As of 10th November 2016, Xiaomi has released the kernel sources for Xiaomi Mi Pad 1 to the masses. How soon can we expect someone to pick this device up and give us some sweet custom ROMs for the device?
I would really like to see ROM devs like Official CM team or Official Mokee team or other teams like them to pick this device up and free use from the bonds of Kitkat oppression.
I also wouldn't mind seeing a functional build of MIUI 8 on top of Android 6.0.1 for Mi Pad 1.
I'll start to work on it pretty soon but I will need time since this is my first rom developpement, if anyone wants to join :

The Nexus 9 has 64 bit K1 dual core 'denver' processor
Mipad has 32 bit quad core k1 processor
Nvidia Shield has a variant with 32 bit quad core k1 processor as well.
Would it be easier for you if you use the shield's device tree instead ?
Sure, didnt notice that.. Anyway i dont have much time now and if im alone i dont know if its ever gonna happend but if i keep everything in a clean way then its easy for more people to join. I'll change and anamyse device tree and see
Hello, please also take a look at the following GitHub repositories:
vartom/android_device_xiaomi_mocha
vartom/android_vendor_Xiaomi_mocha
There's a mostly working CM11 build from this developer, so I think these repos may be useful.

Oh! Nice man. Thanks in advance. By the way, What should we look forward to ? A Marshmallow build? Or A Nougat Build ? Or a KitKat Build ?
Whatever it is, best of luck man. We will be looking forward to your good work.Best wishes for your success. A lot of hope will be riding on you.
I don't have time now so I will see how we should proceed. The point would be to gather devs in a group or something

I am curious if anyone is currently working on getting CM (or any custom ROM) working for our devices. I'm not trying to bug anyone or get an ETA, but I was thinking about attempting to port CM with their tutorial.
If anyone is working on porting a ROM, or has any tips for me I'd love to talk. Thanks.
I've just started looking into porting CM over to the 5x. I've never built a port before and I'm a bit lost in the CM documentation for it. Feel free to PM me or post below with any tips or advice.

I have only built unofficial builds before, but hopefully since we have source and other Huawei devices with CM, it should be fairly easy.
If you haven't built CM for a device that it's already been ported to, I'd recommend doing that before you attempt to port it.
Good luck. I'll post any progress I make.
Am too eagerly waiting for cm on 5x .fed up of bad performance from stock .heating up too much .I was really disappointed by the heating problem .
What else I had hopes On was the on cm12.1 or 13 .
I usually check for a thread if anyone build one cm ROM for our device but still the development haven't started !

It's still early. The fact that Huawei makes bootloader unlock codes available and has provided the amount of source code for the kernel that they have has allowed development here to happen much more rapidly than many devices do (particularly devices that lie out side of "volume" interest -- like an S5 or S6). I'm pretty optimistic.
The flip side is that life is so busy for me at the moment that it makes patience pretty easy (as in, if a stable cm13 suddenly became available I still would take my sweet time in getting around to flashing it). If I had more time on my hands it would probably be different.
Yes lets see how long we need to wait !
Can someone (hopefully a dev like @deadman96385, @EarlyMon @cyrusalmighty) confirm/agree that the Honor 5X's (I have KIW-24, US ver.) vendor = HONOR and codename = HNKIW-Q. I'm a little perplexed by what the codename is since HNKIW-Q doesn't seem right. I got that name from the build.prop ro.product.device like CM recommends.
Can anyone confirm that I have the vendor and codename right? Thanks.
EDIT: After looking at similar Huawei devices (Ascend Mate 2) it looks like the codename should just be "kiw". The Mate 2's actual ro.product.device = hwMT2LO3, but it's CM codename is "mt2." Because of this, I think for the CM codename should be "kiw". Does that sound right?

In theory but the kiw stands for kiwi this info is directly from Huawei and we all like Kiwi more lol. You also do have a L24 US variant

Thanks. So any custom ROM development for this device will be like Huawei/kiwi? I'm just wondering, because I'd like to know how I should be naming my files specific to Honor 5X ROM development.
EDIT:
Also, @deadman96385 do you mind sharing the partition sizes you used for building TWRP?
Name it kiwi .it sounds really great ! Moreover i dont what others are thinking on naming this device ,but kiwi is maximum minds .Go for it !

I didn't realize you had already started working on a CM port. I guess I can't really help out then. :/
Don't get me wrong, I do really appreciate all the work you do for this device.

That cm tree was just to build cm recovery we are still in the very early stages of a full cm tree.
Does anyone know if a cyanogenmod rom for mipad 2 is available?

Dear Developers and Hackers of XDA,
I just bought this tablet. I looked around on the MIUI forum for MI Pad 2 and see that there are ways to root a developer MIUI ROM for this tablet. I also see that there are also instructions to unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery. I am big fan of Cyanogemod and am hoping to have it on the tablet. Has anybody tried and/succeeded to port Cyanogenmod to this tablet?
Hoping for the best
Sincerely
dspati
Hi dEvasEnApati I'm in your situation! I hope to recive news as soon as possible because i want to install cyano!
Xda dev have you got some news?
Hi,
Following the instructions from the miui forum I managed to unlock the bootloader, root , install TWRP and AOSP rom. I was wondering what are the requirements to have a cyanogen mod for it? Are there CMs for devices with intel x86_64 hardware?
I'll get my mipad 2 soon! I think in a week or two then I'll Start heavy development on it ? i think of aosp is possible cm will be possible too :] I'll keep u guys updated
Hi Nailyouh,
Thank you very much for doing this!
Maybe this may help: As paul_ro21 mentioned, a working AOSP rom, which was most probably developed by Xiaomi is available on the miui forums. I have it on my mi pad 2 as well and it's working fine. I am looking forward to a CM rom for this tablet and I will be happy to help with testing!
Sincerely
dspati

Im too tired with stupid MIUI on this awesome tablet :
Stupid ram management, it has 2gb ram but it cannot run multi-tasking !
Im facing a big Problem i was not aware about..the Kernel of the MiPad2 is not open source so we are pretty f**ed by xiaomi. In fact the Kernel source has to be released but xiaomi don't care about Copyright infringements. I regret the decision buying this Tab. I like the Dualboot thingy and the aosp Rom runs smooth as butter but without the source we'll stuck on 5.1.1. really sad if you ask me, the Tablet is really beautyful and I love the outstanding Display. I'll try to figure around with the kernel from the aosp Rom next week I'll keep u informend and will make a thread if I suceed.
Cheers

Kernel source is now out on github. Any thoughts about it?
Its been more than a month since the kernel source for MIPAD has been released.Have been closely following xda and MIUI forums ,but haven't seen any development work being posted in any of them.
Do we have development work going on for MI PAD??
Last i heard was there was some issue with vendor blob , which was preventing an android upgrade.
Has that problem been solved?also i heard that for many devices emulation or wrapping is used when vendor blobs are not available...
Please let us know for development work so that we can also be able to contribute for the betterment of our device

I understand that,I am trying to develop from my side as well.
Highwaystar_ru has done great work in implementing CM 12.1 for mipad.Its in the beta mode but usable,its has some issues such as micro lags,camera,No sounds in certain apps such as go to meetings,Skype etc.
Just wish someone works on the kernel from source as the current CM 12.1 uses stock smoke kernel
Lenovo is the only company to have released an Android Nougat update for an Intel Atom Cherry Trail SoC powered device.
If Lenovo releases the kernel sources for the Android N version created for its Lenovo Yoga Book (Lenovo YB1-X90F/L), developers can start working on Android N upgrades for other devices powered by the Intel Atom Cherry Trail SoCs.
Lenovo has previously released the Android Marshmallow kernel sources for the Yoga Book (https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/us/en/products/tablets/yoga-series/yoga-book/downloads/ds118515 Thus it shouldn't be a problem abiding by the General Public License v2 (GPLv2), which requires Android device makers to publish the kernel source code.
Please consider signing here: https://www.change.org/p/lenovo-kernel-sources-for-lenovo-yoga-book-android-n-7-1-1 . Thank you
True, we really Need to make Lenovo release the source Code, i hope you could edit your Petition by adding that also we Need Infos about how to use the source Code.
Greetings
I'm not sure that it would make a difference, but has anyone tried posting on their support forums or contacting them directly?
It might help our case to note that the device (the Android version, anyway) has been discontinued. I doubt we'll see any further official updates from Lenovo.
Take a look , Hope this will work for you:

Only via Facebook. Got this answer:
"Thanks for reaching out. Currently, this the only open source http://lnv.gy/2DMoObI we have for Yoga Book. You can keep an eye on the support website as it will be updated if a new open source will be released. Let us know if you have other inquiries."
Feel free to post the link to the petition on the Lenovo forums or even ask them via Facebook/scoial media. The more attention, the greater the chances.

This build is a ONE-OFF and you should look at the original thread by @Krizthian for possible future builds. https://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/development/rom-crdroid-v4-0-google-nexus-5-t3767591

Of course, thanks to the crDroid team for providing the ROM source itself; and making it so easy to build using LineageOS device trees.:good:
Changes from the default source:
Code:
[FONT="Verdana"] Added the MiXplorer [url]https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523691[/url]
I got the OK first too include in my unofficial ROMs that I build, visit the forum, they are very helpful for this VERY powerful file explorer. [url]https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1523691[/url]
You can thank @HootanParsa for building it, and letting me include it:good: Be sure to share some thanks.
Switched over to the ResurrectionRemox launcher. I had issues with the default launcher in crDroid. Also on another device, and I think I have read some other users had the same on even more devices.
Vinyl Music Player and removed crDroid music.
It has more features but is based off the same original app in crDroid. Including a dark theme!
Just to be polite I checked with the dev to get his ok, even though its open source. It can also be fund on F-Droid
OmniClock replaces the standard deskclock. Sourced from OmniROM, so a big thanks to them. It has a nicer dark skinn also.

I have only done a rudimentary test on it. I flashed PICO Gapps, and there aint much room left in the system partition.

That'd be quite the display if you could get that to work, assuming that is still your daily device. I have an N5 spare as well, but the WiFi chip broke : (

Cast your mind back. My Razr is dead! Upgrading the kernel (and the device tree) is a big task. We were very lucky for Nougat, as the XT897 was pretty damn close and it had an official LOS build. ie the device tree and kernel were basically ready to kang. As far as I know, there is no official Oreo for the xt897 and therefore, unless you spend the time and effort, there is no Oreo for the xt907/xt905/xt926 etc etc.
For now I use and build for an GT-i9506 as my daily, and I also have an N5 as a "spare", which is half dead (mic is flakey which makes a phonee useless). I build for the N5 as "practice" for the S4, and I shared the results here, as I saw the current builds were quite old; [sarcasm]and I'm such a nice guy[/sarcasm]
