Treble does work. It works on some shitty MTK allview phone as well that has Android 8.0 and has Treble.
Well yeah. Right now there's basically 2 roms. One for devices with just one partition and one for devices with an A/B partition system.
And you can just flash one and it will work. No need for hundreds of device-specific roms.
But Sup Forums was throwing a shitfit that it's just placebo shit.
Less work for developers means we can use custom roms on mediatek devices. I am excited for that. Cheaper devices!
It makes no sense to buy phones with no Treble support today. Only if the OEM does shit to support that. Currently only a handful of devices have Treble support but more and more will have them because it's a requirement if you want to sell devices with Oreo and up. Let's see how many chink phones with MTK SoCs will stick to Nougat...
Cubot X18 Plus will have treble a well.
Iris scanner doesn't work because native android currently has no support
Iris scanner is a gimmick anyway.
It's coming in P according to the commits.
What is Project Treble
A new Android feature that OEMs are forced to implement (otherwise they won't get access to the play store).
Basically there's a new vendor partition where they put all the necessary driver blobs and such, and it makes porting a device to AOSP a breeze.
You can create a single rom that will work on any device that has Project Treble (any device that ships with 8.0).
Does this mean we'll get updates and security patches every year instead of being forced to buy new phones or using Nexus/Pixel
Probably only if you use AOSP
No, because the manufacturers can still be a bunch of faggots and never release newer firmwares. However, it WILL make it easier for them and custom ROM makers to make them.
But do all of the phone functions work without the samsung shitware?
The iris scanner doesn't work as it's a standard android feature. That's about it. I think even the heartrate monitor works.
assuming no firmware bugs, probably.
I'm not understanding, it says it's not possible on Snapdragon phones because it needs to be unlocked. I have a unlocked us Snapdragon phone?
>tfw no oreo on s7
>tfw no treble ever ever because jewsung
REEEEEEEEE
The bootloader is locked on Snapdragon phones. The bootloader is unlocked by default on european Exynos phones
This pic semi-related..
what about 960fps?
Project Treble is still shit. Each device still has device specific bugs that need to be fixed. You can't install a generic system image and expect everything to work like how retards (OP) portray it. So you won't fulfill your dream of buying chink shit and getting instant ROM support without doing work until Treble improves.
Doesn't matter. Most important features already work with the generic system image. Rest can be fixed. You don't need the same generic image for all devices. You can always compile AOSP with the changes you want with the fixes for stuff that's broken.
>Rest can be fixed.
not if the manufacturer is a fucking mongoloid, as they all are, and won't release code for their shitty functions. this has always been the fucking case
>use our bloat or fuck off
As the article points out, 8.1 isn't even bootable on the S9. Nondevs still need to buy phones popular with devs. Nothing really changes for 99% of people because Treble is so underdeveloped.
I don't care about the S9. Cheaper devices please.
Will these aosp roms support dex, linux on galaxy and include original camera blobs?
But it's not locked, i can load roms
snapdragon when
I should've waited instead of upgrading my s5 to the note8 a month ago, guess I'm stuck with debloated samsung ROMs for the next 3+ years.

Wait fuschia
