Hello,
i am really disappointed From the fact that we dont have a stable Oreo rom, i appreciate the work that some developer did like surdu and haky ....
But watching Chinese mtk old devices get oreo, also Galaxy s2 !!!!! got an oreo rom and one plus 1 and other old devices all of them got oreo despite being on marshmallow or above
by this post i just wanted to share my thoughts in this topic and motivate developers especially surdu to keep doing what they do

Android 7.0 with EMUI 5 ? with glass back like honor 8
Wow. That's amazing. Why this?
I dont know to be honest, but it will cost around 250€ in Europe. If I am right it has same motherboard as P8 lite 2015. Lets hope 7.0 will come to us soon
It has 655 so android 7 cannot be ported from it to us 650 chipset
I think this is the end of Android 7 dream for our P8 lite, and after release, probably end of all updates for old P8 lite version.
So what Huawei are basically saying is , if you want Android 7 you"ll have to buy a NEW phone. Hope our device gets LineageOS soon.
If p8 won't get it because the processor won't support it, why do you keep feeding the idea that we'll get Nougat someday? Only through Custom Roms, won't ever happen officially.
I don't think our phone could handle Nougat well... Plus it usesa different board; ours has Kirin 620 and this new one have Kirin 655

Our phone of course can handle Nougat very well.........Samsung galaxy S3 can run it smooth and our phone is superior to it ....
is funny that my moto G 4g from 2013 has custom roms with android 7.1.1 and it is smooth as ****, a lot faster than my Honor 4X (Kirin 620) with emui 4.0 lol, the only thing that my Huawei is better is on games, the rest the moto g is a lot better
anyways i'm not blaming the devs, i blame huawei for sharing a ****ty source code so, to build custom roms it is hard as hell
I think it was pretty obvious that we will not get EMUI 5 (or android 7.0 generally) officially. It really seems like huawei goes out plain and says : "You want Nougat? Buy yourselves an improved version of the phone and expect no further updates whatsoever". Also, the P8 Lite can handle Nougat like many other less powerful phones out there like the Moto G. We are counting on devs for 7.0 rom (like LineageOS) but with the source code that Huawei has provided is seems really hard.

I have also read some sources claiming that. I cannot find a link right now as there has been more than a month since i've read that. The sources claimed that the P8 Lite along with the P8 will get EMUI 4.1 with some ported-back features from EMUI 5. There is already EMUI 4.1 from vodafone so , if this is true, i am curious to see what are the ported-back features. I am starting to doubt this after seeing the release of the P8 Lite (2017) though....
Emui 4.1 will be the last EMUI Big Update for us. Huawei says "You wanna have EMUI 5? get the P8 Lite 2017"
Hello,
does anyone have any information on the P8 lite 2017 regarding root?
Will there be a seperate subforum here XDA?
Thanks

lol wut, chipset on new device is different, old P8 lite will not get new Android officially, stupid post, close it pls
Smells like Samsung. Everyone want Android KitKat on Samsung S3 but Samsuns makes a new one (The S3 Neo), lol
Searching the whole Redmi 4x a.k.a Redmi 4(India) thread on XDA I came up to know that xiaomi has not released kernel sources yet. I was looking forward to buy this device but looking at the lazy response from manufacturer I doubt the development and getting it. Share your thoughts and suggestion down below. Should I get this device or get Lenovo zuk Z2 plus which is available around the same price ?
I'm waiting for a deal to get one for my mom. I'm happy so far with my Note 4X (SD 625) which I'm running with Resurrection Remix, so I think a slighty downsized and down-specced version would be great for her. If there is no custom firmware in the near future, she'll be fine. I wouldn't wanna miss LOS or RR on my phone, but MIUI isn't bad for lots of people.
There are already a few custom ROMs for RM4X like yurekaOS based on nougat 7.1.2 and as i read in forums it seems to be running ok for the most users.
Still i wouldn't expect too much in custom development. see RM3S for example. there are ROMs available but development goes slow
So if you are no friend of MIUI (and upcoming MIUI 9) and want lot of custom development then you might consider buying another phone.
Hi,
any plans for CM 13.1 or Lineage equivalent for Redmi Note 4X Qualcomm not built on nougat?
Need Android 6 as 7+ doesn't allow for USB bus speed auto-negotiation, which is "kinda" big deal in my application.
Thanks for input

So a marshmellow rom could be possible?
I think y6 is not good for Android 7 too heavy for that specs, a version with Android 6 on board could be really welcome for the best experience

What is your telegram group? I will be glad to join.If you mean that one in guides section it says link is invalid. I can create a group if there isn't one.
It would be possible. But Its going to need heavy debloating to minimize ram usage. As you can see there is no port of other devices. Roms out there are based on lineage. This is no fault of dear developers. You should consider the fact that as you know y6 is weak for handling higher androids and manufacturer roms like EMUI and MIUI. But we can make it possible by minimizing resource usage

Ies it is only my opinion
All lineage attempt on board of y6 with 1 GB ram and that cpu, can't give a smooth experience than Android stock 5 or 6 that no need so much ram as Nougat or Oreo .
Mm is however a step ahead from lollipop.
Every working rom based on Android 6 for me, are appreciated.

Lineage 15 is much smoother than stock ROM or cm 13
Yeah nougat and oreo need more ram but are working good

Its not only about resource usage, you are petty wrong.
I seen devices with hardware less powerful than y6 running nougat wihout a lot of optimisations, you first need to get the ROM working. And after that think about any optimisations.
hi there! are u still working on this or what ? :/

Kind of hard to dev anything on a device where the manufacturer does everything to stop you from doing that.
Also Kirin.
Agree , but this is first time that i buy a phone that is not flaghship , and i also heared that there is no android pie for this device ...
yes i agree too, i used xiaomi redmi note 3 before and untill now still active form dev. unlike this device and my note 3 is much faster gpu unlike this kirin. h6250.

High chance that it won't get pie because it's already received one major os upgrade.

You have to keep in mind that's not an exact answer. While I would be more than happy if this device (including some others such as mate se, honor 7x) get EMUI 9, seeing as how all of those devices shipped with nougat and already got oreo (one major os update) there is a very high chance these devices won't experience EMUI 9. Hopefully it does though. So far the only devices i know that have kirin 659 and shipped with oreo (haven't received one major os update) are: Huawei P20 Lite, P Smart, Honor 9 Lite and Honor 9N.

Unfortunately because Mediatek doesn’t release full device source for MT6752 and others chipsets , developing a full stable & fluid Rom is not easily possible.
from Oreo , Android structure is completely changed and current available kernels like Renice are not suitable for later androids like Oreo, pie or 10.
If you search for other devices that use this chipset (MT6752) , you see that all of them stops at Oreo with huge of bugs and while other devices with weaker chips ( like Nokia 1 ) will receive even android 10 , but our device with such a great power cannot go further , that’s because Mediatek do not provide Full device source , While Qualcomm provide this sources for every devices , and phones with Snapdeagon cpus can receive maximum available android version.
