I was hoping to ask this in the unified dev forum, but my post count is too low.
albinoman887 mentioned here that a build is Coming Soon, so I guess I'm just expressing that there are those of us who'd love to try it out as soon as a build is available. Thanks

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!
Coming from Galaxy s3, the only thing I miss on my s4 is the lack of a good aosp kernel. It is sad to see that at present there are no aosp/cm kernels under development. On my s3 there was boeffla kernel available which had a lot of settings we could play with and get the most out of the phone. I hope someone can take up this herculean task and provide us with a super kernel. I know it is just too much to ask for but if someone could take the initiative, me and some of the users here would be more than willing to participate as beta testers and do our part.
Wrong thread.THIS IS ANDRIOD DEVOLOPMENT THREAD.and this post is actually useless as it is a request for ETA.Also persues kernel dev told that he will work on this when he get time.Totally unnessary .please do some research as one of members have same post in s4 QandA
Keep calm.Coz IPL 8 belongs to KKR
The time spent whining about no development would be better spent in learning how to do it yourself. Remember, this is XDA-DEVELOPERS, not XDA-USERS and the developers don't have to do anything if they don't want to.
Thread closed.
Hi there,
I've recently updated my tablet to a custom ROM for the first time and this is my first post here, so please correct me right away if there is a better place for asking such kind of questions.
My question is specifically about omni-4.4.4 (FINAL). For now I'm not interested in the 5.1.1 branch (NIGHTLY) at all, as I'm looking for stability.
So the question: is there any kind of update policy for the OMNI-4.4.4 branch? In the light of the recently published security flaws in Android, I'd like to know more about my options. I don't mind to try to build the rom myself, provided that the source code in the branch is updated regularly.
Stagefright-Bug-Fix for Galaxy Nexus Kitkat 4.4.4 (post #2) answers the question about the forthcoming update.
Good to know that "FINAL" doesn't mean that support for the branch is over.
Entropy512, do you make any kind of announcement after the source code has been updated? I'm just wandering what is the best way to follow the process.

We'll make some sort of announcement when it happens.
I have the day off Friday and will hopefully be far enough ahead in the apartment-cleaning process to work on this.
Hi, I found a ROM around the web of Android Nougat 7.1 for our Z3. It seems is under development but it boots and works. I don't know the issues or problems that it has so I wanted to post it to try it and make known. The rom is here: dl.myself5.de/leo/CarbonROM/
It is not my project, is from Myself5 that I think is user of XDA. All the recognitions towards him.
If this topic is not in the correct forum, please the admins move it.
I'll check that. I have a z3 free to test

That rom IS 5.1 Lolipop, not Nougat.
Are you actually serious?
What do you think, why is there no thread for this already? Everyone I shared this link with I told its very early WIP, and not to share it.
I uploaded the builds so that I can download them to my laptop, and that some people who wanted a 7.1 build were able to use it.
While you even know that those are my builds, you did at no point think about sending a PM to me, asking if its ok to create a thread for it.
With that, I just deleted all prereleases of Carbon from my server, never ever expect me to release some preview or WIP builds again.
That does not only count for leo. Have fun being responsible for the deletion of all testbuilds for leo, aries, sumire and i9100.
@caqo71 that assumption is wrong. CR-5.1 is the internal versioning number for Android 7.1 (same as CM is using 14.1). Those builds were Android 7.1.0_r7.
I reported the thread, hoping to get it closed, and I will reference it every time someone asks me where the preview builds did go to. Have a very fun time on XDA.
EDIT: In case it was unclear: I am not against you posting builds of Carbon on XDA, of cause the whole team invites people to compile Carbon for their devices. What I am sepecifically against here, is that, instead of putting your own effort in here, and compiling it on your own, you made a thread about my builds, which is totally not ok, especially not without asking me.
Thread closed.
You cant just share stuff you find on the internet. You need to follow the forum rules (rule 12) before you decide to share it
Nougat kernel sources by hridayhs but no android n build yet https://github.com/HridayHS/android_kernel_xiaomi_msm8937/tree/cm-14.1?files=1
Please developers start building nougat builds we are lacking behind
porting device to n isnt that easy kernel needs to be patched to 3,18,31 you need blobs and tree
MIUI forum is full of those stupid polls.. please don't start with it on xda
uselles pos like miui forum to many poll but no rom
keep up up guys
True... It makes no difference... :/
That's what I m saying hriday hs created a kernel source for andriod nougat that is branch cm 14.1 see main post for link of kernel source
I agree with the stupid poll bit. I don't know if these people lie in their bed thinking up these foolish polls. They should find something useful to occupy themselves.
If you think a developer will just see the poll and think "Hey it's true, I should make a Nougat ROM" you're thinking something in the wrong way. Please stop, this is not the MIUI forum.
"We are lacking behind" ... dude this is not a race.
Remember they are normal people with work and other duties, asking them for work on Nougat ROMs using this passive-agressive way will only make them angry. Contribute in a more useful way like donating money, asking for help to other devs, or learning to make a device tree + compile source code.
If you want stable nougat rom then please donate this guy: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-3s/how-to/moving-to-red-mi-3s-t3572896
yeah
