Kernel for Moto G7 was Released (Snapdragron 632) - Xiaomi Redmi 7 Questions & Answers

Moto G7 kernel was released... It has the same processor as the Redmi 7. How can this be used towards a custom rom?

There is also the kernel source code of the honor 8c you can find it on Huawei open source website but it is based on Android Oreo.
Source code of similar devices might help but having the device's specific source code will make things way easier.
Devs will have to look through all the differences between the two devices.

So apparently you dont have to request for the source code, you can just download it it from the consumer.huawei.com site. With this being available I really hope it will bring about some custom roms or even some custom EMUI 4.0 interface. Open Source Code
Also, something I didnt realize but Huawei has a very deeply supported dev center. From creating application to themes. Many countries have became apart of the their program. The only one I didnt see was the US. Huawei Developer Page
Source code for the Hauwei Mediapad M2 has been updated: Source Code dated 2017
Also an update to a Open Source Code for the M2-802LD Source Code dated 2018

How Lineage OS build is possible without the kernel?

I'm quite new to Snapdragon SoC's and coming from a MediaTek one, having some trouble to understand the concept of kernel in Lineage OS build.
ASAIK, Mi6 isn't a supported device (yet )
As Xiaomi also hasn't released the kernel source, how is the unofficial Lineage OS build made?
Also from where @xiaobai112220 got this kernel source?

Thanks for any help in this regard.
i think its a "generic"

No - that's the kernel for a specific device
Under gpl license rules kernel sources must be made available.
This is not the source code for Miui
See the following about kernel licence

The ROM came with the phone so pathetic.

Question Why we still don't have LineageOS 19?

Why we still don't have LineageOS 19?
What is missing ?
I asked luk and he told me build quality is not enough good in his opinion (that was month ago)
A couple Asus and Pixels got it so far, according to this post.

Kernel source is here but, judging by the performance of the stock rom, it's probably not great as a stable base :
GitHub - OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_sm8350 at oneplus/SM8350_S_12.0_9Pro
Contribute to OnePlusOSS/android_kernel_oneplus_sm8350 development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
OnePlus themselves seem to have been pushing 12.1 to earlier models and are probably just going to go for a better Android 13 experience for the 9/10 models.
Even Google has made a mess of Android 12 on their own Pixels.
You can always check the OnePlus github at the url above and search for the chipset which you can confirm using the GSMArena page for the phone :
OnePlus 9 Pro - Full phone specifications
www.gsmarena.com
When you do, you'll see the latest revisions pushed by OnePlus along with the Android base, SM8350_S_12.0 in the above case. If you don't see the current version then there's no kernel source pushed by OnePlus which means custom rom modders need to try using previous kernel source. That's why all the Android 12 roms have been using the Android 11 kernel and why the phone had to have OxygenOS 11 before flashing

Until now yes but judging by what was said above, even the A12 kernel isn't up to scratch for custom roms.
