NOTES

1. I'm pretty sure that AEX team is no longer updating the security patch, but probably other guys will do it and submit the changes to them. Don't expect me to update the security patch because i won't. I would do that only for AOSP or LineageOS.
2. Don't report issues related to ROM's features. I'm not gonna fix that.
3. Auto brightness option seems to be missing or i didn't find it. I already have the config in overlay which says that auto brightness is supported and it works on LineageOS (and worked on AEX nougat too. I've took a look at 2-3 device trees from their github, but i didn't find other overlay (or maybe i was blind? lol). I'll look more someday, but it's definitely not my priority since auto brightness is fucking up most of the times anyway.

Known issues (same as LineageOS 15):

• selinux is permissive
• some saturation issue in camera while it is focusing (it was present on lineage 14 too)

Requirements

• Huawei Nova CAN-L11 (should work on the other models too)
• Unlocked bootloader ( here's a guide about how to unlock it). If you don't have the unlock key, then you no longer can unlock it. You gotta thank Huawei for not allowing unlocked bootloader anymore.
• TWRP for Oreo.
• Make sure you've updated to EMUI 5 first. I don't mean that you need to be on EMUI 5 now, but that you've updated to EMUI 5 before. I don't know if it works if you were on EMUI 4.

Installation

Make sure you meet the requirements listed above.

1. Download the ROM and put it on sdcard. If you want GAPPS too, then download MindTheGapps (mirror or Open Gapps too (choose arm64, 8.1 and pico or other variant if you want more gapps).
2. Reboot in TWRP by pressing all 3 buttons (Volume UP + Volume Down + Power).
3. Wipe system, data, cache and dalvik-cache.
4. Flash the ROM from the directory where you've placed it.
5. Flash lineage's root addon / GAPPS (OPTIONALLY).
6. Reboot.

Thanks for this! Running nicely so far.

Also guys, don't try to dirty flash over LOS15.1, you will run into a lot of issues. I tried because I am lazy but had to do a clean install anyways.

I haven't tested that and I'm quite surprised that it doesn't work. Thanks for the log. I'll see what I can do about it.

1. Screen brightness seemed fine to me, besides the missing auto brightness option which I've mentioned at notes in the first post.
2. You can root with phh Superuser, Magisk. Lineage's root is meant only for lineage. I'm sorry, but I didn't know that root is not included, otherwise I would've mentioned this as well.

Hentake, when you will upgrade the ROM to fix the audio error on the headphones that is not working. I really like the AOSP Extended ROM

First of all, it's Henkate, not Hentake. You can also just call me Robert, which is my real name xD.

LineageOS is the main ROM I'm working on and I'm firstly fixing the issues in the device sources, so then the fixes are included in AEX and then I can take a look at the headphones issue.

I've searched a bit through AEX's telegram and it seems that the headphones detection issue was / is present on other phones too, which makes me think that it can be an issue in AEX's sources.
As promised, I'll take a look at the log which @hscnhs shared, but if I find out that's a problem in AEX's sources, then I may not fix that because I've lost the interest in AEX before I've built it and I've built and published it only because I've promised that.

 

[EduardoBoese]

I'm sorry to have misused your username. I am grateful that you created the AEX ROM, I always liked it, it would be a great pity if you stopped working on this ROM. Thanks, I'll be waiting for our update to fix this big one. Cya Robert.

All good work

On some devices, the sound from the speaker does not work. The solution is:
1. Install the firmware via TWRP
2. Install this file via TWRP ( https://www.mediafire.com/file/aoprwc1b7avxw36/Patch.zip/file )
