He said that he only built it with updated security patch and the security patch has been updated by LOS team (or maybe by people which submits to gerrit, I don't know) so there's nothing to push to github. Here is the commit where the security patch was updated to March, but that's only the commit which changes the "string" or "property" which you see in Settings > About. There's the CVEs which actually fix the security issues and must be applied (which can also be seen on LOS's github).

I'd say that there's two cases when you'd want to update the security patch on your own:

1) ROM's team has stopped updating the security patch. LOS14 will stop getting newer security patch sooner or later.

2) You want the new security patch as soon as it's out. Usually, it takes some time till a new security patch is merged into the ROM's sources.

Here you can see the security patches. And here's a tutorial about how to manually update your custom rom source code with security updates by [MENTION=7026648]AlaskaLinuxUser[/MENTION] which can be quite helpful and I'll recommend you to read.

So, to update the security patch on your own:

1) Fork the repos from LineageOS's github to your github.

2) Click on the security patch on Android's website.

3) There you can check out the CVE's and see the severity, which android version is being affected by the CVE etc. You'll want to click on the hyperlink below "References" and that will redirect you to the commit which fix the respective CVE and you can see the changes in the commit.

4) Fix the CVEs by merging the changes you see in the commits. I think I've never tried, but you should be able to add Google's/AOSP's git as git remote and cherry pick the commits. It's possible that you'll run into conflicts, so you'll have to figure out yourself how to solve them.

5) Once you're done, make a new build and test if everything is fine.

NOTE: You'll have to track the repos from your github, so you'll have the sources with updated security patch on your PC and you can use them to make a new build. I don't know if there's a simpler way, but below I'll list the ways I know:

1) Simply clone the repos from your github into a new folder and replace them with the ones where LOS source is located after you've did the changes for newer security patch.

2) Remove the whole folder with sources, fork LOS's manifest to your github, do the needed modifications to track your repos and then do a whole sync by using the modified manifest.

3) In manifest, use "remove-project", then add your remote, then remove the folders from source which corresponds to the " remove-project" you've did and then do a repo sync. This way the LOS's repos (which you've removed with remove-project) will get ignored during repo sync, so it'll clone/sync the repos from your github.

:o Yes, I said it had built for me, but I have not flashed it :p. Did not have time to test that, but thanks for clearing it up. Probably, as I sync'ed before the build it has the security patches. I will test later today. I really only can put about 3-4 hours a week into this as I am constantly interrupted by work or family.

For some reason I can't boot in Android on 2 latest builds.

Just constant logo after flashing and reboot.

December 2017 build works ok.

What might be the cause of this?

[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] IevgenSobko:
Thanks for the answer.

I already resolved it few hours ago by flashing TWRP backup of working boot system that I did before trying to flash newer version.

:good: Thanks for your work on Nova roms.

[MENTION=4471434]#Henkate[/MENTION], what partitions is nessesary for backup ROM from TWRP, boot system and data is enough?
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Yes, it's enough. You can backup only system and boot if you want only to boot and you don't care about the data. However, having a backup of other partitions (e.g. cust, product) is good as you might need them in future. E.g. there were people who had errors in recovery about failing to mount cust/product and [MENTION=4699730]Vinnom[/MENTION] couldn't boot LOS/AEX anymore due the cust error.

Today i find info about redmi note 4 and 4x, they never have JDI displays, only BOE and Tianma. But i have JDI, so i think that's why i have bugs with display and sensor.

List of Xiaomi devices that haveJDI displays: mi note 3, mi 5, mi 5s, mi 5s plus. If you have time and opportunity to integrate drivers from any of these devices into your firmwares, I will be grateful. I prefer AOSP.

---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 AM ----------

I hope for Project Treble. Developers says that if we have in stock ROM big partition "vendor", more than 400 MB, it is possible with little effort make support Project Treble on our phone. Necessary port drivers from the same hardware where treble is implemented officially. It very good information, I hope anybody will do it.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] babysocola1x:
holy s**t ... so sorry ...

:) and you say goodbye NOVA or buy an old one ???
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
The sources are mentioned in the first post...

As for Treble, i don't remember the size of our vendor partition, but i'm sure that is bigger than that (i think i still have a txt file on linux with the sizes of all paritions; you can check on your own too though). I was planning to add Treble support as well, considering that Redmi Note 4 (mido) got it. I'm not up to date, but maybe other phones got as well.

I've announced that my Nova is broken in the day it broke (if someone doesn't believe me, i can take new pictures and write my name on paper or maybe a video lol).

I don't have any money to repair it (and i won't have any soon if i won't get a job), but even if i would get money i wouldn't spend my own money to repair it because the headphone jack is broken as well (possible something else too if you read my whole post where i've announced). Despite being a good phone, i also wouldn't buy an used Nova with my own money because i'd rather get a new phone with Oreo out of the box and good XDA support.

To recap, if i get donations to repair my Nova or to buy an used Nova or if i get a Nova itself as donation, i would gladly continue the development. But i wouldn't spend my own money (which i don't even own as of now) to repair it or buy an used Nova (i'd rather buy a phone launched in 2018, like Redmi Note 5 Pro for example). As of now, it's "goodbye Nova" as you've said.

Recently, [MENTION=4850735]wangdaning[/MENTION] has asked me if i'd like to have Nova again and after i've contacted him through PM, he said that maybe he can help me with a Nova, so i would be able to continue the development then and support it as long as the phone would work. [MENTION=4850735]wangdaning[/MENTION] please let me know if it's ok that i've mentioned you in this post. If you're not, i'm sorry and i remove this part.

PS: i'm not begging for anything with this post lol. I've just wanted to tell y'all how things are. If i'm not mistaken, i've told you already before too.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Well, If I'm not mistaken, vendor is mounted in /system/vendor, right?

If yes, right now I have 1.7 GB free for it. So Treble fit here lol

About the PS, easy man. We all now how much you did for this community (you and gt_o really worked hard for LOS and AEX to work) and I think I can say that we would glad help you. I hope that wangdaning succeeds in this and we have you back again :)

In the meantime, I'm still trying to build something xD
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] imkoma:
Ups sorry Henkate :D

The camera does one picture an then cant take anymore so i need to close the app and try again

The front camera in low light takes the picture with weird colors like green and blue. But not always happend just sometimes. Is a minor ussue i will try to take a log. but i need to read some tutorials to do that XD
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Yep, I tried to boot it after flashing only rom and gapps. I tried after flashing only rom too.

I always let it trying to boot at least for 15 minutes, when it is a first try (most times, it boots in less time).

Here it is =)

I think that the only explanation for this behaviour, should be it. But I was able in the past to use bluesmoothie backup in my device, which seems incompatible with this hypothesis. However, I tried to flash and boot bluesmoothie backup today, I couldn't boot it either.

PS: I let the device trying to boot for about 10 minutes.

PS2: I tried all of your builds. In the past, I was able to boot them, although the camera fc problem. Now, neither of them are booting. I think this issue may have began after my last update followed by the magisk thing (the steps to have a decrypted data in twrp)
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Huh, i have no such issue.

There are so many tutorials about that, so have a good read and come back with the logcat :D.

Sorry if i post again here but i'm having issues on unlocking my bootloader (MLA-L11 EMUI5 stock) and googling for solutions didn't helped. I keep getting (status read failed (too many links)) when typing fastboot oem unlock xxxx.

I posted in the bootloader unlocking thread a more detailed post, but i got no help from there. Feel free to delete my post i know it's OT, i just don't know what to do and i wish i could try LOS 14 :(
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] sk8buoy:
Hi Robert, when I do as the note says my phone reboots and get stuck to LOS bootanimation and never boots unless I force reboot it and then it happens again.

Is there a reason for that or what happens if I don't rename the file logd ? Is there an impact ?

Thanks !
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Hi sk8buoy,

I dont understand why you are experienced that. I had no problems and neither [MENTION=5418262]gt_o[/MENTION].

Just to make sure, you have renamed "logd" (file from /system/bin) to "logd.bak" and then rebooted?

The CPU has high cpu load (one core stays at 100% always) and the cores stays at maximum frequency. You can check that with an app like Kernel Adiutor. After researches, it looks like /system/bin/logd is always taking 100% CPU and the actual process using that much CPU is logd.klogd. Klogd stands for Kernel Log Daemon.

So something is wrong with the stock kernel. We have tried to find out what is really causing that issue, but as of now we couldnt find it.

I also think that finding the real issue might take more time than would take to bring up the CAF kernel. Therefore, bringing CAF should be the priority right now.

If you are not renaming "logd" to "logd.bak", you will experience unecessary battery drain and possibly unecessary heat or lag during heavy tasks such gaming.

Im sorry for the inconvenience, but as ive wrote at notes, this is a temporary workaround until the issue gets fixed or until the CAF kernel is brought up.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] sk8buoy:
Yes I renamed logd to logd.bak and rebooted.. it boots then after a couple minutes it reboots then get stuck at bootanimation forever. But not renaming the file don't seems to cause me any issues so I might let it that way until CAF becomes available.

Thanks again for your time
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] gt_o:
You could also try stopping logd after the boot. Use a terminal:

su

stop logd

With "top" you can verify in the end that it's not using 100% cpu any more. The top command also needs to be run with su rights.

Maybe that helps as a workaround, but has to be done after every boot.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
I see. That's kinda weird though, since I have no issues. I don't have any idea about that right now.

Regarding CAF, we've started to work on it today, although we haven't worked together on it yet. [MENTION=5418262]gt_o[/MENTION] has started to work on it earlier than me, since I didn't have access to PC and he doesn't have a github account yet.

I think I won't publish any further release unless CAF is brought up or the issue with stock kernel will be solved (which I don't think it'll happen any soon, so is better to work on CAF one in my opinion)..

Nice tip!

What I've tried before is "killall logd" which didn't stop logd, since it was restarting. The "stop" command looks promising.

To all people: There's a poll going on: whether you want Substratum or not. You better vote your choice as I think my decision will be based on the result of the poll, after it ends. Although, as of now, it looks like the final result will be "yes", I'll keep waiting till the poll ends, on 27 November.
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] sk8buoy:
I use cpu-z and it's telling me my cpu is running aroud 20% when doing nothing... It seems alright to me...

Anyway don't focus on me :) get CAF working for everyone. Thanks to all those who puts time in developing for us !!
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] Vinnom:
Not so alright, because all of your cpus are stuck on max freq. Btw, it is around 20% when all the cores are stuck in max freq... This is an abnormal behaviour.

All cores in max freq should be an expected behaviour only when cpu load is super high

[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] raicevic:
So far, so good!

Installed with Open piko Gapps, rooted with Magisk 14 (cannt install any Magisk module, error message /data/magisk_merge.img mount failed...), but root works.

Xposed Installer works well, v3.1.2, and GravityBox[N].

But, all of cpus are stuck on max freq when the display is on (i did renamed logd to logd.bak), and a little heet is present. With Emui was cold like a stone.

Thanks #Henkate
[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Regarding logd, it looks like you are the second guy which report that renaming it doesnt solve it for some reason.

Please try this other workaround, [MENTION=7880975]sk8buoy[/MENTION] has reported that it is working that way.

Once you do that, it shouldnt heat anymore unless you are charging it. Thats when my phone gets hot, just a bit.

Thank you too for your feedback!

[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
I've never experienced this kind of error, but try to format data (not wipe, but format!) in TWRP > Wipe > Format (or something like this). Keep in mind that this will wipe your internal memory.

[Huawei Nova/Nova Plus ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] #Henkate:
Yes, they're working. There's also a list in the first post about what's working and what doesn't work.

Update your phone to EMUI 5 if it was on EMUI 4 or try to restore this TWRP backup of product partition. Someone has confirmed that's working in both cases. I'll update the thread later and make a post about it again.

That's so disrespectful. I mean, you should thank him for sharing the builds...

Based on his post, he just provided a build with updated security patch. Since LOS 14.1 is still getting security patches "officially", he synced the sources to get the latest changes from LOS repos and made a new build. That's all. It's not like it's his fault for your issue in the first place.

As for your issue, I understood that you've passed the Google account setup at the start after disabling the network. You couldn't log in your account after that neither?

I sincerely apologize, I meant no disrespect. I was dead serious in thanking him. I was typing the post at 2 AM and it didn't seem offensive. Once again, I meant no harm.

On another note, it seems that the issue was not the ROM, as I tried flashing AEX again with the same Gapps package and it gave the same issue. I will try his updated ROM again with an old Gapps package that I have previously used.
