I have a Moto G5 Cedric and I plan to install a GSI ROM, but everywhere I have heard that I need my phone to have Project Treble compatibility, I have installed a lot of apps that tell you if your phone is compatible or not and they all say not compatible, but... is it true that it is not compatible?

Although there is no official support for Treble, it is unofficially available for Moto G5 Cedric here => https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5/development/treble-project-treble-cedric-t3820451/
It is a bit outdated, not having been updated in quite a while but you can download it from here => https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=287275

Android 10 GSI ROMs have broken RIL (Calls, mobile data, SMS, MMS, VoLTE, everything like you had no SIM card except that not even emergency calling works), Hotspot for example is often broken, etc. My advise: DO NOT USE.

Till now everyone heard and know that Motorola is building 64 bit ROM for our (Moto G5plus) Potter device as Oreo doesn't support 32-bit anymore.
What's the possibility of Implementation of treble and seemless Update with this ROM as They ate building Completely out of scratch.
I Know Lenovo Policy and Stuffs so Put only sensible reply I on basis of valid documents or proof rather saying randomly no offense

No, moto isn't building 64-bit Oreo for our device. A 32-bit OS cannot be upgraded to 64-bit without a clean install (read: deleting all data), which is also true for every desktop OS (Windows, any linux distro, etc.) . It is actually sort of possible on linux, but extremely difficult and bothersome.
Also Oreo didn't drop support for 32-bit architectures. New apps must be 64-bit compatible, but that doesn't mean they'll stop working on a 32-bit OS. And Google covered 32-bit cases in their Oreo compatibility definition, meaning it is supported.
Basically it's never been done before by an oem, and there is no reason for moto to bother with it since G5+ has a maximum of 4GB RAM. 64-bit architectures even tend to increase RAM consumption due bigger pointers and slightly larger code.
As for treble, it's possible to update phones with treble support, as it has been done by other oems before, but I really doubt moto will bother. They said every phone will get at least one major update (with "at least" usually meaning "exactly"), so after Oreo the G5+ likely won't get android P, meaning they achieve nothing by making the phone treble compatible.
Dear developers of our G5 Plus @vache , @GtrCraft , @jhenrique09 , @mrlolli , @shamith ,
About PROJECT TREBLE I saw that the motorola will not support our device (OTA update with repartition would be risky).
But I saw that somebody already managed to carry the project treble to the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4. He had no support.
Interesting article on how he managed:
https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-note-4-project-treble/
And there is another developer who is doing this for the Xiaomi Redmi 3 ( Screenshots )
Do you think it is possible to do the same for our G5 Plus since our hardware and spaces are better?
Maybe we could use the OEM or Firmware partition (if we can give it away)
in this video he shows how he did for redmi 4:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXd0D3g6r_0
---------- Post added at 03:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------
He said he did not repartition, he just altered an existing one:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75527103&postcount=2233
Here is the Moto G6 Plus Stock rom with treble (*** do not install! ***), I think we could study the structure of the partitions because from one moto G to another it changes little, maybe this gives an idea of which partition to use.

I did it, but before installing the GSI Pixel experience you have to do the factory reset on twrp.
the steps are as follows:
Before everything download Device ID apk (https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/evozi...release/device-id-1-3-2-android-apk-download/)
And a Brower (https://apkpure.com/via-browser-fast-light-geek-best-choice/mark.via.gp)
- TWRP-treble ( although twrp continues to show 3.2.1.0 note that in mount and backup the vendor partition is now appearing )
[If comming from broken treble/bug or anything wrong]
--> Wipe everything except internal.
- Lineage_treble ( This version of the lineage made by vache contains the necessary vendor partition files. )
- Factory reset (Don't if you gonna use LOS)
- GSI (Don't if your gonna use LOS)
- Gapps (Don't if you gonna use Pixel Experience) & Magisk mod by vache)
For GAPPS use OpenGapps Pico.
For Magisk only use the one on vache's cloud.
On LOS you shouldn't get google certification error,
If you get (on los or any gsi)
Just skip the setup wizard (do like if you don't use gapps)
Install DeviceID, and get your GSF number, then enter it on
this site, reboot and you're ready to go.

Does any (A-only) GSI (like phh-treble builds) work with the custom TWRP, or do they have to be specifically compiled for the g5+? I'm asking because I'm interested in the potential for this, but not really wanting to switch from a non-treble ROM just yet.
And here it is

The point of a gsi (generic system image) is that it'll work on any treble-enabled device. Any A-only GSI will work, because the device specific drivers are in a partition which is left untouched.

I flashed PE GSI in my g5 plus. It was working fine. But some days later device uncertified notification was coming, one after another in almost 5 Google app. I registered my device online in Google's website and rebooted but nothing fixed. Now I am using non treble PE.
Hello!
So I decided to make this GSI because I had never built one and for fun.
And since it works, why not share it with everyone :laugh:
Instructions to flash:
https://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/
What doesn't work:
Probably the same as phhusson's AOSP GSI
(If you run into problems, tell me below and include your device name. Bugs without logs will be considered a feature)
What works:
Also probably the same as phhusson's AOSP GSI
Tested on:
Redmi 5 Plus with CrDroid vendor

Do I need to flash gapps?
Yes.
Does VoLTE work?
It's reported to work apparently but I have no way to confirm this
Big thanks to @EnesSastim for getting me started with GSIs
And to @phhusson for his scripts

There is a possibility that I'll make a gsi for a/b devices, but I'm focusing on other things first.

I do not have much condition to buy the Google Pixel cell phone I decide to install rom 9.0 and the first one I researched in the browser I found "LineageOS" 9.0 for the device "Moto G 2nd Titan". The question is the following I would like to know if you are going to someday update this rom for LineageOS v16.0 that I found more fluid in other devices that are compatible with it, and for my device, and that sometimes the system stops responding , That's it.

So after testing AOSP extended, LineageOS17, Havoc OS and even DerpFest OS, I think moto z2 (albus) doesn't do great with GSI for android 10. There always was something off and the stability was far from one you expect from a gsi. I used KVT 2.3 aroma to boot. However, there are other devs releasing unofficial GSI roms as well which I haven't tested. Like ExPressLukeGSI or Trisquel collection which probably has a special thing for albus. So I am posting this expecting replies from anyone showing love to z2 play, If you know something then tell me. If you want to test the GSIs and can't find links, ask me.

What kind of problems did you have? I'm testing phusson's plain AOSP and so far works good. Scrolling and some apps, especially Google maps run smoother than on stock Pie. I'm using modded Google Camera 6 (shared in Apps&Mods forum), it works good, just HDR+ can't be turned off and it tends to improve reality too much. I just didn't manage to install Magisk yet.
I also wanted to try Trisquels's gsi-albus stuff, but SourceForge has been working badly recently and I wasn't able to download anything

I don't know and I already left. But before, my battery usually lasted for one day, now maybe half maybe a bit more.
I tried DescendantX, but it seemed a bit undone with something in status bar. But maybe I try it once more.
I also tried GSIs from gsi-albus project on SourceForge and they seem good, but they have always navigation bar on and fingerprint gestures off (doesn't matter what you select in kvt installer). So I wander whether they are really built with Albums in mind...
Can someone here help me decide whether to take the plunge or not into flashing a custom ROM on my daily driver Z2 Play, by clarifying some of my doubts.
1) Whether the Moto experiences like Moto Actions and Moto Display will be available when using custom ROMs and GSIs?
2) Will it be possible to return to stock ROM after flashing a 64bit Treble based ROM?
3) Also what is the best, most stable Android 9 or 10 based ROMs for Moto Z2 Play?

2) Will it be possible to return to stock ROM after flashing a 64bit Treble based ROM?
3) Also what is the best, most stable Android 9 or 10 based ROMs for Moto Z2 Play?

There are no stable Pie or Q ROMs for Z2 Play unfortunately. Only GSI ones that are all more or less bugged and it seems like no developer is interested in this phone anymore. For stable ROMs you can choose only from 8.1 ones which are all quite outdated at this point as well. Anyway I use unofficial LineageOS 15.1 as daily driver for like 1,5 year now and have no complaints, it's absolutely rock solid and latest release has February 2020 security patches. Moto actions, Moto display (kinda, it's different than stock) and fingerprint gestures works.
But honestly I don't think there is much point in flashing custom rom now, especially if you have stock 9.0.
Pixel experience plus on Albus
I have flashed the Pixel Experience Plus Android 10 GSI on Albus by using the latest KVT 2.4 and it works like charm.
There are no major bugs, everything is working fine like basic functions and performance is awesome.
Only ambient display is not working, other than that almost everything is working fine and this GSI can be used as daily driver.
And magisk is also working.
Did anyone tried to install Erfan's Oxygen OS GSI on Albus???

Good to hear that pixel experience is working for you. I am based in india and none of gsi seem to provide volte functionality. Can you confirm that the rom you have tried is working with volte? Please provide the source of the pixel experience gsi you have tried. i have tried Erfans gsi, its same volte doesn't work. Thanks
