[Question] Possible Pixel Rom Port to HTC 10 - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Taking in consideration the hardware specifications of Google Pixel, seems similars to HTC 10, would be possible a port of Pixel ROM ? Sorry my english

too early to tell.
No ones publicly knows what underlying software changes Google Made with their Pixel phones. Besides the double of everything partition which might cause issues. There could be a multitude of checks/restrictions they have implemented.
Just wait until a factory or rom dump becomes available.

Searching a phone under 5 inch for lineage

Hello,
I am searching for a phone under 5 inch for current lineage os (and likely with support for next versions). It seems to be nearly unpossible. It is quite hard to check all supported phones for the display screen. Does someone knows if there is somewhere an overview of lineage phones where I can sort or filter the display size? Does someone uses such a phone with lineage?
I use moto e 1St gen condor. 4.3 inch and cheap. Will upgrade from mokee marshmallow as soon as audioFx is fixed or replaced by viper.
Edit: official resurrection remix seems to be the better choice in terms of stable updates.

S4 Mini is good if you are happy with a small midrange phone, but be careful you get a version which has official Linage support ie I9195, i9192, I9190 and NOT variants like i9195L (though it's normally possible to get it running on those but support is limited)
Droid 4
Really happy that I can keep my Droid 4 running through several major version of CM and now Lineage OS 14.1. 4" screen and a nifty sliding keyboard (O where have they all gone?).
I only use it a music server now so I can't speak for it's cell capabilities but it's solid performer anyway.

I own a Wileyfox Swift, as I looked for a Dual SIM device with LTE at an affordable price.
It is 5 inches, which I consider too big now, so I wonder if you found a smaller one in the meantime?

is it possible (S8+ ROM to Pixel xl ) ?

just as a curious
is it possible or is there any , who port S8+ rom to pixel xl ?
It's possible to port some apps/features but it's complicated to port the whole rom. I don't even think there are a lot of people that would love to run a Samsung rom on a pixel tbh as the software is one of the main features of the pixel.
I think its easier and with more luck to get an s8 and hope for aosp (us model), exynos model is probably gonna get aosp anyway
Lol I got the pixel to not have a overly themed, slow UI like suckwiz

Ported Firmware from Google Pixel

Hi there!
Can you tell me, if it is possible to make a ported rom with all features from Google Pixel? Afaik, our Xiaomi Mi5s (capricorn) has almost the same hardware inside.
Bump! From what I found- the only real hardware difference between Mi5s and Pixel is the lack of hardware buttons, and the fingerprint scanner (the first one is easily changable and the latter I could live without) so theoritically it should be possible to even just flash the Pixel rom on Xiaomi by just modyfying the device id to allow for the installation. At least that's how me- a noob sees it, if I'm wrong please correct me, and I hope that someone somewhere in the near future ports the Pixel rom to our cheaper alternative
I could just use a custom rom, but I don't want to sacrofice things like camera features and rom stability, not on this phone (my Mi3 served me well for 2 years with every stupid software thing I did to it, but gave up when faced the mother nature)

Android One Port from Mi A1 for Mi 5s

Hi guy's,
I love Stock Android and the current design (API and UI) of pixel smartphones - since Google has really done a lot of work with a lot of style in it.
My Generations: I came from HTC HD2 (Android, Windows Mobile, Windows Phone 7, Ubuntu Touch ect.)... next smartphone was the Galaxy S3 LTE (I flash the official Google Play Edition with a must for change the IMEI ect.), next was the HTC One M8 also converted to a GPE and my before last smarthphone was the Mi 4 LTE (with Windows Phone 10). Always the good alternative to the smartphone interested me. Now it interests me whether someone of you the bother and work dare to build this ROM (http://en.miui.com/thread-825694-1-1.html). The Nexus Experience: http://www.nxrom.us/mi5s.html
This seems to me to be somewhat too imprecise and has not the perfection that Project brings with it. Simply it is not a pureness Pixel/Nexus-feeling (the live wallpaper did not run, the Download Manager is missing, the setting menu is not 100% original etc. It lot is missing here and there) ...
I would like to help, because for me the build up of ROM's when it comes to the interface/UI and a bit around compiling the API, is an easiness for me (-
I would look forward to like-minded and teamwork. The whole thing should simply be a pleasure for the general public and be financed without money, even to learn about it :highfive:
I have a 5s with unlocked bootloader, installed Ressurection Remix 7.1.2 together with Nova Launcher (to enabled gestures) and Pixel camera port.
If you take away the amoled display og the Pixel, the Xiaomi 5s basically is a Pixel spec'ed phone for 1/3 of the price. If you want even more stock android feeling then go for LinageOS?

I really do not understand who would even buy Mi A1 which is in same price range as Mi 5s... Mi 5s have better hardware on first place, than even if you need stock rom, there is always LOS which is official for Mi 5s. I rest my case...
Guy's I mean the Pure Pixel Experience, everyone here who have a Stock Pixel with Oreo or Nougat in his hands? My friend have a Pixel, he work hard to get this phone but I do not agree to spend much money, only to own a Stock Clean Rom although it is cheaper. You can't compare the Nexus Experience Rom (I link in my last post above) and also LOS or any other ROM not with the original Pixel Rom. It must nevertheless be possible to build a Clone for the Mi 5s like the Mi 5 (see here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5/development/rom-pure-nexus-t3578407).
I will ask the developer there, if he with help of me and other users from XDA to build a clean ROM. Still thank you for giving me suggestions, I really appreciate your time!
Have a nice day -cheers
I'm using opengapps to bring pixel launcher, assistant, and whatever google facility on it, but remember that none can clone pixel exactly the same. In case you won't get unlimited original sized photo backup, only real google pixel has it.
If you want pixel like experience you can flash LOS or whatever pure aosp then flash open gapps. You can adjust which to install or remove stock los apps using gapps config, go to opengapps wiki for it.
I mean the System UI and Settings don't look or have the same features egg., example the most AOSP Rom's for Mi 5s don't have Ambient Display Settings or Reading/Night Mode. Also the Google Live Wallpaper are not working and not included in the current GApps. The Rom's missing apps, for example the wallpaperpicker.apk ect.
Okay I must build my own Pixel Experience to get nearly a perfect Copy/Clone of an Pixel /XL. But yes, I will try my best to get a better Experience Rom and share my TWRP Backup here on XDA. Included Magisk and some Kernel Tweaks. The last Time I get a big battery drain with the current Nexus Experience Rom cauz I have enabled the Fingerprint Scan-Fix for Xiaomi Mi 5s (search on XDA for it). I find out that the 4 Cores working eveytime but with the current Miui 9 Rom on Idle, two of the four Cores from SD821 sleeping and the other 2 runs with 300-500 Mhz. That's a nice Kernel Management in Idle State and I tweak it

Android P for Oneplus 5T

Guys i was wondering about android p update for oneplus 5t, since 2 major android updates are usual norm for the companies and from oreo its an option to support project treble if the phone is being updated to oreo and mandatory if the phone ships with oreo, now, according to this post https://www.phonearena.com/news/Goo...s-In-Android-9.0-Make-It-More-Closed_id101816 its being said that android p will mandate the support of project treble that means the phone should support project treble regardless of being updated to android p or shipping with the same.
Now the problem arise when oneplus couldn't support project treble with oreo update for oneplus 5t due to partitioning issues. If this is the scenario then theoretically oneplus 5t won't be able to taste android p officially (since project treble is mandatory) and will it end up being the case of oneplus 2 wherein it couldn't taste android nougat ?
Correct me if i'm wrong since i am on oneplus one and now, looking to upgrade and this time seems fit as oreo's project treble would revolutionize the custom rom's department also i simply couldn't deviate from oneplus phones, hence thinking about waiting for the successor of oneplus 5t as it would definitely ship with oreo hence project treble goodness or oneplus 5t could be updated to android p hence having support for project treble.
Oneplus one still holds good for me till date and no need to upgrade if it wasn't for project treble (and 64 bit architecture also).
So what are your thoughts on this ?
I think you're getting way ahead of yourself. Yes it's true that 1+ is not supporting project treble for the foreseeable future but there are two important things to understand.
First, having an OEM support project Treble does not imply that device will get faster updates. manufacturers will still control the compiling and rollout of updates and they will always add their own tweaks and skins which will take time. All PT will do is taking care of the Hardware Abstraction Layer.
Secondly, even though OnePlus phone updates track record isn't impeccable, they're upgrading the 3/3t and 5/5t to Oreo in a fairly timely matter so it's very unlikely that they will abandon two phones that would be around one year old without the newest update.
In any case, all upcoming phones from OnePlus will have to support Treble so the issue will be short lived.
I think that if they want to ALL phones can be re-partitioned for treble, it would however involve a complete loss of all information on the phone and effort on the part of the companies.
For most users this would be unacceptable as it would involve backing up ALL data , settings and contacts on the phone. It would be time intensive and require effort on the OEM's so these companies just go the easy route and say it can't be done...
Nice way of making a butt-load of cash off the next version of phone released too...
Just one company to get the ball rolling would definitely hurt all others if they did this though...
Oos does not even have oreo... And the open beta they call oreo its nougat..
don't expect it lol
Seriously, we don't even have Oreo yet and you are worried about P?
An official release of Android P for a Oneplus device, is over a year away, minimum... Most of us won't even have this phone by then, having upgraded to a newer one.
oreo itself is a dream.
I was just ensuring that the device i go for will be future proof. I don't feel the need to upgrade a phone until major advancement in the field, i still don't fell the urge to upgrade until it was for project treble which seems promising, alongside backed by 64 bit architecture, display ratio etc etc.
So maybe a safe side would be to wait for the oneplus 5t successor.

I'm in your boat. Despite what OnePlus 5t owners say, treble is a big deal. Manufacturers have already come out and said that it's going to make it much easier. That's why all phones starting with 8.0 will have dual partitions. If you can wait, then you should wait for 8.0+ released devices, or phones that currently implement dual partitions. Essential phones are already prepared for Treble, but they've got some QC issues to solve with their overall hardware, so I'd stay away from them.

yeah yeah yeah man, you perfectly get me, even i'm skeptical about essential phone despite project treble support, even asus zenfone 4's oreo update brings project treble but not in the way treble's to be implemented.
But the thing bugs me that will 1+5/5T be updated to android p or not since android p will surely bring treble support, because treble + 6 years for LTS for kernels = long live device and probably no need to upgrade phones that frequently.
I guess i'll wait for 1+6 then.
thanks for sharing same mindset bro ! :good:
OnePlus 6 will surely be out b4 Android P, shoot probably even the 6T, and the OP6 and beyond will surely support project treble. Patience is the key.
Who cares about project treble and OxygenOS.. we will always have LineageOS. Chill...

project treble means better lineage os support with minimal to no hacks (shimming) to get things working.
Tell me that doesn't sound good.

OP6 is supposed to be released end of March approximately. I would bet dollars to donuts, if they got their act together, it will have Oreo/Treble. Otherwise, they are falling behind the premier makers that will support treble, like the Pixel 2 does now. See what Samsung does with the S9 in the very near future, not sure if it will have treble. If so, it kind of forces OPs hand to have Treble on it's next flagship. Just a thought anyway.
AS far as 5T....well, Oreo is probably good enough for the life of the phone IMO if they get it legit working.

OP6 got to have treble if they launch it with oreo, else google won't certify their software.

Turns out for me, I don't even have the OP5T anymore because it can't do VoLTE on AT&T.

there are rumors about the fact that oneplus will partner with major US carriers for their next flagship, either way OP6 is gonna be a bomb.

Yeah, that would be awesome. I loved my OP3 and enjoyed the OP5T, but I have to have VoLTE. That is a deal breaker, as I routinely have to tether my work laptop to the phone, so if I am on a conf call with the phone, I lose LTE and it drops down to H+ which is like 3G and slow. Also no HD calling, no WiFi calling.
My Essential doesn't have Wifi Calling either, but it does support VoLTE in AT&T, so I had to return the OP5T and go back to that.
