I assume you registered before for this. If not, you have to face internal version water mark on screen.
There is a solution if not registered before,Simply run this command by adb: "pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.meizu.flyme.update"

I did a little research, and flyme 8 only be available for p6p on december this year. This file you posted, its for p6p? You recieved because you have applied before, right?
edit2:. Okay, i succeed to install yhe rom, to remove the water marker (really annoying actually) and install google services. know lets wait and see the battery etc. I confess, im disappointed, Flyme 8 still on android 7.0? C'mon....

Brother, this is a daily version means it is not beta or stable. Yes, stable will be released on dec. No i don't got the file because i registered before.It's directly from developers. You should understand that meizu p6p is 2016 flagship. We got 2 android updates back. And we can't expect a Meizu to give more than that.Also most new phones from meizu will not get base updates.Pointing out the factor that flyme 8 is built with google material design and android 10 frameworks. You will feel the difference from your use. I already told you if you are not registered before, you need to do adb. And update files for registered users will be only 40MB. I posted this big file link got from community just for you all. Mainly for those who forget to register and want to try before what is coming.

adarsh ​​m4you, that's what I said earlier, maybe I wasn't explicit, sorry. I already removed the watermark with the adb code. tell me then where can i register for flyme 8? Another thing, I ran the antutu app, and previously it had a score of around 134,000, now I have 130,000. Lost performance with this test rom. Let's hope they get better with the official rom.

OFFICIAL Wileyfox statement regarding Cyanogen/Upcoming updates

Wileyfox has just posted the following statement on their Facebook page:
Wileyfox said:
In light of the recent news from Cyanogen, every Wileyfox user's experience will remain unchanged - hooray!
This was expected and we are confident with the smooth transition planned in an upcoming over-the-air update for the entire Wileyfox product range that will migrate away from Cyanogen’s refocus strategy, and on to a purer Android experience – enhanced.
We strongly recommend that all current and future users accept the upcoming update request to ensure they are on-board for the future. This will include the ability to maintain the same experience as before and the added ability to partake in updates and upgrades to the software in the future.
We will continue to push this update to your device, and for new users we again recommend they download and install this update upon purchase.
We have been ruthlessly testing this and planning a distribution for this update, with a rollout to be released beginning today with immediate effect. Once this transition is implemented and users accept this upcoming update, our first order of business is to focus on delivering Android Nougat 7.0 across the portfolio beginning as early as February, and the entire portfolio by end of Q1 2017.
We value our customers above anything else, and therefore will now take full direct control on all such upgrades to ensure all devices, not just the flagship’s, will get these regular updates.
What this means is we at Wileyfox are still committed to continuous security and Android updates for the entire user base (old, current, and new), a bloatware free OS, deeply integrated value added services, and a promise to maintain a no bull**** attitude to the Wileyfox user experience.
We hope you had an amazing Wileyfoxmas. We look forward to 2017 and beyond, in a Wileyfox world of no bull****!
Instructions to download and install your latest update:

I can't confirm with a screenshot because although I have my phone I am still waiting for the update notification. I know that the new software will not be Cyanogen OS because in their official statement Wileyfox say:

I have a rooted swift trying to push an OTA update - so either I need the latest update they are pushing as a zip (safest) or jump to cyanogenmod nightlies (which I'd prefer not to do) since TB currently can't "write" to the SD..
Does anyone have the latest OTA as a zip?
yep

Hi,
Can we expect to have firmware source code for this device?
Thank you
I wrote a mail to Wileyfox Support to get some information about working together with the community, this is the response:
Hello XXX,
Thank you for your response.
We do not supply drivers for our handsets, these can be obtained by doing a simple search on most search engines online.

On FB i get a message from Wileyfox NL, that the update to 7.1.1. is coming for the Swift-2 serie in 2 weeks. After that the Swift-1 and the Storm in 4 or 5 weeks en at last the Spark in the end of april.
*Wileyfox news message* Just received from London about the developments of our upgrade to Android 7.1.1 Nougat. As it looks now, we will first upgrade the entire Swift 2 series within two weeks. Within 4-5 weeks following the upgrades for the Swift and the Storm. Spark & X + will receive the upgrade by the end of April.
All upgrades will be offered through the WiFi network. Make sure the battery is charged at least 50%, otherwise will be unable to start the upgrade. Important dates remain neatly on the devices, though we recommend to always have a backup of your important data.
All Wiley Features of Cyanogen OS will continue to exist in this upgrade.
If there are any questions please let us know. Good day!
Regards,
Wileyfox Netherlands
I'm especially awaiting the improved Doze.

Well it was meant to come out today but wileyfox said on Facebook that it's been delayed so you could be waiting a while :/
In the last 2 days my Swift 2 rebooted by itself 3 times.
Then this morning I had the message to upgrade to 7.1.1.
I accepted, but I had not enough storage available (1.4GB the download...).
I made a bit of cleanup, during which it rebooted again, and now I don't have the option to upgrade: if I check, it says I'm upgraded (version us still 6.0.1)
Anyone has similar experience?
How can I perform the upgrade?
Thanks:

Android Oreo

Do you think we'll receive the update?
Sorry, but someone must start the discussion :silly:
50% yes, 50% no

If Honor do want lie, yes Honor 8 must receive Oreo. XDA wrote some devices receive Oreo before end this year, probably only flagships, after will continuing with another phones. We will see how much is useful/helpful Treble project
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If Huawei Nova or even old P9 lite got EMUI 5, Im sure Honor 8 will receive EMUI 6.
Ps Honor 8 should have EMUI 5 on start, we waited short for Android 7. For Example Huawei P8 still receives updates (security patches etc).
Rommco05 said:
P9 lite receive Nougat and EMUI5 (I'm was on beta testing) I think Honor 8 receive Oreo. Btw I have old p8lite and this phone receive every month security update... What is awesome, but Honor is a bit slower
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Its that what I said maybe my english is not clear.
Huawei support his phones anyway. We'll see soon, I hope H8 will receive Oreo
As you can look by screenshots, different sites have differents toughts about Honor 8 "Android Oreo" update. The German site says it is in list for a possible update, the other it isn't in that list (but they are not sure because they marked the phone as controversial) . Now nothing is official but we have to wait (or push) Honor to take a decision anout the future of this great phone. We have to understand if "two years update" means "two major updates at least" or just "we will push security updates and won't abandon H8".
I am certain we will get it, but I am also certain it will take ages to release. May be wrong on both my opinions though.
i created a thread earlier https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/help/andorid-o-honor-8-honor-8-pro-honor-9-t3633124
the chances are very less to get OREO
I believe the most important question is not whether we will receive EMUI 6.0 (which is a possibility according to some sites: https://newsnexa.com/tech/huawei-android-8-0-update-emui-6-rom/ ) but whether EMUI 6.0 will implement Project Treble:
https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/05/here-comes-treble-modular-base-for.html
Essentially Project Treble (which will be enabled on phones shipping with Oreo) will allow the "Windows Update for Android", receiving security (and possibly other) updates via Google and not via the manufacturer. Or at least allow Huawei to implement said updates faster. Without it, Android 8.0/EMUI 6.0 will be the last useful "official" upgrade for our phone.
In any case, I won't hold my breath..
Here's the information from the Chinese forums
https://forum.xda-developers.com/picture.php?albumid=14397&pictureid=56089
https://forum.xda-developers.com/album.php?albumid=14397&pictureid=56090
As far as it's true, I do not presume to affirm, but judging by the screen and the crooked translation, there is hope to get an update to EMUI 6.0 based on android 8.0 at the beginning of 18.
I think it isn't true...first the "oreo" logo present here replaced the "EMUI" logo that should be there. This can be easily changed by "Emui theme editor" with or without root. Second, the other info could be faked by any root user through build.prop editor. I think it is a theme applied to nougat with some build.prop info changed

BLU R1 HD Update V. 9.2

Hello, I just got the notification to update my Blu R1 HD, the version of the update is v 9.2.
Someone already updated? is stable?
Thank you
Yes it's stable, no changes except the April 2018 Android Security Updates.
I'm very surprised Blu is still sending out updates for this almost 2 year old device, that's better then some major brands!

Don't give them too much credit. They are just attempting to make up for the numerous security debacles that they had with most of their phones in 2016 and 2017. Plus the security update is from Google, not Blu.
Blu likely only pushed the update to stay on good terms with the FCC. Who recently put Bans on Huawei, and ZTE. Why else would they update a two yr old phone, when they cannot provide promised nougat updates for several phones.
They are not reputable, they published marketing literature, made claims on social media sites, and in interviews where they promised nougat updates for phones released in 2017 that came with Android 6.0
A year later no updates.
I understand that Miui 9 can be installed on this phone. If I can figure it out I will share the files here.
Will there be a modified version of 9.2 for people with rooted phones?
Thanks!

I guess I am not stock since I am rooted and running xposed and removed ads.
So am I correct that to apply this update I should re-flash your 9.0 full ROM and then run your updater script before installing su and xposed and running the commands to delete the ads?
Thanks!

Yes. Look at the last couple post on the modified stock romntjread. Confirmed installs of the patch from stock v9. They went the long way and "de-bloated, un-rooted, etc".
Re flash v9 then the patch should be fine.
8 still need to edit the first post over on that thread to add this patch.

You can buy a LeEco S3 for $89 it has 3gb ram,Snapdragon 652 ( 8 core processor) 32gb hard drive, 1080*1920 resolution, 3000mah battery and about 30 working custom Roms. We have 4 leecos in our house 2 LePro 3s and 2 Se3s.
I just sold one of my Blu R1s for $50, almost pays for an SE3. Blu should embrace the developing community and release the source code to these phones, imagine the respect they would get.

Hi, I don't know how to update my stock R1 HD, I had only updated it from the same cell phone to version 8.4 but it only indicates that there are no more updates available, how then can I put this version 9.2? thanks

Any way to remain on stock, but get the security updates?

I've use ROMs in the past, but never with the Essential phone. In fact my phone has run so well, I've never even factory reset it a single time, let alone put a ROM on it. But with Essential gone, I need a way to keep my phone secure.
I'm wondering what the best way to keep stock android (nothing wrong with stock) but allow myself to get the latest android updates as they come out. In looking at the ROMs there still seems to be some issues with bugs, and since this phone is my daily driver, I'd like it to be as stable as possible.
So is there:
1) A way to get the PH-1 on stock, but still get the important security updates somehow?
2) A rom available (even if android 9) that works for PH-1 that would be super stable but also get all new security updates?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I could have sworn I saw something that basically said you can download the latest stock version (that includes security updates) and flash it every time there is a new update. But I guess I could have misunderstood?

That was the case until Essential went out of business - you could do OTA updates, or download and flash yourself. The stock security updates were only provided by Essential, and the Feb 2020 update was the last one for this phone...

No way to stay on stock & get security updates (well you will get some direct from Google ie the Google Play System Update, the last one shown lower down this page
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/2020-03-01
and can be found in your settings under security, but its only a fraction of patches)
That means your best option is probably the Android 11 GSI when it's out of Developer Preview in a July (?) and hope it's bug free, else Lineage etc .... not that you want custom roms, sorry.

Basically I'm looking for something safe and stable, whether it is ROM or otherwise. Right now I'm stable, but not safe. So you think my best bet is move to Lineage (to become safe) and then switch to the GSI when it is out of developer preview (and stable)?
From what I have read and asked here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/development/rom-evolution-x-4-1-69-t4073153
This ROM will give you what you are asking for as far as regular security updates are concerned. I have been waiting for Lineage to release an "OFFICIAL" version of Android 10 for our PH-1's but so far nothing. Also I would not mind going on Android 11 but then I do not think that will get monthly security updates either so I am thinking about trying this Evolution ROM out.... I have never worked with a phone with A/B slots so that is my only concern but after reading all the threads I am starting to understand how that works.
Hope this info helps you out.

(actually its been out a while, by the looks of it, but no mention here)
I'm the same boat as you, had hoped to flash LineageOS 17 months ago then move to Android 11 in few months time, guess it's decision time now.

Basically I'm looking for something safe and stable, whether it is ROM or otherwise. Right now I'm stable, but not safe. So you think my best bet is move to Lineage (to become safe) and then switch to the GSI when it is out of developer preview (and stable)?

Guess for stability & functionality it would have to be LineageOS.
Looks like May version is ver 17.1 (Android 10), not sure how this compares to previous version re bugs/working functions, but that means previous ver is already a month out of date on security )

Also DO NOT use the Essential USB cable & DO NOT relock boot loader!

I'm on EvoX the only thing tht is not t working very well, is tht if u fast forward or rewind on Netflix ur phone reboots, hopefully fixed next update, but I'm happy with this ROM, the touch lag is almost non existence for some reason, glad they managed to fix tht. Also L1 certification is still there. The 360 camera workes better in this Rom for some reason. The best part is the customization though, so much

Very strange that no one has started a new thread in the Custom ROM section about this... (This being an official release version of Lineageos 17.1) you would think it would be bigger news? There is still only an Unofficial thread... strange..
Anyway IronRoo let me know what you decide to do and how it goes... I am still on the fence as my PH-1 is currently working perfect on stock 10 but it is of course on the Feb 29th security patch... plus I haven't done a custom ROM install since my LG G5 but I hear it is like riding a bike... lol :silly::fingers-crossed:

For LOS, I think we should wait until their server is back, and few more releases come out.
LineageOS 17.1 for Essential is so new, only couple releases, and still in updating state.

Yes, many will agree, though I'm OK with giving it a go but I need to buy a new high quality USB cable as kid damaged my Samsung one and have only a cheap 6" one which I'm not sure I trust to flash without bricking phone.

Just did a quick websearch and a few have tried flashing it reddit and here on the 16 thread, and it's suggested wait for next release (first recovery had issue, but now fixed, but next release of ROM should have a few fixes & Lineage build servers are down so not sure when new release will drop)

How do we use adb to pull apps? I just came back to the TMO stock Room and want to get rid of the crappy TMO apps

It's stable and I feel my phone snappier even though it did not mention about the general performance improvements or fixes like the last update (111MB vs 123MB)

Thanks! I disabled some stuff. Got rid of the two TMobile apps I couldn't uninstall. How many of the TMobile APK s can I get rid of? Also is there anyway to get visual voicemail on the dialer?
Nevermind! It just randomly appeared

Notice anything new? The stock 8t global/EU Rom is in a really good place. Really stable and battery life is great for me. I really wish Tmobile wouldn't mess with the software

How did you deal with getting 5G up and running? That is the only thing stopping me from going to global/EU
