[ROM][TREBLE][DISCONTINUED][FIGO]LineageOS 16.0 for Huawei P Smart 2018

[Aboutto09]

I experience exactly this, even on the most recent build. I'm on fig-lx1(c782).

What is your region code?

More generally do I need to switch it to c432 before trying again? Is it just a case of flashing oeminfo - I'm trying to end with a permanent hard brick.

Since it can't fix, it went back to EMUI 9, I have a Stock Rom with that version of Android

If you look in 'Settings - System - About phone' you can find the region code as part of the build number for the stock rom.

Hi, I have a problem with lineage OS 16 on my P Smart 2018, I use the version of TWRP 3.3, everything is fine when it comes to installing the rom, but the problem is when I am in the configuration wizard.
First: the Wi-Fi password does not recognize me, it tells me that it is not valid, it does not matter if I connect to another router or change the password to the router, it simply does not connect, I had to leave the router without a password and it was that I connected
Second: the other problem lies, in the google configuration it does not work, the screen remains black and from there it does nothing else, use the Opengapps ARM64 9.0 nano

I got to skip the google setup process on the first boot and update Android System Webview manually using an APK. That solved your second problem for me.

Did you have the WiFi and password issue? Either way, what is your region code? C782, C432, etc. Without being able to use secured WiFi I see no point in me going round the install and reset to stock loop again.

Cheers

I did not have the WiFi issue. My region code is C432.

Thanks, that is very helpful confirmation of what I suspected - I need to change my region code from C782 to C432 in order to get WiFi to work in lineage.

Cheers.

Did you try to reflash the stock recovery and do a factory reset through it?

I'm pretty sure I've tried that one, it was suggested early on in my attempts, and I'm still on stock :-(

I have the c432 oeminfo for the phone, just no experience of changing the region code and I'd rather avoid bricking the phone!

Cheers

Okay, don't try anything risky, I have the c432 version of the phone so I can't help you with c782 sorry :/

But you do help by confirming that the issue isn't present on C432

Oh no I had the issue on C432, but I didn't try the stock recovery method because I didn't knew it at the time, I gave the phone to my dad and I'm using a P Smart 2019 now.

Thanks for the clarification.

I've concluded not to buy Huawei again!

They aren't.

P Smart 2019 is kirin710

 

[Another_Alchemist]

P Smart 2019 is kirin710

And if you read the post #131 you'll see that p smart 2019 isn't the target device.

I'm hitting issues with p smart 2018 fig lx1 and WiFi. If you can give any helpful support on converting c782 to c432 that would be appreciated.

Looks like a great option to ditch Huawei's laggy EMUI 9 if everything works as expected and it seems like there will be no official updates anymore. I would gladly test it if my bootloader was unlocked.

Google search "PotatoNV" It worked for me.

Could anyone tell me which Gapps version actually works with the latest/last build? I've now tried to install OpenGapps pico, nano, full and stock (the ARM64 9.0 variant of course), and while the first two just hang inmidst setup (probably missing webview), the latter two are consistently crashing Pixel launcher over and over again.

While there is a Magisk module that fixes the Pixel launcher crashes on other LOS 16.0 devices, I can't get Magisk to work either. Patching the stock Recovery-RAMdisk with the Magisk app (as ist required for Huawei devices) seems to be successful, but after re-flashing the patched image via fastboot it's still not recognized within the Magisk app (and consequently the addon can't be used).

Any help would be appreciated.
