Hello there.
Since there are so many requests about a CM Port.
I wanted to make something.. There is no port coming soon nor is a official one
BUT, if all of us (the ones that want that port) email CM and ask for a CM for n7505 and 750 we maybe see a port soon!
If I do it alone I wouldnt get a response back. But if we all do it. Maybe we will!
Because, with more people, we stand stronger
Thanks for reading
Leave a comment about what you think of this idea!

bro it doesnt work like that....simply requesting them wont work....first someone from our device have to make an unofficial cm build by himself....then we have to remove all the bugs and we have to submit that rom to cm team....then they will review the rom and if they are convinced that the rom is bugless and the sources used are appropraite then they will announce our device as officially supported....but even after that we need an active developer to maintain cm for our device so that future updates are correctly implemented in our device.....
so asking them will do nothing we have to build our own cm and even after building we have to maintain it to make it officially supported by them....
Hi.
I don't know if this is the right place for posting or not. But I just wanted to share it with you guys.
I was a fan of Simple AOSP ROM on my Nexus 4 back in the day. According to me, it had all the essential features for a ROM.
Now I have switched to OP2. The development of OP2 was very slow in the early stages but now it has picked up pace.
Keeping that in mind, I want to request someone to please build this ROM for our OP2. Since I have no idea or the time to build it myself, I would love to see someone take this up.
Here is the official source code - https://github.com/SAOSP-M
Regards,
Reserved.
I'm not a developer myself but I do try and flash the roms on my OP2. Not sure if you yourself are a developer so please ignore if you already have checked these, but Paranoid android, Exodus are all aosp based.. and this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/orig-development/rom-aosp-caf-oneplus2-t3386553
I think is purely aosp-caf based.
I don't know if I'm out of line suggesting an alternative rom but, http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/orig-development/rom-halogenos-oneplus-2-t3377799
Similar to the suggestion above but is way more current. June security update, beta 2 released today.
I'm looking into the possibility of getting Resurrection Remix Marshmallow AOSP ROM running on the Galaxy A5 2017 device of Model Number(s):
A520F (Single SIM Variant)
A520F/DS (Dual SIM Variant)
I've made time available on my hands as i'm a fan of the ROM and it would be great running it up and functional on this device.
I'm hoping this post increases popularity as to attract experienced developers so i can get all the help i need since building an AOSP ROM such as Resurrection Remix from sctrach is very challenging and time consuming.
The Official A5 2017 AOSP (Devs Only) Whatsapp Group is available for all of the developers who would like to join it in helping me bring this Project to life. If your interested in joining and helping, simply post down below your intention in doing so along with your International Contact Number.
Btw here's the Resurrection OS Marshmallow Source:
https://github.com/ResurrectionRemix/platform_manifest/blob/marshmallow/README.mkdn
And here's our device's kernel source which was released by Samsung:
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=A520F
I wanna too, for A3 2017
Wasn't there something on the Whatsapp group about collecting donations for an experienced dev to buy this phone so he could port the rom? I would love to see Resurrection Remix on my A520W. Maybe if a post was made on the forum about donating, more people would see it.
I think that it's will be never possible ,because "Exynox" cpu (drivers problems.....like others devices,like some galaxy note...) ...
But it was truth in the past ....and maybe i was wrong now ,i don't know the last development ...

Ha ok ,good new for source .:good:
And yes...pity...samsung (exept "s" series) is less and less interested ...
In the past i loved customs roms but now it's maybe good for low and some middle devices but i think that it's a good "regression" ,we loose some good stock options and functiins (like finger print...etc...)... don't have the full exploitation of photo ...less performance.....etc...(samsung stock patent !!!) But yes....with some customs we can change the size,position and color of the hour,battery...etc...lol ! And cm/lineage sourced is not as "stable" as stock firmware ...
Lineage OS in on the horizon. Maybe this will help inspire other developers to take up the Resurrection Remix project or develop their own custom ROMs. But good things are coming in the future.

I see the thread has been closed and no more users are being added to the group, how can we keep up to date? I'm very interested in this phone but I'm holding back until I can see that LineageOS has a developer/maintainer.

If you hit me up on WhatsApp I can try and get the OP to add you to the group. I'll talk to him that you're interested in helping out with the development of Lineage. But once Nougat drops, I think the resources will be available on GitHub.
I hope install the rom too man. a5 a520f/ds.

Hi friends and dear developers..
I've been in this community since many years. I've been using Sony phones and then xiaomi phones.
> I've always seen that there are most kernels developed only for Cyanogen(now Lineage) based ROMs.
I accept that Lineage based ROMS are much much better in terms of performance and fluidity, and I love many roms out there.
But I always see xiaomi users get back to MIUI one day or another, since it has it own advantages, especially looks.
So my real query is, why don't we concentrate atleast a little on kernels for MIUI roms as well??
So friends, kindly share your views and suggestions, so that developers might take a look into this.
Love you all for your valuable time and knowledge. :good::highfive:

MIUI is outdated most of us using XDA only use custom ROMs,take me for an example I used MIUI in my redmi 3s only initial 3~5 months after that when I heard xioami won't upgrade redmi 3s to nougat ,I switched to custom ROM since then I never gone back to MIUI ,heck I even forgot I'm using xiaomi device.
There is bunch of up-to-date Oreo custom ROMs available for our device,as for MIUI it only stuck in Android marshmallow with April 2017 security patch which is one year old.so do u really think developers should care about MIUI?if normal users don't want to use MIUI ,then why should developers waste their time to create kernel,which nobody gonna use? Besides kernel development for our device is generally not that great compared to santoni and other redmi devices,so yeah this my opinion on this matter,if in future xiaomi decided to upgrade all devices to up-to-date Android(which I doubt),I'm sure developers will create more kernels for MIUI,even then custom ROMs will always dominate.
As for themes,since you're not new here,you at least heard about substratum theme engine/OMS give it a try,it's better than MIUI theming.
If you really want to stick to MIUI (official or custom Marshmallow based) you can use PerXepted kernel by Nichcream : https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-3s/development/kernel-perxepted-16-aug-t3657329
It is excellent.

Thank you for your detailed explanation. And i totally agree with you buddy.. Except the fact that there are end users who still love MIUI (even though android version isn't updated and yes it sucks very much)..
And yes I have used substratum theme engine, its really great though

Yeah bro I have used it already.. It haven't been updated since long... And I hope it won't be updated anymore....
Because like SMR96 bro said, miui isn't updated (in terms of android version or security patch). Hence developers won't take much interest in updating kernel for an outdated ROM

It has been updated in january 2018, this is not so bad. The real problem is due to MIUI security patch level, april 2017 is not acceptable.
But sadly, nobody tried to add new security patch to MIUI.
I have an idea to port Android 9.0 Pie to the Samsung Galaxy J5 Prime. This will most likely be able to be ported to all models of this device.
The idea is that we can port a rom from the Samsung Galaxy J3 (2017), since the specs of the device are *exactly* the same. (If you want to find out for yourself, click this link for the specs of the J5 Prime: https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_j5_prime-8342.php#g570y , and click this link for the J3 (2017): https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_j3_(2017)-8438.php )
The specs are exactly the same (at least on paper), so theoretically speaking, we should be able to port this device's new update, which is Android 9.0 Pie, with Samsung's One UI. First, we should try dirty flashing a rom (Using Odin, since all custom roms are just oreo roms, and most require a stock rom installed already), and see if it at least boots up. If not, we customize software, and try to help it become compatible with the hardware inside of the Galaxy J5 Prime.
Now, here are the problems we will be facing. First, the device tree might be slightly different, which could hinder the process of porting this rom. Second, modifying the stock software is really difficult, especially if you don"t have any experience in porting roms. Third, not all apps are going to be compatible, like the Camera app, unless modified with the data from the oreo Camera app we have in our roms now. And fourth, Wifi and Bluetooth may not work in the first few builds, but could be fixed with using the oreo Wifi and Bluetooth APKs and libs.
So, now that we have gotten all that info out of the way, which developers would like to help? I can do it myself, but I have never ported a rom before, but have done a good amount of research on it. I DO have a test device, which is my trusty old Galaxy J5 Prime (M model). But I would still appreciate some professional help. Anyone can pitch in, but you need some experience or some knowledge on porting roms. And that includes you, tutibreaker! You made so many good roms, and I think you can really help the community on this one!

I understand that tutibreaker is already working on a port. However, I'm sorry to be pessimistic, but I don't think it's going to be possible; mainly because Samsung still does not release the source code of some kernel M. Anyway you can enter to his Telegram group and try to speak directly with him.
* I am dev, but I am not interested in Android Pie. I prefer to stay in Oreo with root and my mods.
PD: Galaxy J2 Core (J260); J3 2017 (J330); J4 (J400); Xcover 4 (G390). Everyone has the same processor. I was investigating a little. Only for curiosity.

Thanks for replying, LUCiON3! I understand that getting the source code is impossible, but we can still try. I mean, it's been done many times before. And most of those ports are mostly bugless, and work flawlessly. So if those ports can work, I bet that this port will work flawlessly, when put in front of the right person. And I also consider joining tutibreaker's Telegram group, and try to speak with him directly, of course without asking the ETA of the rom. Also say thanks to tutibreaker from me. (Or I can do it myself lol):good:
Edit: I did know that the Xcover and the J2 had the same SoCs, but did not know about the J4 having the same one too. The things you learn everyday!
