How to get LineageOS 15 (project treble) for ZenFone 4? - Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Questions & Answers

A dev team managed to port a ROM of LineageOS for Android O enabled devices that is Project Treble certified. The Asus ZenFone 4 ZE554KL is certified as a A device in Project Treble. Since according to the dev team, this device should work with this ROM. How do we get it to work on the ZenFone 4?
This is where the project is located at...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...evice-development/lineage-phh-treble-t3767690
The sooner we get this working the better! I am so sick and tired of ZenUI!

I tried to follow all the instructions listed here with no luck. Anyone have ideas on how to get this working?

Nope.

This project may actually help us! https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr.../tool-capire-le-treble-terble-vendor-t3774629

Has anyone tried this out to put project treble on the zenfone 4?

There is a YouTube video where it shows how you can make your own rom with that method. It looks like you need Linux which I can use. The Dev unfortunately has not given detailed instructions on what to do yet even though I requested it.

Any news about that?

does anyone have any updates on this?
It would be of great help to us if we had any other alternative ROM for replacing ZenUI, I hope that some DEV will help us. I unfortunately do not modify your ROM. Help us dev's :/

[REQUEST] Full TWRP backup from stock MTL03

Would someone be able to provide a 100% backup from this device? I don't need user data.
Thats what I need to. Did you here here anything back.
No, I'm trying to compile cyanogenmod, but I have the consumer cellular variant. And is prefer not pulling files from it to use. I'd rather use stock.
Can you use these from @jayandcourt2

Hi,
Please check this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/asc...to-fix-soft-bricked-phone-using-twrp-t2886630
I have MT2_L03, I don't have un-rooted pure stock system anymore. But please let us know if you need anything.
Also, I have a working CWM recovery config, not sure if it helps:
https://github.com/xordos/android_device_huawei_MT2L03/tree/cm-10.2
Maybe I will post this to DEV section so more people can see it.
EDIT: post the cwm config here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/asc...-clockworkmod-recovery-config-mt2l03-t2924526
Thanks

Has anyone heard anything else as far as possible custom rom? I know USA Huawei is releasing Lollipop next year. I wonder if people are waiting for. Also has anyone requested the source code for 4.3

I know several developers have the Mate2 and were working on it. Below is the link to the kernel source code for MT2-L03. It was released on the EMUI site several months ago.

This is the source code for the ROM?
If yes, why this is a 180mb file when the ROM is like 600mb?
Could you clarify?
Thanks!
Its the source of the kernel
I am also interested in a full backup of this phone.

Custom ROM Progress/Collaboration?

I am curious if anyone is currently working on getting CM (or any custom ROM) working for our devices. I'm not trying to bug anyone or get an ETA, but I was thinking about attempting to port CM with their tutorial.
If anyone is working on porting a ROM, or has any tips for me I'd love to talk. Thanks.
I've just started looking into porting CM over to the 5x. I've never built a port before and I'm a bit lost in the CM documentation for it. Feel free to PM me or post below with any tips or advice.

I have only built unofficial builds before, but hopefully since we have source and other Huawei devices with CM, it should be fairly easy.
If you haven't built CM for a device that it's already been ported to, I'd recommend doing that before you attempt to port it.
Good luck. I'll post any progress I make.
Am too eagerly waiting for cm on 5x .fed up of bad performance from stock .heating up too much .I was really disappointed by the heating problem .
What else I had hopes On was the on cm12.1 or 13 .
I usually check for a thread if anyone build one cm ROM for our device but still the development haven't started !

It's still early. The fact that Huawei makes bootloader unlock codes available and has provided the amount of source code for the kernel that they have has allowed development here to happen much more rapidly than many devices do (particularly devices that lie out side of "volume" interest -- like an S5 or S6). I'm pretty optimistic.
The flip side is that life is so busy for me at the moment that it makes patience pretty easy (as in, if a stable cm13 suddenly became available I still would take my sweet time in getting around to flashing it). If I had more time on my hands it would probably be different.
Yes lets see how long we need to wait !
Can someone (hopefully a dev like @deadman96385, @EarlyMon @cyrusalmighty) confirm/agree that the Honor 5X's (I have KIW-24, US ver.) vendor = HONOR and codename = HNKIW-Q. I'm a little perplexed by what the codename is since HNKIW-Q doesn't seem right. I got that name from the build.prop ro.product.device like CM recommends.
Can anyone confirm that I have the vendor and codename right? Thanks.
EDIT: After looking at similar Huawei devices (Ascend Mate 2) it looks like the codename should just be "kiw". The Mate 2's actual ro.product.device = hwMT2LO3, but it's CM codename is "mt2." Because of this, I think for the CM codename should be "kiw". Does that sound right?

In theory but the kiw stands for kiwi this info is directly from Huawei and we all like Kiwi more lol. You also do have a L24 US variant

Thanks. So any custom ROM development for this device will be like Huawei/kiwi? I'm just wondering, because I'd like to know how I should be naming my files specific to Honor 5X ROM development.
EDIT:
Also, @deadman96385 do you mind sharing the partition sizes you used for building TWRP?
Name it kiwi .it sounds really great ! Moreover i dont what others are thinking on naming this device ,but kiwi is maximum minds .Go for it !

I didn't realize you had already started working on a CM port. I guess I can't really help out then. :/
Don't get me wrong, I do really appreciate all the work you do for this device.

Le Pro 3 Elite (X722) Lineage OS

Hi All!
Is there a way to get lineage 14.x on le pro 3 Elite (X722)? I've been searching online, but all information seems to be related to X720 model, and there is basically nothing (or very little) regarding the X722... I was hoping to be able to root my device, Install lineage OS, and then un-root (due to using some corporate apps which don't allow devices to be rooted).
Please let me know in case you have some info. I will greatly appreciate your help!
Thanks!
Mick
Hey
As far as i know Leeco didn't released their open source code for x722 and that's why there is no custom roms. I'm a little bit confused because they shared their open source code for many models and i don't know why they didn't do that for x722 :C
tried booting this rom

I didn't tried any rom and at the moment i don't have this phone. I think different processor than in leeco x720/x727 make it useless to use the 720/727 rom for this device and can only lead to brick phone.
So why does TWRP for x720/x727 work flawlessly on x722?
Also lineage OS developer for lepro3 asked if anyone can give him log files from lineage boot on x722 then he can probably make it work. It seems the issue is not CPU (i guess it is same linux kernel and drivers anyway), but somehow changed boot sequence of the x722 then x720/x727, but i don't really understand this stuff.

thats why I dislike this company. They have placed very small batteries in their phones and removed headphone jacks and no sdcard slot. Plus they are not releasing sources of these China specific models.

I don't agree regarding the battery, but an sd slot I definitely miss... the phone itself is good, but it really sucks that we can't put lineage on it. I wish I did proper research before buying it, as I would probably go for a different one.

yea you are right . I saw x626 with 4/64gb on gearbeast for less than 140. But I cancelled the order because there is no ROM support. This model was not released outside of China so it has no google play store originally and no MTK model was made for market outside CN like the 1s thus flashing Indian/Russian or other international ROM is not a possibility.
did anyone update a lineage ROM on the Le Pro x722?

could anyone try and test the lineage at this page download.lineageos.org/zl1 and try it with the x722 and check if it all works good? or do you have any similar hint?

The problem is that the bootloader is locked and there is currently no root for the device... and as it seems like there will never be. one...
It would make this phone so much better if we had the chance to put lineage on it, as LeEco is going under (if not already), and there will be no future updates to the software, even though there are so many bugs... such as you can't change default browser, expand notifications, and so on....

yes, and the camera not auto-focusing when changing from a far to a closer focus or the contrary and you have to be tapping on the screen every time
so in the end maybe the lineage 14 for the x720 and x727 might work fine but the point is that the x722 has a locked door about bootloader and can't open and enter to work on it?

Yes, exactly. This lineage for x720 might work, but currently there is no way to install it.... I really hope that sometime in the future, installing lineage will be possible, that someone figures it out (fingers crossed it happens sometime soon)

If you have American single sim model then you have to unlock bootloader first then try. I heard most roms are compatible but I am not sure about NFC status.

I will also be able to help once my phone arrives. Wondering what firmware i'll get it with (from BangGood).
When I scanned xda I saw official lineage for x72x so i assumed it was supported - the title is a bit misleading. Probably wouldn't have ordered it if I read the whole thread.
That said, I'm in it for the long haul now, and might actually be a good opportunity for me to actually give something back to the xda community (besides $).
Too many wrong infos in this topic.
- Bootloader is locked ONLY in 026s stock rom and it CAN be unlocked by flashing 001d dev release.
- You DON'T flash x720 roms to x722 since you will easily get a nice brick.
- You DON'T flash stock 026s through TWRP (especially from geekbuying vendor 020s rom with twrp)
- x722 has root in tora33 custom rom - this is a fresh stuff so check that thoroughly

Android Oreo for mi pad?

I'm not sure that will mi pad get android Oreo unofficial though it's capable of running smoothly and google has already given the source code so let's hope to get it on our beast. Support this thread and hopefully the developers would read and help us. ?
Like your enthusiasm. But first let us get a proper build of Android N. I am sure once we get everything going for N, developers will shift their attention to O as I believe our hardware is plenty capable to run the OS.
I don't think android n stable?
The UI of android n is glitchy and some laggyness is there. ?

lol the android N in our tab is still on beta stage, don't hope for an android O.
this kind of thread shouldn't make at first place though
Developers are working with shield kernel once that is finished you can hope for Oreo

General Pre-rooted Roms

I just started a new project for taking roms and pre rooting them so when installed the OS is already rooted. I have a p6 so since I just started that is the only device I have roms for. If you use another device and want to help make these roms pretty me know. Mod edit: Link to TG channel removed.
