Hi,


I'm currently working on porting an Ubuntu Touch android tree to CM for the
UBports project, I have choose to base on cm12.1 so i can support newer
devices. I still have some work to do before I have an working tree
https://github.com/ubports/android/tree/ubp-5.1.1


1, I don't think there is
2, since it's a qcom device CM probably heavily depends caf to get it
working on that device. Like my port to OnePlus one i had to apply some caf
changes to the Ubuntu tree to get it working.



Best regards,
Marius
