CyanogenMod Shut Down, ROM continuing as LineageOS - Verizon Galaxy S 5 General

I looked through the threads and didn't see any post about this, so for anyone who isn't aware:
Im running CM 14 on my device and today I just realized there hasnt been any nightly updates since December. Well turns out there is no more CyanogenMod
But the good news is the developers decided to create their own fork if the project and continue the updates.
Here's a link to the blog post: http://lineageos.org/Yes-this-is-us/

CM12 - Just sharing - D850 - Nightlies

Disclaimer: I did not contribute or help with development of this build so don't thank me, don't donate to me, and don't ask questions concerning problems with the build/ROM. My builds are pure CM12 no cherry-picks and no flare. I literally run three commands in a window and out pops the build in 20 minutes so no hard work on my end. Mods is this a problem and/or not helpful delete this.

We do have official Cm12. So this would be identical or at least as close as it could possible get ................

You are correct and it should be identical. I am just building from source and sharing.
Gotcha

Sorry about the late upload 12/14 nightly is ready to go.
Please post a link to the kernel source of the kernel included in your build as per GPLv2 and XDA requirements.
Thanks! And thanks for your contributions.

Official Cyanogenmod for Xiaomi Mi4i Support on Cyanogenmod Forums

I beg u guys to please open a thread for Mi4i nightly build on Cyanogenmod forums and discuss problems with the build over there coz the devs won't come here to see what the problems are. :fingers-crossed:

The people who make CyanogenMOD are not the ones supporting this device
Cyanogenmod forums are even less visible and it is a hassle to keep track of two forums at once
The Official Builds are currently of CM13
An [OFFICIAL] thread for CM13 will be made by @Rohan purohit soon.
News about CM14 will be out when it will be. Rule #1 of custom ROM development, NO ETA.
And finally, VoLTE can NOT be enabled without updated modem firmware, from Xiaomi, with VoLTE support. No VoLTE unless Xiaomi wants to give us VoLTE. The End of Discussion.
If not me, listen to the guy who started CyanogenMOD itself: https://twitter.com/cyanogen/status/790674207369678848

Will community continue to develop to this phone after cyanogenmod is done in 6 days?

Will community continue to develop to this phone after cyanogenmod is done in 6 days? As some of you may know Cyanogen inc had lots of issues so they decided to shutdown the company after 7 years of work. Some of the official devs started to tease a cyanogenmod reborn, named Lineage OS. You can find them on twitter, facebook, google+ and their new site lineageos.org . The site is still wip but i hope that Lineage OS will be developed for this phone and i dont have to throw my phone off the window just cause i dont have the latest update
As the source code will still available and the team is willing to continue, I see no reason for stopping, as long as our device maintainers support this device. But it may slow down a bit for a while, it's been a major transition after all. And rest of the custom ROMs might get affected too. Better to stay tuned in every thread possible, ours is not so big

youre right. i guess ill make sure im in the latest nightly in the next days if anything happens
The question is will CyanogenMod continue to live now that they have lost all support from Cyanogen, including build servers, monetary, and technical support... CyanogenMod will be renamed to LineageOS... The biggest problem is all development on Moto G 2015 (and many other Moto devices) is based on CyanogenMod, and there is no other source at this time. How will that play out? We don't know yet...
A well formed (and informed) answer from Stack Exchange's Android Enthusiast group:
CM's own blog is unreachable now, but XDA-Developers already summed it up and clarified some important bits:
All monetary and infrastructural support for CyanogenMod from Cyanogen Inc. will cease. -> CyanogenMod will no longer receive nightly builds after December 31st... unless the team finds another host to build nightlies.
The CyanogenMod team will not continue official development on the project.
CyanogenMod will rebrand as LineageOS.
Since it's clear that Cyngn is going in a new direction, Cyanogen OS will almost certainly have no future, since it's not community-driven in the first place. CyanogenMod, on the other hand, will live a bit longer, until Lineage dawns (or fails).

Wasn't Omnirom a fork of CM after the creation of Cyanogen Inc? As I recall all the developers were upset over going commercial and the future of cyanogenmod. Lineage OS would in essence be a fork of Cyanogenmod as well. I think it will really depend on whether they can find funding for some build infrastructure and how many developers jump on board.

The repositories are being mirrored (probably 'forked' is the correct term) into linageOS so I think we'll have a copy of our source code. And they said the source code for CM would still be available.

BTW, it isn't ending on Dec 31st like most people thought... it's ending prior to Dec 31st... They lost DNS and Jenkins yesterday, the blog is gone (so no reference to the official posts), official Cyanogen and CyanogenMod websites are down, and probably more that I haven't noticed mentioned yet are gone already.
But https://download.cyanogenmod.org is still live.
What would be the status of other custom roms that are based on cyanogenmod. Would they be affected ?

Of course...ALL ROMs for this device, except stock based ones, use the CM device tree and base code... Will LineageOS replace that? Right now it appears that way but time will tell.
To be honest, if CM/LineageOS doesn't make it... Probably 80℅ of all ROMs out there will disappear as we know them today, we really don't know the long-term effects this will have on the ROM community.
Some dumb questions:
1. LineageOS is the same team as CM?
2. There's a release date for the lineageOS and it will be compatible with moto g 2015?
3. To keep updated is better to wait or change to an AOSP based rom since AOSP will still be releasing?

1. Yes, to a point... for more information look at http://lineageos.org/Yes-this-is-us/
2. We don't know yet, they do not have build servers at the moment
3. I would wait, there is little chance of getting a working AOSP device tree at this time, but we will just have to wait and see.
The point is, right now we don't know exactly how this is all going to play out... we need to have patience and just see what happens.

Late to the party (still on Cyanogen 13), anyone have experimental LineageOS build?

First time posting, hopefully I posted in the right section. My unrooted photon q is currently on Cyanogenmod 13 (which is the latest one for photon q as far as i know), and I would like to upgrade to LineageOS without losing my apps, data, settings, etc. I know early on the LineageOS site had experimental migration lineageos builds that let users flash to from cyanogenmod, and then to an official lineageos so as to not lose anything, but those builds are long since gone now from the site. Does anyone here happen to have an experimental migration LineageOS build for photon q that they could give me? (I can't root my phone for certain reasons, so I can't save everything with titanium backup)
Off-topic question: does a cyanogenmod 14/14.1 build for photon q exist? I tried looking for it online but can't find anything, so I'm guessing cyanogen photon q builds stopped at 13.0.
