Making a Port using my device - LineageOS Questions & Answers

I need device tree and port so Lineage OS can make ROM for Ultra Smart 7.
How do i make port using my phone so i can get Device tree?

Is there a general guide? I have found some info how to build LineageOS for supported devices. But I have not seen any info how to integrate (for example) the Sony sources with LineageOS.

They (the current release builds) are based on Android Lollipop (5.1.1) so no.
Their git shows that a nougat based version is WIP, so maybe once work on that is complete.
Nothing really different then Kali for android and that seemed to have burned out as you lose many device features as it is made with a different purpose in mind.

Porting a nougat device tree and kernel to oreo (or mm to n)

What is the process of upgrading an older kernel and device tree to a new android version?
E.g. I understand that oreo has a new device tree layout - how do I see that, and once I have got it, where would I start to port oreo to a nougat tree and kernel?
Sorry if this is an silly question - this is the first time I have considered upgrading a device to an unsupported android version and I am not sure where to begin
I've seen this guide referenced before. Not a direct answer to your question though https://forum.xda-developers.com/chef-central/android/guide-android-rom-development-t2814763

Port new lineage os to mako(LG Nexus 4)

Hi. I want to try to build lineage os 17/18 for my old phone. I have env and I already build package for other phone. For Nexus 4 there and only some old lineage os 15 builds. How to prepare lineage os 18 based on lineage os 15? Is it possible or maybe it needs to be done from scratch. Is there any instruction how to do this?
Porting a ROM means there's a similar device with a working LineageOS on it. Which means it's already built, and only small modifications to make it stable for you.
Porting doesn't work the way you described. You can't build Android 12 on top of Android 8, every new major Android update, Google releases a new source code.
Then, manufacturers/developers modify it to their sweets. What you want to do is to build LineageOS 18/17 for an unsupported device. There's a lot of guides online about it. The context matters.
Can you share some links about building lineage os for unsupported devices? Will it help somehow when there are some old versions builds?
