### What is Treble? ###
https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2017/05/here-comes-treble-modular-base-for.html?m=1
I'll keep the technical details about treble away from this thread as it has been covered by xda already.
If you want to know more about that visit here : https://source.android.com/devices/architecture/
Treble is everywhere, so why shouldn't x2 join it?
I'm proud to announce that Le Max2 will now fully support project treble and you can flash Generic System Images (GSI) and even Android P. Exciting right ?
You just need to follow the instructions mentioned and you're good to go.
## How we did it? ##
You might be wondering how I managed to get treble support...
NO, I didn't repartition the phone so you shouldn't worry about bricking the phone unless the directions were not followed properly.
There is an empty and unformatted partition in the phone called "last_parti" with a size of <589mb> and I converted that to our vendor partition, similar to how OnePlus devices were able to achieve teble support without the need to repartition.
You may doubt that that you will still be able to flash stock eui rom, but yes u can and we have tested it. If you encounter any error no 7 during eui flashing? Please switch to a non-treble build of TWRP or just delete block checking in update-script.
If you have any difficulties? You may join our telegram group for help :

Let's trebelize your x2 shall we?
**Important: Instructions are absolutly clear, so please carefully follow the steps as written below. I shall not be held responsible for any bricked devices. You do this on your own risk.
New method :
1) Flash the Treble supported TWRP. Again there are multiple ways to flash TWRP like
Use TWRP and flash the new recovery as an image in the recovery partition.
Use fastboot on the computer to flash the recovery image.
If you have root access then you can use an app like Flashify to flash the recovery.
2) Reboot to recovery to ensure the treble version is launched.
3) In the "Advanced" menu please click and swipe on "Treblelize"
4) Try to wipe vendor partition. If Treblelize worked? It should wipe without errors.
Optionally, you can also try to mount Vendor partition to see if it mounts without errors too.
4) After completing 1-4 your device will have vendor partition but it won't be ready to flash GSIs. For being able to do it goto step
5) Wipe system, cache, dalvik cache and data.
6) Flash the AEX Treble ROM which you downloaded earlier.

2) Reboot to recovery once flashed. (Even if u flashed through twrp ,you should reboot to recovery again)
3) Flash the partition creator zip now. After flashing it it might show an error about cannot mount /vendor, ignore it and go on to
the next step.
4) Click wipe on TWRP homepage, select vendor and uncheck all other partitions and swipe to wipe. Nice you have successfully
created vendor partition.
optional. You can check if you are able to mount /vendor partition from the recovery.
5) After completing 1-4 your device will have vendor partition but it won't be ready to flash GSIs. For being able to do it goto step
6) Wipe system, cache, dalvik cache and data.
7) Flash the AEX Treble ROM which you downloaded earlier.
Bingo! You have successfully trebelized your x2!
Time for some DO NOTs
1) NEVER wipe /vendor. If you do that your device won't work with any GSI. (u should wipe vendor only if u flash non treble rom )In case you accidentally wiped it you can flash AEX Treble rom to get it back. I might provide a vendor.img but don't think like doing it right now.
2) NEVER install A/B GSIs. Our device is treble enabled but doesn't have an A/B partition structure. Le Max2 support A only GSIs.
Instructions for flashing GSI of any Rom
1) Download a GSI from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development
2) If it is in a zip archive, then please unpack it.
3) You can find instructions here : https://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/
and reboot

Congratulations! Thanks everyone to work in this project!..

---

Great work guys.

---

good!

---

Wow! Impressive stuff guys! How is the P GSI? Working well?

---

****! All of you are incredible, thanks a mil for this hard work.

---

I have no words
Congrats to all devs involved

---

I am unable to understand anything. So dumb.

---

Pro3 users come to congratulate. How do I admire it! With the same CPU, zl1 can't use Android P.

---

It's a new way of life Thank you all.

---

This really works nice, and very easy process,. I am running the AEX treble ROM at the moment, but tried the P gsi for a while - it booted up OK and runs, looks nice, but has a message on boot saying there is an error with the device, and has a notification that the P system is updating that never seems to complete and so you can't log in to google account or complete phone set up.

Ahh. Then it's typical GSI behaviour. Maybe a final version will be more stable.

Thanks to all of the developers for bringing the much awaited treble support in our device.

Should have noticed that link earlier when i first tried. many thanks!
just wanted to add i got FC while restoring from the cloud on my google account, i think it was called data transfer tool, i had click on the 'i' to bring up the service/app and then give it storage permissions to continue. after that everything back and even my apps are now updating from the play store.:good:
edit 2: also for those needing usb connectivity after for whatever reason you can enable by going to developer options and changing default usb configuration to file transfer. learning do and donts as i go here as well lol
