What is Code Aurora Forums ?

Code Aurora Forum (CAF) is a consortium of companies with projects serving the mobile wireless industry. Software projects it concerns itself with are e.g. Android for MSM, Femto Linux Project, LLVM, MSM WLAN and Linux-MSM. Code Aurora is basically AOSP plus all Qualcomm specific enhancements and optimization.

What is AOSP-CAF ?

AOSP-CAF is meant to join AOSP and CAF projects into a widely usable repository,
stored on https://github.com/AOSP-CAF/. It also benefits from a few LineageOS updates.
Finally, AOSP-CAF Nougat also includes OMS theming implementations.

Isn't it supposed to be Android 7.1?

 

[AdrianDC]

Isn't it supposed to be Android 7.1?

Correct, a left over from AOSP-CAF 6.0 on Huashan, thanks.

@AdrianDC Is it possible for you to give the files a more explanatory name at mega, I downloaded a file named AOSP-CAF-7.x.zip.
And a checksum would be nice.

 

[AdrianDC]

You're talking about the folder's name, look at the zips, they all detail the name, date and device.
Folder names won't be modified for compatibility and scripting reasons..

 

[lobotron]

Oh, I see, I downloaded a folders zip and it has the zip nicely named inside. Thanks.
