Now that Kernel source has been released by the manufacturer.
Here's hoping Lineage/ArrowOS/CrDroid/Havoc/AOSP is released for this brilliant value-for-money device!
Those ROMs doesn't require kernel source.
You can already run all those ROMs on OP Nord2 as GSI.

Is there another way to run ROMs then?
Is GSI some emulator style? Why do devs crib about Mediatek sources not being available? Is there another way of making ROMs in a native way? This is the first time I'm reading about something called as GSI ?!

Not at all, it runs natively just like stock rom.
The idea of a GSI is simply that we keep the drivers from stock ROM. They are working perfectly fine for stock ROM users, there is no reason those drivers wouldn't work fine for us.

Honestly? I'd say stubborness. Yes, we can use sources of more drivers on Qualcomm devices than on Mediatek devices, but to what end? Everytime needed sources of a driver on a Qualcomm platform, its sources were not available at all.
On Mediatek side, there is some source code available, but from shady origin, so they can be used to learn more about how Mediatek drivers work, but it can't be used to build drivers directly from sources. Again, we can just use stock ROM's drivers.

Yeah well GSI are severely underrated, because you can't make a news about a generic image working on a new device at every new device...

Hey guys, I'm compiling SlimKat for this device right now, and since I don't own the device, I'll need testers...so, who's interested in the fun?

Cm posts all their kernel source. Slim roms require a custom kernel. I build slim for a few devices and cm kernels seldom work so without the kernel source for the device it may not be an option.

download the caf kernel sources (can't remember which tag. 3.5.2.2?), map the kernel source from the device config as usual.
then make bootimage (which will install the headers),
finally, remove the configs for source built kernel, and map the dt image and zImage
the compiling is making it further and further...hopefully it won't break
BUILD FINISHED! http://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-3/orig-development/rom-slimkat-t2846759
I'm pretty sure I can build OmniROM. Anyone interested in that? (High chance of it not working though)
don't worry Just do it

Lol I'm trying to get enough money for a small server. My laptop is super full (see SIG). But I want to build omni and 2 other ROMs for the cancro.
I would advise all to read this. Action will be taken in the next few days.

Will this phone ever see official Cyanogenmod roms?
No. Le will never release kernel sources. So you will never have pure CM roms. The CM roms will be based on official ones like 16S, 17S etc.

Could you maybe be clearer on this? How likely is it that this is actually going to happen?
I don't know @deadman96385, but i think if a User which such "Experience" in a Community like XDA Developers tells you that the kernel sources may be release, i think you just have to be a Little bit Patient and anytime your dreams will be fulfilled... am i right deadman?

Yes I guess, its just this is the key reason whether I decide to buy this phone or not, dont want to be stuck with chinese roms in the future.
Hi,
Well we already have resurrection remix which is more than decent.
OK... Maybe with a precompiled kernel but still.
I use it as a daily driver and encountered no problems so far except for a slightly too high battery drain.
But a device tree would allow to build other ROMs which would be really cool...
Regards
@deadman96385 it's already in the mid of september.. do you still see any realistic chance that we're gonna see some kernel source or a cyanogenmod in the future. if you do.. of which timeframe do we talk? days, weeks months?

What are the main disadvantages between precompiled kernel and the use of kernel sources?
Also, I recommend checking htcmania Spain forum, because Parasite_remix is cooking Mooke and CM13 ROMs with 17S firmware.

Hi,
With the custom kernel, that one can be "optimized" for the device and all missing drivers can be added. At least, that is what I have been told but I'd be glad to be proven wrong.
For the htcmania link : thanks a ton, but I don't think I'll use it.
I sold the x820. Battery drain was really too high and even with moderate use, I could barely get through the day
Finding a replacement was tough, but I am trying the Xiaomi mi5 and Moto X Style (Pure) to see if they can do the job...
Both have flaws the x820 had not. And I honestly must admit that I am missing the x820 already
Regards.

Pretty bad to hear this.
Sadly though, more and more people are leaving the Le Max2 camp. If only they would release the sources...
Anyhow, good luck with your next device

There are a few problems with using prebuilt kernels.
1. Upstream changes in Android source code might need related kernel changes, if you don't have the kernel source you can't do this.
2. For the same reason, you may be stuck on old android versions if the kernel isn't compatible with newer versions
3 Vendor may have customized some android frameworks and made related kernel changes. As CM wouldn't have these changed frameworks, some features may not work (although this doesn't appear to be an issue with this phone as the CM builds for it seems to be fully functional)
I was wondering if anyone Here is running Linux
Why? Probably everyone wants a "usable" Version of RR or Pixel dust
And it would be highly apreciated if that guy who has it would Compile a Rom for us (Please no GSI)
That's not how it works.
Building with Linux is only the last 10% of the process. The reason why there's no RR or PD for this phone is that no one has made the source code for it yet.

Could be either fake, a pre-packed GSI, or a port from some community outside of xda.
The only certain thing is that it's not official.

It has unnofficial in the package name
who uses GSI know
the best are always the ARM64 versions
so why didn't anyone try to make a 64bit vendor for the A10?
is this a device so useless? :crying:
I think an ARM64 vendor would give a new life to the devices, and open up great new possibilities

The A10 being a budget device is besides the point, the moto g's had amazing development. What it depends on is a dev having the device and wanting to develop.

Yeah but no devs want any Samsung low end devices. Samsung has gathered a pretty bad reputation when it comes to development, so most devs avoid them.
hello, does anyone know any custom 64-bit ROM compatible with the A02S? I researched a lot, but I haven't found any so far, would anyone know to let me know if there is any compatible?

There isnt a LineageOS rom
Well, For the time being, There's no Custom ROMs for A02s. However, It does have treble support which means that you can install a GSI ROM on it.
Speaking about running 64-bit ROM on it, It would require a custom vendor which doesn't exist for this device yet.
So, the only thing to do is wait for someone to make one for it.
Someone please make one
