Project Treble Support? - LG G5 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Do you think that when and if lg releases Android 8.0 it would have support for Project Treble? Possible it would over time be done through development be done if people are still willing to for this device.

8.0 official upgrade with treble support? You should pray for LG to release Oreo for G5. It would be a miracle if they releases official Oreo upgrade. LG many told that G5 sales were disappointment for them. As far as project treble is regarded, there is possibly no chance LG would be giving that for G5 (Even G6 and V30 seems to not have project treble support). And Project Treble can only be supported if OEM gives it support. Developer probably can't give any device that support as it includes low (hardware) level programming and requires exclusive resources.

Hey I wouldn't even be surprised if LG releases their G7 and V40 phones with Android Nougat for 'logistic reasons' to avoid including Treble. They abandoned the G3 AT&T, US Cellular, and Sprint variants especially. They killed nougat support for the G4 as well. Not to mention they neglected to fully address bootlooping phones (5x, G4, V10). My next phone definitely will not be LG, likely Huawei, Xiaomi, Oneplus, Leeco, or ASUS. This customer support thread gives hope that the G5 will update to Oreo and get Treble: https://reddit.com/r/lgg5/comments/7fh1g7/will_lg_g5_receive_oreo_on_july_2018
If they do update the phone, it would be nice for them to update all variants this time around: H830, H850, H820, VS987, and RS988.

New Camera AI

Is the new camera AI part of Oreo 8.0, or is it a separate update? I've updated on Verizon, but see no new modes in the camera. Some people, after updating to Oreo, have reported that their splash screens now show V30S Thin Q. Mine doesn't. Is this all carrier related? Thanks

Not all Oreos have them. Mine updated to oreo and got 2-3 more updates before getting the ThinQ features (which weren't even announced until well after Oreo was released for Korean carriers). Maybe some carriers skip the earlier updates and go straight to the version with ThinQ but there's definitely previous oreo versions without these features.
AI should be separate. It’s an LG software, not a Google Oreo component. Though I think some of the Oreo updates received by some carriers from LG may include both.

Thanks to both replies.
That's what I thought. How would you know? Is it a Kernel version?

Security update, you have custom rom like los mokee or crdroid.
But for the rest, you right, welcome to consumer society.
Our 5x is slowly dying

Thanks a lot , exactly our 5x is slowly dying
if you had even bothered to search you would see that some devs are trying to bring oreo to the 5x but its not easy. the 5x is an obsolete budget device. huawei gave up on it after MM yet we have nougat thanks to hard working devs. the latest git posts show some progress on oreo and im sure they will eventually succeed in bringing oreo to the 5x.
for those that are impatient and want the latest update i suggest you buy a flagship with a strong dev community. nokia makes way better devices at a similar price point if money is an issue. anything released this year will come with treble support so i suggest buying something new.

Thats the point, if we dont had such great devs for los we would have nothing cause all customs roms dont care about old phones and so do manufacters.
I cant complain about this phone, best phone i bought with the oppo find7 which i lost.

not quite true, most devices have at least a bit of development interest but its not easy without having the necessary tools. thankfully google has made it easier with treble but it will still take some time until it spreads. it wont be long until os updates will come directly from google and not the OEM.
i wouldnt count on the 5x going past oreo. the good thing is that even budget devices are shipping with treble so a good selection of devices will be available from here on. im just waiting till the LG G6 gets oreo so i can ditch this phone. i hope everyone else has good alternatives.
Install lineage and get monthly security updates, who cares about oreo, if you want to have oreo functions customise your rom, there's no function on oreo that probably cant be added with an app

Petition for Project Treble Support for Note 8? Suggestions/Discussion

Hello Guys,
As the Topic says, what do you think about Project Treble Support for our Note 8! Should a Petition help us to bring it to our device? Your Kind Opinion/Suggestions required!
Thanks & Regards
No Treble for Note8
Since Samsung did not manage to import Treble in the new Oreo version, I think there will never be a treble for the Note8.
Now it will be even harder to implement Treble.
I don't think it would be even possible as an OTA update to do so, somebody explained it in another thread, personally I'm not bothered but at least going forward any Android launched with Oreo will support project treble, to the vast majority of user I don't think it matters
An earlier XDA article mentions that Google are working with some companies (no specific company mentioned). It could mean that maybe samsung will work with Google to ensure project treble to our device but we simply don't know yet. Fingers crossed though.

You're talking about downgrading your device.
Any phone which is launched with Oreo has to support Treble. I doubt an OEM would add support for Treble to a budget device which launched without it.

I know that,But the Snapdragon 630 chipset is enough for me,and moto g6 plus have 5.7 screen, support project treble,Better battery.
If you've already have Moto mods, the Z3 play is around the corner

LG G6 vs Honor 10

Hello,
can you tell me please which phone is better ?
Im deciding about this two phones.
I love this notch display, but the LG G6 has IP68 and i think better support with android and custom roms.
I recommend Honor 10.
It is a newer phone and has more power under the hood. Also, Huawei provides better support for its devices and more timely security updates. My daughter's Honor 6x has the Junes patch while my G6+ is till on January's.

"Huawei provides better support for its devices" - Simply, no.
"[...] more timely security updates" - It's true but only for the newest flagships. They stopped updating my last phone after a year.

I had a same issue last week trying to decide wheather to pick up LG G6 or Honor 10.
Honor 10 is a newer phone has more storage and a newer processor which means it will be faster. It also has a new slick look with barely any bezels although LG G6 has similiar screen to body ratio. LG G6 on the other hand has SD card support and IP68 and also is a last year flag ship phone(even though it was the slowest of flagships last year)
I have never owned a Huawei so I don't know how they handle updates for their phones but I believe both Honor and LG G6 should be updated to Android 9 in the future.
In the end I went with LG G6 mostly due to sd card support, IP68 and ability to unlock bootloader and flash custom roms. As far as I know Huwaei has recently stopped providing official ways to unlock bootloaders in their phones which means that there won't be many if any custom roms for Honor.(You might want to post this in Honor 10 forums to confirm that).
if you are confused with G6 and P10 or P20 my answer was pretty obvious: P10 or P20 was better than G6, but talking about Honor, well, G6 have better features and allow custom rom's and so on...things if you like you gonna miss with Honor 10.
overall Honor can have a better speaker, a better and more pleaseble screen but in the end G6 win for the amazing camera and sd card support.
Honor 10 no OIS no IP68 dust/water proof (up to 1.5m for 30 mins), MIL-STD-810G compliant
that was my point to pick G6 over Honor 10
if the look and compact size your first and last priority then pick honor 10
Everything except g6
Lg is a lier and i recommend you don't buy any lg product.
I bought Honor 10. guys thanks for nice advices
