Android P GSI - Honor 7X Questions & Answers

Has anyone tried out the android P development preview GSI yet?

As long i read the p one was a semi / port and Qualcomm based one, dunno if it'l boot on our kirin chip

It's for snapdragon... no guarantee it will even boot or work well on Kirin chipsets.

Genius Idea!!!!!Optimization!!!!Libraries builded by Qualcomm!

Hey guys,swimming in the digital web sea I found that Motorola uses Qualcomm Propretary Tools to build optimized DALVIK and BIONIC libraries,I found this here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/mod-optimized-dalvik-binaries-t2932417,who who made the this post ported them from Motorola Moto X (Device with the same Soc of OnePlus One) because these optimized libraries by Motorola and Qualcomm can be ported between devices with the same Soc (ex:Motorola Moto X-OnePlus One;Motorola Moto G-} Xiaomi Redmi 1S) yeaaah I wrote Xiaomi Redmi 1S(our beloved Xiaomi Redmi 1S) and I found a similar post in the Moto G thread(here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2756227) so there is a possibility of porting.So,I'm asking to all the BIGGEST developers to port these libraries,now the two questions you are thinking about are:
1)What do this libraries do?I don't want to be very technical,so I'll be very focused :They give more PERFORMANCE and BATTERY LIFE,and I can guarantee (with all the other user of these libraries on other devices) that it's true because I'm trying the on my dad's OnePlus One and the affect the device in a so positive way
2)Who will port them?We'll see who will
It's compiled proprietary blobs. They can't be ported. They just working or not working.
Actually there is no reason why it shouldn't work on CM11 based ROMs.
UPD: info from second link is actually quite interesting; maybe our dev's would try to do this (if they not already using it ofc, lol).
not sure about Dalvik as devs are moved to develop lollipop rom, so maybe ART binaries could be help...

Android O, can we have a full taste on it?

​As the dawn of 64-bit processors are on the horizon, how long till our chipset dies?
​I'm amazed on how I can run Android Nougat 7.1.2 despite Qualcomm stopped releasing drivers for the chipset (as far as I know. Correct me if I'm wrong). When Android O comes out, will we ever get a full taste on it?

We can not say right now but as you observed that we came from jb to nougat and we might see android o if our devs stays strong and still uses armani without the device they can't do anything as they have to test many things to do for initial bring up of android o lineage/aosp builds
We now have Nougat check unofficial build by HemantBeast.

Project Treble and Development...

I was about to get Mi A1 when I found out about Honor 7X... I always wanted a budget device with Project Treble and was really disappointed to find Mi A1 (which was My only hope in 2017) doesn't have Treble support even after Oreo update... I read that with Oreo, Honor 7X will have Project Treble support and Im super Excited about it... I have a few doubts... Even though it has been answer, I just want to be sure...
1. Will there be Treble for sure in Oreo (since its a Budget Phone and not a flagship like Mate 9 or 8 Pro)???
2. Is it for sure that it has a separate Vendor Partition which is necessary for Project Treble (There are methods to verify it and has anyone done verification)???
3. Will there be Good Development here as I Love trying something new and flashing new ROMs all the time (Im using Redmi 3S and it has Wonderful Custom ROM development with very active Developers and Im concerned I read complaints that Honor 6X had very less development)???
4. With Project Treble out, will ROMs created for Snapdragon devices with Treble work fine with Kirin powered Honor 7X (Since I have read only about ROMs developed for Kirin devices only working in Treble enabled Honor Devices, sorry if Im wrong as I didn't do intensive research)???

Answers :
1. Yes there will be project treble when oreo is out
2. Yes one of the reason for treble to work is to have the seperate partition and it does thats the reason treble will work
3. No one can tell u this yet, but since Huawei is spreading its honor 7x all around the world more and team openkirin has the device so theres a better chance to have good development soon..
4. Why would there be a mix and match of roms? There are roms already available for our device but we are still skeptical if they would work so we havent tried them yet since it depends on the kirin processor number which matches with almost all the other devices having good development.. So they should work on 7x as well but again, we are not sure so nobody has tried it yet..
Good luck for you to chose your phone!
Treble should come (95% it will), because all Honor devices that got updated to Oreo (Beta or official) have Treble support
Since Huawei makes their own SoCs, porting Treble should be fairly easy. That, combined with the fact that they have ported Treble to even older phones (like the Mate 9), makes me fairly certain that yes, they WILL be porting Treble, and I would be genuinely surprised if they did not. Also, the fact that Treble separates the "low level" code, it shouldn't matter too much whether or not there are not many developers for this specific phone, as a OS developer (Like Lineage OS, Paranoid Android, and the like), can make a single flashable system.img for any Treble device! Thus, if somebody makes a ROM for the Pixel 2, it can run on any other Treble device, and this has even been proven with the Mate 9, running a clean generic AOSP ROM. Personally, I think it would be interesting to see Android GO ported to these midrange devices to see how fast they can be (and running, potentially, other non Android operating systems like Ubuntu, Sailfish OS, and others).

Google Android 12 beta 1 GSI (AOSP)

Hello,
I tried to boot A12 beta 1 AOSP GSI from Google which includes GMS. I am running a A/B device with Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G chipset and 6/128 GB memory. I can boot the GSI perfectly but there is no sound in the system! Also brightness slider is not working...
In phh-treble GSI ROMs, there is options to fix Qualcomm audio, alternate screen brightness scale etc.
How to fix audio and brightness issues in A12 beta 1 GSI ROM?
One of my friends who flashed the GSI is also facing no sound bug. So, probably you'll have to wait till beta 2 for that.
i tried the aosp_arm64-exp-SPB1.210331.013-7333779-3227774b.zip but the device stucks on bootlogo.

Check which props are set in these options (see phhusson's github) and use adb setprop ..... to set them.

It gets to the middle then it says install failed
Searching with Google, i found that it wirks only of some device. That whas build from a10 (my mia3 have pie when i bought it). I think it depends from this. It's appearead because i have installed i custom rom. It' a shame because beta 2 seems better than beta 1... With more functions and bug fixed. But there's already a good port for mia3 with stock android 11... For users who want to try android 12 experience

No or few development for Xiaomi with Mediatek processors.

Project Treble
The Android 8.0 release includes Project Treble, a major re-architect of the Android OS framework designed to make it easier, faster, and less costly for manufacturers to update devices to a new version of Android. Treble is for all new devices launching with Android 8.0 and beyond.

Yep, avoid buying soc MediaTek devices.
Custom rom MIUI better than stocks with for example the call recorder and other features absent on stock roms.
