I was wondering why dont we have any interested developer to maintain AOSiP or Nitrogen? I used it in my RN3P and found these 2 ROM's to be exceptional. Now I have switched to Mi5 and as far as I've seen we have very few maintainers compared to RN3P....
Maybe you did not saw it, but I maintained Nitrogen for Mi5 till a few weeks ago.
The problem is that Nitrogen has dropped CAF support. Maybe you can take a look at Dirty Unicorns, its a really nice rom and has a lot of the settings Nitrogen also offers.
BTW: AOSiP is in the works afaik.

Apologies as I didnt see it. Now I screened through the threads and found it and saw you've dropped it after 27Mar build. As far as AOSiP...thats great news. Currently on AOSP Extended and looking forward to AOSiP. That was the last ROM I was using on my RN3P and quite frankly the best CAF ROM I've experienced on that device with a plethora of necessary features (An Ain1 tbh). My wife forcefully snatched it from me after seeing that performance and gave me her Mi5.
Anyways...thanks for taking the time and replying. Eagerly waiting for AOSiP
@33bca I was just curious...do u have any idea about the progress of AOSiP? Not asking for ETA but was very curious to know....
i'm not him but he said on 2nd wave, so i guess 2 weeks since AOSiP release

Damn, there are so many great things in development! I want to know what you guys want to see the most? Personally, AOSPA is at the top of my list. New Xceed kernel and a new VertexOS are high up as well! The R4 Render kernel seems like it's going to be a beast!
Aospa will be released when the xiaomi mi6 kernel sources will release. That means in about 3-4 months...

I am syncing source now. I just got this phone and I am no well known developer or anything but I did help port cm in the past to different devices and would love to get it working on this phone. I will hopefully have a build up this week.

So you always start with stable os and then try and get it working on future/newer releases once you have a stable build. Ideally it will be 16 but honestly it may have to start at 15 even. I'll know more once I get it to build. I am still trying to figure out why no one has done this already for this device. I've had no issues getting vanilla gsis running on this phone so it's odd that no one is developing unless I'm missing something obvious (I've been out of the loop with Android for a few years) or nobody who builds has the phone they opted for a one plus/Samsung/rog etc. I'm hoping the reason is that we just lack developers not that there's a hurdle I'm not aware of. I last built Android on KitKat so I've been trying to get caught up on the development and changes since then. Our hardware is almost identical to the note and there's a ton of devices with aosp builds that share our peripherals so the majority of the data is there from what I can see.

Great to hear! Hope it goes well!
I too was wondering if it was just a matter of lack of developers considering Razer has released the sources for the device on their developer portal (Link if anyone wants to check it out)
And a question, will the built in Dolby Atmos be a possibility to port over to run in Lineage?
anything further on plans for this?
I'm going to be building myself soon I'll post if I'm successful I've only built for one other device before so we will see.
Anyone get anywhere with this?

Hi guys! Just want to ask regarding custom ROM developer for our device as I noticed that there is only one developer that is working as of now. And based on his thread his not willing to work with anyone.
My question is any chance that there for other developer to work on our device? Coming from my previous device(mia1) lineage is well supported, little bit worried plus this is also my first time using miui and I'm not impressed. But hardware is top notch plus no moving parts ,this is a good device.
This question is just query without any demand to anyone. Thank you.
I'm using Pixel Experience GSI bro, and straight up not having a good time, but still better than miui (it's my personal taste). At this point, consider how this device had been out, i dont think we see any official roms any time soon
Unfortunately, the smartphone doesn't get the attention it deserves. But hope dies last.

Yes you're right. I think mi 9 lite is superior than mi 9 se(small battery) and mi9t(moving front camera. Only downside is the processor,but you will not notice the difference in day to day task. Hopefully some devs will notice our device as this one should be the mia3. If @Flex can help us,that will be great. No 1 contributor to mia1.

I'm also working on a rom for the device. There sure is a steep learning curve. At the moment, building roms that are based on Android 10 are quite a pain due to the fact that Xiaomi has not released the Android Q kernel source for pyxis. They're still on Pie.

I dont have this phone yet. I have a Mi8.
But here is my guess.
They probably dont have full access to source code yet
They are young, but able students so their time is limited.
A lot of the users are highly entitled and dont appreciate their hard work and rarely if ever, make a donation to them so why bother.
Rock Star developers from the past are burned out on making roms, and too busy with professional life projects.
As I mentioned I am considering this phone, and do not know anyone her yet. Hopefully the best developers stick around and build a legacy and loyal/supportive followers.
If you have not tried Xiaomi.EU its pretty fantastic, It's like a much more westernised version of Miui with the most annoying bloat and adware completely removed.
@tsongming has a great point and I'll add that for android 10 there are at least these:
LineageOS 17.1 Unofficial
Evolution-X 4.0 Unofficial
Havoc
Extended UI based
Derpfest
Bootleggers
Paranoid Android Quartz
Pixel experience
and also all the miui variants
As the name says, it's custom, 3rd party, there's no obligation for anyone to make it. Developers make what they want to make. Especially since it's not a paid work, it's totally their choice. Just appreciate that there are some available and give donation if you use them.

The customs that are avaiable, unofficial or not almost all use the same source... thats why they have basicly all the same bugs.
But why they moved to telegram? some off them are fed up with people complaining, although its free off charge and they all do it in spare time. I dont know iff this is the case for majority but for some this is the case.
But i also regret its moved to telegram
But the source code is released only lately so now devs can build better, more stable roms..
Keep in mind i am not a dev off any roms provided above
Hi community!
There is a WIP (Work in Progress) ROM being mainly developed by @Rortiz2 and @diegocr: https://github.com/LOSMantis
Current ROM Status:
- Not Stable
Not Working:
- Sound
- OMX
- Maybe more...
Developers out there that would like to join development are welcome!...
Notice: This is a WIP ROM. It needs to be compile from the source (build steps could be adapted from the Nexus Player https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/fugu/build) if someone wants to try it out. Ready to flash builds would maybe be available when the ROM is more stable. Please do not ask for ETA, it is being developed in the spare time of the developers!

Yes, but full of bloatware, with some blocking mechanisms or black listed apps, no Google Play Store...
We are not allowed to change the home app easily, to use the standard Android settings without Amazon home app, not install already purchased apps on the Google Play Store and so on...
With root you can disable remove the "bloatware", although personally i dont think there is much i dont use. The fireOS TV is fairly smooth and easy to navigate. The android TV version is worse (IMO, I have a NVidea). You can disable the NIMH app, although i have yet to find any app it is blocking. The play store for androidTV is horrible. LauncherX is fairly easy to install. As with tank and sloan, i would expect issues with roms.

Hi Rortiz2,
Why are you so mad about this thread? We did not ask for a working ROM or any release dates and we appreciate all your time and dedication to the project...
As I wrote in the subject, this is a WIP (Work in Progress) ROM... Have seen so many threads like this in other forums here on XDA where the ROM only boots but nothing works...
I have created this thread to allow other devs to join the project (if nobody talks about it, than nobody knows that a project already exists and can not help).
But if you would like to do this project alone, just tell me an I will delete this thread...
Best regards,
Michael

I got really excited when I saw this thread. I cannot wait for stock Android for the Firestick 4K. I will 100% donate to the dev's who get this working!!

+1 for a test build, I've got a bricked 4k that boots both the hacked bootloader and TWRP, but whatever image I install has no display...
So I would like to try anything else even if stuff is broken on it (just to see if I can get a display).
thx.

It's at developer's discretion to discuss or release test builds here and considering that this particular rom still has some major bugs (call them deal breakers if you want), then i personally agree with the devs not releasing it yet.
Also, i didn't tested personally, but probably a custom rom like this may also break some features available on stock rom.
This being said, i'm sure that it will be released as soon as the guys behind it will consider it stable enough.
P. S. BTW, thread title is misleading and probably aldo violates XDA rules.

I totally understand and respect that. I did bring up having some kind of developer/user test build done just in case that could help further along getting said bugs fixed by getting catlogs that might help narrow down what is causing the issues. But if the devs feel that doing that would only slow things down (or even not help at all) then I respect that decision.

That's the nature of things when it comes to Lineage OS ROMs (and AOSP in general). Sometimes devs are able to get the ROMs to have nearly all the functionality of the device working... and sometimes not. But I generally prefer Lineage myself due to the overall experience being faster since LOS tends to not have all the bloat that stock ROMs sometimes have - especially Amazon devices which feel so bloated down with garbage I will never use.

Hi Pretoriano80,
As I already replied to one of the devs, I never asked for a release date or ROM for flashing. The title also is marked as WIP (Work in Progress), that means that the ROM is in development and not ready for use...
I have seen that you already made a great job with the custom kernel. Thanks! Would you also like to help this project as it seems it also can use your kernel? Kernel dev with ROM devs would be the best team!
Thanks again to all devs that work hard for releasing new stuff for the Amazon devices...
How's the progress so far?
Looks like nothing much: https://github.com/LOSMantis/android_vendor_amazon_mantis
Too bad !!
dead project ?
I made a test build (with many warnings). Also I used the kernel from @Pretoriano80.
You can download it here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=324510
Please note that I couldn't test this out yet, so be careful of what you do. (Will try it out for myself soon)

it's not worth to test since it's a dead project, it would be more usefull to begin a new project developing LineageOS 16 rom , At least we will be able to use the new Android/Google TV UI.

LineageOS 16 won't ever be able to happen for the Mantis version because it doesn't support treble, the most it could do is LOS 14.1 since it's a legacy device.
