Hi guys, thought this would be helpful.
Kernel source for Moto G5 Nougat has been released -
https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/releases/tag/MMI-NPP25.137-33
Can our devs cook something for us using this?
Could be helpful!
Same SoC with our phone right?

Hi devs, Thanks for filling up the development sections :highfive: with lots of new roms, I was wondering - nokia 6 also uses Snapdragon 430 Soc, is there any possibility to port its ROM to redmi 3s/prime ??. I'm just a beginner and I have no idea about rom development after kitkat, further I also saw @zwliew device tree for cm14, has anyone tried porting it?

They know, dev's waiting for caf patches and/or are working on it already.
Hi everyone,
Being forced to buy a new phone, because of a hardware failure, I ended up buying the Moto G5 XT 1676. To my pleasant surprise the source code has already been made available by Lenovo.
https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm/releases/tag/MMI-NPP25.137-33
Unfortunately I cannot code for s**t, so I hope someone will pick it up from here, so we can enjoy cool custom ROMs soon.

Is there currently any custom roms in development?
No custom roms for this device yet?
As moto g5 is also running on msm8937 so is it possible to build ROM for mi3s with this codes
We Lenovo K5 Note users are stuck with Marshmallow in the age of Oreo. And searching the XDA didn't find a single ROM development dedicated to Lenovo K5 Note.
Even here people discussing and developing Lenovo K5 and K5 Plus but no mention for K5 Note.
Anyone out there working on a Lineage 14.1 or 15 projects or any other AOSP-like projects to bring Nougat or Oreo to this poor phone?
Or is it something like the development is impossible for K5 Note in this world?? :laugh:

Its mtk man there is no kernel source available to work so don't expect any rom to work easily
You shouldn't have bought a mtk phone instead you should have gone for Qualcomm

That's really sad. It looks like a worst purchase by me. Will consider better Snapdragon phone from next time.

But its processor is quite good and it is able to tolerate further ROM updates. We surely deserve the lineage os15.0 oreo update. Don't you think?

Absolutely. It could unleash it's true power if it was run with Lineage or other better ROMs.

Hi, there are ways to reverse engineer the kernel.

Well actually kernel is not an issue here , roms can be made using prebuilt kernel also atleast the Android version your stock ROM has . The real issue is lack of devs so either one of you guys learn how to compile roms or just make a port ROM for your device but my recommendation stay on stock as there will not be any noticeable difference in performance or bb .

I have a keen interest in trying it out,
Can you guide me to right direction.
I have gone through a lot but it's scattered all over the place.
I m a c# developer, quite understand programming.
I would be using I7 processor, windows 10 , for the build

Basically I would like to port any existing ROM like LineageOS

For compiling roms .
Idk any good threads for porting roms but it's fairly easy and If you will google it the 1st/2nd result will do the work . Ironically there is no need of programming required for compiling or porting roms so just get started .
Edit :- I couldn't confirm the thread you shared last time. In theory it should work
Only one J5 can get Oreo:J5 2017
J5 prime has 7570 the SOC supports Marshmallow and Nougat (J3 2017 too can't get O)
And J5 2016 has Snapdragon 410

MSM8916 is pretty much dead now on official support
Its predecessor MSM8226 ended with MM so i think its the same with the 8916....
But hey you have MIUI9, LOS15"Broken", TW-NN and many more ROMS to enjoy
Also J5 2017 is an Exynos 7870 phone :b(Its a J5 series phone only)

And? J5 2016 has much lower lifespan than the 2015 model and also Samsung has never EVER fixed bugs or wrote any code in their sources by themselves(Samsung hasnt even created Touchwiz :b). They are taking Nougat patches from Qualcomm and if Exynos from partners and if Qualcomm kills oreo support for MSM8994/8996 then they wont really get their time porting it for J5 2016/2015

If support is stopped we can port Lineage (J5 2015 has already LineageOS 15)
MSM-8916 development is stronger than ever, you clearly don't know what you're talking about. And LOS 15 is not ported is built from source like 14.1. For J5 (2015) we have great devs.

Oreo can be ported for J5 2016 but is not that easy to fix the bugs because you don't have the right libs to use, not all the libs from N are compatible with O and there are so many missing. An example could be the RIL bug (sim bug), you need to replace the new main RIL lib but you can't find it in any other N rom... If you try to replace it or any other RIL file you will get a bootloop...
I like your question.
I think all Samsung brands should be accepted it.

I know this because Qualcomm has stopped support on their MSM8916 (Snapdragon 410)
So we have Hello X20 sources from Vernee and the LeEco X62x has a beta nougat Rom that everything is working so would it be possible to Port Treble for MTK phones?
It would be a relief for us MTK uses as we are still stuck on 6.0
Sent from my LeEco Le S3 X626 running LineageOs 14.1
