Update to Pie - Honor 8 Lite Questions & Answers

Anyone knows if the device will get official update to Android Pie?
2017 devices are getting the update
Just wanna know, I've been thinking about installing a ROM, but I got used to EMUI and I actually like it

You can install a custom ROM such as Descendant, if you want Pie. I have it on my Honor 8 Lite and it works great.

I also want to use stock Android Pie for my phone too, but I can't unlock the bootloader. Is there a free way to do so? Thanks!

Lineage OS + MIUI Stock Apps?

I am a owner of the Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro (Prime) since July this year.
At the moment I am using stock ROM MIUI 8 and loving all the cool Apps.
My only problem is that the ROM is still on Android 6 Marshmallow.
Now I'm thinking about switching to Lineage OS cause I loved the ROM also on my OnePlus 2.
I want to know now, is it possible to install all MIUI 8 Stock Apps like:
File Manager
Scanner
Compass
Mi TV Remote
& Clock Application
If I could use all this Apps with Lineage OS I would probably Root my device and switch.
Hope some Users could help me with this.
Greetings kazumamon
Some will not work on Lineage os i think. But u can can find some of those on play store u need to search with Miui tag. If you want to try backup the apks with Android assistant and try on Los. I think it's worth a shot for you :highfive:

yes. there are many custom roms for your device.
No you cannot flash any custom rom on your device. Custom roms are made specifically for a device and flashing a wrong one may cause permanent hardware damage and bricking your phone
I have a list of custom roms that you can check out by this awesome guy Hassan Mirza.
You can check out his work on his blog hassanmirza01.blogspot.com
Be very careful to read the instructions and do some research beforehand.
And yes you have to flash Elite TWRP created by Hassan Mirza so you can access all partitions.
All instructions are on the blog

Should Root or Wait for Update!?

What you guys suggest!? I want to root my Phone but I am waiting for The Oreo Update
Should I wait Further or not!?
Personally I was wondering the same, but decided a week or so ago to unlock the bootloader and install lineage 14.1. Happy with my decision, it actually fixed a bug I had with NFC only working occasionally. Also good to be able to use my root apps again. I won't upgrade to Oreo until after the official Oreo release and developers have had a chance to fix the issues there seems to be with Bluetooth calling, votle, imei, etc.
So my answer would be sure go ahead, as long as you know what you're doing it for and understand the risks.
I agree with NZedPred, nothing wrong with rooting and installing custom rom, but I wouldn't install any Oreo rom until/if official Oreo for this device gets released. Just too many problems.
Same here waiting for Oreo before root

If you can fix the various common problems that may come with custom ROMs, go ahead. Otherwise, you could stay stock and wait for the update. It all depends on you if you want to have the latest Oreo (8.1 and the latest security patches).
If you just want to root, it's fine too but you'll still lose warranty.
Not sure, i have zero problems on ResurrectionRemix Oreo.
I was thinking the same and now i'm glad that i did it. RR working like a champ.
some custom rom are stable and u can use for daily driver
I'll wait. There's nothing revolutionary about Android 8, the custom roms are almost always buggy, and also all these reports of IMEI 0 are troublesome.

Android Q update and Rollback

Hello,
I tried to install a custom rom on my phone, but i never achieve it...
I always stuck on booting screen (soft brick).
So i decided to flash official rom with miflash.
I had a rollback error (rollback version 1).
So i remove the check in the all_flash.bat file
I made the flash successfully.
I tried to install the zip file for android Q and i got this error in picture attached.
looks like current android version is different from that in the recovery package
Any idea how to fix it?
Rollback anti is still 1.
Thanks guys!
There are Global and EEA official Android 10 ROMs. Check if you pick the right version with your actual ROM version.
Thanks for your Reply.

PDJEUXM
SFJEUXM
LOL what??
I think it's not possible to install the eu rom cause it's a beta rom.
Until we get like a version 11.0.4.0 or something Higher i think it's impossible to install.
Welcome to the K20 or Mi9T Forum!
