OpenKirin ROMs don't work with AL10 - Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

I tried every single OpenKirin ROMs(latest ones from the developers). They said that currently these ROMs are not working with full Chinese AL10 models because of CDMA modem or something. Hopefully it'll be fixed in the future but now, we're out of luck!

Now, now, calm down, we have to wait for Alcatel to release the Idol 3 Marshmallow source code (They seem to be taking their sweet time) before any custom ROMs can be made. Likely we'll only see CM13 and other CM-based ROMs as many other projects (including other CM-based ROMs) have died out. Luckily CM13 has many languages, so just wait for Alcatel to release the source code or the Marshmallow update for your region before complaining.

It's not the lack of CM that's the problem - that will come when it comes. It's the fact that after two weeks, there's still no news about Marshmallow outside of NA. AFAIK, most users in NA have marshmallow now, but those of us in Europe and elsewhere haven't got it yet.
You should have bought a nexus device, then.

He is right, Sultan has the best camera HAL made. And his updates are always on point. The new Nougat are still making there way slowly. I will try the Lineage OS and see how that feels
The OnePlus 3T has different localized 'editions' (Chinese/Europe/American) with many different model numbers, but this is rarely acknowledged anywhere, even on stores and seller pages... and ROM pages. So are the custom ROMs all compatible with all OP3T editions??? This is important to know before I buy.
S o if I order from eBay (f.ex. here http://www.ebay.com/itm/OnePlus-3T-...hash=item3adc4f7b23:m:mabzF9tgMzSIzry7j2PXvYA but it doesn't matter much from where I guess and most will likely be Chinese edition, with power adapter suitable for your country), of course ensuring support network bands in my country, can I be sure that I'll be able to use the bootloader unlock/custom recovery/custom kernel/custom ROMs?
Probably most editions are similar with difference bands and maybe completely identical hardware, but it still seems like missing basic information.

Why aren't you buying it official if the price is same?
Because I'm not in the US. If you have a different idea, I'd gladly hear it.
Funnily enough, the official store doesn't seem to specify what model number they send you, either. Though it's probably only the American one, still missing basic info (model...).

Okaaaaay.... Repeating myself here:
-Most sites list compatible bands. Almost no sites cite actual model you get (e.g. A3010, A3000, A3003).
-That site (oneplus.net) doesn't ship outside the US, which is where I am.
I'm guessing that if nobody says anything about it, then custom stuff support all OP3T variants, but confirmation would be nice

The sites are not going to tell u the model you get because they send it to u by the address u give them for delivery. So if u give a USA address they send u a USA model.

[ROM PORT REQUEST] MIUI 9 for Mi5 based on Android 8.0 Oreo by Xiaomi.eu to Z2 Plus

Hi Devs,
It's a humble request to all Experienced (Recognized) Developers/Young Developers/Members of XDA to PORT MIUI 9 ROM based on Android 8.0 Oreo for Mi5 by Xiaomi.eu to our beloved Z2 Plus device...
I know MIUI 9 by YouLinw exists for our device, but that PORT is purely based on Chinese build of MIUI 9 for Mi 5 based on Android 7.1.2 Nougat and is very limited to global users. No international user understands Chinese very well and they prefer the language in their preferred locale and Xiaomi.eu project enables the same and provides multi-language Official ROMs (PORT) by Xiaomi. Plus it is backed up by built-in Google Apps, so there's no need to perform any Gapps installations after flashing the ROM itself and is TWRP friendly ROM...
User/Dev Narshi Shukla has done exceptionally well in maintaining the MIUI 9 thread and providing help/support for that particular ROM PORT by YouLinw and changing/modifying many aspects of the PORTED ROM itself to make the ROM more usable to Global end users but still it lacks these three points, First is Android Oreo build and Second Gapps and Thirdly the addition of International languages/locale.
Considering the above benefits of having Globalized version of MIUI 9 for our Z2 Plus, that too on 8.0 Oreo build and with GApps included is something that many users are looking for...
I was trying to PORT this ROM my self but I'm facing technical problems with my PC hardware, as such my motherboard has got damaged and was sent for repairs to Service Centre and is with them since last few weeks and till now, no report on repairs done by them/working condition/service completion of hardware by the concerned SC... So I would request other Devs to Kindly step forward, if possible, please...
Your efforts are always appreciated and welcome guys...

Well, atleast let the ROM go stable for Mi5, as it is released just few days ago in beta. After proper release, porting maybe an option.

Agreed but the ROM is already out of Internal Alpha Testing to Private Beta Testing to Public Beta/Developer/Weekly ROM now... We can wait... There's no issue in waiting for this ROM to get PORT though...

Some users reported heat and just 3 4 hours sot, force closes here and there and there are many Oreo features are missing,
Let it progress and lets see how stable it will be after 2 3 updates,
Porting Xiaomi eu roms among other are in my list, but time management is a problem for me so it may take time.
Hope to see more devs/users trying to port MIUI based on global Branch.

That's what I said but I think MIUI 10 will be properly compatible with Oreo as MIUI is always little late implementing all the features from AOSP like the amount of time taken them to apply notification reply.

Android Pie 9

When will we get android pie Rom properly
In many Mi android cell phones have Android 9 already :crying:
Soon, you can try the treble rom for the moment, but it doesn't work in some models.. i believe devs are taking their time to give us an stable ROM in the first release (also it normally takes 1 or 2 months)
I'm also thinking like this
Andorid Pie Treble Rom works fine on XT1687
I accidentally wrote everything has a title.

if you dont have an unlocked bootloader it wont let you flash a global rom.
this is basicly to prevent people from buying chinese versions from aliexpress.
the problem is that these sellers open the bootloader and install a fake global rom / global rom on it...
if you have an unlocked bootloader you are fine, your playstore wont pass safety net though
...
Now Xiaomi Phones which are manufactured in China Factory/China Hardware, can't be able to run MIUI Global ROM with Locked Bootloader.

I just hope LineageOS will come to our phone so I can be done with all the Miui Xiaomi BS
Are the call problems on global rom irrelevant to this?
or somehow Xiaomi made the global rom incompatible with Chinese models?

Oooh, believe me, it will...
How are those AliExpress sellers unlocking the bootloader and installing fake global ROMs? Do they have an army of people making fake MIUI accounts and waiting for a month for an unlock code? Sounds to me like they use logic probes to flash the fake ROMs directly.

That's a good question.
If it is so, why would they do that?
What's the benefit of this for Xiaomi?
This looks very bad.
They can make all the excuses they want, but I think there's a pretty clear agenda here.
I'd be surprised if there's still a development community for any new Xiaomi phones in 6 months, given how fast this is deteriorating.
As long as they keep device price down, bootloader unlockable and release kernel sources everything will be fine with development community... That's all devs need.
MIUI fans are those that should worry...
Prices are likely to stay down.
The other two ... doubtful. Some people are already waiting 3 months for bootloader unlock codes. If that becomes the norm, that's development stone dead.
They've also done absolutely nothing about releasing kernels in a more timely fashion, despite promising it repeatedly over the last year. If anything they've gone up slightly.
People ignored the warning signs with Huawei, and others before them, or hoped for the best (I did). Look where we are now.
They actually released Max 3 kernel source pretty fast, less than a month after device launch...
https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/nitrogen-o-oss?files=1
The thing is no custom roms coming out of China forums which makes me think this device has no China market success... That wasn't the case with first Max. Custom roms started popping up first week after release even without kernel source...

The problem is understanding real difference between the China & Global versions, how they decide to allow or not allow flashing of the 2 versions.
In the official announcement they imply this restriction is only for devices released under 2018.
On 4pda they seem to think that there is no actual hard difference ("model identifiers"?) between Global and Chinese Mi8, but there is for the respective Mi2s, for example.
If I read correctly.
https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=906971&st=940#entry75262442
Looks like all restrictions are in bootloader - unlocking, ARB, market variant. There is no hardware differences/restrictions between any of the Max 3 variants period. Otherwise you will not be able to run different MIUI versions with unlocked bootloader.
devinfo partition keeps the bootloader unlocked status. Not sure where the bits defining China/Global device are kept... yet...

That may be but it's the people who flashed the Global Rom on a China device who have the problems
with phone calls / broken modem.
Would they have built in a restriction in the Global Rom so you could not install it on a
China device to work properly ???
We won't know till proper official Global rom shows up on en.miui.com. All I see right now are global roms from under the table so to speak full of bugs.
Most of us purchased the Mi Max 3 which was manufactured for the mainland China market, because the "global" variant of the phone was only released a few weeks ago in Singapore, Hong Kong, etc. If the official warning on the Xiaomi site that phone's manufactured for the Chinese market cannot flash global ROMs and vice versa, then our solution is to use the xiaomi.eu ROM. Xiaomi.eu is a modified version of the China ROM, but is entirely in English and other European languages with full Google framework services. The MIUI 10 8.8.9 China weekly development ROM available from xiaomi.eu is rock solid. Once Xiaomi releases a China stable MIUI 10 ROM for the Mi Max 3, xiaomi.eu will tweak and release it for the English speaking world, so for those who bought their Max 3's before a global variant was manufactured will be fine as long as they use xiaomi.eu.

I'd be very surprised if this isn't selling well (very well) in China. It's an incredible value proposition, and large screen & large battery are seen as very desirable in both that and other Asian markets.
However, I think the 3 month wait for BL unlock *is* the norm now for Chinese and select other Asian users .. whereas rest of the world it appears to be totally random. Could be a couple of hours or it could be 3 months.
I think you'll find that's the reason why there's little to no Chinese development activity. As I said ... thin end of the wedge, IMO.
