So is there anyone who knows links to where we can follow the progression of the developers porting to other phones of Gingerbread? Do we know who the developers are? Is Sombionix team working on it? Eugene??
Anyway. If you have any information put it here and we can have a collective information on the subject.
i've been following eugene, supercurio, barak, etc. on twitter.

Hey guys, sorry if this is an obvious question.
I'm trying to get my facts straight on the various CyanogenMod builds.
1.) First, what is going on with Official CyanogenMod and HD2/Leo? Are we in the process of transitioning to "Experimental" (a la the Galaxy S)? There is HD2 specific code in the github repository, but no official support? From reading the "unofficial nightly" thread, it sounds like certain steps are being taken to ensure the HD2 code is in compliance with various programming practices required by CyanogenMod devs? Is this explanation anywhere close to the current state of things? Will the HD2 eventually get a subforum with Experimental (and eventually Stable) downloads in the CM forums? Or, as others have said, will our WinMo base prevent official support from ever happening?
2.) Just to confirm -- the unofficial nightly build is more of an actual "from the ground up" build, whereas the other ROMs are derivatives of other builds? Is there any easy explanation of the differences that someone with some slight programming exposure might understand?
Thanks in advance for any advice you might have to offer.
EDIT: P.S. Please don't take this as "Why don't we have .... yet?" whining. I'm just trying to wrap my head around the whole AOSP/Cyanogenmod issue.
I posted irresponsibly. Sorry dudes!

Hey Developers,
I have already built a CM ROM from source for my LG Optimus L7, which wasn't that hard. But now I want to build a ROM from Android Source (AOSP). So my question is: Can somebody give me a guide for the L7 or some advice for building an AOSP ROM?
Thanks:good:

From AOSP you will have to take almost exactly the same steps. Basically there is nothing different to building CM, AOSP, PAC, CarbonRom, etc., but the source of compilation is different and also the thing you will have to do is add the device specific libraries etc. into the AOSP rom sources on your PC and then compile.
Here, who want to start in development, you can find Lenovo Opensource files.
Let the development beggin :cyclops:

And don't ask how-to here, there's plentty of threads here at xda to teach you with step-by-step.
ENJOY!!! :silly:

Okay people, i know things do not look very good for this device, and yeah, we all are frustrated with the fact that no one is building any good rom(except this Resurrection Remix(on http://forum.le.com/in)) for this device.
I am thinking of trying to build the LineageOS for this device.
I am new to building roms, I have not developed any rom before, so this will be my very first experience.
I would very much appreciate any help that any of you may offer regarding any thing.
Be it any tutorial/guide, source codes, testers, or any thing else you have in mind.
I would be downloading the sources today and will look around for tutorials for porting roms with source code that i already have (thanks to that resurrection remix ROM dev 19wisnia89(on http://forum.le.com/in)).
I would also be contacting other devs of other devices for any help regarding the porting process and stuff.
If you know these stuff and would not mind helping me out, it would be very nice.
Please quote me on the reply here or PM me with anything here
Note: I would be needing testers because i don't quite own the device for myself, it's my mother's and i can't risk tempering with it, but I still want it to have a dev support.
All the best for the success, I also tried to compile the kernel and the source code is working completely fine without any modification but I was confused about the process of building the android So I will always help you whenever needs my help. and if you can guide me to building guide then i will also love to try that.

I have gone through the porting guide on CM wiki(through archive.org) a couple of times and a few more places, I have not downloaded the source code of Lineage os, but I have source code of cm13, so i'll build it first,
Hi all,
Iam actually interested in building ROM's, porting rom's and features to contribute to the community. But one of the major hurdle is finding right resources and right testing methods. So I would like to request senior members with some experience in porting ROM, multi rom, TWRP etc., to please create a tutorial or even provide few sources where a newbie can learn about ROM development. If not a tutorial, please just publish the methods you followed during the developments you have made. This would help the community by easing the pressure on currently limited good developers. Thanks in advance.:good:

Heyyo, actually a good guide would be to check out OmniROM wiki. They have a guide to porting ROMs from other ROMs to theirs. Otherwise? Please check the commit history of any rom that the LeEco Le Max 2 has been ported to.
https://github.com/omnirom/Docs/blob/master/Porting_Omni_To_Your_Device.md
Of course, every ROM is different so for other ROMs hopefully they have a guide otherwise you'd have to check commit history of other devices and see what they had to change.
You can also find a lot of the recent work the Le Max 2 community has done on here for device, kernel and vendor.

I can't recommend the omni way to build. It's harder for a newbie to build omni other then lineage. At least that's my opinion

Here's the link to build lineage specially for our device. If you have any problems, pm me. I can guide you through the whole process to build a rom. I started from nothing and learned how to build roms with help from great people so it's not that hard
