[Announcement] Harry8242 is still working on his ROMs ! :) - Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi all,
I've just talked to @Harry8242 and he eventually decided to continue his work on Vibe K5 and K5 Plus, despite the bad comments and repeated demands on his rom about bug fixes, new features or ETAs.
So basically what he said is :
A new feature is coming : SIM disabling (on LOS 14.1 for now, but soon on Oreo)
He will keep updated his AFH (for those who will ask, a little research will do you good, and is the basis of XDA )
He will read suggestions, but not take in account all of them
He will never again post on XDA to share or notify for updates
That said, for those who would want to reply, I would suggest this POST to be a "thank you" post to @Harry8242 :good:

Oh! many, many thanks @Harry8242. All your effort is really appreciated by me.

I wish that every noob who made harry go away again would be thrown into a hole where all noobs cry for their bricked phones.

Help from experienced Developers!

Hello devs,
I have had a Micromax Canvas 2 Colors phone since a year and a half now. Custom/Themed ROMs were uncharted territory for me till June of this year, when my warranty was about to expire. I decided to use the VionicL ROM then. One heck of a ROM that was. Later, in the span of months, so many developments came in for the device, CM11, CM12/12.1, MIUI, and so on. I was very happy to see that there are so many people working hard on providing us the very best experience on our phone. But, like most of the average mobile phone users, I used to download the ROM, install it and enjoy, nothing more than that.
Now, as the time has come for me to switch to a new phone, I am switching to Lenovo K3 Note. I have had digitizer issues with my Canvas 2 Colors and the battery back-up was a little on the poorer side. So, I'm finally giving my phone away to one of my friends and moving on. Although, I would've loved to experience the final, stable build of CM12.1. Thanks to all the devs that worked hard on that. @Al3XKOoL : Especially you, man!
Now that I'm going to be using a new phone, starting from the 28th of October as per Flipkart, I looked up the phone on xda. Unfortunately, there is no forum for the phone. I was a little disappointed, but even C2C did not have a forum a few months ago. So, I tried looking for ROMs, and I have to say, I was a little disappointed with the progress in new and variety of ROMs. I agree that it is a fairly new phone, but there are a lot of people who own that phone, so I was expecting better results. And another point that many people like me would be searching for ROMs.
The help I request from all the developers here is to teach me to develop ROMs and Porting ROMs. I am absolutely inexperienced here, but I'm eager to learn. I'm 17 years old and I am studying 12th grade at the moment. I would still love to learn about ROM development and Porting so that I can provide the people with some ROMs like you all have. Although, I will not be helping out the C2C family, I can start to help the K3 Note family in any way I can. I hope some developers are interested in having an acquaintance.
Please consider this a sincere request and if anyone can please help me learn, I would be very, very grateful to you. I know that I can't learn it overnight, and that is why I want a proper guidance.
If anyone is interested to help me learn about the things mentioned above, please contact me through a message.
Thank you and sorry for annoying you lot with a long post!
And I will be indebted forever to all the developers in the C2C community for giving me and all the C2C owners a pleasurable experience. Thank You!
Sorry for tagging you people, but I hope you don't mind and you people are the most recognized devs in the C2C community :

first of all thanks for our words..im still using my WIKO RAINBOW as my second phone..ive moved on to VODAFONE SMART ULTRA 6 and im testing MIUI 7 LOLLIPOP with a ported rom already that is booting and running with TWRP ..although is very buggy its ALPHA version still, that is nice..
for developers/porters whatever is not easy to teach someone..we have our work to do and that kind of knowledge we have, it took us a few years and at least some dead phones, hard bricks and a few other bad things that could happen to our phone..so my advice to you:
read
search
talk with other users
now and then ask for help when you need it, some users know a lot
you need time and patient..be aware that many times things will not go as you expect or wish..best of luck and keep following us in my blog and youtube..RAINBOW / MMX A120 C2C still is a good phone.:good:

Hey, thanks for taking time out to read my post and replying.
Nice to hear that you've been working on a different phone and rolling out new ROMs for that phone too!
Yes, I know that everyone have their own work, family and personal stuff and everyone are developing in their free time or as a hobby. I will be doing the same too as I have my studies as a bigger priority.
I understand it is not easy to teach anyone about developing, at least guiding is possible, right? I would be glad if you could guide me in what to read and where to be careful etc. stuff like that.
I already bricked my K3 note once and revived it somehow. I know it will not be an easy road or it is just as easy as downloading a ROM and flashing it in recovery, most of the users can do that. I know it is hard work, I will try to read, but there is so much knowledge on XDA alone that it will take me forever to read, understand and be able to implement. So, what I am asking is, if you could let me know on where to begin and in which direction to go after that, I would be indebted to you.
Again, Thank you for taking some time out, I know you have loads of work, and I hope I can be as good a developer as you someday!

There is a Chinese developer who has rolled out CM12.1, but the English translations are not complete, so there are some chinese fonts still left behind, and there are some bugs in that too. I would not recommend using that ROM for daily use till the bugs are sorted out and the full English support is included.
With some support, I was planning on compiling CM12.1 for the K3 note. I've noticed that major developments for this phone is on some Spanish and Russian websites and not on XDA. I was a little sad to see that, but hopefully, there are a lot of developments on XDA too!

Saw another post on the same subject.

@v1n0d Stop asking for nougat, we are lucky that we received marshmallow, devs are doing the possible to make nougat
And, just PLEASE, when you start typing the title, check for similar threads who are asking the same question (It'll show links when you start typing). So instead of creating new thread everytime, just post on the relevant thread.
Stop making thread asking for nougat, and please, do not bother developers.

Resurrection Remix 6.0 Oreo Redmi Note 3(Kenzo)(Official)

Greetings to all RR users
First and foremost we would like to thank you all for being patient for the RR-Oreo release.
We , Team RR would like to announce that the wait is finally over .
Today we will be releasing first builds for RR-OS based on Android 8.1.0 .
A selected devices will get this build today (not all) because this has been a sudden release .It will take time for maintainers to apply and start maintaining to we request you to be a little more patient for that .
As maintainers know, they can apply to maintain for the device by making a pull request on our Settings app against your device name .
We apologize again for the delay for this version as Google rebased their entire trees when coming from 8.0 to 8.1.0 which would have cost us time anyways .
We sincerely thank you and hope you enjoy this build as it comes with a great ton of features and some large UI improvements in RR configurations and other fixes in code since RR 5.8.5.
Builds will be shipped rootless.
It's themable and supports OMS Oreo substratum themes .
Unfortunately there have been no translations for RR settings yet so translators can contribute at.
We hope you have a great weekend . Please follow proper flashing instructions and present a proper logcat on finding issue .
Last and foremost we'd like to thank LineageOS as our rom is based on it . Also a HUGE thanks to all the open source Roms out there (there are too many to list) that have a large contribution to the features presented in RR .It could not have been possible without them.
Downloads will be up on (FOR KENZO ONLY):
I will comment the link down below.
‎
If your device isn't showing , wait for your maintainer to upload the build . It's a kind request for users to refrain from asking for ETA of each device . It will come when it's ready
Happy flashing!
I'm not the developer but i can answer all your Questions!

NO Brother until @karthick mostwanted or any other dev make Treble supported Custom Rom for us.:crying::fingers-crossed:
Although we are sooooooooo..... much lucky to get Android 8.1 for karate and karatep.
Really Dev(s) are so much Hard Working, they spent Days and Nights for fixing bugs in ROM.
So, we should be satisfied with what we have got
Cheers!

Testers wanted Ressurection Remix Pieand Oreo

I'm going to start building ressurection remix both pie and oreo for the note pro 12.2 P900 and T900. However I don't have the device at the moment. I'm looking for testers as I don't have the device so expect bugs and things to be potentially broken. I will be posting builds here and when things are more stable I will make a post in the development section. If you are interested please join the telegram group

Bless you:laugh: I'm pretty busy, but I'm willing to try when I can and give feedback. I've got a P900 wifi with twrp 3.1.1. Lineage 14.1 rooted with magisk.
That's great news.
Got a P900 v1awifi now running with TWRP 3.3.0-0, LOS 14.1 unofficial plus Magisk and nano Gapps.
I also have a P900 and I could test your builds from time to time.
Thanks a lot!!!!
will test, but at this point, focus only on pie, and at one device at once, but thanks for your efforts man
When will the ressurrection pie for samsung p900 be release here?

Thanks everyone who replied. I will try and get my hands on a device as soon as I have the money however I am an unemployed student on the plus side at least I have time to build . Pie would be simply amazing. All the sources are there so when i get time I will start building. I'm really jealous of the IPad pro on the IOS side so this is the next best thing. Pity there are no more really big android tablets to replace the note pro though. But if I can build pie it dosen't matter anyway. Once RR works and is stable I might start building some other Pie roms like Lineage OS 16 or AOSP Extended
Add me to the list of testers.

I, also, would like to be a tester.
i also have an P900 wifi tablet, want to add me to test branch
This is indied the only large android tab out there ^^ hope it can survive a few years extra with pie update

I will build as soon as possible hopefully by weekend. I first need to fix my broken unbootable manjaro(linux) system once that is done I'll start building. I hope to get the first unnoficial build up by monday. Fixing bugs will be interesting as I don't have the device and I'm new to android development . It's also end of semester and I have deadlines that need to be met. I'll do my best though. I will post the testing builds on this thread I'll setup a telegram or discord where people can report issues.
I have a P900 running Lineage 14.1 (not sure what version of TWRP).
Anyway I am willing to be a tester.
I am not familiar with generating logcats (or any other logging software) but I am willing to help.
I'll test. P900
I would like to participate as well. As I see so far, I would be the only one for the T model
p900 pie please
Sorry guys the build has been pushed back till next week anyone interested in being a tester feel free to join my telegram group I have setup. I will release builds on xda as well as on the telegram channel. Any questions feel free to ask on telegram rather than XDA. Ressurection remix Unnoficial by minilandl
https://t.me/Ressurectionremixv1awifi
any update on the pie builds? I im not asking for an ETA, but want some info if there are some compiler bugs or somting like that? And how's ure pc doing?
"Haven't Tried just saying thankyou and being nice .I will never buy a samsung device as I dont like the company and how everyone buys them and becides the Oneplus 3 has much better development. "
I have a sm-p900. What made you change your mind?
Please release pie for this device.
