only he has older CM ROMs.
- I cannot compile because older sources are not available or maybe I am not known to them
Hope you understand. Thank you.
P.S. - Android-Andi if you read this please reply. You are the only one who can help me(by providing me permissions to use your ROM as a base).
With best regards,
Kunal Gautam

Have you seen this CM 11? https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-2/7-inch-development/rom-cm-11-0-galaxy-tab-2-t3737392
Just made last month by @Deltadroid
Links are removed because *the ROM is not complete yet*.
Thanks, but I need to confirm a few things before I could use a ROM(includes init.d support and a bunch of other things). Also, it is very important that deltadroid provide me permission to use his ROM.
Thank you!
Regards,
KG
-----_edit_--------
I just saw deltadroid's thread, the title clearly says that the ROM is for p3110. I want to make a unified one. I need a ROM made with unified device tree.
If I do port, it will only work on p3110 and maybe on every 7" device. I don't want do this.
Sorry, but yeah thanks!
Just wait till 3 april 2018. Most probably I will upload.
Edit 2
Or I must say it an update. 75 percent of the work is done. Somehow I managed to get a base ROM(only I know how). Only build.prop editing and Updater script editing work left(these are the most difficult BTW).
Update coming soon. Stay tuned.
I've updated the links. I've uploaded the new ROM. I've done with porting(i guess). I've used a lot of time.
Flash and review!

No wonder the ROM doesn't work.... Security patch is in a wrong format.
"ro.build.version.security_patch=2080-17-March"
It should be, "ro.build.version.security_patch=2018-03-01"
or,
"ro.build.version.security_patch=2018-03-05"
And this, hardly doubt this will work, but idk.
"ro.build.date.utc=999999999999"
Mistakes....................
EDIT**** Build id should be the app id: example lets say the id is 678, on build.prop, it would say 678.
you have, "ro.build.id=KUNAL"

You, sir, definitely have a lot to offer. I am afraid that this is not the actual problem. By now, I surely understand the importance of logs. Would be very helpful if someone could arrange me them.
And about your post it seemed really rude, raw, insulting and manipulating to me. But however, helpful. It makes it really hard to continue developing for a 6 years old Tab, with hardware that has nothing to offer in 2018. At least, I am trying.
Since, this was an Alpha build(because I moved sources) these problems are sure to arise. I did the same(build.prop things) with my kinda successful ROM MIUI 5(see it in the 7" forums).
I guess you haven't tasted port ROMs yet. They are hard to build. Alike your compiling ones, you have source, type some commands, turn your computer on for about 5 hours, when done upload it.
I am sure you must have did trail and error (in chemistry and math) porting ROMs is just the same. I am sure, that as a developer, you must know what logs actually mean.
But whatever, thank you for you review(insult I guess).

FYI, I port ROMs. It was pointers what to fix, if you wanted to get this ROM better, than it is already.

Sorry, I won't give permissions after different people used my ROMs as base in the past without permissions. Hope there is a learning affect....
Since i love OpenSource: Sources are available on every official GitHub (slim, Omni, Lineage, UA) and up to date (note: I wouldn't have to do this, I could keep all device trees private but I am updating them for everyone - always). You'll have to compile your own base ROM to use for such port ROMs (I am not a fan of).
