[Q] Build/compile CM kernel from source - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have some questions regarding how to build/compile a kernel for a CM12 ROM for the victara (Moto X 2014):
Would I use Moto's kernel source or does CM have something to use?
How would I start, given that I have already installed Ubuntu 14.04?

Need developers for MT6589.

Hi,
I'm trying to build a Cyanogenmod 12.1 ROM for MT6589 based device. We need developers who can develop a Cyanogenmod 12.1 based device tree. We have an existing Cyanogenmod 12.0 device tree, but it's having lots of bugs.
--
Here is the device tree: https://github.com/Preet23/android_device_micromax_a116/tree/cm-12.0_dev1
(It uses 3.4.5 kernel as we have already booted 5.0 ROM with this kernel)
If possible, just help me figure out what's the error.
Thanks.

Android 6.0.1 ( CM13) Development Question

Hi! I'm new to android development and was wondering if someone could answer my bleeding question. Let's say the most recent cyanogenmod for my device is cm 12.1 and I wanted to start work on cm13. The most recent branch in github for my device ( htc one x+ enrc2b) is 12.1. How do make the device tree for cm 12.1 compatible with cm 13? Again I'm new to this and am willing to learn
Thank You

Kernel source modification for different android versions

I have the kernel source for JellyBean 4.2.2 that boots cyanogenmod 10 and other jellybean ROMS. But when I use that kernel for Kitkat like Cyanogenmod 11 that doesn't work.
To make sure the problem is in the kernel I packed the cm11 boot.img with the jellybean kernel and it didn't boot.
So my question is what modifications does the source need for a newer android version ?
I posted it many times found no answer .

How do i adapt an old device tree for a new android version?

Hi,
Im new to building roms
Trying to build for my phone j7maxlte SM-G615F
However, the device trees, kernel, and vendor trees all are for lineageos 14.1
I want to compile it for 19.1
What changes do i have to make to the tree to make it compile?
if you don't have sources for kernel 4.14 you can't compile kernel 4.14 it's that simple isn't it?
so i can't build 19.1?
i gotta make a new kernel?
you can build newer LineageOS on low kernel, not sure how it works. the oldest device I use is Samsung Galaxy S3 Neo (stock ROM Android 4.4. Kitkat) the developer @html6405 has built LineageOS 20.0 (Android 13) on old kernel maybe he can help out
