I don't think you can downgrade to Nougat because OnePlus 6 was Oreo in-box (idk actual word).
If via Treble, idk because Treble suppose works starting on Oreo to latest. ?

It just doesn't make sense to have it. Use android emulator for testing an app if that's the case.
If there are zer0 users with Oreo with OP6 what's the point of testing?

It's not about op6. It's the only available device to root and mess with. But the app we are testing is crashing in nougat.
Thanks for the help anyways

If it's not about the device, just emulate Android with your computer. Btw, you posted in the wrong section.

Does anyone know or have any insights about whether Cyanogenmod ROM will be available in the near future for Honor 8 or not? I'm really looking forward to see an AOSP ROM for this devices

It's not the same. From my experience with Kirin platforms, AOSP is easier to get working (since EMUI is based on it).
About the 'near future', no idea, if you want me to talk from my experience, I've been sending Huawei emails since December and I am still waiting lol.
Relax, explore the device, try not to scratch it and wait for the roms.
According to @svetius Huawei is close to releasing the kernel code. It's not everything needed for CM13, but it's a place to start. I'm hoping they are going to provide more than just the kernel, and they provide a device tree and vendor proprietary files as well. I know I'll be trying my hand at building cm13 as the source files are released.

Is there even a difference? Try to find a difference between the FRD-L09 kernel and the FRD-L04 one.
And no, it won't speed up rom development or whatever, we've discussed about that countless times.

Not sure what parts of EMUI is giving you pain, but if it's just the UI you could just change to Nova Launcher or another Launcher for now. I've been using Nova-Launcher since the moment I got it and I think it works great.

Does this phone really need cm? I don't personally like emui but the phone is such a powerhouse that I can live with it. Plus I use my phone for aleast three weeks as the manufacturer intended. And I'm leaning more on it than past emui software...

Hello guys,
Simple question, could someone tell me if there exists somewhere a rom in MM for Google Pixel to be able to downgrade my device?
Or maybe it wouldn't be very complicated to port a Nexus 6P rom to the Google Pixel? Any tutorial?
Thanks
Seeing as the device shipped with Android N, not a chance. I could be wrong, but I certainly havent seen it anywhere.

I haven't seen it here either, but it must be feasible even if the Pixel is released under Android N no? Nexus / Pixel smartphones are close to AOSP it should be simpler than with any other device

@ezrexl you are really funny, it's device source not a rom.
There's nothing changed for oreo on the source, we automatically created 8.0 branches for all our repos independent of Oreo support for the devices.

It can't compile, it has nothing changed to work on O and you will need a lot to change (and don't forget a massive kernel update you'll also need).
Have fun working on it, I am not and I won't in future

It looks like Huawei/Honor continues the development of security patches for EMUI 5 - b410 is approved by IMEI and contains August patches, while b412 contains September patches and will probably be approved soon. However, nothing new on the EMUI 8 side of things.
I don't remember how things were with the EMUI 4->5 transition, but the fact that they continue to focus on providing updates only for the old emui doesn't fill me with confidence.
Was 8.0.0.521 an one-off? I hope not.
I think Oreo is an one-off. Infact i returned back to b407
It's really disappointing, because the B521 firnware has some annoying bugs.
To me, the fact that Huawei controls both processor (Kirin) and OS (EMUI), should mean that they would be of the likes of Apple and iOS, or the likes of Google and Pixels: each version of EMUI should be able to be installed on all compatible phones, on launch day. I can't believe they cannot do that, unless their developers' skills are so bad.
This is a lost opportunity, in favour clearly of selling more phones. They envision being better than Apple, without taking the first page of their book: fewer phones, better support.
If that's the case in the end, "so long and thanks for all the fish".

That's nice that it worked for you - however a lot of people didn't want to switch to a custom treble ROM; they just needed a properly updated official OS with security updates.

"LOS - Stability, basic, like AOSP, but with a tad bit more customizability
OmniROM - Both hitting the sweet spot between RR and LOS. NFC.
RR - Really good battery life, customization to the max"
I am using RR coz of the customizations. AFAIK all the roms are usable as daily driver. There might be minor bugs here and there but nothing too big. NFC is only available on Omni. No VoLTE support on any rom. Thats all i can think of right now. Their web has detailed info.
