FRD-L04 Oreo update, here we go.! - Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Finally, FRD-L04 Oreo (Android 8) firmware has just appeared in FF and we are going to get EMUI 8 (Oreo) soon after testing it by Honor team and giving the approval.
A roll back package has also appeared.
I guess we will be getting it in a month time.
What do you think..?
Change log:
EMUI 8.0 not only brings you the latest version of Android (8.0), it's also boosted with a lot of great features and improvements to make your device more intuitive, faster and safer. We highly recommend updating now.
[Highlights]
● Smarter
A new floating Navigation dock lets you perform frequently-used operations from anywhere on the screen. Newly added home screen shortcuts let you quickly access the app features you use most frequently. Simply touch and hold an app icon to display a shortcut menu.
● Faster
AI-based optimizations deliver greater stability, fluidity, and speed. The system boots faster, videos are more fluid, and images thumbnails load rapidly even in huge volumes.
● Safer
Enjoy enhanced protection for your system and data with new updates to system security.
[Find out more]
● Smart tips recommend you faster and smarter ways to operate your phone, appearing in specific usage scenarios and responding to your usage habits.
● Contacts and Email now let you sync the career details of your LinkedIn contacts.
● Settings has been redesigned for clearer and more intuitive organization.
● Gallery now features a recycle bin that retains deleted photos for up to 30 days. Accidentally deleted photos can be restored with a single touch.
● Phone Manager has been simplified to make managing your device easier. Standard cleanups are faster and deep cleanups more thorough.
● Your device can now connect to two different Bluetooth devices at the same time, such as a band and a car.
Important:
1. Automatic time zone uses location information to set a time zone when Location information is enabled.
2. Due to the redesign of Settings, the location of certification logos, legal information, and regulatory information (if applicable) has been altered.
3. To improve your experience, Smart notifications will be updated when you are connected to Wi-Fi. You can disable auto-updates in Settings.
4. Your device may automatically download and install updates from your carrier and device manufacturer (may use mobile data) after the update. This feature is enabled by default. You may disable it in Settings > System > Developer options.
Update notes:
1. You are advised to back up data before the update. After the update, certain pre-installed third-party apps on Android 7.0 may be uninstalled. They will still be available in App Store.
2. Some third-party apps that are not compatible with Android 8.0 may function incorrectly after the update. It is recommended that you update these apps to their latest versions in the Google Play Store.
3. This system version can be rolled back to the official version of EMUI 5.0 in Phone Manager. Rolling back the system version will erase your personal data. For more information, please contact the customer service hotline.
4. If you encounter any problems during the update, please contact the customer service hotline or visit an authorized Huawei service center for assistance which you can find.
5. Your home screen layout may be rearranged slightly.

It'll be quicker than a month. And honor USA doesn't test anything, there is actually only a small team that represents them. Chris being the head guy there and whom I talk to on a semi regular basis.

Do you mind asking him if they'll fix the gyroscope issue with this next update? Snapchat for example spins like crazy when trying to display AR features.

That was actually supposed to be a patch in B396 which the team skipped. Hopefully they've integrated that patch into the oreo firmware.

Yeah I know, that's why I wasn't happy with the B397 update. Let's hope it gets fixed because the EU variants had an update that fixed the issue so I was really looking forward for the issue to be fixed here.

Yeah ik, but for us they skipped B396 and went straight to B397 from B395. I felt that the B396 does have the fix for that issue but even then we still haven't gotten that.

That's amazing thank you!
Iv'e been waiting for this thread to happen! lol
after many variants got oreo I started to worry

For someone with a rooted and unlocked phone, what would be the steps to flash this new update without losing the Unlock? Because I think it happened last time I tried it.

Either using HuRupdater or the 'Flashing Unapproved FW guide'. Both will work.

[D6603][BETA][OFFICIAL]Sony Official Android 6.0 Marshmallow - Beta testing

With a considerable delay, Sony is inviting users from Spain, Italy and Netherlands, to beta-test new official Android M firmware.
Source: http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-external-link/xperia-beta-program-android-apps-on-google-play/

I think we are all looking forward to see it in action, and from the beginning, one of the most important question:
Will this firmware be using Verfied Boot (aka. dm-verity) to protect the system?
because if yes, it will render the system unrootable on Locked Bootloader...
So guys and girls from ES, IT and NL ... go on, write your thoughts....
UPDATE 12. March 2016
INSTALLING
You can decide if you want to "install" original unmodified firmware by flashing zip file in recovery or restoring backup of Android M. In any way you need to be on pre-rooted latest Lollipop (v .264) before flashing. Reflash stock if you are on custom ROM. The reason is that this firmware needs bootloader and baseband from v.264 to work.
So to use backup of original Android M Beta:
This was kindly provided by @juanpirulo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65777398&postcount=158 and steps to install from @jjwrongjj http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/d6603-sony-official-android-6-0-t3312448/post65781545.
To flash zip:
There is flashable firmware available thanks to @masuods70 at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65871019&postcount=440
For D6633 dual
Users of DualSIM D6633 can flash patch: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65877968&postcount=459
ROOTING
This ROM is can be currently rooted with /system R/W access on both LB/UB - need to root in recovery after flashing the system
To root both firmwares you need to stay in the recovery after flash/restore and flash SuperSU, byeselinux and RICdefeat.
There is no prerooted zip available at the moment.
THERE is NO RECOVERY for locked bootloaders.
There is dedicated ROOTING thread by bro @wolbreak
The first good news is that dm-verity is DISABLED on this Beta Marshmallow and it means that the firmware can be rooted. As @Black_Eyes found, rooting can be done with KingRoot v.4.82. However, the root is only partial, because it doesn't disable RIC service which is preventing writes to /system (thanks to @lee480 @shoey63 @EricCartmanez )
I am sure this is excellent news as surely guys are now working on RIC part of the deal.
This news also means, that it can probably be pre-rooted as soon as FTF will be available.
Annoying it's restricted. Sony really are going slow with Marshmallow!

If I recall correctly the lollipop concept didn't have small apps either. The concept is just that a concept. I don't see Sony removing any of their signature features like small apps or stamina mode. I just hope that marshmallow brings us the automatic Headphone compensation from the z5 since that can't be ported. I have tried

Sony will not remove small app function
But i'm wonder what sony will change how it looks in MM.
Hope the Beta program will come next week, so we can see what sony will do on their old UI.

I think it will not have any changes there. What concerns me is that Google restrict Overlay apps by default so one should turn it on all the way on the Setting page. If Sony can automatically enable the setting, it's great
I registered for Beta too without VPN and got the Confirmation Email already, now lets see if they choose me again. On Concept i was invited to test already. I hope dm-verity will not be included but i think that it will probably be included because of Security reasons like in all new Xperias above Z3.
I'm on the current 6.0.1 concept. The Beta program seems to be incompatible with this ROM. I assume we'll have to wait for the FTF file or at least downgrade to official 5.1.1?

[HELP] thread for custom ROMs

Hello everyone.
This is a
HELP thread
for asking questions regarding custom ROMs and the issues that you might have with them for this device. Before you post, please read the FAQs at the bottom, and then proceed to ask your question.
Note - the members may or may not provide you a step by step solution, and will provide you links, please check those links carefully, and if you still do not understand, ask your question again.​
If the community notices real issues (which are different from the usual "Does this work, does this not?" questions), it will be forwarded to the respective ROM thread (or we'll request you to forward).​
Help us in keeping the custom ROM threads clean and help the developers to focus on important issues.​
Device Specific Information
Codename athene in development circles. Here, we often use G4 and G4 Plus interchangeably with athene. That's why ROM titles have the word ATHENE in them. Don't be confused.
Device names according to manufacturer - XT16xx. The xx in the end changes as per region. For instance the Indian version is XT1643.
For more information regarding the device, and the availability of ROMs, etc, go to this [INDEX] thread.
Yes, the INDEX thread is mine, I'm not self promoting, I'm linking this because the older one has not been updated in a long time, and no amount of messages to moderators seems to have any effect. If you wouldn't mind, please send a message to the moderator to make this the sticky INDEX thread to help Moto G4 Plus users.
​
Note: this information is out of date.
Common bugs
Fingerprint enrollment issues. Flash Nougat to resolve this. No, you have to flash, if you don't want to, please do not post bug reports. Follow this guide by @rahulsnair to update your phone to Nougat soak test. We have a soak test because the release version has not yet been captured for us to use. You can also (although the developer still won't accept bug reports) rename the fingerprints to add more (credits @mason2smart). Also, try this as mentioned by @__Maddy.
Camera/Video recording issues. Use the built in camera, NOT Moto Camera (the camera you had on stock ROM) as your camera. You can also use any other recording app (Cameringo, Motorola Camera, Google Camera all work just fine). And yes, Motorola Camera is different from Moto Camera. Camera issues are being sorted out by the CyanogenMod team (and will reflect on all ROMs that are based on CM), and only once those issues are sorted can the developers for this device sort any issues with ATHENE out. Note that for Moto Camera to work, you need to set the DPI (Settings > Display > Display Size) to the default one.
Video playback issues. Please use this thread by @strongst for providing logs and other details. The only OS that doesn't seem to be affected by this is Vanir.
Unable to share images/screenshots from gallery or filemanager. Sort this one out by formatting your internal storage. Credits @smitharro, here.
Chop-Chop/ Torch issues. Do a reboot. It should work then.
VoLTE issues. Follow the instructions on this thread, if that doesn't help we need logs, or we really can't help.
Mobile data intermittently stops working. See this post.
CyanMod/RR bugs​
Camera issues. Update in next build.
CypherOS bugs​
Video Recording doesn't work. Use Footej/Cameringo Lite for now.
External SD read error in inbuilt file manager. Use another file manager.
LOGS
(and why we keep asking for it.)
Imagine you make a cake. And you give it to a person, who says he doesn't like it. And then leaves. You have no idea what went wrong with your food, why that person doesn't like it, what that person would see as an improvement in your cake. You eventually go mad as more people keep saying they don't like your cake, and leave without further information.
This is exactly what happens when you state your bug (that the developer cannot easily reproduce) and then leave it at that. The developer cannot figure out what went wrong. So, to find out what could possibly have gone wrong, (s)he requires a log. The log tells the developer what all errors have occurred, and what could be done to possibly fix them.
Logs are also known as logcat (and other types). Find a helpful tutorial on how to take logs here.
Best way to present logs is to either upload the file to a hosting site, or paste the contents on pastebin, or hastebin, and share the link here.​​
How to report issues here​The aim of this thread is to become a source for all members to ask questions on issues they face in all ROMs. So report your bug after specifying the ROM, and the build date. For instance, if I am using CyanMod from Silesh.Nair, which he uploaded for use on 21st April 2016, then I start my issue as
CyanMod 20160421
and we'll help you sort out your issues as much as we can, and if we are stumped, the developers will help you out. ​​
Okay, last one, stop.
Solution For Single FP over MM baseband
If anyone don't want to Flash Nougat Soak or Modem, follow this procedure ( I'm using 5 FP over MM baseband )
** Firstly you will need Fresh start **
On fresh start complete setup wizard process, DON'T add security and FP when asked..
After seting up device go to
settings > security
Add your preferable unlocking option,
Now for FP,
Add your 1st FP, it will get successfully enrolled,
And now you have 4 FP left to add..
** Follow common procedure for remaining 4 FP **
Now add next FP ( add one FP only)
Obviously you will get "Enrollment Error" on any next FP..
After every Enrollment Error Close Setting app completely ( Force stop is preferable, or better do reboot)
Now open Setting again and do same...
*** Note ***
Don't add next FP directly without closing Setting app otherwise you will get "GHOST FP"
You will be not able to remove those FP unless getting Fresh Start again...!!
Count how many FP you have added, i haven't tried adding 6th FP, so better to count 5 FP only..

I'm no expert, but to the best of my knowledge, these will be upstream bugs, so devs will have to wait for CyanogenMod team to fix them, before they can implement the fix.

N baseband does not work with custom roms. At least not for me.I installed soak test N and I stopped being able to make calls when I installed the roms. I suppose they only work with the MM baseband.

Is 2g working on other roms or is it a problem only on CyanMOD?

The brand new user interface for EMUI 5.0 was inspired by the pure blues and whites of the Aegean Sea. The interface is simple and smart, and EMUI 5.0 comes with enhanced, powerful performance that allows mobile phones to operate more smoothly. A safer system also improves the security of your privacy, payments, messaging, and apps.
A cleaner, more interactive interface A brand new UI and effects inspired by the blues and whites of the Aegean Sea. Simplified gestures, with 90% of core operations completed in 3 steps
Enhanced features System operations more fluid, allowing you to view a massive amount of images, browse websites, and perform searches faster than your peers
A more secure system Improvements in the security of your privacy, payments, messaging, and apps
HiBoard HiBoard is located on the far left of the home screen, and presents suggested apps, lifestyle services, news, videos, music, and other apps and features in one place. It also automatically generates reminder cards for Smartcare.
Gallery By combining device and cloud storage, you can view images stored on the cloud and locally in the same place. The cloud gallery will automatically categorize your photos by people, cuisine, scenery, and location. EMUI 5.0 also supports slow motion video, and removes the feature where the Camera is launched by swiping downwards.
Camera Under EMUI 5.0, the Camera now supports downloaded plug-ins, giving you a richer photography experience. Landscape display and the interface for parameter settings have been optimized in pro camera mode. Online translation has been removed, and the QR code recognition feature has been shifted to the Scanner on HiBoard.
Messaging For EMUI 5.0, we've worked with banks and carriers to automatically recognize phishing links in fraudulent SMS messages.
Dialing With intelligent cloud-based data analysis, EMUI 5.0 automatically blocks fraudulent or spam phone calls and SMS messages. During emergency calls, the phone interface will display your geographical location.
TrustSpace Provides an independent app space, which isolates malicious programs and protects payment, finance, and asset related apps.
Calendar This is a brand new, comprehensive scheduling management feature, which presents Smartcare, Messaging, and Notepad in one place. It also allows data syncing across multiple devices through your Huawei ID.
Notepad Supports sharing notes as documents, images, and emails over social media.
Settings Eye comfort mode: Effectively reduces blue light, adjusting screen brightness to make it warmer and reducing eye fatigue. Huawei Share: Allows quick and easy sharing of images, videos, and other files between Huawei devices using EMUI 5.0.

Everything above b192 is beta!
People still think the versions they have got via hicare is final.
Hicare is beta versions all of it.
When you see a version that upgrades from EMUI 4.0 (not 4.1) to 5.0
Then we can begin to believe it might be the final ces on.
People on beta versions get new betas via ota cause you are in the beta program.

It is not the first time huwaei sent out beta versions to certain countries, this happen with mate 7, poland got lollipop very early, but it end up being the beta.
As long as it is just and your country, I do not trust this, when I see more countries get the OTA like this.
The fact you got this OTA when you where on a marshmallow beta version explain why you got this, no one that does not ute beta version will not get that, if you are on beta version you will get beta versions via ota. If you are not on beta version you will not get beta version thru ota.

[ROM] Custom ROM for MTK6580 Smartwatch (X5 Air / LEM5 Pro)

There has been quite a bit of development on the full smartwatch front recently; notably the OpenWatch project that is in full swing and pretty much covered all the main manufactures and variants that are available.
Hopefully a new OS will be available shortly; however in the meantime Id like to offer this ported Resurrection Remix to the community as I have been asked a number of times to release it for testing.
I have been using this for about a fortnight now and so far am very pleased with the results. Battery life has been tripled with hibernation, and root access provides more potential.
Please note that the UI has not been optimized for round screens however anything awkward can be done via PC and a screen cast app. Im using Vysor.
Installation:
Install .zip via TWPR in the usual fashion. Factory reset wipe is recommended.
As always please process a full backup of your existing software inc. all partitions you have available (NVRAM etc) before flashing so you have a safe return point.
Details:
Resurrection Remix ROM 5.5.9 for MTK6580
Android Version: 5.1.1
Kernel: 3.10.72+
Ported for: Finox X5 AIR / LEMFO LEM5 Pro
Known Bugs:
Bluetooth - file transferring is 50/50
Display not optimised
No clock engine - please use Ricktops Universal Launcher to regain this function.
Palm brightness - use home button to turn screen on and off.
Suggestions:
Please allow 5+ minutes for OS for intial loading after flash.
Kernel editor - reduce max CPU frequency to 600Mhz
Install Xposed framework for Lollipop 5.1.1
Greenify (and enable framework in Xposed)
Change DPI to 200 - play around with this to see what suits you best
Enable expanded desktop for all apps
Use Battery Saving Mode and Airplane Mode when possible.
Once you have set up everything do a further backup to save you setting everything up again.
All credits to the Resurrection Team for their ROM. I have not altered any aspect of the original, simply ported this over to my device.
This should work on any 5.1.1 smartwatch if properly ported using your stock files. Please see ported folder in download link to see which file I have corrected. Replacing these files with your own stock resources should work.

Here is the ported Resurrection ROM for the Thor Pro - I honestly have no idea if this will work as I cant test it, but in theory it should?
You mentioned that you have a full backup already, I would suggest copying the BACKUP folder from the TWRP folder on your SD card to your PC so you can transfer it back in the event you need to do a full wipe if this bootloops. If you are using SPFT then chances are you will return back to stock recovery unless you modify the stock fw. From experience, its easier to just do a fresh flash when these thing dont work.
If you see the RR logo, wait a good 5-10 minutes for it to load. If it doesnt, chances are the port failed. In which case Im sorry.
Id also grab the Universal Launcher from an apk mirror so you can get the watch functions back and also using Vysor to set it up makes it much easier. Suggestions are in post above.
With regards to the connect phone app, it should work - Im using watchdroid to ping notifications over and it works with no issues.
Good luck! And let us know how you get on. Fortune favours the bold.

Awesome man, thanks a lot! I will test it tomorrow because it is 23:30 here in Portugal so its late. But tomorrow once I get back from work I will test it. Btw does it include the "connect phone" app to be able to use with wiiwatch? Or do I have to install later as system app or something?

I hope it works for you; would open it up for more people to hopefully improve it.
Im sorry Im not familiar with connect phone or wiiwatch? If its a app that came with the watch you could maybe look for it on the manufactors website? However WiiWatch - Watch Assistant is available on the app store (or an apk mirror) if this is what you mean? Could try that.
Keep us posted.

The connect phone app comes pre installed on the stock rom and that's what makes it able for the wiiwatch app to find the phone...and I have no other alternative because I have an iPhone:/. Anyway I will try the rom!
It didn't work...some errors like "error 7" and some "symlinks missing". I think I am going to sell it because it simply does not work properly with the iphone, it causes major battery drain on my phone because of the wiiwatch app to connect=/
But thanks a lot for your help!

Damn error 7 - i removed the asserts from the updater script - so it could be a number of other things.
Im sorry it didnt work mate. I would be up for trouble shooting it with you but would be so hard pin pointing the problem without a device to test it on here. Best just wait for OpenWatch to be released, or as you said sell it. I wonder what the delivery would be from Portugal to UK? : )
I appreciate you giving it a shot, ill remove the link so no-one else tries.
All the best.

I am now waiting for the battery to run out because I don't know the combination to boot into twrp xD. Also, unlike cellphones, forcing the power button doesn't turn it off, it just keeps rebooting. Thanks a lot for your help. I contacted zeblaze and they said they would look into the issues. First they sent me a firmware to try (which was older than the one you based the rom on, which was the same that came with my watch lol). Zeblaze seems to be very unorganized, even their site does not have firmware available to download...its a shame really, I wish i had bought a lemfo or kingwear!

If you want to speed it up remove the backplate and follow the battery ribbon to the motherboard. If you use something pointy but rounded you can just pop the contact up (disconnecting the battery) then push it back on. But you will most likely need to reflash with SPFT unless you have a way of booting into TWRP from power off.
It is ashame they arent more on the ball with updates etc, ive heard this alot with zeblaze. definetely go LEMFO or KW next - ive been told these have a very secure future and support is now officially by the RASC community from what I know.
Yeah that’s bad they don’t want to support the Thor pro is a really good budget device with big screen and outside readable, we still have the original firmware and not updated, yeah I have an IPhone to and the Bluetooth connection is not so good but it works the Bluetooth calling works too good and I have to install an app Volume booster because is so low and for the position of the hardware is really bad this device has potential. I am waiting for my Lemfo LemX
Good work on the port. Im trying to get RR on my Microwear H2 (1gb 16gb) I have a working TWRP recovery. Could you point me in the direction of the port guide you followed for your watch so i can try and port it myself. Thanks
Also, have you managed to port any higher versions of android for your watch? I am aware of the Openwatch project, which brought me to your post.
EDIT: Just read the last few lines of your 1st post. Will have a go as you have suggested. Thanks

Hey realme fans,
realme UI has grown rapidly since its development. Our developing team has invested a lot of efforts. And now it’s time to share it with you.
Open beta is going live!
Before you participate in the open beta, please read this thread carefully to ensure your open beta experience goes well.
Please read and complete the corresponding steps carefully to get started with your open beta journey:
Process
1. Read the "Reminder" and "Open Beta Plan" in this thread (Understanding risks and plans)
2. Read "Attention & Instructions" and "Common issues" in this thread (Understanding update methods)
3. Follow the "Attention & Instructions" to set your phones before updating (e.g update to the latest version & back up data etc.)
4. Download and install application APK to apply for open beta
5. Read and agree to “Must-Knows” and “Privacy Policy” after installing the APK, follow every step properly according to the guideline.
6. Apply to join the open beta, upgrade to realme UI open beta version
7. Start your realme UI open beta journey
Reminder
There are two main purposes for the open beta:
1. Let our fans experience new realme UI features in advance;
2. Collect feedback to help us find and fix possible problems. Also, collect useful suggestions to make realme UI better.
Please note that as the open beta version is still under development, there may be some unknown risk & issues.
For example, some applications (including third-party applications) may be unstable or incompatible, affecting your experience.
Therefore, please consider carefully whether to join the open beta in advance.
At the same time, taking into account user experience and compatibility issues, open beta activities may also be suspended for a period of time.
In addition, before you upgrade the open beta version, be sure to back up important data on your phone in advance.
Attention & Instructions
1.To-do list before updating
(1) Before updating the open beta version, please back up your mobile phone's important data and confirm that the backup is complete and successful.
(2) Before updating the open beta version, please make sure that the current version of your mobile phone is on required version
realme X2 Pro- RMX1931EX_11_A.10
(To check the version number: Settings> About phone> Version).
If your phone is currently not on the required software version, please update to latest version first.
Please note, if the phone version is not as given above, after the application APK is installed, your phone will not be able to receive neither the open beta version upgrade nor normal version upgrade.
If such cases happen, the user needs to cancel the public beta application in order to regain the normal version upgrade.
(3) There may have some third-party application versions that aren’t compatible with Android 10. Therefore, it is recommended to update all your applications to the latest version in Play Store before updating the open beta version.
(4) Please ensure that the your phone storage is more than 5GB. Otherwise there will be a risk of update failure. (To check storage space method: Settings> Additional Settings> Storage).
(5) Please make sure your phone is not ROOTED.
(6) Application APK is not compatible between different models. Please install the application APK strictly according to the model i.e. realme X2 Pro only.

(If it is about Camera app and photo-taking, please remember to attach a sample photo for developers to understand the issue)
About roll-out
(1) We don’t provide roll-out method in this open beta.
(2) You can exit the open beta form the application APK, which allows users to exit the open beta before downloading the OTA of open beta version.
(3) After downloading the OTA of open beta, or after upgrading to the open beta version, users will not be able to roll-out.
Common issues
1. After the upgrade, it may take a longer time to boot for the first time, if there are too many third-party applications on your phone.
2. After upgrade, in order to improve the system operation efficiency and eliminate potential safety risks, the system will perform a series of actions such as application adaptation, background optimization and security scanning. so, the system will occupy more CPU, memory and other resources, which may cause slight hang and fast power consumption. We suggest that you can leave it for 5 hours after the phone is fully charged or use the mobile phone for 3 days normally, then, your device will get back to normal. If you still have any issue, please feel free to contact us, thank you.
3. In the realme X2 Pro open beta version, there is abnormal calculation of system launcher in Power Usage. The battery actually consumed by system launcher is lower than what is shown in Power Usage. This is caused by wrong calculation of the system, but the actual battery usage remains normal and not affected. This issue will be solved in the official version.

It doesn't seem, it works for few people, and it is not so difficult to see an option, if you have it there.
No updates
