Mine is on Android 6 and no OTA updates

Have a look here if you'd like nougat on your device, imho you will definately want to get rid of MIUI.

To be honest,I am disappointed in Xiaomi even Meizu is pushing updates faster in their budget mNote series it's been quite a while since MIUI9 only on developer rom only [emoji22][emoji22]

I thought with a phone with those specs and the high price, Xiaomi would be a little faster to push updates and keep it up to date but like every other brand, they want you to buy their latest model. They want your money and then you are left behind

Is Nougat likely to be available soon?

Hi everybody!
I'm fairly new to Mi phones and this might fit better in the rom forum, but does anyone know if there's work on a stock Nougat/Marshmallow rom for the Mi Mix? And if so, how soon my might be released?
Thanks!

Xiaomi differentiates their product by their MIUI skin. Marshmallow is the core of MIUi 8, I suspect they'll bring out MIUI 9 in the first quarter of 2017.
I'm hoping we get CM or AOSP for the Mix before then. That would be sweet

Xiaomi MI 6

Can anyone port the new xiaomi MI 6 to ONEPLUS 3
How do you Port Mi6? Do you mean MIUI? If so, then the latest version is 8.2.

If you want it, port it yourself. You can't expect people to spend months of hard work just for you Mr lazy. If you don't know what MIUI is you shouldn't be flashing things on your phone anyways... You'll probably brick something
Don't risk miui to one plus 3, you may brick it.

Agreed. 99% of answers can already be found by reading this forum anyways.
I'll try myself thanks any way
If you want Xiaomi MI6 like rom ( MIUI ) check this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/rom-miui-8-multiple-editions-t3479362
Again it's not possible to Port ROMs for devices if they have different underlying hardware and different manufacturers.
Hope this will help. Thanks!
Buy mi 6 or wait for op5. Mi6 rom easily portable to op5

Where are all the custom roms for the A2?

I'm sick of this buggy Android one "experience". I wanna flash a custom Rom but guess how many exist for the A2. 0 Roms exist. None. I know I should be patient, but it doesn't even seem like there will be official lineage os for this phone. Are there no developers for this phone? (outside of the hex kernel developer, thanks for developing the kernel!) It sucks that all the attention was taken away from the A2 by the Poco.
Edit: I'm not fond of the idea of converting to 6x.

Just out of curiosity, If you want so much a custom ROM, why don't you develop It yourself? Don't you think it's a bit too much to complain that no one took their free time and knolowedge to make your free roms?
That are so many people complaining that I'm seriously thinking of developing one and charging for It. How much would you pay for It?
Stock rom is full of bugs. Also it is not pure android it has some hidden bloatware (mi store etc).

Good question. I have no experience in rom developing or any kind of developing. I guess it does sound a bit selfish. But it's just that this is a nice phone and it doesn't have much development. Heck even my ZTE Blade V6 and Huawei p9 lite had more rom development.
I've never considered how much I'd spend on a rom. So I don't really have an answer.

For the MIA1 we have had to wait around 1 year for official lineage and around 8 month for unofficial version...
It will come for the A2, but not today.
And idem, no bloatware in my A2...

same here, I will wait for that day to come... I already unlocked bootloader (not fastboot unlock critical).. my earliest plan is to change to treble rom... but since it's pretty buggy here and there based on the comments that I've read , I canceled my plan and will wait for official pie update,or official custom rom such as lineage, arrow os or resurrection remix to come to our device, I will appreciate it ?

Caping isn't a bloatware, it's a preinstalled app on phones planned to be sold on taiwan market.
It isn't preinstalled in all phones, you can read this in the thread about this.
No need to install a 3rd party launcher, for example I use easyshortcut maker to explore inside my phone.
Usually people buy android one phones because they don't want custom roms I guess. They want stock Android

Look at how much development the mi a1 got tho.
Just a quick question. Isn't there loads of ROMs for this device or why is there a whole section about it named Xiaomi Mi A2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Development ?

Read the thread and you'll find the answer.
In short, no, there are none A2 specific ROMs in that thread and only one custom kernel. Others require you to convert to 6X or are Treble ROMs.
since mi a2 has project treble support, so why not you visit project treble thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble
Before official pie comes to a2, I managed to try pixel experience, aosp extended and arrow os from that thread..

That's a good news. Phone is good, but os is so bad, seems like my old ZTE axon 7, sep-2016 ~ jun-2019, finally I recycled to $35. Finally there just be few ROMs. I hope k20 pro don't encounter the same thing:crying:

There are a lot of very talented devs from India here on xda, so hopefully many of the POCO F1 devs will buy this phone and move their excellent work to this.
Mine has finally arrived and so far it's great, have removed as much bloat as I can and just waiting for the 7 days to finish when I can get the EU ROM on at least. Personally I would like to see official LOS on my phone.

LOS is simple and powerful, this is faith. I've just unlocked my phone days ago, EU ROM has some issues till now.

Talk about the issues, I've given up with EU ROM. I just fastboot flashed Android Q beta several hours ago, at least, it's pure Android experience.

It's something I'm considering trying. Do you know which release it is? Is it the beta 3 or beta 4 release? The official Xiaomi page doesn't give much info.
Was you using EU stable or development ROM?

No.
This from the Xiaomi android q beta webpage
Redmi K20 Pro:
1. Does not support fingerprint module.
2. “Settings” app crashes after user selects “App & Notifications” and shows a notification that says “Settings keeps stopping”
3. Unable to switch between multiple users.
4. There might be instances where videos downloaded from the Google Drive does not show length of video in the photo gallery.
5. Bluetooth search might not work for some specific keyboards. A known failed case is Logitech’s k380 keyboard.

Here are some informations in screenshot.
I was using EU development ROM when I meet random reboot issues, I think I should try EU stable later or next release.
Will official global ROM still get OTA if flashed on K20 Pro?

Yes, I found it on MIUI official site, but after days using, it's really not good at all. Please do not flash that ROM as daily ROM. If you like AOSP, check phh's thread, I will try it 3 days later when I unlock my phone.

Question Can I install a custom ROM for the Mi 10 on the Mi 11?

I have a Mi 11 and I want to replace MIUI 12 with something else because it performs really bad on rhythm games like BangDream and Project Sekai (lag, stutter, FPS drop).
I'm interested in the LineageOS PixelExperience ROMs. However, they only have released ROMs for the Mi 8 and Mi 10 but not Mi 11.
Once I have TWRP on my Mi 11, can I install one of the ROMs that was made for the Mi 8 or Mi 10?
If I can, will there be any issues?
Are you serious?
Indha Lezzio said:

Yes, I'm really tired of MIUI lag and stutter on rhythm games. I've put up with it on Redmi Note 3 and on the Mi 8 for years. I finally upgraded to Mi 11 thinking that even with MIUI's bad performance on rhythm games, the Snapdragon 888 would be enough to run the games without FPS drop and stutter but that wasn't the case.
So yeah, at this point I'm willing to try anything if it means I can use something that is not MIUI.
I dont know if phones are like PCs. I've installed Linux, Windows, and even MacOS on the same PC I built with custom hardware so I dont yet know of a reason why this wouldn't work with phones.
Do you have a reason to believe it won't work? What's so unique about a Mi 8 ROM compared to a Mi 11 ROM?

A ROM is not changing your shoes man... Before asking your question, you already know the answer... NO
Install a custom ROM like Lineage & PixelExperience or waiting MIUI 13.... YES
But actually there no custom roms AOSP available and MIUI 13 is scheduled for october.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know MIUI 13 was coming so soon. When MIUI 13 is released, will there be custom ROMs available for the Mi 11?
or why did you say to wait until MIUI 13 is released?

MIUI 13 deserve to waiting because he will based on Android 12. And for custom roms, just wait, device is not old and less expensive... so maybe some builder/modder will working on. LineageOS is bootable from few days, so if an AOSP base is available, with TWRP recovery in addition, a lot of ROMS should be available in the next months
