Hi,
I recently bought a few Lenovo A830s for my family and my company, and I'm interested in porting CyanogenMod 10.1 to them (and their smaller sister the A820)
I understand that we have access to some of the source code for the Mediatek kernel (github - varunchitre15/MT6589_kernel_source)
and that one of the other major sticking points is no support for dual SIMs in CM.
I was just wondering whether anyone was interested in helping me with this, and whether they had any more insights to give before I started looking into it.
If this project is successful, I think it should also be much more straightforward to port CM to other MTK 6589 devices.
Best wishes,
Tom

I started looking into this, but I found it quite tricky.
In the meantime someone ported MIUI V5 to this device, so I have been using that instead.

Ok, so this is CM from xda with mediatek kernel (ported - not compiled from source), btw - it's still kernel from 4.1. I'm going to buy nexus and say f**k you to that chinese apes. All of this is really unbelievable. There is nothing we can do.

[Recovery][Snapdragon][R7PlusM (全網通) /R7PlusF-TW] Unofficial TWRP (2.7.8.2)
For those interested.
wuxianlian - The creator of the "OppoTools" has created an TWRP Recovery for the "Plusm" version of the R7Plus.
It is the R7 Plusm with international bands, also known as a "全網通".
It has been discovered that the Taiwanese version "R7PlusF-TW" does not work with the official TWRP but only with this build.
You can download it here:
Google Drive
I have translated this version into English using Official TWRP files (only GUI files not binarys)
TWRP 2.7.8.2 in English Mega
**All credit goes to wuxianlian the same guy behind Oppo Tools!
Just a question
Can I flash it in my R7plusf?

Celox! I have been lurking and gathering all developments regarding our r7plusm Chinese variant. I have been in contact with Wuxianlin and the reason no further development has been made is due to him not having the phone anymore. If we can start a fund and send him an r7plusm I am sure we can all help develop a fully working rom with Git Repo and TWRP 3.0 recovery.
I am willing to be a tester and have my logcat ready.
I read your post on the Opppo forum about the r7plusF-TW edition partition dump (has fastboot enabled) from someone with the 64gb version. I have the 32gb r7plusm. Did you make any progress porting over the fastboot partition for the r7plusm?
Wuxianlin has a paypal account for donations towards development. With enough people, I propose we buy him the phone towards developing a CM13 branch and maybe a bootloader unlock solution.

I don't own an R7PlusM nor do I plan too.
I only changed the Chinese GUI for a R7PlusF-TW user that helped me out on my R7S project and decided to share it with everyone.
Also I don't think you will find a lot of supporters for what you plan on a Western-based developer forum as the R7PlusM is Asian-based.
You should start your approach on an Chinese/Asian based forum.
Good luck!

I don't have the partitions for the R7Plus-TW.
All I did was to unpack wuxialians Chinese TWRP and repack it with the English GUI.

If it's a snapdragon CPU you should be fine with Official LineageOS R7Plus ROM. The userdata size should be the only difference but that won't be touched.
I own a Lenovo A3500 -HV. I have been using it for an year now and it is running KitKat(4.4.2). There is no sign of a newer OS coming to this tab so I have decided to install a new ROM. I decided to go with CynanogenMod but the problem is my device is not listed in the supported devices directory.
I think my device has the minimum requirements to run the OS.
I would like to know if it will be better to install the CyanogenMod or just leave it with kitkat or maybe install some other mods that my tab can support?

I'm working on porting TWRP and LineageOS7.1.1 to the 828..Seeking developers to assist..PM if interested
UPDATE :: JIAYU S3+ is almost the exact same phone and it has Lineage OS.It will work as a base ROM.
Let me know (or report the thread) when the ROM is ready (we can then re-open), as we don't support development threads that have no end result.
Thank you.

Hello,
I'm new in this forum.I want some help from developers. I'm using Xiaomi Redmi 5(rosy) which has Snapdragan 450 chipset. It comes with Android version 7.1.2 (Nougat). I want to upgrade to Android 8(Oreo) so I downloaded an Unofficial Build of Lineage OS 15.1 for my device. But after flashing I found camera,fingerprint sensor and all other sensors are not working . After booting it shows "A vendor image mismatch has been detected. Typically this means your vendor image is out of date. " . I don't know why it's showing this message.
I want to fix those bugs.How can I do that ?
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my bad English

I don't have this device but, the following area of the forum is specific to your device.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-5
With that guidance...
Purely as a personal opinion, I would really doubt that someone would be able to support a development that they didn't develop on top of your having an Unofficial release of the LineageOS 15.1 (rosy) when there's nothing on the forum regarding this release. Also, i had tried to perform a quick search to locate this using a few methods and was unable to locate anything to even refer you to.
I'm not stating that "Nobody" will help you out but, as a developer myself, I just feel that you would have a hard time to obtain assistance.
This is why I can only refer you to the link above that's specific to your device.
I wish you the best of luck!
