CM 14 - Honor 6, 6 Plus Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Since the huwaei in not officially supported honor 6. They stuck at marshmallow. plzz someone build CM14 for honor 6. Honor 4x has a low hardware as compared to honor 6 still honor 4x got CM14 support. in last 2 year no one ported custom rom for honor 6.

Without complete source is impossible to build good custom rom.
If you want you can try the Mate 7 MM AOSP, this works on Honor 6

"please build CM14"... why won't you try to do it yourself, if it's so easy? You should read the other topics, Google some stuff, or even use common sense before making such useless topics. Like CX&== says, the most we can get right now is Marshmallow AOSP (not CM). Anything better would require Huawei to make a custom ROM for us, which is never going to happen.
If you actually knew what you were writing about, you would notice that 4X has a Snapdragon processor, which explains why it has custom ROMs support.

I've already posted the Full Source including Kernel Source.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-6/development/h60-mm-emui4-source-t3447862
and still no one wants to do it.

Maybe because the device is not popular...

better you post requests in q and a section bro..

Is it possible to flash custom rom on Mate 8?

Hello, I am wondering If its possible to make custom rom (aosp) working on Mate 8? I read, that its not possible coz of Kirin processor. So how is it? Will be this phone supported with cyanogen for expample?
well, both the kernel and the recovery sources have been made public by huawei, so theres already a good baseline for ya... lets see how the devs will treat the mate 8 in the long run

Lineage OS for Huawei Mate 9?

EMUI is MIUI, just "copy my homework and change it a lil bit". I love MIUI but clean/stock Android, like on my OnePlus 3T is the best.
Whats about Lineage OS and Huawei/Kirin device, like on the Mate 9? The same problem like on Exynos devices?
Regards
Didnt know emui was miui

We couldn't​ do anything, cause lack of kernel sources.

Guess the main problem is the unpublished kernel and missing device trees.
it took months to unofficially​ port lineage for the p9 lite. Meticulous did it by reverse engineering because he earned a sponsored device for his awards. Maybe he would do it here too but the mate 9 is very expensive compared to the p9 lite.
But just the fact our mate is running a Kirin doesn't shoot it out. P9 series are running on Kirin too

I use MIUI before Huawei even build devices. It's just the old MIUI, what you get on EMUI.

I saw a lot phones without kernel source but with almost perfect port. Is there more than kernel source?

What do you mean by 'device trees' ?
There is a buggy LineageOS 14.1 image for Honor 8 and they also don't have 4.x kernel sources.
Has somebody tried to boot the HiKey960 4.4 kernel to test the core CPU support ?
It is useless for the phone operation, but will be a good starting point for kernel development.
Closed-source firmware blobs at https://github.com/96boards-hikey/tools-images-hikey960 with very high probability were taken from the Mate 9 codebase.
So it is possible but it's really hard to port it?

MTK Nikel nougat development

seems there is work being done on android nougat in miui for the nikel if im not mistaking ( miui V8.5.2.0.MBFCNED )
link to official thread: http://en.miui.com/thread-645476-1-1.html
Nope. This was on marshmallow
Tapatalk - Redmi Note 4 MKT
crap.. read this in changelog
"System
New - A smarter and more efficient CPU allocation strategy (04-05)
New - Android N update (06-01)"
thought it was on android N
since i dont use miui im not familiar with it from what i understood and probably im wrong.. i thought N updates werent just on coming miui 9 but also on 8.x builds..
too bad.. hope there is a good future for this great phone with updates
Fake changelog.
Read comments there
Someone updated but still MM
Tapatalk - Redmi Note 4 MKT
That update got suspended later. And its going to be suspended till August hopefully. They are planning a huge upgrade for a number of devices. Its gonna be at least MIUI 9 if not Nuget for RN4-MTK.

I'd say MIUI 9 but not nougat based (for our RN4 MTK at least). Remember Xiaomi have a tendency to update with their MIUI version/features but not update the base android version, especially likely to be the case for our MTK device since Mediatek are bad at releasing sources.
what about the threads that are floating around claiming to be the mtk x20 kernel sources for the rn4? havent really delved in, they arent released yet?
i got this phone mainly for its benchmark performance price ratio but also because i had the expectation it would have better development since its more popular than my last..
seems sad that the SD with its lesser tech has so much support and MTK seem unhelpful so were stuck on old firmwares...

I don't think we have the necessary files we need ie drivers specifically for the note 4 mtk hardware, hence the limited development. Snapdragon devices are always supported better by devs due to qualcom sharing all their sources.
It's still great phone for the money with lots of great features. If you're looking for rom development, snapdragon is the way to go though.

You probably want to start at the below thread about unlocking your boot loader and installing twrp etc. There's plenty of guides on XDA, and there's a noob Q&A thread in the Q&A section which is best to check out also and ask any questions rather than this development section.

Someone please make Lineage OS for the Mate 9?

We have the source code now:
http://consumer.huawei.com/en/openso...e=10&curPage=1
Can someone please port Lineage OS to the Mate 9? I will buy them a coffee.

beer!! from me
me too.or can produce mokee
Please, somebody can help us? We will need a reverse engineer for the drivers to port and somebody from Lineage crew.
AFAIK, the problem with the published source code by Huawei is that the camera does not work.

Can you provide the technical details on the error messages ?
There is a LineageOS image for Honor8 (which has problems with random crashes) but the actual kernel interface differences between Honor8 and Mate9 are minimal.
Sorry I don't know the details but there has been some discussion in this thread:

The camera itself works, it's when you take a picture that the image doesn't save.
I narrowed it down to a sqlite error when trying to save:
Code:
06-09 12:00:45.188 E/SQLiteDatabase(26762): android.database.sqlite.SQLiteConstraintException: UNIQUE constraint failed: gallery_media._data (Sqlite code 2067), (OS error - 2:No such file or directory)
I'm not sure how to fix that actually.
gallery_media._data seems to have a dot too many imo, but maybe it's supposed to be that way.
I never tried with another camera app, to check if it's just stock that doesn't work.
Edit: This can apparently mean 2 things, either the db is not read/write or the ID (gallery_media._data) already exists.
Edit 2: Actually, this error no longer exists on B185.
Google Camera works fine. It's just Huawei's camera app that doesn't work correctly.
Then, if the kernel works, what are the general steps to start working on a Mate 9 Lineage port?
If the kernel interface is similar to that of Honor 8, shouldn't the Honor 8 Lineage sources be the base for a Mate 9 port?

Apparently the unofficial lineage for Honor 8 uses stock honor 8 kernel.
I'm syncing now, might take a while.
Hopefully we just need to edit the Honor 8 sources for Mate 9.

I hope so!
It seems like we need some serious talent to get a proper rom ported.
I started messing around with building the kernel but, given my lack of experience, I wouldn't expect much.

There are few more devs here maybe you should unite. Don't give up just yet.

I've only just started. I changed everything in devices, vendor left now. But that's just replacing Honor 8 text with Mate 9 text.
Got to replace files too.
I'm not a dev, I'm more a fixer guy xD
I'm not a dev, but I have programming experience and am willing to help since I'm now a Mate 9 user.
So guys, anyone set a team to work on this?

Will we ever get open sources from Huawei for Oreo?

Hey all. Just wondering if anyone knows or thinks we will ever get open sources from Huawei for Oreo for the mate 9?
DUK source for Oreo kernel works fine on Mate 9.

The kernel source for Honor 8 Pro can be compiled and used on Mate 9.
It doesn't really work on Honor 8 Pro, Bluetooth and WiFi breaks. But on Mate 9 it's fine
Is anyone port a Los 15 or RR rom? Disillusioned with this device in terms of development. It has good hardware and battery. Treble is unstable. It was my first Huawei device and the last one. I've always had custom roms. Mate9 was the first device to keep the stock rom for more than a year and so will follow

That's good to know... May I ask, what software, etc would I need to download to compile / build the ROMs? Also is it better to build ROMs running a Linux environment? If so, which is best Linux to get?

I hear ya bud... It's been my first and only huawei device so far too.
I'm thinking about doing it, as long as I have no big issues in learning to build / compile ROMs.
You got the wrong device for that. You have to do everything from scratch. To start you have to build device tree.
