Does anyone have a build guide for building Lineage on the Galaxy J5 3016? I am aiming to learn more about the build process w8th the goal of eventually building Android Oreo for it, but need somewhere to start off. I have the latest Nougat source from Samsung what else would I need?

Hi everybody,
I am new to this forum, so I introduce myself a bit:
I am the owner of a Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) J500F, bought in India.
running Android 6.0.1 from last official update.
I am a long time linux developer, (more than 20 years), but I have not a lot of experience on android dev,
I have already compiled some kernels for my old wiko phone, and test them successfully...
On my Galaxy J5, I already installed TWRP for 6.0.1, and supersu via TWRP to root it..
my Goal , is to port some of Nethunter kernel patches,
mainly android usb hid keyboard patch ( github.com/pelya/android-keyboard-gadget )
and wifi injection patches also.. this is the basic need for a Nehunter port.. with some kernel .config mods also..
There is already a Galaxy A5 port in Nethunter Github, and it should not be too hard to port nethunter to Galaxy J5 I Think..
Sorry for this lengthy introduction,
So my question is....
From which source code do I have to start to compile a stock kernel for android 6.0.1 for Galaxy J5 (J500F) ?
I found the Nick Verse Repository: github.com/DJSteve/kernel_j500fn_djsteve
thereis also: github.com/Galaxy-J5/samsung_j5_kernel-mm.git (kernel for CyanogenMod 13.0 I think)
ans also: github.com/Galaxy-J5/kernel_samsung_j5lte (kernel for CyanogenMod 12.1 I think)
and other ones laying around.. (MSM8916 samsung released ?? )
so from which kernel source code do I have to start, to build an android 6.0.1 stock kernel for a J500F ????
I want to start from an unmodified kernel, then add each patch one by one, test them, to validate each steps...
I hope some one will have some time to help me
Can anyone provide me nougat device tree for land and the nougat kernel as well? Please help! I am porting viper os 3.0 to land!
Hi, I was wondering since we won't be getting any direct update of Android Q and later from samsung. Is that "thing" there in the BETA of android PIE of our galaxy s8's which is needed to develop Lineage OS's? *Just wanting to know is there any future relating our Galaxy s8 and Lineage OS*
-TIA
I have a Samsung Galaxy A7 2015 (A700FD). The phone is currently in Android 6.0 and there are no more upgrades for it. I wanted to upgrade to Android Oreo or Pie, so I did some research How to Build a Custom Rom, and everything worked out except the device tree compatible. I found a GitHub thread for A700FD but the device kernel is for CM12/Andoid Marshmallow. I need a guide on how to upgrade the device kernel to oreo or pie. I would like to continue developing for A700FD device. Anyone know how to upgrade a device tree. Doesn't matter the device you are using, I just need the procedures. Thanks!
Hello. As the post suggests, I'm trying to look for the source code for the Onn 100005206, or to see if anyone has gotten LineageOS working on it.
To the best of my knowledge, Digiland, the Walmart/Onn affiliate that manufactures these tablets, has yet to release any kernel source. However, kernel source isn't required for a LineageOS port ROM. Since most of these tablets are Project Treble supported, there are probably existing GSI custom builds that will boot up and run on the Surf 7 (100005206). I am now finishing a custom ROM on a Lenovo Tab3, and the 100005206 will be my next project for a custom ROM once I finish up. I can post my progress here to keep any interested members informed.
