Hi Guys, here are the Download Link for official Lineage OS for m7_u, m7_ul and m7_vzw
have fun regards, and Thanks to the Guys from Lineage.
Edit:
Now there is no official Update for two weeks because they have no Maintainer for the device so they dropped support for our m7. As long as there is no friendly guy who starts maintaining a 4 Year old device it looks bad for official updates. And that propably will make some problems for other Custom Roms or Kernels which are based on LineageOS in the future. But no matter we have great devs here on XDA and out there, they work hard to bring the latest Software to our m7 (SlimRoms, XenonHD, RR, AICP all those still official support the m7). And we have some other great devs here which bring us other unofficial Roms with very good results regarding to Android N.

LTE/4G should work with the GSM Version.
What about issues?
Here is my experience with 14.1.20170130 nightly. I have been using it since yesterday morning and I am astonished by how well it works. LTE, GPS, WiFi... everything works. Since yesterday, I made a few phone calls, used GPS navigation, browsed the web, installed a few apps and even played Ingress (which is kinda resource hungry) for a couple of hours. The system is rock solid (could not say that about CM 13) and even with storage encryption enabled the phone seems to run even faster than with the stock HTC ROM.
Great job! How can I buy you guys at LineageOS a beer?

This is what they write about that "We are currently not accepting monetary donations. This message will be removed when there is an official method to help fund the project. "
So, I've been out of the CM game for a while, and I'm a little curious as to how the Lineage OS update revision continues on from CM. I have an HTC One m7 (GSM), and I have CM12.1 installed (Android 5.1.1). So, is it safe to assume that LOS 14 would have been CM14, or Android 7.xx? I'm just trying to get my bearings on the update nomenclature, because I seem to remember that CM13 (Android 6) was not very stable on HTC One m7 (GSM), so I'm nervous to try LOS14.
Thanks!

CM = LOS. No difference at all (expect the name). You can try it as it's really stable. Just remember to full wipe before flashing

Awesome! I'm gonna have to try this out sometime! Are there any problems with calls, like the bug where the microphone is really quiet, and you can't hear the other person? Also, how stable is it, and which is the most stable version, experimental or nightly?

Hey there .. I have flashed this rom yesterday, which one would be the supporting thread?
I have a problem with the alarm clock, I cannot set it up it crashes when I try to open it. Same deal with the gboard from openapps.
Any ideas how to solve it? The alarm is pretty damn important!

I had that problem too a while ago. Try to reflash your gapps or flash older version of gapps. If everything fails do a full wipe and flash rom and gapps.
BlueTooth problems
I've been running the 20170207 build for two days now and mostly it is working fine (even felt confident enough to encrypt the phone). Two (or three, depending on how you see it) annoying bugs are there though:
the "portrait" setting doesn't work, the phone remains in "auto orientation" mode
when bluetooth headphones are attached, phone calls won't work anymore (no audio is picked up or output by either the phone or the headphones)
even with BT turned off that problem persists until you remove all BT audio devices and reboot the phone
It'd be lovely to properly report these bugs. Unfortunately, the LineageOS people don't seem to be using GitHub issues?
Not really BT after all...
The real problem seems to be that any outgoing phone call has both microphone and speaker disabled. By hitting the "mute" button twice and the (enabled? why?) speakerphone button thrice, the phone call works then normally. Incoming calls are fine. If anybody from the Lineage OS team reads this, please help, it's a really annoying bug!
Also unfortunately the USB connection gets disconnected immediately after plugging in. In TWRP it works just fine, so it's not a hardware problem.

Has anyone got the GPS to work on a verizon vogue? I am running OMJs oem verizon rom with gps and rev a enabled. (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=25335) i have turned location on and still can not got a pretty blue dot in google maps. i have searched all over multiple forums and found nothing. for many people with sprint they run ppst.exe and all is well but i have read this can brick the phone for verizon users. so does anyone know how to get it to work?
You could try GPSToday and activate the GPS with that. That's what I use, works great!
GPS on Verizon Vogue
I use the gps with the same rom you are using and it works great. I generall use Livesearch for my gps app, and before I launch it I will always open GPSViewer and let it sit on my dash of my car for 5 minutes tops before I get on the road. Once GPSViewer locks onto a few sats, I am good to go.
Exact ROM I'm using and it works great!! I was suprised how well LiveSearch was with directions, it would automatically re-route if you went off course, it was sweet!!!
Anyhow, it took me about 3 days to finally get a lock on to the sats. Main reason was I tried from indoors, but I was near the window on a clear sky. Then sure enough, I walked outside, stood in my office parking lot and picked up 6 sats!!
If you haven't already try outside, and be patient!! I believe once you get the initial feed from the sats, you'll be good from then on out. There was a reg change that may help.
HKLM>Software>HTC>SUPL AGPS>GPS Mode
Try changing from 2 to either 1 or 4, some had better luck that way.
actually i figured it out a few days ago and will post what i found for others you need to change the messaging settings....

+1 on this fix! It used to take at least 5 minutes outside on a clear day to get a signal, at first, then about a min after that. With this fix, I got a lock in about 7 seconds inside my office! Not to mention, that sitting in my house, downtown, picks up in about 15 seconds! It worked so well, my GPS picked up that I moved from my dining room to my kitchen, all of 10 feet!

Until Verizon releases a GPS enable ROM update you cannot enable GPS on your stock Verizon Touch. But you can enable GPS by upgrading with a Sprint, Altell, or Bell ROM. Here is a tutorial that's a little dated but it's a good place to start.
Basically you have to upgrade the radio with a Sprint, Altell, or Bell ROM to get GPS. Then you have to flash a ROM that will work on your Verizon Touch. There are a bunch of them available. Of course, once you start there is no going back because there is no stock Verizon ROM available.
TY for your response and i have read the tutorial but again struck fear in my peanut sized brain. I called Verizon support and did get one of the rep's to admit that they are working on a new "GPS enabled Official ROM" and are expecting it to be released before the end of the year. Think I will wait till its out.

When a company like VZW gives you a release date, don't believe it! They were due to release the Blackberry Storm, the first touch screen blackberry, and for reasons I forget, decided to hold it for an extra three months!
I figured this much before I first flashed, there are tons of users changing their ROM, I've changed mine probably 15 times in the past two months. Not to mention, once you use the AGPS hack, you'll pickup a sat lock in seconds, even while inside. I couldn't wait any longer, VZW is far too slow and behind other carriers.
gps
I doubt vzw will give us our gps on our stock rom. they want to sell their gps subscription. they will only provide it on a future phone when everyone has it as a stock function. ie the massess
gps is not that important for me so i am sticking with stock rom for now. their are rom(s) with instructions for releasing your gps but you will have to unlock your phone. it sounds easy but from what i read you have to take care to follow instructions. read here and on ppcgeeks search for vx6900 gps and you will get what you need.

Me too. And I fix computers for a living! The available tutorials had me terrified that I was going to have to buy a new Touch at full price OR get arrested by the Verizon secret police.
The prudent thing to do is to wait for Verizon to release any ROM update even without GPS. Then you have a safe fallback if you wreck your phone with custom upgrades.
Personally though I couldn't wait, and I'm glad I didn't wait because now I'm really enjoying the full use of my Touch as it was designed... fast Internet, GPS maps, and better call quality.
Despite the terror-inspiring tutorials the only really dicey part of the process is upgrading the radio to another carrier (Sprint, Alltel, or Bell). Unlocking the phone (which is only done once) and flashing custom ROMS (which you'll probably do lots of times) is child's play. Focus on the process of upgrading the radio until you're comfortable with it and you'll be fine.
Ok so where do i start, unlock, flash, or upgrade radio...still not sure about this, i can't afford to be without a phone with my work. would still prefer someone in my area to show me in person and still willing to pay...

Try my rom. I have VZW and GPS works. I just released v3 and GPS works really fast without the AGPS fix . Im not sure if its the new build or what. Here's a link to my thread. CRiSTAL ROM v3
No GPS
I'm not sure what I have done wrong ... I have the 3.42 radio and installed the OMJ Rom (even tried the one from Crystal) but still no GPS. I had previously flashed the unofficial VZW ROM and with the GPS adapter found on another post the GPS worked beautifully.
I've tried standing outside to see if that is the problem but am still lost.
Any ideas?
Also ... I tried the aGPS VZW Fix but still nothing

Pm'd you the link from root junky with the ota. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post it here so I'll just keep the mess in pm.
No big reason to hate it much at all. Loving the pull-down menu! Too much white, though.

I updated with the rootjunky soak after checking its md5. Had the phone plugged in for the duration and let it update as I was going to bed. Woke up to a fully functional Lollipop, and haven't had any of the issues others are mentioning. Never rooted.
I didn't remember they stopped letting you change mobile data on/off automatically. I have horrible reception at work and like to turn off mobile data to save battery, and now I'll have to remember to manually change it. Luckily it's only four steps -_- (two-finger swipe down to get to quick settings, click on the cell icon, click the toggle on the top right, accept the confirmation dialog box). Three steps to turn it on - there's no confirmation.
Similar issue with location services: if you turn it off/on through the quick settings, it automatically changes it to High Accuracy instead of the previous setting (like Battery Saving). Luckily, Google changed the way locations are handled last year and this shouldn't be as big of an impact on battery as it had been previously.
The volume modes are going to be a headache to explain to my parents who also have Turbos. Glad I updated before they do...

We have to wait for Verizon or Moto release the full firmware and then you can patch it, I'm waiting for that too, for the firmware list
I absolutely love the new 5.1 Lolipop. Seems much smoother, faster, better overall appearance. Can't wait to really dig into this and see how the battery life is compared to stock 4.4.4
Overall: huge fan and love it!!
I've been very happy with 5.1 on the Turbo. Honestly, the Turbo seems to run 5.1 much better than my Nexus 9. I haven't had any major problems. I did, however, run into one odd issue that might just be a coincidence. I noticed after updating that I wasn't able to connect to my Verizon Network Extender, even though I still had Advanced Calling disabled (if Advanced Calling is on, and you have an LTE connection, you'll use that over a Network Extender). The Network Extender worked fine with other VZW devices. This went on for about a day, and then it magically started working again.
Forgive me if I over looked it, but I noticed now when I turn my phone volume down to silence it it just goes on vibrate rather than just silent with no vibrate. Did that feature disappear? I hate to be picky but I like to have it on silent while at work and I can't stand having it on vibrate.

Did an OTA update a few hours ago. Didn't bother with a factory reset and so far no issues that I am aware of. Silky smooth.

I took the OTA, did a factory reset, and set it up as a new phone; not restoring any backups. It's installing lots of app updates right now, so I haven't done much with it, but I haven't noticed any new bugs. Unfortunately, Lollipop hasn't fixed the wi-fi bug where my phone continually disconnects and reconnects to my wi-fi. It may just be a problem with certain routers (mine is a Belkin N750 DB), but I've got the latest available firmware on my router, too, and everything else works fine with it. I think it's time to see if I can get a warranty replacement.

I had that router for 7 or 8 years. towards the 6 year mark - it started dropping all my devices randomly so I bought a Cisco AC router and nothing has dropped off once unless I rebooted it or someone "accidently" unplugs it. In my case it was my router that was dropping my client devices off and this was before I bought my DT.

The update fixed the main problem I had with the phone. I play music from my phone to my car's system (Ford Sync) through bluetooth, and it used to not be able to start playback again after returning to my car without me having to manually toggle bluetooth off & on to reconnect it. Now it starts up right where it left off without me having to mess with it, like my old HTC phone did.
I haven't had much time to explore the update yet, but so far so good. I did OTA with no factory reset and everything seems fine.

I haven't tried re-locking my bootloader so I do not know whether a locked bootloader would yield higher external sound volume. My *guess* is it won't.
I have however tried both with unmodified kernel and modified (RootKernel 5.20 with DRM fix) kernel and in both cases I experience a significantly lower volume from both Spotify and YouTube compared to Marshmallow.
I have been running unmodified stock since launch for the first time on an android, and flashed AU .376 this weekend, with thoughts that if it did not fix this sluggish poor-batteried clump, I would switch to something else like Huaweii.
So far on day 2.5 I experience a much more smooth phone with prolonged battery life, albeit not as much as it had on MM. I've not experienced the sound bugs with low volume, although when I sitting down to switch the various notification sounds while wearing earplugs, it suddenly started playing from the phone speaker.
So far I am happy enough that I will keep the phone for now, with no plans of rooting or unlocking it as of now.
Is the AU .376 legit to donwload? I mean, would my warranty be void if i download it before the official release?

It might void the warranty, ref http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Android-development/using-flashtool-void-warranty/td-p/924234. Although for me in Norway this might fall in a gray zone as we have some good consumer protection laws in norway.
I might reflash it without any wipe when the proper release is out just in case I am to sell it at any point.
Been using the new build stock since yesterday and noticed better battery life. I'm using a US stock E5803 on 32.3.A.0.376 Malaysia and I've disabled a bunch of extra apps. Here are a few pros/cons that I've seen so far.
Pros: Better battery life, improved camera post processing (white/colour balancing, sharpening), improved camera speed with video recording/photos, Improved ram management, LTE does not drop anymore, phone heats up a tiny bit less than before, fingerprint scanner works with no issues, better stamina mode options, and phone sleeps like a baby with no noticeable battery drain.
Cons: Lower volume on 3rd party apps using phone speaker (spotify, etc) and no issues so far with Anker bluetooth speaker.
Untested: Bluetooth with car stereo, call quality.
Im using Nougat since last week and im downloading MM back again. Im not satisfied with nougat. In my opinion the performance is worse than on previous release.
I installed the previous release (.372) via OTA, so far it's good but battery is a bit less.
My question here is, if .376 will be pushed to my phone via OTA or I will have to flash it manually.
Currently I'm waiting for OTA update and checking daily, so fsr no luck :/

Way better than any Marshmallow firmware I ever used on my phone. ZERO PROBLEMS! No sound issues, no notification issues. I'm using .376 w/o root to test if battery life is longer than when using root. Anybody noticed differences in battery life between root and non-root?

How did you install it without root? Tried to do it with Xperia Flash and it give me a locked phone notification.
Also, is there a way to back up the current firmware before installing .376?
Thanks

Install the same way like with root. Use latest version of Flashtool to download and install new firmware.
I assume you have a locked bootloader which means no nandroid backup via TWRP, right?
You could try to backup via adb. Google for adb backup. You can also use a GUI called Holo for it if you not familiar with command prompts.
However from what i heard it's not as good as a nandroid backup and a few things can be missed in the backup.
But if you don't like nougat, you can also just flash back an old firmware via flashtool.
So, I woke up today to see OTA notification for .376 update.

It was only 85mb download, so I downloaded it via mobile data and installed it. I took screenshots of before and after update, take a look.
Currently running with no issues, and will post update for battery time and performance.

Just updated it to Nougat, no root, no unlocked bootloader. Everything is fine, volume is ok I guess (seems high both with music and with ringtones) very fluid. Camera is maybe a bit improved (quality is almost the same) but apart from the countdown before the selfie shooting, there is the possibility to set the Iso up to 3200 when using 20/23 mpx in manual mode (don't remember if it was in MM too); seems a little faster when taking the picture. Still no control over shutter speed in the stock camera, STILL limited to 1/10 in the manual camera app (damn), S T I L L no capability to shoot Raw. Overheating is still there, but not much a problem (at least in winter )
Good update, not really different after all but little improvements are there (damn Sony is too lazy on the camera though)

Good morning
Did everything you suggested without any trouble - used Android Studio for the back up and then download Xperia flashtool (Emma).
Unfortunately when reaching the point that i had to flash my mob with the new system, 'Emma' cannot proceed due to my phone been locked. Knew that it was too easy to finish everything fast and successfully Guess i ll have to wait
Anyone here with a nougat update in UK?

Nearly pal, i don't know if it should work with latest version of emma to. Never used before. Usually if flashtool is mentioned here, we mean another tool. Try it with this one(latest version):
http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php
I updated to the Vodafone UK firmware through Flashtool (I live in Norway) and I noticed they've fixed the white noise issues with sound through mini jack, which is amazing
However, it seems that my unlocked bootloader is causing some issues with the fingerprint scanner, Youtube, mobile connections etc. Think I'm gonna root, as the thermal engine still seems to be kind of meh :/. Also, no stutters so far, even when using Chrome and Word at the same time plus Messenger bubbles
It's been about 27 hours since the update and I'm loving it. No volume issues at all and battery life seems at least comparable to MM (my use was abnormal for the past day, so I'll report back if I notice drastically different battery life over time). Only thing I did after updating was cleared the cache. One small warning, though: my update took a LONG time... nearly an hour. I didn't expect that, and it had me worried that something went wrong, but it was fine.

Tried again last night, installing eveything right from the beginning. this time is seemed to be much easier and faster and at last updated to Nougat successfully! Only thing noticed until now is the smoother fingerprint sensor and i really enjoy the clear all and window switch commands.
Thanks for all the help, have a nice day

I downloaded this today but I have yet to install it.
This could totally be placebo, but it seems like my standby battery life has improved with the update.
Does Bluetooth finally work ?

You're lucky I guess lol... I frequently have issues with the BT not connecting to car stereo for both call/media audio
Frequently popping/skipping when playing music via bt, like many others have reported the only fix is to connect, wait for the popping/skipping, turn off bt on phone while playing audio then turn it back on, but even then it still does it occasionally
Audio/video sync off greatly when using bt also
I doubt this will ever be fixed with firmware updates as this has always been a problem with LG phones, I had the same issue with LG G2X and LG G4, I wish they would figure it out, I like their phones but its the one thing that drives me back to sammy for a few generations before trying LG again
Anyone else having issues with the SD card constantly unmounting after the update? I've tried multiple cards and all of them do the same after about 10 minutes.

I haven't had that issue. I have a 64gb SanDisk, and it hasn't had any problems.
13 hours since unplugged, 2 hours of sot, 66% battery left. Great update IMO.

Yep, same here.
I downloaded lg bridge from the LG G6 thread and h update showed right away, updated in about an hour because I have an old slow netbook.

Not trying to be a smartass but did you format the card I know it gives an annoying notification that won't go away until it's reformatted I think. I just updated tonight and more than likely lost everything I'd pushed to it

Q n A
Official weeklies are out! Get them from the "Get CarbonROM" link in the OP.
BUGS:
-> You tell me.
CHANGELOGS:
You can visit https://carbonrom.org/changelog to view the changelog.
FAQs (Please read before posting questions):
Q: Does the ROM support OMS and theming with Substratum?
A: Yes it does! Simply enable "Allow untrusted overlays" from Settings -> CarbonFibers -> Privacy and Security and follow the instructions that follow.
Q: Is the camera good?
A: The ROM uses the device tree from Lineage OS. Expect similar quality. Feel free to install the Google Camera port for the best pictures from your camera. You do not have to install the front cam HDR fix Magisk module with Carbon.
Q: Do I need to make a factory reset before installing this ROM?
A: If you're moving from cr-5.1 official builds to cr-6.1 builds, then a factory reset is recommended. Some have been able to dirty flash their way from cr-5.1 to cr-6.1, but before trying that, make sure you have a backup, in case you're caught in a bootloop. Clean install is ALWAYS recommended. If you face any issues after dirty flashing, clean flash first and see if it's persistent and only then report the bug.
Q: Does the ROM work on both the Mi3 and Mi4?
A: Yes it does.
Q: Is the ROM rooted by default?
A: No, please flash your favorite root solution after installing the ROM.
Q: Does the camera work?
A: It does.
Q: Do I need to make a factory reset before installing this ROM?
A: If you're installing it for the first time, YES, a full factory reset is required. If you're moving from an unofficial build to official weeklies, A FULL WIPE IS REQUIRED. Otherwise, dirty flash would work fine. If you have any issues with Google apps crashing, flash your gapps again.
Q: SafetyNet?
A: Sure, if you use Magisk and enable Magisk hide.

It's the same.
Installed and it's working great. Very smooth.
Thank you dev.
wooowww..my fav room is out..thanks so much dev
found a bug
thank you so much dev...
this rom is so smooth
while setting up password,PIN(didn't tried pattern )complete screen freezes... and after a force reboot after input of pin /password it freezes again
After a few hours using it I have found these issues on my Mi4 Lte.
- When talking to someone the other person ears an echo. Issue with the mic maybe...
- If the other person disconnects/ends the call on my device the call keeps going. (doesn't detect that the other person ended the call).
- No button leds (not even charging).
Everything else is great. It's fast, smooth, no crashes so far.
One more thing I miss (not a bug) is the wake on device with the volume keys but again that is not a bug but a feature that will probably be added in the future.
Once again a big thanks to the dev.

Review after using this rom 1 day
Ok i flashed this rom yesterday and today i used it and here's some review:
1. Battery isn't bad but it could be better, i got 3 hours 25 min SOT from 95% to 35%.
2. Performance is good, better than MIUI 8.3.1(latest developer rom)
3. Audio Quality is bad of course because of the lineage source you use, but when i tried to install viper4arise or something similiar, the viper itself crashed. it also happened on RR Oreo and Nitrogen Oreo..
EDIT: I installed viper via magisk and it worked!!! thank god... for proof see below screenshot
4. The fast charging didn't work for me(maybe because of my charger brick maybe from the rom itself) FYI i used the original charger brick and the original cable too but i only got 1000mAh++ never reached 2000mAh(fast charging)(see the screenshot below)
5. Offline charging working perfectly
6. Setting up pin/password is good (dunno why ppl faced freezing issue)
7. Camera is decently good, i used MIUI cam.
8. Deepsleep is working (see screenshot below)
Now it is time for the bug and some missing feature :
1. When i was in call, the other person hears an echo of my sound. Thanks to @necrotalis for finding this bug
2. Button light not working and missing option for that
3. IT'S HARD to answer the call (swipe up to answer), i have to swipe 3 times or more to answer the call ( change the DPI to small fixed the issue)
4. Please add LED option in the rom
5. LED while charging isn't working
6. If the other person disconnects/ends the call on my device the call keeps going. (doesn't detect that the other person ended the call). Thanks to @necrotalis for finding this bug
7. false charging information on the lockscreen (always show charging rapidly) ( see the screenshot below)
8. phone is heating very fast even i used it for a basic task
9. Whatsapp video call broken(dont work)
so this is my review, sorry if i didn't find much bug because this rom is almost perfect peace out
