P9 Lite Nougat roms dont have Vulcan enabled. - Huawei P9 Lite Guides, News, & Discussion

Drivers and hardware support is there. But API version shows 0.0.0 so games don't run with Vulkan. I tried running Vulkan game by compiling Vulkan-only game with Unreal Engine 4 and doesnt work. Any developer here can enable Vulkan?

Try talking to Hassan Mirza here on XDA, he seems to be the only one to really put an effort in P9 lite development

Summoning @HassanMirza01
Can you do it?

cm 13 for honor 5c

Can we expect cm13 for honor 5c
It's hard to determine, nothing available yet (kernel source, device tree, bootloader unlock).
as honor and xda are now tied up we can expect it soon.
morover being kirin it would be a hard time for them
anyways i think yhe source code is aldredy availabe at huawei site.

I don't see a 5C kernel source there, is it named differently?!
No,you are all wrong!
The Bootloader can be unlocked easily by now.I'm a Chinese,lots of instructions are on our websites.And the TWRP for Honor 5C is already available.

The kernel source is available,but named differently. The Huawei p9 Lite and Honor 5C share the chipset and kernel source. I noticed that there were defconfigs of "nemo" next to my "venus" ones. And only recently did I discover that the codename for the 5C is "Nemo".
Even the previous generation of the Huawei P line uses the CM device and vendor tree of a Honor 4C or something,because they are identical inside.

Go check on my github for the device tree,and XePelato for the kernel source.
Although the kernel source is there,it is tricky to build(only two people managed to build it...)

If someone wants to compile the kernel, it's here: https://github.com/XePeleato/android_kernel_huawei_venus
The instructions are inside, if someone could report if it works, I'd really appreciate it.

The product we should add the ramdisk to is the "Image" file or the "Image.gz" file?
Image
I'm sorry but I see this too late.I have a Honor 5C with 3GB RAM(NEM-AL10).I can test it on my phone.Can you try it?
I advice you to wait for a more stable custom ROM
Waiting eagerly for a stable build

How come the honor 8 has lots of AOSP based roms, and we don't

Everybody here is saying that wating for a custom rom for p8lite2017 is a waste of time because huawei doesn't release the sources, then why does honor 8 have so many custom roms for it ? It has EMUI 5 just like us, it's made by the same company in the same year, how did the devs manage to make roms for it ??
Honor 8 source code is released, for P8 Lite 2017 isn't.

Ah.. i didn't know that, i thought HUAWEI didn't release sources at all, thank you for the information
Some developers (also I) take the data of the devices which they own. They do not need the official resources. Therefore, there is not custom rom also from devices his resources were published. I build my custom rom when android 8 is released.

I'd be glad if we can get even just a custom kernel..But if we do get a custom rom, then all the more better!
AOSP based rom <3 <3 <3
what about K rom in honor 6x dose it compatible with our device ?
K-rom

I already work some time on a EMUI 5 custom rom. Alike for Honor 6x. Only of the Kernel is not enough. We also need 100% Recovery. There is not that.

True. Our Recovery isn't that all stable and consistent. I am not really expecting too much from this phone since its a budget device, and I got most of the things I want and need to work: root, busybox, Viper4Android. The TWRP is a bonus, even if its in a semi-usable state.
It's great if we can have Custom ROMs, but even just a custom kernel will suffice for now.
OFFTOPIC: On another note, I am hoping that Xposed will somehow work for Android 7 onwards. Even without a Custom ROM, that will open a lot of doors for customization.
When source codes get released you can find them here: http://consumer.huawei.com/en/opensource/
When I search for PRA, which I think is your phone model, I can get sources. Seems like sources are available for your phone

You can have the Kernel with pleasure. Comes from the B110. Use on own risk.

Team Openkirin made an Oreo testversion for P8lite.

Hardware of P8lite is mostly similar to Che2-L11.

Well I have Snapdragon variant. So this means it's the end of Honor 4x development for this variant as even if someone will port the ROM through his sources it'll only work with devices having Kirin SoC right?
