Hey there peoples of the internet...

Please keep us posted. I'm very curious how this runs.

So far it's running good...works with the Linux upstream kernel for Los...installed Google camera with magisk mod no problem
Have to flash Gapps but that's easy, and yea...some themes don't wanna work with the system UI so try at your own risk...but for the first 2 hours it seems really good

Here you go...to get Gapps installed, I used Gapps nano from open Gapps.
I just flashed the rom, rebooted to bootloader and flashed twrp, booted into recovery, flashed Gapps and the boot.img and was good to go

How can i get the Boot.img for the rom .... all i see is payload.bin and a few other files ... Thanks

[GUIDE] Install Treble Roms on Honor 9

DISCLAIMER:
I'm not the developer of any of those Roms, so don't cry on me if your device gets bricked!
INTRODUCTION:
So, as many of you guys know, the Homor 9 is Treble compatible which means you can get any Treble Rom on it although the support of our device on XDA is really poor on our forum.
IMPORTANT ISSUES:
Since we don't even have an official TWRP for the Honor 9 but only some kind of a buggy one with missing encryption on Android 8.1 (I mean I'm thankful for what we have, but it's still sad), I was NOT able to flash Gapps afterwards, which means, either you have to get a Rom with implemented Gapps or live without them.
If anyone finds out a way to install them, please let me know!
REQUIREMENTS:
- Unlocked bootloader
- Any Android Oreo firmware installed
- Stock Recovery (as our TWRP can't wipe stuff)
INSTALLATION:
1. Look for your favorite Rom on the following link and download it:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development
2. Reboot your device to bootloader
3. "fastboot flash system [downloaded img file]"
4. Reboot to stock recovery
5. Wipe cache and factory reset
6. Reboot and enjoy!
I hope I was able to get some of your hopes up for Honor 9 and custom roms!

Thank u! But i have one question about this Treble Rom's... is all working? ( BT, WLAN, Sound ect.?)

Look at the bug list of each rom. As I said, I'm not the developer of any of those roms.
But I'm using the pure AOSP rom by phhusson and it's working perfectly fine without any issues as far as I can tell.

Is it compulsory to wipe data for a new ROM to work, say for example i'm going form AOSP 8 to AOSP 8.1, should the data partition be compatible and not require wiping?
Iv'e always wiped /data in the past, but i cant be bothered this time since i don't want to re-install everything.

I dirty flashed a few times - even going from AOSP to RROS for example and it went fine for me. So just try it out, reboot with only wiping cache and if you experience bugs you can still do a factory reset. But just keep in mind that many developers don't support dirty flashing because bugs can happen easily when doing that and it's also not recommended.
PS: Don't dirty flash a Rom without Gapps if you're using a launcher that requires Google Play Services!

Excellent, thanks, I'll give it a try, I'll make sure I disable or uninstall xposed and disable substratum beforehand, I guess the worst that can happen is a bootloop, and I can just reflash old system image if it doesn't work .

Yes, you can flash it on top of any Project Treble (Oreo) Rom or EMUI 8 (Oreo) using my guide.
Magisk is kind of working for me although it crashes quite often and I have to reinstall the Manager or reflash it entirely fron time to time.

Thank you.
I read about problems with magisk and phhusson's gsi roms. I think to uninstall magisk before installing. I flashed magisk with fastboot, because i'm on stock recovery. So i have to read howto unroot with fastboot before i update.

Battery life was pretty good during my use without Xposed. I can't give you a specific battery life time now since I've installed Xposed which obviously made it a bit worse.

Hi,
I've several question for you :
1/ I wonder about security and privacy, do you think using aosp treble is better, than stock rom for that ?
2/ i don't care about gapps (gmail...), but i need the framework and google playstore.
If i take pure aosp without gapps does it have playstore and google frameworks ?
3/ which version do you use ? can you link me the version ?
Thanks.

1. Well you kind of get a security risk anyway by unlocking the bootloader, rooting, etc. Other than that the Roms themselves are just what Android provides in terms of security.
2. No
3. for A-Only arm64 with Gapps and SU (https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...development/experimental-phh-treble-t3709659)

Does the camera work well?

Do navkeys work?
I'm talking about aosp phh Treble.
And one thing, how to return to stock?
Extract system.img from stock rom with Huawei firmware extractor, flash it from fastboot like the aosp image, go to recovery and wipe cache and data, reboot and voila?

- Yes 4K video is working (screen recording as well)
- Fingerprint is fully working with home button gestures set to Huawei's default for one button navigation - can be tweaked by editing the fingerprint.kl tho.
- Navbar is working fine for me but might have to do with the EMUI firmware you were on previously (although there's a fix for it now but I don't know if this fix works on Android 8.1)

I think there's a misunderstanding. I was talking about the physical navigation keys (the ones near the fp sensor). Do they work as intended? Is it possible to deactivate the on screen navigation keys without root(because I want only the aosp Rom without anything else added)?

Noob guide to install GSI on whyred

Today I flashed Pixel Experience GSI on my whyred after much trouble so here is a guide to make things clear.
if you are coming from MIUI you have to format data from twrp. this is a must to disable encryption.
after you are done formatting data. just do factory reset from twrp and then go to advanced wipe and then do the regular dalvik, cache, system, data and then swipe to wipe.
now the thing is whyred officially supports treble but the implementation is shoddy according to XDA folks. so if you flash GSI over miui's vendor there will be many bugs. like brightness slider not working and many things. so they(all credit goes to them) created a vendor zip which makes things really good. there are no bugs and it also supports volte. here is the download link .
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=273660
now flash this zip file in twrp.
after that download the GSI of your choice from here.
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
remember to download arm64 A only system image.
here is pixel experience GSI which I prefer:
https://download.pixelexperience.org/treble_gsi/
now extract the zip and you will get a single .IMG file which is your system image. now go to twrp and then go to install then go to select install image downward. (don't flash directly, it's an .IMG file) then select the extracted .IMG file and then choose system and then flash.
then reboot system. that's it. you should boot fine.
download latest official twrp from here: https://dl.twrp.me/whyred
if you want root you will have to flash magisk beta 16.6 which works better on GSI. download here.
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v16.6/Magisk-v16.6.zip
to use Google camera you will have to enable camera2api. arnova's gcam doesn't work on this build. you will have to use BSG's gcam. here is the link. enable nexus style and active portrait mode from settings.
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/MGC_5.2.022.apk
few tips: if your device is not booting and going to fastboot, flash magisk. it will definitely boot up.
if your device shows decryption failed, just format data from twrp. it will delete all user data btw.
no need to flash lazyflasher.
there are no uncertified device pop up from Google. so no need to worry.
playstore shows uncertified btw and magisk shows CTS false.
all the links that I have linked here, the credit goes to the creators. I am a normal user of XDA. thanks to them.
happy flashing and all hail the XDA lords.

How is Pixel experience gsi though?....faced any bugs till now?

it's good but there where few bugs. anyway pixel experience rom specifically for whyred has been released. you can flash that. it's great and bug free. download it here. it's not GSI though. normal ROM.

I was on the June build, I had issues with bluetooth audio (didn't work) and USB connection to computer (did not work). I think the USB issue was due to Magisk but I never did figure out the bluetooth issue.
No issues with the whyred version of Pixel Experience.

I also faced the same issue. But I see July build of GSI is up so those bugs might be fixed. anyway the PE ROM for whyred is excellent.
btw GSI will help us when P will release next month.

So should I flash the ROM or the gsi?....are there any differences?

you should flash the ROM as it's specifically for whyred. its flashing instruction is different than GSI. but easy. just wipe and then flash the ROM. and reboot. that's it.
you may have to format data to disable encryption.

Thanks mate for your experience, no detailed information in PE thread about wipes to do, before or after, can help with it? May be also with magisk release to install and best gcam to use?

remove all security like fingerprint, pattern etc.
go to twrp
go to wipe
do factory reset
go to advanced wipe
select dalvik, cache, system and data and then wipe
go to install
flash the pixel experience rom
reboot to system
that's it
if you get a prompt to enter password to start android then you will have to go back to twrp and go to wipe and format data and type yes. it will delete all your files btw. so backup everything. then reboot it will boot up fine.
after you have done booting and set up, go back to twrp and flash magisk v16. reboot to system. all done.
I have already given details of gcam in my OP. Kindly check that. The same works great on this ROM.
ask me if you face any problem. happy to help ?

[dupe sorry]

You should by all means read about antirollback to be sure, but my understanding is that the antirollback refers to the firmware, not the rom. MIUI roms all include different firmware, so you can't rollback a MIUI rom (unless it's been modded to be firmwareless). But as far as I know, no custom roms include firmware, so you should be fine even if your firmware is ARB triggered if all you're doing is installing custom roms.

Fastboot flash a standard non-beta build.. (don't let it relock the bootloader) using miflash with one of the fastboot roms.
https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
That way you should hopefully get back to a stock working android 10 rom and stock recovery, from there if you want to flash another beta you can go through the process again.
Android 11 has changed something with the FBE and twrp doesn't decrypt properly.

That it supposed to work for twrp if you're on a normal stock rom.

I will try it. Put older update-binary. Do we need to put older update-scripts?

In the android 10 zip file there is a compatibility.zip which does not exist in the android 11 zip file. I think it might cause a problem if you put the older update-binary zip in the android 11 zip file.

Question GSI installation instruction.

As you may know the a12 has some issues with gsi and random reboots on post kernel installations,I found some work around especially for U variants models.
Install stock rom,unlocked bootloader is needed.Install TWRP then install Rainbow kernel(choose the last on in the thread on the last page,no reboot issues on U variants) and let device boot up.Find a GSI that's your preference,then flash as system img in TWRP.Wipe data/Cache.No magisk zip require just install the app and finish the setup for root ect.
Best to use PHH base but I have gotten lineage 19 to work,also the kernel fixes the Screen issue where it shuts off.Also can confirm Official TWRP works on the a125u variant.The new android 13 GSI is confirmed working if curious just don't flash vbmeta and wipe data or you'll get a bootloop

What variant are you using,I'm using the a125u with the a125w bootloader,and vbmeta I used to unlock from another thread here,never had a problem with TWRP,does your phone say cannot verify vbmeta when it boots up? Mine says it in blue text.

It works,depends on what version you used,I used Andy's Lineage based on his and PHHs commits,only issues I've had with is is headset detection issues,which is fixed by going into phh settings,also you need to wipe data after install.ill link it for you

Do you have problems when trying to restart its hungs up or other problem stuck on deadboot in gsi12 rom the only way to fix is doing force reboot via volume down and power

No problems except when I try to place a call it instantly hangs up

hmm i flashed the version with gapps and google play has no internet aaaand i have 2 like routers and i connected to 1 then i cant connect to the second one hmm?

it always goes to the one i connected first
