With all due respect, we already have a LOS. It's not about who released first or Firelord released one so I should also release. It's better if the time spent is on fixing what's not fixed. Rest can be done later and pushed back subsequently.

Please take it positively.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nandakis4:
i was a Moto G 2015 user, i rooted my phone when my device was still under warranty, and since then i knew the name FIRELORD , i was proud that we have indian devs .. later found some CM based roms by another dev -isbhubamsingh ..

i was happy in those days, as Alberto and you guys had done so much work .. and made everything simpler :victory:

i was aware of Firelords and ishubham's work.. and their contribution to MotoG2015

when i saw You guys here (Firelord, shubham) i thought,as you both gave an intro in to this p2 forums.. i was pretty much sure about Good future of Lenovo P2, only thinking that Alberto from MotoG2015 replaced by MIKE here :)

there are people like me, who are silently,eagerly waiting for builds by you developers.. :mad:

and there are people,who are waiting but asking annoying questions :(

what everyone hopes is not only a Good Development , but also Healthy relation among such groups.. and after reading several posts, i just want you all Good guys Do Good :( and Be Good :highfive:
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Billytromp:
I second all of this. There are many like us who silently await and praise the dev's work.

To [MENTION=6257538]FireLord [/MENTION] [MENTION=4317361]mikeioannina [/MENTION] and [MENTION=7681940]Subham[/MENTION], lot's of praise and gratitude for your work. I hope that these forums and its contents don't impact your motivation and pleasure in a negative way too much.

Gr. A happy P2 user

Don't expect ROM-e to be built in such a time.. Cause if people over look that too much... It's purely obsessive cumpulsive... just saying.. :svetius: I go to school since the beginning of fall and don't really have time to look over here unless answering questions on AICP. Until such a time when this thread will come to it's conclusion, i'll be back. Otherwise, goodluck with work [MENTION=3839575]mikeioannina[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6257538]FireLord[/MENTION] with school, that should always be first. :svetius:

Ever saw who maintains AEX for Lenovo P2?
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nabeelp2:
I know that he develops rom. BUT WHAT I MEAN IS ITS DAMN DIFFICULT TO DEVELOP A ROM FROM SCRATCH Than developing a rom on a established device tree.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] widewozzy:
Guys just ignore these stupid peoples. Don't argue with them. It worths nothing. None of us want this thread to be closed. Just ignore them.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Siva Mk:
Dude, understand the point he made. Don't come to conclusions right away.

Both devs are doing the same work with one of them being a little further than the other and still doesn't get the respect he deserves. Also, it has been pointed out that Mike is doing exactly what has been done by Firelord.

We all want them to work together so that they could fix the bugs first and then do the rest.

You just acted like an impatient bull without even thinking or knowing about the work that has been done. If you understand the work of a developer so much then show that respect to Firelord. He actually built the devices from scratch.

P.S Mike, I mean no offence to you or your work. It'd be pretty efficient if you and Firelord work on fixing the bugs now. Cuz even if you release a new ROM (LOS obviously) it'll still have the same bugs which means all the time spent on it will be practically useless as it'll just be a copy of the current los.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] medwatt:
While I don't think we should rally behind anyone, I think Firelord deserves a lot of praise, and he should be the one we put our hopes on. He came out of nowhere and gave us a ROM which solved a fundamental issue that was affecting all ROMs. No one was expecting it. He just gave us a beautiful surprise. I see lots of members here grovelling and fawning over mike, quick to caution others not to hurt his feelings, as if mike is some divine savior or something. While he owes no one here anything, he's been at it for far too long. If the times comes and he finally releases something, fine, if he doesn't, I won't be losing any sleep over it. I don't understand this obsession with custom ROMs. I'm still using the stock ROM with systemless root and I don't see what else I need.

Quick question wzedlare, how difficult would it be to add "Ambient Display" to the Nougat P2 or Home Button customization (long tap and double-tap especially ?)
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] wzedlare:
Ambient display is already present in many roms.About home button, it needs kernel source edits.I can't do that bcz I don't have the device anymore.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] widewozzy:
Seems like the Development is getting back on track :)
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Shazadz:
Cant wait
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] webvan:
Sorry, hadn't seen your reply. So Ambient Display has to he "cooked" in the ROM? Can't just be added even on a rooted device ?
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] kjub:
Guys expecialy pros from XDA ... long runners ... how do you see the future of developement ? Please ... the long battery is amazing in long run guarantee that even in 3y :D it will last 5SOT with easy.... But lets face the Custom Roms ... or if some developement will start in the future ... its 1year so lot of folks also with N update that its still working and thicking but after 2017 there will be a serious question if something will ever happen :/

I am so so sad ... am fed up with flagship that after 2y dies in 3 SOT :( ... so no serious work on mobile is not possible ....

How do you see the future software ? I have seen some guys that have tuned old hardware and got flagship like nowdays performance from it .... Just because in 2y the software does not go so much resources hungry that it neas 10cores :D .... but in software its "tuned" so you need basicaly a new phone ... its only my feeling what about you ?

My biggest problem is that my 2y LG flex2 had Snapdragon 820 ... and now I am going to buy 625 :/ ???? help or mi5 that has 820 :/

And am still considering G5+ for camera because I love photos and I love long lasting battery :D any help ?
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
to contribute to the discussion.

i wouldn't pick a random dev from this forum and simply donate a device and hoping to ensure the future development and longevity of the P2.

i highly recommend someone that actually contributes to CM(LOS) for years and maintains a couple of devices based on the SD615 (the 625 isn't much of a difference).

such as https://github.com/mikeNG he is imho one amazing dev! i can vouche for his work, you won't find anyone better for the P2.

i'm pretty sure if he would get donated an P2 with Band 20 support (because he is from greece). he will be pushing the device to official support once he gets his hands on the device.

the device is around 250€ in europe by now. it shouldn't take too long to collect the donation.

if you decide to pick him. let me know and i will contact him.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] DS-1:

[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] MrColdbird:
I merely offered my services at the very minimal "charge" I can offer it at, namely someone providing me the device to work on it.

While having the device myself I can't sacrifice it for development purposes as I need it to be stable and permanently reachable for my regular job.

Take it or leave it, and if someone else decides to pick it up that's fine with me as well. I suggest you get in touch with him first though to see if he is actually willing to take on another device. If he is, consider me to be the first guy to throw ten bucks into the pot.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Valberu:
Moreover, many people (including me) take a look at CM/LOS supported devices before buying a phone. The P2 was an exception because of the wonderful specs, design etc. If the device goes official, i'm pretty sure the community will quickly grow :fingers-crossed:
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] tapunger:
yep!
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
My post wasn't directed at you.

It was meant "in general".

I contacted him. He said:

If a device gets donated to him, it even enters the LineageOS pool. Meaning if other LineageOS dev's that contribute to the project are interested in the device and for some reason in the future he needs a break the device will be send to another LineageOS dev for the time being to keep it maintained.

This exchange of devices keeps a device maintained for a long period of time.

---------- Post added at 08:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:39 AM ----------

If you guys want. I can open up a donation thread and the pool for the devices donation.

I can vouch for him and I think most of you should know me by nickname if you ever installed the official TWRP and know that I can be trusted.

For those that don't know me.

I'm the one that made TWRP possible/available in the first week of the P2's hitting the market.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] swatchfb:
Oh my god, sounds like christmas to me!

Where can I instantly donate and (sorry for that possibly stupid question) what happens to the money if we don't reach the goal?

edit: Thus I vote for a donation thread.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:

[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nozav:
I would be happy to donate something too if it means an official lineageos distribution.

[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nihil39:
What now? The donation thread has been closed. Can NikeNG let us now anything?
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] swatchfb:
Please don't let this die if there's any way to continue it -.-

edit: I think we all could continue to support [MENTION=2494638]celoxocis[/MENTION] over the official "Donate to Me"-button for his great work on TWRP and especially for his ongoing efforts on international relations under developers. If time has come, he could also inform us by the way about what's going on in MikeNG's life.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] celoxocis:
Don't worry. I just saw for whatever reason they closed it. I'm in the process of clearing up and re-opening the thread.

---------- Post added at 10:10 ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 ----------

I'm waiting for a reply by the moderator that closed it.

Mike can't contact him as he serves his military duty during weekdays.

He is only available on weekends currently.

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 AM ----------

Update:

I have sent him all the proof that it is legitimate donation thread.

He will re-open the thread once Mike sends him a PM to confirm that it is okay.

So we have to wait till the weekend now.

Imho. He closed it for the wrong reason.

I can link to countless other threads that have not been started by the dev but by a mediator such as myself.

Those threads are still open till today. None of them have been closed.

This whole closing/re-opening just causes an useless delay and dis-encouragement to the donators.

But as i have promised. Should the goal not be reached.

I will reject the donations and everyone will receive the amount they donated in the form they donated.

Due to above delay an information to all. I will be leaving on June the 15th on a vacation.

I will follow the progress and update as good as i can. But it won't be as frequent as when i'm home/at work.
[Lenovo P2 Guides, News, & Discussion] mikeioannina:

Can we all just please concentrate on what we need to be doing which is supporting the devs and helping them without deviating from what is at hand.

It is my humble request that you guys take your squabble somewhere else and not bring anything up about it after THIS POST WHATEVER THE REASON .

Bringing in a moderator and getting the thread cleaned is one way of doing it, but it just gives a negative vibe and renders the purpose of a forum useless.

For my point of view if certain people has criticism towards the devs. Then do it yourself if you think how it should be done.

Come on everybody, where are grown ups let's treat each other that way.

I would spend my free time to support the development for a stable ROM but I don't have the programming knowledge.
