Latest versions of Lineage OS for Nexus 5 (hammerhead) - LineageOS Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have a Nexus 5 running on the latest stock Marshmallow build, but rooted with Chainfire SuperSu.
I'd like to flash Lineage OS on it, but I understand that the latest Lineage OS doesn't support the Nexus 5.
What are the newest versions that do? I'd like to have it on Nougat or Oreo.
Thanks!

Custom rom is device dependent like that: https://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/orig-development/rom-lineageos-16-0-nexus-5-t3921162

That's an unofficial build. Are there official builds? Didn't Lineage OS use to support the Nexus 5?

How fast can we expect CM 13?

Q: When can we expect CM 13?
Doesn't CyanogenMod already build nightlies for CM13? You need to flash the Cyanogen Recovery first before installing CyanogenMod as far as I know. I don't know whether anyone has built the recovery yet for the Swift.
(If you mean the stock Cyanogen OS, it will be a while before COS updates to Marshmallow.)

If you mean CyanogenOS, the one that comes with the phone, then WileyFox has said:
"There will be updates available for Cyanogen OS for the Swift. About Android 6 Marshmallow, there is still no information available."

flashing unofficial Lineage os 15.1 through 14.1 then ota or miui leaked then?

in order to flash lineage os 15.1 unofficial which of the following way should i adopt--
1. flashing 14.1 lineage os unofficial first(as rn5 pro is on miui 9.2.7 based on nougat) then updating it internally via ota or unofficial 15.1 via twrp
2.. flashing miui beta leaked based on oreo then lineage os 15.1 unofficial flashing?
how should i proceed kindly help??
First flash any of the miui oreo build then you can go for any oreo based custom build like RR or lineage
How can i upgrade via twrp... Without loosing the apps n data... Keeping fone as it is... Like it happens in ota.

Will Lineage OS 14.1 be the last official LOS it will ever get?

The latest version is 15.1. I thought N7 would get 15.1 eventually, but now I get the feeling that 14.1 would be the last official LOS for it. Am I right?
If so, I would like to move to another custom OS.
What's 14.1 based on?

Interesting. Do you know if it works well on the Nexus 7 2013. Mines become slow now, maybe flash this to give it new life. Do you also know if Netflix works ok?

Its difficult to meet the charter of lineage which they began after 15.1 (oreo) for such old device.
But then, never say never. Two separate teams are working on it, lets hope we get official this time.
I can confirm without a shadow of a doubt that LOS 15.1 with Oreo 8.1 is, in fact, running and working fine on my Nexus 7 2013 (flo), can't comment though on the LTE version as there may be other demons to trample on that one. I am amazed at how fast and beautiful the OS actually is.

Oreo, Pie, and Newer

Is there a custom Oreo, Pie or newer Android version for i747M?
Did anybody try to install Lineage OS 15.1 or Lineage OS 16 into i747M?
Thanks!
