Well that's how the Nexus 5 was ported, but you'll need to modify the kernel a bit, I think, you'll also need the actual Sailfish ROM, here are the repo's for the Nexus 5, have a look at the kernel files, compare it to the standard CM11 kernel, and play close attention to the Kickstarter file (there is a link for the generic sailfish image in the kickstarter file), that will show what and where all the stuff is collected together, you then use the kickstarter file to make a sailfish image for your phone.
Have a look at the mer project wiki page, that will tell you some more about how to make an image.
nexus4 xiaomi mi2
thanks for your help
i realize that it is much harder to port sailfish than something more common
the nexus 4 port shoud be more easier to port, to xiaomi mi2 right?
you'll still have to modify some stuff to get it working, but in theory it could be easier.

if you can be patient the jolla team will release hadk soon. This means hardare adaption development kit. After this it will be much easier to port
sailfish os on other devices.
Sorry if there is a more appropriate thread but if anyone is still interested:

Not sure how far he is into the port though.
Hi everyone
I wonder if there's someone who have the ability and the imterest to port B2G on this good device, or if there's someone crazy enough to guide me doing it
I think B2G may run faster on this device due to his lightweight nature
PS: Sorry for my "english"
No need of porting. It is available as apk for android. On Firefox official website
Hello agin !
Did someone spoke that what I found on Google ?
Someone already started working on Lineage OS 14.1 to bring it to Axon 7

Looks very interesting, thanks!
The build is very experimental and nowhere near ready. Some bugs include, Sound, Camera, Wifi however it boots. I dont have a cyanogenmod account so i didn't post it there
What Gapps are you guys using for this?

definitely not bad at all for a first build. I really can't wait for a fully working version! Thanks!

Can you post your tree or sources? Any way we could help?

You seem to be under the impression that I built that. I did not.

Gives that impression. Either way, whoever did, it might be helpful.

ZTE said that they were going to do everything they could to help officially support Cyanogenmod on the Axon 7. Well, that project is now called Lineage OS. It would make me feel better if we could get an official response from ZTE. Otherwise, I'm just going to assume that they're just like every other Chinese manufacturer, and only care about releasing new phones instead of supporting older ones (I'm looking at you Huawei).

From what I recall, the agreement ZTE made was with an employee of Cyanogen. That person (who provided backing & assistance to the Cyanogenmod project) has since left the company, and Cyanogen Inc. has gotten out of the whole "community OS" aspect of the company, and closed Cyanogenmod up. The community that operates Lineage has no sort of ties to ZTE, nor business ties to another company (like Cyanogenmod was to Cyanogen Inc.).
ZTE did, however, send some files to the volunteer community team working on CM13. iirc, it wasn't all that helpful, but it was something at least...
LineageOS will officially support the Axon 7. Now only an early alpha is available with the typical problems of early versions, however an official support means a commitment. I contacted them to let them know that the ROM in the official page was for another device. They fixed it after a few hours with the LineageOS 14.1 v2016.12.30, they also told me that there will be more news on this device very soon.
Fingers crossed that very soon means this week. I can't believe the amount of love the one+ receives over our A7. We have dual speakers & an SD slot!!!

I doubt ZTE has anything to do with LineageOS.

They don't...our Lineage support was done by a team member not even by me. Support for 14.1 is not true though. I'm the only person at the moment who has 14.1 in development. Although ZTE has nothing to do with Lineage support they have provided me code to help bringup N development.
Nice to hear that they are helping.

LineageOS officially supporting the ZTE Axon 7 doesn't mean ZTE is supporting LineageOS. There are dozens of devices supported by LineageOS without official support from their manufacturers. However the success of Nougat for this device will depend on the release of the kernel code by ZTE to everyone.

These are good, very good news. If ZTE is willing to share their code, even before the official release, custom ROMs will have a much quicker development time, less buggy, and more people will purchase this excellent device. ZTE seems to be learning the lesson.
I am looking forward to the development for this device and the ZTE Axon 7 mini.
Hope there will be a lot of alternative ROMs ... :good:
Thanks in advance to @Unjustified Dev

They is a ROM in dev section already. LinageOS 14.1. Released yesterday.
Im tired of seeing these Note 7 roms and I want to relive these Cyanogenmod days but Cyanogenmod is dead. Is there a possibility that there is a way we can get developers to build a rom for the superiour Note 4? I like Lineage OS because of its OTA function that releases bug fixes and updates. Im not offending anyone or anything... Its just not my taste. I think 7.X is a big milestone for the Note 4 since Samsung wont release any more upgrades anymore due to its age. I know some people who want 7.X so bad but their good phones are "TOO OLD" I will sit here and wait til someone builds it.

This forum is NOT a forum for your to request Lineage for your device! It's a forum for the discussion of development of LineageOS. These thread I'm already seeing pop up about people asking for Lineage posts are ridiculous. This isn't a place to come and ask for people to port ROMs to your device, so please don't treat it as such. Thank you.

You will need to check the forum for your device.
