This thread is supposed to look for ideas and find people, who are interested in a CM 12.1 project for the LG L7 II. I'm sure I'm not the only one here, who would make it, so here we could talk about this project. Yes, the performance is not the best, but we could make it ready for daily use. Our "ancestor" device LG L7 has CM 12.1 too, so I thought, why doesn't our device have it?
Together we could make it usable(those, who want to work with me).
Every help with this project is appreciated
Edit: @neutrondev
Do you still have the sources of the lollipop rom you made to boot? It would be very helpful. If not then it's okay
I notice that none writes on this thread... But I think that cm 12.1 will be terrible on our phone. Cm 11 is slow, we know, cm 12 could be interesting to try a couple of hour but not for daily use. This is my opinion and I open the discussion . I want to try lollipop on my l7ii but I have no knowledge on building and I understand that it won't work well in any case.
Sorry for my bad English
Device:
LG l7 2 p710 ROM CyanogenMod 10.2 (4.3.1 )
LG l3 e 400 ROM optimus 1.5 (4.0.4)
Samsung galaxy tab 4 8.0 ROM stock (4.4.2)
First of all, stock kitkat isn't that bad if you remove all bloatware and install greenify.
Just sayn.
Ps: Using cm 10.2 on lg p710 at the moment for more freedom to make the phone look like mine.

It's theoretically available to build CM 12 for our L7-ll. But first of all it will be a bit more laggy than CM 11,and secondly - the main problem - it will be hungry about battery. Neutrondev is leaving LG L as he wrote in topic about his CM 11,so let's wait if Weritos will do smth about 12'1.
Well I deleted all sources of CM12.1. Cm12 is not straight forward you need to update our kernel's msm fb, ion and kgsl from CAF. Performance is not worth it so I quit all work. I am leaving the scene of L Series very soon. Sorry.

Very bad idea because:
Too high battery Drain for L7ii, maybe 3 Hours Screen on Time
The ART needs much storage, for example Chrome Beta needs 110 MB
Too less CPU Power: Animations are not smooth, many UI Laggs
You must Port ACDB System (very hard)
LPA decode is bad with CM 12.1
New Low Latency Player does not support this very old chipset
CyanogenMod 12 for lg l7x
CyanogenMod 12 will run perfect to lg lg l7ii L7X or as the Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo already has CyanogenMod 12.1 and that the terminal has a 800 MHz processor and 512 of RAM
I CM12 think would be very good for our terminal

I believe it's not as simple as comparing megahertz and megabytes. Besides, there's no one to maintain the device since neutrondev left the scene a while back. His CM 10.2 is perfect for single sim L7 IIs. There are CM 11 roms around the development sections even though they have their bugs as well. This is as far as this device goes. It's not that popular anyway. I myself am thinking of selling my P710 and buying something better.
Huawei Y300,based on Qualcomm MSM8225 and equipped with ROM 4GB and RAM 512MB has not only CyanogenMod 12.1 but even CyanogenMod 13. So,the main problem is - nobody to compile ROM.
hey @weritos i think u can be useful for this... i really want cm12 on our lg p715 and i hope that u can do it. i love ur cm11 roms, specially pac-man.
Hey guys,
I was researching yesterday about other phones with the same res and chip for a cm port maybe. Then I finally found the SONY XPERIA E3. This phone has the same resolution of the US variant of the desire 610 (480*854) and houses a snapdragon 400. And the XPERIA E3 has an unofficial build of cm12. I'm no dev, but we already have slimkat (i belive you already need a custom rom to port) and the E3 has the same specs (res and chip) AND CM12. So if there is any dev that knows how to port, please give it a shot. We already have a 4.4.4 rom, and I would love to see cm12 on our device. And if there is a dev who is willing to port it, take your time.
Here is the link to slimkat for us:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-610/development/rom-slim-a3ul-4-4-4-build-9-0-t3149308
And is cm12 for the E3:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-e3/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-d2203-t3079922
There is also another 5.x.x based rom for the e3:

Hi.
Does anyone know of any Custom ROMs for HP 7 Voice Tab 1351ra and HTC Desire 820s Dual SIm ?
I searched online but couldn't find any 5.1 and 6.0 ROMs for the above devices.
Also there are no CM entries for these two devices.
SInce the stock ROMs won't be made available by the companies for these devices, Custom ROMs are the best option to upgrade my Android.
Regards
I am currently on stock MIUI but I came from a Nexus and prefer stock android. The phone is on MIUI 9 which is based on Android 7.0. Am I right in thinking that the kernal I am currently using will only work with a ROM based on android 7.0? If I pick a 8.0 ROM can I use my existing stock kernal or do I need to update the kernal?
I fancy moving to LineageOS and I see I can pick LineageOS 14.1 (based on android 7.0) or LineageOS 15 (based on android 8.0).
Thanks.
Every custom rom including miui, have their own kernel source, you need not worry about the kernel used in a particular rom, because they are not cross supported. Miui's kernel is not supported by lineage and lineage's kernel is not supported by miui. Only custom kernel formed by merged source code support both of em. What exactly is your purpose?
Ahh so each custom rom also includes a new kernel, I hadnt realised that.
I havent rooted a phone since my ZTE Blade about 7 years ago, since then I have had Nexus phones and havent needed to change anything. I did update kernel then and my phone signal suffered so I wanted to avoid updating my kernel. I understand that the kernel contains the 'drivers' for all the components in the phone and I didnt fancy messing with them but seems I have to.....
Thanks for your input...
