Why not merge the x722 and x720/x727 rom in a new forum space so we dont need to mantain 2 posts for the same rom?
Because people will get confused and flash the wrong ROMs on their devices, potentially causing a brick. We have enough people with bricked x722s as is.

Hello, the division is necessary, because there are incompatible roms, but ...
No need to put a rom in both places.
When it's exclusive for X722 it goes here.
When it is for both terminals, it is set to "LE PRO 3" and indicated in a description compatible with X722.
I guess that's better than posting twice
Greetings.
How come roms are compatible with both x720 and x722 if you need to hardcode the cpu name and also put in different firmware blobs(ex. gpu). Has anyone tested the roms here that say x720/x722 on both devices? If not, we can't be sure.
And can someone tell what led to brick with the x720 roms on x722?
As for the merge, i think it will be messy to post to x720 forum only and the x722 probably won't notice the stuff that's there.
That was before codeworkx work
All new roms will be compatible with both devices

Thats why I am not saying delete this two, I am saying make a new one for roms compatible with both which is every new rom
I think it's a great idea. It could be called "LeEco Le Pro3 Cross Device Development (X720/X722/X727)"
Look at e.g. OnePlus 3 "OnePlus 3 & 3T Cross Device Development" https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/oneplus-3--3t-cross-device-development

Yes, that's a good idea:good:
After reading up on yet another person bricking their x722 because they thought they could flash any ROM they wanted, and then flashing TWRP over stock 26s (leading to a perma brick)... I don't know anymore. On one hand, it creating a new sub-forum for cross-development may stop and force these users to think before doing anything, or it might lead them to believe all x720 ROMs are compatible with the x722, due to a lack of understanding (maybe they don't speak or understand English well). All I know is, we desperately need a sticky about stock 26s on the x722 in the General Help sub-forum.

You misunderstand the idea. Only roms that are compatible "cross device" (meaning on x720/x722/x727) will be posted in the subforum. The rest will go into their dedicated subforum.

seriously I always wonder about the right answer even I read the original post of the difference, I am not very good in english maybe thats why I didn't fully undertand the main difference, but I guess the below:
Original android: after sometime the ROM is being stable so it goes to that forum
Android: still under development and not proved to be usable as stable version
NOTE: I am not sure at all, and please if any one knows the right answer to confirm it ... we are not all good english speakers
In all honesty, why does it matter ? It's not important. However...Original Android development is exactly that, a forum for stuff that is original. Whereas Android development has pretty much 'everything else' development-wise & stuff that is often based on/contains parts of someone else's work.
I still don't get why knowing this is so important to you ? Besides, if you'd read & followed the link you were given (which lead to other links and an eventual answer), you would have got the answer I just gave you.

I must be stupid but...
If we look at Original ROM index we've got Sammy, AOKP & AOSP based ROMs for both ICS & GB.
If we then take a look at Android ROM index we have Sammy, AOKP, AOSP & MIUI ROMs, also for ICS & GB.. and a new one for JB
Plus custom kernels in both sections aswell.
If by original we're talking about pure original as in not a modified/port of an already existing ROM then shouldn't it only be official Cyanogen, Kang, MIUI ROMS and maybe official Sammy releases in Original section?
Always Original Android best google experience
Has anyone seen or heard of any working nougat roms for the honor 5x
You know, Android 6/6.0.1 is stil in Beta? I think we should finised this version before we start with Android 7.
But if anyone will start with Android 7for Honor 5x i would love it
Once one is released I'm sure it will have it's own thread. I doubt anyone would be using a 7.0 ROM and keep it a secret from everyone.
I don't see the need for 7.0, I mean, it's just going to boot slower. Some people just like higher numbers I guess.
This thread should be in the Q&A forum. Maybe a mod can move it.

Hi All!
Is there a way to get lineage 14.x on le pro 3 Elite (X722)? I've been searching online, but all information seems to be related to X720 model, and there is basically nothing (or very little) regarding the X722... I was hoping to be able to root my device, Install lineage OS, and then un-root (due to using some corporate apps which don't allow devices to be rooted).
Please let me know in case you have some info. I will greatly appreciate your help!
Thanks!

Hey
As far as i know Leeco didn't released their open source code for x722 and that's why there is no custom roms. I'm a little bit confused because they shared their open source code for many models and i don't know why they didn't do that for x722 :C
tried booting this rom

I didn't tried any rom and at the moment i don't have this phone. I think different processor than in leeco x720/x727 make it useless to use the 720/727 rom for this device and can only lead to brick phone.
So why does TWRP for x720/x727 work flawlessly on x722?
Also lineage OS developer for lepro3 asked if anyone can give him log files from lineage boot on x722 then he can probably make it work. It seems the issue is not CPU (i guess it is same linux kernel and drivers anyway), but somehow changed boot sequence of the x722 then x720/x727, but i don't really understand this stuff.

I don't agree regarding the battery, but an sd slot I definitely miss... the phone itself is good, but it really sucks that we can't put lineage on it. I wish I did proper research before buying it, as I would probably go for a different one.

yea you are right . I saw x626 with 4/64gb on gearbeast for less than 140. But I cancelled the order because there is no ROM support. This model was not released outside of China so it has no google play store originally and no MTK model was made for market outside CN like the 1s thus flashing Indian/Russian or other international ROM is not a possibility.
did anyone update a lineage ROM on the Le Pro x722?

The problem is that the bootloader is locked and there is currently no root for the device... and as it seems like there will never be. one...
It would make this phone so much better if we had the chance to put lineage on it, as LeEco is going under (if not already), and there will be no future updates to the software, even though there are so many bugs... such as you can't change default browser, expand notifications, and so on....

yes, and the camera not auto-focusing when changing from a far to a closer focus or the contrary and you have to be tapping on the screen every time
so in the end maybe the lineage 14 for the x720 and x727 might work fine but the point is that the x722 has a locked door about bootloader and can't open and enter to work on it?

If you have American single sim model then you have to unlock bootloader first then try. I heard most roms are compatible but I am not sure about NFC status.

I will also be able to help once my phone arrives. Wondering what firmware i'll get it with (from BangGood).
When I scanned xda I saw official lineage for x72x so i assumed it was supported - the title is a bit misleading. Probably wouldn't have ordered it if I read the whole thread.
That said, I'm in it for the long haul now, and might actually be a good opportunity for me to actually give something back to the xda community (besides $).
Too many wrong infos in this topic.
- Bootloader is locked ONLY in 026s stock rom and it CAN be unlocked by flashing 001d dev release.
- You DON'T flash x720 roms to x722 since you will easily get a nice brick.
- You DON'T flash stock 026s through TWRP (especially from geekbuying vendor 020s rom with twrp)
- x722 has root in tora33 custom rom - this is a fresh stuff so check that thoroughly

Do you have a link for this ROM?
I've been thinking about the myriad of "old" gadgets that are alive thanks to the variety of ROMs available these days.
But a fact that intrigues me is why this device has very few ROMs available ... it really is something that draws the attention precisely because it has a good potential to receive them.
I have been around the G2 Mini forums since, pretty much, when the device was released. If you have a look at the oldest posts, some of them are mine.
In that time, I have seen many devs, at first trying to unlock the bootloader of the device, with Zaaap finally succeeding, by figuring out how the Russians at 4pda hacked the bootloader of the L90, and then he, and others, made some ROMs.
Since then, the only ROM dev that seems to still be working on our device is @mobiusm . Other that him, I still work on my kernel, with the help of @likeadracula . (However, he is very busy and I don't have any features to add, so there is little work done lately)
I don't know why there aren't any other devs, although, I believe it's because of the initial price (250-300 €) so no dev got it, and, even when the price dropped, it was already "old".
So, yeah, that's what I think.
P.S.: This is not a development thread, but a discussion. It belongs in G2 Mini General.
EDIT: Thread moved by mod.
For me, one developer who works on ROMs and one on Kernels, seems like a lot for a nearly 4 year old, non flagship device.
Also, having the newest Recovery & newest ROM which are worked out properly + a neat kernel with all the features you desire should not be taken for granted.
I am very grateful for all the development that has been done and will be done and I wouldn't know why I should get a new phone, 'cause this one works just fine, at least for me.
My surprise in relation to this fact is related that this device does not differ in anything from the L90 in terms of hardware, and the boot unblocking is the same, same procedures, so it is common to see roms for L90 and not for the G2m. This is something I'm surprised about. Obviously I am happy that there is still developer for this device, particularly the rom of my preference that is the LOS, did not abandon it, so 2..3 or more roms for it does not make as much difference since I just like to use the LOS on my devices, for the stability, performance and commitment of the team to all supported devices, however, is my view, other people have divergent thoughts.

Actually, precisely because of the similar hardware, it's very easy for the L90 ROMs to be ported to the G2M.
One the devs that have made ROMs for the g2m recently told me that he is using the L90 for initial testing and then uses the blobs for the g2m to make it work. (I don't actually know, but I think that the only problem with the L90 blobs is the camera or the WiFi, if anything)
In fact, it's so easy that anyone, with the most basic knowledge of Linux, can get it to work. I think. I haven't actually tried.
So, find a ROM of the L90 that you like and give it a shot. Just follow an online tutorial and you should be able to port it.
If you need any help, just let me know. Or anyone on the forum (though, some, myself included, are busy)

Nope. Only soft brick (a.k.a. bootloop)
Just restore the backup you (hopefully) made before flashing
Or, wipe /system /data and /cache and then flash a ROM for the g2m.
Still, no responsibility taken

I am attempting to build an AOSP ROM for S8 and I'm not sure what is required nor where to acquire said requirements
So far I am assuming that the Proprietary binary/blobs are kept in /system/vendor, but I'm not sure about where to acquire the device tree for S8
If I need anything else to compile AOSP for S8 please let me know what I need and where/how I can find it
Also PLEASE let me know how I can do this safely so that this won't hard brick or damage my hardware
Note: I DO NOT care about compatibility at this stage, such as camera not working, finger print reader broken, and so on, as long as the os itself works, after I confirm the os can work successfully I will attempt to fix the incompatibilities
