Hello OPX community,
I started to work on the port and its progressing nicely, UI is up also Wifi works now, but many things still don't work, so help is defintly appreciated.
Current status: wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Adaptations/libhybris
OLD:
I don't know if some of you know Sailfish OS, but its an OS that is not based on Android with an outstanding UI and UX.
And developers can port it to Android based devices like ours \o/
So I took the hand and compiled Sailfish OS and Android, but unfortunaly I don't really have the time to test since this is my only phone.
So I need someone to either test and report to me or what would be better someone that can develope further on its own after I shared my knowledge with him.
This thread is for talking about everything related to Sailfish OS.
Here are some useful links:

This would be my dream coming true...
I might be able to test it, if You can make a flashable zip. Is this build supposed to support android runtime? If I flash it, my recovery and internal SD remains untouched?

Android Support is currently not available for ported devices but there are some devs working on an open source solution.
Your recovery will stay the same.
Internal SD should stay untouched of you don't wipe it but it will probably not visible from sailfish but there was a fix for that, dunno if that is already upstream.

UI is booting up on the OnePlus X!!
Still having Jolla with me and running Sailfish OS on OpX hw would make it sweet.

I haven't heard about this OS, is this some custom ROM, CM based? or what? :silly:

It's a completely different OS, it's based off Mer which is kind of a Linux distribution and on top of that sits sailfish OS. CM is only used on Android via libhybris to get the hardware working. In fact it's completely different from Android and NOT based on it like CM. It's real Linux as a mobile OS.
Wifi up
Bluetooth up
All sensors up
Audio up
\o/
Nice progression, thanks for effort. Had a Jolla-device before and loved it. The HW build quality just wasnt there. Altough, I'd love to get the opensource dalvik-emu to work some day, since I have a bad feeling about future sw development on SailfishOS.
Awesome. Sorry I haven't been able to get back to you on the latest build. I haven't had time lately. Life kinda showed up abf took my time with it. I'll try to observe it later.

Sim is now detected and mobile data is working after adding your apn to settings \o/ video and music playback should also work now and RTC alarms are working so you never need to worry if your phone is off you won't miss that alarm

I could post it in a few hours, but than you don't have a camera, no LED and probably no calls (needs to be confirmed)
It would really be only a test build.
If I should do it, write it now
EDIT: Ah also Jolla Store is not working atm needs to be resolved server side. But there is still openrepos.
So , Android nougat is finally here , but unfornately only for nexus for now. I dont know about you guys , but i cant wait for it , so Will anyone port it Today ? Or its already porting ? If Yes , update me about the situation, If not guide me to an tutorial of porting, i dont know many things about porting , but i am willing to try If is there no true devs available, and please guide me to a working tutorial. Thanks !

This is not true at all. You can take the AOSP source, the Moto kernel source, all the binaries you need and then spend some days to get this running.

Not saying it's time well spent or that I want to do it, just saying it's possible. Resources are available here on xda and elsewhere like http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-university-how-to-port-aosp-roms-from-source/ or you can do it exactly as if you were porting cm, https://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/15492-general-cyanogenmod-porting-discussion/ or https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro .
As there already is a cm port for Marshmallow, you could try to see what they did and reapply those changes to aosp.
However probably some stuff changed so finding an Android 7 rom for a phone with very similar hardware and replacing the kernel might be a better idea. All in all as I said it's days of work or even weeks. It's just not true that it can't be done.
Already running Nougat on my nexus 6 and I gotta say there's not much that changed.
Like all the other major updates from GB, ICS,JB, KK ,LP & MM , its over rated.
By tomorrow people will be complaining about N ,like always.
I really hate when major updates happen cause it seems like people are running around like chickens without heads asking when will we receive N. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EE21MBRWQxvR9xM-iVSBrGs_Pljd4YgYsw/view?usp=docslist_api

You are forgetting proprietary drivers. Until there aren't drivers compiled for 7.0 you can't build neither a working rom. Be patient and wait for Motorola to release a working rom, at least a soak one. If you can't, buy a Nexus device.
Do you think we will have a lineageos build for huawei nova?
That would be great, but first we need a rom base for any rom....
After my exams in february I would like to try porting Lineage OS to our huawei nova...but thats not a promise, it's an "Let's try and hope.."
Too bad there was not activity on this phone yet.
I really really hoped this gonna replace my Nexus 5 ( the >5 inch / 70cm width trend sucks - phones are just too big!) - but nooope..
I had it already in the hands, good that I didn't bought it. But I maybe would if someone would work on it :laugh:
Once huawei releases kernel source I will start working on it.

Did they release those for previous phones too?
I figured since this is a snapdragon device the chance for roms will be much higher. Since they don't really release anything for their own chipsets iirc.

I think they released the kernel for many phones in the past..but you can also extract it from the stock firmware..so that shouldn't be a problem to build lineage for this device, but it takes time.. ?

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. Thanks
I hope you don't want to run Xposed because it won't work on any 7.X ROM.
And Substratum won't work 100% on Lineage due to LOS likely using CMTE when they introduce theming soon.
Get yourself a proper working 6.X AOSP ROM and be much happier.
I wish devs would stop working on 7.X and fix their 6.X stuff.
7.X sucks IMO.

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" but thanks for your advice but I will sit here and wait til someone builds it.
Look in the Verizon section. They have LOS for T-Mobile.

This poor device has been stuck on touchwiz 4.4.4 for a very long time, it would be great if somebody tried to port a good rom to it.
Please reply with updates, if there's any.

Presently sitting on an old build ROM
Pixelized-OS-v2.9-20180816-SM-T230NU-FIX
That has worked relatively well even on this device with limited storage, processor, and memory. Either way, I'd love to help my unit has been rooted for 3 or so years and please let all of us know if we can help.
Please also note, I use this device only as a backup, so starting over and trying something fresh can happen quickly.

Android 10 should work with some optimization- porting the kernel to a relatively new version would likely be the hardest part.

I just found all device tree specific blobs and all that. Can start from there at least. Then once we get it booted and working then we can go for Android 8-10

How complicated is it to slim down the builds as much as possible?
I don't see needing all the extra TouchWiz crap that this device barely supports and had survived using Link2SD for storage. Something stable supporting at least basic apps is all I need, and most of those (Gmail, Chrome, etc) are now available from play store.
Thanks for trying and let me know if o can help! Sorli...

Hi, my advice is starting by taking sources from other variants (you can find them in GitHub S3NEO organization) and editing sources by starting from that base. For the kernel, it shouldn't be difficult to make a defconfig by always looking in matisse and millet ones. I advice you to start from Android 9 (lineage-16.0 branches) since they are the most stable. If you are really interested to work, you can write me in Telegram (same username as xda profile) and I can write you something more about what you should do.
Android 8, 9 or 10 will be nice, but right now I will be happy with Android 5. Are there any ROMs for degas higher than 4.4.4?
Are there any true Android 5 or Android 7 ROMs for this device?

We can't because degas has different SoC and nobody of the devs have this device. So, we can't do anything.

Yeah that Marvell CPU and Vivante GPU is a real headache I guess. Why Samsung put them in it lol Maybe one day (when NewPipe stops fully working on my Tab 4) I'll grab a new Tab (probably S series this time).
