Hello, I should be buying a Swift 2 Plus soon, and as a complete noob, I don't know what the death of Cyanogen is going to do to my device. Obviously it won't instantly brick it, but how am I gonna get future Android updates without installing a custom rom?
have a sexy christmas
Please, read my post here, and the (unconfirmed) Wileyfox's response to Cyanogen move here. It should be enough to clear your doubts

One thing relating more to the custom ROM area. So some of the CM team (not COS) are rebranding as lineage OS right. And they are continuing off the codebase of CM however we don't have a build of CM so how will and developer , from lineage or anywhere else, build a custom ROM without code from CM or AOSP. Unless Cyanogen Inc release the source code for our phone which I'm not sure they will. (Sorry if this is a noob question)

You're absolutely correct. We can't start with the development with no sources. However, I don't think Cyanogen would do that at the moment, and, after seeing Wileyfox's response to Cyanogen moves, I think (and actually hope) they'll switch to an AOSP-based ROM with Android N 7.0 upgrade, and if that happens I'm really sure they'll have no problem on releasing the source code (remember Wileyfox devices tend to be quite developer-friendly). From that, we can work on bringing Lineage...

Why don't you concentrate first resolving issues on the other roms? What is the sense of releasing every kind of roms but with the same issues?

WelI think it is just as good making normal roms. The in-call isue and other bugs are related across all N roms so that means that if it gets fixed on one then you'll have all the other roms fixed in a small matter of time and now you have 3 working Nougat roms instead of one non functioning rom

Not at all. At the moment you have a lot of not working ROM that are not going to work, because if you look at their github, you'll see that authors most likely lack knowledge needed to make them work. Building every ROM available using the same base is a waste of time (and distraction for users) if one can't even fix your issues in one of them. Plus moving to newer version of android without having the previous one fully working is a suicide run. Nougat has a lot of complex changes in it's sources and it doesn't even fully work on some officially supported devices, so don't expect a good ROM of Android 7.1.1 anytime soon and flooding forums with multiple ROMs having the same issues is not going to help it.

Well... You are right sir. In-call audio is really really important and I wish someone knew why it was happening..
I didn't mean in call audio. I meant this ROM doesn't even boot normally and they have no clue why, yet instead of trying to debug they release bunch of not working builds. Camera doesn't work and it will not work since you'd either have to use updated open source HAL or revert Nougat media changes and it won't be a surprise if I'll tell you they have no idea how to do it. The only real devs, who knew what they were doing left because their work was posted by someone else and now he's making blind commits in hope that things will magically fix themself. They won't. I might as well tell you that development on J5 is dead unless someone new with actual knowledge steps in. Don't expect any significant changes. We can't even take patches from any other msm8916 devices, because they have more advanced development and use a lot of open source projects instead of prebuilt libs like we do. Even camera in CM13 is not fully fixed because open source cam doesn't work for us and after debugging it for 3 weeks I've still didn't come up with reliable solution to make it work (only made some errors dissapear).

You're not totally sure.
Creating new roms is just to try to see if there are different results and not just to flood the forum with crap.
The name of the forum is XDA - DEVELOPERS, this means that it is of full use to developers, if the person does not know how to help, it just stays silent while someone else can do it. Your help in testing is much appreciated since we are trying to do something free for you, and still prefer to say things like that.
I thank you and respect your concept, but try to help instead.

The problem with incall and other stuff is already encountered by SoUnd001, but the big problem is that we're not hitting what it does so it's not booted, you're getting errors with incall and stuff because of the patch you're installing, not because of Rom or current kernel.
NOTICE:
I'm finishing a build for J500FN, we know it may not start properly, but I want to know the result for these users. I hope the sooner I have it all working.

Considering our device only has Marshmallow we can afford to deal with some bugs. If i read correctly RR 6.0.1 only has the radio bug so we have a working Marshmallow rom. The next logical step is to make Nougat and they do not have a kernel thats Nougat based so thats why they are running into problems and why we have to use patches. Im almost 100% sure that once we get official Nougat to our device, 99% of the bugs in these roms will disappear

FYI: ALL custom ROM are using the same hardware repo's maintained by CAF, CM(Lineage now) or AOSP. There won't be any different results. The most important repos are all the same. The fact that you don't know that and your friend's github sources show that there is nothing to be helped. You're just playing games with users pretending you could make things work. What for? In the end they will be the ones left with nothing but promises. People, who could actually do something left, because someone took their work and published it to take all the applause for it and now you're blindly trying changes hoping they would somehow fix things.

They built from the source already made by ganesh. Their own changes are blindly trying things that have no right to work in the first place. Builiding android from someone's ready sources is like walk in a park.

Certainly not for J5 2015, maybe 2016 but it could benefit us anyway since these devices are similiar.
I'm done, Moderator will probably soon come and delete my posts since all they care about is keeping forum clean. You may consider this device dead at the moment.

I understand from your post that Sound001 or EsromG5 did the hard work, but its not like that.
@Nick Verse and @ganesh varma were the ones who built cm12.1 and cm13 from source. They were also working on cm14 source while they were working on cm13.
So, please edit your post and dont mislead people.
Koloses said everything.
Since Nick and Ganesh left J5 development because their project which were working on was posted by someone else, the issues of Nougat CM/AOSP based roms wont be solved.

How many builds of pir are there? can't any of them be installed permanently or are they all still alpha that will need reinstalled after official launch? i want to upgrade from the original OPX android to to pie for daily use. i also want magisks if that's not all supper outdated now too.
LOS 16 is really stable IMO and the dev announced it xill be the one supported in top priority.
There is no evidence that there will be "official" custom Rom on pie for OPX.
so the custom pie roms will not get updates from google?

?? I don't understand your question.
Google doesn't do anything about custom roms.
There is just one dev that worked on some custom roms on Pie (Pixel experience, AOSP and LOS). He just tond that he will put the priority on the LOS one. Note that it's marked as LOS 16 unofficial as he builds it itself, not in the LOS offcial roaster.
Onyx won't even be in the 15.1 roaster as it has just been ejected from official 14.1 roaster.

when Debian gets updates so does ubuntu and kubuntu and lubuntu and xubuntu. custom rom or not it IS still google android pie, so when vulnerability is found a update is pushed out for pie and all pie devices get said fix. unless phones don't work this way which would suck and mean it's un secure the custom rom dev gets boared or no longer has time.

You are confused, android builds are device specific, every patch needs to be integrated and compiled by the developer or mantainer of the rom you're using and can't be used in any other phone. Google releasses a new version of android and it's up to developers to create drivers and kernel "stuff" that allows the software to funcion in the device.

AH-HA!!!! This makes sense!
Hello,
@sir_bazz mentioned that this needed its own thread, thus I'm creating one.
I've been building LineageOS 14.1 from the official LineageOS source repository for my personal devices for some time now, and it finally occurred to me that others might find them useful.
These builds are created every Saturday night from a 100% unaltered LineageOS repository, which is synchronized with upstream every day. I must stress that there are NO MODIFICATIONS at all; if it worked/didn't work in the last official Cyanogenmod/LineageOS releases, it works/doesn't work in my builds. At Apple we called these "sustaining builds" -- they keep devices in sync with the latest security patches, but receive no new features.
Deb is at https://lineageos.disavowed.jp/deb/. Flo is at https://lineageos.disavowed.jp/flo/. There are other devices being built as well ... if you would like me to add a 14.1 or 15.1 device to the weekly build roster, please let me know.
I hope this helps out folks who want to extend the service lifetime of their gear. Share and enjoy.
Edit: per moderator request, I need to provide a link to the source repository used to generate these builds to comply with XDA's interpretation of the GPL. It is the stock LineageOS repository, located at git://github.com/LineageOS/android.git. TheMuppets binary repository was used for the vendor blobs; it is at https://github.com/TheMuppets/
Have been testing the latest weekly for a couple of days now, and no issues to report.
My Deb device is relegated to a dedicated Pogo tablet and I think Lineage 14.1 is a better match for my use as there's noteably more memory available after system startup than with the Pie ROMs I've tested.
It just feels much smoother.
Would've been more than happy with monthly updates but thanks for building the ROM and also making weeklies available for us Nexus 7 diehards.

Likewise. I was just about to junk a (relatively) new N7 (flo) on stock MM. but wanted to give a newer ROM a try (Oreo). I didn't like my O options and stumbled upon these N builds on the backend of another thread. Flashed/Magisk couple Mods. Been up a week now and not one problem whatsoever!
Really appreciate the work as this ROM (I had never used a LinOS rom before) is running so well the N7 is almost my daily house driver again. The N7 FF really has never been matched/surpassed and once you've become accustomed to it its just hard to give up that "sweet spot".

Hi, I've just updated both my Hammerhead 15.1 and Flo 14.1. Everything has gone smoothly and all is working. I was just hoping you could clarify something that occurred to me regarding the builds.
When you say there are no modifications, does that mean that the basic ROM is frozen at the point when LineageOS stopped releasing official builds, and does that also mean that builds in between the monthly security updates are all the same or can there be other security/bug fixing updates from LineageOS? Also Lineage 15 was never official for the Nexus 5 or 7? I'm a bit in the dark as to how these things work.
Thanks in advance.

No worries. By "no modifications", I mean that these are built directly from a clone of the LineageOS repository. I've made absolutely no changes to the source code. No kernel tweaks, no new features, no hidden spyware, no bugfixes (no matter how much I am tempted to do so!).
The LineageOS folks merge the monthly Google security patches into the 14.1 and 15.1 trees, but they don't make official builds for devices that no longer have a maintainer. Their official recommendation is to build it yourself if you want to keep your devices patched, but a non-trivial number of users can't make their own builds, so ...
... since I'm doing builds for my own devices anyway, it would be a good thing to make them available to others. Thus I have done so
Edit: argh, rereading I realize I didn't directly answer your exact question. From an end-user perspective, these builds are indeed frozen in time compared to the last official LineageOS build. Security patches happen as described above.
The Nexus 7 never received an official 15.1 build as far as I can tell, so I'm generating 14.1 for it.
The Nexus 5 is a bit of a grey area, in that builds generated from the 15.1 branch work fine with the exception of Bluetooth (from what I hear, as I don't use Bluetooth on my device). It appears to require a device repartition if you want to use Google apps, though, so I'm building both 14.1 and 15.1 to keep options option.

They're repeats. I'm doing them weekly to reduce the amount of time between the security patch hitting the tree and having a patched build available.

Hi. One Question, can i update over last zeelogs LOS Build?
We are very excited to announce the release of Paranoid Android Quartz, based on Android 10.
On the first launch, you’ll notice a clean setup with a beautiful wallpaper from Hampus Olsson, who teamed up with us again to create several beautiful pieces of artwork. Hampus is a multi-disciplinary artist whose design stands for itself and we’re glad to have him onboard. We also added further UI touches that we believe enhance the overall user experience. You can find all of the Paranoid Android wallpapers and many more in the Abstruct app, included in our builds.
Our builds are based on the Code Aurora Forum Android base, which is optimized for Qualcomm platforms and has a higher degree of performance, battery life, and functionality compared to the Android Open Source Project platform. The Paranoid Android team and contributors are focusing on squashing existing bugs, and implementing and improving features, performance, and stability. We are dedicated to providing a user experience with the stability that you can expect from stock ROMs with best-in-class performance and features to help you get the most out of your device.

Thanks for bringing PA to our device. The install went perfectly, but setup kept asking me to insert my SIM card. I have Verizon. I was able to connect to WiFi, but couldn't get it to recognize the mobile network. I did try turning airplane mode on and off, but no luck.

Oh sorry, that's my bad. I accidentally forgot to switch to AOSP's RIL, as CAF RIL will not work. I'll fix it and upload a new build soon.
Same here, will wait, thanks for the fix in advance:good:

Most ROM instructions usually tell you to wipe /system, but this is not actually necessary on Pixels, since there's an A/B setup, so that's up to you whether you want to wipe system. I usually don't. And a factory reset should wipe both /data and dalvik, so that's not too hard.
The mobile network fix worked !! Good Job.
I'm getting Carrier Provisioning Service force close. I sent you a PM with a link to a logfile and hope you can read it.
A feature I'd love to see in future builds is Volume Steps.
Again, Thanks for your work here.
No bells and whistles but fast and smooth as to be expected
from PARANOID ANDROID brilliant thanks love it ?.
Excited to install again once it becomes stable
Apps take over the screen and I am not able to access screen buttons. I love that it is a CAF ROM.

Sounds like a hostage situation intriguing very very intriguing ?.
You gave the wrong zip for sailfish, it's actually marlin.
Hey there!
Can we expect an Android 11 build in the future? That would be amazing! :fingers-crossed:

Unfortunately, the sailfish build didn't work right, so it's only on marlin for now. However, I'll come back to building PA on 11.

I see. It would be nice if in the future we're going to see other builds for sailfish/marlin. (official ones would be really awesome)
