[Completed] Custom ROM for Huawei GX1S

Hi,
I recently purchased a Huawei GX1S and overall found it a good phone except for one thing: the ROM. It uses a Huawei customized ROM which I personally find horrible as it doesn't have any of the regular apps like Play Store or Chrome. It uses Huawei update servers, EMUI, as its system update download server so therefore I can't get any of the Google official updates.
I've Googled up several times to try and find the original Google custom ROM and haven't found anything related to it. The best I could find were 2 tutorial sites that had survey locked download links which I honestly don't trust and wouldn't waste my time on. There seems to be no information at all for this product. Are there any available custom ROMs out there that I can use with this device?
Thanks

There is no root guide in the ROM section, just Kali rom, twrp and forum rules/mods. Maybe a link would be helpful.
Update: I guess they are talking about it in the TWRP post, seems out of place considering the ROM section is not meant for discussion.

No root for T-Mobile version, locked bootloader too

Thanks, work fine for me.

Well that's depressing. I can't wait for root on my T-Mobile S7 Edge.

Yep, none of those threads have to do with "Root", but people are having discussions about root in the TWRP thread which is against forum rules because those are dev threads. But I guess the dev is either slacking or just letting it fly. Either way, thank you.

Seriously?
I will quickly answer this, as this discussion is against the rules as it is not about the topic of this thread. It is lacking of respect towards the OP who is doing job for the community.
There are various conversations about rooting.
1. The TWRP with root included if you read the OP. People are discussing issues or trying to find solutions for their phones.
2. There is a specific thread saying CF Auto Root ...talks about rooting your devices with Chainfire's fabulous work only. Well mostly people saying thank you, as it is rare that Chainfire's work goes wrong.
I think the Mods on this forum are tough and correct... so if something was against the rules, they would of taken action.
Now this is a thread about volume and Viper... so nothing to do with this discussion... So let's go back on topic.

okkkkkaaaaayyyy. the rom/recovery sections is meant for the developers to post updates on their progress or info about the rom/recovery/etc. This is why the mods continually tell people to not discuss in the rom section, and instead the dev should create a separate thread in the Q&A regarding any questions pertaining to the thread. Root is relevant to almost everything on XDA, so when someone says to go look in the rom section about root information, it's kind of vague to assume that information about "how to root" will be in the TWRP recovery section. My point was that simply telling a user to go to the rom section to find answers about rooting their phone is not ideal nor does it make sense, so let's all avoid confusing more and more people on this site.

Sir,can i flash your mod with soundmod of divinebeats by royalseeker?Will it create any contradictions?

will this mod work whith The Sound Mod Thread by ZuBi182??
or will this cause problems?

No need to flash both mods at the same time as they are meant for the same purpose. Mod by ZuBi182 has more features and adjusted values.
Sent from my SM-G935F using XDA-Developers mobile app

Working but 10 second later turn normal mod
Why do you think's going on?
For example in youtube, 10 second viber4android active, later deactivate.

Install Honor V8 global rom

Hello,
Recently bought a Honor V8 in one of the local (cheap) store but they selling phones with chinese rom. I would like to replace the original one with a global rom what i found here :victory:. After unlocking the boot loader (bye-bye guarantee), uploaded the update.zip onto the dload folder of the SD card. However the phone still complains and not accepting this as a valid firmware. Probably i need to use TWRP or similar tool for this task, but i would like to know if someone done this before or is it possible at all?
Many Thanks for your help!

its very risky since this device having different board and density size ! .

You can probably try and flash the original ROM again if it doesn't work. Not sure if it will break your phone using different versions

What's your phone model?

As a new member it's not permitted to ask this in "Honor 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Development" section, only here "Honor 8 Questions & Answers".
This is a new thread here. What do you exactly would like to suggest, shall I move it to somewhere else?

Some phones that are made only for the Chinese market will not be compatible with any new firmware. But always try to find the exact firmware that matches your device hardware before trying. The V8 is a completely different phone than the Honor 8. Do not try to use the Honor 8 firmware.

OP6 TWRP release - when?

Does anyone have an estimate as to when TWRP will be released for the 6? I didn't follow development in the past, so I'm not sure how long after the OP5 and OP5T twrp was released. Wondering because even if I pick up the phone at the pop-up, I won't start using it until I can root.
Thanks for any info.

I thought it was possible already, at least there are a few sites teaching how to do it. like this one: https://www.technobuzz.net/root-oneplus-6-and-install-twrp/
Edit: misleading title. actually the download link shows previous oneplus models, not 6. sorry

This shouldn't be in the dev section, but in questions and answers

well its only a handfull people ho have the op6 now
so wat about we wait until some dev get it an can stsrt dev on it
so maybe 1 week or 2 after it start selling

Just wait till last may we will get it

if it is like the op5, on the 22 or 23 we will have the twrp.

To be honest, it will be there on the official release date or the day after.
There have been tons of devices given away for reviews.
So that few extra devices to devs to support the op6 also have been given.
Just be patient, we are nearing the official release to us, the public.

+1 craving for the op6 twrp~
And infinite possibilities to come ~

Still no OnePlus 6 device tree avaliable on github.com/OnePlusOSS. We need it to port the TWRP in easy way.

Just after this post I asked a modarator to move the thread from the dev section to Q&A.
It's indeed rude and against the XDA rules to ask for that.
But I don't get it it why you quoted me?
Please elaborate on that.

Building Android 11 from source, need help with some questions.

I have been into installing custom ROMs and rooting Android for many years now, used many mid range Android devices, never tried to build one from source (did not have good enough hardware or broadband), now I have got both and want to try building ROM from source and got many questions, any help would be appreciated.
Important questions:​(Need these answers before I start downloading Repos)
Is it possible to create any Android version Rom for any device? like I used to have Moto G2, if I can get it's source code, can I build Android 11 Rom for it? or am I missing something here?
I own Realme 5 Pro now, if I build Android 11 and flash it, is there any chance it could hard brick my device?
If I'd built Android 11 for R5 Pro, how would I know it's for my device? can I flash that firmware on another device? or vice versa? I know that flashing other device firmware can hard brick your device.
What are the chances of getting bugs after flashing? like ril not working, or maybe settings wont open, camera wont work etc. and how can I fix them for my specific device?
How can I ensure that the specific build only works for R5 Pro and not other device? like do I have to sign it with specific code or anything like that? any idea?
Not so important questions:​(You can answer it if u know)
How much download is necessary to build from source? If u have built, is there any specific download size or different for specific devices?
Also if I want to build TWRP recovery for R5 Pro from scratch how would I go about doing that? and what about giving it a different theme style?
How long will it take for my specs pc to build? any estimated idea? (specs: 16gb ddr4 3600mhz ram, Ryzen R5 3700x, Nvidia 2060 Super, and lots of space)
Can I build this Rom to be flashed via recovery or is it has to be fastboot specific?
Can I build Android Kitkat or something old for newer devices?
So these are the initial questions that comes to my mind, I am posting this thread on some diff forums too, if u have any experience regarding this please do share, any help is appreciated, Thank you.
