Honor 7X Kernel Source Released - Honor 7X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel

This should be a big help for developers:
https://www.xda-developers.com/kernel-sources-released-huawei-mate-10-honor-7x/

Cool, a 4.1.18 kernel. Anyone tried compiling yet?

Expecting more ROMs for Honor 7x!

I don't own the device so I can't debug anything on my own, but if a few people would be willing to PM me then I'd be happy to make a kernel for it. I just need people to get back to me with logs so I can ensure everything works as it should. I don't think I'll ever actually pick it up due to its cost but I can help the community here to a degree.
No promises of anything but it's a start. I won't be able to do much until this weekend though. Finals are around the corner.

People have ordered the phone today i guess since it was the first day of sale..
Phones will be reaching out after a week almost so i think thereafter we ll be getting people to start playing around with their devices..
Thanks for the headsup! I am rooting for treble to build up an oreo rom fully functional soon..
I ordered mine since i burnt my oP1 2 days back and i hope the community response in honor series is also as good as it was there..

That's fantastic

That's really great..I would love to contribute in development..

A year for honor 6x but not a single stable rom(o sorry- not even a beta) is biggest deal breaker that huawei should consider before impressing xda public

The bad thing is that Honor can't force HiSilicon (makers of kirin SoCs) to release documentations of SoCs like Qualcomm do

I have the Indian version of the phone so if some developers can create kernels for testing i would test them..
need more developers for Honor 7X.. hopefully project treble would be of help

Is the Honor 7x an HI6250 Device because if it is, it's entirely possible that my ROMs, which work for EVERY OTHER Hi6250 device (Afaik )might work for the 7x as well.

Nope, honor 7x is kirin 659
I think hi 6250 are p9 lite and others like 655 kirin etc which are older ones..

Nothing is found in the path of Honor 5X to Nougat. Still, some ppl do think that it won't be successful. So don't expect it. It might or may not.

chances are high,
because honor promised it,
our chipset supports nougat
and our device is being shotlisted
plus its the second popular and second most selling device among honors right now..
everyone knows these things, including honor,
and if honor, knowingly do such mistakes as not providing updates, they know their market values will be decreased..
so i think chances are high..

Chances are high. But the device should support it right ?
Hardware capabilities should should also cooperate to get the new updates.
I'm not saying that Honor 5X won't get any updates. Still I don't have much confidence for Nougat

What exactly you say by lacking hardware capabilities? I guess Qualcomm snapdragon 616 supports Nougat.

There are other technical things too contributing to it. We can't disclose it either. If it gets successful, then Honor 5X will taste EMUI 5. As of now it's not going fine. But there is a little hope still left. That's what I can say.

I think he is requesting an EMUI 5 port for our Honor 7 which is really unlikely to happen in my opinion.
I agree. This won't happen, because nobody is willing to port EMUI ??
We will get nougat custom romim pretty sure
eddydc1, no custom ROM is going to be fully featured, 100% hardware compatible and bug free. It simply cannot happen as we dont have source codes and drivers. Modders can try to use original files and software blobs but it will be always hit or miss. Huawei and Honor hardware working on Kirin SOCs is close sourced, not documented and not widely supported.

BKL-L09- Will we ever get the updates?

[email protected]_USA
Respected sir,
We Indian Honor 10 View users have a question to you, "Are we going to get updates for our phones or not?"
And personally saying, it's the first time I'm using Honor device and I'm quite happy with its performance.
I've used a lot of devices and have been active on many of the forums contributing to their respective development programmes.
But here, I'm kinda pissed seeing the threads that are only for the BKL-L04!
AREN'T WE BKL-L09 USERS HAVING THE SAME SPECS AS THEM?
We need an answer to this since you're their representative.
It's a humble request sir, we too want to see stable ROMS on this Indian variant!
PS : this isn't personal frustration or some kind of offence posting this thing! I'm just curious, that's all it is.
Do not take this personal and as a request instead.
Thanks,
Kaustubh

We're going to get some updates such as gpu turbo and emui 8.1 for the BKL-L09 but we have to wait. September for the turbo and a little more for android upgrade

I can understand fully why you would be frustrated. Unfortunately, I don't have info regarding update timelines for various regions. I only have info about the US.
You can maybe reach out on Twitter if you haven't already.
Already done that, no reply so far and furthermore I don't know who is the representative for Honor India.
Anyways, thanks for your reply sir.
It appears we won't get the GPU turbo update after all.

Hello , i am sorry to ask this kind of question. but are there any news about ?
Hello
I want to calm everybody down. This phone hasn´t been released yet in all countries. I bought it today as it was released today in Poland.
It will take time for devs to get the phone, wait for bootloader unblocking and then make something that at least boots and has WiFi.
I'm sure this phone will be popular, because there's not much difference between this and pro version.

Yes but K20/pro are quit long time in released, and much better support is for k20pro model, even in developer and stable chines firmwares. ( so it means in EU ROMs too. ) K20/pro models are exactly same as mi9t/pro, just missing band20 . we can use same roms.
I hope k20/mi9t will be popular as you said, but i am not so optimistic

Yeah, no much difference apart from completely different SOC. So, basically in terms of development, that makes it completely different and developing is being done from scratch. Especially if we take into consideration that SD 730 is quite new. So, sorry, but no sorry. The development will take time.

Yeah, also in my opinion it would make sense that the two phones (k20 pro and the Mi9T) had different forums. Yes they are similar in hardware but the most important part, the SOC is entirely different.
The k20/mi9t has been launched in India, it's a bit overpriced here, many devs here aren't buying it probably, they are instead buying k20pro/mi 9t pro, so development might be slow and less.
In the near future there will be nothing custom?
There are some roms in development on this site:
https://mifirm.net/model/davinci.ttt#other-other
You can also get all the stable versions available (eu/china/global) and a twrp recovery there.

As far as i understand:
k20 = mi9t
(k20 pro = mi9t pro)

Does anyone know why don't we get Android 10 ROMs on this phone?

So it's been almost two months since Android 10 release and still almost no sign of a ROM for the Mi 8 Lite. Does anyone have an idea what's so hard about building it? Or is it because of the small community of this phone?
Thanks for the answers
why anyone so cares about new version. what do you think that you will get with A10? new wallpapers, tones and new looking icons.
f you think that is so easy to create a build , than do it yourself

Custom roms will arrive before Xiaomi launches the official Android 10 update. I'm convinced.
