(*) GREAT NEWS: CVE Kernel patcher is live! Read all about the journey here
According to the Android standard, all patches missing from the January builds are of course included.
In general, the February builds mark another milestone for the project:
all dependencies to DivestOS have been either replaced or optimized.
It was really a journey up to here and even though I was pretty sure that it will be tough getting things settled I never expected the amount of work it took at the end..
Of course there are still things not fully finished especially when it comes to documentation (your help would be greatly appreciated!).
Nevertheless I was able to get the CVE Kernel patcher in a (for-me) usable state, dived deep into several stuff Tad did in the past (kudos again!) and finally was able to remove some boundaries as well.
Thanks again for your patience during all this time and sorry for the delay this caused to the regular builds. This should become better now (knocking on wood)!

2025 - January
Important
- If you haven’t read the Divest EOL statement, please do so: here
- Due to this and the massive amount of work this brings the January builds will delay and require manual changes by the user
- Even though good progress has been made there is still an open issue regarding the Kernel patching process. Due to several open questions the builds will not receive any kernel related patches for January. The current plan is to have them implemented with the February releases.
