I knew someone would ask. if someone was interested they'd already be preparing. you asking/begging makes no difference.

Only a matter of porting system images that are coming to the n5 and n7 but that would be hard to do..

It doesn't matter we'll be getting it sooner than the others. So stay calm and wait

Port ?

How to do that?
I am having Moto G (still waiting for Android L updates), But I would like to offer my help.

It is possible but first you need to edit or create a device tree. (Only an AOSP device tree is compatible I guess)
You need a kernel tree, AND a vendor tree.
Motorola has published the Moto G GPE sources in the 'falcon' branch here, just view the latest release:
http://github.com/motorolamobilityllc
So we need real developers to edit these trees. I know how to compile roms, but I DON'T know how to edit device trees.
So I don't think it's really necessary because it's only a Developer Preview and I prefer an official Android L release first...

ELI5 Kenel Source Code

hello, so i have been in communication with huawei regrading the kernel source. i mentioned the lack of source files for the mate 7 and how its part of the google/android agreement that oems must share all relevant sources for devices that use any part of android. they replied with the usual reply about how they will work hard to resolve this issue and whatnot. the rep did give me a link to the kernel source which i believe is for kitkat but i cant be sure so i hope that someone can verify.
having said that, why cant the kitkat source be used to build for lollipop and marshmallow? im still using a nook hd+ that is running MM......... WHAT??? how is this possible if the only kernel provided was for ICS? anyway, im going to keep poking at them until they either give up the LP/MM sources of they tell me to ****off. so, if anyone can please check out the link i would really appreciate it.
Lollipop Kernel?

Good news I have a working Linage OS 13 build for the lg stylo 2 Plus GSM. Thought it was bug free still has some issues though . My PC took a dump I have the sources saved on my hard drive I will have a new PC on Feb 6 and will release the Rom For Free probably with in a few days from then. As I'm almost done porting a working lineage OS 14 for the device.
I will update the device tree on Github So I can get help from other devs to trouble shoot these issues better and collaborate works. I will also include a working recovery with the Rom for free . I am doing this in my free time so please be patient .
I will keep you posted ?
Any people interested in helping let me know.

You can downgrade your firmware .
Nice work let me know when the source is up at github , i may be able to help
I'm so anxious I can't wait to get my new PC! I will be compiling a lot faster. You guys are going to like this lineage OS port. Hang in there
Any screenshots?
I'm interested in this also

Not at the moment I had the backlight on my display burn out . had to flash the stock rom back for warranty purposes and for some reason every time I try and back up via twrp the data gets corrupted.
So the only place I have a working Rom is stored on a hard drive and I get my PC back on the 6th this month so it will be up soon.

Got the new laptop up and running building starts tommorrow.
All souces are downloaded . I will start building the device tree tonight hopefully by end of week myself and @messi2050 will have a working lineage OS build for the ph2n. I stood up all night working on the list of proprietary files need for the build.
Now comes the hard work of adding all the required blobs to get it all functional please be patient. As we are doing this in out free time. Once the device tree is all setup it will be a lot easier to port other roms to this device such as omni aokp DU and so much more. I chose a 13 build as I'm new to this and its a lot easier to port a Rom that has many components that are stable with the version.
If you appreciate our work buy us a cup of coffee. Or hit the thanks button for the Devs working on this build .
Thanks to all the xda community.
We should work on a changelog concerning drivers for cheaper models like my tmousa k550.

Custom all the way.
I am sending this to you in hopes of curing my boredom...
Montoya, how are you getting the blobs? I have root when want it, I just don't right now. I have teamoctos synced, I have all the source code for our device. I'm not much of a programmer, but let me know I can help. I have Ubuntu with all the packages for compiling.
we need all the help we can get

@messi2050
has one repository done for device /device
i have the other kernel/
i am working on the blobs using @JackpotClavin utility tool to pull all the blobs needed for the build. once we have a stable tree we can work on building other roms.
Good news we have the the last branch to the tree built so builds will start this week sometime. We have a lot of work ahead still so be patient.
Tree source and blobs are on github.

Both you and Messi are doing amazing things. When this is done, both of you are getting a cup of java (I couldn't resist Java instead of Joe or Coffee). I downloaded the jackpotcalvindonkey thing yesterday, did the make on it, but didn't get it out.
Btw, your github shows no public repos.
Well that was quick

Android O is getting released for other phones already

Any chance we could see the development for Moto-G ?
AOSP or Lineage..
Or can someone provide me a tutorial to build myself?
Would be happy about an experimental build with basic functions. Just to test the new version. Hope that's coming soon to us

I have all the resources to build myself, i just need to know how to build one.. any tutorial available specifically for Moto-G on building ROMs?
Hope anybody can help
the almighty Search can help you.
What about android GO? Is android O but for low phones. Maybe for our Moto G 2013 is the better solution

Porting B2G to moto g3

Hi Folks,
I'm trying to port B2G to my moto g3. I was referring to this doc (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Archive/B2G_OS/Porting_B2G_OS/basics). However some of the things mentioned in this doc are not clear to me. Could you please help me with the below issue.
I'd like to build the AndroidKernel from source. So where should I include the below lines? Is it in this file?
https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_motorola_osprey/blob/cm-14.1/rootdir/etc/init.target.rc
HTML:
on early-init
start ueventd
import /init.b2g.rc
Also if I understood correctly. building the kernel from source doesn't require to unpack , edit the init.rc file and repack the kernel from the device. Could you please confirm this?
Thanks,
Arun
Hi Arun,
I totally understand your frustration with this. You'd like to contribute to the Servonk project but first you need to port B2G to your phone or buy a new phone. Since the only other supported phones are the Z3 compact and Nexus 5, both of which are still relatively expensive secondhand, you want to use your Moto G3 which means first porting B2G to it.
So, I think there are two options you have:
1. Port direct from the AOSP code
2. Port from the CM12 code.
As Gerard said in telegram, porting from CM to B2G was never finalised so may actually require more work. However there may actually be more people here who can help you since people seem more familiar with CM than AOSP (in general, I know some people are very knowledgeable in both).
I see you've posted in the AOSP 7.1.1 kernel thread. Unfortunately, for the Servonk project you currently need a Lollipop based build, so 5.x AOSP kernel or CM12.x.
It might be worth asking a mod to move this thread into one of the development sub-forums.
As you know, this is the limit of my knowledge, but I really hope you find some success, if would be great if you could contribute to the Servonk project.
Your last option is to use the desktop build of Servonk, based on Glutin instead of Gonk, but I understand that you really want to get Servonk working on your phone.
Best of luck

Will there be a Custom Rom?

Does anyone know about this topic?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-note-10/how-to/custom-development-t4018813
In short:there are same some efforts trying to get custom Roms but nothing groundbreaking yet.
I am working on the device tree right now to compile from source. Not ready yet and don't have the device in hand right now (should arrive soon) s.o. else is trying with treble images.

I thought device tree is something that was used to be leaked from Xiaomi
As far as I can see there is no device tree published by xiaomi for tucana (our device)
Only thing we have rn is kernel source.
But we can create device tree by ourself. There are some basic guides online. Rest is compare with existing device trees for similar devices and copy&paste.
for now I have downloaded k20 device tree, removed everything k20-specific (e. G. Popup Camera) and adapt further files for our device(s)
When my handset arrives (should be today) I can start unlock procedure (should take some time to get the code AFAIK), then I can unlock bootloader, flash custom recovery and see if I can get my device to boot properly after flashing... Then comes troubleshooting.
Right now I am expecting maybe a halfway booting device or broken/missing functionality at best. But we will see
I hope soon
The more people help together the faster we can get some Roms ?

I have seen this Android 9 source code. Is it helpful?
https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/tucana-p-oss
I thought this model would have more support and after 4 months there is no Rom. I hope that now that the price is going down more people buy it and we have more community. Thank you for what you know and develop.

Just an incomplete kernel sources, I think is useless.
https://www.xda-developers.com/poss...-fcc-certified-snapdragon-730g-penta-cameras/
There will be a lite edition soon. The only difference on hardware is number of pixels.
If its ROM is same or almost the same to current models, we should get some progress around development.
Anything new?

Well, just tell me if you need help.
Same here, I am very tempted by the Note 10 but I am waiting for an aosp rom as many people complained about the stock miui rom
Any news or update on this? Would love to buy a Mi Note 10 as their prices have gone down but with the lack of development I'm kind of leaning towards the 9t even tho I'm worried about that front camera as some have had issues. I suspect not many are developing for this device because of the high price. Hopefully whoever said something up there about the Note 10 lite gets custom ROMs going with more devs
I'm still trying here but very short on time. We have some good progress on device tree thanks to someone else (thanks Hlcpereira).

Awesome news! Thanks :good:
I think the development goes now straight because we have MIUI Stable based on Android 10 now.
Good luck!
