Absolutely Not... The 2 devices have completely different hardware and are not compatible with each other. If you're not careful, you will end up bricking the S8 Plus.
If you would like to obtain some member guidance, regarding if/what can be ported to the S8 Plus , your best bet is to post this question within the following Q&A thread that's specific to the Galaxy S8 Plus.

Good Luck!

[REQUEST] Treble Support

Hello All,
So this thread is dedicated to bringing treble to our note 8! The Galaxy S9 has received treble support and it's disappointing to not see it here.
What is treble?
It's basically a method of partitioning the system by separating the drivers (vendor) and the actual system. This allows for flashing of GSIs and according to current results from the S9 EVERYTHING WORKS without a hitch.
So please developers bring this to our devices and let us enjoy bugless AOSP!

So you do realize that S9 came with treble from the factory right? The only way to bring treble to the n8 is via repartitioning the device and it can be fairly risky if you dont know what you are doing. I suggest you read some device threads that users have partitioned to treble and not a device that comes with it from the factory

To be honest note 8 just need kenrel supporting treble . We got twrp supporting treble but no kernel . There are no devs who really care about note 8 so I wouldn't expect much . But it's possible to port it
I dont think it ever will come the note 9 just got root i think if im not wrong according to to majisk amd its already partitioned for treble so basically the note 8 is toast once the father of root decided to leave thats it.!! It happened to alot of snapdragon samsungs this one will always stay on 7.1.1 with root hope this helps. Ive planned to jump in november
On my side, i don t understand why it s not possible for the note 8 when one plus 3, oneplus 5 and galaxy note 3 are in the treble update list (i ve read this list on xda). I just think sammy doesn t want to give treble for note 8 to force peoples to jump for the note 9 which is not attractive for me because the new spen features are gadget for me and the battery life will be the same (yes the spen blutooth explain a bigger battery). I think i will wait for the note 10 or the oneplus 6t (maybe it will feature a pen lol). The time will say.

I m sorry. After reading your comment, i v searched for the link and realized that i make a mistake. You re right. The note 3 is listed to receive android pie and no treble. As we know that all of the devices wich have oreo out of the box will automatically have treble and reading that some oneplus old devices will get treble, and seeing note 3 will receive android 9, i did a very speed conclusion that the note 3 will receive project treble. It s my mistake and i apologize for that. Really sorry.

No worries at all! I was just curious . Thank you for following up and confirming!
i dont know if that the same i have huawe mate 8 and i cant flash oreo rom over nougat becoz partion so when i debrand it and got oreo via ota im able to flash oreo rom and treble what i want to say oreo partions allows treble dunno about note 8! maybe?
would love to see treble for the note 8. the dev love will eventually come to the note 8 as well, it is a really popular phone and over the next year or so most "regular" users will upgrade again and the moding community ill pick up on cheap, second hand note 8's as it is an excellent phone. really wish there was an AOSP rom with absolutely no samsung bull****, even if I would have to give up a lot of features - treble would make that possible.

PS, yes, it works for the regular Pixel 3 (blueline)

Note 10 plus google camera exynos - Help?

Hi
Please help!
Cannot find a link for the Note 10+ exynos gcam? Please help
There may not be one. Google Camera is only meant for Pixel phones; any other versions are ported for specific phones by various developers and it's possible nobody has done one for a particular phone.

Dolby Vision Mod

Hi guys,
Do you think we will be able to port across from the 2019 shield to the 2017 version Dolby Vision support ?
Thanks
You need to post this in the Q&A not development section.
There are quite a few posts already referencing DV availability on older platforms and the possibilities of porting. Its just a matter of time.

realme 7 pro roms

will there be a pixel experience rom for realme 7 pro users?
There's already a similar ROM, Pixel Plus UI, however, if you insist, the device is still young for development. Seeing the device forum, anyone can predict a bright development for this device. Just be patient.
