Hi all,
I've a question for you guys.
I've a SG3 (i9300), I'd like to know if using the cyanogen device tree for my device (located here) is possible to build AOSP source code.
if yes, then it looks like that would be possible to compile Lollipop AOSP for my device.. am I right ?
Thank you very much.
Cyanogen IS AOSP... Lol. Its AOSP with added features. If that's not an Android 5.0 lollipop kernel source, then it won't boot out of the box. Your best bet would be to get some Android 4.4 kernel source and do ramdisk edits and what not needed to get an Android 5.0 ROM booting. Alternatively, if your device is CM supported, I know they were talking about releasing CM12 soon, you could just hold out to see if your device is supported. Outside of CM, many custom ROMs (AOKP, Pacman, etc.) Take it upon themselves to release ROMs as well. Example: PACman had a 4.4 custom ROM out and in circulation, even before cyanogenmod, so u never know!

Hello, thanks for your answer.
I'd like to know this only for learning purpose, I'm not going to compile the AOSP
What I don't understand, is why adding the device tree to the lollipop AOSP is not sufficient to boot out of the box, can you please explain this in details ? Many thanks.
I've seen some aosp based roms with tons of nice features but i've yet to see a pure aosp rom.
so is anyone willing to create a working pure aosp rom? (yes i've seen the aosp thread but critical things dont work)
thanks!:good:
It takes some time to build a rom from the ground up... So if you'll just wait that AOSP rom will work as well as a CM13 rom.
Try the latest Tesla rom, Its aosp based.

1.cloned DU sources android N based
2.cloned hydrogen kernel to Kernel/xiaomi/msm8956
3.cloned hydrogen device tree to device xiaomi/hydrogen
4.cloned hydrogen device tree to device xiaomi/msm8956-common
5.renamed linage.mk to du.mk
6.changed in AndroidProduct.mk to du.mk
7.cloned vendors to vendor/xiaomi/hydrogen
8.added lunch combo in vendorsetup.sh
9.i dont know anything about caf but still i cloned all of them media audio ril and others

Hi Guys I have a Samsung GA5 2016 running GeForce V5 custom rom
I want to port Lineage OS 14.1 to my device. I read many other threads in xda but none worked for me with stock or geforce rom can someone teach me how to port lineage os 14.1 to my device if thats possible
The touchwiz rom is pretty garbage so I want to have stock rom pls help me
Greetings,
I have several questions about custom ROMs like lineageOS etc.
I have an old and cheap Huawei Y540 and it only runs Android 4.4
So i thought maybe i can install a custom ROM instead of buying a new phone.
1. Why does a custom rom not run on all devices? I thought they are based on linux which handles the hardware <-> software requests?
2. What happens when i install LineageOS or Resurrection Remix on my device? (Note: my device is not supported)
3. I found guides like the one you can find in google when you look for "build lineageos rom for any device" which is named "How to Build Lineageos rom for any android device Easily ! {Full guide}" (Sorry i'm not allowed to post links) to build the lineageOs for my device. Do you know if any/many bugs will occure if i try that for my device?
Regards, Vincent
