Light painting in P8 Lite

Hey,
I've got a question - has somebody port the camera app from Chinese firmware? I have android 6.0 on my P8 lite, but light painting was not included. I've tested this option on P8 and i want to have it on my phone
Thanks

Someone posted it once couldn't find it. Would be really thankful too if someone does.

already try it it wont install
you need to flash the chineese firmware to have it

Yes, but i don't want to lose warranty when i install Chinese soft. It's matter what soft i am using?

I guess hypotheticaly you would loose your warranty but you can almost always recover your phone from software issues and only have to send it in for hardware stuff and they most likely wont even realize that youre using chinese software so it doesnt actually matter, but its at your own risk.

Hi;
Do you know how can we install the chinese firmware on our P8 lite?
I have B565 EU Sim only version but i wouldnt mind installing the chinese version if its going to give me the light painting and call recording functions.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Went through the whole general section but could not find the thread.
I think the reason being, he removed most of the threads hence they are no longer available
I very rarely ask questions and only if i really cannot find the answer. But i think someone has gotten on Sokkoban's nerves. So they are no longer accessible...

Source code for Android 6 MM
Hello,
yesterday I write an email to Huawei Support for download link to MM Source code for Mate S, if I receive it, is there any chance for LineageOS Nougat or Oreo ROM?
P.S.: Sorry for my bad English.

I'd love a port of Lineage OS on the Mate S too :crying:

Finally
Hello for everyone, after very long email communication with Huawei support I was finally succesfull and recieve Source Code for Android 6.0 Marshmallow for Huawei Mate S. Here are links for download:
1) https://app.box.com/s/e008lebhvvo1xv0lxebvzfmx385kyqqd
2) http://download-c1.huawei.com/downl...oadId=97073&version=402728&siteCode=worldwide
This open a chance for better Custom ROMs and hopefully for deserved Nougat ROM.
Enjoy it.

For a nougat rom, the mate s does not meet the technical requirements. I'm working on a miui rom, MM.

Possibly nougat on mate S

Rom doesn't exist. This is one of the usual methods to lure stupid users into advertising, subscription or casinos.

So, I noticed that there is a beta of Lineage OS for the P8, which has almost the same hardware as our Mate S: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p8/development/rom-lineageos-13-0-14-1-t3585290 This is Android 7 and 6, so that means that Android 7 (N) should also work on our Mate S (https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?&idPhone2=7533&idPhone1=7006)
I believe porting this beta to Mate S shouldn't be that difficult for a dev with some experience (I'm afraid I have 0 experience and knowledge).
Maybe someone better suited could take a look at this? I can help with whatever I can.

You're wrong about the p8. Search for roms for the Honor 7. These will work on the mate s. I've tested several. But no sim is recognized at all and wifi is not possible. My mate s has a display damaged. That's why I couldn't think of a solution.

Oh, now that makes sense. Thanks for the clarification!
Well, if you ever wanna test remotely I'm sure there's a bun hat of us who would risk testing experimental builds
Alternatively people could donate to you so you could buy a mate s or maybe fix yours.
If you could build pure aosp I would gladly donate to see that happen.
Cheers!

No one knows the mate's as well as I do. Developed the first rooting, supersu tuned to it, built an extra kernel and make some emui custom roms. Some good developers have tried a porting. Not yet possible.

I have L29C567B183 and I flashed this rom B211. It booted up however many functions does not work properly for example I cannot get into developer option, backup and restore will reboot the phone, fingerprinting does not work, .... I flashed Kangvip B186 without problem. I do not think it will work properly on your phone unless your firmware is up to date (B211).

Thanks for your information. Im on b130 and I have no idea why it cant see any updates on my phone, maybe it's C635 not so popular. btw could you please give me a link to that Kingvip rom b183? I couldnt find it in this forum. Thanks!:fingers-crossed:

There is no Kangvip B183 for Mate 9. Only Kangvip B175, B186, and B211. I am on C567B183 and I flashed KangVip B186 without problem. Since you are on B130 you should start with Kangvip B175 and see if it works.

you must have base rom B211 for flash rom kangvipB211. I think you must rebrand to rom china and update ota to B211.

Anybody here already testing it? Any clue if the GPS bug is solved?

New ZUK Z2 Pro user needs help?

Hi, i have just bought a Z2 Pro and i have a few questions on what's the best setup i can do with it and put onto it. I think i have the international ROM on the device as it came with Google Play store and it has plenty of languages to choose from.
In Settings/About it states it has Android 6.0.1 and ZUI Version 2.3.044 ST on it.
I cannot for the life of me find how to check if there is an update for the ZUI on the phone so i am wondering how i can go about updating the firmware without voiding any warranty. I have limited experience in rooting phones and i would like to see if i can live with the latest ZUI version before delving into custom ROM'S to be honest.
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to upgrade the official international firmware for the ZUK Z2 Pro?
Regards
Stuart

it seems you've an unofficial vendor ROM
so you need to unlock bootloader and then flash with QFIL tool proper stock ROM or custom ROM (GizRom Nougat 7.x).
you will find all infos here: zukfans.eu/community/forums/zuk-z2-pro.4/

Thank you for clearing it up for me. I will look into bootloaders and flashing a ROM version onto it to get a more up to date version of android.

With QFIL you don´t need to unlock your bootloader

I managed to update to the latest ZUI but if i am honest it's not to my liking as half of the apps and writing is in Chinese so it's got to go.
I am now looking at how to put a custom Nougat ROM on that doesn't have many problems on the Z2 PRO. I believe i will have to figure out how to root the phone and possibly unlock the bootloader before flashing.
Are there any guides in how to flash a custom ROM on this site and what would be considered the best ROM to use?

Stu

I followed this guide which worked fine for unlocking the bootloader and rooting : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z2-pro/how-to/howto-install-mokee-7-1-1-unofficial-t3582686
Except instead of flashing Mokee, I recommend flashing this version of AICP : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zuk-z2-pro/development/rom-aicp-12-1-n-zuk-z2-pro-t3596836 . It's not officially supported by AICP but it's the only one I found where everything works perfectly, including customizing the U-touch gestures, and it comes with Magisk to manage root which is nice I think. Just don't forget to deactivate the 3 Chinese apps that are bundled with the ROM.

Make sure you have the latest version of HiSuite loaded ( on a Winblows box ). Connect usb - accept installing client of phone - choose Upgrade - and select the downgrade option.

I don't have that option ?

Dude you're still on first beta version.
Rollbacks are always risky
You can downgrade using old hi suite and rollback firmware from funky huawei (paid) or try to use firmware finder erecovery method. There are manuals here on xda, just do little search.
You can also try to upgrade to latest official version and then downgrade to oreo using official channels mentioned above.
