Hi all,
The purpose of this thread is to coordinate our efforts trying to build CM11 for LG L7 II series.
Here we will share ideas, distribute our tasks and basically do whatever we can to have CM11 running as fast and as reliably as possible on our beloved device.
Next thing I believe should be a plan on how to kick off this project. This Wiki page (thanks @kalel29) is probably a good start, but we need to start rolling it. Will be glad to hear any other suggestions from anyone with more experience lifting up such a task.
Edit:
ROMs are ready. Here are the official threads for CM11 L7 II devices (by weritos):
CM11 for L7 II single SIM (p710/p712/p713/p714)
CM11 for L7 II dual SIM (p715/p716)
What all "wannabe-developers" must set up is definitely a Linux workbench, like it is just written in THIS thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302780
This is an all-round starter for everyone I think, also, let me share my personal experience with you - just be very-very careful when installing Linux next to Windows - I losed all my personal data because of some partition details gone wrong.
An other point, is that what we all have seen lately, and sadly: without sharing the sources of our work, the project will be closed by XDA admins, that's what we've seen with the custom kernel of airodsas, and the CM10 of weritos. So whatever we've done, we must synchronize that onto the team's GitHub.
That's all what should be done in the first place, I think. Also, I'd like to offer my graphic skills to make an elegant look to the team, I mean banners, logo, and some other fancy stuff
Maybe this serves you

Thanks. This is for CM10.2. However, I guess that the right way to go is to merge the Vendor/HW dependent stuff from official LG KK into CM11.

Thanks for the useful link. Was going to setup an additional PC with Ubuntu at home next week. Now there are few additional step to perform there.
Ok then,i think that we need to its sync the team in order to work better,by putting schedules or something,also time zones will be important

Alright then!
So first, we need to see who's on our team, and what each one can contribute.
We need to form the strategy of how to attack this task.
We should allow a few days (I suggest until Monday-Tuesday) for people to setup their development environment (shifty's link is a good starting point). Everyone here also need to setup a github account, as the CM sources are on github.
As for me: I don't have experience building ROMs or developing Android apps, but I do have experience in Linux development (including scripting and a bit of workstation administration). Ready to help any way I can. TZ is GMT+2.
Time zone over here is -6 GMT

I would like to work for this project. I had some knowledge about building roms. And I already got a pc with Linux. So now anyone of us should lead this project and have to assist others and allocate the task for the members. And importantly everyone should update status everyday and make this thread active.

My Cyrillic alphabeth reading ain't the best, but I believe it shows a CM11 for L7 II here, which is the purpose of this whole thread. Would you mind sharing it with the people here?

@all the coders
The community has people with very good coding skills (we know them and they know them each-other), so why you(we) do not concentrate your(our) skills and work on one big open-source app. The synergetic (network) effects would make it possible to build and later host a stable and all included community-based-open-source-group-coded app!
We have so many pseudo-proprietary based tools:
ROM-Kitchen, Hermes ROM Koch, nbhextract, et cetera...
Is think the best would be, to set up something like an open-source-project. - we can host the codesnippets on a subversion or cvs directory or something else to manage the distributed progress.
The efforts would be much bigger and come much faster, that should be clear for everybody.
So please let me know and i will set up such a directory!
Maybe pof can set up a poll for this - so we can get a democracy-based decision!
AFAIK this would be the first joined forces XDA-Developers development and i think it is realy the time for it!
And what are you waiting for ? Start development of this one big open-source app by yourself right now. And others would join if they find it interesting.

There is sourceforge for it. And there was cvs rep on xda-developers. If you going to host another - that's good. But how it relates to starting of development of "a stable and all included community-based-open-source-group-coded app" ?
Join the svn...

svn is in the first place code hosted there. No code == nothing to join.
Well, e.g. dutty could host his code in there, if he wants; olipro could host his code in there, if he wants; like all the others.
that would be good start.
Then merge the code and bring up new features... like guis (i would do that e.g.)
And yes, i can not host any code because i did not wrote something and i do not want to decompile the versions we have, because of ip, the developer should agree with it first.
besides this is just an idea, but reading your posts it seems this idea is not very welcome.
i wrote something like this to a mod here 2 weeks ago, did not got an answer, so at all i think it could really be a bad idea - however maybe some others will say somthing about it.

I personally think it's a great idea! It's just too bad I'm not a developer; I wish I could help!
But yes, I believe that if everyone here worked together on a project, the results could be wonderful. I guess that doesn't mean much since I don't have the skills needed to contribute, but it still sounds ideal.
Des I Think Apokryphus Is Main Aim Is An Open Source ROM Kitchen.
With The Issue That ahok_hk Had With Olipro About Him Releasing A Ported Version Of His Software, I Think He Sees The Coders Working Against Each Other (Or At Least Being Rivals). And Wants Everyone To Play Nice To Create One Kitchen That Is Fast And Simple. Which Means That It Has To Be Open Source So Everyone Can Make Reccomendations On How To Update The Software.

Exactly, but not only for recommendation also for modifying the software, thats the main goal - joined people can add their own lines of code to provide the stability or usability for instance.
i hope i did not got you wrong, what means that i think you meant with update not modifying. but in case of that is the meaning i totaly agree with your opinion.
sorry but i am not a native speaker and sometimes i have got some problem with the meaning of the translations.
see quine, in word and object, chapter 2 about the indeterminacy of translation.

I must stress that everyone has their rights for their own intellectual property because the have created them using many many hours of effort. And I was not saying that I am not going to release the code. But just not right now coz it is still in beta and many fixes/function will be added. And there is not such "The Coders Working Against Each Other" in my mine at all. Coders should "respect" each other.
For the case of Olipro, he not only stole and released the code "without my prior agreement", but still releasing it after I suggested him to just put those code in his kitchen.
On the other hand, dutty is good. Why? because he also wanted to use the souce code of aChef, and he did ask me before he wants to put it in his kitchen.
BTW, originally I have successfully added many new functions to aChef that no one has done/thought before, but I see no point to release them or to continue my effort now.
Anyway every one has their own thoughts about intellectual proterty. And I am not going to discuss here anymore. Good luck and Good bye to all.
it's a port... it's not your code, you didn't license your code, and you did not say anywhere that anyone was forbidden from creating a derivative work, I made it to benefit the community, if you want to let ego get in the way, that's your problem buddy, not mine.
while I reconize the merrits of open source, I think people should respect (an appreciate) the hard work that people have done. The people in this forum have made some wonderful software, provided it to us free of charge. If they want to put their hard work out there in an open source form, that's great, if not, that's also great - it should be their choice with no pressure.) I've not even seen anybody complain about their software being incorperated into other programs - they've just asked that you respect their IP which in my opinion is perfectly fair.
If you'd like something put into opensource, write a nice letter suggesting it with no pressure, and then leave it to the developer. If they want to they will, if not, simply thank them for their hard work an appreciate the product they've provided for you. If you push people who don't want to release it for whatever their reason, you'll alienate them and they'll cease development which would be a detrament to everybody!
<steps down off soapbox>Sorry for my pointless ramblings - please, continue ignoring me!

Hello,
So I'm running a Nexus 4 with C-RoM on it. Before hand I was using Nexus5Experience, but had a few problems with it and I liked the features in C-RoM. However, C-RoM has stopped support for Halo. I was wondering if it was possible if someone could tell me a way to put Halo into C-RoM as I loved using it in N5X. If someone can lead me to a few guides to doing something like this, even if it's not specific to Halo. Thank you!

I've seen it, and it's rather crap compared to the actual Halo. I'd much rather try to port halo into C-RoM. It much be possible if C-RoM use to include Halo.

If you're willing to work from source then it's possible, but the Halo commits are all over the place and it's a rather large project, so it'd be very difficult. You might be able to find a dev willing to help.

Praise this man.
He did it!
OT:
Even though it is very inconvenient for me that wifi is not working, I will definitely test this rom.
Keep up the good work man!
EDIT:
I just tested it and man it is fast and smooth. Big improvement over stock! Because of the fact that wifi doesnt work atm I could not try everything but everything worked except Apollo( the cm music app) didnt want to play my music, maybe thats a problem on my side but idk, and the keyboard was all bugged and laggy. I suggest you to just put in the stock google keyboard inplace for the keyboard app thats now on it. I think most the people would like it more over the keyboard app you put in it.
If you fix the wifi issues I will test again and I will use it as my daily driver.
Good job man!
Pretty awesome!
The rom is running pretty smooth and no lag at all!
Great work man!
I found some bug that you can work on:
-Keyboard completely buggy - I instaled Android AOKP keyborard but the bug persisted. I try to use and I noticed that the keymap is ok, but background is bigger than normal.
-Audio jacker does not redirect the sound correctly, when there is a plug in the jack, it makes the speaker sound lower, but does not redirect the sound to headphone.
-Bluetooth headset connects and works like a charm, but there is no bass sound.
-menu soft key does not work correctly. it does the same as back button.
without wifi working, i couldn't check anything else...
I'd like to thank you again for porting this rom, i've been waiting for it since i bought this p714!
I'll be waiting for any updates, i'll test it as fast as possible and post a feedback for you.
cm10
Omitted the language pack, I hope that the final version to be corrected, all praise for the effort about roma ..
This Rom is only for the dual version or is also available in P710 version? can you help me? I need a Rom from P710 because I do not think will get update. It look great. Follow like this, I will be expecting for the official version :good:
im glad to see this thread,,, but i'm still waiting for the fix. thanks
Why you use Nova Launcher instead the Google one?
Despite it,
HOORAY!!! THANK YOU MAN!
mods please move to original development thread,,, well done OP i was just about to start trying for this right nwo, but you beat me to it.
ALSO please show your sources as per GPL

You are perfectly legally able to sell something under GPL (yes, for money) given that you provide the source code together with binary release. Same rule applies when you provide binary for free - you have to provide the source code as well.

He finds it very weird that you force people to donate.
The way it usually works is that the developer posts a fully working rom and then people who like it can donate.
People are not going to donate to some guy on the internet who says he will finish something if you donate.
It is like early access. The developer can always just get away with the money and never finish the rom.
TL;DR
You will get donations if you have finished the rom, not before you have finished it.

Yes, you are obliged to give Linux Kernel source for the release you are providing - under GPL. If you fail to do that you are in breach of the license and will face the consequences.
Regarding other android specific stuff - since those are Apache license mostly you don't have to provide sources. Linux kernel is not apache license though.

Per GPLv2 and XDA requirements source code needs to be posted for the kernel. Please do so.
Also per XDA rules donations are ONLY in appreciation for work given. There can be no asking of donations in the promise of future releases.
Moved to Android Development for now. When source is provided it can be moved to OD ONLY until an official CM10 is released then it will be moved to AD again. If this is updated to CM11, there already is an unofficial CM11 in OD so this will be moved to AD in that case too.

Trying to do a port for cm11. Plus device tree for this device is a mess and have been working on trying to clean it up. Not going to be home for a few days due to family problems so I can't do anything till then. May need some help from some devs tho.. the last error I came up to was a busybox error while compiling kernel. Get more info soon

You should ban, you are very obnoxious. The Rules of xda says that you MUST put the source code, because Android is OPEN SOURCE, so it's free, anyone can modify it as he wants and here
And then YOU CAN NOT write: Works suspended due to lack of donations, everyone is free.

He should not be, under any circumsrances, banned, he definetly has done something very important and outstanding by creating CM. As soon as he'll provide the sources it all will be fine. Greeding is not nice, but let's keep the topic clean from anything not related to the development, period.
hello mates,
i am a big fan of aospa aka paranoid android roms,
so sad that it isnt available for kiwi yet,
i dont know y, is there some limitations with our device? or if the devs havent tried it yet??
though im not bad at coding, i have zero experience on building roms, i dont even know how to..
if not, iam requesting any dev to make a port or please build one for our device, it will be the best..:good::fingers-crossed:

Wrong thread. But @mumith3 is on it.
Sent from my Galaxy Tab 3 using XDA Labs
I understand the question as to why it hasn't been done yet, but requesting that somebody else takes on the task of building it just because YOU want it done but dont want to learn how to port it is quite unnecessary. I hope I'm not sounding like a dck telling you this. Not my intention.

i understand your intention, but im not ordering anything here, i just wanted to know the reason, y it hasnt built yet, and no its not just because I want it, i just requested someone to build it..and if someone does, its not only me whosw gonna download the rom, everyone would love PA, thats the most faourite rom of alot of ppl, including me,
i just heard devs saying its not any easy task to build one, because theres some complexity,
so i thought may be by creating this thread, devs will discuss the problems and they can come up with the build together...
and nope bro, you didnt sound like dck .. i too hope i didnt sound like one,:good:

hello mates,
i am a big fan of aospa aka paranoid android roms,
so sad that it isnt available for kiwi yet,
i dont know y, is there some limitations with our device? or if the devs havent tried it yet??
though im not bad at coding, i have zero experience on building roms, i dont even know how to..
if not, iam requesting any dev to make a port or please build one for our device, it will be the best..:good::fingers-crossed:

Hi mates,
I tried to work on AOSPA & Screw'd AOSP, Both are awesome IMO. But sadly they are purely based on AOSP, & for AOSP, source does lack some parts such as framework_av & such & pretty weird vendor tree formatting As my master @yuweng warned me & bro @gopinaidu77 shared his experiences of his trials, I found it tricky even only looking at the sources
Thus I'll be kinda dropping them for now, leave them as side projects on which I hope I will keep tinkering ( & bothering master yuweng & bro gopi when i'm stuck ) whenever I get time.
In the mean time, I'm taking little break, My job is giving me a hard time & semester finals will be ongoing from tomorrow, :crying:
I hope cm14.1 comes within January :fingers-crossed:
So we can work on more sweet treats
p.s. pray for me mates, I suck at marketing related subjects :crying:

Bro if someone was interested in maintainig/building rom for 5x without coding knowledge, where do you suggest should one start?? and what do you think are the basic requirements at the beginner level??? I know it is unrelated to title of the thread but as brother @thilak devraj suggested his intention was to get the AOSPA project discussed, and i am a fellow enthusiast and want to start somewhere in exploring this project and enriching myself with the knowledge, because as far as i understand, you have helped @mumith3 with his projects, which are rock solid and super smooth, so can you point me in the correct direction, if its not too much trouble??

Mate,
First clear your conceptions of build environment, manifests & use of gits. You'll find plenty explanations in google & xda uni.
then start with setting up build machine( I'll suggest a decent config with bbqlinux installed)
then start with building CM as there is a official step by step guide in CM website for kiwi AKA Honor 5X.
when you're familiar with all... move to other roms.
we'll be always glad to help
happy learning!

I am at xda university at present and man these guys are thorough!! They have made it extremely simple even for a beginner like me, i know it's a tough ask but i do want to learn in the most sincerest way possible, hope everything goes according to plan, and even if it doesn't, i believe in the community and help it extends to supernoobs like myself, let's see where it takes me.:fingers-crossed:
well you can be able to make AOSPA on nougat now most probably. Because Alex and other developers has stopped working on Marshmallow. So the team can help in get away with the building errors. But since we are still now marshmallow they won't going to help. or Maybe they will. Can't say. At paranoid things these moves slowly moving to nougat. Well since none of the member has device in team. So we are not officially supported. The biggest reason why HONOR 5x never make it to other developers because of Kenzo was launched by Xiaomi. Far better in specifications. But we are still hopeful. Exodus will halting development too for a while. Issues with developers. The last Vanir is also has issues. Maintaining so many devices is a heck of trouble for few developers. Since Vanir is based on CM so we are far away from them.
Pure Code Aurora Caf was never possible until some developer with coding skills come. You need to code and make everything from scratch. In that case things will not coming from even CM. You have device specific device trees. It is huge pain in ass. Now as Paranoid is going to pure AOSP if i remember right. They going to use few things like cm device trees just. Else like exodus paranoid is known for writing their own apps and stuff...

No worries man. I wish you all the best in your job and in your exams.

I'm really digging the dev community here. Shouts out to crpalmer jsbeyond gopi mumith and everybody else im forgetting. And just remember, be always grateful for their work. We could have ended up with no development if we chose a different phone. For example my last phone the HTC desire 626s. Go find the desire 626 forum on XDA to see what I mean. Development just doesn't always happen. Which is why when I see somebody request certain ROMs it irks me a little
yes , i feel lucky to have those devs, but im sad we alredy lost many of them..
Hi,
I am wondering if there is a common way on this forum to express support for the development of a specific custom ROM for a phone? Is there a commonly accepted way to do this? (Came here to see if I could +1 a LineageOs thread for the Zenfone 9)

haha is this a +1 of my wish to be able to give a +1 ?
Hey mate,
I was thinking to contact developers and pay them to build lineage OS and make it official!
Or the other alternative is Learn how to build it and submit it for review on LOS website..
If you have any suggestions?
cool, no idea how to go about that, but I would be happy to contribute as well. I'm sure others would be too - I am on a forum where there are multiple threads dedicated to finding a good small deGoogled phone (community.e.foundation). There must be a place where people can put up amounts for a development like this, right? Sort of like a Kickstarter for a bit of development? I will ask on the other forum too

The problem with LineageOS is that when there is no more maintainer for a specific model the phone just goes to rubbish, no more security patch... same for the other custom rom... eOS depends on LOS repositories and even if lineage stop supporting a specific device eOS will keep updating their all supported devices... That's why I really like eOS. It doesn't matter if some features are unavailable... a phone is supposed to be used for call, text. Nowadays, everything seems to be sophisticated however it doesn't need to be... I'll start asking some recognised developers if they are willing to work on a LOS build for the zf9 for some money participation... maybe start a crowdfunding of an alternative without fraud!!
Bump
Hi bro,
Sorry got no time at the moment I ended up using a one plus 6 with eOS... I haven't started anything yet. I might need some help to organise something about crowdfunding..
Good luck and let us know if you have some ideas. Thank's
