Any chance of having cynogenmod or slimkat on x or xl.
I want my next phone to be supported by those.
Thanks

There was news some time ago that Abhisek Devkota has a device and probably working on it. Need to wait a bit more. Device is not on the market yet, well it is starting to be sold so we need to wait. Although I think that even though specs are not super this phone will be very interesting option if equipped with CM11.
link to source info

well nokia x and nokia xl have the same hardware and system with my phone s100
current roms available are

hopefully if cm11 will be available on your phone then it will be available to use too...

Are there any information if they are going to realease it? Samsung does also push their sources just a while after the realeas of a phone.

Are the companies who use the AOSP as 'base' for their ROMs committed to realease the sources?

We could write an Email.. Maybe they will tell us when they are going to release it. I don't know the release date of the the Nokia Xs, but I think they are going to push the sources a few days after the phone got released. Samsung and all the other companies are doing it the same way. Before I bought a N5, I have had an Ace II and we never got a full source code. Functions like OMX were very hard to get working without these sources. So we can just hope that they are dev-friendly and release a complete kernel source.

I would advise neither, coming from a device that uses a similar SoC. you don't have full hardware acceleration on newer android versions, and the gpu is really not all that good..
I would advise staying clear of the Nokia X

Yes, it is true, on my huawei y300 (same cpu and gpu) on kitkat there is not full HWA, ui is laggy and play games is very bad, this because qualcomm does not release adreno 200 drivers for android 4.3-4.4... hope that the cm team can do something

err, it's because we don't support 4 layer composition. nothing to do with the adreno blobs
Kitkat not possible on Nokia X then?

Cm news
"During our trip to MWC at the end of February we were able to secure an X from the Nokia team. There has been a substantial interest in this device from the community. While we won’t commit to releasing a proper ‘release’ (the hardware is more than a bit lacking) we have sent our X to dhacker29 to get up a source tree for the community. Just because CM won’t release a build doesn’t mean we can’t help other ROMs in the process. Nokia, to their credit, has already provided kernel source upon request and the bootloader is unlocked on this device – plenty of fun for the community to be had"
dhacker 29 is a very good developer hy is mantling the official cm for moto g

Does anyone know if huawei have released the kernel source code for the mediapad m2? I would like to start a port of cyanogenmod to it.

Would be great ... I think the hw is okay but the original sw is ....
I've sent huawei a kind email reminder that the kernel sources need to be published . Let's see if I get an answer at all. Having CM on the M2 would be a great thing
You guys never even bothered to just go to Huawei's website and looking for downloads? The kernel is right there at the bottom of http://m.huawei.com/enmobile/consumer/tablets/detail/mediapad-m2-en.htm , just select the Downloads-tab. It has been there for months by now.
You won't believe how many sites I've been through to find the kernel. That one I never went to. Thanks again for the link!
[edit]
Well... it's not really the kernel I was looking for. It's for the M2 10". It has additional fingerprint reader, bigger screen, etc. If you do the same for the M2 10 inch variant, you get "No results found" in the download section.
After finding the right person to contact, they said the kernel sources should be available as of 12th September 2016. Let's see if that happens. I'll update this thread when I get the sources.
Wow, this would be awesome! I am wondering why such a great device has no additional ROMs.

Those are for the M2-8 variant. The M2-10 has more hardware (stylus). Would be really keen on getting the board config for the 10-inch variant
They finally put up the source code for the M2 10-inch variants!! Even for both flavours (M2-A01L and M2-A01w)!

It would be the best thing in the world if you would work on the m2 8.0 lte also
I'll be your number 1 tester and best friend!!!

I only have the 10-inch wifi tablet... But I'm sure other people are doing some dev work in the 8 inch variant
Hi guys actually i'm very interested to buy this device, but i don't know if oneplus released the source code of every chip in oneplus 3, because i want flash it but i won't lose for example the camera or audio quality. So someone could tell me if this is possible or oneplus doesn't allow it?

No they haven't released the source for everything, but stock rom is much better than any I've previously used so I'd go for it.

You are out of luck then. The only source that will be released is that which is covered by the GPL. Which means only the kernel source. You have to remember the drivers and such are closed sourced as they are with all devices.
Thank you guys for your answer
Hi, do you know if there is a version or there will be a version for this smartphone? I only see cm13 and it is June 2016.
First rule of Lineage is we do not as for etas
I understand then that for exynos you will not make rom? I say it to take it into account for upcoming smartphone
Unless LineageOS is going to run an all TouchWiz framework (More unlikely than a shark attacking on land), then I'd guess that it will have the exact same official support for all the exact same officially supported devices, long story short the last Note device with official support was pre-Note3 if my memory is correct. & any Exynos CM roms are half-cocked and never really expected to get past a User Build.....
Thanks

Anytime! I just wish we had a better chance than we do for custom builds but Samsung really doesn't care about us only consumers.
Seems ta be very low interest in the Mi6 from developers. Will it change or will the Mi6 be forgotten soon?
probably because lack of kernel source + online only phone sold in asian markets

There is already LineageOS... and just because there are no other roms, it does not mean there arent devs for this phone!
It does not make any sence to work on LineageOS based roms if LineageOS is not stable because the other roms will have even more issues!
The lack of kernel sources is a bit pita, but we have to wait for xiaomi here...
Good morning!
Seems like the source code of Pad 5 kernel is released, good news!
Lets see developers what gonna do.
GitHub - MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource at nabu-r-oss
Xiaomi Mobile Phone Kernel OpenSource. Contribute to MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource development by creating an account on GitHub.

That are not news. The kernel sources have been released last year. Short after the Pads Release. So far there are no working custom roms or recoveries. It looks like that no experienced ROM Dev owns a Nabu.
Tests by unexperienced rom builders:
Broken TWRP: https://github.com/bm0x/twrp_device_xiaomi_nabu
Broken LOS Tree: https://github.com/faberto/android_device_xiaomi_nabu
Ohh... I didn't know, that's so sad...
Thanks for the information!
I bought this tablet because it's nice (value-for-money-wise), but I also hoped there would be some dev support to give it awesome roms. That's definitely the case for the Mi Pad 4. Any reason why this one is not that popular? Or is it still too soon?

Maybe because it has not been released in India yet.
im just wondering,
this pad is excellent.
what exactly do you expect to be added if port rom is developed?
Netflix HD is not working for me (widevine problems on a global stock firmware, I don't understand why), and after some usage, I prefer the stock android / pixel experience UI more than MIUI
