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.

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.

LineageOS FAQ
Why did Cyanogenmod end?
This statement from the CyanogenMod team explains where the company is headed from here. As far as why they has to discontinue Cyanogenmod:
The company is downsizing and will focus on a new project (the “Cyanogen Modular OS” program), and they are merely cutting off services that they believe they can no longer maintain. As a part of their consolidation, the company announced that many of their employees, including Cyanogen (Steve Kondik) himself, would part ways with the company.

What about nightlies?
As of 12.13.16 all cyanogen nightlies will no longer be supported.
As part of the ongoing consolidation of Cyanogen, all services and Cyanogen-supported nightly builds will be discontinued no later than 12/31/16. The open source project and source code will remain available for anyone who wants to build CyanogenMod personally.

What is LineageOS?
LineageOS is the successor to the popular CyanogenMod ROM. With an emphasis on openness, community development, and improvement of the stock Android experience, CyanogenMod supported dozens of devices officially with nightly updates, and unofficially, by the efforts of developers in the community, dozens more devices. LineageOS intends to pick up where CyanogenMod left off, but with a redoubled focus on being a grassroots community-focused development effort.
Where can I find LineageOS Builds?
We have not started doing official builds yet. One of the benefits of this being an open source project is that anyone can build it, but please be careful flashing builds you’ve downloaded from other sources. We will have some more information on when weeklies (or possibly nightlies) will be starting soon.

When builds of LineageOS start to show up, you can expect them to pick up right where Cyanogenmod left off and be nearly identical to the latest CM builds.
How can I participate?
LineageOS is looking for people to build slaves and build mirrors. If you have hosting resources that meet these requirements, then you can contact them here.
I will be updating this FAQ as more information comes out about LineageOS.
I loved cyanogenmod, i hope lineageOS keeps up cheers ! waiting for a build for Oneplus 3
So this may sound terrible dumb but I didn't find a clear answer around here, is Lineage based on 7.0?

CAF ROMs have nothing to do with Cyanogen Inc. Anyone can build their own ROM using CAF (Code Aurora Forum) which is led by Qualcomm.

Not yet, but it will be sooner or later. Mostly waiting for proper infrastructure for build servers.

It's based on 7.1.1 actually.

1. Did anyone offer servers for Lineage? (XDA)

Well :good:
there are so many unofficial lineageOS and cm, so which UNOFFICIAL lineageOS can we use among them as official rom?
i'm disappointed because the redmi 2 and the redmi 1 have roms before de mi3 i mean.... come on..
also still the same ui as cm14 the only new is the logo. well like shibba quote me in the lineage page.
I understand this disappointment which is because of too much of expectation from LineageOS. You need to understand that hundreds and thousands of developers are working on LineageOS to make it up and running even compromising their Christmas and New year celebration for this year just to make all of us happy.
Rebranding CyanogenMod to LineageOS is important. At this point of time it is necessary to make the infrastructure stable and hence most of them will be concentrating on that part while other individual developers contributing to the device tree they support which is eventually slowing the overall development process of LineageOS as a whole.
For now yes it will be no different to CyanogenMod but eventually you will get new features added to it. I hope you understand the complete picture.

You have to read more I guess.
CyanogenMod 13 Official = Android 6 rom supported by cyanogenmod (Lineage now) and receiving nightly via ota,directly from them.
LineageOS 14.1 Unofficial= Android 7.1.1. supporting by developers here in XDA merget by the code same as official versions.
Theres two different versions of android.It's unofficial when its not realised by lineageOS team.Anyway a lot of devs here making unofficial builds which are very stable as daily drive.When come official builds again u will be able to recive them over OTA.

I can't try as preformance, battery drive because is probably for not my device BUT. I would say yes, for me personally CM/LineageOS official or unofficial is much better than cm 13. Better battery life and preformance. Yeah, well Facebook is little bit buggy but I guess need time to be optimized for Android 7.

Thanks for helping
Cyanogenmod14 vs lineageOS14 (both of them are UNOFFICIAL builds)
Wich one is better than other one between those?
Or are both of them 100% similar?
Bugs are normal in testing roms

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?
https://github.com/thune-xiaobai/android_device_xiaomi_sagit
Thanks for any help in this regard.
i think its a "generic"

No, Xiaomi released the kernel sources for Mi6 few days ago.
@demon000 lineage os 15.1 is a very good rom but now with pie have been mergen lots of patches, useful features and more...
there is already an unofficial build but it could be better official supported builds weekly with eas and f2fs merged
hope in your answer
if there are any ready developers to build official 16, it will be amazing :good:
there is (almost) no difference between official and unoffical. what do you expect from official los?
according to your forum posting history, you change your rom almost everyday - give your new rom a chance - make at least a one-week test run!

Well, i guess i can tell that xiaomi msm8998 is pretty close to it's official lineage 16.0 release. You shouldn't expect that it somehow runs better then the unofficial variant obviously. Stay tuned
I'm waiting!
Whenever you see the first sightings of AOSP A13 then we'll start to see custom roms, after that Lineage will build and then we'll likely see more roms as many use lineage base
soon
Any millennium now....
There is already a Evolution X alpha build of Android 13 for lemonades (works on both lemonadep [OnePlus 9 Pro] and lemonade [OnePlus 9]). With that being said, I do not recommend using it as your daily driver. We are likely not gonna see a relatively stable version of Android 13 for a few weeks or months at least. If you want get the link for the Evolution X Android 13 alpha then you can find it under their SourceForge.

Thanks for confirming, previous builds on Android 12 were unified for our OnePlus 9 Pro. So it is a slightly confusing that they aren't for Android 13 yet. I guess if you give it a little bit, they should push a unified build for Android 13, as the device maintainer for us is actually one of the core dev team members that work the Evolution X source. Another thing that makes it rather likely that we will be getting it soon is that they are already starting to release Android 13 builds on certain devices like the K20 Pro/Mi 9T, albeit they aren't stable which is expected for such a new version.

yes, no need to be in such a hurry either, I bet Lineage will try an a13 version soon too, but unlikely to be stable for use soon, we are still polishing the a12 with our latest firmware

If the past is any indication, I don't think we'll see anything related to Lineage 20 show up in the LOS Gerrit until later this year or early next year. They're always a bit slower out of the gate with new Android releases, but that's usually to their advantage, as their initial releases are usually much more stable. Any Android 13 ROMs that come out now can definitely be categorized as "bleeding edge," and if you rely on your phone as a daily driver... well, I wouldn't trust them right now on mine. Best to wait out the initial teething period is my philosophy.
First LineageOS 19.1 Builds were relased at 26 april 2022, while android 12 debut was in october 2021. At least six months of wait...
Which means that it's likely we'll see the first LineageOS 20 builds some time in January or February 2023. Though, perhaps it won't take quite as much work as it did going from Android 11 to 12, since 13 is more of an iterative update than the substantial one that 11-->12 was. I suppose we'll find out soon enough.
How about we work on the stability of custom A12 ROMs first? Remember, the ROMs can sometimes only be as good as their sources they come from.

Yeah, I don't know why people are in such a hurry to keep upgrading. For me, a fully rooted phone on A11 or A12 is all I need....

Never saw the need to move beyond OOS 11.2.10.10 and Magisk 23, especially after seeing the reactions to OOS 12. When OOS 13 comes out, I'll wait for a couple of months before deciding if I want it. My phone is not a toy.

In my honest opinion A13 has a better chance of being more stable the A12.1 roms as the transition from A11 to A12 was quite the jump but A13 isn't that large of an update and therefore hopefully after proper sources are released it shouldn't be all that bad. I do however think it would be a waste of time to build anything before OOS13 vendor comes out because it'd just be a hassle to rebase that soon
I am using crdroid, they rebased and they released 7.18 (going from 7.14) then deleted the source to go A12(L), and for whatever reason most roms just jump on 12 and abandon 11...
I hate the UI in 12 and crdroid is still getiing a11 updates like the Nexus 5 got up to 7.20 or something before the devs device broke. but no one is maintaining/compiling an a11 crdroid for apollon.
does anyone know a rom that is still being maintained on A11? and getting releases for apollo??
