What is CAF kernel and why is it important
CAF is a project focusing on widespreading the use of msm chipsets, including a repository where qcom developers maintain code for various platforms, android and linux included
ok i got you! but why it is important for our device?
CAF kernel brings us upstream enhacements needed to make our device future proof for next android versions
you can find Code aurora releases here : https://www.codeaurora.org/xwiki/bin/QAEP/release
This is effort to keep armani updated wit Latest code aurora stuiff
Kernel for armani can be found here : https://github.com/rebelos/kernel_msm
For 3.4.x
Kernel Based on LA.BF.1.1.2-03110-8x26.0 with Camera Stack From LNX.LA.3.5.1-10610-8x26.0
why camera stack from KK tag [?]
For 3.10.40
Kernel is based of LA.BF.2.1
Answer is sinple to make it compatible with our JB kernel drivers
Current Status
- Most of stuff i can test is Working
Patches and sugesstions are welcome

Awesome Work @rebelos and Armani Devs .
Speechless .
Hell yeah !
LA.BF.1.1.2-03110-8x26.0 - True Lollipop Kernel .
God Bless You Guys !!
Wait a minute, just a little offtopic question if you guys dont mind.
>> https://github.com/SlimRoms/kernel_xiaomi_armani
Does this mean that we are getting official SlimRom with this kernel? If yes than this will be awesome! Thanks guys for your hard work.
source update
1. Kernel now Shifted to https://github.com/rebelos/kernel_msm under Branch = armani/master-3.4 Branch
2. Fixed a bug with AutoFocus on Previous Downgrade
3. Suspicous Size increase is Fixed Thanks to @thewisenerd and @jsevi83
Kernel Bump : msm-3.10
The code for msm-3.10 [Linux version = 3.10.40] has been pushed https://github.com/rebelos/kernel_msm-3.10
kernel is based off " LA.BF.2.1_RB1.05.00.00.173.012" msm8084
Keeping in mind this is *highly Experimental*
and i'd consider it unusable for now!

So far after looking at the Nexus binaries page, and the sources for device trees, and kernel repositories found here Google hasn't updated it yet. I imagine they will shortly as more devices are shipped to people.
Don't think so. Once they do it should show up here: https://android.googlesource.com/

Ah ok makes sense. Can't wait for development to start!
SlimRoms is a custom android operating system. The main goal is to offer users a slimmed down but still feature rich alternative to other android operating systems.
The entire SlimTeam work together to bring you this tailor-made beauty straight from Android Open Source Project (AOSP) source code.
All of the sources can be publicly viewed through GitHub and you can stop by the public Gerrit to submit patches of any type.
Important links:
slimroms.org - The official webpage where you find everything you need to know about SlimRoms.
Downloads - Download the rom for S6 from here
Kernel Source - The source of your device's kernel.

No offense but you're the 3rd one to release a rom that has the exact same source as the original CM13 thread, and all others have been shutted down. You should invest your time helping the main branch fixing their stuff instead of dividing everybody. Releasing a ROM that is exactly the same with a different name is a total lack of respect to those who really worked hard to make this happen, plus your sources are not even public :/

I have no sources. I have published the link to the kernel source. Every Rom is based off CM tree and it is not the same. Its SLIM.

I'm pretty sure it's an XDA rule to publish the source of every rom/kernel. Otherwise it could contain malware/keylogger or could be fake. I took a look at SLIM's github and i didn't see anything related to the S6.
Dude you dont get it. According to XDA you should publish a source for the kernel and I did. Go ahead with the link I posted and it will direct you to the kernel source. It is not necessary that the kernel should belong to Slim.
I see no official source on your GitHub. Is this just a rebrand of CM 13 for S6?
Nevermind keep it coming

Dude, I used Slim rom sources and this device kernel and vendor tree and built the rom. There is no need for sources in my github. And Slim and CM are different. I am not just rebranding. I am building this from source.

It's like steeling the bigmac sauce's receipe to make your own burger restaurant, but saying that you use a different bread.
Omg whats the issue with you guys? I gave credit for the developers, linked to the kernel tree of the actual developer and now what is that you people need?

Having a second ROM with same issues doesn't help at all. Why wouldn't you wait for it to be stable instead of releasing another alpha rom?

You could have pointed that out in the first post itself rather than us spamming this thread. I will remove the download link and keep this thread closed for now.

The only source required to be posted by GPLv2 and XDA requirements is kernel source. Also Slim and CM both have posted open permissions to build.
New build up. See OP for download link.

I guess its usable. But a different build for S6 Edge is in the works.
Doesnt Boot on my 920f latest recovery clean install with and without gapps. Never finnishing Boot animation.
Since the Xperia M aka nicki is no longer maintained I decided to start my own build and I thought I share it with the community.
Full Disclosure: I am not a developer. If there are bugs in any build, I cannot solve them. So always do a backup before flashing.
Also if you do not know how to flash: leave it be. I will not help with flashing problems.
I will try to keep it up-to-date.
You can download it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7J1cVOauuana0l0NG1GWmE1aWc/view?usp=sharing
Android: 7.1.2
Security Patches: May 2017

Thank you bro for sharing and keeping the device alive ?
Btw you should consider posting this in android development forum so that people know abt it

I intentionally posted not in the development section, since I am not developing but only building.

Bro you shouldn't post it in original development but you can post it in Android development as you are building the rom for the device and many of the people port roms they also don't develop nor fix bugs but post it in Android development as they are building the rom for the device
sir @Komapatient , can you please share the source kernel or ROM?

Hi,
I don't understand your request. I pulled the sources from LinOS Git. There is nothing done on the source.

So basically you're keeping the ROM updated with latest changes from lineage OS source code , I mean bug fixes and security patches etc.

Yes. As a courtesy to the people who cannot compile their own ROM and to give s.th. back to the community who helped me a lot of times.
Hi @Komapatient,
Glad to see you once again around here, think we last talked when you were using the Xperia V on LineageOS.
Happy to see nicki is not fully dead and that its users can benefit from newer builds.
However there's a big concern here, I pushed the Nicki official removal for two important reasons :
- Device sources are no longer updated. If there's no real issue it's fine, but might appear.
> Issues like autobrightness flashing in a weird way upon device wake/unlock is among the biggest issue fixed / wip since the changes stopped.
> Checked in my huashan sources to find common relevant things for nicki, I just pushed an overlay cleanup and fix for MMS non-Data use.
- Kernel sources are highly outdated. To put this in a easy way, we can judge the security status
> to be around December 2016 and February 2017. Therefore the security version you share here is only the ROM sources,
> though a good portion of the security patches are actually to be worked upon for each kernel.
You can find our internal CVEs vulnerabilities tracker concerning the nicki 8x27 kernel here : https://cve.lineageos.org/android_kernel_sony_msm8x27
Someone should at some point stand up and start looking at them one by one,
fixing the ones related to the kernel version by cherry-picking, testing then pushing to gerrit.
You can take my sony_msm8960t kernel as reference if you wish, only the most recent CVEs are a work in progress,
and you should therefore easily see which CVEs concern your 3.4 kernel and find the commits in my history.
I'd gladly merge commits uploaded to gerrit if they are valid and properly authored / clean.
Hope this makes the current status of Nicki a bit more clear.
Bye.
@AdrianDC
Thank you for your clarification. The kernel sources are indeed a bummer, but as my coding skills are below zero. Sadly I am not able to help here out.

Trying to "steal" my commits from sony_msm8960t would be a good start,
you can also check the commits tags on Gerrit to see the CVE 20xx-xxxx related numbers
when the information was set as topic, helps clearing the list too.
Since the work is already done on our side, it shouldn't be a giant work to do,
and would be a good place to start with + bring back some security updates to the device.
Please try to update this rom
