Nice!

At this point I think that, like us who bought the Mi8 Pro, has bought a phone born dead. No support from Xiaomi, no updates, no modding, not even security patches

I still keep hope in deep heart.

What exactly is this source code for?

Sorry, just a noob question, why this model don't is supported from community? No Rom, no modding, nothing of nothing, is so different from Mi8 (dipper)?

I will save you a lot of trouble by saying dont even try. Even the best dev would have a lot of troubles, xiaomi dont release kernel sourcea etc. Thats why its extremely difficult and i wouldnt get my hopes up if i were you.

Aosp is stock android. Anyways, you still need drivers, kernels etc. Its not an easy process.
Sometimes Xiaomi releases Sources, most of the time it is after a while.
Until source is release for Mi5s (most likely within a few months from now) you can try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5s/themes/stock-android-n-look-feel-miui-t3516804

Yep 64 bit device tree pretty exciting bit you need to switch your recovery to the new 64 bit one. Can't share the source sorry.

Hello people, I just wanted to say if you want to have a tester that makes long-term tests then like to write. I write only private if it is desired. And do not tell anyone unless you give me permission.
If vache released a 64bit rom then awesome he is king of the g5 plus but is it available for download yet?

I ordered a 7x last week from the Huawei Honor website, the tentative ship date that they said was 12/15 so I don't know if AliExpress can start shipping prior to that?

Got my Honor 7X, love the phone.
as far as development is concerned it all depends on how many devs it attracts and since XDA is getting sponsorship from them then i think it will be a magnet for devs.
also throw me any questions about the phone.. would love to answer more..

Project Treble is not entirely dependent on android 8
though i know even google claims that treble is supported on 8.0 onwards
but as far as we know :
For those of you who have followed the custom ROM scene for years, you might already be aware with how significant this news is. XDA Recognized Developer OldDroid called this revelation a “breakthrough” in custom AOSP ROM development. Thanks to Project Treble support, for example, I was able to boot a nearly fully functioning Android 8.0 Oreo ROM on the Huawei Mate 9—a device that until now hadn’t even seen a single AOSP Android Nougat ROM.

so a (partial working) oreo build was compiled for a phone which didnt even see Nougat release.. its all on the partition and devs going forward with excitement leading to better support and faster releases..

Honor 8x source code from openkirin.

Hi there,
I was just searching through Google to see if huawei had released the source code for Honor 8x.
Guess what!!!!
It is there in the open kirin website. I've downloaded it but I'm not a dev.
So I'm sharing this here so that someone with kirin soc development experience can work with this and possibly, get the development going for Honor 8x.
Here is the link.

I think only because of bootloader unlock not available officially for Honor anymore.
probably because it now costs 50 dollars to unlock the bootloader

Saw on taobao many phone root solutions, rmb 5-10
Just input at search field
华为root
(Huawei root)
荣耀root
(Honor root)
Thousands of people paid for these services, even 'unrootable' phones (Vivo, Meizu, Oppo etc) can be rooted.
In their Huawei FAQ, most models can be rooted, I saw 8x, 8x Max (EMUI8) , Honor Play, Honor V10 (View 10), although they did not mention the latest phones. Some comments and review are from 2019!
EMUI9 updated-phones also can be rooted, best not to update before rooting. Try messaging the staff for best answer.
Google Chrome can auto translate page, best do it on PC.

Phone uses a SOC that just does not get much development in general. It's not the A70's fault per se. See Google Pixel 3a, or Xiaomi A3. Barely any development. Most roms are just half-baked, have "sleep death" and whatnot bugs.
That said, check the SD 855 for example. Same story. OnePlus 7 Pro just got official LineageOS, but if you check Xiaomi Mi 9 or Mi 9T Pro - both are dead.
The SD845 had more development going on for sure. Oh well.

Development is already underway for a70. We already have a functional twrp and the dev's are completing the source compilation to start custom rom building. Just need to fix the fp part. Will be done in a timely manner because we have some great and dedicated developers onboard.
