Is there any custom kernel for Oppo Find 7a for Android 4.3 and Android 4.4.2? I hope there will be an upstreamed version also (Linux 3.4.91). Thanks

Not as of yet. Keep track of the Threads in Android Development & Original Android Development. It will be quite obvious when a custom kernel gets released..which it should...Eventually...........

I don't know about other projects, but I have no intention of pulling in kernel.org upstream on omni.
Why? All of the patches are for hardware that doesn't exist in our phone and rarely have any benefit and in some cases cause regressions. (For example, on the Galaxy S2, pulling in upstream kernel patches would hide some forms of Android OS usage from battery stats - so if your wifi chip went nuts with IRQ spam you wouldn't notice a thing.) In addition, patches that ARE relevant have a bad habit of causing conflicts with CodeAurora pulls. (I do periodically do CAF upstream merges from the kk_3.5 branch)
Hey Guys,
I prefer to build a own AOSP from this Thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/rom-android-source-project-t3337687
but the Problem is the CAF Stuff and so..... somebody have any idea to create a version with the current CAF & Android 6.0.1 Revision? There is needed to change on vendor or device Drivers from his Github ? https://github.com/cile381
I was wondering if it was possible to treblize sailfish os and/or ubuntu touch. It would've been wonderful.
Nothing is impossible, but bringing ubuntu or any other OSs which aren't android based is going to be pain, don't get me wrong, it might not, im not sure, but Linux isn't Android (Except the Kernel)

I like your attitude. I think porting Linux to a treble device wouldn't be too hard just because Linux is very flexible, but I wouldn't know how to go about it. I'd like to do something similar to the op, only I want forward port Nougat to a treble device. A blast from the past kind of deal.

Thanks,
As far as i know these os'es are based on halium which is based on android 5.1 and 7.1 . It will be only possible if they upgrade their android version

Yes that is right.
I was about to ask the same question....the linux Arm64 images are available already (for Arch & Debian at least) so if we got these to become GSI that would be awesome and will give us way more freedom
Hey has anyone tried to port and build a linux nethunter kernel for our device? Maybe for a LOS based rom, or even stock?
Hi. I want to try to build lineage os 17/18 for my old phone. I have env and I already build package for other phone. For Nexus 4 there and only some old lineage os 15 builds. How to prepare lineage os 18 based on lineage os 15? Is it possible or maybe it needs to be done from scratch. Is there any instruction how to do this?
Porting a ROM means there's a similar device with a working LineageOS on it. Which means it's already built, and only small modifications to make it stable for you.
Porting doesn't work the way you described. You can't build Android 12 on top of Android 8, every new major Android update, Google releases a new source code.
Then, manufacturers/developers modify it to their sweets. What you want to do is to build LineageOS 18/17 for an unsupported device. There's a lot of guides online about it. The context matters.
Can you share some links about building lineage os for unsupported devices? Will it help somehow when there are some old versions builds?
