It's been a week android pie is available...and xiaomi mi4 even got the android pie ROM today and we don't have any leak about Nexus 6p. I guess Nexus and pixel should be the first to get any leak on os because of same manufacturer. Does anyone know what's the status of development of pie of
Nexus 6p :crying:
There was a post up yesterday. @drewwalton19216801 successfully built Android pie for Nexus 6P, but wasn't able to test it because the physical port on his phone didn't connect to adb for some reason. So, he posted the builds if others wanted to try booting. There were a couple that were attempting to flash and help with the progress. The thread appears to have vanished overnight. I can't seem to find it anymore.
Jup, I tested it.
Was able to grab a logcat from adb so the kernel itself seems to boot.
But there are too many fatal errors right now.
I believe it was a pretty hacked build.

I know @drewwalton19216801 said he used the official source code and drivers, kernel, etc. That's probably the most pure it can get. Probably another reason he wanted to get it tested. I'm sure if he had a working phone that development would move along more quickly for him.
Last he said in his thread was that he was compiling something specific for you in regards to getting it to flash properly. I was really looking forward to that thread making progress. It's kind of mysterious that the mods just made his thread disappear as if nothing ever happened.

What about porting newer version of kernel (4.4.x for example) to make Angler project treble ready ?

OnePlus get AOSP Android Pie ports
OnePlus 2 recieve port of Pie, an it too has Snap 810
I'm currently working on porting P over and I have it compiling right now. Once I have it able to boot I will upload it. Then I'll optimize it and fix all of the underlying bugs.

It's going to be released as an AOSP rom, So that the community has a baseline for Pie ROMS. Other than compatibility tweaks, and some small performance, thermal and battery tweaks, it will be completely vanilla. I'm trying to keep it as pure as possible meaning only AOSP source and Huawei binaries.
However, I already have plans on releasing a Pie based custom rom with a Pixel theme. So keep an eye out for AugmentOS in the future
Edit: This may take awhile. The non-frees don't want to compile correctly and when they do they don't boot.

Ayy it has been a little bit longer for you then! Welcome back to the unrelenting hostility of building AOSP for unsupported phones.
A couple friends and I have gotten a working build but IMS, RIL, camera, Bluetooth, and probably more need to be fixed. Please be patient, this is in no way an easy thing.

Cool. Ik know it can really be a b#tch without a decent (official) device tree.
Once tried to make a device tree for the Galaxy A7 Exynos. Didn't get it to work.

This is a project I started to work on an AOSP ROM for our Grand 2.
When it gets to boot successfully, I'll make a DevDB thread for it.
The Grand 2 and the Moto G share the same chipset, the Sanpdragon 400. I'm downloading it and applying a few patches to see if it works.
I'll upload my success/failure here.
This is also a request for devs to help.
you would have better luck porting the sgs3/4/5/note3/mega CM rom, because they were made by samsung.
even though they dont have the same cpu it would literally be easier to port cm from one of those devices than from a different OEM.

I'm going to try it if my Moto G ROM port fails. But don't these devices have totally different CPUs? The only other Samsungs with this chip are the Tab 4 variants (a ported Tab 4 ROM won't work) and the S3 Neo+, which doesn't have any custom ROM.

As you are a developer, can you help me if I use a CM ROM from the devices you mentioned? The patch applied only works for ROMs for the same CPU type. I don't think it will work in this case. And does a TouchWiz kernel work over an AOSP/CM ROM.
that was my point, that those devices are closer because it has teh name samsung on it than this does to the moto g with the same chipset.
the moto g roms dont boot on the moto g 4g, times have changed to where roms are VERY device specific. i mean CWM has to have 2 versions because teh 4.3 version wont even work on teh 4.4 version..

Moto G ROM failed to boot. Though it passed the GALAXY GRAND 2 SM-G7102 thing at boot, it gives a flash of light and reboots the phone. Probably a result of using a TouchWiz kernel?
Failure will be uploaded later today.
My patch was about copying files from a Grand 2 ROM (TouchWiz used) to the new ROM.
IT FAILED. Trying on the Mega 6.3's CM build.

no its because you used a cm rom that wasnt made for this device. you cnat port roms like that you need to take teh device tree and fully make cm11 using that and compile it.

Which I didn't ever understand. Can you help me?
Do you take the device tree thing as a file?
Is building CM from that harder than building a computer program using VB.NET, or harder?
Can you help me cuz I never built a ROM that way.
If it needs Linux, then I got it (32-bit Ubuntu and x86_64 Fedora), though Windows is better.
And thanks for patience with my dumb questions

I found this thing. Can you help me by translating this to human-understandable form? Could you just carry out the steps and I'll test and do virtually everything you need to do as if you had the device in your two bare hands?
Or can you just give me instructions and I'll execute?
No.
building Cm is fairly straight forward if your device is officially supported, this device doesnt have anything. someone needs to download the source code for CM, grab my devices trees and add in all the missing info by studying the stock rom and comparing it to similar device. this can take anywhere from days to months, and even then some devices end up with stuff that is forever broken.

Thanks a lot.
So it needs a really experienced developer, whereas I am a Grade 10 student at school who knows no android programming. Sorry for wasting your precious time. But do you anyone who's willing to do it? I have school, and my parents do not let me give up schoolwork to porting a ROM.
Sorry but there isnt a bunch of peopel out there waiting for new phones to port CM to, how it works is someone with the phone ports cm and once it is considered good enough is submitted to be made official through their gerrit. then they have to become the maintainer of it and any code changes, updates etc have to be handled. its a lot of work. it doesnt need to be experienced, just a matter of fast learning as well as having a background in java/c really helps.

Thanks. Do you have the a link to the vendor trees? I'll try to check them. But tell me how to compare them and where is the missing info to add. I'll do it. Fast learning is done while you tell me to compare. So, it's me downloading the device and vendor trees, then what? Your turn.
P.S. 1. Stuff that's forever broken came to happen with the Galaxy Star. It has a CM ROM, which boots, but has no audio, no ril, no camera, and broken menu/back keys.
2. Are you American? I was born there too! Nice coincidence!
BTW, which state are you from? I'm from Illinois.

Not exactly. There's a lot of work to be done on ril, camera, Wi-Fi, and other hardware drivers, in addition to the kernel. I'm thinking about borrowing some files from the ill-fated CM build.

No. Le will never release kernel sources. So you will never have pure CM roms. The CM roms will be based on official ones like 16S, 17S etc.

Hi,
Well we already have resurrection remix which is more than decent.
OK... Maybe with a precompiled kernel but still.
I use it as a daily driver and encountered no problems so far except for a slightly too high battery drain.
But a device tree would allow to build other ROMs which would be really cool...

Also, I recommend checking htcmania Spain forum, because Parasite_remix is cooking Mooke and CM13 ROMs with 17S firmware.

Hi,
With the custom kernel, that one can be "optimized" for the device and all missing drivers can be added. At least, that is what I have been told but I'd be glad to be proven wrong.
For the htcmania link : thanks a ton, but I don't think I'll use it.
I sold the x820. Battery drain was really too high and even with moderate use, I could barely get through the day
Finding a replacement was tough, but I am trying the Xiaomi mi5 and Moto X Style (Pure) to see if they can do the job...
Both have flaws the x820 had not. And I honestly must admit that I am missing the x820 already

There are a few problems with using prebuilt kernels.
1. Upstream changes in Android source code might need related kernel changes, if you don't have the kernel source you can't do this.
2. For the same reason, you may be stuck on old android versions if the kernel isn't compatible with newer versions
3 Vendor may have customized some android frameworks and made related kernel changes. As CM wouldn't have these changed frameworks, some features may not work (although this doesn't appear to be an issue with this phone as the CM builds for it seems to be fully functional)

For microG to work properly, one has to use Xposed or a patch like Tingle by @ale5000 in order to spoof the signature of a bunch of google play services. That is, unless they use Omnirom, which allows it to work out of the box. See the thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-microg-gmscore-floss-play-services-t3217616

well, omni is based on aosp, and rr is based on lineage, they has their differences
If you have a know-how/resources, you can manually patch necessary repos and build ROM yourself (I did that for Slim builds on my previous device), commits are available on gerrit, you'll just have to fix some merge conflicts... CM didn't want to support that on CM12.1 (I remember discussion from their gerrit back then), others followed their example, so I guess that is current state of things on Lineage and other CM based ROMs even now...

I thought I read somewhere that more recent Omni 6/7 builds have been somewhat based on CM as well. Not that that would stop Omni from including sigspoofing, but I guess this is more a question whether RR includes that aspect of Omni in our device's unofficial RR release despite it being based on Lineage

"At some point" can be deep into 2017 or never but ok, I'm used to that, had a LG device which suddenly went out-of-support after not even full year of life. And it was a flagship. I'd be glad if even monthly patches are kind of regular... just dreams, haha.

I thought I read somewhere that more recent Omni 6/7 builds have been somewhat based on CM as well. Not that that would stop Omni from including sigspoofing, but I guess this is more a question whether RR includes that aspect of Omni in our device's unofficial RR release despite it being based on Lineage

Include the patch is really simple for any ROM, it doesn't depend on anything particular, it is just a choice of the one that build it.
The official patches are here.

I'd probably ask if anyone would build Omnirom for this device. Idk if a dev wants to change their current ROMs just for this feature
There is a setting available in CrDroid

yeah we will count you in bro.. jion our discussion thread
I tried crDroid and spoofing worked like a charm, but for some reason my battery does not like Nougat. Has MM development/building completely ceased for the 5x?
I was wondering if anyone Here is running Linux
Why? Probably everyone wants a "usable" Version of RR or Pixel dust
And it would be highly apreciated if that guy who has it would Compile a Rom for us (Please no GSI)
That's not how it works.
Building with Linux is only the last 10% of the process. The reason why there's no RR or PD for this phone is that no one has made the source code for it yet.

Could be either fake, a pre-packed GSI, or a port from some community outside of xda.
The only certain thing is that it's not official.
