If you want to help me improve the DEVICES_AND_THEIR_KERNELS table:

  • What information about your device do we need?
    • MANUFACTURER,
    • DEVICE_NAME,
    • DEVICE_CODENAME,
    • MODEL_NUMBER,
    • SYSTEM_ON_CHIP_CODENAME = SOC,
    • LINEAGEOS_LINUX_KERNEL_SRC = LOSK_SRC,
    • LINEAGEOS_LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION = LOSK_VERS,
    • MANUFACTURER_LINUX_KERNEL_SRC = MNFK_SRC,
    • MANUFACTURER_LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION = MNFK_VERS,
  • Where / how to find ?
    • with Google search
    • on your device: settings > About Phone
      => "Device model" tells you the DEVICE_NAME
      => the last few characters at "Android version" should tell you the DEVICE_CODENAME
      => the first few characters at "Baseband version" should tell you the SOC
      => the first numbers at "Kernel version" tell you the MANUFACTURER_KERNEL_VERSION = MNFK_VERS
    • on the LineageOS website:
    • If you know the DEVICE_NAME: on the Download website
      => you can get the DEVICE_CODENAME
    • If you know the DEVICE_CODENAME: on the CVE tracker
      => you can get the MANUFACTURER + SOC + LOSK_SRC + LOSK_VERS + LINEAGEOS_DEVICE_REPO_URL => MODEL_NUMBER
    • If you know the DEVICE_CODENAME: in the Wiki - add the device codename at the end of the URL!
      => you can get the DEVICE_NAME + MODEL_NUMBER
    • in Wikipedia: if you know the DEVICE_NAME,
      => you can get the MODEL_NUMBER
    • on the Manufacturer website: If you know the MODEL_NUMBER, MANUFACTURER and / or the DEVICE_CODENAME,
      => you can download the kernel source code for the specific device! The kernel src code includes the MANUFACTURER_LINUX_KERNEL_VERSION = MNFK_VERS in its top-level Makefile. To get the MANUFACTURER_KERNEL_SRC , note the URL from which the download started!
