Click here to see the Custom ROM by highwaystar_ru
His post doesn't always come up from google search.
Hello.
I want to buy a Lenovo P8 from Gearbest: https://www.gearbest.com/tablet-pcs/pp_1542868.html?wid=1640583
I have some questions:
1. It comes with Android 6.0 and has a locked bootloader (I think, it can't be unlocked). Can it receive update to oreo (the custom rom from this thread)?
2. Is it possible to install TWRP and then the custom ROM?
3. Is The Oreo stable ? Phone calling and FM radio is supported on this custom ROM? How much space is used (from 16 GB)?
4. Where can I find the stock ROM (Android 6.0), just in case if something goes wrong? On Lenovo website I cant find the stock ROM, and if something goes wrong (even with TWRP) I want to have the possibility of flashing the stock via QFIL.
(5.) On which kernel is based
A. Stock ROM
B. Oreo custom
Thanks!

New up-today Cdroid custom ROM available from ziggy815, but for some reason the ROM does show under XDA. I created a new thread but it doesn't show under Lenovo P8 topic thread. Maybe XDA database take sometime to update, IDK.
Anyway, click the link below to try it out:

good news
I think the moderator will fix it
maybe it's a matter of tags...
:good:
May I request developers to make custom ROMs for this device...
Because there are literally no ROMs available.
Flashing GSIs are an option but then again even GSIs are unstable and buggy.
Maybe you guys could just add some features to MIUI ROMs which include maybe customising text, accent, etc. Like other ROMs(or GSIs) have(generally)?
(By modifying files and all.... I'm not a dev and thus have no clue how to do this sorry :crying
This would be really appreciated!
Anyways I have Redmi Y2 arm32 ysl and I have tried ViperOS and AOSP... Both have many glitches and (I apologise)are not fit for normal use.(like volte not working, random reboots etc.)
The reason why I am not posting this in the respective rom forum is ( I don't have enough posts ) the devs have so much to do.. So many devices and all and I believe that if some modifications be done in MIUI and released as a rom it would be so much better!
Thanks for reading this full!!
If you are a dev and good enough (just kidding) may I suggest this idea.
Thanks is advance!!

Pixel Experience goes pretty well and almost without fail
AOSP 9.0 is the one I'm using now and with the exception of MusicAX, everything works fine
On Miui, you have the rom of Xiaomi EU, which go very well, they are also Miui Pro or MiRoom, which also work very well
Peak was with the development of lineage 15.1, and I hope it will soon release a functional rom for the YSL
It's true that it does not have as much development as other Xiaomi models, but with the GSI I'm pretty happy
Here I leave a link, so you can try the Rom that I have told you:

8.1/9.0 bugs ???
trying to build Lineage 16 for mine, will report back if I have any success!
MIUI sucks, it's full of adware and who-know-what-else.
my device is the ysl global version, TWRP has some issues apparently. the data partition won't mount and the recovery partition seems to get reverted back each time MIUI boots, but if you 'fastboot boot' your twrp.img file it will boot it via USB.

Update: DO NOT TRY TO PAY!!! THE GUIDE IS BADLY OUTDATED. JUST USE THE RESOURCES AND FREE METHODS.
If you want to try the paid method, you should definitely get in touch with the seller first. I don't know whether the previous sellers are active or not.
If you want to inform me of something important, please `@me`, (I missed many replies in the past years)

There seems to exist a new method: It is said to work on Qualcomm devices.
First, dump frp partion, then edit the value to 1 at 7fff0, finally, flash the modified frp image. then you can use fastboot command to unlock your phone.
This new method shall work for for ODM devices like 16T, 16x, 16xs and Note9 and so on. see FRP Method.
Below is the original post:
The original post has been removed, since it's outdated and I almost finished the English version tutorial on Github.
You can see it on github.
BTW, it's really difficult to use XDA's text editor.
You can download the TWRP of 16s here
it's a start, is there anyone who has already tried a gsi?
Good news for us Meizu users! Hope this is just a first step towards some good modding ?
Will this also work on Meizu Note 9?

A new method has been released on 4pda, which supports almost all MEIZU devices using Qualcomm Proccessor. This is the original link 4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=961552&st=960#entry90949224

I tried MIUI 11 and Flyme 8 , almost everything does not work on MIUI 11, it can boot into system, but the launcher doesn't work. Almost everything works fine on Flyme, except Bluetooth and Camera
I will try to rewrite an English version
The Chinese version has been moved to wiki, I'm planning to rewrite an English version similar to the Chinese version.

Sure, the new method applies to almost all devices, all versions. You can have a look at my github repository. I will edit the original post as soon as I can post links. BTW, is there any netdisk you guys use frequently? I don't know where to put the TWRP so that you can download easily.

You can use yandex.disk or google drive.
But you say about downgrade. Does the new method ignore the firmware version ?

yes, the new method applies to almost all versions, I have not updated the original post, because I have not prepared the English Version well on Github. You can have a look at github.com/sukanka/MEIZU16S_unlock_tutorial/wiki/Guide-to-Unlock-Your-MEIZU-Device
A new tutorial has been released on github

There seems to be custom ROMs for MEIZU 16th, I've seen Lineage, havoc, and mokee before. But i don't know how do these ROMs work. Anyway, I use 16s, not 16th. Besides, I don't know how to add a new phone category.
BTW, it's said that the kernel source of the 16 series will be released, maybe next year. And there are plans to upgrade the Android version of the 16 series.

You try another gsi rom? I want try pixel gsi or havoc, but I don't think was supported at 100%, probably lost taptic engine and other features... If have problems with this gsi and I want reinstall flyme stable, will be a problem?

No problem. If your phone becomes a brick, you can follow the unbrick tutorial to save your phone. But you are suggested to have glance at the tutorial before you go.
As reported by others, fingerprint and Mengine (taptic engine) don't work.
I am on havoc 2.9. Fingerprint mengine and mtp not work. But other features work fine
First telegram gruop for rom develop in meizu 16series: @Meizugsi
(nothing has been published yet, hopefully in the interest of some developers soon)
I saw that the miui eu (zip extension) for Poco x3 pro came out, so what makes me think that there is also the twrp, where can I find it? thanks
I would keep an eye on this link for any xiaomi.eu approved recoveries for the X3 Pro:

PS: Not certain about this device in particular but can't at least some Xiaomi.eu ROMs be installed via fastboot?
I came here hoping the bootloader had already been unlocked for this device.

Why wouldn't it be able to be unlocked? oh I guess you meant if anyone had already gotten past the unlock timer...
I'm about to try and unlock mine (or I guess start the timer before actually unlocking it) but I'm waiting for it to update everything first.
EDIT: I got the 1 week timer.

Glad you finally understood what I meant, lol... I currently own both the One Plus 7T and Xiaomi Pocophone F1 which both required a timed bootloader unlock process: Poco's was 3 days and the 7T's was 1 full week. I was hoping that the bootloader could be unlocked automatically w/o having to wait, but oh well, I guess it's a necessary evil.
Just got mine! (6,128)
I immediately tried to unlock the bootloader, just after getting it. heh
Got 168h
Got 168 too. I should have tried to unlock immediately. But i did it after my work and wasted 18 hours
Looks like some TWRP showed up for our device under that link I posted earlier

also available it seems in a week (after unlock 168h) I might be able to clean flash?
Can @Camerado possibly explain in what state of development the TWRP version is?

This is build by thespartann, i know because im in the group that he released it in.. but its still untested because no boot loader unlocked as of yet.. so use with caution
You can simply boot it rather than flash it
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Make sure you unplug the USB cable from the phone as soon as it's done uploading the file to the device. The timing is very important. You'll understand what I mean in a little bit less than a week

Hello everyone,
i want to install a custom rom for my device tecno spark 8c because the stock rom is so trash like ads limit apps i hate it i tried to search for a custom rom for my device and i didnt find any resource or link for existing custom rom for my device does any one know where i can find or if there is one i will be greatfull and thanks
While there is no custom ROM's for your device, your next bet should be GSI's or Generic System Images. These are ROM's with a one-size-fits-all design. Maybe you can search around for a custom ROM you like and see if they have a GSI available.

Here's a tutorial that I used before: https://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/
Also, here's a minimal ROM that has a GSI available: https://havoc-os.com/
Do note that you need a GSI that matches or is a higher android version than the current system.

ok i read a little about gsi and project reble so the rom is basicaly a rom that run on anydevice because the vendor or arcitecture kinda separate from software didnt quite understand what i need is that my device to meet the terble project requierments so i am able to install it.
ok so here i found this link
https://www.getdroidtips.com/android-12-tecno-spark-8c-kg5k/
i find it before i create this thread and it shows gsi first i didnt want to use it because the rom source unknown for me i didnt know gsi and anything else i was not trusting it
ok so now if i want to search a good gsi rom compatable with my device other than this i want to know if my device compatable with project treble where can i see that and what famuos roms are have this kind like lineage ,and similar to havoc so i find the i like its features and compatble
