Huawei P9 Lite Official Lineage OS Support? - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hi,
why do the Huawei P9 Lite don't get official Lineage OS Support?
I dont't mean METICULUS payed Version.
And no, i can't do it my self, I'm not a programmer, sorry, but I'm willing to donate! THX

Because it would need a very stable device tree that we don't have, a complete source code (Huawei often release broken source code). That's why usually official supported device has a Snapdragon CPU.

Huawei P8lite (ALE-L21) Kernel Sources???

Hi there, is there any chance we could see kernel sources for the Huawei P8lite ALE-L21 (International Kirin 620 variant) soon? I'm thinking of buying this phone and hoping to develop some custom roms (Like Cyanogenmod) for the P8lite and Im aware that the kernel sources are out for the ALE-L04 (US Snapdragon 615 variant). Its the lack of kernel sources that are putting me off buying this phone
Honor 4c source
I searched the whole internet but didn't find sourcecode or roms
i only found the sourcecode of honor 4c ( CHM-U01 ) it has almost the same specs .. the same chipset only diffrences in battery and in internal storage
if you can use it to build roms you can find it on huawei's site (EMUI download page)

Thanks but I would be very reluctant to use another phone's kernel sources for this phone because of the difference in sensors and partitions and the fact that the Honour 4C is still on 4.4.2 KitKat
TWRP

Its great to see TWRP for this device but without the kernel source, it will be nearly impossible to build CM from source unless you have amazingly good development skills, which I dont have.
Kernel sources are out!

Sorry, got a Moto G (2015) in the end so unfortunately I can't build it for you

			
				
Nothing really to be sad about. Those chips never get kernel source.

			
				
So no custom roms for our little huawei p8 lite?

			
			
			
			



			
			
			
			
			
			
			

			
		

	
		

			
Cm14 when will be available for p9 lite
			
			
			
				
Hello guys
I just want to know when will cm14 will be available for p9 lite
:good:

			
				
CM13 is still being developed and you are asking about version 14. Read the damn forum before posting.

			
				
Once you port it, test it and release a ROM, easy as that

			
				
first we need a stable cm13 rom and after that we will need a developer for cm14, that will take more than a year...

			
				
Depends on how fast you can learn to port a ROM and make it happen is my guess

Hello guys I want to just know that can I use other device source tree , kernel source tree and vendor tree for building a new compatible rom for my device Huawei Nova?
Because both devices redmi 6 pro and Huawei Nova have same Snapdragon 625 with msm8953..
Is it possible using common device source for making new compatible rom?
