Hello,

I would also like the activation of the MultiUser feature. Its only a simple and small change. Worked great on BV6000.
Why it is deactivated per default? Its a great feature for Multi-SIM devices.

there are any news?

Is there a way to build a stock android 'SystemUI.apk' für BV8000pro?

I'm running alternative ROM + root and just added two lines to build.prop:
fw.show_multiuserui=1
fw.max_users=3

I believe Blackview can do this too for us in the next ROM release

Hello, yes thats no problem but u cant switch between users, because of the missing User switch button in the Statusbar/Quicksettings Menu.

All we need is a SystemUI.apk with a stock android Statusbar/Quicksettings Menu.

Here is a example of BV6000 with Android 7:
