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

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.
So I just read some stuff about Treble and how it could speed up ROM development on devices that support it. Can anyone here who knows more about the subject comment on getting support to the Honor 8?

If I got it right, it needs Android Oreo official support.
Yep, Treble support depends on manufacturer. However, we first need Oreo update in order to check if Treble is supported on H8. And yes, custom ROM development will speed up. There have been pretty stable and almost bugless ROMs for Huawei devices (with no 60 fps bug, he composition, full camera support) which have Treble Support with the latest Oreo update.
Honor 8 not supported by project treble

I dont think Honor 8 will receive Oreo update
I hope it gets updated :crying: if not honor can kma.
Could I use the beta version? I don't think they will release oreo for honor 8. What about changing from L09 to AL00? Then I will need only TWRP with Oreo support in order to flash Treble Roms. I hope that only emui is unstable on this device. Even if the beta is unstable, could the vendor part be stable?
I think that the beta firmware for Honor 8 does support treble.
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).
Anyone working on official custom builds of LOS or RROS for honor 8(frd)? emui sucks.
They have unofficial ones (though the battery life sucks on both). I would recommend AOSPA (paranoid android) which I am currently using.
Wait until EMUI 8.0 With Oreo and Treble drops, then use a Treble compatible ROM, if you look at the Honor 8 Pro forums, they already use a Treble ROM which is near perfect. Should be the same for us then just a little more patience.

I don't have doubts, Honor France and Honor Poland both said that the Honor 8 will get EMUI 8.0, they also mentioned that "One does not go with the other" in other meaning "EMUI 8.0 doesn't work without Oreo" which means that EMUI 8.0 will also include Oreo. If it was only a feature update/ported features, they would have called it EMUI 5.2 like they did before with EMUI 5.0.1.
Also all Huawei/Honor phone get Treble alongside Oreo since they already use their own vendor partition which means they don't have to reformat the device (which COULD result into a brick, thats why OnePlus and Nokia won't include Treble on the Oreo updates).

Thanks for information bro, I'll wait for Oreo then. The last option is I'll have to walk to Poland ?
Not so far
Why Developers stopped developing/Updating Custom roms for Honor 8??
We are really sad..
It is because they are waiting for EMUI 8 to come, which will likely bring Treble support.
Wait for may, it will bring Oreo with Treble.)
