Problem dürfte auch sein, dass LineAge/Cyanogen ja immer mit dem internen Codenamen operieren (also auch diese Liste darauf basiert).

Ein Nexus5 = Hammerhead, N4 = Mako, etc.

Hi,

thanks for the feedback! Since our product descriptions are all created and maintained manually
the expense of monitoring and integrating custom rom support is just too great. So at the moment we dont have any plans to do so but we may consider integrating additional OS filter options in the future if possible.

Hallo,

Would it be possible to add a filter for alternative operating system support?
One such example is LineageOS (the successor to CyanogenMOD), but there are others as well.

For LineageOS, https://github.com/LineageOS/lineageos_updater/blob/master/devices.json contains a machine-readable device list against which mobile phone manufacturer and model name can be matched. From that list the code-name can be used to query the downloads API at https://download.lineageos.org/api/v1/devices and ascertain whether there is official support for that particular device for each LineageOS version.

If there is an entry in that list, then builds are available for download at https://download.lineageos.org/
