hi every one ,
VibeUi , is one of the most amazing and fast Ui you might see , its smooth , colourful and eyecandy it can make us all reThink again about our p8000 , Elephone gave us
a little taste of it last September but it didn't continue its work in fixing some major issues , like the Bluetooth and sim activation , but now we have a better chance to make it work even better ,
The Lenovo K4 Note is the closest smartphone to our Elephone p8000
It has the same processor Mtk6753 , same dimensions and the fingerprint and other specs , so developer wont have hard time porting VibeUi to p8000
here is the stock rom for the K4 note
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/stock-rom-lenovo-k4-note-t3312345
here is also the opensource code files for the K4 Note
http://support.lenovo.com/us/en/downloads/ds105347
so , is there anyone intrested to make our dream come true???
sure some of the developers of the P8000 will be interested and we can help . Thank you very much for the contribution. I hope soon enjoy this great rom .
I will try to port this. Expect results in 12 hours.
I think P8000 already has vibe...

you could also try to port the rom. everyone started somewhere. and we (the devs) already don't have much time. we do it only in our freetime. and i personally will sell the phone very soon, so also no time to try the port. sorry
PS. maybe i will make a tutorial how to port roms on the 64bit MTK chips. but i don't promise this, everything depends on time

Hi, I am planning on getting the Honor 8 pro by the end of this week.i came up with a few doubts. I am switching from Moto G4 plus to Honor 8 pro and the EMUI thing has got me concerned.
1. Is it by any chance as good as the near stock android like feel of Moto G4 plus?
2. Is there a way of getting stock android in it without bricking my phone?
3. I just received the June 2017 security patch for Moto G4+ and it got me wondering, how will I receive these updates if I somehow manage to get stock android on Honor 8 pro?
4. I can even work with near stock like ROMs , like oxygen OS or CynogenMods or anything similar, but then, how long will be my wait before I get my hands on Android O after it is released. Is the Honor developer community very active? Or should I stay with EMUI expecting office releases?
5. I am not planning to get another phone for next couple of years and I am tight on budget. Am I doing the right thing by going for his phone instead of say 1+5 or LG G6 ? Or should I wait a few more weeks/months to get another "flagship killer" to be launched?
I am not very familiar with rooting and stuff so if anyone could guide me towards some resources to read about these, it will be great. Preferably Honor phones related rooting.
Thankyou in advance

2.updates are pretty fast now by huawei
3 .you will get the latest security patch.l
4.kernal is released we can expect good ROM development
5.RRos is so cool in this device ,AOSPA also.. best ROMs
6. if you are a flasholic better to go for OP5 .the development is soo fast there .
Your post seems like you want stock Android, if that's the case then you should go with OP5.

I would love to have OP5 but I am really really tight on budget, even 30K is stretching me too far from my budget. I just want to make sure that it's worth it. I am not a flasholic, I flash once in like 6 months, just to test out some other ROMS, just want to ensure that I won't have to dig the depths of the internet to get a compatible ROM.

I rather enjoy having more functions then stock android. This is not Samsung or LG amount of bloatware or wierd functions, but rather small improvements. Still fast and lagg free and I have no doubt it still will be in a couple of years.
The screen, looks & build quality and battery life are stuff that really impress and makes this a "flagship phone /killer". Also quite future proof specs.

Just for everyone to know, I finally bought Honor 8 Pro, and so far I am very happy that I did. Thank you all for the replies.
I even dropped the phone once from a height of around 4 feets (Unintentionally ofcourse) and apart from having a little paint removed from the top, everything is fine. Guess the build quality is good enough.
I remember reading about having a software upgrade soon on 25-26th of this month. Anyone has any update on that ?

Yes, this is great, not bad at all. I am just worried about the updates now, that's all. Other than that, EMUI is pretty sleek.

Even i am skeptical of installing it. I am using a Huawei device for he first time and thus don't know how to revive it if something goes wrong.
I made a seperate thread regarding updates. I will try to find some more info about how to install it.

any reason for preferring stock Android? what do you expect from "stock" experience? smoothness? or an Android without any extra features? and why?
EMUI has got it's own pros & cons.. there are some really good things that Huawei has implemented into the OS. there are also some quirks that they've never gotten to fixing..
in terms of security patches.. Huawei and honor, sadly, can be a bit slow. maybe like once every 3-6 months once.
but personally, I'm not too worried coz in the end, if you practise safe use, not an issue. before I got my honor8Pro, I was using Note 2.. and well, what security patch? haha..
wait a little

Moto g5s and s+ are one the way ... so might as well wait for them, and few other noteworthy devices are getting released, there's been meizu with dual screen.... I use honor8 pro... it has all the premium features on surface.... but not mind blowing, good cam, better screen , thin profile, premium finish and attention to detail are few highlights, but expected a lot more from emui, no native equalizer though dts certified, knuckle knock for screenshots works at its own will, not many customized options in features, only reason I'd go for non stock Android phones ks their skin embedded features whereas on stock Android you'd need an app..
Another noteworthy omission is no photobackup on huwei cloud, and system state backup seems to be non existent as well...
Few more points to consider is how Future proof is your phone, because you'd expect some resale value right.. from 30000 the fall of price might be steeper, so consider it all and jump the boat, meanwhile if you do buy honor 8 pro do get back with your opinion about the device and any good things you've discovered about it... it'd be nice to compare

Hi, I just wondering how to flash GT2 PRO firmware to my GT2. Hardware should be the same... Any ideas?
I also would like the skiing activity
Any new in this topic? There are few future for GT2 Pro but no for GT 2 ....

I'm very interested as well, it should indeed be possible since hardware seems the same.

Exactly!!!
We need some clever guy to find out how to jam the PRO firmware into it...
Until you have two pins in watch, not four, and you cant use USB connection to PC, and BT is locked to huawei health... Forget about that... Even if somebody will read firmware from watch memory, there will be no app tool ever to upload it into other watch...
May be posibble, but with standard tools, not via forum/internet... And with need to disassemple watch to get access to motherboard.
It looks like "the easiest" solution is extracting the firmware from health app and forcing the app to upload modified firmware... I am not definitely able to do that :-(
NFC upload? Maybe
I think that some effort definitely needs to be put on that watch... It has good hardware so why not have good software as well? Huawei adds one tiny feature every 2 months only to ensure new units will still be sold. I think when Huawei stops updating the watch we will all be on our own. I am definitely looking forward to seeing one with the skill required make a custom FW for it...
this would be great... you know, we can add .hwt faces via modded Huawei health app. So, there must be a way to cheat the updates of pro version. We just need effort of smart coder
Anything is possible!!!
https://www.talkandroid.com/366671-huawei-watch-gt-2-harmonyos-2-0/
Maybe Huawei will help us with GT2 PRO firmware... I am curious about the big update to HarmonyOS...
Wow that's still very nice news! At least we will have a working app store... for the first time!
However what if Huawei decides to ditch support shortly after that? Let's say after it manages to make a stable version?
The hardware of the gt 2 vs pro are the same? so should be possible to load pro firmware onto the gt 2?

This would be epic! but i don't have my hopes up. GT2's lack of RAM is not a good catalyst.

Actually they have the same SoC. I know nothing about RAM but it should be identical as well... We should have the ability to load our own firmware on the watch regardless...

I guess that is not the issue.
The issue is that Huawei Watch3 Pro has 2Gb of RAM and runs Harmony OS, while GT2/GT2 Pro has 32Mb RAM and runs Lite OS....
I guess what everyone is questioning, including me, is that if Harmony OS can run on 32Mb, why would they launch the Watch3 with 2Gb?

WOW! What a piece of information right here! My guess is that if they were to upgrade the GT2/GT2 Pro to Harmony OS AT ALL (cause it might just be advertising to sell the remaining units), it would be a very very stripped down version and/or sluggish. My opinion.
Now the only thing that could rescue us is again custom development. A port of Harmony OS with an increased page file would be a great place to start from...
if can, honor magic 2 owner would be happy ..... our firmware not update after honor split with huawei.
sad for us.

It is if someone ports the S21's firmware to an S20's ROM.
Starting with Galaxy S1, i flashed many Roms, I did not see any benefit. There will be no difference between OneIU 5 or 6 or 4.

Im sorry, youre 10 and you have an S20 ultra? At 10 i had an 80 euro phone and i wasnt complaining about features. They probably will release a port , so just be patient until one ui 6 even comes out and then wait a little more for someone to port it. It doesnt take a snap to port a rom. I waited 5 months for one ui 5 on my alt S10e. btw you sound similar to 10 yr old me , i was doing the same things to my moms old laptop haha

If nobody ports it, make sure to do it yourself because I also have an S20 Plus. If it doesn't work, maybe someone can build an AOSP-based ROM for S20+. The sources and builds are available publicly. Any developer with the device should be able to do so. One UI has become boring
