[ROM] [8.1.x] ArrowOS 8.x Oreo Official for Honor 5x (kiwi)

[KinG HeaD]

I appreciate you taking the time to grab a log. The instagram camera issue has already been addressed, there just hasn't been a new build that includes the fix yet. Expect one in the next couple of days.

oh sorry I read this reply and i thought it was only me

11/26 Unofficial Update


Includes instagram camera fix, in-call volume control fix, other optimizations

Please provide feedback

There's a couple of 12/7 pie builds with the fix. The official oreo monthly will include it as well, and that should be out this weekend. Don't thank me, thank dobo :highfive:

Okay, great. Thanks to you and dobo..

EDIT: Oh, who is dobo? Do not see him or her in your credits? Also, are logs okay from Syslog? Very easy app to use to capture them, and very complete. I can do a catlog from adb, but Syslog is easy as you only need your phone to take it...

Nope, that's my mistake! If you still have the problem on that build, I'll look into it. Thanks again for reporting.

I'm currently test driving Arrow 9.x, however I did get people telling me there was an echo when using the phone, but no echo via bluetooth.
This is in the 20181111 ROM. No such report for the previous 20181103.

Minor but how do I stop the "Changelog" notice from popping up in the supplied browser upon opening it? Had a look in its settings do not see option to disable it. Thanks.
Edit: fixed.

The rom itself is very good all around, thanks.

Try kernel aditor mod on it, just don't get carried away. The rom can take it. It really flies.

Everything is working good in that build no problems so far :good:

Unless you live in India(I've heard, maybe), you have to pay for it now. Try the hihonors website, they may be able to direct you to a unlocking site. The fee may be $50 , though. This phone is officially abandoned by honor ( not even a official webpage, last time I looked). Huawei/Honor stopped free unlocking this year.
Pin unlocking works, no more fading out on boot. I haven't added fingerprint back yet( but seriously, double tap to wake is good enough). I thought last, unofficial was good, but this is definitely better. May not update to pie, since I don't like Google's implementation of gestures, and Xposed edge's , a better.
Fingerprint works, quickly. Great rom.

IMEI info is back, but different no#. The first four numerals are correct, after they're different. Phone still operates normally, though(data, calls, wifi are fine). Will try my lockscreen/ fingerprint later(seems like no one else has the fading screen problem, upon boot, but mine), but for now, will enjoy the stability of selinux enforcing

Make sure it's already unlocked, but sounds like a plan. Good luck

I haven't seen any issues/complaints for this last update. This one is very good, and fixed a lot of issues(IMEI, and enforcing must have meant alot).
This seems to be the best 8.1 implementation of the bunch, as I read other post for this phone. No probs.
Good one coldhans. Fingerprint issue is gone

It's an amazing rom the performance is amazing and fluid , everything is working amazingly well , but the one thing that is missing is OTG it would be amazing if you add the OTG Support in the next build , thanks so much for the rom guys :good:

WIFI on channel 13 will only work on stock ROM

My router works a lot on channel 13.
Is there a workaround to let it work in the same way the stock ROM does?

Does this ROM have built-in system root like lineage os?
Answer please, I want to use this ROM.

Performance wise I recommend the Arrow Pie instead of this one.
They both don't have the built-in system root and you need to use either SuperSU or Magisk to root them.
In case you are going to use Magisk ( which gives you more control) remember to let the OS boot for the first time and finish the setup wizard; then flash Magisk.
Good luck
