[UPDATE] Ascend Mate 7 not-stock-derivative ROMS development status
- Thread starter gabry3795
- Start date
Yeah like with every devices out there in factI really did heavy testing on this device, trying to install cm recovery and /system built on my own and I have always found a way to restore stock roms. A few months ago I also formatted /boot (which contains the kernel as you know, my mistake :silly/recovery and /system partitions at the same time and the device was stuck on huawei logo: so I could boot from the bootloader which allows you to reflash anything you want, this is the only pro of huawei devices I think.
I guess people who think they "hard brick" is because they try to restore a boot/kernel that's not compatible with the bootloader (for example a 5.x ROM with a 6.x bootloader). I'll think I'll stay on 5.x at start and take a deep look at cm12 even if people (you and @codeworkx) think its impossible (which is maybe the case). It would not be the first time I hear this while I did succeed (well it took me maybe 6 month for the amazon hdx 7 :/)

not think it's an theme as it is a competition among several cooks , I brought one month and is a rom flyme 100 OriginalI think that is a stock rom with flyme inspired theme
Hi,
I think we would need source code for this to be usefull.
Else @gabry3795 yes i am replacing my g3 with this, but you stress me now
That's said i do have minors problems with my touchscreen on my d855. I did broke the lcd a few month back, changed the sceeen twice and still have two screen touch rows not working properly. Also i like to change sometime .. Hope ill still enjoy the new one :/Edit: so i just received the mate 7. I did unlock BL, update from kk to lollipop (b329), installed twrp then did a backup. I'll try to take a look at cm12 in the next weeks.

UPDATE
With the last sources released I managed to build the kernel together with the CM13, but the phone does not boot: I'm stuck as when I built the CM12 but the difference is that now the kernel compiles perfectly with the main rom source.
I have updated the gits and the main post, everyone that can contribute to this project is ever welcome.

I just managed to build the kernel and repack it to the stock Android 6.0 B551. For now it's not useful but it's a big step towards a full build.

these are very good news .... wish you good luck .... and it would also like to test
Good luck ! Congrats for the great job. I'm following Mate7 threads since ages and running CM11 ATM but really wish to see upgrades pointing there. Thanks for your time trying to push things further.
In fact this a a really nice progress
Yesterday I synched your sources but I got some error when building cm13. There is definitely some problems on your github, I think it was related to the kernel build. I'll try to take a look but it would save some time if you fix your repos ( I mean sync cm13, pull your repos then go).

Yes, I have already fixed that. Please sync your fork with my repo and you will able to buildIn fact this a a really nice progress

There was a bad .gitignore that excluded some files when committing [emoji28]
Also look into the folder _useful, you will find lots of infos that I gathered from imgs.

By the way, what was the problem with the kernel not booting ? (I was stuck at the same place a few weeks ago)Yes, I have already fixed that. Please sync your fork with my repo and you will able to build

Okay [emoji6]
I have never faced this issue, does your kernel not boot? How have you re-packed the boot.img?
There was a problem with an #include but my kernel didn't bootloop even commenting that include! Now thanks to @acbka we have also the .h that was missing, I have already updated the kernel repo.

Well, i always ends up with this error :

I think there's still a problem with your repo (sepolicy).

I'm sorry for these issues but I'm working a lot on the code so even the repo it's not stable :/
