In most cases is kinda a lottery to install successfully a treble ROM because of the Huawei encryption. Firstly I recommend to upgrade to the final and latest version of Oreo (B360) (using HuRUpdater) which is the final version and then flash this TWRP recovery:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-lite/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-t3777582
Here you have 2 options: You can format /data and then factory reset after you flash the ROM OR flash back the stock recovery and wipe data from there. The later option works the best for most people.
If it's a system.img then you can flash it by fastboot and keep the original Huawei recovery and do a wipe from there.
Like I said it's kinda lottery so keep in mind to have the stock firmware handy if anything goes wrong.
thanks for the advice
i will have a play
the only thing i dont understand is that i thought the Treble ROMS should be device non specific and then ANY treble rom should work........... as the underpinning "drivers" (sorry im used to explaining my thinking in windows speak) are allready sorted and on another partition on the phone ready to go
If im missing somthing please can someone correct me or explain it better as although i can and have flashed all of the android devices i own my knowledge ends there with Android.
Hi
I'm new to Huawei Devices and have a few questions about the P Smart because I want to get it soon.
Is it fully treble supported?
How to unlock its Bootloader?
If it's fully Treble supported can I install every treble ROM that supports that CPU family?
How is EMIUI?
What Custom ROMs do you guys/girls recommend (In this forum and treble forums)
What settings should I change EMEDIANTLY after getting my Device/EMIUI
Any Xposed/Magisk Modules recommended for this Phone.
SuperSU or Magisk for EMIUI Stock?
Thanks in advance

Hi lots of response from your questions I see! Lol. Are you still on psmart? Where have you got to with it?
My experience: MOS =ministry of solutions unlocked my bootloader, I paid 9£ for them to downgrade firmware and give me unlock bl code, I've been around for sometime but I struggle with fastboot, dev terminology and new devices esp Huawei!
I got twrp+magisk mostly for viper4. Although I'd like to use quick step and xposed although I'm reading people have probs with xposed and it's not compatible I might be reading old threads but I ain't willing to risk a brick. From what I see thus far there isn't much in the way of development and it seems like those using custom ROMs are desperate to get back to stock because it's so stable.
Be good to hear what progress you have made

well for the both of you xposed beta 4 test 1 that can be downloaded direcly installed from xposed gitbub works but not all the modules will work and some modules will bootloop and brick you
there are 0 P smart devs... there are devs like askuccio and hacky86 making treble GSI for our specific kirin soc hi6250 but not for P smart
the most stable custom roms are omnirom and RR and lineage 15 maintained by
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/roms-openkirin-aosp-collection-t3828806
project openkirin... they are stable.. but the camera doesnt have AR althought it is stock camera.. wifi bridge and app twin won't work and other small bugs like i cant use the camerra to scan barcodes to make payments in my banking app.. the rest of the p smart threads are dead.. global search in xda for openkirin, kirin659 , hurupdater, hi6250.. cos our only custom roms are treble GSI's
So...I'm not an EMUI fan and as you know I have a Huawei P Smart and I downloaded Treble Checker and it's supported (Slot A) but I tried everything I could to unlock the bootloader and I can't...
Is there any free way to get my Bootloader unlocked on my FIG-LX1???
Thanks in advance,
Diogo
Only way is with DC Unlocker for like $5 which is not much.. i also have FIG-LX1 thinking of doing it soon also. Maybe you can try first and tell me if newer ROMs are any good.
DC
I have unlocked bootloader ...Its useful for getting root ...But project treble is a bust for p smart .. all A only GSI images and custom roms comes with some sort of bug that forces everyone back to stock and there is no dedicated dev with a p smart of building specifivcally for p smart ...But you need root to use the phone in a meaningful way and not to be a slave to huawei.

What are some of the best features you use on P Smart after getting root.?
Good day. Can I ask how you unlocked the bootloader
hello everyone.
i have tried a few custom roms on my samsung galaxy grand prime sm-g530H and discovered the rom that works best with it for me is this version of resurrection remix - https://forum.xda-developers.com/gr...om-resurrection-remix-n-5-8-3-galaxy-t3596669.
the problem is its preloaded with magisk management. even after uninstalling magisk through twrp, i am not able to run some important indian apps (eg - m-adhaar) because they still detect my phone as rooted. i have already tried unrooting but that didnt work. magisk is not able to hide root from some apps that i need through magisk hide and other methods i have read about on this site either.
can some kind soul please provide me a link of a root-free rom of resurrection remix or regular lineage os? preferably android version 7 and/or 8? thank you in advance.
my phone specs :-
samsung galaxy grand prime
sm-g530h - A.P - XXS2BRLI
CP - XXU2BPB2
MSM - 8916
p.s - i changed the update script in the roms to install from boot without magisk but of course it still installs the magisk management.:cyclops:
also - magisk hide is not working for one particular app- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=in.gov.uidai.mAadhaarPlus
HI,
These Apps have problem with the custom rom too ( normally) and they are able to recognize the custom rom in both case. It doesn't matter rom is rooted or not.
So You have to hide this thing with Magisk or ... .
Is your magisk passed the safety net test successfully?
If it passed then I can't help you anymore and if not try this one:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/gr...om-lineageos-17-0-galaxy-grand-prime-t4034919
yes

actuall yes. thats the last rom i tried. but its not stable on my phone. display keeps turning off and phone becomes laggy too. which is why i have mentioned that i need version 7 or 8 n particular.
as for your mention of these apps having problems with custom roms, i am not sure if thats entirely correct or not because i have tried other roms which are fine with the apps but not stable for my phone in particular. so theres my dilemma.
as for magisk test...yes. it passes but hiding is not working in 1 particular app. also my requirement is non magisk and/or non superuser preinstalled rom if i can find one. maybe you could help me with that? as long as the version is 7 or 8.1? coz 9 and 10 are not running properly on my phone ( lags). i am kind of limited in using internet for a couple of days...so its hard to thoroughly search for one. which is why this thread.t hank you for your reply and help

I tried a few Oreo based custom roms and this is the only stable rom that I found in internet . Which is a really great rom but it doesn't work for you because Rom will be rooted during the installation by Magisk 16.3.
I don't have any informations about 7, If You have Telegram Account , There is a Grand Prime 530 group. May be you can get a better help there about Android 7.

thanks a bunch bro. i have tried this already though. along with magisk, it has some issues like powering off instead of restarting and a little bit of heating - at least on my phone - if i remember right. anyway i will check out the group after creating an account on telegram. only 1.5gb of usage left today on my phone. thanks again. much appreciate it. :angel:

hi bro.
after a lot of frustration, i tried this one again with bitgapps. turns out that the other versions of gapps were making it lag. its running nicely on my phone. it didnt have magisk installed or supersu for that matter. but some apps still showing that 'you are on a rooted device' or' you are using a custom rom' msg.
so i installed magisk again only to be able to surpass detction for the one particular app i needed and it worked ( yippy!). but other apps, for eg - whatsapp etc still detect the device as custom rom or rooted. so i am still looking for a way around it.
also particular rom shows the msg on startup saying -' there is an internal problem with your device. contact your manufacturer etc. am just ignoring the pop up msg for now.
the rom ( which is android version 10 ) is running surprisingly smooth and fast though.
i wish there was a way to get rid of that msg and unroot the device completely ( doing it through superuser pro and magisk unintsallation - with uninstaller zip and through manager didnt work).
so well, there it is.
As do i

I saw it on most Android Pie and Q custom roms which i tried. I think it's something about kernel or Rom. There is a video on YouTube about this issue, He solve it for an Asus phone which didn't work for me.
For the record, did you hide Magisk manager and chose a nick name for it before hide root from other apps with it?
yup. i did.

i did hide magisk and gave it another name and checked all apps to be hidden in the hide list.
this video you mention, is it the one where he sets ro.treble to false from true? if yes, then i downloaded build prop but my ro.treble was already set to false by default. i was really hoping that would work. lol. alas! let me know bro.:good:

I don't know this is useful for you or not . By the way it's an other stable custom rom . ( Oreo based ) with 2 small bug but on safety test, CTS profile result was false for me.

I just realized that my phone model is fortunave3g not fortuna3g . It is a long story that why I made this mistake but since there is no official Twrp for fortunave3g I installed the Pitch Black Recovery for fortunave3g then I flashed a Lineage 17.1 for fortunave3g with it. now everything is fine and I don't see the internal problem's notification any more . Also I should thanks itexpert.120 for helping and his custom recovery.
should i try pitch black ?

ah, i see. i used to get error 7 on the latest twrp even after editng the updater script. so i switched to twrp version 3.2.x. then there were no errors while flashing any roms. do you think changing the twrp version or doing it again through pitch black recovery might solve the issue for me? also, please tell me if pitch black is as good as twrp in backing up and restoring. coz i have had to do that a lot. zeeshan(itexpert.120) told me to just ignore the error. hehe. but i cant do that!:cyclops: let me know bro.

Actually the main problem was with my rom not custom recovery . But I had to install a correct custom recovery for installing the correct custom rom.
Pitch Black has the same features even more. Actually It based on Twrp.
I can't be sure, but if you've seen Error Seven when you using the Twrp 3.4 , then there is a good chance that you've installed a wrong Custom recovery. on the other hand I had camera problem which seems you don't have it.
Hello! I've modded already some devices, but I never got in my hands a device that lived so long.
Since I cannot find any infos about using latest Magisk on a such old device and I don't want to mess it up, I wanted to ask here some questions.
First: generally, is ok to use a recent version of Magisk on every device, or there are some devices with some kind of differences that needs a "custom" or "specific" version of Magisk?
Second: is ok to use directly the Releases on https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases ? I saw that this is the only official way to get it and that magiskmanager is not a related site.
Third: any advices on modding the P8 Lite 2015?
Model runs MIUI 4.0.3 and it's on Android 6. It's the single-sim version.
I already have TWRP working and phone is factory-reset. Yes, I had access to my unlock code, so it was pretty painless to unlock it.
It needs to be fully functional, so I cannot use custom ROMs (it seems like all have problems with YouTube and/or Camera). If there are some advices here, I'm free to listen.
I was planning on installing Magisk (root, generally) to uninstall Huawei crap plus a better control over kernel, if there is any on this device.
