Is it so hard to make the custom 7.0 rom for this model (porting rom from mate 8, 9, P9 etc). I'm not the developer, but i now the basics. I think that is possible. My previous android phones (SE Xperia X10i, Lenovo K900 and K920) had zero official support, but great custom rooms.

OpenKirin team (https://github.com/OpenKirin) has been working on bringing custom roms to HiSi 3630+ devices, but since the P8Max (DAVince) is a niche device, no one was interested in porting.
You can always reach out to them if you're interested in helping out.
Thanks, but niche device means what?

Very few people have the device because of its immense screen size.

Dear All
I am planning to purchase oppo r7 plus with 4G Rom and 64GB (China Release) and I have some question :
1) Does it work in Saudi Arabia?
2) I can change to any other ROM other than Chinese one.
3) is It a good device .
4) Which is better mate 8 or oppo r7 plus
Thanks
Ali
Dear Ali,
My advise to you is to buy Mate 8 as it has the best CPU in the world which is Kirin 950.
Thanks.

Thank you for reply.
What about if I take oppo r7 plus Chinese release it can work in my country (Saudi Arabia) and if I am not root it i will not have problem
Thanks
Salam Ali,
I think it will work, but if you want to make sure that it will work or not check the "mobile Networks". Rooting the device or not this will not make any issues.
Ali, again my advise to you that don't buy OPPO R7 Plus and go to Mate 8, but if you don't want it you have a lot of devices which are better than R7 Plus such as, Xiaomi Mi 5, ZTE Nubia Z11, and LG G5. You know as for me I will buy Mate 8 from Gitex in Dubai.
Thanks.

I am not sure about you, but I have used many Android devices. From my experience, I have concluded, opensource support is way more important than corporate support. Because, in all my experiences, it is the opensource support that allow my devices to continue to be working and functioning long after the corporate support has stopped. Hence, when I was choosing a new phone, I make sure the phone has AOSP port and opensource community support is well and active. I like Oppo a lot, because their community is very supportive of AOSP. Look at their Project Spectrum for more details. I am a phablet guy, my previous phone was Asus ZenFone6. So going to anything smaller just not what I want, at least for now. Incidentally, after my experience my Asus, I am even more convinced that AOSP is the only way.
Since you are in XDA and looking for advice of which Android phone to get, my suggestion is very simple. You can choose whichever phone you like, as long as it has AOSP port.
Do take note, the CM is available for OppoR7Plus F variant only. So, if you intent to get OppoR7Plus and wants to try CM, then do make sure you get the right phone.

No
Lol
Maybe iOS resembling themes. But "completely iOS" is impossible.
i did once ios for moto and xperia ported from mediatek clone iphones . it just theming the apps and frameware
put since mediatek base is still 4.4 so it cant be ported to 6 or 5.1 .
GD Luck !

No, but try themes
Or can Honor 4c flash any android 7.0 rom?
Dude are you kidding?
Honor has abandoned our device long ago many of the users are even stuck with Kitkat version.(As the MM update is not available through OTA in some regions but manual update possible)
Even similar device P8 lite with 2 years updates guaranteed wont get Nougat official update.
Dont keep hope for Official Nougat update just move on.
If you really wish to have Nougat builds on your device try customs Roms from P8 Lite thread.
PS: Don't bother the devs as the device is not officially supported by them , you can use most of the features but few bugs are present for Nougat builds but MM builds works fine .

Same chipset doesnt mean we can install ROMs vice versa .
There are also some other factors will are required in order to do so.
I have no idea regarding honor 8 and mate 8

Mist , we can port roms from same chipset . If all specs are similar we can flash its roms on one anothers
Yes if specs are same we can but if they arent you have to make some complex ports thats what I meant.
Well , complex part mean u have to edit full framework. Editing many files like even settings dialer system ui . Omg thats harder than building a rom from source
Yes that's what I mean even you do so there won't be guaranteed results.
Yes . There will a list of bugs which cant be fixed.this is why i always use sources to build.
But we have not got complete sources for this device so that option is out of question.
Yeah .. we can even port for a fully working wrong but that will be pretty hard.
Devs like surdu,Xepeleato,olddroid are finding it difficult for this device without sources so its out of my capability.So no hope for me.
Its hard to build a rom without kernel sources. But a rom can be build using prebuild kernel if u may not know.
Before honor released kernel sources , surdu build cm14.1 using stock kernel.

He's a very skilled developer. No wonder he can do that.
Sent from my Honor 8 using XDA Labs
Hi Everyone,
I used to have Honor 6X which was stolen so I switched to Moto G5s Plus. I still miss Honor 6X's camera.
Is there anyway to port Honor 6X's camera app on EMUI 4.1 or 5.0 to be used on all Android devices with Nougat without need or root?
Thanks in Advance!
Sumedh
Not that easy man... 6X camera is based on Kirin kernel sources and Huawei vendor partition, and so it need at least these two to properly work. I don't think it'll ever be possible, neither if Kirin complete sources should ever be released (but much time has passed, and i don't think we'll see those released in future).
when we get oreo 8.1 custom rom for honor 8???
...lower budget mobiles like redmi,moto, leeco le max, lenovo etc already got pixel experience rom,,,
when we get for our honor 8 device
The developers are waiting for EMUI 8 to drop out because it will likely bring treble support. This will make it way easier to make ROMs.
Dont compare SD devices with Kirin one. Is much harder to develop a rom for Kirin. So if you want custom roms, go for SD
There is an Oreo discussion there already in our forum. Ask there, it's been discussed already. https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/honor-8-oreo-discussion-thread-t3735941
