Nobody takes the interest in development of Vivo phones but the thing is there are not offer for new user who seeks then there are certain form of Android development for their phones and unfortunately none of the developers interest in development of Vivo phone phones coming out like Vivo X 21 Vivo v9 which features Snapdragon processors same as the the xiaomi phones but still Google recognise is Vivo and Oppo brand as their first day developer preview units for Android P beta they give this company opportunity to have Android P beta on their phones considering them larger brand then Samsung and LG but still none of the developers are interested in development of Vivo and Oppo phones.

Hi Dev.
I have used all my phones which have mediatek processor and that phones development is started immediate after their release .
now the thing is when i was using mediatek processor phone people said that snapdragon have more development than mediatek now nearly 1 month passed for zenfone 2 laser to release there is no sign for development nor root method so in my openion there is no limit for development even its mediatek or snapdragon there should be smart and well knowledge dev needed to develop a rom
Hello to all my beloved developers of XDA. I am here with my request to please get a general procedure of porting lineage OS ROM for Snapdragon 210 processor installed on them it will be of great help and Snapdragon 210 is one of the most reliable and cheapest LTE processor that has created a storm in the below 5K market like India, Bangladesh, Argentina, etc.
Honestly speaking I own a l y f flame 8 model having Snapdragon 210 and lollipop install on board point so I request if somebody has developed anything like TWRP recovery for this model is also appreciated to submit his ideas or developed files in this thread
So is there anyone looking at the post interested to develop a ROM for our device, the suggestions are also welcomed
Since the commencement of this forum on XDA it is likely to see that the newer devices are the devices which are lacking a very good and good user base and having trouble time to find out the right developer for it but Snapdragon 210 is not a problem that needs to be explained it when you, as it is very popular chipset. Still I am surprised to see that even after so many days of opening the form I am not getting a single response from the people on XDA I am very disappointed about it
Same 2 me i have a lyf flame 8
Me also I have also lyf flame 8
Hello, we are drvsbsm and she is Sarah we are visitors of the Axon 7 Mini Community we have endured endless setbacks for many months trying to at least get our Axon 7 Mini’s rooted, we would love to have what you have been able to do but ZTE will not help us, they say they are thinking about letting us unlock our bootloaders, but we cannot trust them as they have been saying this for months and that is why I have come here with a question from our forum members to ask for anyone with experience to help us with the Axon 7 Mini we would be very grateful. We don’t believe ZTE because they won’t even give us any help in our discoveries. We would enjoy just to have root access and if our Bootloader could become unlockable we could finally feel like our device is finally ours. We have put in many months of work at the forums and we wish it would have meant something more, we do not have the developers with the experience that you have with the Axon 7. I don't usually do this as you can see by my post count and my thanks for helping others I usually help other people when they are in need, but this time we as your XDA Brothers are in need. The only ZTE device that ZTE has let us unlock the bootloader was the Axon 7, if we can’t get them to continue to let us unlock future ZTE devices we most likely won’t get to again, hopefully we can convince them now that they are better off with an open community, they can ask OnePlus about that. Ask yourself why would they not let us unlock the bootloader on the Axon 7 Mini, I can’t figure that out especially when they let you unlock the Axon 7. The Axon 7 Mini is an incredible device that has a lot of untapped potential.
Very few people know about this but over a year ago I owned the Original “ZTE Axon Pro” they also then had another device called the “ZTE Axon” it was their non-pro version and they would not let us root or unlock that device either it was basically the same as the Axon 7 and the Axon 7 Mini but they would not help the regular or the pro version. That phone was $400 and the regular Axon was $300 the “ZTE Axon Pro” was their flagship device last year I had one for 6 months, it had a Snapdragon 810 in it and the battery life was terrible. So, I sold it for $180.
I’m pretty sure that ZTE won’t help us Axon 7 Mini users to unlock or root our devices. So, we at the Axon 7 Mini forums are asking for your help maybe with your developers and experience you will be the one who unlocks the code we have been trying so hard to do. I came here because I thought that we were the XDA community and our Developers could do whatever we wanted if we stuck together and tried hard enough.
Hopefully you will help us in anyway that you can. I heard there was a ZTE forum, I will visit there next maybe someone could spread the word for us Axon 7 mini friends, I would appreciate it a lot. thank you. If anyone can do this they would be a hero in our minds, if not the Axon 7 Mini will have a very short life cycle and ZTE are not at all innocent. I will continue to do what I can, I may visit this ZTE forum to speak on our behalf, I won’t even say the word ZTE anymore its AXON 7 and Axon 7 Mini to me from now on, but I'm also in the middle of learning to root and rom my Oneplus 3T, but I will not give up on the Axon 7 Mini just yet, even though it has been 6 months of no forward progress.
We need the Axon 7 Developers if they think they are up for the challenge if they could at least get our devices rooted, or would that be too hard for them also? Please Ask the Axon Developers in this Forum to please help in the spirit that XDA-Developers has become such a special place for everyone who has a problem with their phones to help and to get help.
Find us here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7-mini Please come anyone is invited hopefully a really good developer will find his way over to us and our forums, that would be great could you imagine what they could do with our phone they would be the king of our community if they got it rooted and the bootloader unlocked. I admit they would have to be pretty good of a developer because we had our own few good developers looking at the Axon 7 Mini for months and they didn’t come up with anything maybe we should not think that anyone can do this.
Here are the specs to our Axon-7-Mini if anyone here are familiar I’m going to show them.
The Specs of The - ZTE Axon 7 Mini
The ZTE Axon 7 Mini was announced in September 2016. It is an entry level version of ZTE's 2016 flagship Axon 7. It features a 5.2" 1080p AMOLED display, Qualcomm Octa-Core Snapdragon 617 chipset, 3GB RAM and 32GB of UFS 2.0 internal storage. The rear camera has a 16MP sensor with f/1.9 aperture and phase detection autofocus, while the front has an 8MP sensor and f/2.2 aperture. The ZTE Axon 7 Mini is powered by a 2705mAh battery with Quick Charge 2.0, and comes with a USB Type-C port.
It is basically the same as your phone but of course it is a Mini version it is really nice but it is missing one very important thing, Root Privileges and an Unlocked Bootloader. Developers of these forums if you wish for a challenge and you are not busy and you think you can possibly do the job please have a try at it whenever you are ready. Do you think it is that they don’t have the phone to work on we would have to get a very well respected developer a phone to work on but I think we could do that? Please Axon 7 forum members Please come see us. https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7-mini
Biggest drawback of Vivo mobile devices are its lack of system (Android and Funtouch bug fixes) and security updates OTA delivery compare to other brands (Realme, MI, Samsung,..)
Is there anything we can do to **PUSH** Vivo to make them accountable to provide better and faster software updates????
Due to this Vivo devices gets out dated too soon in market... And you end up looking for another brand device.
Unfortunately, Vivo does not realise this hampers there own brand value.
Thia was one of the biggest reason I moved away / refrain buying Huawei and specially Lenovo, LG, Motorola phones as all of them had very poor after sale software update Frequency..

I did some more research and seems Funtouch has improved a lot in terms of experience and ease of usage. Still require some quirks clean-up
However, X50 and X50 pro updates were very slow
So, if you buy Vivo's latest and greatest phone running on Funtouch or Android 11 there is no guarantee you will get Android 12 ( or on time). I couldn't find, on Vivo official site update release plan list anywhere.
Also what is the story of Origin OS ?? How Vivo's development team focusing on improving Funtouch or Origin OS??
