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
there's a custom recovery released for the device here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/testing-twrp-2-8-7-x-huawei-p8lite-qcom-t3187758

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?

Hy,i want to buy a P8 Lite but i want to ask wich one is better, the version with Qualcomm MSM8939 Snapdragon 615 or with HiSilicon Kirin 620 ?
P8 lite with kirin 620 chipset is better because of updates (android 6.0 now) and devs working on custom ROMs for this version.

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.
It seems that in their latest kernel release, Sony has ported kernel 4.4 for all of their devices, including Xperia X which has the same SoC as Redmi Note 3 does, Snapdragon 650. Is anyone trying to port it over? Does anyone think it is feasible to do so? I have been trying to but I don't have much experience so I haven't got it to boot yet. It would be really awesome not to be stuck at an ancient kernel version...
Sony didn't share their sources yet.
Plus alot of stuff doesn't work on Xperia x with the new kernel

Well, you never know. Same was said for Kirin 620 devices like Honor 4x and P9 lite, but now they have custom Nougat roms.

If some dev supporting your device he would definitely work on to bring latest roms..
Is someone supporting your device??
Hello !
Has anyone the pixel experience Rom (Android Pie) unofficial for the Huawei p9 lite please ?
It's wiped out of internet ! couldn't find neither on sourceforge where tutorials were headed to nor in pixelexperience website..
It's the same rom for honor 5c and honor 7 lite since they both have the same HiSilicon Kirin 650.
I would be thankful to any user providing me this rom.

Android 9 but I prefer the Pixel experience.
Any custom rom having android 9 ?
Pixel Experience P unofficial ROM requires Project Treble support. Unfortunately, P9 lite isn't Project Treble compatible device , (Project Treble requires Android 8+) . There's no way to install this Custom ROM on device with Kirin 650.
