Robin cloud and support ending - Nextbit Robin

Since Robin is abandoned, should i move on?
I use the robin as a secundary device, but since there are no more updates and no oreo update, should i get a new phone?
I love the robin but to me it seems without any future

If you are willing to do it, switch to a custom ROM. Development seems to be continuing so that's about the only "future" we'll see.

Do you think there's going to be a Oreo custom rom?

Maybe. I'm not a developer, but from my understanding Nextbit didn't release good source code for Nougat, making the path to Oreo even more difficult. There are some who are working on it, but nothing fully functional yet. A teaser here and there, but more of I got it to boot and get into settings, not a "hey anyone willing to test this" yet.

If you can get this out, trying to convert my wife to android from iOS. Would be willing to test, especially since multiRom is in the works.
Assuming you have dropped interest in porting one over. I have never ported a rom or done anything dev wise but may give it a go over the next 2 or 3 days and see if I can get a stable MIUI port.
marshmallow miui on Nexus 5x would be awesome
been waiting for this rom since the N5x was announced

I will try to port but at the moment I wish to use patchrom and there is no mm code for it. Will try porting the MI4 as it uses the same SoC and same amount of ram.

Have never ported a ROM so just trying to figure out everything is daunting for me lol. I don't have a lot of spare time.
Update: will have to wait for a 6.0 update on miui.

yeah, i've been looking in to this...
can you use a rom like this?
http://en.miui.com/thread-178779-1-1.html
i've never built my own rom, but the process looks like you take an existing rom and mix it with a stock 5x image?

You can but want to take it from a device similar like one with a snapdragon 808 like the MI4c. Once I see that get updated to 6.0 globally I will gibe it a shot.

Not even close. PC went out on me and, to help cover some bills, I had to fall back on my S6 and sell my 5x =( If you are like me and have 0 experience HERE is a really good guide! Sorry I can't be of further help.
Update: Patchrom is still not updated to MM so even without the device or my main PC I couldn't build it anyway and the only way to build it is with MI4c roms. They haven't even released the 5.1 patchrom
Is there anyone else interested in giving a try about this happening?
Of course I am interested in whole MIUI thing.

Nexus 6p has a Miui project. Is it possible to talk to these guys and get the info on how to do it for the n5x? Im not an Android dev otherwise I would?

I am not a dev either but I am interesting in the whole Miui project.
Someone that can help?
am in guys just tell me what to do
Do you have grips with the patchrom?
I have the patchrom source downloaded and the recommended system base(latest marshmallow build for 5x) basing on what i read on this guide but i have problems while creating a dump of the rom if anyone wants to help ping me
https://github.com/MiCode/patchrom
Check it here
../tools/releasetools/ota_target_from_phone -r (this will generate a stockrom.zip, flash this zip in recovery mode to ensure it works)

yeah but flashing the stock rom to then go back to what i'm currently running ir's quite boring maybe i can just extract files from the factory image?
Well I guess that's the gamble you have to take. And always have a Nandroid backup

I mind such the RR, Krexus, Mokee with Nougat
Chill bruh, Nougat hasn't even been out for more than a few months. It takes time for the respective ROM devs to develop these ROMs; most of them haven't even started work on Nougat versions. Most devices like ours are still trying to get Nougat to properly run in the first place, so the alpha CM14 builds are all we got so far.
Also, I feel the OP sounds like an ETA, but I'll keep quiet.

TWRP, etc

How long will it take to get TWRP, custom ROMs, etc?
I don't think anyone knows right now. I know our phones have different partitions than others so it may take some time for it to be stable for us to use. I did see jcase post something on twitter about TWRP on a Pixel.
I saw a post in the dev thread (the only kernel thread right now) that they are working on twrp. The biggest challenge sounds like figuring out the file based encryption used on the pixel device.
I hope they hurry!
The saying "you never know what you've got until it's gone" is very true. :crying:

No disrespect was intended. My post is a lighthearted comment on life without a rooted device.
My guess is that they're trying to figure out how to best accommodate and exploit the dual partition goodness.
I'm patient. I was just curious.

Does anyone know where we can monitor the progress of TWRP?
AFAIK, the Dev isn't huge on posting Twitter/G+ updates but I could be wrong.
I'm not asking for a progress update (I may be lying).
TWRP and Xposed for 7.1 are the next huge things we're waiting on.
And then we all wait for our favorite ROM to get developed.
Dirty Unicorns or Broken OS for me please. :good:
Sounds like Ethan is making progress on TWRP but still has a ways to go.

Interested in porting CM 13

Hello fellow XDA members, I recently purchased a Le Pro 3 and a Le S3 during the flash sale and would like to use Cyanogenmod on my devices. I was wondering if anyone on this forum has ever ported a ROM before as I have not, and only know about the CM porting guide and opensource.le.com for the kernel source. If anyone has any tips or would like to assist me in porting CM13 to the Pro 3 please reply to this thread or PM me. Thanks, and let's hope LeEco releases the source soon!
Love to help but this isn't my department ????. But we should probably see more support in a couple more days once they start arriving here
Just out of curiousity, what exactly had you hoped to achieve with this post? If you're interested in porting, ideally you should at least be able to build a rom (for another pre-existing device)... and then you'll have to hunt down help on the CM forums and then eventually IRC.
Talking about this on XDA is pointless.

The purpose of my post was to see if anyone in the XDA community had experience porting a ROM to a new device, and if they'd be interested in helping me. I have read through a few guides and understanding building a ROM, but am struggling to find what I must "merge." From what I've found so far, I'll need to edit/merge the directories in /system/libs and edit the kernel?

No, it's far more complicated than that. You'll need a copy of the kernel for sure, but you'll also need a device definition. You can use the op3's device as a template, it's probably the best example of an msm8996 device you can have.
You really should be checking into the CM forums. CM people are pretty uppity about not supporting things on XDA. They also don't tend to help. Even as a developer I find it difficult sometimes to get their attention. Your best bet is to go to them if you want their help. Good luck.

Yeah, I understand. I also found out that it will be about a month until LeEco officially releases all of the source.

Where did you get that information from? They "accidentally" released kernel sources not too long ago and seemingly withdrew it. I got a copy of them and that's what I've been working with. I don't have a device to verify if any of it works.

I asked on this forum. Also my S3 is coming tonight, and my Pro tomorrow. I have a copy of the Pro 3 kernel source as well but as of now don't know what to do. What have you worked on so far?

Not a lot. I've identified the CAF tag the sources are based on and have been working to separate the relevant LeEco mods from the less relevant ones. I've also been attempting to remove the leeco specific things from the drivers that i'm keeping since they're a horrible mess and CM won't be able to make use of them anyway. I've also been finding the appropriate open versions of the drivers and taking the latest ones instead.
The mods from LeEco seem to be a mess, the dmesg output I got from a user on the chinese model (the x720) had segfaults from the modifications just after boot. The logcats are so full of errors I was unable to get the user to send me a full logcat from boot.
Interestingly enough, the chinese system rom looks like it came from a Le Max2. This makes sense since it's LeEco's first msm8996 device, and the Le Pro3 is the second one. I imagine the kernel sources work across a number of the 8996's.
Can you send me the link to where you got the open drivers.

Wish i could help more, but it looks like the kernel source is in there too, perhaps that means a fully functional cm13 rom that works AT LEAST as well as the stock rom. VERY EXCITE!

Any AOSP-based Treble ROMs in the pipeline?

It looks like the MultiROM is the only Treble ROM available at the moment. Does anyone know if there are any AOSP-based Treble ROMs in the pipeline?
Global version has just started to arrive to buyers. Once developers get their hands on it, this forum and development will blow up.

Yep, mine was dispatched from Aliexpress on 27 April & impatiently waiting for it!
If AOSP is not an express requirement, try RR, it supports Treble on partition A, but not B. There are 1-2 bugs. but those too are being ironed out, it is a daily driver material! And don't know if I understood it correctly, but MultiROM is not a ROM... XD
Thanks everyone, I think I'll just keep MIUI until the devs come up with the goods. At least I can hopefully unlock the bootloader and root it while I'm waiting.

You can always use the debloater while you wait. Does a good job removing all the MIUI junk without needing root/unlocked bootloader.
