Kernel 4.4 for Snapdragon 650 - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Guides, News, & Discussion

It seems that in their latest kernel release, Sony has ported kernel 4.4 for all of their devices, including Xperia X which has the same SoC as Redmi Note 3 does, Snapdragon 650. Is anyone trying to port it over? Does anyone think it is feasible to do so? I have been trying to but I don't have much experience so I haven't got it to boot yet. It would be really awesome not to be stuck at an ancient kernel version...

Sony didn't share their sources yet.
Plus alot of stuff doesn't work on Xperia x with the new kernel

Huawei P8lite (ALE-L21) Kernel Sources???

Hi there, is there any chance we could see kernel sources for the Huawei P8lite ALE-L21 (International Kirin 620 variant) soon? I'm thinking of buying this phone and hoping to develop some custom roms (Like Cyanogenmod) for the P8lite and Im aware that the kernel sources are out for the ALE-L04 (US Snapdragon 615 variant). Its the lack of kernel sources that are putting me off buying this phone
Honor 4c source
I searched the whole internet but didn't find sourcecode or roms
i only found the sourcecode of honor 4c ( CHM-U01 ) it has almost the same specs .. the same chipset only diffrences in battery and in internal storage
if you can use it to build roms you can find it on huawei's site (EMUI download page)

Thanks but I would be very reluctant to use another phone's kernel sources for this phone because of the difference in sensors and partitions and the fact that the Honour 4C is still on 4.4.2 KitKat

Its great to see TWRP for this device but without the kernel source, it will be nearly impossible to build CM from source unless you have amazingly good development skills, which I dont have.
Kernel sources are out!

Sorry, got a Moto G (2015) in the end so unfortunately I can't build it for you

			
				
Nothing really to be sad about. Those chips never get kernel source.
So no custom roms for our little huawei p8 lite?

Hey bro,
Just wanted to check with you, xiaomi recently released the kernel sources for the redmi 3, the hardware is very similar to our xiaomi mi4i just that they are using the snapdragon 616. I'm wondering if it would be possible for you to port your kernel for the redmi 3? I'm sure lots of redmi 3 owners will be really happy and I'll definitely ask them to try to donate where possible, myself included of course.
regards,
davtse

The kernel dev for the mi4i is willing to look into porting his kernel for the redmi 3. Take note, he does not have a redmi 3(or a mi4i anymore, he uses mi 5) so where possible, this community will need to support him with logs, information(sources) etc.
His kernel ( @haikalizz) was probably one of the few developments for the mi4i that made it useable for me in the long run.
Of course, I'd encourage you guys to donate as well(take note the nature of a donation is to support development and not to buy the services of a developer)

Lenovo C2 rom port?

can someone port c2 stock marshmallow rom for our a6000?
they had similar specs only difference is that our is snapdragon and their mediatek, and yes maybe because of this that is not possible but am just asking, maybe there is another lenovo phone with snapdragon 410, witch has newer android version...
no, need stock rom from same device, witch have 8916 cpu and same cam.
ok, so there are 130 models with snapdragon 410 or 8916 as you call it cpu, and can someone port some stock rom from them, cause i can't find any other lenovo device with this cpu that runs higher android then 4.4 kitkat...
i would be nice there are some samsung models j3,j5, or maybe motrola moto g4 play or moto g3, or maybe huawei honor 4x, dunno but there are many phones and i would like to test it with many roms, i am writing this just to give u some idea..
use MIUI8 on android 5.1.1
or stock 5.0.2.
marshmallow is sux for our device. profit.
Maybe someone try port rom from Lenovo Phab ? Lenovo phab is with SD 410..
if you want android 6 - need to do port ROM Nexus Experience from Xiaomi Redmi 2.
I want to port VIBE UI, if someone can port, pls port VIBE UI from Lenovo Phab.

Redmi 4a Rom

So I had searched for devices with the Snapdragon 425, I I had found the Redmi 4a on the list. Now, I went on the forum for the device and found lots of Oreo roms... I was wondering if because they have the same chipset, could their roms be ported to our phone (Qualcomm) to bring us Oreo??

Nope; be nice if ROM adaptation was that simple.

Nope. In the e4 telgram group a few ppl even went to the redmi group and asked if they could help. No dice.
