Don`t like EMUI - P8lite General

I own a Huawei P8 Lite 2017 and it is currently running EMUI 5.0.1. I really don`t like the appearance. I use Nova launcher but still the lockscreen and other things remain as EMUI. I wanted to know if there is a way that it could look like a Stock Android ( like the Pixel ).

Update 4.1 emui

Anyone knows releases emui 4.1 for p8 lite
I would hope for emui 5 with android 7 nougat,I dont feel like emui 4.1 will make such a difference.
Sources say that this will be released in Q1 or Q2 2017 but we dont know whether it is emui 4.1 or 5.

Look at sites like this one:
http://article.isunfar.com.tw/posts/information/Android%207.0%20Nougat的手機升級清單/26950
Its chineese, but the device names could be read ))
"For those wondering, EMUI 5 will be coming to other devices with the update planned for the Mate 8, P9 and P9 Plus early next year followed by the honor 8 and other Honor branded devices in Q2 2017. Hardware limitations aside – such as a dual lens camera etc – most devices getting EMUI 5 should get the full feature set and for those not set to get the update, there will be an updated version of EMUI 4.1 that will bring some of these changes. The P8 and P8 Lite are likely to be two devices that aren’t updated to EMUI 5 but instead get a tweaked version of EMUI 4.1, with some of the functionality from the latest version." android authority

EMUI 5.0 Theme Questions

Hi guys! My P8 Lite 2017 came with EMUI 5.0 and Android 7.0 (as with all variants, I believe?) and I seem to be stumped with the theming options.
I've tried a few Themes for EMUI 5.0, and I'm mainly interested with those that change the Status Bar colors / icons, NavBar Icons, System UI Accents (phone, sms, Quick Settings tile colors) but none of theme seem to work.
This is my first Huawei device and EMUI ROM, so I don't have experience with this.
How does the EMUI 5.0 themes work on yours?
TIA
Since it's a "lite" device, you must root it in order to get themes fully working. See this threath of Honor 6X.

I did try this out as I'm rooted, but it still doesn't work.
Up to what extent does the themes on your P8 Lite 2017 change on your UI?

Sad news, this is for emui 4.1,for Vodafone users... Rest of the world have emui 4(.0.3)
So what? Custom rom can be based on newer EMUI version source code I guess...

It's not only custom roms but custom kernels. You can't compile kernel for emui 4.1 and flash it for emui 4.0
Yes, surdu is already working on it.

Still, you can easily switch to EMUI 4.1

Huawei released kernel source for roms which will not get further updates...so,we have 2 ideeas: rip vodafone roms, or 2: we will receive emui 4.1 (and i hope... This phone can run it, Huawei sair long time ago that p8 lite will get a little Emui 5 brother... Was that the emui 4.0.3? With sh#t email addition?

I asked greek Huawei page on Facebook and they don't know anything in particular about EMUI 4.1 on P8 Lite... We can flash CAM ROMs in TWRP but some stuff didn't work... I'll try again. Like NFC not working makes sense, but the theme engine doesn't work at all ?

Question Lineage OS for Mate X2 ?

Hi everyone,
is there somewhere an android alternative custom rom for our phones ? Like Lineage or else ?
I am not a big fan of emui nor harmony OS. And I would be very pleased to use a stock android or a light custom rom.
Thanks for you help.
no it's not possible with huawei
Definitely not, that requires a rooted fone first and foremost. If you're not a big fan of emui or harmony why get a Huawei device?

Because there is no competition for this phone (hardware wise) today. It seems to me to be the best phone to date.....and i could live with some software limitations. But I was hoping for an alternative rom :/
