Chromeos runs on Android trebled Tablets? - Treble-Enabled Device Questions and Answers

Hi users and Devs
My question is that will Chromeos be ported on a trebled phone or most importantly on a trebled tablet?
Some people are trying to make Chrome OS run on any other platforms https://forum.xda-developers.com/ha...ide-installing-official-chrome-os-pc-t3865697
Thank u in advance

Read the first line of the post:
This project is aimed at making Chrome OS (the official releases by google) available for any non-chromebook devices (ATM The device must be able to boot from live USB, this excludes most Android-only devices);

Will it happen? Maybe down the road but we have bigger hurdles to cross for the time being.

True, but hopefully PrimeOS or PhoenixOS will be ported to Android trebled tablets

Cm-13.0 - development/discussion thread

Hi,
So, cm-13 is very unlikely on our device, but i'll take a look anyway (a slow look as my time is very limited).
Here you'll find my "work" and "help requests".
First, for sure i didn't "worked" on a lot of device, but it's the first one i have with a dedicated partition to the kernel dts.
Code:
/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/dts /dts emmc defaults recoveryonly
+/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/boot /boot emmc defaults recoveryonly
+/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/recovery /recovery emmc defaults recoveryonly
+/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/misc /misc emmc defaults recoveryonly
+/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/modem /modem emmc defaults recoveryonly
+/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/modem_dsp /modem_dsp emmc defaults recoveryonly
+/dev/block/platform/hi_mci.0/by-name/sensorhub /sensorhub emmc defaults recoveryonly
- I wonder if the dts, which is kernel dependent, could be the major problem to get a custom rom version (kk, jb, mm), or even a stock huawei rom, to work from any base rom. I'll try to make some experiment soon.
- I did sync cm-13, and "of course" have cwm recovery working. But whatever i'm trying i can't get screen output on twrp 3.0. Does someone have a clue on this?
- @gabry3795 , do you still have the device ? I would be happy to get your hangout/google nickname if you have any to sometime talk about this device. @codeworkx is of course also welcome for any advice. By the way your cm12.0 github repo (codeworkx) doesn't seem's to be up to date, even if i understand that's it's in a non-working state.

Yes, I still have this device! I'll write you via pm my nickname.
good luck you guys
i have really nothing to offer ..
but please make this happen ..
Unfortunately I really have no time to play with it this days, I'll try to take a look soon.

why is there not one custom rom for this device?

because huawei refuses to share their kernel source. suffice it to say, im done with huawei. its a good thing that there are many new phones being released soon. from now on its snapdragon or nothing!

As I understand there are some crucial files / source codes that Huawei is refusing to release to the public. This alone sounds super dodgy, because isn't Android supposed to be open source? Or can companies "own" a custom version of Android and do this sort of thing?
These files are crucial for creating custom kernels and ROMs, as they have to do with (once again, this is how I interpreted it) how the device handles the CPU and GPU.
Basically, while it is possible to install other ROMs on the device, they'll have to be based on EMUI and its kernels, because it is the only thing that contains these files necessary to make the device run, which makes the entire exercise pointless because EMUI is s*** no matter what form it takes.
I wonder if it wouldn't be possible to simply "extract" this necessary code from the stock kernels / ROMs and implement it in a custom one? I do not know even the slightest thing about programming, so I could just be sounding like an idiot.

i too have wondered about this. im sure its possible but it might be far to difficult an endeavor because if it weren't, someone would have attempted it by now. i really miss my nexus 5 with all its custom roms. i suggest that all mate 7 owners get in contact with huawei and demand they comply with the android user agreement. they are technically supposed to give up sources. we could fight, but not unless we unite.
Yes we can! Yes we can! Yes we can!

You're right, extracting stock binary files is an essential part of roms porting but some important files can't be inherited because they are strictly hardware-related, therefore you have to compile the original android source and then "patch" that files for the specific GPU/CPU (starting from android 5 lollipop) with other files given by the vendor of the phone.

But isn't that the entire problem, the "other files" that have to be supplied by the vendor? Huawei is refusing to release them, and therefore making it impossible to develop custom ROM's.
Or are you saying that it is possible, but there just isn't enough interest in the phone for anyone with the necessary skills to actually go through the trouble?

I'm saying that Huawei must provide that 'patches' (as Qualcomm did, for example) otherwise is impossibile to build a working ROM, this is the problem. We cannot do anything without them.

this is why we should all come together so as to put pressure on huawei to release these files. i have been trying for months now but its getting very tiresome. im going to start a twitter account that will hopefully get their attention. i think the problem is that the general public dont know much/anything about custom roms. there should be a custom rom psa for all android users that point out the benefits of custom roms.

Agreed.
Unfortunately I live in a place where just picking up a new phone is not as easy as 123, But I think I'll try and get my hands on a different phone this weekend. Huawei pisses me off.
No source release by Huawei.
No Kirin SOC support would be a huge problem to get it working I think.

Project Treble

As we all know our 1+5T doesn't support project treble,
so my question is,
is this hardware or software dependent?
In other words,
is it possible for devs to find a way to implement it in future custom roms or in a kernel for our dumpling?
Or would this just be impossible?
Thanks in advance

Good question.
At least one would need to repartition internal card, if I understood. This alone is not impossible but a bit hard and not without risk.
That said often I wonder if it could be possible to boot, say, TWRP (or any other Linux) from USB and take full dd backup of internal card for all certainty (and then repartition). This is how many Android TV boxes can be backed up (they use u-boot infrastructure). So why not phones?

This question has been discussed lots before.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/change-org-project-treble-op5t-t3709841
Implementing Project Treble would require repartitioning storage. Also, it gives literally zero benefit to a custom ROM.
TL;DR: It's never going to happen.

Perhaps there is no functional benefit. But porting seems easier for some devices:
What about :

This is the Samsung Galaxy S9 running on AOSP Android Oreo thanks to Project Treble

Yup, somebody saw a mountain and decided to climb it. We'll see what comes of it.
Yeah mokee ROM has treble working on the OnePlus One 5T. There's an unused partition that can be created without re-partition in the device and if you install a regular ROM it doesn't see it you install a treble ready ROM and you previously had mokee installed according to the mokee dev it works. It uses the ab style of treble. There is an "a" and "ab" and "a/b" versions from what I read. Mokee is releasing nightlies of their ROM
Haven't tried it on mine pretty happy with the aicp Oreo that I'm running so I can't tell you what bugs it has. Google it XDA has a discussion on mokee and treble with OnePlus 5t

X Compact - Kugo?
Can you update for Kugo compatibility? If so, is Yoshino also possible?
Could you write what works and what doesn't in this version?
Is it a modified version from UBports? I resently installed it and there are some serious problems.... For example camera doesn't work properly (no video or zoom), Anbox is not combatible with this device and more...
It can't be used as a daily driver. Nice project, but it needs more people... Several years have passed and only one or two phone models are working good enough to be used as main devices.

How bad do you think Sony will ruin Android 12?

Since Android 10, Sony hasn't been able to provide a decent UI.
How bad will they screwed it up this time?
It not Sony, it's Android 11/12.

Not at all, the base code is perfect. Sony devs are blind. It would take 2 hours to fix everything.

Android's implementation of scoped storage is the disaster. Minimum 1 year to fix all the broken pieces but more likely 2-3 years.
It's a fubar.
I have no love of Sony. I doubt even Samsung can tone down 11 enough. Samsung struggled mightily to make Q functional. Dozens of small apks added to plug the holes in Q.
With R the dam broke... a flood of boring, user restrictive Apple surge forward, drowning it's users in security.

actually did you flash the userdata img? sometimes the data is incompatible with older versions like 11. also erase the metadata. happened to me when i was trying to flash a rom not long ago.

Question WHY IS THERE NO DEVELOPMENT FOR CAPRI?

I have always been a lover of putting roms on mobiles, but when Motorola has already confirmed that Capri will stay at 11, it is a pity that there is no developer that develops a customization with 12 or 13 android... although they would have to build it first TWRP..... is anyone up???

Hey there, me, @thebestofall007, and some others are working on building LineageOS for borneo, which has most of the same internals as capri. Maybe we could collaborate?

Hi @Fazwalrus @thebestofall007 I tried building it but had few issues with my laptop always restarting when it comes to 98% of building. I felt it was something to do with my ssd failing as I had only the required amount of disk to build and may be a bad ic or something. I bought one more hdd now. Can start building on it. Let me know when you are about to start.
Cool. You can join the Moto G Power (2021) group chat, and we can discuss this further.

I've tried building a few times but I run into errors. Try running memtest86 on your ram to see if any of it is bad. That could be why it's restarting.
