Isn't our device NX729J? I don't see kernel source released for this... Sounds like they giving you the run around. They would sell a lot more phones if they did release. I almost didn't buy one due to this.. Hopefully they will release it soon.

Edit: Cool! It's finally released!

Very soon, not now...so let us wait a few more days or weeks

I see there are 7S and 6S kernels, but I don't see any custom ROMs for them, so idk if we will see any for this phone too.

The repo is now available, however, it's empty by the time of me posting this now. It took them two weeks just to create the repo, that's insane. Well, at least it finally happened. Waiting for sources to be uploaded, they probably have to use slow vpn or something to do that, so it might take quite a bit of time.

What can we do with the kernel source?

So it is here.

Well, apparently we'll have to write drivers for our device:

# nubia driver
drivers/nubia
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/nubia
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J_diff.config
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J-perf_diff.config
arch/arm64/configs/vendor/NX729J_driveronly.config

This is from .gitignore, so we can't build this kernel and run it i.e. on stock rom.

So... What does that mean for new custom roms

We're not gonna see them until someone writes these drivers or zte publishes them. Both are very unlikely, so...

Seems like they uploaded it again, on zips. I checked and it seems to contain several things inside the /drivers/nubia folder so we probably have now a full workable kernel source
