Port to slte - SM-G850F

[Gijom]

I am trying to make / install a custom ROM for the slte device. I have so far found the following repository: https://github.com/DrKita/android_device_sltexx

However the associated ROM is far from perfect (Lineage 14.1) particularly with sound problem during calls.

I was wondering if there is a plan to port this sltecan ROM to slte. If not, is it a very difficult job ?

From my understanding the most difficult part is to change the kernel to be compatible with exynos5430. Would it be possible to rely on the following for that ?

<remote  name="cryptomilk" fetch="git://git.cryptomilk.org/" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_samsung_slsi-cm_exynos" path="hardware/samsung_slsi-cm/exynos" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_samsung_slsi-cm_exynos5" path="hardware/samsung_slsi-cm/exynos5" />
<project name="CyanogenMod/android_hardware_samsung_slsi-cm_openmax" path="hardware/samsung_slsi-cm/openmax" />
<project name="projects/android/android_hardware_samsung_slsi_exynos5430" path="hardware/samsung_slsi/exynos5430" remote="cryptomilk" />
<project name="projects/android/android_kernel_samsung_slte.git" path="kernel/samsung/slte" remote="cryptomilk" />

And I forgot to link you version of course: https://github.com/kyasu/android_device_samsung_slte

But the commit history seems a bit older with a version for cm 12.1 only. The previous link as an attemps at have lineage 14.1.

So my question is basically: how to start to have a Lineage 16 slte plaform ?

• Should I start from sltecan and try to include the exanos kernel ?
• Should I start from slte and try to move toward lineage 16 ?
• If I should start from slte than which version would you advise, your or the cryptomilk one ?
