Code Aurora Git & The Android releases. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guys!
I have an InFocus m370i device which has no kernel sources available.. It has an MSM8909 (Snapdragon 210) chipset. I found out about CodeAurora, under which there was something like Android for MSM. i understand that MSM relates to Qualcomm snapdragon chipsets. What is this Git? is it providing kernel sources for universal MSM8909 chipset? i have an release named for my chip with an android version 7.01.02
your help will be appreciated the most.

CyanogenMod 13.0 on Honor 5X - Porting?

Hello, I saw this post in the section for the honor 5x.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/rom-cyanogenmod-13-0-official-kiw-l24-t3430945
Does anyone know if there is the possibility of porting the rom on our device?
If it were possible it would be a good step forward for our device.
Not possibles because CPU hardware on Honor 5x is Snapdragon and source code of kernel are opensource, not for Honor 7 the Fuc** Source code for the CPU Hisilicon Kirin are not opensource.
NEVER
NEVER
NEVER ?✌
I think this is hard but definitely do able, we could maybe port the CM build from the P8 lite when it's more finalised? This has another Kirin SoC which is similar to ours, http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/orig-development/rom-unofficial-omnirom-5-1-t3400392
Or conversely we could build it from scratch, I think we have a lot of great devs here it's just bloody hard.
P.S. I'm not sure i follow is there any other source code we need? We have Kernel source out for the H7. Do we need anything from Hisilicon?
I have seen many tutorials about android dev but there is no mention of source code from the Soc Manufacturer.
Both the devices have different SoCs but now as Honor 7 has its kernel source code released, developers are working to make CM13 possible for Honor 7.

Add fingerprint support in rom without source code

I have the Coolpad Note 3 lite. Due to the company not releasing its source code, rom porting is not good. Due to the source code not being released, the roms which are available for the device, namely cm 12.1 and rr do not support fingerprint sensor found in the phone. I would like to ask if there is any way to get the fingerprint working in the roms and if there is way then how?
Device specifications :
Processor - Mediatek MT6735
Quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53
GPU - Mali-T720MP2

How to upgrade device tre from kitkat to lolipop and so on..?

I have a Lenovo s820 which is a quad core processor based on mtk 6589. Lenovo provided Open Source Code for Kitkat on their website but i would like to update it to lollipop or maybe further. I previously owned a MI4I(Ferrari) which originally had lollipop but the developers were able to modify the device tree to support nougat and now even Oreo. If anyone of you'll could provide the steps or resources to do so i would be grateful.
Looking forward to expert opinion on this thread.
The broken is the chip set. They never release the source code for their kernel changes. This is why you don't see alot of development for those chips.

Question Is "holi" actually the device codename, or only the SOC codename?

I've found this tweet, which names "holi" as the codename for a "Qualcomm Snapdragon 400-series chipset which supports 5G! It's internally the SM4350 with 8 cores and an Adreno 619 as well for the GPU. It supports 90Hz."
https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1344685193534320644
Could "holi" be the name of our chipset, similar to how "koni" is the name of the OnePlus 8T chipset? There were reports of OnePlus 8Ts showing "koni" as the codename in recovery, while the codename for the phone itself is "kebab", so I'm wondering.
If so - does anyone know how we can find the real codename of the device?
The codename for the unlocked variant of the Nord N200 is "dre9", and the codename for the T-Mobile variant is "dre8t". OnePlus publishes the codenames for their devices on their Open Source Releases wiki page on GitHub. "holi" is probably the codename for the N200's chipset.

It's not a probably. It is. I have the unlocked variant of the N200. Product name in fastboot is "holi"
