Can P20 share the same ROM with P20 pro? - Huawei P20 Themes, Apps, and Mods

What the hack , why there isn't any ROM for P20, but just for P20 pro?
Does these two device share the same ROM?
Thanks in advance.

As far as i was told, any GSI rom (treble rom) is suppsoed to work on any phone that supports treble. I did a treble check on my phone and its supposed to support slot a treble roms but im yet to see one boot. Neither oreo or pie roms will boot on this phone. It seems to take the flash in fastboot but just bootloops a bit until it ends up back in recovery.

Have you tried flashing the rom for P20 pro on P20? I would like to have a try but just worried the possibility of bricking the device.

I didn't see too many difference that would affect the system running except camera, memory and phisical dimension, why the rom can't apply to P20?

Is there any news? I would like to use LineageOS for the P20. : / There are simply no Custom Roms for the mobile.

Flashing MIUI rom via TWRP without bricking

Hi Guys,
Got my Mi4c unlocked and rooted running cm14 however, when I try and flash an MIUI 8 rom via TWRP the device goes into a bootloop.
I am new to Xiamoi devices (Nexus user) am I missing something? Is there a patch to flash after a rom to prevent bricking?
I'd really like to try MIUI again but don't want to go through the hassle of unbricking my device and reflashing/rooting it.
Many thanks!
p.s Does MIUI 8/CM14 support f2fs?
You have to flash Developer version of the rom which is not out yet. The otherwise-rom package will always lock your bootloader and wont let u access the recovery after (thats why bootloop). CM14 supports F2FS, MIUI8 is still upon the old ext4.
I have the same brick as yours for now and I'm downloading the old 6.12.8 developer version bootloader flashable file to get out of this mess. MIUI is nothing fascinating and they break something with every new update. I'll go back to MOKEE until Android 7 gets stable enough.

Thanks for your reply. That surprises me that there still isn't an miui 8 developer ROM out yet for this device. Probably shall never come in that case.
Good to hear that f2fs is supported by cm14 though. Will certainly be running this once I receive my new cases to replace the girly pink cover my mi4c currently houses

I tried open kirin rros but for some reason network speed is very unstable for me. Network speeds go up and down if that makes since. Maybe I did something wrong

Trying my 1st custom ROM

Any recommendation on which ROM should i use for my 1st custom ROM? Is the pixel experience any good? i mean is there any major issues about this ROM? Is it also safe to flash it on my current MIUI version whihc is MIUI 10.2.2.0 PDGMIXM its the global version. I already unlocked my bootloader and currently searching for tutorials on how to install TWRP and which one should I install in this device. Many thanks in advance if anyone responds on this post.

It depends on how many costumizations you prefer. LineageOS and Pixel Experience do not have many extra features, while e.g. RR, Arrow and Havoc do. I experienced very few bugs in PE and LOS, but I haven't tried other custom roms. LOS has very clear installation instructions, which are also applicable to most other custom roms: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/polaris/install
We have an official TWRP version; you can find the instructions and download link on https://twrp.me.
Thanks
I just want to try a new look on my phone. Ill install those roms soon, is it ok to back up this current miui im using if i dont like the rom i installed right?
Yes, but some users (including me) reported failures of restoring full rom backups. So make sure you also use some alternative backup (e.g. the Migrate app) and save your backup files on an external device.
Use a full backup with TWRP. It worked for me every time. However there is a bug with phone protection (unlock code or fingerprint) - and you have to delete it manually in TWRP file manager.
But everything works fine.

Pretty much easier is removing any PIN or fingerprint authorization before doing the backup.

Not sure I get you. My apologies. Removing any PIN, fingerprint authorization before doing twrp backup is inevitable unless you want to modify your backup file the way somebody above described.

btw, does unlocking the bootloader affects my phone from getting OTA? im still using the stock rom now MIUI 10.2.2.0 PDGMIXM.

You can still receive OTA updates on the unlocked bootloader as long as you are using official Mi rom and you do not have twrp installed. TWRP may break OTA updates. At best case an OTA will just replace your twrp with stock recovery. Root also should not affect OTA updates. So no problem getting ota even if bootloader is unlocked as far as I am aware of

Going from AOSP to MIUI based Roms, you must Format Data, not just Wipe it. Same goes for reverse

If there is another version than CN
No need for Twrp, which will only flash a recovery rom.
Install rom:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/flash-tool-guide-use-xiaomi-flash-tool.4262425/
Does not relock the bootloader(brick).
With a stock rom the play store will not be certified.

The recovery rom is used for an update or troubleshooting and only contains the imgs needed to start the phone, while the fastboot rom contains all the imgs, hence the different size.
But I advise you to install a Xiaomi Eu rom which will have the play store certified without root and more functions than the stocks.
If you flash a stock ROM, you will need to root and use Magisk hide to have the play store certified and use banking apps for example.

It's mainly thanks to Xiaomi Eu ROMs because stocks are really limited.
