[Dell Venue] fcipaq:
This is a Lineage OS ROM of the Asus Zenfone 2 running on the Dell Venue 7840 (bb) and Dell Venue (7040) (which all are almost the same devices internally speaking).

This is based on Lineage OS 7.1.2, Kernel version is 3.10.72

All credits go to GiaSen​

This is an early stage of development and probably not feasible for every day use etc.

Use this at your OWN RISK. Experimental software may harm you, your device and others around you. I cannot be held responsible for any damage done. You have been warned!

DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DEVICE UNATTENDED, WATCH OUT FOR BATTERY OVERHEATING AND FAILURE. (Tough this has never happend (yet!) when testing...)

This will most likely VOID YOUR WARRANTY! (If warranty still applies to a two year old device...)

PLEASE, ONLY INSTALL THIS, IF YOU KNOW, WHAT YOU'RE DOING. I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MIGHT OCCUR. ALSO I CANNOT GIVE EXTENSIVE SUPPORT IN RECOVERING THE DEVICE.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I do not intend any further work on this. I am not using Android and I only adapted Lineage OS to this device, beause I need it for libhybris/HALIUM so that I can run Linux (thread coming soon).

I am only publishing this, because I have been requested to do so. So sorry, but I cannot offer support, but if anyone intends to take this any further I am willing to point you in the right direction.

What is working:

* Graphics

* External/internal storage

* Wifi

* Touchscreen

* Standby/Charging

What is not working:

* Sound :(

* Bluetooth :(

* GPS

* Sensors

* Cameras

I HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU MAKE A COPY OF ***ALL*** PARTITIONS

Especially factory. Corrupting this partition will prevent the depth camera system from working - forever!

You will need the system partition in case you want to revert to stock Android!!!

1.) Unlock your bootloader (there are guides online in case you don't know how to do that)

2.) Install Custom Recovery (you may as well use FBRL, see BACKUP)

Download and install TWRP (file attached below) for the Dell Venue 7840 (all credits goes to the TWRP team, all I did is pack my kernel into the image and change some fstabs...). WARNING:

3.) Install ROM

a) Download ROM: https://xdaforums.com/zenfone2/development/rom-xenon-hd-t3741323
