I want to build a kernel for Xiaomi Redmi 4A. But Xiaomi doesn't release the kernel source. It is an MSM8917 chipset device. Can anyone help me to build the kernel for this device?
Not without source. This is the reason developers and sites like xda condem and avoid this oem.
Device Redmi note prime Gucci msm8916
Present Xiaomi has released kikat kernel
But android devs are less for this device present I am trying to build android n
But I have tried so many errors with kernel and my device is not booting
So present I have seen about caf kernel
But I don't have much information about caf kernel please tell how to use caf kernel sources
And please tell commits
Code Arora forums (caf) is the place where u can get drivers for the hardware. U can synchronise from its git same way u sync android sources
Hello dear devs, i believe you have more experience than me about this stuff. Since i heard kernel source code i mean updated one requires for Pie based ROM's, do you think Xiaomi will ever release updated kernel sources soon? Please let us know since a lot of people wants to taste Pie ROMs..
We don't need oreo source for pie roms actually, but it would be a newer source, maybe better drivers n'stuff? it could be different for other devs, but for me it's just an update
Xiaomi just relesed kernel sources for android pie for this devices: MIX2S, MIX3, MI 8, POCOPHONE F1, MI 8UD, MI 8 Explorer Edition
https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/dipper-p-oss
This kernel is the same of MIX 3 Pie, but compatible with all xiaomi sdm845 devices
Could anyone compile a LOS, for example, from source using these kernel sources?
Thank you

Does this mean there will be a universal Kernel for all phones or is this not possible?

Maybe not now, each device uses different defconfig file and different devicetree(this include battery, camera sensor, screen configuration)
it does not mean Mi 8 cannot boot with a custom kernel compiled for Mi mix 3 , but something could be broken or doesn't work properly.

yeah, but maybe it's not also hard to make PORTED versions now? Dunno, hope so, this would bring many developers together

FEATURES

IMPORTANT NOTICE: This kernel tries to follow GKI scheme from google now QGKI thanks to QCOM, so flasheable zip comes with .ko modules that are pushed to /vendor/lib/modules, this means the kernel is not systemless as previous devices, like kona or msmnile platfroms. Fash at your own risk

since it's miui base i don't think so, but if you try please share your feedback.
Attempted to flash on MIUI 12.5.9 didn't booted neither got into recovery. Backup your vendor_boot.img to flash back in case of messing up something.
good job.
Did someone tried on GSI rom?
Hi, I'm assuming you use this kernel in your latest Descendant build? I've been using MIUI for almost a year now and still miss the feel of a close to AOSP build. If I can find the time to reset all of the 2FA accounts I'll for sure give Descendant a try!
Descendant rom in use Quantic Kernel [5.4.203] Boot failure with installation
Booting after factory reset successful
Not completed during initial setup

I saw that message on telegram. He was last person doing something for this phone after Patryk abandoned making PE. I hope service will fix his device and he will be back.
Hello does someone know if this kernel works with gsi roms?

There is still a ROM for the Renoir, CorvusOS.
I just installed it, for the moment no problem. It is close to the PE ROM I think.
