Discussion Android 8.0 [Oreo]

First of all thanks to all the developers for making so many good rom's for our phone Gt-S758X. I am just curious to know about if our phone is going to have android 8.0 Which google releasing on may 2017 Maybe. So is our phone is capable of getting android Oreo?
Thanx for reading the post

Reserved

maybe yes bro
when source release , our dev will work on it

WeW finally someone replied. And i know when you're with us. this device gonna get every possible android ROM. well currently waiting for your yunos ROM @1111111111111111111111

dev here
no.

Why? ;_; I know our phone architecture is bit old but if we can get naught then why not oreo?

no one maintain it, it get harder and harder to get things work properly, i'm started develop for it since cm11 but stopped since cm13 because of compatibility issue with webview, it's currently maintained by ishant but he told me he will stop at N since it's getting unstable and more random bugs

Thanx Mate for your contributions for this device i really appreciate your work and your roms' ^-^ Maybe @DodoGTA and @1111111111111111111111 will work on this. thanx for all those beautiful ROMs @sandpox

Well.. Most people using ishant and my device tree/patch of CM (including dodogta) to build various of other android custom rom so if ishant refuse to work on the next android version then I don't think it will happen
Make it boot? Probably yes, fully make it functional? No

I'll try to make LOS 15 fully functional

Whats the problem with webview? Is it because of our phones hardware? I think all Lollipop++ ROMs having issues with webview?

@Anonymouspal GPU drivers are the cause of WebView issues

Yes

Yayyy. Our Saviour is here.??

?????

Yes

You're A developer?

@mahmoud_helal isn't a developer

Any dev will release Android "O" for our device?!

No man i'm not a developer
I had tried to learn the programming language but I stopped because of the study and I have a friend who is studying at the College of Computing and Programming and I think he can help

Andriod O for Z5?

Guys, I can't find any Oreo roms for my Z5.
Is it possible to build one with Xperia Open Devices Project?

yes it is but will take you a long time

XperiaDev has not updated the sources to support Oreo.
This means that you will not be able to compile AOSP.

yep, any support official (Sony) or "unofficial" (SonyXperiaDev) got abandoned,
so community needs to step in ...
There could be a way to get the phone part, etc. working from what I read (sonyxperiadev)
HOWEVER that would leave out the camera from the equation (something similar is currently happening for the M4 Aqua where burtcubbins is porting the device to 4.4 kernel)

So the thing is:
if anyone ported the device to the 4.4 kernel (which includes "legacy" gpu driver support) we would have all functionality, except camera
and probably a blazing fast phone + much extended AOSP & update support (including Android 8.0 and 8.1 and perhaps beyond)
Anyone has interest to work on it ?

How about No?
I was part of the stock based bringup for a reason. That reason was to never ever touch the SODP Kernel along with the Z5 ever again.
So the answer is No.
Absolutely Not.
No.

@Myself5 I understand you dont want to help because you have done a lot but ocasiaonly peaks and tests or edits would not hurt would it and to any developer reading this please just try

even the other devs (seemingly ?) aren't really sure what commits are needed to get the full/enhanced functionality - the basics might be there but perhaps something's missing
in any case the repo is at: https://github.com/sony-msm8994
I'm right now not interested in working on Oreo or any other matter,
I've flashed to Marshmallow again on the Z5 and do some investigation related to battery consumption and others there.
Currently not much time for flash-testing and ROM development.
I remember having seen kernels with commit changes from Nougat to Oreo but not sure which exact kernels those were,
bullhead, angler , oneplus2 - some of those must have been

We really want you guys to do it. Oreo port would be a beast of ROM <3

Not having the updated kernel sources (probably) shouldn't be a problem
since we can (attempt to) port the Oreo ROM from Xperia X and add the missing kernel changes from the Xperia X device (kernel diff)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-x/development/ub-xgen-rom-1-0-5-xperia-x-t3778738
HOWEVER
after reading the following:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-x/help/upgrade-via-ota-to-oreo-terrible-t3754928
it's rather pointless to try anything related to porting or updating to a higher Android version:
best battery for now (at least in my experience) use a modded Nougat or Marshmallow ROM with Stock kernel + Stock kernel modules,
that'll get you the best battery runtime when e.g. listening to Music, browsing, etc.
Also: I've done countless passes of different kernel releases and each time as soon as security updates, enhanced performance, etc. is added to the picture at some point (couldn't pinpoint exactly how or why, I suspect it's somehow perhaps looping inside the kernel) it miraculously starts to drain like it had a 4000 mAh battery
- this is ridiculous !
There simply isn't much potential to be gained in this device ( /me peers at the Note 3 and its improvements over time ... /sigh )

hi @zacharias.maladroit so is there still development for the z5 oreo rom or is there no point? I will try port that rom for xperia z5 just like i did for z3+ because believe it or not it actually works and i wll see how it goes
---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------
also are you developers already trying to copy to the z5 cos if so it would be appreciated as i am a noob and just discovered the files are a lot different so now i need to actually learn

Not that I'm aware of, just noticed the similarities in hardware between the X and Z5, Z5 series and did a superficial quick comparison
So not sure if others are currently working on it ...

[CHAT] HD10 (2017) - custom ROM brainstorming:

With HD10 (2017) unlock/TWRP available - link (thanks to @k4y0z!!!), the next natural question is a custom ROM. The subject may turn out to be slightly trickier than what appears at first sight.
Let's have a discussion thread to brainstorm on this and not wonder off-topic in other places.
I had seen @DragonFire1024 & @Rortiz2 tried to work on that, so feel free to chime in as necessary.
What we have:
HD10 (2017) chipset - MT8173 (2+2 cores), there is an beefier brother to it, MT8176 (2+4 cores). For most practical purposes both chipsets seem almost identical software-wise.
MT8173 was introduced in March 2015 (time of Lollipop domination - Android 5). MT8176 was introduced in October 2016 (getting toward Nougat - Android 7).
The efforts up to date on a custom ROM for this chipset appear to be by @Goayandi, who is still active on XDA, so his work could be used a starting point. I believe @Goayandi was working on Android 7 (Nougat). Here are some of the original links:
XDA : Mediatek MT8173 & MT8176 development
Reddit: Mediatek MT8173 & MT8176 development
Stuff from Amazon for MT8173 (both HD10 2017 and FireTV2) is Lollipop-vintage (Android 5), other devices with these chipsets seem to have reached Nougat (Android 7). It does not appear that there is any known MT8173/MT8176 device with Android 8, or 9 (or is there?). It seems that @diplomatic has an Asus like this with Nougat.
At the moment, it feels a a Nougat custom ROM might be the ceiling for the device, given the difficulties of finding proprietary pieces for MTK chipsets to get Android 8 or 9 going. Now, even Android 7 is still a bit of a challenge, given limited prior success.
More thoughts/ideas? Feel free to fill this thread with random thoughts as much as you want - that's what it's for!!!

I'm really looking forward to an AOSP experience on this tablet, to be honest. Can't wait to see what they come up with!

As long as I can set up everything properly I'm ready to go. I've managed to get past script issues I think. I can get it to flash and it boots to the orange fire logo and sits for eternity. This was the same result pre and post TWRP. So at this point it's probably the installation and improper setup of the tree and files. If someone can point me to a guide or give me instructions on how to add support to my AOSP working directory, that would be great. This bit of the leg work is hard as there really aren't any guides that are detailed enough or that work anymore.
Secondly, I think if we are going to use a kernel, we either use the 7.0 source, or just use the kit I have to build our own. Amazon cherry picked the crap out of the kernel practically to the bare bones, so I think expanding from it is just a waste of time, especially since we have the kit that does a lot of the work for us, including providing signatures and the tools to sign etc.

I wouldn't mind even if the best ROM available is a 6.0 Marshmallow one. Anything that gives AOSP on a stable base for the Fire HD10 is going to be awesome.

So did you end up successfully unbricking your device?
I did share working amazon kernel sources in the HD-10 Unlock thread.
They worked well in my tree to compile TWRP.

Sorry for being out of the loop - were those kernel sources for Lollipop? Or does it even matter at all - meaning they would be good to go with newer Android versions as well.
Could you link to those posts in here?

They will likely need some patches to work with newer versions, but it's a good start I'd say.
It's the most recent version amazon has published.

I am working on it as we speak. I downloaded the zip from the second post in this thread, 1.1. extracted and ran sudo ./bootrom-step.sh. said it can't find build/payload directory it doesn't exist. So I assume I use that folder from the other unbricking thread copy it to yours? Assuming its a yes to that question, I keep getting the serial port errors. I also had to delete a setting in udev (this was my own addition to it) and rebooted PC. Now I am having a cigarette. When I do it again, if I still get serial port errors, time to try each of the 8 or 10 other ports on the PC.

Hi bibikalka,
Very good idea this thread.
What you can do, is to port a port a ROM of another MT8173 tablet to the FIRE HD10 2017.
This works and I have tested it on my BQ Aquaris M8 (MT8163) it has a similar MTK so I guess it will work. I have ported for example a ROM of an asus zenpad that uses MT8163 and at least the rom boots.
BTW: Oreo on MT8176: https://www.xda-developers.com/alldocube-x-10-5-inch-android-8-1-oreo/

But these aren't amazon sources are they?
They probably are missing some drivers then.
But if they are for mt8173 they could be used as a source to patch the amazon-sources.

Excellent find! Here is a review link:

Alldocube X kind of has 2x of everything compared to HD10 2017, but at 2x price I wonder how fast Oreo would be on HD10 and if 2Gb of RAM would cut it. But this is definitely the device to copy if one wants latest and greatest!

Alright, we have both an eager developer, and a tester!!! Just remember, avoid bricking !
Very recently (March 2019) @wangyiling seems to have put together a LineageOS 15.1 ROM for MT8173/8176 - link, so hopefully we can re-purpose that for HD10. It's great to have an active developer elsewhere looking at the same thing!
It feels that if there is at least something that boots the kernel, it'd be a huge step forward.

If my testing on ROMs caused my brick, we have to be careful. I've been testing and flashing test ROMs for months now and never bricked like this. I think I may know what happened and if I'm right, I'm not sure what effect if any this will have on flashing a rom. According to the fstab.mt8173 file in the root directory, the partitions we flash for a rom, aren't part of the EMMC: data, system, cache are all ext4. All other partitions are however EMMC. So if I recall correctly, I did list the system as EMMC in the build script, but did intend to remove it. I made a last minute adjustment to the script and didn't change that part though.

AOSP ROM TEST 1 (suez)
Ok guys so here's the first test for the AOSP ROM.
First of all, I am not responsible for bricked devices. It is you who decides to try the ROM without knowing if it will work because it is a TEST.
DOWNLOAD: Removed
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
- Boot TWRP
- Make NANDROID BACKUP
- Make wipes
- Format data
- Install ROM
- Reboot
Please. If the installation fails, send the errors and if the ROM starts, comment on the bugs.

I don't know if unmodified gsi will work for us, as treble requirements have been changed since our phone shipped. May be possible to modify but that is for smarter people than me. Google is apparently doing beta program again probably starting with beta 3 so maybe better to wait for that

Thanks anyway, can you say something when it will be usable :fingers-crossed:

Sure

Our devices is dead??? No more rom support?

Hi, since Xiaomi decided to depreciate rom support for our mi4c, everyday i try to find a replacement firmware. But here is what i found: official lineage removed mi4c since april, last rom is 0209 because they no longer support 14.1 version. AICP lastest version is 2702, no longer update. There're many unofficial roms on 4pda, but all of them now have their support ended because the devs move to new devices. There's only Mokee that support nightly 9.0 and release 8.1 version everyday and monthly. I try to find something like "mi4c treble" but no hope, the repository is created but empty, not like mi4 that has unofficial treble support. Maybe i need to buy a new phone? But my phone is still in good condition with no problem so far... :crying::crying::crying:

Yeah, sad but true. I also gave up on new rom, so i still use the 15.1 LineageOS one (20180810). Good rom, no problems here, but wouldnt mind some security updates.
The phone works nicely though and apart from battery lasting a day, i dont see any problems. I guess we will have to move to new phone if we want to see some updates rom.

I resized device partition table in order to support android treble.
I will make custom recovery image which is support android treble.
Maybe our device is ready to support android treble by then
added
I made treble-enabled recovery image now and it works well.
I will release the solution soon.

Is that the one without vibration support?

https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/wiki/en/wikis/device/libra/install
it's a fork of LineageOS, still being updated
haven't tested it yet

This is update of lineage-16.0.

Why is this not on this forum, and where is the development thread being discussed? Are there any problems with it? Anyone tested it?

/e/ is a fork of lineage and based on lineage 14.1 for our phone, with microg pre installed. They use a different default launcher, bliss
It works well and is easy to tweak if we dont like the launcher or default apps.
Anyway since our phone is no longer maintained i've decided to build lineage 14.1 for myself.
I'll do it once or twice a month when there are updates.
If anyone need it check here :

Mokee have a good android 9 ROM, been using it for months and no issues:
https://download.mokeedev.com/libra.html

Also WJXXBSH recently published new Lineage 16 and even 17! https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=299149
I have not tried it yet, but at least WJXXBSH is keeping our device live.

how about lineage 16 from havoic 3.1 (https://sourceforge.net/projects/havoc-os/files/libra/)
At least it work fine for me on mi4c
