Just to Make it clear, Treble Vendor for A8/A8+ is been ported from A7 2018 Oreo. We have tested many Oreo GSI from phhuson generic list and they are booted with this vendor. We have also tested Pie GSI, most of them didn't booted but few did(Phh-AOSP-9.0).

What is GSI?
A Generic System Image (GSI) is a system image. It is considered a "pure Android" implementation with Android Open Source Project (AOSP) code that any Treble device can run successfully. For more info visit here : https://source.android.com/setup/build/gsi

any screenshots?

Is this the same vendor as in this thread (but it's only the vendor here), or are there any differences? (if this is any better/different, can I "upgrade" to it without wiping my existing phh-treble install?)

 

[AdYp98]

any screenshots?

This is not a ROM, just a Vendor which lets you flash GSI ROMS. Therefore, no screenshots could be given.

It's not the same, he fixes a lot of things to make it stable now (as NFC or Camera). About your installation question, I don't know.

ROM

Good night my friend. I wonder if using this increases the possibility of being compatible with other Roms, or does it basically equal to TWRP treble and creator treble equal to what you have here on another topic? If the answer is that it increases the possibility of roms compatible, can I do the installation over the other version creator and twrp treble? Sorry the English.

To anyone wondering: I've managed to replace my existing vendor+kernel by flashing the zip and suprisingly I had to remove the pattern lock from my phone and re-add it because system ui just chrashed every time I entered my pattern. Note: I'm on AOSP Phh-treble 9.0 V109 (I know V110 is already out but I'm lazy..)
Also I had to reflash magisk but that's expected after a new boot img.

Hi,

thank you so much for that vendor base. Everything seems to be ok, except one thing though : MTP does not work if i activate usb debugging. Is this vendor or gsi related ? btw i tried the four gsi you recommend in your original post, same behaviour. I'm on sm-a530f

Nice week end to all.

Thanks for the complement, issues related to mtp and usb debugging is because of magisk..... just report it to magisk developer with proper logs

It's just that I only checked the xda thread for phh treble and that still has v109 as the newest. (On github there is a v110 build) and I'm just lazy to upgrade, since this version is good for me.

About the thing, idk what you didn't get.
Anyways, great work!

How reliable is it? Is there any major bugs? How is battery life compared to OEM firmware?
