I've tried searching and have had little luck in trying to get the details on this so hoping I can get a little more clarification here.
There's been a lot of good work being done by MasterAwesome in:
[ROM][5.1.1][STABLE] CyanogenMod 12.1 for OnePlus X
and while I understand some of the ROMs in Android Development such as Resurrection Remix and Euphoria are using the CyanogenMod 12.1 base and adding some customizations...
What is the benefit of using these as opposed to just using the source. I've tried to search for a quick guide to see what the added features or customizations are but unable to get clear answers to what each add that isn't on the other.
If this stable CyanogenMod gets to be an official build, will these ROMs be automatically updated as Cyanogen is or will you need to wait for each ROM developer to update them with nightlies, security patches, etc.
try resurrection remix

....its the best rom
dont worry
Hi,
As OnePlus is not updating anymore Onyx since last november I'm considering installing a custom rom.
For now my choices are on AOKP and Lineage OS.
I want something light but secure.
I don't need billions of features.
Does anyone has experienced both roms on Onyx and could give some feedbacks ?
Thanks a lot !
Regards,
Lineage is simply no go.
I think GZR are most stable ones.
There is a minimal feature build of jdc available on afh you can try that, imo it is the best nougat based rom for onyx at the moment(may change once pa hits the market).
Try Tesla from the thread here if you are looking fir stable 7.1.2 ROM

I will have a look at GZR.
I never heard about it before.
What's wrong about LineageOS ?
Big Update The King SultanXda Might support onyx.
So whenever his N based rom is out it will be the most stable and complete rom for onyx(he is the best dev out there).
I use XenonHD: fast and stable, ok for daily use, no bugs, tristate ok, updated near monthly. About 4h of SOT.
I red that there's network issues with most of N roms for Onyx.
Is it true and anyone has experienced it with GZR?
Sultan is great but...

I'd rather get Tutorials from Sultan than wait for him to develop OPX ROM - I appreciate he is just trying to survive like everyone else.
He's great but I have to be able to understand & do for myself. I can't afford ISP but would pay SultanXda to put out Tutorial Videos using OnePlus X as an example device, so I could learn from him.
Can't wait for anyone, its too dependent better to learn for myself & teach others so they can be independent too.
I went back to OOS 3.1.4 there are too many apps I don't use on it but I like OOS Style just wish I could remove unwanted google apps get security updates on it at least

Someone is going to cook a Sultans's lost within a few weeks.

Anyone has tried aokp nougat nightlies? Are they stable enough to be used as daily driver?
Hello!
I'd like to build my own rom from AOSP 8.0 official branch. I'm looking for some kind of guide but couldn't find any So, let's say I've got android source code and files from other custom rom that makes camera work. What have I to do to make my rom now? How can I build it and be sure that everything will work. Generally my target is to install android 8 on my Leeco le 2 x620 device with Mediatek chip
Any help is appreciated ^v^

"I'd like to build my own rom from AOSP"
So you mean an aftermarket os like lineageos or carbonrom or do you mean that you take the aosp repo and compile aosp for your device? You can look in source.android.com
"source code and files from other custom rom that makes camera work"
Is that an already compiled rom? Because you won't get source code out of that
"How can I build it and be sure that everything will work"
Ya don't. Nothing can ever be 100% bugfree, it can either be from your device tree's source code, or the aosp code itself.
Generally, if there is a caf tree for your device, it's going to be 3x as hard to create an aosp tree.
It is going to be 100000x as hard to create an aosp tree that is for a newly released, new hardware requirement operating system.
Wanna know the topping of the cake? Mediatek is notorious when it comes to releasing the source (in fact, it has become a meme in the Mediatek users world) but don't let that stop you son.
You can try, but don't give up just because it won't compile the first couple of hundred times. The errors when compiling should give you a great start
Good luck.

Oh God, how am I meant to do this ;0 There is Lineage 14.1 project on my device. I really want to have android 8 on my phone. Thank you for all the advice.
Yes im trying the same andere without any succes so far.
Im also trying to port from a different device ROM to the stock ROM what im running now.
The chip sets are the same but the Android versions not.
It would be really Nice if some mtk ROM developer find some time in his busy life to create a ROM for our phone.
Or a guide to compile/port Android o tot oud phone.
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.

OK. Thanks for the explanation. Sorry to ask again, but does that mean that I only have to update once a month for the security updates, and that the other weekly builds are basically just repeats? Or am I misunderstanding?

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.

Outstanding. That is exactly the reason why I'm making these builds. There's no reason to trash perfectly good hardware. Kudos to the LineageOS folks for keeping the tree patched -- the only thing missing were, um, actual builds.
Hi !
Thank you for your LOS 14.1 updating release, but I have error 7 with TWRP when I try flash it.

Make certain you're flashing the correct image. Boot into the bootloader and verify that the platform is the same as the build variant you are flashing. Good luck.
Thank you so much for this @wileyc , is possible to add 15.1 for flo?

I'm afraid not. These are built from unmodified LineageOS source repo; I'm just providing sustaining builds, not doing new development/porting.
