I read that we're stuck with marshmallow on official miui. Is there a chance we that we get a custom MIUI rom that is on nougat? I'm not really a fan of aosp based roms for our device since they are buggy for me. No offense to the devs. So far MIUI based roms are the ones that performed the best for me. Best call quality(note I live in US so ymmv.) And multirom with muh 2gb free ram lol. Anyway, the only think that I am lacking on MIUI roms is vulkan api.
So it would really be nice to have a nougat based miui on our phone. :laugh:
Its not gonna happen most probably.
Redmi devices only get one major android update i think.
Multirom uses wrong calculation to display more free ram ( ram is to be used anyway).
Call quality should be same on both
We will get but not anytime soon..
Nope. Redmi line gets only one OS update, which was Marshmallow. RN3 was released with Lollipop. No more OS updates.
What about KATE?
it was released with MM.

Probably not, because it was special edition, but if it will it will work on kenzo too

I just ordered a Le Max 2 a few days ago and it should arrive soon. Since EUI is obviously crap with all the nonremovable chinese stuff, which ROM would you recommend for gaming?
Most people obviously bought this phone for this performance at a cheap price, so I am wondering which ROM to go for.
Android 7 Nougat is not a must, considering Marshmallow even performs better in benchmarks (according to the ones I saw).
What I am looking for:
- stability
- performance in gaming
- up to date drivers
I will mainly be using the phone for android games and emulators, so if a certain ROM is conflicting with some emulators, then that is a no-go for me.
I see MIUI has also been ported to Le Max 2, been using it for years first on my Umi Zero, then Xiaomi Redmi 3 so I must say I am kinda bored of it already, but it is good, I might use it again.
Install latest version ResuerectionRemix 7.1.2. MIUI8 on Lecco le Max 2 works badly.

Are there currently any known issues with RR or is it fully working and compatible?
The Indian ROM works just fine and doesn't contain a lot of Chinese crap. Also it's 100% functional unlike RR/LOS.
Heyyo, best for gaming and stability would be LineageOS 14.1 and flash OpenGapps Pico and then flash my Vulkan Driver mod.
LOS
https://download.lineageos.org/x2
OpenGapps
http://opengapps.org
Vulkan driver mod
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/development/mod-adreno-5xx-series-s7-sd820-build-t3617644
LOS 14.1 is stable and everything works good.
OpenGapps Pico because anything larger is bloated and can slow down the device or even cause accelerated battery drain. Just install the Google apps you want instead of having all kinds of stuff with stock like Google fit and such
Vulkan driver mod because Vulkan makes gaming faster. There is some Nougat ROMs that include Vulkan drivers from Pixel devices but they are only API version 1.0.20 where as the drivers in my mod are 1.0.30. My Vulkan driver mod also tricks the play store into thinking you have a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge so it'll allow you to install more Vulkan enabled games like Galaxy On Fire 3 Manticore or Vainglory Vulkan beta. My thread has my test results with all the currently available Vulkan games for Android.
@ThE_MarD Who is maintainer of LOS now?
Heyyo @Enzo_84 the maintainers are tortel, andr68rus and cr3pt is what the wiki says

How come that LineageOS works better than RR if basically the same person is maintaining it?

I thought that cr3pt stop develop after it start to be official, but thx 4 replay.
Check LOS again and now I have best signal on it compering to other castom roms.

Heyyo, for that? RR has a lot more experimental changes. The thread asked for stability and performance and LOS I'd compare more to Ubuntu short term service builds and RR would be more like Arch Linux if that makes sense.

That's what the wiki says and I've seen cr3pt post in the LOS thread so he's definitely still around which is great. Same with Tortel too.
LOS 14.1 is darn good for a stable as possible ROM. I keep it as my primary and then use MultiROM to test other Nougat ROMs as changes are made so I always have LOS as a fallback if another ROM craps out on me heh.
I see, so LOS is the way to go then for now until RR bugs get resolved.
Pure Nexus with BS Kernel isnt that bad, too. Got even FP working finally
Who said MIUI Rom work is not good, I have a production based on EUI ROM, it works well, you are using the MIUI producer produced ROM BATE version, I am a stable version, only based on EUI produced ROM is the best use, the problem is the least
Phone arrives tomorrow. I'll do some benchmarking as soon as I get it, if they are decent, I'll just keep stock rom.
Does someone have benchmarks for each of the mentioned roms?
hello guys i tried playing god of war ghost of sparta with ppsspp emulator and PUBG but they lag very much i was so dissappointed and i found that the EUI official rom is limiting the cpu and gpu performance and i rooted the phone and installed kernal auditor and boosted the cpu over 1.5ghz myself and played it is much more fasted so please suggest me a best rom that does not limit cpu and gpu for my LE MAX 2 device its best performance device but the performance is always limiting
I don't suppose, there is OFFICIAL Lineage OS 15 ROM coming for Kenzo, is it?
As awesome and powerful this device is, i think our device is not going to have much development further ahead.
As we are struggling to get oreo working properly. And due to being 2 gen behind Android updates, performance also not holding up due to being too behind till 6.0.
As antutu scores are also very low in oreo roms.
I Know this is xiaomi's fault for not giving providing enough sources etc for devs to build stable ROMs.
Ps. Thanks to all the devs who are working and giving there full efforts and ask for nothing in return. Thank you for your supports and efforts.
Thank you :highfive:
NOS 8 Oreo scores 79000k on Antutu
Hi friends and dear developers..
I've been in this community since many years. I've been using Sony phones and then xiaomi phones.
> I've always seen that there are most kernels developed only for Cyanogen(now Lineage) based ROMs.
I accept that Lineage based ROMS are much much better in terms of performance and fluidity, and I love many roms out there.
But I always see xiaomi users get back to MIUI one day or another, since it has it own advantages, especially looks.
So my real query is, why don't we concentrate atleast a little on kernels for MIUI roms as well??
So friends, kindly share your views and suggestions, so that developers might take a look into this.
Love you all for your valuable time and knowledge. :good::highfive:

MIUI is outdated most of us using XDA only use custom ROMs,take me for an example I used MIUI in my redmi 3s only initial 3~5 months after that when I heard xioami won't upgrade redmi 3s to nougat ,I switched to custom ROM since then I never gone back to MIUI ,heck I even forgot I'm using xiaomi device.
There is bunch of up-to-date Oreo custom ROMs available for our device,as for MIUI it only stuck in Android marshmallow with April 2017 security patch which is one year old.so do u really think developers should care about MIUI?if normal users don't want to use MIUI ,then why should developers waste their time to create kernel,which nobody gonna use? Besides kernel development for our device is generally not that great compared to santoni and other redmi devices,so yeah this my opinion on this matter,if in future xiaomi decided to upgrade all devices to up-to-date Android(which I doubt),I'm sure developers will create more kernels for MIUI,even then custom ROMs will always dominate.
As for themes,since you're not new here,you at least heard about substratum theme engine/OMS give it a try,it's better than MIUI theming.
If you really want to stick to MIUI (official or custom Marshmallow based) you can use PerXepted kernel by Nichcream : https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-3s/development/kernel-perxepted-16-aug-t3657329
It is excellent.

Thank you for your detailed explanation. And i totally agree with you buddy.. Except the fact that there are end users who still love MIUI (even though android version isn't updated and yes it sucks very much)..
And yes I have used substratum theme engine, its really great though

Yeah bro I have used it already.. It haven't been updated since long... And I hope it won't be updated anymore....
Because like SMR96 bro said, miui isn't updated (in terms of android version or security patch). Hence developers won't take much interest in updating kernel for an outdated ROM

It has been updated in january 2018, this is not so bad. The real problem is due to MIUI security patch level, april 2017 is not acceptable.
But sadly, nobody tried to add new security patch to MIUI.
This is my first time installing a rom on a xiaomi, i already unlock bootloader and install TWRP.
I had consider installing Dot Os Rom but there are some comments that said that there is a slow charging issue. Right now im between Pixel Experience Rom and Lineage OS; does this ones have big bugs? i mean i want a daily driver rom . What are your recommendations? Or should i stay on miui?

In general you can say that Nougat is more stable than Oreo and has better battery life.
If you don't mind waiting till Monday and can live with a few bugs, go with LineageOS 15.1 Official (based on Oreo).
Currently I'm using LineageOS 14.1 Official. Bug free for me, stable, good battery life and updates every week.
The problem with most ROMs is actually that at some point the developer decides to drop support for a ROM and moves on the another ROM or phone. You are then left with a ROM with bugs and unfixed security holes.
That won't happen when using LineageOS official builds
Will we get android pie roms?

I'm very sad to see R5+ development is currently dead. I was hoping someone would build a Pixel Experience or any AOSP based ROM for our device but even the oreo roms are dead or finalized already. So i don't think people have anymore interest in R5+..

The real problem is lack of updated Oreo kernel sources (how much less Pie). This means, for example, that certain display panels (eg, ebbg) cannot be supported by custom ROMs (you might have to go back to Nougat kernels for that).
Why not write to Xiaomi to release up-to-date Oreo kernel sources for vince in the first instance? If enough people make a fuss, perhaps something will happen ...

Xiaomi however isn't listening their customers. A big example is ARB system which absolutely destroys devices. So i guess we are gonna stay dead until something shows up..
