[Linux User]

Yu Yureka CyanogenMod 14 (CM14) Nougat ROM Update is now available from an Unofficial build. In addition to this we also have the Lineage OS 14.1 for Yu Yureka. For latest updates, stay tuned to the Lineage OS device list page. Since Google released Android Nougat Source code, we have also updated Android NOUGAT for Yureka 7.0 AOSP ROM. This Yu Yureka CM14 ROM is brought to you by developer karthick111, another one by HridayHS and one more by Prathamesh.

DISCLAIMER:

• I DON’T KNOW THE STATUS OF THIS ROM YET. THIS COULD BE AN INITIAL ALPHA ROM OR JUST A DEVELOPMENT ROM. IT MAY NOT BOOT AT ALL OR IF AT ALL IT BOOTS THEN IT MAY NOT BE USABLE AS A DAILY DRIVER. I JUST FOUND THE ROM AND POSTED HERE. TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK. ALSO MAKE SURE TO TAKE NANDROID BACKUP OF YOUR CURRENT ROM.
• I don’t want to waste your time and my time too and hence I basically verify the system/build.prop and/or updater-script to get the build details at the first place before posting any ROM. I may be wrong at times and hence it is your responsibility to verify once more about the legitimacy of the ROMs.
• Installing a custom ROM on a the Yureka may require the bootloader to be unlocked and installed with a custom recovery, which may VOID your warranty and may delete all your data. Before proceeding further you may consider backup all data on the phone. You are the only person doing changes to your phone and I cannot be held responsible for the mistakes done by you.
