If you are a developer, and wish to have a device merged into Omni, here is the current "temporary" process to use. There are 2 ways to do this - make your tree available on github (or a similar service), or request a new git tree be created, and submit it to gerrit.
1) Get your device working. There's plenty of help available in #omnirom on Freenode if you need assistance. An AOSP device tree is probably the best place to get started.
2) Set up your device to use the OmniROM "custom" build type, rather than full/aosp. More information will follow on this step - check device/samsung/manta or device/lge/mako for an example.
3) Make your device tree available on github or a similar git service. Please retain authorship of an original tree (if you fork it from AOSP or another custom ROM)
4) Come to #omni on Freenode, and have a chat to one of the core developers (they are listed at the top of the user list) - they will be able to help you get your device merged
Please note, in order to add a new device, we will require a maintainer on an ongoing basis for it, to ensure someone is able to investigate bugs that users report on a device. Without this, we unfortunately cannot enable nightly builds for a device.
will a cm kernel tree work for the most part with just a few changes?

yes - of course it must be 10.2 (4.3)
most likly it will work even unchanged

Along these lines, do NOT remove copyright attributions of a changed file. You may ADD copyrights to a header, but do NOT remove anything.

Most likely kernel change will be that reverting out that MDP sync point mess used by CM's AOSP+CAF frankendisplay. Can't link to it from my current location.
I have everything device sided transformed to Omni (m7ul,m7-common,and msm8960) and have exactly this problem now. Builds fine but Stucks after a few secs booting and hard reboots. Already looked into kmsg with maxwen but now we need to find what's causing it...
Reverted some stuff (MDP) kernel sided but haven't succeeded so far. Would be appreciated if u point us there when u back on a pc

TF300T
OK here goes..
For the Asus Transformer TF300T the kernel forked from the CyanogenMod github:
https://github.com/scanno/android_kernel_asus_tf300t/tree/android-4.3
And the device tree, modified to get OmniROM to finish the build and get a bootable result:
https://github.com/scanno/android_device_asus_tf300t/tree/android-4.3
Hopefully it will be added to the OmniROM github.

we already making progress but it needs more work to be done.. at least we are now in system with working wifi, and display but modem doesent work.. something for tomorrow, and i dont want to hijack this thread too sorry if my question was in the wrong section but i thought i mention it because of the post above mine. nevermind i cann offer to maintain m7ul as already discussed with maxwen and oin IRC but a lot of work needs to be done:
here are my sources, device trees are usable but kernel needs more work as said above:

kernel: its a modified one but its no problem to bring it back to stock features and will push as soon asap the modem stuff is sorted out
https://github.com/n3ocort3x/android_kernel_htc_m7
EDIT modem fixed, only BT left
@sykomaniac , look at first post and become a maintainer

Device info:

Kernel specifics - unified kernel and recovery
It compiles fine using the repos listed above, but throws up a kernel assert error when flashing the Rom. Several compilers for different devices complained about it in the 'All the answers' thread. The way out of this is to flash a CM10.2 kernel immediately after the Rom flash aborts, then Omni boots up fine.
What works:
1. telephony
2. mms
3. WiFi
4. GPS
What doesn't work:
1. data
2. bluetooth turns off as soon as you turn it on
3. both sdcards are invisible from Android; all your stuff is there when you drop into recovery, though
4. Settings/Storage FC when tapped - see #3
5. Performance options also FC
6. Notification drawer cannot be pulled down
Camera cannot be tested because it shuts down as soon as you start it, saying: "No external storage available" - again, see #3

Telephony & MMS & SMS
GPS
Sound
Camera (Both Front and Back)

Performance control
Notification drawer & Lights

Is anyone else working on d2att/d2can (Galaxy S3 I747)? I'm not overly familiar with ROM development, but I can compile CM10.2 for this device just fine, and I'm slowly working on getting Omni to compile for it as well. If someone more experienced than I is already working on it though, I'll probably just let them do it.
If I am the only one, expect some newb-ish questions in the near future.

Hello Everyone. I'm just N5 nomal user during 2years and I had question so write this text.
I googled about AOSP / Caf and understood like this.
AOSP was handling by google, have some feature.
Caf was handling by qualcomm, more performand and seek stabilization.
Question is, Pure AOSP+Caf rom is possible?
Developers offfer to us CM-Based Caf (hammerhead-caf) but I didn't heard about AOSP + Caf.
Did I have wrong thinking?
As I told, I'm just commly n5 user Please expain easily.
Have a nice day.

I think we cannot. CAF and AOSP are in two different line. If they can be combined, there must be a version of android like that now

But we already use CAF lines rom, like CM-Caf.
Dev. said, Basement is AOSP-CM and put in CAF source to it.
I had more curious why Dev. are don't use AOSP, just connect with cm

Hey Guys,
Ok so here is my situation.
I have a really old HTC Kernel that is lacking way behind in commits. Due to this, this is why LineageOS 14.1 is failing to build. Of course I could use a ugly hack and apply the commits manually of the Android Source that requires them but this is quite a ugly hack.
This is how the kernel looks like right now.
CAF Kernel from Dec, 2014 + Code removed ( like comments) by HTC + HTC Open Source Software
I want to go back to "CAF Kernel from Dec, 2014", Apply all of the Latest Commits and then apply the "HTC Open Source Software" on top of the Kernel.
What is the best way to do this, If I merge the Kernel, I have a ton of Conflicts and that isn't really efficient, pretty much the whole kernel is a conflict with extra new files added.
I think the best thing to do is to port the device to the normal android_kernel_cyanogen_msm8916 (because it is a Snapdragon 410 Phone) but I don't know how to do this and don't think it will work because it is missing HTC Features in the Kernel.
The latest source from the last device maintainer is here:
https://github.com/PatrikKT/android_kernel_htc_a31ul/commits/cm-12.1
https://github.com/HTC-MSM8916/android_kernel_htc_msm8916/commits/cm-13.0
I am the next Device Maintainer, hopefully.....
It's a mediatek processor and supports SPFlash byapss in case we screw up we can still recover...
Lenovo posted the 4.14 kernel, I tried building it and it seems to compile without any errors. Just need help getting the proprietary blobs and to build a device tree.
What's the model number of this?
I have a P11 TB-J606F
I am a developer, but I have no knowledge of how to extra the blobs ?
Can you post a link to the kernel sources ?

That is the snapdragon variant, likely much easier to develop a custom rom for...
I am talking about the mediatek one which is the cheaper model (although they call it "plus")

You can get the source from lenevo's open source website and search for your model...
There are scripts floating around that can help you extract the blobs from your running device or a system image.
You'll have to make a device tree though

You might have a lot of work to do then. You can compare with other tablets with the same SOC. Snapdragon is very common and they release their own source as well and can rebuild the kenrnel.
You can use that guys kernel and see what the panic is to figure out what he is missing. It's def possible!

Yep. Probably a year old kernel should be fine, and the other guy's kernel probably has a miss configuration
anyone out there to test custom rom for P11 plus? I have compiled it but I haven't received the bootloader unlock email reply so cant test myself
Is LineageOS working on this tablet? I recently bought the tablet for my son (on a whim, without doing much research) obviously a fault on my part but i was hoping someone smarter than me got it working. I don't mean to come off rude demanding anything, just hoping someone has it working.
Can I use tb- j607 f android ROM on tb-j606f the only difference is the chipset ..snapdragon 775 and 662..the hardware the same ..please help
