Oreo - Mission impossible? [8.1.0_r46][6Oct2018] OmniROM-8.1

Oreo - Mission impossible?
I started studying "O" in early August. All I got were the O-preview3 factory images for qcom and tegra devices which I don't have. Built it out and made it boot wouldn't be too hard but everything seemed different. It took me some time to figure out the flow of the new frameworks. At that time, only the RIL and Graphics sources were really "O". The most devastated situation would be the RIL. Seemed dead end at that time. That was the first time I feel impossible. The source from MTK's RIL made things even worse. All the .c functions are buried inside prebuilt static libraries. Frankly, up to this moment, I'm still not fully understand the workflow of MTK's RIL...
While I was struggling with the RIL, "O" - Oreo was launched. The most helpful info. were also released in source.android.com. Sadly, I can't access this website no more... Never take it for granted for anything. You can loose anything/anyone for no reason. The sources were then completed and took me some times to made it boot "again".
Eventually, I can make the RIL almost fully working recently. Yes!:victory: All I can say is, we are lucky. Our RIL blobs only experience a few crashes which I can managed. I had tried five or six sets of blobs for different MTK chips. Each had different crashes so there is no guarantee that all MTK devices might work...
Last week, I finally figure out how to made the camera work. Seems not "impossible" now so I start this new thread.
I can't start a DevDB now. The response from XDA official is "They can't think of obvious reason". Anyway, I pay for ad-free and still the status shows connection to axx.amazon-adsystem.com. It just hang there for minutes (until timeout I suppose). However, I can start a normal thread (after minutes of delay) and that's not a problem to me. I already learnt to live with so many obstructions now. :cyclops:
There were just too many distractions and ridiculous people out there. I don't want to waste time arguing so I would make it short this time. I rather spend time on something I'm good at.
For those who want help, no matter its ROM related or about development, please don't use PM. There are many limitations with PM. Do it formally. Start a thread in Q/A or post with all the details you can get (log, kmsg, screenshot, etc.). It's no harm for more opinions. Hiding in the dark doesn't help.
Current Status
KERNEL
Patch: Binder and sdcardfs update are required and essential for Oreo.
See commits in my github for detail
AUDIO
Recording: Working
Playback: Working
Patch: Load a copy of the struct instead of the pointer to address.
BLUETOOTH
Working
Issue: Workflow issue in BTIF driver.
Patch: New driver and HAL build from source.
CAMERA
Flash/Torch: Working
Capture: Working
Issue: User handle is required in GetMemory. MTK blobs return null.
Patch: Save a copy of the user handle. Don't know if other devices might work or not. It's better to rebuild a few blobs but I don't have the source for my device...
Issue: Oreo use a ring buffer of native_handles and no more ANativeWindowBuffer.
Patch: A wrapper is required for the libcam.client. (The better way would be rebuild it but again no source...)
HDR: Working with Snap in LOS-15.1
Video recording: Working
Issue: Oreo doesn't support GRALLOC (or I don't know how). The old HAL1 implementation doesn't work too.
In short, need to find a way for the metadata that our old blobs can handled.
Patch:
1. Add libcamera_parameters_mtk for the MTK extra parameters
2. Add another mode to handle Gralloc in stragefright.
3. Patch the OMXNode to handle Gralloc mode.
4. patch the OMXClient to use mediaserver
5. Patch the hardware interface to handle Gralloc Metadata and work with the new OMX interface.
DISPLAY/TOUCH SCREEN
DT2W: Working
FM RADIO
Working
GPS
AGPS: Working
GPS & BEIDOU: Working
GLONASS: Enabled by default
GRAPHIS

Issue: Android platform changed
Patch: A simple patch in libgui_ext (might use shim if timestamp proved no use)
OpenGL: Working
LED
Notifications: Working
Charging: Working
Low power: Not Working
See Post #806 for detail. Haven't study why --pending
MEDIA
Video Playback: Working
Hardware decoder: Working
Issue: crashed
Patch: A small patch in minijail use Asan.
POWER
Power off charging: Working
RIL
Phone calls: Working
Mobile Data: Working
SMS: Working
Dual SIM: Working
Issue: Completely new approach in Oreo with interface/services. No more sockets. AND all .c libraries are proprietaries.
Patches:
1. Replace the MTK RIL daemon with AOSP patching for MTK
2. Wrap (eventually replaced) the libril from MTK with AOSP patching for MTK
3. Patch the RIL interface/service to work with the MTK vendor library.
Some more detail can be found in post #65 and post #806

Huge respect.

Subscribed to this thread. I am unable to provide any help for now and will start using the Oreo build as soon as it can do the basic stuff for daily use (despite the bugs).
I appreciate all your efforts bro. Many people are reading you. When you release something that can be a buggy daily version I can start giving feedback. For now I will just read because my K3 is my only device.

Huge respect.
bugs-deep sleep mode,proximite-Vanillamusic not work,JetAudio-work

Any Mission is possible with you :laugh:

Thank You for developing. Please provide us a stable rom ASAP

Thanks
Daniel, you're one of the hardest working developers I've ever encountered. Many would perceive this device as a dead device but you're the one who gives a new life to this, keep up your amazing work and if you need anything we're all here for you.

@daniel_hk
The carbon is SICK man!
I can report that apart from the known issues, there's:
1. Unable to install apps when rooted. Solved by flashing magisk in TWRP, then clearing Data, Cache and Dalvik. Also dirty flashing from nougat will recovery-loop your phone!! . Always clean flash your rom guys
2. Some mp4s can be played yet some shows "can't play this video" error. I can't be sure whether it's the decoder or just the mp4 s.
3. All tried mp3s can be played only after flashing the codec you provided here :silly:
4. Camera can perform photo taking and very poor video recording using 3rd party apps. Maybe the handling of the 3rd party apps enabled them to connect to the sensor.
5. After flashing GApps, there are two Android Shared Library 1 as system apps . No force close or conflict encountered though.
6. Battery drain just a little too fast. Didn't encounter that before with android 7 but maybe it's the kernel or Oreo policies itself.
7. Proximity sensor is nonexistent. Used sensor box to check with no avail. It said that the phone's hardware does not support the sensor.
8. Used google camera's HDR+ feature with successfull result, sort of. Snap and stock camera freezes right after snapping HDR with no avail.
I made this post to help those who are trying to learn and appreciate Oreo.
I'm new to this community. Hope to help as best as I can. Overall, the rom is enough for me as daily drive for now :good:. If I find anything more I'll be sure to share them here. Maybe just need to figure out the deep sleep bug for now.

How to install this rom. can anyone pls tell me the procedure how to install this rom, so that i don't find my phone in bootloop.

Why Oero, not Oreo? ?

You should rather go to @daniel_hk 's thread for Nougat. He said if you aren't familiar with the procedure, you aren't ready for this and I wouldn't recommend trying to install it if you are afraid of breaking your phone.

First I notice an error in my phone (second revision), the mobile network falls at every moment (both 4g and 3g).

For getting it working right, i had to remove the Sim-Card during the first bootup. Otherwise it gets stuck on the PIN-Input.
This just occurs after the installation of the GApps.
(I tried first to get ROOT with SuperSU 2.82 and 2.79. This does not work. Only magisk worked fine (v14.5 beta)).
When i try to reboot my device with the Pop-Up Shutdownmenu, it just gets stuck and i have to turn down my device with long-pressing the shutdownbutton.

Wonderful upgrade Oreo 8.0.0 + open gapps pico + magisk 14.0, after wipe and format f2fs cache and data. Metal Rev1 Oct 2016 much faster now!
Small issue so far running for 3 days : unable to connect LTE at boot. I have to connect sequentially 3G first then LTE each time data connexion is lost.
This issue has been reported earlier with 7.1.1 upgrade

https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70780267&postcount=287
Important : No LTE issue with stock ROM (December 2016) and Eragon (October 2016).
Similar issue has been reported with Jiayu S3 Oreo 8.0.0 and earlier 7.1.2

[Stable] Build [8.1.0] 20180419
First Oreo Release
Patch Level: April 5, 2018
Kernel: 3.18.105

Can' Install the ROM
Hey, I have a U13 running madOS 7.1.2, and when I tried to install 8.1.0 I got an error on TWRP: error status 7
How do I procede to get 8.1 on U13?

Does anyone know - the drivers and libraries from Nougat fit Oreo?
Wanna port this ROM to ZTE Blade V7, kernel is just very similar (3.18.19 on Blade V7 vs 3.18.105 on U13)

IR Remote
Works great, only thing missing is IR Remote app. Tried a few from play store but none of those work ...
Anyone managed to make it work ?

Please port madOS Oreo rom for Meizu M2 Note MT6753 (2/16) FlymeOS LP.

Install latest TWRP (https://github.com/samsungexynos7870/android_device_samsung_j7velte/releases )not orange fox recovery and and then install this rom.

One of the best roms. You can use universal7870_repartitioner To decrease the size of the system and increase the user date?

download link not working, access denied

bluetooth is working or not

Hello I want to download the YumiOS ROM, but I get a warning "You need access" in google drive it seems that the links are not shared, you have to activate "Link sharing on" I hope you solve it, thanks. ✌

Access deny

Alright, I was busy and not being able to use XDA for a while.
Download links for YumiOS are all unavailable, and returning "request access to continue" since Feb. It's because Google had disabled my account used for storing YumiOS files for downloads. This made me lost around 900GB of data stored inside there. It was a big loss...
Development of YumiOS had been stopped already for months, and I've no point of doing it for a bad community like this anymore.
So...
YumiOS is now EOL. This means no more updates, further support for it. My Telegram channel/group had been sold to another developer, hopefully he will work better.
Let's wish him luck, and I want to say thank you for using YumiOS!
Goodbye, and I'll see you around.

Are there future updates planned for this version? Especially fixes e.g. regarding the Bluetooth call issue?
I'm looking for a new small (not tiny) phone and this is one of the best candidates.

Hi,
At first - many thanks for the crDroid made for a40, superb!
There is a question I have - what about the gapps..?
Nevertheless which gapps package I install, the phone gets into the bootloop (not rooted or rooted - this is not a matter)
I've tried a following:
FlameGApps-11.0-basic-arm64-20210404-BETA.zip (90.8MB)
open_gapps-arm64-11.0-nano-20200911-UNOFFICIAL.zip (180MB)
NikGapps-omni-arm64-11-20210130-signed.zip (308MB)
..in twrp or shrp seemingly installed with a success, but after a reboot - this is a spectacular EoL and I need to do all things from the scratch.
Or maybe there is sth more to do in prior to install gApps?

..in twrp or shrp seemingly installed with a success, but after a reboot - this is a spectacular EoL and I need to do all things from the scratch.
Or maybe there is sth more to do in prior to install gApps?

hi guys! auto brightness working on this Rom?

Tried, auto brightness and double tap to wake are broken, recent button crash sometimes.

Upon unlocking the screen, a red box appears all over the screen. (crDroid 7.6 & last FlameGapps Version)

Nice , clean and really smooth , exactly what I wanted. Thanks!
