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

[HELP] [ROM-PORTING] Could I take any rom as my port rom?
Could I take any ROM as my 'port ROM' or is it supposed to be device specific? Could I take a Ressurection Remix ROM based on mm which was ported to my device by someone else as my base and Lineage OS 14.1 (of any device) as my 'port'?

In general, no. You need a lot of custom stuff in the ROM (i.e. system image) which is specific to your device model. You can't mix and match from ROMs built for different devices.
You could use the ROM made for your device as base but the port ROM to be chosen must have same soc and specification similar to your device.
Also the kernel version must be same for both the roms
Hi all,
I want to build my first rom. I'm a software developer (Java and Web), but my Linux knowledge is somewhat intermediate.
I have a Moto G4 Plus laying around. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Downloaded the AOSP source from Google for android-7.0.0_r15 (Nougat)
2. Found the Kernel Source for the Moto G4 Plus (Nougat)
I'm stuck at adding the device's kernel source to the AOSP source. How do I combine the two?
Here's the link for the kernel source: https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/releases/tag/MMI-NPJS25.93-14-10
I've tried looking this up online but the results are very limited.
As far as I understand this kernel source provides everything I need to make the ROM compatible with my device, right?
Could someone point me to the right direction?
Much appreciated.

Hello, thank you for creating a custom ROM. My wife uses Lenovo Phab Plus with stock ROM 5.1.1, but it is laggy even after a factory reset. How is the smoothness of this custom ROM? Can it be used as a daily driver? (Sorry, I cannot just try it because it is not mine)

Sorry for the late reply, everything works fine except for Camera, GPS seems to be funky. It is pretty smooth, much better than the stock ROM.

No it won't, it needs the vendor implementation to work too.
Hello i am on XDA today for ask you how i can update my device to more recent android like android 9 or 10 because mine ( umidigi one pro ) is on android 8.1 oreo and no update is avaible.
So i want like android 9 to get the last features, gesture, ui and security. But my device don't have any custom rom which support it.

So please tell me how i can do or who i can tell for do this.
This tread can help some people like me
You might want to start by building an AOSP ROM for your device. Here's some info to get you started.
October 11, EDIT:
I have changed the headline to A13, because with he base of this rom you can flash LeOS-T (A13) on the pad. I'm sing it since a week without any issue.
Download of the GSI https://leos-cloud.de/s/JFrFgLgSSTEMtmL?path=/LeOS-T-beta
flashing instructions here: https://gitlab.com/leos1/leos-wiki/-/wikis/Flashing-Instructions/Mi-Pad-4
enjoy Android 13 on your Pad 4 )
_____________________________________________________________________________
This is an full ungoogled LeOS-S build for the Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 (clover), based on Lineage19.1.
LeOS includes a special MicroG version. With LeOS and this MicroG version you wont be able to run google apps, no device registration, no add of a google account, no google push messages.
LeOS is designed for users which have said goodbye to google.
LeOS includes only an f-droid client, file manager and phone app. So everyone can install his favorite (FOSS) apps.
EDIT: after you are running this rom, you can flash A12.1 and A13 GSI on clover.
A13 beta you will find here https://leos-cloud.de/s/JFrFgLgSSTEMtmL

If you are a googlfree user, you don't need gapps.
If you are needing gapps you are wrong with LeOS. Then you should use the standard LOS19.1 rom. There you can install all these spying apps like gapps

Does this rom inherit the bugs of LOS 19.1 unofficial, or is this Source built?
Im interested in this rom, as a user of Calyxos with microG
Although I cant relock the bootloader, i guess this is somewhat better compare to vanilla LOS.
Thanks.

LeOS-19.1 is based on LOS29.1
LeOS-S isbased on latest AOSP sources
no additional bug removal.
Relock a bootloader is not recommend. In most cases you will loose all your data. Relock bootloader is, as far as,I know only eorking on some pixel devices and Fairphone
Hi,
thanks for your work, i want to give it a try. I am looking for an actual ROM for my MIPAD4 which gets security patches microg integration. So i found yours. Unfortunately i cant find any flashable zip on your new Server. Where can i find these files?
It would be nice to get this ROM.
THX a lot and best regards
