Setting up a device tree a5 2017 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Since the A520F is new there is no device three to build a rr rom or lineage OS.
There is no recent documentation, and in the newer branches there is no makevendor.sh in the source of lineage OS.
So it seems to it is impossible to build a unofficial lineage OS or make a device tree and build cm14 from the Samsung OS files.
Can someone help me out of this?
I got the kernel source from Samsung open source and platform.tar

How to develop and write patches to android 5.0.2 and lineage os 14.1 for samsung a3

Hello,
I am new to android development. How do I get the source code for my specific device SM-A300H and write a patch for it.I want to enable "in band ringtones" for my phone and found some source code here:
android-review.googlesource.com/#/c/333111/
So in an attempt to enable inband I flashed my galaxy a3 with lineage OS- android 7.1.2 (I can roll back to 5.0.2 ROM if needed). So how do I write patches on android and do custom builds. It appears that Lineage OS code if fully based on java and the stock android code I found in the above link has some .cc files. I have basic programming experience in windows (little linux as well). Someone please guide me, I want to learn this.

I want to start building my own ROM HELP !!

I also want to build a custom ROM for our LeMax 2
where do i find a guide or support ?
please suggest !
Heyyo, do you have a preferred custom ROM base? If not you could always just resume the work that andr68rus was doing with OmniROM or Dirty Unicorns or Paranoid Android as prime examples. Those would be the easiest ones to get new builds up and going for since they already have working device tree, kernel and vendor blobs.

1nfrag also discontinued his work on Nougat so you could always check out his stuff for Nougat if you wish on GitHub
Otherwise if you want Oreo? Shivatejapeddi and 1nfrag on GitHub have work in progress and the more help the merrier

There's also been some work done on LineageOS 15.1 by moto999999, KuranKaname and I for the Le Max 2 but still needs lots of work too

Hi,
I'm currently working on device tree for Honor 7 with Speedo.thc. If everything goes well, there will be fully working build of LOS 13 very soon. (It seems to work better than ports from P8)
Then I will build some other ROMs based on marshmallow.
Later I will try to port LOS 14, but it will be very hard since Honor 7 runs on custom chipset and the drivers for hardware are proprietary and probably not compatible with newer android versions.
You can find the device and vendor tree on my GitHub:

if you have a working devicetree, maybe you can also fix the issues with TWRP, that we are excluded from the daily build due too incompatiblity?

Which issues do you mean?
There are no more TWRP updates since twrp-3.1.1-0-plank.img....
All Builds after 3.1.1-0 does not work anymore on H7 and so me and other users suggestet team-twrp via mail to suspend the daily builds for h7....
But I can't remember what was the failure....
Check out the existing thread on it:

Help in Custom Rom Building

well i didnt know where to ask so i made my thread here
i'm kind of new to Custom rom Building but i've started to get well
there is a couple of question i would like to ask
i have a Huawei Holly Hol-U19 android phone and it has a 7.1 RR rom ,
so first do if i like to build an oreo rom , i know that i need to have the device tree and vendor tree
as i was looking around github , i have found a device tree but i can post it cuz i am new here .... just search liquidporting huawei holly
but under branch i get CM 14.1 Which is Android 7.1
my question is do i need a device tree which has a CM 15 branch ?
my second question is .. i looked online and saw that to build a device tree you need the boot.img and recovery.img of the stock rom , but the stock rom is 4.4.4 and the highest rom i can find which is 7.1 so is there any way i could make a 8.0 ROM ?? without a CM 15 Device tree ?
and somehow i can find its vendor tree ... so if someone made a full explaintion i would be delighted
