[ROM] Phh-Treble [AOSP 9.0] - Huawei MediaPad M5 Guides, News, & Discussion

With Huawei security concerns in the news recently, I wanted a daily replacement vanilla ROM for EMUI, including TWRP backup (unencrypted data) for my 8.4" SHT-W09.
Phh-Treble by @phhusson is by far the best I've tried so far - everything seems to work including bluetooth - although I've yet to try NFC. I don't pretend to be an expert, everything is at your own risk etc and can probably be done slightly differently, but here's my working method:
1. Start with an unlocked bootloader - achieved by following these instructions by @Appo11on
2. Install ROM using instructions in the first link - Mediapad M5 is arm64, A only and you'll probably need Gapps or Floss
3. Immediately factory reset using stock recovery - I had to flash it back to recovery_ramdisk, as extracted from full stock firmware using HuaweiUpdateExtractor, found in this root guide, also by @Appo11on
4. Flash this TWRP by @schwabe93 using instructions in the root guide above - @Pretoriano80's TWRP wouldn't progress through it's start screen
5. Install Magisk by @topjohnwu (I used v18.0) using TWRP, then boot to system
6. Display is blurry until enabling the workaround in Phh Treble settings - takes a min or 2 to stick
7. Enjoy rooted, encrypted Treble Pie ROM
To remove encryption:
8. Edit vendor/etc/fstab.hi3660 using these instructions by @PPCholic - devices other than SHT-W09 may have a slightly different filename
9. Flash back to stock recovery_ramdisk, factory reset again and boot ROM
10. Follow points 4 - 6 again and enjoy rooted unencrypted Treble Pie ROM
Bye bye EMUI, thanks for the memories!

How is battery life? Is Bluetooth LDAC available?

Battery life seems fine - similar to EMUI, if not slightly better.
I don't have much experience with LDAC, but having switched to it's codec in developer options, there's still decent sound playing in my bluetooth headphones.

OK, will follow your guide and report back.

Can you play Netflix/Amazon Prime/Etc in HD? Or will you be limited to 480?

1080p IPTV streams perfectly & has widevine L3 so should be fine, but I don't use these services so unable to test directly.

Widevine L3 means it won't play Netflix and possibly Amazon Prime Video at HD rates. I'm trying to figure out if HD playback is more important than not having EMUI.

Yar, disappointed! I was hoping it'd have L1 like the OpenKirin ROMs.
*EDIT* By installing this ROM, it will get rid of EMUI.... and then I could install Viper4Android? Correct?

has anyone been able to set up any cloud services with this?
I wonder, how openkirin does their Widevine L1 - trick. I do not want to use netflix with less than HD, as I am paying lots of money for the account ... :-/
Haven't found a way of adding it so far (+ I am no developer of any kind ....)

Do you have a case with a magnetic cover? I'm wondering if the Hall sensor works on this ROM. (Open the cover and it turns on)

Any luck with ldac? This is the only feature I seek in an alternative ROM.

Nope, first I tried to downgrade but did not work. I tried to unlock through FunkyHuawei but they refunded me after 14 days. In the end I returned it and planned to stay with my 2015 Samsung Tab S2 a little longer.

Ah, and since the last update APT X HD also disappeared.

2 offtopic posts related to personal opinions on how much "safe" are other devices compared to others have been removed, please talk about these things on an appropriate thread or simply create your own.
Thanks for understanding!

Very clean rom. For who need, magnetic cover doesn't work and face recognition isn't enabled.

Damn I wish somebody would make a ROM like this for the 10" screen.

Huawei Security Concerns?
Well I guess this thread is only for panic USA Trump user's right? I don't know what all people shout against Huawei...that is an old discussion and now the USA is scary...and apple too.
committed extortion against Germany and Poland. Here is the US this time the asshole, not Huawei.
I have an option for u. Very safe and easy installation.

The hardware in the 8" and 10" tablets are the same I thought?
I would imagine being that this is a "treble" ROM there would be no issue with the difference in screen size, its even the same amount of pixels?
Can anyone confirm if this is working on the 10" version?

OK, mediapad M5 forum is officially dead....

This trick is known. Use the pixelify module and you have unlimited upload on stock

Wrong! I tried flashing it and it says that it has unlimited storage, then asks if I want original quality on my drive storage or high quality
I had similar deal when i got lg g4 unlimited or many gb like 100 gb i dont remember, for 2 years. And when that pass you end up with blocked accaunt.
It is buy space or revert all photos from original quality to gain space...
Pocophone main camera is 12MP and google hi quality is 16MP, so i dont see the point?

Is the developer preview daily driver material or is it rather buggy anyone who's used it for at least a day want to give their opinions

Yes it is. I have not had a single issue with it. After sideloading the OTA, there was a message about registering my sim. My guess would be it was looking for an esim, which I don't have, but after that my sim was recognized and all has been running smoothly.
works fine for me, the only issue I've found is with GooglePay, where it doesn't allow me to add a credit card.
On a good note, they implemented VoLTE services with my network provider (TIM Italy) not available on Android O/10

Exactly, Colors are all over the place, notifications are a mess, user friendliness has gone for a toss, android auto is ****, its almost begging users to switch to iOS, its a bloody shame, seems like no body is incharge, and everyone in all departments are experimenting forever.
Dont even start about play store!!
Apps look horrible forever. Believe me people will easily buy Pixel if only google appoints one person for whole os rather than army of different people with different ideas.

I regret installing the android preview. It is very buggy and for some reason when I use YouTube it starts scrolling thru the comments section without me touching the screen.
I have to agree, android has gotten pretty ugly. Remember Honeycomb? It was kind of rad in it own rights. Had a color scheme, they introduced the Roboto font, the wallpapers looked like they all belonged to a pack and nit just random stock images of bubbles. Holo kept everything uniform. It seemed to be the 1st and last time they had a clear concise vision for an OS.
Hell, the little android guy was a bee lol.

Why did you install it? IT'S A DEVELOPER RELEASE! You experienced exactly what is expected. The release is PRE-BETA and for developers and enthusiasts to test and report issues. In other words, you are suppose to experience bugs - that's the whole purpose of the release.
Did you even report your issues? Probably not. I'm sure it was just easier to come online and complain about your experience.

Very smooth ROM good job
I like custom roms, but non i've used have floating windows like miui. I can't live without floating windows since i love to multi task. You can argue that split screen is the same, but too me it isn't since i can move around anywhere. Plus it's easier to start a floating windows with the gesture than clicking manually to do a split screen.
if their's any rom that has floating windows i would switch in a heartbeat

I use it as a daily driver for 3 weeks now. Prime Video works, most streaming apps work, banking apps work. Bascially I didn't come across an app that I was using on stock that doesn't work.
Only feature I'm missing in this ROM is the DOLBY Atmos Audio. Other than that, the ROM is good.
I do notice that in my opinion, the battery life is a bit reduced compared to STOCK Android, especially when watching videos constantly. I ususally was able to charge the phone to 100, go about my day, use it daily, get 3 hours of youtube streaming on 90% brightness and come home after the day with 25-30% juice. Now it seems I get like 8-12% battery left at the end of the day. But If I don't watch videos or keep the screen on a lot, I thunk the battery runs even better than Stock MIUI. No idea where the difference comes from.

The last update broke the NFC module. Payments don't work, Quick Settings NFC tile is greyed out
Hey , I installed this rom and I got some bugs. When I scroll down the quick settings , I get some stutter and fps drop. My phone maximum brightness is reduced but the minimum brightness is also reduced . Dolby doesn't work ( but that's common ) . My phone was slow in all aspects. Aside from this I have a bug ( in custom roms and in stock roms) where Instagram reels will stutter if the video is high quality is this a software issue or an hardware one , because this doesn't occur on high quality videos on YouTube or Netflix or other ott platforms . Does anyone face the same issues ?? If you have a fix then please help me ( for the Instagram one and the quick setting bug in custom roms) , thanks... Peace

SMS messages are working fine for myself. Have you tried using the default Google messages app?
Now is with Google app.
The only problem I found in the ROM. Not sure if this is some config.
I installed the ROM from stock Miui 12.5 CN.
Changed interface scale and text scale.
Not sure if this affects emojis output.
A see them if someone sent me emojis the problem is when I send them.
Wanted you to know this ROM works on my Mi Mix 3.
Only issue I found is that the camera app crashes sometimes. ( loses connection)
Very easy install, starting with Global image, installed TWRP using XioaTool V2, manually installed Magisk-v25 from TWRP, wiped everything and formatted data. Using external USB drive to install from.
Very clean and phone performance is very good.
Thanks for your hard work

Thank you for your kind words
Regarding the issues with the camera, I'm sorry.
I'll be reverting to the stock camera for Pixel Extended for it's stability. I'm trying to work out if that camera can support both lenses but even without, I'll provide the next update when it's available

Don't have to apologize, Thank you for the good work! Just realized that I have put my Pixel 4a 5g aside and use my mix 3 as a daily driver.
Hi, can anyone test emojis in SMS? just try to send to yourself a SMS with emojis and see if they appear.
Apart from that the ROM seems very good and bank apps work without problems.
Tried to install again without luck, other ROMs like MIUI.EU 12.5 works fine with emojis. Don't know why I can't send them in this ROM but I can receive fro other person.

I've tested it myself and everything is fine.
Have you got the right APN settings?

Question The official Lineage os with Gapps on the 7 pro is the perfect phone!

It takes whatever is wrong with the stock and throws it out the window. And the scrolling is also buttery smooth on web browsing especially if you install chrome as a third party app. You can add as much Google apps as you want. And have the best experience and for a sound mod I use is James dps magisk with the eq cranked all the way up with the convolver on the very wide setting. It's an amazing experience.
If you go to lineage os website you can download the firmware for lineage os but you have to use the jan beta build recovery to install.
Do you get the superior call screening that only Pixels get when using Lineage?
It is this feature alone that makes me stay with a Pixel as it is. If this is lost then it's no better than any other phone available today.
i seem to have better connection service yes. stock gives me issues when calling people like the phone disconnects. no issues so far.
I think @jaseman is referring to the call SCREENING, not quality (IE the ability to block useless calls). I never installed Lineage on any of my decices and i also wonder myself if you do keep all the "exclusive" features this device has.
For exemple, let's consider the camera app. @UltimateGamer83 can you confirm you have the SAME camera with all Pixel features activated ?
Call screening and Google camera working 100% I've been on lineage since the first build. Super solid

So Google Phone works with Mindthegapps along with Lineage 20? I tried it in the past but found that CALL SCREENING could not be activated.

Working for me. Didn't do anything special either. It lets me select male or female voice .. if it doesn't allow you to, it doesn't work
how is the battery life with mindthegapps and lineage?

LOS was always better in battery life then Stock roms. Used it on most OP devices I had. Pretty sure on Cheetah is the same.
Better than stock. Might stick with lineage os for now on and keep my phone heavily modded.
I have ran this software since November of last year and I can honestly say that the battery life is superb It works really really well.
No Google Wallet, right?

No 5x lens in the camera app ? or is the screenshot from the normal Pixel 7 ?
Portrait mode is 1x and 2x only then digital zoom.

You just have to check the LOS topic for our device. It says in the OP :
"For some reason, this ROM only needs the Displax SafetyNet Fix and Shamiko (or DenyList) on top of Magisk in order to pass SafetyNet/Play Integrity, which is a nice bonus. As of 11/17, I was able to use GPay with this ROM if you use Magisk, Shamiko, and Displax SafetyNet Fix."
@UltimateGamer83 @i42o thanks, you convinced me to give LOS a try later this week
do you recommend installing kirisakura kernel or is stock already good like this?
