Development dead for Honor Play? - Honor Play ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve

Regarding recent news that HPlay won't be getting EMUI 10. So we are essentially stuck with a locked bootloader and Android Pie. Does this means the development for this device won't continue any longer?

No you're not the only one. I've had 3 different honor phones and i can tell you now if you're expecting regular, or even consistent updates, you've bought the wrong phone. Honor are really bad with updates or they'll update one region but not another, e.g both india and Germany have had at least one update, here in the UK we've had none. Honor haven't even put up the stock firmware yet.

Not getting oreo update for my p10 plus

Hello, i've been wondering why i cant get the oreo update on my p10 plus while everybody else is. My most recent update is vky-l29c576b170 .
I'm not getting any new updates and that's frustrating since i know most p10 plus devices should have it already.
Can somebody help with this one?

No you'll have to rebrand your phone first if you want that. This involves unlocking your bootloader, which Huawei doesn't support anymore.

Yes, until Huawei pushes an update for your brand. DC unlocker can unlock your bootloader, but it will cost you about 5 USD.

Is it me or DC unlocker's web page for buying credits is down?
I did not get a new update for more than a year, phone was stuck on Nougat version. I recently called Huawei support, explained the problem, they asked me IMEI and told me to wait two/three week. Yesterday I got all updates, now on Oreo - 8.0.0.375 version .

~~
Hello Guys, I am posting this just to let you know that a guy from Our Honor Play Telegram Group (Ken Kaneki) has successfully flashed the Resurrection Remix Based on Lineage OS Oreo 8.2
On his Honor Play.
He wasn't able to Flash/Boot Pie GSI due to some TWRP Encryption problem.
(this will be solved soon by the TWRP developer)
So guys, custom development has started, so get your phone unlocked and unleash its full potential
Features:-
1) AOSP feel
2) More to Discover ...
Problems/Bugs with the GSI:-
1)Notch Not working (Because Open Kirin doesn't support phones with Notch yet)
2) Will Update

Is there any other way of unlocking the bootloader other than buying the code from third party developer groups?

Up, I ask the same thing
Ok ok gsi and openkirin arent the same but in some ways are however as phatpows noted out there, me and another Dev are working on to fix those bugs in twrp and see what we can do to expand the custom rom availability for this device.
For bootloader unlocking I don't know anymore ask around on honor/Huawei communities and see if anyone is giving out free unlocker bootloader codes if not and you can't wait, you can get one at your service centre if you live in India apparently I live in London and I don't think we have one although we have funkyhuawei like every other country globally so just phone up or just request a bootloader unlocker codes for 55 dollars ruffly 43 pound sterling
Hope this helps and answers everyones queries for the time being.

We have to find a way to unlock the bootloader without paying, if there are few people the modding for this smartphone will be very slow, so many do not unlock it because it costs a lot the key Funkyhiawei! Prediction, there will be a way in the future to unlock the free bootloader??? I'm hoping for it day after day in a solution.
I'll stay stock because I can't afford to spend money being unemployed.
I've tried flashing stock recovery but twrp is still there as my recovery
Any help???

If in India the Service Center's can do it, because in Italy say that you can not do because Huawei has completely closed the distribution of key? Give me a hint on how to unlock the bootloader without paying please

AI should be working as it has Huawei's camera app. However on Honor Play, personally for me fingerprint didn't work for screen unlock. It did work for gestures and everything but the screen unlock. I have tried more than a couple times with different gsi's and everytime I roll back to emui due to FP issue

Ok bro

Official LineageOS support

will there be official LineageOS support?
A little bit early to tell i think but since Huawei stopped the bootloader unlock programm in April 2018 it will be at least more difficult and in general i think not as much development as on other phones. Also Kirin phones are harder to mod i think
That stinks why do the lock the bootloader?
There has been very little ROM development for Huawei flagship phones such as P20 Pro / Mate 20 Pro. Doesn't help with locked bootloaders and unlocking services have unstable ability to offer codes, sometimes they can offer codes at other times they can not. Currently FunkyHuawei offering unlocking codes for "$1150 HKD ($146 USD) per code" though some cheaper sites can be found.

IF you still manage to get a device with unlocked bootloader, there's no way to root it or install a working TWRP, because there's ZERO development on Huawei P30 Pro and onward uawei devices...
That's because Huawei stopped giving users unlock bootloader codes and without them we can't have acces to get root, create custom rom's, TWRP and so on....

If you enable developer options, you can enable "OEM unlocking", with the description "Allow the bootloader to be unlocked".

No. You still require the unlock key which is unique to each phone, and Huawei stopped giving them to users last year.
I saw the other brand fourms,how about the CVE 2020-0041 vulnerabilities ,
it's worked for other brand with locked bootloader...have anyone try and save it?:crying:
Annoyingly I bought my P30 about 5 days before Huawei stopped sending people bootloader unlock codes, I only bought it because it was a nice rootable flagship phone. By the time I got the actual device, I couldn't get any codes any more.
Grrr Huawei!
( Also wow, this is an ancient signature, I should change that some year! )
You will need to downgrade to EMU 9.0 I believe. I was able to unlock the bootloader on my P30 lite and install TWRP + Lineage OS 16 been running stable for weeks.
