Guys rather than whining about Xiaomi not releasing the kernel source code Why not we force them to release it.
We can sign in for this petition and get the kernel source codes of the device we purchased
We totally need 500 supporters. Already there are 354 supporters
Please help and fight for your kernel source rather than begging them :highfive::fingers-crossed:

Soon?? Dude its been a long time since mi3 was released...kernel sources should be released with the release of phone.
I thought at least after releasing mi4 they might release. But again he told it will be released. Most probably in fall that's a log time
True...
They sud release it right away...
either fix the existing bug on miui ( push notification ) or release kernel so that we can get on with cynogenmod ...

Just a hope and a try
You guys also need to understand that the petition won't do any good as no one can enforce it as the company is safe behind China's laws.
The only way you will make a difference is maybe a petition to stop buying their devices until they start following the gpl like everyone else.

@thejoker has got the main point.
The next best phone at 220$ is moto g which dropped 20$ after mi 3 release.
Except that the only choice is Asus zenfone
The cheapest SD 800 phone is nexus 5. Which still costs almost 500$
A used one costs 400$
This is the only device we can get and let's see what happens. It takes a few secs for sign up.
What's there to loose?

And Hugo himself said in an Interview that source code will be released by the end of this year

That's why we made this forum. So the users could get together and help change them. They will have to change a few things before they can think about releasing the device in many parts of the world. At first HTC and Samsung were doing the same thing. The users rallied and now they release it right away.
If they don't change then this forum will be a failure and be removed.

Yes. Without XDA there were no devs ready to even make a unofficial ports.
Only thanks to it there are 3 Roms ....
.see we have nothing to loose to try
But after meeting them yesterday and after explanation came to know that Xiaomi looses most of its users to aosp and the only profits they get from cloud and other software services will be gone.
Once again xiaomi is not a hardware oriented company like Samsung etc

It doesn't matter if they are or not. They are required by law to release it upon device release.
No big surprise they lose most to aosp not a lot of trust for a closed sourced distro that one day had nothing and then the next had enough capital to start a company. Makes me wonder if other rumors are true.

As said, i can remove this license!!!!!
you also have to provide the source for all GPL projects upon request (where you have modified source code, otherwise you can point to the original project), that includes DGO's kernel - and as far as i know he's refusing to release the source (which is illegal and unethical anyway)
you probably just need to use another kernel in that case (there are many good / better ones anyway)
I have promised myself not to say anything about this, everything will be explained in favor of XDA. So it does not matter what we say regarding this issue.
I have stopped all my development activities on XDA.

Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire. Heinlein

probably because XDA is in fact, right
Not only they are but they have a legal obligation to make people mostly respect the laws. They allow a lot of margin (technically a lot of the rom repacking with samsung's property for example isn't exactly legal) so the XDA hating because complying to a few simple and fair licenses is "too hard" is rather dumb.
Suppose this topic will be moved to a proper location or closed also
I created this hashtag so those of us who are still waiting for the kernel sources to be pushed out for OP3/3T, twelve days after the official update to Nougat, can make an active affirmation on Twitter, Facebook, reddit, Instagram and so on... in an organized way.
I am not a developer.
Rather an enthusiastic user with taste for that special flavour on my device.
I'm not trying to start a discussion here, it has already started on development threads.
Now make some noise, but please be civilized.

Honestly, that's a pretty awful tag. Should be like half that length.
They said they don't want to release bad code.
They said 4.0.2 is coming next week.
They are not yet confident with their N releases. Fair enough.

If it's good enough to be publicly released as stable OTA, then it's also good enough for code release.

It's not about spamming. It's about asking for the sources. If they drop them before sending the first units when releasing a device they should do the same for new system updates.
Paranoid me is thinking that they dropped Nougat, everyone updated... Gathering data for weeks, going to throw another update our way and release sources after they scrubbed the data suckers.

XDA-Developers Urges OnePlus to Comply with GPLv2 and Release Kernel Sources
While XDA-Developers, and a large sector of its user base, have been routinely impressed by OnePlus’ commitment to supporting the developer community, we’ve been anxiously awaiting the release of kernel sources for the OnePlus 3/3T since the release of Android Nougat on December 31, 2016. [...]

Let's cut them some slack, they want it very usable before they release it, its not like they would never
I can't find anything about "cutting some slack" on the GPL license, but it's clear that they have to release the source code even if it is full of bugs.
Thread closed at OP's request.
My small team made a decision. We are finnaly creating our own custom ROM and it will be called Android Open Source Dark Project( based on AOSP as how name suggests), and for sure it will have official support for this device and P8Lite 2017, and many other. Currently we are recruiting members since we are too few to make a ROM by ourselves.
News: ROM Development has officially started.
I will not leak too much features now but first version will be based on nougat Oreo, will have a full, true dark mode and will be blazingly fast. The rest you'll find out when we'll release it.
If you think you have all what we need and you want to work with us, here is a form where you can apply freely: Android Open Source Dark Project Application
Estimated release date: November 2018
Best Regards,
Anyone who wants to find out the latest news about the ROM join the Telegram group: Android Open Source Dark Project Telegram
suport for chc—u01?

Here a beta tester for you. I own P8 Lite 2015 and I am using now other phone as a daily driver so I can do tests without problems and provide logcats.
Luck anyway
Hope you and your team may add hardware nav button mapper(like on aospa and dot os)
Good luck ?

My only question is.... Why? Aren't here already 10+ roms, 100+ garbage custom ones with 0 support? Why you need to make 1 more? How will this help us or anyone? Why not just sending patches and commits to other custom roms and use those, or join them?

Okay. You want a public explosion? Here's a public explosion.
First of all, the beef isn't with you, so you should've stayed quiet because it has nothing to do whatsoever. Until now.
You are a great dev, and you did indeed help me a lot when I was a begginer in Kirin development, but that was a month ago when I didn't know anything. And as much as you help and as much as I like your work, you need to make up your mind. May I ask how many times have you left Kirin development then came back? Is that how it works for you? Why can't you try and develop for both of your devices? You also claimed you got DU Oreo working with everything except til, why didn't you publish a beta? And why did you delete most of your sources? You do realize that kernel sources need to be availible publicly for roms to stay on XDA right?
As for the other guy I asked him ONCE for help, and he didn't even reply, so I can't say he helped, I still figured it out on my own. But that guy that you trust so much and protect like he's your son, is the same guy who dmd me a few weeks ago asking me to build lineage for him to publish on XDA.
So stop. Both of you aren't powerful and mighty, and neither am I. This has nothing to do with you, it's between me and the other guy (who asked me to dm him on telegram then blocked me lol), not between you and me. The fact that he even asked you for your help just shows he needs his buddies to go and step up for him because he can't do it himself.
Was this supposed to be a public beef? No. But it seems like it's what you wanted, so here's a favor for you.
P.S how the living hell is it immature to ask for help when you don't know something?
This is all that I am going to say, and I have no more ****s to give about this. I like who I like and don't who I don't. I don't like the other guy, so what?

I have some of my personal points to say:
1. This is not the place for fights here. If you all fight like some children, well find another place since this is not the good one.
2. Everybody has the right to a opinion and if we think your ROM is crappy this is how it's going to be. In life you won't find anywhere happy guys which will like everything.
3. You should't complain at all since ~1 hour ago you came into our pubilc AOSDP group and started begging my team members to get you in our team. Didn't you say you don't have any time to work even on your ROM? Then why you want to work on another one?
And last, 4. If I was developing EspositoOS I would've considered the AOSDP a threat and not a place to beg team members to get you in the team.
Do not continue your fights here, this is a announcement thread and not a fight club.
Thanks for understanding,

Yes But...
Are any Developer's even buying this device?
That's The Million Dollar Queston..
Waiting To See What Happens..
I am interested in this device, but waiting to see how many dev's start working on it?

This was the situation with Lenovo p2. But dev's eventually got in and now they have a great development curve.... the p2 users donated money for one dev to buy p2 for development and well. That was initiated by a user. And development kickstarted soon after.

donation, but also how we can contact a developer for kernels and custom roms, i really want to see all s10 features on this device, also missing features like original samsung vibrate on touch for navbar and samsung keyboard.

We can check in custom rom telegram groups for this. But also check with certified developers in xda as well. PM would do here.

But first, we need to organize users who would be able and willing to donate. Once enough people are there and we can figure out on total if the amount offered is sufficient enough, we can start contacting dev's. After we have a dev ready to help, then start pooling in money and purchase the set and send ot to the dev.

just a heads up. according to XDA rules. donation threads have to be created by the developer itself who is interested in the device development. he has to green lit such a thread with an XDA admin. if it gets created by forum users it gets closed pretty soon as it is against the rules.
so first step would be finding an recognized developer willing to spend his free time on the device.

two options comes to mind.
A: look into devs that were or still are maintaining Samsung (Snapdragon based) phones and might be interested in the A70.
B: look into devs that maintain a device that has the same SoC (or SoC family) as those devs will have less than half as much work (it does depend on how far the kernel deviated from code aurora code) to maintain a second device if they have already established the knowledge on the primary device.
E.T.A. Unknown..

The Operative Phrase Here Is: "Still Maintaining Samsung (Snapdragon Based) Phones".
In the U.S... Samsung Snapdragon devices have their bootloaders locked down.. ( Per Carrier's Request ) so you have Zero ROM Development..
IMO.. you have to love this device for what it brings to the table stock ( Widvine L1, Themes, AR Emoji, UI, Gaming etc ) just in case nothing Custom sprouts.. :angel:

I am trying to make twrp for the device. Because this is my first time, I need device tree to be prepared. As of now, my attempts have not given any results. If you can help, would be great.

Ah, kernel source code will be released soon...!!!!
What do you think, guys!?

Not receiving push notifications is fatal... I think too
Probably an optimization for the game, but it's not necessary.
However, I like the hardware very much.
Fastboot ROM source code will probably not be released as it is.
[email protected] or you're able to comment on the issue.

Let's laugh... Hah-hahha
Kernel will not be released, at least for while you're alive.
I'm hating all of this so much, a simple file, they have to upload a single file, and after 26-27 days nothing to be seen. This is not the only issue, there is another one with the same answer. It is as if air came out of thei mouths
Im trying to ask myself why still they haven't upload the kernel source yet? There's so much hardware potential on the phone being hold back just waiting to get unleashed .
Hoping they'll released it this year together with others 865 devices
i contacted them, the same Jason answered me :

Hello
We have not released KR for BS3 yet, which would take awhile for the leadership to make such strategic decision.
Best Regards,
Black Shark Global

We will if you stop thinking that way but instead you can comment on that github page coz the devs are replying there. Demand that we really need them to release the souces. You should get what's your $ worth and it might become your most worth it buy when they decided to release it

This is an LOL! If the LEADERS STRATEGY is to increase the sales, then releasing the kernel sources will definitely attracts more users because of the phone's development potential will increase by 10 folds.

Comment on GitHub? I answered every comment blacksharkcode has done, I contacted the email of the GitHub account. They're not replying, they replied one time, more than 30 days ago

I see. Thanks for doing that. Hmmm this is frustrating and disappointing. I wish there's a link where someone can truly help us report them coz its hard to think I'll be spending my months with a closed source device. It's fine if they're consistent on the security patches and ota s, but thats not been the case. I'd be willing to take a 3rd of my money back as a refund FAK I WILL NOT BUY ANY BLACKSHARK PHONE AGAIN EVER.
The question here is whether there is a person named Jason.
I also contacted Global Support twice, and Jason took care of it all.
Only distrust remains.
Took it to Xiaomi's github aswell, let's see if we can get an answer.
Blackshark 2/3/3s/3pro Kernel source · Issue #2191 · MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource
Will the kernel source for the Xiaomi Blackshark 3 be released soon? I did some research about promises from Blackshark/Xiaomi and i'm really worried! Sources for Blackshark 2 were promised but NEV...
github.com
Yes really good
Kernel! Kernel! Kernel! Custom Roms! Ahhhhhh! Kill me pls
I'm not sure but back on those days of Android 2.3.4, I used to successfully crossed ports official OEM firmwares from other devices with similar CPU/GPU. All that it need back then was a custom recovery of the port's recipient and a backup of the firmware we trying to port. I stopped playing around with my phones these passed few years, so I'm wondering if we could do that as well to the recent Android versions? I believed we have similar SOC/Android versions phones that's currently active in development. We already got custom recovery anyways.
