        There is a build of LOS/Halium for Android 13 so kernel and Halium should not be a problem.

          Poking around a bit more, I think the standalone kernel method should work on the S5 since it's on mainline. Gonna try that route.

              @Keneda Are you aware of an existing device tree in UT for the S5? I can only find kernel and halium-install sources for S5, not rootfs sources.

                Mainline kernel for S5, just for reference

                  Found a valid deviceinfo file we can use with minimal edits from the postmarketOS downstream kernel

                    @Keneda should we prefer mainline kernel or pmOS kernel?

                      Receiving this error while trying to build mainline for S5 using breakfast/brunch, system appears to be complaining that it can't find the device tree although I just posted the device tree both in mainline and pmOS above. This is honestly not behavior I've ever witnessed from breakfast/brunch before...

                        Kernel compiles and boots! Added necessary Halium config files, next step is compiling rootfs. I still can't find rootfs source for the S5.

                          I'm not a porter at all and don't have knowledge about such things.
                          You should try telegram halium group given in the thread I put link above.

                            @tenbucket why do you call it mainline? Its version is very old, 3.4.113. Mainline usually means what Linux upstream is

                              @faveoled I should say "used to be mainline"

                                @faveoled "True mainline" 5.2 is being tested by the pmOS team ATM. It compiles and boots however there are missing modules.

                                  Can anyone help me merge drivers and modules into Android kernel 5.2 "true mainline"? I can theoretically do the work on my own but I have an obligation today and it would take a long time on my own anyway

                                    We are ready for merge to "true mainline" Check the GitHub repo. I need someone with merge acces to mainline to perform the merge for me.

                                      Again you should go on the halium telegram group.
                                      Forum is more for reporting port state and find tester in community and get feedback from them than for finding porting help.
