Android 9 (Pie) for Wileyfox?

[KraftwerkElectro]

Since updating to Oreo battery has not been good.
I'm hoping Wileyfox will be giving us Android Pie which will fix the notification and battery issues.

You can install an unofficial Project Treble and find the GSI Android Pie.

Have you tried it, and does it fix the above problems?
Do you have a link?

I tried Project Treble based on Android Oreo and Pie - I didn't really like it.
Firstly, the device certification may fail (you need to install the Magisk module).
Secondly, on some GSI there is such a problem that the phone simply does not see the headphones.
Thirdly, for some GSI Pie it is necessary to install additional patches for the camera or NFC to work. Also it should be taken into account that there are other bugs that, for the time being, cannot be fixed.
But if you find a stable GSI, then you can use it. I recommend AOSP GSI.

Hi!
Usually there are 6 working cores out of 8. This is the cause of bad energy saving. You could using Kernel Adiutor or editing file /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/core_ctl/min_cpus.
But on version 8.1, the value is restored after the change, so it must be committed.

You must execute this simple script after each reboot. (You can move it in init.d dir) Dont forget give execution rights to script ex. chmod 777

#!/system/bin/sh
chmod 777 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/core_ctl/min_cpus
echo 0 >> /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/core_ctl/min_cpus
chmod 555 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/core_ctl/min_cpus

Thanks for the reply, but I'm no expert and the script you mention, I don't understand how to do this, without step by step instructions.
Once I've done it once it will be easier the next time.

Do you know if this is affecting a lot of mobiles that run Oreo?

Do you have superuser? Init.d?

Sorry, but I don't even know what 'Init.d' means.

Has anyone run this script? Does it work?

I just ran it, anyway to check what its done?

You can see that 4 of 8 cores is working if there isn`t any heavy running processes in Kernel Adiutor. Also battery life will be increased.
You can try disable cores using Kernel Adiutor, but it don`t working on Oreo.
My script commits and prevent from editing this value using chmod

I have found Android P but it not official Lineage OS. It has a lot of bugs. Camera, fingerprint scanner, nfc, wifi and ringtone dont working. Also SELinux is permissive.
