Port S8+ O Beta to note 8? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

i'm sure it's possible since
it's basically the same device lol

I tried already. But for now even Oreo rom for S8 doesn't want to boot.
Samsung focused on security instead of new features or new UI this year. Security against their own customers!
Other than 1000s of security changes, we need these:
Oreo bootloader
Oreo kernel
Oreo modem
Oreo HIDL libs probably.
It's not so easy anymore.

How long before we see a Marshmallow ROM for s6 edge?

How long will it be before somebody create's an Android M ROM for Samsung S6 Edge?
Train yourself to be patient, only then you get the power
it will probably be cm based or something like that with marshmallow cherry picks ha
Official update by Samsung, I assume by November 2015.

the Chance of a CM based ROM is zero

OnePlus FP driver

Back a few months ago, OnePlus promised to release the FP driver to the community to help out developers, what is happening ?
They are making the sensor work with the marschmallow API. So it will be supported in custom roms. They will never release the sources.

Too bad, because the FP sensor is also not made by OnePlus. So they just can't release any sources. The only hope we have is that someone back-engineers it...

So NO other phone used the same FP sensor that we might be capable of using the same driver?
I have serious doubts about this whole situation tbh

Presently only our phone has 1150 sensor.. (I've read this somewhere)

the whole FP thing was the reason I stayed on oxygenOS for a good while, which I regret, once I switched to custom rom I was so much happier even without the FP. Now that was finally got android 6 roms hopefully we get FP soon.
In marshmallow it will work a lot better, in h2os beta works awesome, its toooooo fast!

Fingers crossed. Left Samsung S5 for this phone, even though oneplus spec is a ton better.

That's because Google is kind of banned in China? and they don't want to use their API? Nah.. I don't think so. is it? okay I'm stupid.

Unlikely but wishful hoping you're reasoning is true. We all want OnePlus to use the standard API so that the device can be maintained easily by custom rom developers and groups.
This will expand the lifespan of the device and make people support and keep buying OnePlus devices.
You hear this ONEPLUS?

So, does anyone think development for this phone is dead or will be see a surge in dev support when source/MM oxygen is build is released?
I bought this phone and feeling kinda ripped of on the dev side of things.

I HIGHLY doubt it will come with Android 7.0. 7.0 official hasn't been released yet and they are manufacturing millions of these for release. That means they are being boxed and being stored in the Warehouse in preparation to be shipped out. 7.0 would have to be out and available to the manufacturers prior to this happening for these to come with 7.0 out of the box.
I am sure these will be Marshmallow just like the leaked version and 7.0 will come around fall. Look how long it took to get Marshmallow on the Note 5 after Marshmallow was released!

Ah. Good point. Well, I never said it was official. Just from what I've heard. But yea good point.
Stock ROM is Grace UX. The consumer rom was already leaked.

It is still a Marshmallow base though right? Multiple roms for the Note 5 have had the Grace UX or at least parts of it.
The Grace UX was what I meant when I said just like the leaked version.

I think the stock rom will be basically be the latest (pfb?) Tw ux firmware...with a few added features to take advantage of for the new device...

Android nougat update?

Is it a lot to expect an Android nougat update soon. With no kernel source available I suppose it has to be an official update or is it time to buy a new phone (not a hisilicon device for sure)?

Are you retarded?
It's only just being released today ffs

MM was released by Mar so hope N will also be out by same for this as it was Honor brand Flashship last year
Huawei just released their two years software update guarantee with a lot of show, soooo I actually do expect Nougat in Feb - March 2017, yes.

Kernel source codes are available of Marshmallow, so now we can't blame Huawei to not releasing the sources. Nougat is still far away, as they have now a new flagship killer to attend to

He meant to say that the Nougat just released and you are asking for it way sooner than it should be available. ?

who should know that? Ask a crystal ball if you can find some. Or even better, ask HUAWEI
Taking in consideration the support for Honor 6 and some random online reports for Honor 7, I would say yes.
i believe we will get N , not sooner but later

As I can remember Huawei announced devices that will receive marshmallow update somewhere around October last year.Sony for example have already announced their nougat update plans.
Sent from my PLK-L01 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I prefer a stable marshmallow. Nougat is in the second plan to me. Even they are planning to release, they shouldn't announce it at this time. Because of sales policy..

But its still far away, as of now Nexus are also getting beta updates, so I don't think Huawei will release it anytime soon. Maybe if they can release a beta too.

The rumour is that the Qualcomm chips won't work, as Qualcomm refuse to compile Vulkan for the firmware - as the Kirin chipset is made by a subsidiary of Huawei, there's a better chance of that happening, imho.

What? Vulkan refuse to compiling? or getting a Nougat?
