Let us all hope and Pray....

The way its getting delayed, i doubt pie will come (that too fully stable) for our old device. Last @flex1911 said that Lineage is almost fixed. Maybe be should ask him and motivate more.

Yeah, I've been working last week on some stuff for Flo, but unable to test since my USB is dead. I got one guy to do it, waiting for him.
I've got no solder now, so can't fix my flo yet. Gonna do it later.

Apologies for naivete, I just repo sync'd Unlegacy Android Pie thinking that since Flo was in the branch that it was already possible just no one was compiling it.
Again, just a brand-nubian banging my head against obstacles until they give, is it not possible to take say a Marlin P kernel and run it through LazyFlasher to make it Flo friendly?
LazyFlasher is a custom kernel flashing tool designed to make it easy to dynamically modify ramdisks and inject kernel binaries into the current boot image.
It's the swiss army knife of kernel flashing for use in Team Win Recovery Project.
The intent behind it was to allow a 1 custom kernel fits all approach, where your users can flash single zip on any ROM for a particular device,
allowing your kernel to be compatible with the vast majority of custom ROMs already out there. It takes away the pain of building custom boot.img
for each and every variant a user requests and puts it into 1 low maintenance intelligent universal flashable zip.

Thank you for persevering and keeping this awesome device awesome.

Here is an android pie ota package for nexus 7 (flo):

Dummy question - how to flash that OTA package?

[DEV][DEV-ONLY] Honeycomb Progress

[This is not the place to say "this is awesome" or "thanks!"]
[DEVS ONLY]
I want to start this thread to keep up the progress on the port.
the bad news is that the SDK is incomplete for now, so (like other devices)
we will have to write our own code for the OS, the nook community
has done a wonderful job writing their own libraries and stuffs, so we will have to do the same.
Instead of pursuing different goals, let's focus on one thing at a time.
since GSM and CDMA versions are already out, it seems we suffer the same bugs, so for now let's unite strength and knowledge to overcome these.
I propose that the first goal to fix is the SurfaceFlinger, so we could at least see the apps, the buttons and the notifications.
it is currently throwing this:
04-06 22:01:35.495: ERROR/Surface(2960): dequeueBuffer failed (Out of memory)
this could lead us that it might coudln't start because of some malloc malfunction or something.
also that pvrsrvinit bugs me a lot.
update:
8/APR/2011
since DiP7 could fix SurfaceFlinger and other things using a different build from the GSM kernel, we have to dig deeper
======================================
CURRENT GOAL
Rebuild Kernel
======================================​
Current approaches:
*none
Post any finding, guessing or anything, and please, please don't be afraid to ask anything you have a doubt, as a Dev you should not know everything, so we can help us each other

Mmmk.. Let me tell you a story.
A long time ago in a galaxy far away... No, that will take too long. In a nutshell, one third of the answer is here, another third is here and the rest is here. I'm not trying to be intentionally vague, I just haven't figured out how these three fit together yet.
Of course, there could also be some bit of code that I missed... some telling line in a debug log that I overlooked or some driver or library that I could have decompiled to sift through its juicy secrets. There could easily be a fix that would take seconds to add and make the whole thing fall in line...
Or we might have to work it from the ground up.
Either way it will happen. It's just a matter of whether it will happen next week, or next month.
(Watch it be a misplaced semi-colon, or a bad symlink... that's how these things go.)

The kernel source that you have linked to is 2.6.35.7 for the Nexus S gingerbread and is not fully maintained by samsung but rather by google.
However I do not think you are wrong that there is a problem somewhere in the kernel. The kernel that has been released for the galaxy tab is a mess of horrid code, I have had to re-write parts of kernel drivers just to get them to work under linux, I would not be surprised if similar patches are needed for honeycomb

Unfortunatey, we have 4 other honeycomb threads.

I really dislike the idea of this thread, there is enough clutter amongst the other threads. Do we really need one more place to browse..

Yes, and it contains some support for our device (s5pc110), and some more that can be added (pvr) and the architecture necessary to fully support HC without patching the build itself. If we work only towards patching the system build to communicate with the hardware, we won't be able to run AOSP hc versions when the source drops without going through the same painstaking process of hacking the system to function (while creating numerous faults causing FCs in the process). If we build a new kernel, we can get the hardware to communicate in the way future android versions want it to and we can then do what we want with ease.

Not enough really, PVR kernel module sources have been released from samsung for our device, and is available in update1 zip.
The kernel panics and we have no framebuffer from the nexus s, believe me that is the kernel I want to be running for my project, it is cleaner nicer and things are implemented overall better. unless you know of a solution for kernel debuging over usb

Older versions of LineageOS?

CyanogenMod was brilliant for old devices. You could take CM9, tweak it around, and install it on something like the Galaxy Ace GT-S5830. You could breathe life into an old device.
Will there be older versions of LineageOS to accomplish the same thing? For example, an Android 4.2 Jelly Bean LineageOS? Or will it go no lower than Nougat 7.1?

Any device that was actively being developed when CM ended should be picked up by Lineage OS. If the device was no longer supported by CM, it is not likely to be supported now.
It goes back to 6.0.1 but no further.
It will do both, apparently.....
Someone appears to have updated the cm-12.1 branch, FWIW. I'm wondering if they're slowly working backwards.

That would be my assumption since it's probably a lot easier to find people with knowledge to build CM13/12.1 than people with building knowledge for CM7 per say.

Funny you should say that, because I had to do just that very thing. I own an old phone (Motorola Atrix 4G) that never officially got support beyond CM7, so I've created my own custom CM7 for it (I'm using it as a glorified media player, but it's also allowed me to hone up on my Android ROM tinkering skills). When CM became LinOS, I created a Github organization (https://github.com/CM-Archive) to preserve the CM "gingerbread" branch, and found that there were a few things that need to be changed in order to make a clean compile. I'd offer to bring the "gingerbread" branch on LineageOS up to date for those few people who really need the CM7 code, as I've already done the work and know what needs to be changed, but as I've never made any contributions to CM or any ROM project, I don't know how to go about it. Can anyone tell me what I need to do? Something easy to follow, not "Get the frimfram and keloplotz the FTL missengibble on the gonfropple."

That's pretty epic dude! I have an LG Lucid vs840 from that had a CM9 out fot it was considering doing the same thing. As for helping them with their efforts I have no idea where to start.
But I do have a question, do you think it'd be very hard to update the cm7 cm9 or cm11 to Marshmallow devices? This might sound foolish but im still curious lol
The CM repo is moved wholesale to LineageOS, so if you know how to build, you could still build any version you like from the new source, provided that the older version was there previously in CM. I've built Lineage 13 (CM13) for several of my devices just now since I still need Xposed.
You can't expect any useful updates for <CM12.1 though, as CM had stopped working on them long ago. Not worth the extra effort of maintaining them, plus unfixable security holes.
Not looking to maintain them, simply to update them to compile from the LinOS repo. Specifically, the default.xml in the android package needs the references to CyanogenMod changed to LineageOS, and other references need to be changed as well. Once that's done, nothing further needs to be done.

Hi im looking for lineageOS 13.0-20170513-nightly-x2 this must be the last official version of that rom right?

You say that, but there was CM for my old 2011 LG phone but I would be tremendously surprised if a LOS ROM ever shows up because there doesn't seem to be any active development for that device anymore. Makes me sad because I would love to have LOS on it (and security updates newer than 2012) but I wouldn't bank on it... the newest CM ROM I can find for it is from 2015.

Lineage OS on LeEco Le Pro 3

Hello everyone,
the question and disscussion is:
Do we get Lineage OS support in the Future? it does not matter if unofficial or official, but what do you think?
I saw the LeEco le Max 2 get some unofficial support, so it could be that some Devs will try it.
It would be awesome *_*
I think the problem is, that the community isn't that big like for the le Max 2, but maybe it will get bigger in the future.
What do you think? :good:
I'm running my own custom image of LineageOS 13.0. All is working as expected, but I don't have time to clean all the stuff to share it with public. I uploaded my sources that works in https://www.github.com/corvusmod, so if someone wants to build it, feel free
For L14 version, camera is not working already and will not work until Leeco release N for Pro3
I think, it's not discussion, but it is a question. So, it should be in "QUESTIONS & ANSWERS". Le Max 2 have bigger community, because this phone is cheaper and cheapest Le Max 2 was for 180-200$. This mobile is older. Our Le Pro 3 have few months and in future it could have more community and ROMs like this.

Wooow! Someone interested?
It would be awesome!
:fingers-crossed:
Who could we talk to in order to get official support?
I dont know, but to get official support there should be at first a stable unofficial lineage OS Version. I do not know much about creating ROMs but i hope someone does and will create a masterpiece for le pro 3
I hope so
I can continue cleaning of the LOS13. I have quite a bit of free time and want to get started on a project. If corvus doesn't mind, I'll make a thread on my progress and, eventually, some stable builds.

Hi @jts2111,
No problem from my side. TS team shared with me the sources, I modified them for Lineage, and try to do some tweaks (already uploades) and have some more in local, but causes some problems, so I didn't upload them.
With this image I get more than 3 days of batt time and a sot of 8 hours, so it's good for me. My only concern is that I was not able to make Camera2 HAL working to get manual settings. But I have little time to test, so any help from this side is welcome.
Only one thing, please, share the code in a public repo so TS, me or any other developer can see it and work together.
Thanks

I forked your repo and shared it in my post. I'll work on what you mentioned. One of my top (long term) goals is complete CTS compatibility. With safetynet passed, there'd be nothing that would really pull you back to stock.
Definitely, I'm preparing the Kernel code after code to ensure we get a very clean and functional Kernel for the future, instead of just merging the one from LeEco with more than 80% of unneeded bits due to their other devices being at the same place (shameful).
This will get a ~30MB Kernel reduced to around 12MB and thus make custom ROMs perform a lot better and boot immensely faster after all.
I'd only need one sense of common attitude which is asking LeTV to keep the Kernel source up-to-date when they launch OTAs as well, I've seen some comments regarding their image stabilization fix at latest release (OTA) which is only possible at Kernel/blob level and thus if we want to have this feature working (at least partially) we need the source code "right off the bat" to get those fixes. Please, make pressure on their forums for 5.9 x720 Kernel source code and for nougat preview builds, I'd appreciate to even help with their own EUI for that matter, I'll see if I can get in touch with them concerning those points.
Do we have someone from China or someone with experience with Chinese so we can attach our discussions there?
I do hope they keep the open source up to date, but it seems they are doing the bare minimum to apply to Google's open source policy. I'm in the US, so I have the x727 with 1 SIM. We would need someone to test with a x720 as well.
@GalaticStryder, Leeco only will post the sources needed to avoid license problems with GPL, so dont wait much help from them. But we can ask...
@jts2111, I have a 720, so I can test your builds.
@jts2111
I received my X720 this week and I could also test your experimental build.
It would be nice to already start with a LineageOS custom ROM as first ROM to avoid a lot of reinstallation / reconfiguration of apps with other kind of custom ROMs.

Personal Build Playground Moto G5 Plus

I'm creating this thread to post personal builds to those that want to try them. Just an FYI I'm choosing this approach instead opening numerous unoffical build threads because 1)I'm unsure how much time I'll be able to invest 2) I'm too much of a flashaholic to stay with one rom long enough to properly support it 3) I'm not a dev, I'm just someone with a linux laptop that enjoys putting pieces together. Also If anyone would like to share their builds or assist with others that want to learn to compile. (JUST PLEASE DO EVERYONE A FAVOR AND MAKE SURE THE ROM BOOTS FIRST AND ARE NOT GOING BRICK DEVICES ALONG WITH SOURCES)(BUGS are expected this is a newbie.....as in Me thread)
Note:
I used SuperSU for root on this rom with no problems what so ever, Mileage may very with those that use Magisk.
Maintaining of rom may be here nor there depending on if I grow tired of the rom and decide to go to bigger and better things or if time allows, so please don't expect or request updates......I'm doing this just to share my personal builds and hopefully spark interest with others.

I'm running Ubuntu mate 16.04 at the moment but I hop distros from arch to fedora. And that kind of answers your other question, I'm to A.D.D to stick with one rom for long and I open a thread I'm committing to that rom. This is more or less a hobby for me and when get a chance I'll build but it doesn't happen very much between the kids and the girlfriend lol.

Xperience 12.0 oreo!!
New build up in OP, ENJOY!
Hey thanks for sharing I'll test one out this weekend .
Cardinal Update is in the oven
Had a ittle bitty stump in the build but don't worry I made it up to you all by adding a couple of additional features
PS....why is it so quite in here?? Feels like I'm talking to myself.........this is a discussion/build form lol! crickets!!crickets!! crickets!! Believe me all I don't mind a little off topic as long as you keep it clean and nice and android focused. Just don't blow up the thread with screenshots or links
Soooooo........thinking about a rebase to another linux distro soon...any input on with one? Thinking Fedora because it's also a great distro for building on but I do miss Solus and Arch
Hi!! I'm that guy from g+ remember me?? The one asking for the cypher os build? Well I've come to ask again, sorry if that sounded a little rude.
No, but my DUDEE! I think cypher 5.0 sources are up already. Can you make a build? Please? I don't if you take request like this but at least I tried.
Also that cardinal build is ? supper smooth, just one thing fingerprint gesture didn't work either. I hope you fix that in the update. Thank you for all this ROMs that no one are building, just you

Thanks for the feed back, I'll look into the fingerprint thing again soon but probably wont be in this build as its already building after being up all night trying to wrap my head around a feature that due to sleep will have to wait lol. I'll see if I cant get a cypher build out soon as well:good:
Cardinal AOSP Update 10/19
Alright peps, sorry for the long delay....but the build is ready. Not exactly what I want to upload because I was wanting to add a certain feature but with sleep deprivation kicking in I was forced to put it on the back burner and do a clean build. So with that said I'm going to get some rest and I will update the OP with changes and so on tomorrow...HAPPY FLASHING :cyclops::silly::victory:

[HomeBrews] Pixel 2: LineageOS/CarbonROM/DirtyUnicorns

Dirty Unicorns is a project that started out with no name. It was a project that was first based off AOKP back in the early days of Jelly Bean. In the early days it was just a one man show on one device, the EVO 3D. Since then, many others have joined the project and it has grown exponentially.
We have seen a lot of talent contribute to this project of ours. Big or small, the focus was always on contributing to the community. That is ultimately why we do what we do. After Jelly Bean, we decided to move to a new base, OmniROM. While AOKP was fun, OmniROM proved to be even more exciting base because it challenged us to see what we could do with a project that had different goals in mind. We learned a lot and again, gain contributors. With Lollipop, we moved to an AOSP base with a lot of patches from CAF to make our older devices function as they should. We grew even more and learned a whole lot more.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CarbonROM is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. We are dedicated to fast, stable, and feature-filled roms, honesty and communication with our users, and openness with our code. We like frequent builds, with the very latest and greatest hardware support and fixes. We strive to not only provide you with the best rom we can build, but also to give back to the Android community and our fellow developers. For us, this is about creating something we can be proud of and hope you will enjoy.

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 8.1 (Oreo), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.
LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Pre-Disclaimer:
THIS IS AN UNOFFICIAL BUILD. The intent is to showcase what is coming up soon. I have been working hard on getting Walleye on a level I consider DD ready, especially from a security side of things.
Please keep any problems with those builds in this thread, I don't accept any bug reports for any other builds other than my HomeBrews.
Disclaimer:
While I make every effort to test these builds as much as possible, I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your device. I ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash or post that you broke your phone!
Support:
I spend an astonishing amount of time developing this device. I can't spend much time on XDA as a result, so if you need support, please try the following:
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has adressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Ask a question in this forum. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
Notice:
This build includes GApps for now. We're still working on ways to not prebundle it.
Before you flash, make sure you're on the latest 8.1 stock builds (and bootloader), then flash the ROM in TWRP.
Instructions :
Boot to TWRP
Format Data (If you didn't type YES, you did it wrong!)
adb sideload homebrews.zip
reboot system
(to gain root you must first boot homebrewsROM. Then reboot and to TWRP and install Magisk 1 6.0)
See below
Reporting Bugs:
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved.
What is your--
Build Date:
Did you--
wipe:
all data?
install gapps when you weren't suppose to?
Provide any additional information (observations/frequency of problem/last version it worked on/etc) as needed:
WARNING: These are my personal testing builds. They include unmerged, work-in-progress stuff such as SuperUser, Privacy Guard, Google Play services etc. DO NOT FLASH 3RD PARTY GAPPS PACKAGES!
If you see a warning about vendor partition mismatch, you can ignore that in most cases, but before reporting issues you should be on the right version (without the warning).

Is there really no mainstream support for this device? Everything that comes out, no disrespect, is moonshine lol.

Don't devices that are not officially supported need someone to start the process and possible become a maintainer? I could be mistaken. I myself think moonshine is pretty cool and would love to know how to make it.
Holy crap do my lying eyes deceive me or is there a rom for the Pixel 2 LOL,,,thanks brother for letting me know about this. Now who is going to be the guinea pig and flash it LOL

Sorry, i got super anxious myself when i finally got playstore, phone, and text messaging working.
Thus the piss poor thread that i copy and pasted from taimen's lineage.

I heard they are working on taimen first then our phone. For the most part it is all their that it seems. ****ty part is they cannot make it official until they find out why you cannot flash gapps.
So the work around is make it unofficial and build gapps inside.

I was the same way. A **** ton of reading and a lot of PMing. It is pretty simple when you get the hang of it. This early in the game you get to see the codes that attract you to certain roms or kernels.
Right now i just need to make sure it is stable before i work on the kernel or choose what rom i am gonna stick with.

That's what i heard. If i knew that last weekend we would have had that much sooner.
Awesome, glad to see some work
Sideloading it worked. Totally clean install- formatted data (as in typed "yes") and pushed the files like described.
*Wouldn't pick up my 5ghz wireless network during setup, but connected once I was in the os.
LTE seems fine, the screenshot is par for what I get around here. Still setting up and testing, but looking good so far!
Thanks @Ryche666
