Why does it take so long? - Honor 7 General

Why does it take so long to get a flawless working TWRP or CWM for our Honor7?
TWRP 2.8.6 will be available in cn. version.
TWRP 2.8.7 EN exists, but crashes the original recovery.img as i know.
CWM i can’t find!
How long we have to wait?
Any new informations?

Have you watched that ? Honor 7 Android Development ?

it doesn't take long if someone is working on it, it's the same reason there are no roms

We just made a mistake buying this phone..........:crying:

I think it’s a real good piece of hardware, but the software is too inflexible.
I need more latitude! hope,you will be able to understand that.
BTW: there are more and more rookie but less developers in the android forums worldwide!

i knew i should have gone for the nextbit robin (i was too impatient, and that thing looks awesome) or the n5x
I guess that being patient is the key to virtue
Everyone thinks that the software is crap:

TWRP EN version works fine.

Which users you mean??
There is TWRP and root for 5.0.x, 5.1.x, 6.x and there is a multi-tool out for the H7 as well.
There are at least 6 active threads on TWRP and root on this sub forum.
There is also the first custom kernel, a pre-requisite for custom roms.
Less b..... and more reading could be a good advise.

forget it!

The lesson I learnt from this east or west snapdragon is the best lol such a **** software some I think some nerd kid designed the emui

I'm really glad we have a dev in EU ( or close enough ), my hopes for CM for the S4 mini were very low as the S3 Mini didn't get any love.
Big ups arco!
in his g+ account there is a screenshot of cm10.2 thats great, i hope dual sim users could get it too
btw: what means the "CM" ? Custom Made?

the board name of the GT-I9195 like aries for the s1
Perhaps a noob question. Howver, can those files be flashed or something?
you need a little experiance and knowledge to do this.....
otherwise you can bricke your device
bricke = damaged, dead, no funktion any more, only use as a hammer or a brick in a wall....

used to have a HTC bravo, some knowledge available. Flashing the HTC only required root and a custom recovery. The ROMs came as a zip file which could be flashed via the recovery. Is the procedure similar and we just have to be patient until a zip file is created?

this is only the source code, if its ready you can compile it eather your self or download the rom, made by the dev but its useless to download these files if you dont know how to create a rom
so i guess we have to be patient until the rom is available?!
Yes indeed. We are all waiting patiently

CM Stopped

Hey guys,
Meticulus stopped working on CM, I'm using the rom as my daily driver and loved every update or fix, so sad and a big loss for every CM lover...
My question is, is there a developer who goes on with the rom or does the development really stops?
And does anyone know a solution for the bluetooth pair bug? Thanks!
As I know, someone is working on Paranoid Android for P9 Lite and managed to boot it (as meticulus said) but nobody is working on CM as far as I know..

Idk this. The Marionette did build so he can build stuff. I am the one who can test because I'm less experienced in development. So we need someone who can fix bugs. Maybe some request pool or something like that can help find right person?

Mod Edit
I followed the cyanogenmood thread all the time and I don't think that anyone made demands to meticulus. Also I don't think that people were ungrateful (what meticulus claims). For example I am a student and though I spend some money to get a device for meticulus. I did not expect from him that he must develop the rom but I expected from him honest work and not to stop developping out of not understandable reasons..
Afterall, @Meticulus had gone way too far out of its development. We can still thank him for bringing us that development and also to sponsors.. hope other dev will come and continue the support so that the progress will continue..

I know right! And everyone said he should make rules, he said: "I dont mind wat you discuss", and now he stopped development. Sorry but I think that that is a really ***** move.

This is a real real surprise. Great gesture from Yota to bring a new OS to a relatively old phone especially after halting the production and sales of the phone itself.

US Huawei Mate SE users discussion thread

I requested an specific forum extension for users (like me) who also have the Huawei Mate SE version in the US. In the meantime, we can use this thread to discuss specifics for this version.
Another Mate SE user posted this in the Oreo Beta thread. It seems there will be a also a FUT trial beta for Mate SE.
mobstaj said:
I had signed up for the 7x beta and then traded it in on a Mate SE for the extra ram and storage. Very happy that I did, camera seems to load consistently faster.
Anyway, I emailed the FUT testing team to inquire about the Mate SE and this is the response I got back:
"Last time we checked the Mate SE will have the FUT trial right after this model. But, yes. We can add you in the test if you did not get to participate in this model."
I emailed them back to see if I might be able to get a more specific time frame and information about how to sign up for that test. I'll let you know if they reply.

@mobstaj Can you please post in this Mate SE specific thread if you get any reply from huawei folks?. Thanks again.
I got my Mate SE last week. It is on Build B101. Is this what the rest of you are on? Or is there something newer?
Jon
Yes, same build...BND-L34C567B101
Will the se get the face unlock update like the honor ?

Thanks guys. I was wondering since the B101 build is "old" for some of the 7x's. I did notice though that the security patch is current as of Jan 2018.
Would be interesting to find out why in the US the 7x with 4gb/64gb is called the Mate SE, and in rest of world it is a version of the 7x. Seems like a weird marketing strategy. And the Honor guy on this forum can't/won't answer questions about the SE. You'd think that the Huawai/Honor staffing would be combined in the US.
Just wish we had some idea of when we might get a beta of Oreo.

In that case, would you or anyone else happen to have a clean dump that I could use? I know I should have waited till official firmware has been released but I was really eager to root it and whatnot. Ended up flashing something I shouldn't have and now I can't boot.

I don't and we are all waiting for either the stock images and/or oreo beta.
In case you are wondering about rooting your Mate SE, someone already confirmed the same process for the international Honor 7x works with the Mate SE.

I decided to test it out and see if this would work for the Huawei Mate SE (BND-L34), and it does! Went through the normal bootloader unlock stuff, and then I flashed your TWRP image and it worked perfectly. Sideloaded SuperSU because it seems like everything on the internal storage is encrypted (can't see files, and all folders are gibberish names), but it looks like it worked fine.
I have root, and I've got TWRP on my brand new Mate SE!

need help to build oreo rom, i have time to do it.

Hello friends, I am not a computer technician, I do not have official courses, but I am self-taught.
I've done rom`s from the beginning for several smartphones and the rom`s that I use in my phone, are changes of other that I encounter on websites mainly here in XDA (but never distributed just self use).
Since I have a good PC and a VNS-l31 smartphone and I do not see development in relation to Oreo and Treble, please i ask if there is someone who knows how to upgrade from one version to another (nougat to oreo or among others) and the necessary tools (whatever software neded to compiled extract and check) to do it, I will try to do my best and if i have alpha level results, I publish.
Thanks to all who can help me, because it will not only be for me, but for all users of this smartphone. Thank you.
Sorry my bad english.

You are right, but it is for AOSP lovers (where many bugs remain, such as GPS or Bluetooth)
Ultimately, it cannot be bad to have more than 1 maintainer for Oreo ROMs
