Android Oreo for mi pad? - Xiaomi Mi Pad Questions & Answers

I'm not sure that will mi pad get android Oreo unofficial though it's capable of running smoothly and google has already given the source code so let's hope to get it on our beast. Support this thread and hopefully the developers would read and help us. ?

Like your enthusiasm. But first let us get a proper build of Android N. I am sure once we get everything going for N, developers will shift their attention to O as I believe our hardware is plenty capable to run the OS.

I don't think android n stable?
The UI of android n is glitchy and some laggyness is there. ?

lol the android N in our tab is still on beta stage, don't hope for an android O.
this kind of thread shouldn't make at first place though

Developers are working with shield kernel once that is finished you can hope for Oreo

So I guess everyone knows about the AOSP ROM 4.4.4 for MI3 By IVAN. The news is IVAN is working on the Build Project For Android 5.0 in Mi3.
Ivan already made a rom for MI 2 /2s.

On offical side miui forum there a lots of stupid threads like "Do you want a stable version of miui 6??":cyclops:
so it's nothing in front of this .
why stupid? we can share here in this thread all the lollipop related coming news and keep the other thread only for aosp related info. i think this is useful to keep things clean and separated...
maybe OP should just edit the title to "lollipop for mi3 discussion thread" or similar
Ivan's Android 5.0 Lollipop for Mi3 W / Mi4 CONFIRMED
It seems Ivan (the Xiaomi Dev who releases AOSP ROMs built with official kernel sources for Xiaomi devices) is already working on a Lollipop build for the Mi3/Mi4.
Even though the pic clearly shows a Mi3 WCDMA (i.e. the International variant), thing is, the Mi3 and Mi4 share similar systems. So similar, in fact, that their ROMs are cross-compatible!!
Hence the Mi4 is also DEFINITELY getting an AOSP build from Ivan.
I'll make sure I keep this thread (and my Mi3W) updated.

Please don't compare MIUI forums and XDA .
XDA has its own standard .
This place is not meant for random threads like it is in MI forums .
Though I am not against the OP. Its good keep both kitkat and lollipop separated as there will be confusions.

i hope you are right.. but that wouldn't explain why mi2 had priority respect mi3.. the normal thing would have been to work on mi3 first, and then, eventually, on mi2..... i think?

I believe Mi2's kernel is available for public. but not for Mi3.
I believe that could be a valid reason also that could be the reason why Xiaomi restricted (if at all true) Ivan from releasing it.
there's a thread at the miui board about the 5.0 rom which was started by a moderator. i highly doubt that ivan is banned/restricted from releasing the rom. the 4.4 kitkat rom is kind of a semi-official release, this will be the case with the lollipop, too, i guess. it's just that mi2 was first this time. to be honest, i don't really care about the release date as long as we get a working rom. i never put any pressure on developers, i accept that it will be released when it's ready. in the meantime, i'm happy to use the 4.4 aosp stuff.
waiting time is not frustrating. xiaomi not releasing kernel sources despite numerous promises, that is frustrating.
MI3 TD got lollipop!!:angel:
xiaobai from the Chinese Geek Forum did it.
waiting for MI3W.

Custom ROM Progress/Collaboration?

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.

Cyanogenmod ROM mipad 2

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

Nougat Update

Has anyone seen or heard of any working nougat roms for the honor 5x
You know, Android 6/6.0.1 is stil in Beta? I think we should finised this version before we start with Android 7.
But if anyone will start with Android 7for Honor 5x i would love it
Once one is released I'm sure it will have it's own thread. I doubt anyone would be using a 7.0 ROM and keep it a secret from everyone.
I don't see the need for 7.0, I mean, it's just going to boot slower. Some people just like higher numbers I guess.
This thread should be in the Q&A forum. Maybe a mod can move it.

Resurrection Remix AOSP MM ROM for A5 2017

I'm looking into the possibility of getting Resurrection Remix Marshmallow AOSP ROM running on the Galaxy A5 2017 device of Model Number(s):
A520F (Single SIM Variant)
A520F/DS (Dual SIM Variant)
I've made time available on my hands as i'm a fan of the ROM and it would be great running it up and functional on this device.
I'm hoping this post increases popularity as to attract experienced developers so i can get all the help i need since building an AOSP ROM such as Resurrection Remix from sctrach is very challenging and time consuming.
The Official A5 2017 AOSP (Devs Only) Whatsapp Group is available for all of the developers who would like to join it in helping me bring this Project to life. If your interested in joining and helping, simply post down below your intention in doing so along with your International Contact Number.
Btw here's the Resurrection OS Marshmallow Source:
https://github.com/ResurrectionRemix/platform_manifest/blob/marshmallow/README.mkdn
And here's our device's kernel source which was released by Samsung:
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=A520F
I wanna too, for A3 2017
Wasn't there something on the Whatsapp group about collecting donations for an experienced dev to buy this phone so he could port the rom? I would love to see Resurrection Remix on my A520W. Maybe if a post was made on the forum about donating, more people would see it.
I think that it's will be never possible ,because "Exynox" cpu (drivers problems.....like others devices,like some galaxy note...) ...
But it was truth in the past ....and maybe i was wrong now ,i don't know the last development ...

Ha ok ,good new for source .:good:
And yes...pity...samsung (exept "s" series) is less and less interested ...
In the past i loved customs roms but now it's maybe good for low and some middle devices but i think that it's a good "regression" ,we loose some good stock options and functiins (like finger print...etc...)... don't have the full exploitation of photo ...less performance.....etc...(samsung stock patent !!!) But yes....with some customs we can change the size,position and color of the hour,battery...etc...lol ! And cm/lineage sourced is not as "stable" as stock firmware ...
Lineage OS in on the horizon. Maybe this will help inspire other developers to take up the Resurrection Remix project or develop their own custom ROMs. But good things are coming in the future.
