An Easy Method To Check If Your Smartphone Supports Project Treble

Due to this separation, the Android OS framework now guarantees backward compatibility with the vendor implementation up to 3 versions apart from GSI (Generic System Image) support from AOSP sources. While Google made it compulsory for the OEMs to release Android devices with the new Android OS version must have vendor implementations compatible with GSIs.

That means it reduces the risk of getting your Android device bricked easily while flashing any custom firmware which may happen due to several unfortunate reasons. Additionally, OEMs will now start implementing more & more modifications to the framework. Whereas the Project Treble architecture also allows users to easily or seamlessly install the same OS framework code across multiple different devices (should be hardware compatible).

It’s also worth mentioning that due to the Project Treble support and a deep collaboration of Google with Qualcomm, all-new Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset devices will easily take the advantage to support four Android OS versions and 4 years of security updates consistently. To recall, we’ve already seen the same on Google Pixel devices, a wide range of Samsung Galaxy devices, and recently Xiaomi devices too.

An Easy Method To Check If Your Smartphone Supports Project Treble

If your device is running the Android 8.0 Oreo or higher version then your device supports the Project Treble feature out of the box. However, if your device doesn’t support Project Treble for any reason, you can manually flash Treble compatible custom firmware quite easily. So, how do you check the Project Treble compatibility on your Android device? Let’s find out.

• Open the Google Play Store application on your handset.
• Search for Project Treble and open the ‘Project Check – Treble Compatibility Checking App’ preview page. [Click on the link to directly go to the app preview page]

• Once you’re on the app preview page, just tap on ‘Install’.
• Let the app be installed on your device.
• Once done, tap on ‘Open’ from the Play Store page.

• The app will instantly tell you whether your device supports Project Treble or not.

Additionally, it’ll let you know whether your device supports Seamless System Updates or not. Whereas you’ll know the CPU architecture of your device as well as whether it supports System-as-root or not.

It’s quite simple as that. Doesn’t require any kind of additional access or process whatsoever.
