Did you miss the openKirin project? I hope you will support mate 20 pro !! it was a great project that !!! sin !
This looks interesting!! How was the camera quality of roms like this? I realise that we'd lose features but camera quality usually is lost when using camera apps other than the stock ones?

*UPDATE - just watched this video and see that they managed to port the stock camera - amazing!

I would LOVE to have rooted resurrection remix with stock Mate 20 pro camera - REALLY hope this is possible and will be eagerly awaiting/watching this thread...

unfortunately I talked to them and do not want to know they do not even support p20 pro ... boh not because a project that is called openkirin does not need to support devices with kirin

Oh now that is a shame.

I would love to see this! But at the very least, root/Magisk would be great :)

I have tried openkirin on the Mate 20 Pro.

My Learnings for OMNIROM Beta 3:
- Rom is stable and very usable
- Camera Software is same as original
- Fingerprint does not work properly
- IR Facescanning does not work properly (normal camera face scan works)
- ROM seems prerooted - at least root checks detect Manipulation

Confirm..
My OMNI Beta 3 has sound

Just wondering if the original usb-c earphone that came with the phone works in Omni beta 3? It wasnt working on RR beta 1.
Thank you!

No it's not. I also noticed autofocus in the stock camera app didn't work as well as it did in factory firmware. Had to close it and open it for it to focus.
