The chances are currently thin. But we never know if HMD does launch an official bootloader unlock, then we will have some luck. Never say never ?

did anyone try this?

Thank HMD for not being specific, just so they can fool others. The unlock was only made available to the Nokia 8 (2017). It is broken (or not working) since the Pie update for the Nokia 8 too. So, don't keep any hopes on them to support the 8.1.

Mmmm, so there are phones with Android one that cannot be rooted or modded?
What about Kingo root? They normally say they can root almost any phone ^^

No, not for Android 7 or above, if the bootloader is locked.

I had Nokia 7 plus and I was able to unlock the bootloader unofficial way and then flash TWRP and Magisk. Though I had to pay approx $5 for that. Not sure if someone finds a way to unlock the bootloader of Nokia 8.1 as well

Camera does not focus in nothing

Hi, I've been through a problem with my MZP after I flashed retbr stock rom. I'm in the latest security patch level, android 7.1.1, everything is okay, but the camera does not focus in nothing. I'm not able to take photos of the computer because it gets veeeeery blurry, and even if the photo is not about the computer, it doesn't focus, like, I tried to take a photo of a box in front of me, I was like 15cm away and i can't read anything written in the box.
Can someone help me? Where are the official stock roms? Because it seems to be a fake stock rom...
I agree something is wrong with the camera after this latest update my camera also didnt focus iam on reteu version . I have gone to lineage 14.1 and the camera is ok again.
Same here also

Can you do that without risk of bricking now or with the next update?
Could you post a link for Nov patch so people can fix the problem as well?

If you have unlocked BL it`s not a problem for you to flash nov patch.
The better way - flash this with TWRP.
Original thread of this ROM here but only with link to dec patch
P.S. Don`t use OTA with this ROM

I don't want to unlock BL for now (and first time since I have Android). Thx for the info about broken security update, reason to skip this one. Let's see how 8.0 will work. Moto mentioned camera, whatever that means.

You are not wrong about being afraid of unlocking BL, but my advice is to do so, since it sets you free to customize your stock rom, install custom recoveries/roms, debloat(but moto isn't that bloated) and many other very nice things. It's not a difficult thing to do, and is very useful.
If you're afraid, ok, but think about doing it in some months maybe!?
Good lucky dude!

I'm not afraid, lol. I did that many times (even using exploit on Verizon Moto). Just not finding good reason to do so. Against unlocking bl is that my bank app will stop to work, then I have to use magisk... Quite a headache when stock works just fine. I'm even thinking to not accept any further update, including 8.0.

I don't think unlocking is a problem for bank apps since we've got magisk hahaha, it's a very good root app, why not?
I told, no good reason to do it. Another one, I don't really have time to play with Android as I used to.
I have to fix gapps on damn Fire tablet and postponing that as well.

I have found that this varries by camera app - some are better at it than others. True for any 8.x at this point.
Just to let you know, camera focuses fine on 8.0. Even faster than before!

On Intel page I've found command line:
Code:
addison:/ $ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep arc
CPU architecture: 7
CPU architecture: 7
CPU architecture: 7
CPU architecture: 7
CPU architecture: 7

[ro.product.cpu.abilist32]: [armeabi-v7a,armeabi]
[ro.product.cpu.abilist64]: []
...
Missing value in the last line probably means no 64bit support.
Just googling how to check that and so far only way is to install Antutu and I don't want to do that during the testing period.
If you find another way, let me know.

Yep, armeabi-v7a means that it's not 64 bit. No surprise though, updating android from 32 to 64 could bring a lot of problems with app compatibility.

why honor 8 pro development stoped..

Guys, did any one knows what are the reasons behind no custom rom development for our devices.
It has very good hardware and a lot of developments can be done.
There are openkirin roms though!!! I did use the RROS gsi... It wasn't all that bad!!
Ghoos khilaya hoga sale chutiyo ne developers ko.
I don't think even Honor Play will be getting root now, because Huawei will not be providing bootloader unlock codes for new devices:https://www.xda-developers.com/huawei-stop-providing-bootloader-unlock-codes/

Do you know if there is any possible way of unlocking the bootloader of a honor 8 pro right now (its on the newest firmware too :/)
Or rooting without unlocking the bootloader? I don't think thats possible though, is it?

Android Pie for Axon 9 Pro

Since there is no official Axon 9 Pro forum (why?), please allow me to post here.
I just got a notification that there is an update to "ZTE_A2019G_ProV2.1.0B01" available, description starts with "Upgrade Android release from O to P." Sounds promising. Anybody got this too and tried it out? Did it work alright?
BTW, still looking for a way to root the Axon 9 Pro, $30 bounty: https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/twrp-zte-axon-9-pro-a2019g-pro-t3889760

How likely will it have official custom/AOSP ROMs?

This phone is eating Redmi/xiaomi cc for lunch. It looks like a real great value, beating xiaomi/redmi at its game.
For me, if only it has clean Android...
While xiaomi's popular models have been pretty good at releasing kernels and getting ASOP roms, how likely will realme phones get clean custom roms? Thanks.
Well certainly not Out Of The box, as we are still not sure of UBL and kernel sources, but seeing the track record of REALME, they will surely be out in a Month.
And as seen on R3p, atleast we will get an unofficial LOS. Also I know one developer who will be getting Realme X , sometime soon , so ???

Question Root black shark 4 pro global or unlock the bootloader?

I would like to root it with magisk boot img patch method but in order to do that I have to unlock the bootloader but I can't do that because the phone does not have an unlock status in developer mode which is needed to unlock the bootloader.
If there's someone here who has managed to root the phone or even just unlocked the bootloader, I would appreciate it if you could guide us to how its done.
Nevermind. I got mine done
How?

How to unlock bootloader?

Will there ever be custom Rom Support for this phone because it seems almost like a waste to have a top notch chipset and only get 2,3 or 4 years of software support i mean check the specs its really decent to carry with you for years to come.
i found someone who can help anyone who wants to unlock their phone, root it and install a global rom that accepts ota updates. Pm me or hit me up on telegram https://t.me/TheBabyShaker420
