is there any kernel update to version 3.8 or above - Xiaomi Redmi 1S

hi guys never started a thread so sorry if im making any mistakes
my redmi 1s has kernel version 3.4 and i have an application which requires minimum of v3.8
i want you guys to help me get that upstreamed version if anybody has made or can make
so i can continue using the phone or ill have to turn it off forever:angel:

There is no kernel update for armani after 3.4.x.
A try was made to upstream the kernel by @rupanshji to 3.10.x, but there were quite a couple of problems there.
So, no.
For stability and security patches, you can try out LineageOS-11, built by me, with a guarantee for security patches every time the LineageOS community bumps upt the security string to the latest version. (if time permits)
It's up on XDA's general forums.

[ROM] [7.1.2] [UNOFFICIAL] [NON-DEV] LineageOS 14.1 Xperia M

Since the Xperia M aka nicki is no longer maintained I decided to start my own build and I thought I share it with the community.
Full Disclosure: I am not a developer. If there are bugs in any build, I cannot solve them. So always do a backup before flashing.
Also if you do not know how to flash: leave it be. I will not help with flashing problems.
I will try to keep it up-to-date.

Thank you bro for sharing and keeping the device alive ?
Btw you should consider posting this in android development forum so that people know abt it

I intentionally posted not in the development section, since I am not developing but only building.

Bro you shouldn't post it in original development but you can post it in Android development as you are building the rom for the device and many of the people port roms they also don't develop nor fix bugs but post it in Android development as they are building the rom for the device
sir @Komapatient , can you please share the source kernel or ROM?

Hi,
I don't understand your request. I pulled the sources from LinOS Git. There is nothing done on the source.

So basically you're keeping the ROM updated with latest changes from lineage OS source code , I mean bug fixes and security patches etc.

Yes. As a courtesy to the people who cannot compile their own ROM and to give s.th. back to the community who helped me a lot of times.
Hi @Komapatient,
Glad to see you once again around here, think we last talked when you were using the Xperia V on LineageOS.
Happy to see nicki is not fully dead and that its users can benefit from newer builds.
However there's a big concern here, I pushed the Nicki official removal for two important reasons :
- Device sources are no longer updated. If there's no real issue it's fine, but might appear.
> Issues like autobrightness flashing in a weird way upon device wake/unlock is among the biggest issue fixed / wip since the changes stopped.
> Checked in my huashan sources to find common relevant things for nicki, I just pushed an overlay cleanup and fix for MMS non-Data use.
- Kernel sources are highly outdated. To put this in a easy way, we can judge the security status
> to be around December 2016 and February 2017. Therefore the security version you share here is only the ROM sources,
> though a good portion of the security patches are actually to be worked upon for each kernel.
You can find our internal CVEs vulnerabilities tracker concerning the nicki 8x27 kernel here : https://cve.lineageos.org/android_kernel_sony_msm8x27
Someone should at some point stand up and start looking at them one by one,
fixing the ones related to the kernel version by cherry-picking, testing then pushing to gerrit.
You can take my sony_msm8960t kernel as reference if you wish, only the most recent CVEs are a work in progress,
and you should therefore easily see which CVEs concern your 3.4 kernel and find the commits in my history.
I'd gladly merge commits uploaded to gerrit if they are valid and properly authored / clean.
Hope this makes the current status of Nicki a bit more clear.
Bye.
@AdrianDC
Thank you for your clarification. The kernel sources are indeed a bummer, but as my coding skills are below zero. Sadly I am not able to help here out.

Trying to "steal" my commits from sony_msm8960t would be a good start,
you can also check the commits tags on Gerrit to see the CVE 20xx-xxxx related numbers
when the information was set as topic, helps clearing the list too.
Since the work is already done on our side, it shouldn't be a giant work to do,
and would be a good place to start with + bring back some security updates to the device.
Please try to update this rom

[REFERENCE] [OOS/CUSTOM] OnePlus 5 kernel source with linux-stable (4.4.162)

Introduction
Hello everyone, this is a thread to introduce both users and kernel developers to the concept of linux-stable as well as give developers some tips and a tree to either merge into their own, use as a base, or just as a reference. Feel free to ask questions and enjoy!
What is it?
linux-stable is, as the name implies, the stable branch of the Linux kernel, the base of Android. The phone could not run without the Linux kernel (at least not without reworking a lot of stuff). The Android kernels are based on the longterm stable trees:
Longterm
There are usually several "longterm maintenance" kernel releases provided for the purposes of backporting bugfixes for older kernel trees. Only important bugfixes are applied to such kernels and they don't usually see very frequent releases, especially for older trees.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Source: https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html
All Linux development happens on the master branch, which is governed by Linus Torvalds. When issues are discovered there, the fixes are applied then backported to these various stable trees for consumption. It is not uncommon for a fix to need to go back a few years.
There is a LOT more information available in the notes repo in the android-linux-stable organization if you care to learn more in-depth: https://github.com/android-linux-stable/notes
What does this mean for me?
If you are a developer, this means you should be merging these changes into your own tree. These are vetted, stable fixes to real world problems and they are being handed out for free. It does not take long to get up to date (as you can just merge this tree directly into your own or do it yourself using the tree as a reference) and once you are up to date, there is usually a release once every two weeks, give or take. I provide a rebuttal to a lot of various complaints here. If you still feel like there is a good reason not to do this, please let me know, I'll be happy to try and debate on it!
If you are a user, it means that you should be looking for and using kernels that have these fixes, as it shows the developers care for your security and stability. The current version for this device is 4.4.78 on OOS and 4.4.100 on Lineage while the current version upstream is 4.4.162 so all you need to do is go into Settings > About phone and look at the kernel version to know if you are up to date.
How do I use?
If you are a developer, the reference tree is located in the android-linux-stable organization: https://github.com/android-linux-stable/op5
There are three branches, one for OxygenOS 8.0 stable, one for OyxgenOS 8.1 beta, and one for Lineage 15.1.
This can either be merged into your existing kernel tree if you have one or be used as a fresh base. You do not need my permission to use it nor do you need to give me credit (although it would be appreciated).
If you are a user, use a kernel that has the changes added in!

From what I understand, you're creating a space where you're updating the stock Kernel to the latest Linux tags and creating a clean base that others can develop upon for a consistently updated kernel?
Seems to me like the epitome of a community project and in keeping with the heart behind open source.
Great work Nathan!!!

Exactly correct I have seen others grab my kernel and base their work upon (which I have zero issues with) but I know most do it because I've merged linux-stable as one of my first things. Figured I would make their lives easier (plus doing the conflict resolution summaries helped me validate my own work). I am mulling over posting these to the mailing lists so other mainline Linux developers with these devices can easily test new builds and get the latest fixes without needing to do the work themselves (even if they are fully capable).

This isn't a kernel you flash, this is something for developers to use in their own work. For example, my kernel Flash already has all of this, which you can flash.
Nice. How about GCC error fixes and wifi stack driver in this base?

I toyed with the idea of doing two branches (one for building, one for usability) but decided against it as 1. I want this source to be as plain as possible and 2. It doesn't fully fit with the idea of this project. This purely to help developers get up and running with linux-stable, not a fully fledged custom kernel. I will consider adding the GCC fixes to the usability README though, that could be useful.
You are a true asset to this community!
4.4.103 has been merged in, with conflict notes updated accordingly.
Oh boy oh boy it might be time for a rebase for me
4.4.104 has been merged in, with conflict notes updated accordingly.
I truly apologize to anyone who was tracking the tree because I just force pushed. I decided to update the location and branch name and wanted everything to be consistent. It is now up to date with 4.4.105.
I have updated the OP with the notes and tree location. The new notes are on the staging branch right now, they will be merged into master once everything is finalized.
I'm sorry being out off topic, but can i use this https://github.com/android-linux-stable/msm-3.18 kernel source as base for my soc (msm8937) sir?

This is my first Nexus / Pixel (VZW Galaxy Nexus I don't count), how soon does Google typically release the kernel source for the DP's? Only after the official software release?
I'm torn between stable + your kernel and DP + stock kernel.

It depends. Longer DPs like the initial release of a new major number (7.0, 8.0, etc) typically get kernel source within a month of the new DP version dropping. Smaller DPs usually don't get source until release (7.1 is the only other small DP that has ever happened so not much history).
:good::good::good:
I dont mean to go too offtopic here, but does that apply to the android source codes too? I meam does it usualy take that long for them to release the sources? I am guessing we still dont have any custom roms because the sources were not released by google yet?

The repo location has changed (new link is in the OP).
Additionally, an 8.1 branch has been created. Google went from 4.4.56 to 4.4.88 so the branch was redone to avoid conflicts and go with Google's resolution. The notes have been updated as well. Happy kerneling!

New Nebula 1.0.0-2e-7400 Kernel in the Works:

I started working on a New Oreo Nebula Kernel, using the latest Caf for the msm8996 Series kernels..........
I started a week ago, I originally wasnt going to do a new kernel for the HTC10, But Device started to tick me off and the guy that I was going to leave it in his hands, was busy,
and I was bored and needed to do something, So I started on it.........
Let me explain something first, This isnt a LAYOVER Stock source, Meaning, I didnt not take stock and lay it over CAF,
first off that would be next to impossible with the 7400 series CAF that I used.. 7400 series is rebased CAF tag for 8.1 series kernel..
Stock source originally started with 02500, but seeing an update came out before they released it, they added in 03000 into their source..
Stock source = 3.18.63, which is 02500 in caf, 03000 = 3.18.66, HTC didnt change the sub to 66 but kept it 61.. Not sure why.. anyhow,
that is 8.0 Oreo Series, anyhow, as of Caf 05300 Oreo 8.1 Series started, CAF rebased that tag, First time I ever seen them do that..
Latest caf tag for msm8996 is CAF 07400 8.1 Series................
I originally Took the Caf 03000 8.0 Series and imported all Needed HTC components that allow HTC10 to boot and work.... I left out as much debugging and other un-needed HTC related crap
that did nothing but slow the device down.... I created a master Skeleton GIT Repo, that allowed others to take and mod to their liking..
after I finished with the master, I decided I wanted to grab the latest CAF, again 07400, and then I picked all my own commits again from master into the 07400 with a few manual changes that I had to make
for it to work right, Then Created a new master based on the 07400 tags.
From the 07400 tags, I started working on Nebula 1.0.0-2e-7400, 2e = 2nd Edition, and the 7400 = Caf Tag.....
I have working builds but Choose not to release anything on xda at this point, More testing has to be done.. If anyone is interested in testing,
then goto our Telegram Group, location in my Sig or our PureFusionOS thread..............
Nebula 2e is at its very early stages of custom mods.. So dont expect alot at this time........
I know this question will be asked, Will it work on my 7.x firmware or ROM.......
I used @flar2's commit to disable verify, allowing it to boot on all firmwares and ROMs, but Camera will only work on any rom with the 8.x blobs.....
So even know it boots on a ROM with 7.x blobs, the camera will crash unless your on 8.x blobs ROM.................
Reason be, cause I imported the stock camera from Oreo, so yes, it needs Oreo blobs to talk to hardware, otherwise it wont be able to handshake and just crash...
everything else works perfect from my testers point of view.. Some minor issues, but normally tracked down and fixed quickly....
This will be my Final Kernel work on the HTC10, after this I will most likely never work on the HTC10 again............ I am moving on....................
I just wanted to give one last thing to the public before I move on..............
ETA: Not sure.. Still testing............ Join our Telegram group to get access to test releases..............
Good luck
Great work !
Can i get one ?

[ROM][4.4][UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 16.0 with 4.4 kernel

LineageOS 16.0 for Xiaomi Mi 5 with 4.4 kernel
Remember this is a beta release, althought I've been using it for more than a week and it's working perfectly.
If you experience any bugs, panics or so, please report full logs to me (logcat and dmesg, you can look in /sys/fs/pstore)
Installation:
You can flash it on top of OFFICIAL 3.18 LOS also you can always go back within a dirty flash.
For safety reasons always perform a backup of your important data!
Features:
This is well-known LOS, none of the functionalities have been altered.
Build is running 4.4.189 kernel with many improvements over 3.18, it will keep this device alive for upcoming Android releases.
Kernel is suited with initial bug fixes, however, it's a stock kernel without any advanced tweaks. It's built with CLANG (!).
Working:
Probably everything!
Not working:
Kernel is permissive
Temporary MTP fix (I didn't have enough time to investigate it well):
Developer settings -> Default USB conf -> MTP -> connect cable -> profit
READ ONLY IF YOUR DEVICE IS ENCRYPTED:
There is an incompatibility between 3.18 and 4.4 kernels, you have to flash new TWRP with 4.4 kernel, otherwise your data partition will be DAMAGED!
Nevertheless there could be a need to full wipe your /data (magic Format Data button in TWRP) so perform a FULL BACKUP.
Download:
LineageOS zip
TWRP
Future development:
Device tree will be created from scratch over new Qualcomm tag to get rid of old junk. Full Treble compability will be provided.
More kernel bug fixes
Vendor update
FAQ:
Can I install XXX ? Does it support XXX ?
- It's still LOS, it supports everything what stock LOS does.
Can't you ship kernel package only?
- No, ROM has to be modified to meet 4.4 requriements. You can't flash 4.4 kernel on top of 3.18 ROM.
But why 4.4? Do I need it?
- More fixes, more performance, more support. If you want, search for kernel changelog.
EAS?
- Not now, there are more important things to work on.
If you want to buy me a coffee, please consider donating, I've put much effort to make it working.

@xNombre great job!
I'll be testing your ROM in the future for sure. Looks very promising.
It would be great if you pulled the Floppy Kernel mods to tweak your 4.4 kernel
(Just my wish)
However, congratulations man.
I really appreciate your effort I would love to test your ROM But I only want to know 2 things before if someone can help.
1. Can I use it as daily driver?
2. Android Auto is working?
3. Will I need to do clean flash for future updates? Atleast for couple weeks.
Thanks
I'm using it for two weeks and no problems here.
If Android Auto is working on official LOS it will for for mine, too.
Nope, not for now.
#edit
Here is the new kernel you can flash on top of my LOS. (DON'T FLASH IT ON ANYTHING ELSE)

@xNombre What is the reason behind choosing 4.4 instead of a newer LTS version like 4.9 or 4.14? Or was the decision out of your hands?
Damn, do you think it's easy to port it on 4.14? For small group of users? Totally for free?
Two devices were fried with 4.9 kernel test version and in result I've spent many many hours of work for nothing.
Och, and remember, I had to buy a new mobo to restore my dd.
msm8996 has official support of 4.4 kernel and that's enough. I won't go any further, even if it's possible.

Whoa, calm down, mate. I just wanted to know the rationale. Knowing that msm8996 supports 4.4 is good enough for me. :good:
Sorry to hear about the two damaged devices, though. That must have been extremely frustrating.

Damn, do you think it's easy to port it on 4.14? For small group of users? Totally for free?
Two devices were fried with 4.9 kernel test version and in result I've spent many many hours of work for nothing.
Och, and remember, I had to buy a new mobo to restore my dd.
msm8996 has official support of 4.4 kernel and that's enough. I won't go any further, even if it's possible.

Lots of love for 4.4 kernel.
Hello
Thanks for this amazing work.
I have a question (probably stupid) will voWifi work better than with a 3.18 kernel or there is no relationship between kernel and voWifi?
Thank you for your work. This is quite big actually.
Thx

There it no correlation between kernel and RIL. No changes here. Maaybe sth nice will happen with new vendor blobs but you have to wait for it.
great job, it heats a lot less than the miui .. today it's only the first day but it seems to me that the battery lasts much longer !!
