I am going to post nightly builds of Cyanogenmod 12.1 for the MOTO G Falcon only.
Please keep in mind that it is a good idea to use the latest build of 12.1 because of important security fixes.
The posted nightlies are built from the official sources.
I made two modifications to the source code:
I.) I patched call recording into the rom - you can record any calls you make or take.
II.) I patched signature spoofing support into the rom. Now you can install microG GmsCore. This way you can get rid of the proprietary GAPPS.
I am not sure for how long I can update this thread - but the next version will be built when Android security patch level for March is reached.
I strongly recommend to use this build or build it on your own because of critical bugs that got fixed with the February patch level.
Android security patch level:

Fun Fact: It took 25 hours to build this rom with a 1.6 ghz core2duo, 4 gig of ram and 5400rpm hdd.
Thanks man!!!
One question please.
Why 12.1 ??
I mean, cm 13 is already available and its stable enough to be used.
P.S.: in my personal opinion marshmallow is more smooth in ram management then lollipop.
Well, let me say THANK YOU!
It looks very promising! Downloading. Many people will complain about not using cm13. IMO 5.1.1 can still have a lot of better changes and improvements. Thanks to you and all those devs who haven't forgotten CM12.1.
Hi, I am using this rom without any problems so far but I do have a question, why can't I install some games that I can install on other lollipop roms? Like Sonic Dash, Deus Ex and Robot Unicorn Attack?
Thanks in advance.
Unofficial build of LineageOS 15.1 (Android 8.1 Oreo) and AICP 13.1 (Android 8.1 Oreo) for the Sony Xperia M2 (eagle).

thank you for maintaining this device
one small thing, i think you should add @galaxyfreak @Konstantinosj77 and @sgspluss in the contubitors list
i am daily using my eagle to see how he handles light usage on this rom, and it is pretty good. there are visual lags when you switch between apps or launching apps (thats totally expected from 5 year old mid tier (now low-tier) phone, running new version of android). i have one problem though, and it happened on previous builds of 15.1 too, after some time equalizer kills itself and i can't get it work until i reboot the phone. also sometimes my phone ignores my sim card (popping it out and inserting it solves this), also this happened on 7.1.2 roms.
overall, i can say it is usable, you can enable android go mode if you want, it improves performance a lil bit. but i suggest 14.1 as it performs better compared to oreo. also do not flash gapps on this little fella it can't handle it lol
thank you for providing updates for our eagle do not let dis guy die
edit: using airplane mode overnight causes "No Service" issue
First of all, thanks for keeping the device updated. It means a lot
Anyway. Right now I have installed your AICP build and I want to report everything working well so far, performance is decent even with nano gapps, no major glitches or hiccups. Magisk also works as it should, though if you want to update/install something you need Magisk Hide disabled, but after installing you can just re-enable it safely. I would say this works even better than RR, but then again, some very advanced settings might be missing.
(Also sorry for posting the stuff here, since there was no dedicated topic for that ROM, I guess it is okay to post some stuff here?)

They have the same source, so all the bugs and changes in LOS 15.1 and AICP 13.1 are the same.
AICP continued to update the old Oreo, I think that in may-2019 (after the Android Security Update is done, usually by the middle of the month) we will have a new AICP-Oreo build along with LOS-Oreo.
But the RR-Oreo is not updated.

What are the advantages of RR over AICP?
AICP has about the same large part of additional options.

Oh, if it has the same or more features then I don't care
EDIT: Is the I2C bug serious enough for being a reason not to upgrade to Oreo in this moment?
New build LineageOS 15.1 published.
Hello! When you are allow to download?

im stuck rooting this device at SuperSU binary update

already fixed, my bad, i just need to flash that supersu zip files
LineageOS 15.1 build 2019-06-16 released:
Numerous kernel fixes, and LMK reconfigured. The kernel has become better.
The kernel fixed bugs due to which the Android Go mode worked incorrectly earlier. Android Go is not included in these builds, but now you can enable it.
My honest review : This ROM have really good battery life, almost 24 hours still on. but when im using it for daily driver for opening apps its really slow, changing one app to other app slow too, i cant tell why. but i really appriciate the job, no bug, almost stable, but real annoying loading apps

It depends on the programs used (and installed!). Some users complain about this.
Sometimes cleaning up the Recent App helps.
The solution is to use Android 8.1 Go mode, there is no such problem there. But there are other problems there ... Probably in July-2019 there will be a public build in Android Go mode.
According to the Google specification for 1GB of RAM, it should be Android 8.1 Go mode.
But it looks ugly (lag scrolling in web browsers, It lacks some features, background tasks work more rarely)…
Upd:
You can try to change in build.prop dalvik.vm.heapgrowthlimit. Instead of 96m, put 128m.
It helps some.
also do not forget this phone falls into low-end segment nowadays so don't expect 1 second loading times. downgrading apps to their 2017-2018 versions can help.
AND do not use gapps, use microg instead or ditch google stuff altogether
Huh, I don't know tbf what are you expecting from this phone, which is now 5 years old, originally. I think first of all we should be thankful to the devs who worked with this device, so that we now have Oreo still running on this phone.
Anyway, regarding my experience - still good so far. I'm currently using AICP May release, and everything works good so far, speed is very much acceptable for a device this old, and since it's still my main phone it's daily usage is nice (nowadays mostly Messenger Lite stuff, but also occasional Snapchating, but else mostly Reddit-Twitter-Browsing or taking pictures/videos).
Though not sure why or how, but I think my Reboot to Recovery broke - it worked after fresh install once or twice after I tried, but now if I try phone restarts, phone tries to enter recovery, but only led flashes orange (mostly orange), then it restarts again to normal. Strange.
And yeah, Magisk 19.3 still works, just need to disable MagiskHide if you want to install/update apps and restart after that. It does work with it enabled also if you don't plan to update apps for a bit.
Edit: Fixed a few typos.

Excellent work guys!! I am so excited to finally have stock android on my tablet. I have been following the root progress ever since I got in when it was brand new. Can't wait to install this!
EDIT: Just installed it. I love it so far! It's very nice having a stock android experience on this wonderful tablet. IMHO it seems speeder but it may just be because there's not as many apps because I had allot, but overall, great work!
other than the stuff outlined above everything else works right?
and is it possible that the headphones are an easy fix
Working perfect thanks for your work, and for anyone wondering what Gapps to flash use arm64-5.1-nano
Works fantastic. Thank you!!
i tried it and its fine but its really slow with 5g internet and magisk's hide feature doesn't work
is it possible to return it to stock?
This is great! Thank you very much! I've been waiting for this since I bought this tablet

Wired headphones is a known bug in mt81xx amazon based tablets. It needs modifications in kernel source so it's not really easy to fix, it can take some time.
Also we tested the ROM and we only noticed that issues but there can be more.

@Rortiz2 congratz on getting it to work. I don't have my tablet for a few days, but am looking to forward to trying it out.
Also based on the above quote, the ROM is 64 bit?!? That's awesome.
Is there a plan to make the Karnak ROM 64 bit in the future?

The ROM is 64 bit because stock FireOS is it too.
No, it's impossible to boot a 64 bit OS on a device without proprietary 64 libs.

@Rortiz2 Are you working on the Headphone Issue? How long it will take? It's the only thing that's keeping me away from the Rom. I consume a lot of media using wired headphones.
Anyway, thanks for your hard work!
Just finished installing it, no issue encountered, thanks to you all
