Is there any lineage os build? - Asus Zenfone 4 (2017) Questions & Answers

I hate stock rom
And I am wonder why there isn't any custom rom that for zenfon 4.

I tried to make one a while back. I downloaded the source code of lineage OS 15. But that was as far as I went. I asked the community for help on what to do next but no one helped me.

Sorry
I am not an developer,so I can't help you either ??

Death of Cyanogen, what does this mean for the Swift 2+

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...

Several Questions about Nougat ROMs

The situation with Nougat ROMs is a bit confusing for me so I have several questions:
First question:
@andr68rus is working on several N ROMs at the same time:
Resurrection Remix
Dirty Unicorns 7.1.2
AOKP ROM for LeMax 2
Can you tell which one's the best, most future proof project? Did he even stop maintaining on of them?
Second question:
What about the official Lineage Builds?
How well maintained are they? Is this the way to go in the future?
Third question: I'm currently using TeamWin twrp-3.0.2-1-x2. Do I need a new TWRP for N?
Thanks for eventual help.
Aside from Dirty Unicorns, most of the ROMs are Lineage based. I believe @andr68rus is taking a break from DU to focus on resolving issues in the Lineage based ROMs he's building.
In fact, I believe most of the Nougat ROMs (not just andr68us') are based off the work done for Lineage 14.1 so it will probably be the best maintained. I've switched to the Unofficial Lineage 14.1 for now and probably will go with the Official (assuming it goes official, though I don't see why it wouldn't) unless some other ROM has a feature that's "must have" to me.
With regards to TWRP, I think your's should be fine, but you might want to give MultiROM a try so you can switch between ROMs. I currently have LOS 14.1 as my internal, and DU 7.1.2 & AOKP - MM as secondaries. I'm using Lineage as my daily driver, but it's nice to know I can boot back to AOKP if I have an issue. I didn't have problems with DU, but I didn't place any calls and I saw some complaints about things like echo and call volume, which is why I went to Lineage. DU did feel a bit "smoother' to me, but I'm not sure if it's just placebo because it was the first Nougat ROM I used, or if it's because it's AOSP rather than Lineage based.
When using MultiROM, just don't freak out if flashing a ROM messes up your PIN codes in all your other ROMs. There's a flashable zip to remove the pin codes from a ROM (which really just deletes a few files) and afterwards you can add you PIN back.
Thanks for the answer. With Official Lineage I've meant the ROMs from download[DOT]lineageos[DOT]org/x2 . The thing I don't understand is how well maintained that is. Do they have their own people working on the ROM, or are those people from here?
Edit: I just realized that the ROMs there are 13.0 which is supposedly Android 6.0. So there are no official Lineage 14 ROMs jet. That's where my confusion came from.

ROMs based on similar device tree (except DU), so get rom what your like. I use RR.

I'm using your Lineage 13.0 UNOFFICIAL atm. I've tried AOKP but the battery drain was too high. The 13.0 seems fine. I guess I'll wait a bit till the N ROMs a more mature.

How to build aosp from source for mido?

Hey there devs.
I'm looking forward to build a pure aosp rom based on oreo 8.1 for mido.
So far I've tried and successfully built los 14.1 and rr 5.8.5 from source, but I want to build aosp source so as to create a vanilla aosp rom. I've looked on the internet and asked a couple of devs here in the forum and they told me to merge caf patches. I totally understand the point of caf but then i don't know how to do it. Also I'm pretty sure that some patches (caf maybe) need to be added to source since the compilation always gives an error related to board config, when i followed the official guide at android website. (But then I don't understand what overlays i have to apply or even what they are)
Edit : i use gcloud to build.
If anyone can guide me as to how i can build aosp, it would be really helpful:fingers-crossed:
But then any help is appreciated.:good:
Thanks in advance!
i've no knowledge on building rom but im waiting for your vanilla for sure, hopefully you made it from Note 4X as base since all 8.1 rom i have tried are giving me various app are stopping after using it for sometime. i hope i can help you in some way though i have limitation in helping. thank you for your spirit!

Lineage & Lightrom Rom's on Samsung Galaxy Note 8

Hey guys, I hope all are doing fine.
I'm wondering guys if there is any way to get an official Lineage OS rom for Samsung Galaxy note 8!!
All that I found are the unofficial one's and I don't know if it is safe to use or not!
Another thing is the Lightrom OS that I found in our site here, but I found those two things, which are Rom and Kernels!
Should I install both of them or only the Rom enough to do the whole thing, I mean it will also install the Kernel too!
Those were my thoughts and questions, appreciating your helps in this, and thanks in advance

I doubt we will see Official Lineage OS as it requires too much work and the developer does not have the free time. The source code is posted on the thread so if there was anything dodgy in there someone would pick up on it, especially by now. Lineage 17.1 does get monthly builds for the security patches via OTA. If you're interested in flashing it you can get the latest builds here - https://images.stricted.net/lineageos/greatlte/
I can't comment on Lightrom as I believe there are a number of Lightrom's and I'm not sure to which one you refer to.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your kindness reply, I will see about the lineage, it is the one I trust in more in terms of open source Roms.
As for the Lightrom and my question about it, it could come on any other Rom, I mean in general if there's a Rom and a Kernel should I install them both or only will do the whole work (I mean by that it will install both Rom and a Kernel in a single installation process), in which I doubt, but just want to make sure, because it's my first time thinking of installing custom kernel.

Happy to help.
When you flash a rom it will flash the kernel too at the same time.
