Fairphone 2 and CyanogenMod / LineageOS

OK, so I finished syncing the repos and I was about to launch a build.

As far as I see the idea behind is to take a device with same hardware as a starting point for the CM build, in this case the MSM8974AB. I see this referenced on many places as the FP2 SoC…

However, my device reports this:

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep Hardware                                
Hardware    : Qualcomm MSM8974PRO-AA

Should I trust Android’s info or the spec sheets? I see this model is also used on the OnePlus X and is actually not the same chip as the AB. It would be something in between the snapdragon 800 and 801 series (CPU from the 800 and GPU from the 801) but it’s not very well documented. Would this have any implications with the build?

PS: I just came over this thread and I see I’m not the first to realize :confused:
