Android [12] - Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion

Anyone interested just poll

Great work GodDev , we love to see Android 12 on Lenovo p2 but with some optimization for the 4 year old processor that may not handle huge tasks. Either ways looking forward for the glimpse of Android 12. Thank you

I think we need to slow down and make everything stable before jumping on the bandwagon of android hype.

Yes I'm ready!

Wait for 3-4 Months ✌

You are right bro there may be lag too. I would try my best to optimize to peek for the best performance and also would see for less battery drain. Anyway thanks for your reply

Yes I'm ready for 12
But plz create a build with stereo sound recording like havic os 2.9 build 14 oct 2019

Love to see in Android 12 if possible... the battery saver key on left be configured for some customisation like Google assistant launch, specific app launch, extreme battery saver or anything else.
Thank you

P.D.: Is there going to be Xposed installer available for this new version ?? We will see that soon

The first question that comes to my mind is that the extra features that will be available in Android M.... Then the ROMs can be discussed as they are always the icing on the cake.

Onereason Android makes it a better choice than Ios was this fact that you are onmuch more open work to walk on(easily root and stuff) but Android m accordin to news here is trying all it can to blockbring changes..i seems we are again going through OS which is going to limited our capabilities in customizin its environment...if this happened,I believe other OS like firefox or in near future, MIUI(independent of android in future),will have more chance of getting attention ...hope google won't cose the paths to root and stuff as root is really what brings out "the most feature of Linux system in android" and having an androind device as being more pleasant

I don't think Google would do that. Because it would ruin Android's Open Source. But if that happen, there would be another OS to develop for SmartPhones: Ubuntu Touch

Well brothers, we hope Marshmallow brings prosperity to Android. Or more
Will Galaxy Grand Neo (GT-I9060) have 6.0 Marshmallow rom, im stuck over 2years with JB 4.2 its horrible
One thing that is awesome about Android 6.0 is the fact that we will be able to limit what apps can access.I'm hoping that in turn adds to better security to your device since we live now in a world that security gets harder as technology gets farther along.
wonder what new features will be in CM 13..

CM13 nightly released for Asus Padfone S/X.I am not sure about this just saw a guide on theandroidsoul.com.If it is true then CM13 will be available for other devices. soon
This thread is interesting, and could be one to follow re the progress of CM13. http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/cm13-0-unofficial-watching-code-merged-t3228335
Apparently we know that Doze will be included in CM13, which is good news IMO....I'm very excited about the battery life increases it should bring.
Cool
Now that Cyanogenmod is in bed with Microsoft and will install Microsoft apps as default system apps that can't be removed...I no longer care about any new CM news or builds.

I mean, I appreciate the effort but if you are planning on releasing an "alpha" build of a ROM that's based on Android 8.1, nearly a month after the release of Android 9.0, you're not going to have very many people using your ROM...

Yes you are right but the problem is that it is a Lineage os based rom, so before starting with 9.0 I need to wait Lineage os 16 that it isn t developed yet.
When Lineage os 16 source code will be public I ll stop 8.1 developement

Android 10 ROMS for our beloved P2?--- A Discussion.

Does anyone know any developer who would be willing to make android-10 ROMS for our P2 or is Pie the last update for this awesome phone?

Hopefully not as the developers said that as long as they have this phone working they'll keep the development going. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Well, I hope there will be future development for this phone too. I'm using one for more than 2 years, and battery still rocks, it sure lasts more than any flagship !
as far as i can tell, mike is working on lineage os 17.
so at least one android 10 rom might be coming soon

Yea bro same, more than 2.5 years and still i get SOT of 6-7 hours.
Whenever i think of buying a new phone, i look at my p2 and i stop. Its still so smooth cuz of the ROMS and charges under 1 hour and 15 minutes.
This phone is the best purchase i ever had. So i want development to keep going on, atleast for 1 more iteration of Android. Then i'll maybe buy Redmi K20 pro next year cuz it'll also have good development in future.
@Erazor84 that's good news brother. But I'll wait for AOSP xtended Android-10 (if it ever comes)
Bcuz i used their Oreo build and now using pie, and i found them the best among all of'em.

My guess would be at least 2 more ROMs :fingers-crossed: one from @VladSor and second from @Fullbustah as they are consistent with porting/ developing the ROMs such as Havoc, Syberia, Bootleggers and POSP for P2.
But of course, we need a reliable vendor upgrade first.
Xiaomi redmi note 4 which has the same Specs has just got lineage 17.

Generic System Image (GSI) is pure untouched Android released by Google for treble enabled phones with a designated vendor partition.
Semi GSI (SGSI) is a customized GSI with features and name of a custom ROM and it can also be installed on treble enabled phones with a designated vendor partition.

The following url https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/development/rom-aosip-derpfest-t3981193 will give You access on this forum to the thread concerning AOSiP-10-DerpFest-Alpha-kuntao-20191009.zip which is the first alpha version of the first Android 10 custom rom dedicated to the Lenovo P2.
If You are interested in testing this Android 10 rom, just follow the installation instructions given on the first page of the thread.
If I well understood, I think that someone, maybe mikeioannina ?, should now be working on a Android 10 rom LineageOS 17. If this is the case, all we can do is to be patient.
You will note that from now on we must say Android 10 instead of Q as asked by Google. So, next year, the next version of Android will be Android 11 and not R.
Below is the lineageos github page for Kuntao (Lenovo P2a42), the branch is on 17.0, but it seems it hadn't been developed on in 4 months, but i don't know how these things go...

Hello I've tried all of the versions on my KUNTAO, at the beggining very laggy now better, there are some ROMS which you can use w/out a problem if you can live w/out some of the features like the FP GESTURES OR AA CONNECTIVITY.
HAVOC 3.0 (NOT THE TREBLE VERSION) to me is the best option till this post furthermore I don't know.
CHHERS
So, We are half a year further from the last post in this thread, any news on the stability and performance of the android 10 rom's? Im right now on Crdroid Pie ROM and except fingerprint kicking the bucket everything is working flawlessly. Any stable and well performing 10 rom's out there, or should we wait a little longer?

Custom ROMs with Android Q for s8(+) information exchange

Since there will be no official Android Q for our device, I hope there will be custom ROMs (ports) with Q. Especially because on s9 and s10 official Q was released already. The idea is to collect and exchange information about Android Q ROMs for s8 and s8+ .
m.
Im also waiting for any info about Q, I'm a S8 owner myself, would help with testing if necessary.
My OS is currently the RiCE 15.0, it works almost flawlessly, but I'm always into new technologies, I need only the Viper Audio in my OS, because I've got Sennheiser True Wireless Momentum headphones, and it improves simply a lot of things there for me.
And the smartphone itself is great, just the battery life could be a bit better.
Yep, I agree! We have a great HW but the battery life, at least at the stock ROM, isn't the best ... . I'm really curious about Q on s8 and I'm sure sooner or later there will be some.

you can already get android q on galaxy s8, using treble and some gsi, just search for hadestreble.
also, lineage os 17.0 (based on Android Q) is in development
Thx.! I was hoping for lineage 17 even if I'm not a real a lineage fan ... .
How about treble? Did you maybe check it out your self?

yes, I have. it has some bugs like random reboots and also there is the fact that some gsis just work very well, while other don't even boot up. I have used pixel experience gsi based on Android 10 and it was overall pretty stable, stable enough for daily use.

I guess we have to wait a little till the Q ROMs become a stable, bug free daily driver ... . But at least they are becoming more & more, so there will be some we can choose from

Question Custom Rom?

I'm a new user of this phone,and i curious about normally when will this phone gets custom roms?
Depends if a dev is getting the phone normally... For the mi 11 pro/ultra there was a fundraiser.. after phone was bought... It took a few months, also due to source release off Xiaomi. But FUXI is wat more easy i guess.. so i think custom will come here fairly fast

There is already not a single rom for the 12 pro 8 Gen1 while the kernel dates from December 2021.
In my opinion several obstacles, incomplete Kernel ***, the completely new fingerprint part ***, the soc, price.

Maybe it's the soc, for devices over a year old brands like One Plus or Samsung no AOSP rom too.
Xiaomi 12 (cupid) with 8 gen 1 has stable LOS. Fingerprint and SOC seems to be no problem. I guess, as soon as an good developer wants a custom rom for that phone, it will be a process less then 3 Month to stable. RN I use the 12X and on december a good dev got the phone and now we have a pretty good and stable base!

the two newest releases are for davinci (K20) and not cupid.

Flash gapps. Los is always vanilla. And the latest release for cupid is built this month and it's stable. This is the best possible situation!

I'm so waiting for this too! You cant imagine how disappointed I am with Xiaomi's UI both visually and functionally, not to mention some of its stupid restrictions. Today I've succesfully unlocked BL and flashed xiaomi.eu wich fixes some of the annoyances, but I definitely think a more pure version of android would suite that device better.
