*I didn't mean to insert a non-English text, the error was in the auto translation of the page.
Thank you for understanding.
Please, is TWRP .img also installed via ODIN?
Installed via TWRP: Install → Image → Recovery

Just to make it clear I'm not responsible for whatever damage this could possibly cause to your device.
Treble is everywhere, so why shouldn't we join it?
I'm proud to announce that Galaxy A8 [SM-A530F/SM-A530W] will now fully support project treble . Exciting right ?

Last Updated 2019-01-2932I've updated TWRP with the /vendor patch to 3.6.0_9-0 if anyone wants an updated version → https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=3309362Hello everyone, here are my personal quick notes on few last Quack AOSP releases, using Pie vendor and Quantum v4 custom kernel. I did not try the System-as-Root patch yet, so I'm sticking with A-only for now. Many of them (if not all!) can be found easily using @phhusson's GSI list.
My tests are based on basic needs, I try to install and launch several APKs, I watch different video streaming sources, I check the bootability (if able to reboot in "one cycle", or more), I'm looking for google/others trackers operating in background and slowing the phone. I haven't tried advanced radio features like BT or LTE/VOLTE features. But for those of you who just arrived here and managed to TREBLE-ize your device using this great guide, this can save you some time of testing.
The criterias I'm looking after are, by importance: stability>privacy=rapidity>long battery lasting>UI customization.
20200129 ArrowOS : stuck on rom boot animation
20200317 crDroid v6.4 : stuck on rom boot animation
20200326 Bliss v12.5 : stuck on rom boot animation
20200408 AOSP phh v215 (vanilla + floss) : sleeping state reboots bug + floss "recents" button of navbar not working
20200413 Descendant X : sleeping state reboots bug
20200413 LineageOS v17.1 : sleeping state reboots bug
20200414 CAOS v215 : looks very stable, and quiete fast
20200422 HavocOS v3.4 : looks stable, lots of UI customization options, but have google stuff inside so not for me
20200423 crDroid v6.5 : looks stable once booted, even on sleeping state, but freezes and reboots several times when asked for a restart
20200505 AOSP phh v216 : sleeping state reboots bug (in floss variant - haven't tried vanilla yet)
20200506 ion v2.6.a: full of google's crap; didnt see any vanilla or floss build on Github. + hard time getting past the init launcher, rebooted many times on the way
20200509 BLESS v216 : looks stable, many UI customization features, good battery saving
I'm using the last one for a week now and only saw a quick "bug", not sure it is one, could be some options to change too. When the phone is down a table (for example), in sleeping state, clock will sometimes freeze itself. You have to pick the device up from the flat surface, to actualize the clock.
I mostly used vanilla variants, at least when I found some. Next on the list is CAOS v216 from @eremitein, I'm downloading it at the moment. Big thanks to him, by the way.
Many of the GSI's I tried have to reboot several times when asked for a restart. Does anyone know what's causing this? And if and how it can be fixed?
Special thanks to @prashantp01 for compiling the needed infos to make it possible quiete easily!2
