Project Treble note 8 ? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Is this even possible ?
Running s9 port.

Short answer: No.

It would require a partition change on your Note 8 which would completely wipe your device... I don't believe ANY OEM will do this as there would be too much of a hue and outcry from the regular - non XDA - users who suddenly lost everything in the update that gave them treble.
Also, most people wouldn't know what the heck you're talking about if you mentioned it so it is not to their economic advantage to give us treble on the Note 8.
I know many people who don't update to the latest and greatest simply because they don't know the difference...

Thx for clearing thing up. It's just that I tried the Project Treble check on my note 8 with s9 port it said (Congratulation your device, includes support for project Treble) SO I was just wondering how can that possibly be

we have a working s9 port, can we expect a working aosp in near future?

The port is completely unrelated afaik to the actual development of aosp. You can always check the development forums, the progress of LOS15.x is slowly progressing.

Not for the Note 8. Post #3 gives a pretty good explanation if you want to read through it.

it would be nice though if they could make it available to people who wants it though, as in you agree to a T&C disclaimer thing before you can download a file package type of arrangement.
Personally I won't bother with it as I am getting a note 9 anyway but it would be a nice thing for developers and people who wont get the 9 and I'm sure loads note 8 owners will not

Like said before, a OTA would wipe everyone's devices (and non-XDA people who may not know what Treble is may be fussy) but as time goes on and people look in, maybe in the future PT could happen for the 8 series.

No, the post is from December 12, 2017.
The writer has hoped, that Treble will be released with the Oreo-Update on Note8.
I now have the new firmware and there is no Treble

Some phones from Huawei got updated to Oreo with support for Project Treble. Doubt that the update wiped their device. https://www.gsmarena.com/here_are_all_the_android_devices_updated_with_treble_support-news-30391.php

Even if it doesn't, I doubt Samsung will OTA and/or a port of it will be hard to make (although the leaked firmware if I read right is Verizon/SD models)

Dude, you don't know. At the very moment, OxygenOS beta adds OnePlus 5 and 5T support to Treble. Also, remember iOS 10.3.1 or 10.3 whatever, adds new filesystem to the OS. And, guess what, OTA update didn't even wiped the device.

Yes but there was an un-formatted partition on the 5 & 5T. This has been used by oneplus now for Treble support...
It had been used by devs to add unofficial Treble support .
Not sure if Samsung have done this...

CyanogenMod for OnePlus 3T ?!

After I've reat a lot of threads about the OnePlus 3T, it seems that CM13 for the OnePlus 3 isn't compatible to the OnePlus 3T. Unfortunately there don't even exists a correponding thread in the CM forum for the OnePlus 3T. Even more unfortunately - I've also reat, that the developers won't support the OnePlus 3T.
Is that true... ore just a bad joke?

So, CM isn't compatible with a Snapdragon 821? Because that's the only real difference. I don't think so somehow.....it's more likely that some developers are resentful that OP discontinued the OP3 and started the OP3T and most developers bought a OP3, thus aren't buying a OP3T and make the small changes necessary to make ROMS work on OP3T?
So what about trying to do it yourself =)

I´m interested to learn but if cm needs to be built from scratch, that will be far away from my knowledge

I'm almost certain someone will build it at least since the Oneplus 3 is supported. Worst case I will build it myself. Got it to boot on the Huawei P8 so it shouldn't be too difficult for the 3T. I'm more interested in an AOSP build.

I prefer Resurrection remix but cm is a very good start. Do you need to create all the drivers self or how does it work when the first build should be created?
Anyone already working on this? I thought about it, but it would be my first build... could be fun.
I think there are few things like sd 821 which make op3 cm doesn't work on op3t, it should be compatible mostly.

As soon as the device and kernel trees are up RR will be officially supported
And personally. I don't think Source will release until nougat. Why would they release them with nougat less then a month away. Why would Devs spend the time making a rom when nougat is almost here.
If Oneplus 3T and 3 are mostly identical, then could all you really need for CM14.1 would be to edit the script in meta>google>android>script? or is CM not that simple?

That is an incredibly sage observation. If there are developers ready plug the CyanogenMod hole for the 3T (and I'm confident there's at least one or two), it'd be silly for them to plug it with CM13.1. The first CM build the 3T will see is likely 14.1.
If and when it does drop a month or two from now, I'll be abandoning OxygenOS immediately and permanently..

People, DON'T do this

I may have this wrong, but I was looking at CM ROMs over at the oneplus 3 forum (dev), and it appears that the first version of CM wasn't release for a little over 2 months from the release date of the oneplus 3. I wouldn't expect anything quicker over here (if anyone is trying). (well, someone is always trying).
I've built CM12 and 13 on various devices. There are guides all over the place that make it a matter of "process of elimination of errors" just to build, which can take from an hour to forever. (or a week) ; -- Getting it to boot is another thing entirely. You can get all of the useful blobs for the 3t even now from system.img (3.5.3) and build 3.5.3 based ROMs.
People are making the difference between 3t and 3 sound like a gaping chasm, when it's not very clear that there's a significant difference in instruction sets. Maybe the case is more than some developers don't want to support the 3t and all it's associated "problems". (some of those problems are just perceived problems). IF they just do the bare minimum and release 3t ROMs and Kernels then there'll be near chaos with a ton more people whining about something that doesn't work. Since the processor (and GPU) are different, then of course, that'll be a target for whiners that can't handle getting something for free and the few bugs that go with that. The thing that keeps me off of public development (these days) is how much crap I had to listen to while doing it ~3-10 years back.
I'm guessing a "fresh" set of people will do these next iterations of CM-NN.X coming along. Also, it would be somewhat "inspiring" if OnePlus would release those damn Camera sources (or even blobs).

i'm a developer lel...i bought a oneplus3t and i think that port of a oneplus3 rom isn't too difficult, the snapdragon820 and the snapdragon821 are basically the same processor, the only difference is the clock.so..for the building the device tree is identic, what changes is the kernel and the vendor..for the kernel i can use the same patch that cm have used for the oneplus3 so probably i'll support the oneplus3t. My rom isn't a cm based but when we talk about kernels and vendors the rom don't make any difference.

trust me, if you want to port a nougat rom or any versione of android on a non-nexus or on a non-pixel device don't build aosp...build AOKP, DirtyUnicorns (they are aosp based but they have a lot of modifications for non-nexus devices) or at last cm, cm is caf and with a caf base you can try to port the rom but don't belive to make a completly functional rom, for now doesen't exist a nougat kernel for oneplus3t so..if you succesfully build the cm probably will not boot or you could have many other problems.

In Terms Of Custom Roms & Kernels What Can We Expect ?

Is this influenced by Project Treble ?
You'll be able to run a stock rom via treble just like you can with the p10/mate10. That said, why would you want to? The camera will be straight trash on a custom rom.

It depends on what you take from this question:
1) Custom ROM based on EMUI, or
2) Custom ROam built from source.
If the P10 or Mate 10 series is anything to go by, there won't be many if any options of EMUI based customised ROMs. However, with the work that PHH is doing, he has stated earlier today (to a question of mine) that he will be looking to have his treble builds support the P20 Pro.
On Source built custom ROMs, you might loose things like the camera however there is also a potential that this could be ported over. Again, PHH has done some work to port over the Huawei camera to the Mate 10 etc but he also said he wouldn't be looking at this for the P20 Pro. Might be that we have to hope for someone else to try this task, I know I don't have the skill set for it.
Treble will definitely make it easier. However, it would still be helpful to get kernel sources released in a timely manner and encourage Devs to get this device / encourage Huawei to give devices to know quality developers.
In the meantime I would ask that people tweet or otherwise get in contact with Huawei to release kernel sources ASAP.

Expect nothing. Sell that crap and buy Nokia 3310. There is latest CM for it every day.
I'm not too concerned about a full custom ROM to be honest. Root is my main concern for minor tweaks and ad blocking etc

Any phone released with Android 8.0 or later (this will have 8.1), has to support treble as standard.
No idea what updates will be like but I hear that the bootloader will be unlockable and phh plans to support the P20 pro from a treble ROM perspective.
No idea about kernel sources being released by Huawei and therefore how long it might take for twrp and/or custom kernels to be built.

It never lack updates. Even mate 10 has plenty of updates.
What it lack is, an easy way to modify something.
Example,
I havent jump to this phone yet, because there's no root method available yet.
And android without root equal to : too many pain in the *ss, lol
Excuse me for being a paranoid Android, but with Huawei's past reputation on updates ..

It supports (checked on p20 pro c432 dual sim)
So the question is.
Has anyone successfully flashed a treble ROM on the P20 Pro?
Did it everything work?
How did you do it?
I've flashed several via twrp, flash system image.
None worked.
I've read that the twrp versions we have are incapable of wiping completely.
Not only that but if you've modified the phone, IE: root etc it won't work.
Obviously you need to be able to flash the system IMG but by what method is it going to be successful?
Had tried los, dotos and cosmic all booted fine. Haven't had time to play with these roms though. I like the dotos design but I can't set-up fingerprint.
I flashed the images via fastboot.

Any hope for PIXEL ROM?

The phone is out now month but no custom rom or full working twrp (china twrp is the best working). I think whene you need custom rom go to Oneplus. Good dev support. Xiaomi have no dev support. There is also gsi rom but gsi is not good and i dont like this roms.

I used Oneplus 6T , but Oneplus 7 Pro is overpriced. I usually switch phones between 500~600$ every 6month. So I think Oneplus 7 Pro is a no go for me,
Apparently qualcomm only just released the source code for SD 855, on CAF. Without the source code, no real development, unless it's GSI or xiaomi firmware based.... If oneplus had released a phone months ago with the SD 855, it probably wouldn't have been much different, apart from oneplus stock firmware being much better to begin with
I still remember when I got my oneplus 6 it took a good while for the first aosp rom came out, before that modded oxygen OS only and mods etc, so I think we need to be patient, cheers

Give it time and you'll see custom roms. For now, you can use GSI or MIUI. GSI is pretty good with working Fingerprint even. Personally using AOSiP GSI and it's good for what I do.
Randomblame is working on something let's see and wait for it.
Yes just bought Mi9. Looking for pixel rom too
Sorry for stupid question, I'm just move from WindowsPhone, but can somebody explain why Pixel rom? In a few months will be here Android Q, so if I flash beta Q now, will be the differences between Pixel and Mi9 after final Q version?

I'll try to make it simple.
Android system has many versions, these are incremental. From Android 1 to Android 9, and Android 10 in beta right now.
Each Android version has a name :
Android 6 = Android Marshmallow = Android M
Android 7 = Android Nougat = Android N
Android 8 = Android Oreo = Android O
Android 9 = Android Pie = Android P
Android 10 = Android Q???? = Android Q
These are the original systems made by Google.
It's like Windows 95, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 10.
Now the beauty of Android is that anyone can customise the base/original system to whatever he wants. That is what big companies like Samsung is doing, or Xiaomi (MIUI) or OnePlus(OxygenOS) etc!
And there are smaller developer teams that build their own to the community, one of them is Pixel ROM.
Pixel ROM is available for Android O, Android P, etc depending on the phone model and what the team wants to build. Of course there are other custom ROM, many great and Pixel ROM is one of them.
Differences between Android Q and Android P? There will be, but Q is still in beta.
When Android Q will be out, I'm pretty sure there will be Pixel ROM Android Q. Right now it's Pixel ROM Android P.
However, Pixel ROM is not available for Mi 9 yet! That's why people ask for it. It's not easy though, you need developers, they need to own the phone, and Xiaomi needs to share the source !
Ok, thank you, it's clear now. My misunderstanding was that I thought, that Pixel is name of phone and not a name for custom ROM.

Actually you are not that wrong. The Google Pixel phones have a ROM called "Pixel ROM". And the goal of "custom Pixel ROM" is to be like "Google Pixel ROM" + bonus!

Give it time and you'll see custom roms. For now, you can use GSI or MIUI. GSI is pretty good with working Fingerprint even. Personally using AOSiP GSI and it's good for what I do.

Question Is Unofficial OrangeFox Reovery at least coming?

Dear all, a few months back, I saw that there was someone who posted the orangefox recovery for Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra, but the post either got deleted because the forum rules were not followed or got revoked, and now lost there somewhere. So does anyone know anything if any test version / unofficial version is available or underway? Also, in general I noticed that Mi 11 Ultra has quite less development in terms of modules and roms. Is there any particular reason for that (I really apreciate and respect all developers, this was just more out of curiosity)? Furthermore, there is also not an unofficial/ official Nethunter support for our devices.Thanks and best wishes, Siddhesh!

Thanks for the prompt reply. Oh yes, of course that is the one I am using at the moment. But Orangefox just has loads of additional features and looks better. That's why I was asking about it. Just felt a bit weird since it has been alread 1.5 years after our devicewas released and we don't have anything yet on O.F.
