Hi I was wondering if it's possible to get a stock ROM of Nexus 6P working on the Mate 8? Or a slightly modified version of the stock 6P?
um....no
two completely different devices with completely different hardware. ull basically need to rewrite the whole rom in order to port it, not exactly an easy untertaking...

No, but we will likely eventually get cyanogenmod, which is very similar, just with more options.

I think it dont work like that, we have to be ourself involved to cm devellopement to make it possible.
So our only chance is to get some of us(Mate8 owner) with enough skill to start to work on it.
we need roms like oppo rom
love it
That is the one down side to these phones as they aren't as popular as phones such as the LG G series, Samsung's, HTC's, Nexus series. They are great phones hopefully more developers get on board.

Hello all,
I saw post about CM11 aka Android 4.4.
Is the HOS getting CM11?
The kernel tree got a CM11 branch!
And the other repos also.
If we get CM11, should all the bugs be gone?

That would be very unlikely. The no bugs part.
Will definitely not happen. Or at least without camera,bluetooth and so on.

It's sad.. Because the HOS is a really good phone.
Even the HTC Incredible S (a device like us) got a really good working CM10.2 (only a few small bugs), while this device is legacy for 2 years. So with smart developpers everything is possible.

CyanogenMod sayd that all the devices that received the CM10.2 will receive the CM11...what do You think about that?
Sorry for my bad english

There's no way that we wont get cm11 update. Our phone will off-course get cm11 update. becouse they say that Android KitKat will support even low-end phones. so why can't we have that. it's just a matter of time.
That sounds great,
I hope KitKat wil keep my phone alive.
Because maybe i will buy a Nexus 5. If 4.4 works great without bugs (i dont think so) i'll wait.

Not so correct...certainly Android 4.4 can run faster on our device, but without sources and drivers this isn't enough...

Sorry to say that but you certainly dont have any clue how the whole process works. Its not like Windows which supports "every" processor and PC configuration today.
Anybody knows when they'll release 4.4? It's been a while now, event there's already some roms

See my threat in the development section. There is a build, but it got some bugs.
Just look at DEV for one S. There is 4.4 available It's alpha but it's a progress
The CM11 in the DEV section which is marked as a beta actually works pretty good. Been using it for a few days now and worked better than most 4.3 rom's I tried in the past.
It will come
Yes it will come in the near future.

I tried the unofficial version and it runs smoothly already. Although there are some reboots from time to time...
I also tried the unofficial CM11 and it's for the most part pretty stable (ville C2). I had a few issues but nothing that made day to day use impossible.
I've since rolled back to Venom because I like Sense and the CM11 isn't tweakable enough for my liking just yet.
Regarding the Android 4.4 and older devices, 4.4 uses less system resources and memory than previous versions, this is not to support older devices (it still needs fairly modern architecture) but to let modern devices run faster (if you look how much of your RAM and battery life is used up by default android processes in Jellybean and ICS you'll see what I'm on about).
Moto G is already on latest kit kat with hardly any bloatware and you can root, install custom recovery and can also use gravity box for extra customization/modification which custom ROMs offer so my question is
Why we still need custom ROMS for moto G? Is it just habit of people to try different ROMS(flasholic) or we actually need them?
Personally, stock rom root, and Xposed framework + modules is enough for me, for now

Not to mention the fact that, once you root, you can remove the bloatware. I removed Migrate and Assist with no issue at all.

Yes similar to the note. It's a feature of Omnirom, but is found on other Roms too. We don't have an omnirom port right now, but if you want to try out multiwindow this ROM also has it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620709

interesting..no i was curious i dont think i will use multi wndow on such small screen of moto g as i already own note 2 but never used multiwindow or spen
but i see that these ROMS have plenty of other bugs so you get one thing at the cost of others. I have noticed a strange trend on xda. Those devices who dont need much development for example nexus and those who are close to AOSP get more support of developers while those devices who need development like lg g2 get hardly any attention

That's because the nexus devices are really open and easy to develop with, this attracts developers. The LG G2 is more locked down and it discourages developers from even trying.
I wouldn't worry though, the moto g is just as open as nexus devices and I predict it will get a lot of development in the near future, as well as official cyanogenmod support.

I was going to say the same thing, I think for cm 11 we need a retainer and such

I have no desire to modify my G at this time, or in the near future. It runs perfectly and does everything I want. If down the road it becomes "stale" from lack of update support, then I'll consider it.
Only xposed for me. I had always the feeling that odexed is faster than deodexed anyway.
The guys from ex-themer said this device will be supported with the next major release so then you will have your themes

Maybe the stangest request in xda´s time
As I need an app only compatible with 4.3 and nothing newer to run on my rooted Nexus 5, I desperately need JB for my Nexus. Does this exist or do I need a tech friend (or someone in here to bake a rom for me. Is this even possible?
Kind regards
Some q&a
Q) Is it technically possible?
A) Pretty much anything is technically possible
Q) On a scale of 1-100, how difficult is it?
A) 99.9999
Q) Will anyone ever release JB for N5?
A) Nope
Q) Not even if I ask nicely?
A) Nope
Q) Why not? Why is it so difficult?
A) The N5 was not released with JB. There is no JB Source code compatible with the N5. There are no devices with the same hardware as the N5 on JB. All the drivers and kernel would need to be backported. This is an extremely difficult, if not impossible task. No one will do this.

Have you tried using an Android emulator such as Bluestacks or Andyroid?
What is the app? Maybe someone can suggest an alternative.

LG G2 was released with JB (4.2.2), and that basically is the N5. Not saying that makes things a lot easier.

It doesn't because it doesn't have the same hardware. A few similarities, but not really.

The apps name is CSC Scandihealth HH3 version 8.8.11.7 (works only with Jellybean at this moment)
Looks like something to do with health insurance. Can you just use the mobile site? Or does the app do something special?

Sounds like you need to get on the app developers ass to update his useless JB only drivel
Maybe a stupid question, but have you tried sideloading the app? The reason I ask is because while it may not officially support KK, you may still be able to sideload it. T-Mobile VV for example didn't officially support KK until a few weeks ago (and consequently couldn't be installed through GP), but many people, myself included were still able to sideload it and it worked just fine. If you can't sideload it you'd have better luck pressing the app creator to update his app. No developer is ever going to port an outdated version of Android.
As well as many other i'm used to see on other devices, why is that? Perhaps i've missed something..
Samsung haven't released the source code / drivers or something yet afaik
It's so for lot of other phones, yet you get custom roms inclueing cm13..! So there are only TouchWiz based roms for now, that's it?

Other phones don't use samsungs exynos chip, plus samsung locked the snapdragon's bootloader, so we're double ****ed.
In the end, what's the best and lightest rom to use on this phone today?

Hey mates,
Please hold your horses and hear me out!
Until we get a working Xposed, I would prefer to rock marshmallow for a few modules that I like.
Is there an available ROM or stock image that I can use for that purpose? I know I may have to wait for stable TWRP as well.
Planning to install that on a Verizon pixel, although will likely use it on T-Mobile network.
Thanks!

Pixel came with Android N. I *very* much doubt if anyone will invest time to bring to Android M on it
There will never be Marshmallow for this phone.

This is a true statement. I've never seen a rom for a phone that pre-dates the OS that the phone was released for.
