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/

Kernel Source for Google Nexus S Released
December 15, 2010 By: ElCondor
Android development for the Google Nexus S has now begun. The kernel source – originally made available upon the official phone release – has already been released by Brian Swetland, an Android kernel developer. This source code can be further investigated and explored by developers. Ultimately, this will lead to achieving development milestones much earlier than usual. One example is to root the phone just a few hours or days after it gets released.

Thank you Brian !
XDA member supercurio created a thread in the Nexus S forums. Make sure to check it out to follow the discussion, or continue directly to the developer kernel site.
yeah.. it's out:

i wonder why it takes to long to get a first build
Probably its just a matter of mili seconds before one pops up Cant wait >.<

Long like more than half a day? Lol.
Don't you need the source for the rest of the OS as well to build a full system?
The source is available now.

Here you can see whats going on with the CyanogenMod devs.
The question will soon become 'do I root and flash a custom Gingerbread rom... or wait to see if HTC release one...'

root anyway the custom roms are far superior
Theres a test build of Gingerbread in the oxygen thread
I'm unable to find it. Could you post a link?

Tempted, even if I just had a rooted stock and remove some of the junk that is in the rom's...
If you're happy with the stock ROM, don't bother. You'll end up flashing ROMs all the time, always trying the newest or different ones - which is fun for sure, but not really necessary and often quite frustrating.
Can't wait to boot 2.3 on my Desire!

It's just a themed version I think.
There is a new snapshot on CM website. Anyone know what it is about?

its the stable build for CM12.1?
*google said* Snapshots (M builds) are builds done roughly once a month that has had some testing to make sure things are mostly working and released to the public. These are the first builds that allow official bug reports on the project manager site, https://jira.cyanogenmod.org.

Basiclly i anwsered the question. it is just a stable point in the build. Nothing more, nothing less. So no changes other then stability.
Hi all,
I've created an issue on Motorola's kernel-msm repo that is a request for them to release the kernel sources for the G 5 Plus (Potter).
The post is here - https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/issues/104
Please feel free to reply with similar requests so as to get Motorola moving on a proper GPL source release.

:good:
The sources are already out....
Oh really? My bad... Can I just pull from that kernel-msm repo mentioned in the original post? Or is there a different repo just for Potter?
It looks like the source release for NPN25.137-15 is tagged here:
https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/tree/MMI-NPN25.137-15/
It's a bit older than the version shipped with my phone but it could work. I'm going to see if I can compile it later.

Why'd you edit your post? I took a look at Alberto's repo and it looks like it would be compatible with our phones.
Seemed like a decent course of action to take. Did you try it yourself? Did it work? Don't just provide no reason, let's get hacking...

Man yes let me mention the guy who successfully able to build with Alberto's sources. He is @i.snehal.kiran.
He has done this to compile but unfortunately for some reason he doesn't able to get the device to test. His msg is below
basically i have taken addison device tree ...just change the kernel path and defconfig name in boradconfig.mk ..makes it build boot.img
the source provided by motorola on github is full of errors..so use alberto's kernel for addison till you get official kernel from moto
https://github.com/Alberto97/android_kernel_motorola_msm8953
I edited the post bcz I thought u want to work with custom kernel for stock rom. And I thought this might not be useful.

So what happened next? Did you tried something?
Edit:- btw one of the guy has replied positively on issue. :Good: I think we'll have a separate source soon.

I got as far as getting the LineageOS sources pulled for 14.1, had to do it twice since it was too big for my home directory so I had to create a new volume and run repo sync again. Took forever, but at least I have the OS sources downloaded. Now we're at the point of getting that kernel and setting up a device configuration for our device. Once we get that, then I can see if we can build and flash.

Cool. Good work man. I'm in for testing.
Kernel sources are up

Does official lineage os exist for munch? Or at least unofficial but maintained build?
I don't think so. We must wait.
If you don't mind to build it your self, you could use the source from ArrowOS which maintained by madmax7896(thanks madmax!!!).
I've build lineage19.1 (20.0 is running) with some mods but I lack of ability to maintain/improve the ROM. So just build it and use it for fun.
We get official in next month.

Good enough for me. I've got the bootloader unlocked and might just wait until Lineage goes official before flashing anything.
Unless anyone else is finding any of the currently avilable roms stable enough for daily driver?
Any news?

Does anyone here have reason to assume that development on LineageOS for this device is happening at the moment?

The Github project that is referred to by alfZKI contains kernels for various devices like lmi or alioth but not munch.
There is a common kernel repository but there don't seem to be many much munch-related commits - but that could be alright.
I've scrolled through the Telegram group https://t.me/PocoF4updates and it seems like SebaUbuntu is the central figure to make the LineageOS bringup happen.
But judging on what he had to say in 17 July (https://t.me/s/SebaUbuntuBlog?) it looks to me like he had little interest in that. His release schedule for LOS20 (17 October) doesn't contain munch either.
But I've probably looked in the wrong direction.
Can you shed more light on where development for LOS happens zelos156?

SparkOS and EvolutionX both great very stable and great battery life. Definetly better then that MIUI garbage that hasn't been updated for freaking 4 months.

Unfortunately we have to wait. But at that moment the person who was supposed to take it gave up. I don't have enough knowledge myself to do it... We have a Los-based crdroid. This is already a very good sign.
(Dear Valued RedMagic Customer,
Thank you for your patience,
Please check the source code at https://github.com/ztemt. If you cannot access the connection, please refresh the interface and try again the next day. Thank you for your understanding.)
Edit :
It's already released.
Now I hope the developers start creating fantastic roms for this beast phone

Isn't our device NX729J? I don't see kernel source released for this... Sounds like they giving you the run around. They would sell a lot more phones if they did release. I almost didn't buy one due to this.. Hopefully they will release it soon.
Edit: Cool! It's finally released!

I see there are 7S and 6S kernels, but I don't see any custom ROMs for them, so idk if we will see any for this phone too.
The repo is now available, however, it's empty by the time of me posting this now. It took them two weeks just to create the repo, that's insane. Well, at least it finally happened. Waiting for sources to be uploaded, they probably have to use slow vpn or something to do that, so it might take quite a bit of time.
What can we do with the kernel source?
So it is here.

Well, apparently we'll have to write drivers for our device:
Code:
# nubia driver
drivers/nubia
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/nubia
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J_diff.config
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J-perf_diff.config
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J_driveronly.config
This is from .gitignore, so we can't build this kernel and run it i.e. on stock rom.

We're not gonna see them until someone writes these drivers or zte publishes them. Both are very unlikely, so...
Seems like they uploaded it again, on zips. I checked and it seems to contain several things inside the /drivers/nubia folder so we probably have now a full workable kernel source
