It is very excited ..but this os is not based on android os...so i think it will most fevers for developer not daily user...

So I bought the redmi9 because..
The apps I run stated the would no-longer support android 6 in the next update
If
HarmonyOs gets:
Longtime support (security updates)
Has USB DAC support
Runs the apps I need
Then I'm all in...for harmonyOs
update..
I just watched HarmonyOs 2 beta review on YouTube..
It seems...its Just android 10 based

Wow,Miui is not the best but good but Emui is worst and both together,oh f...ck...g no,please.Cheers!!!

It's not Android 10 based, that is EMUI 10 and 11. The UI seems quite like Android because it is meant to be comfortable for people coming from Android. The Kernel however, is like Linux but is a microkernel and can run on any device from like a few kilobytes of ram to like a lot of ram like computers

because harmony os is not based on android, maybe xiaomi won't do that, because maybe they can lose a lot of users, but i'm personally interested in trying, but not being a daily driver.

Windows 10 for Mi3? Discussion Thread

I think everyone heard about the biggest news today that Microsoft is working together with Xiaomi and will be bringing Windows 10.0 for phone on Mi4. Since Mi4 is sharing with Mi3 on sources, same cancro. Do you think Mi3 will have a fully working Windows and run dual boot between MIUI and Windows 10 officially? What do you think?

Yes sir..I sure do..
WOAH!!!
I am quite surprised by seeing this.
That is one of the best things I have heard from XIAOMI lately..
Hope it turns out to be true.
This is officially true for Mi4. But not certain for Mi3. No words but since we know this device is almost in common we can expect it will work as well.

ya mi3 might as every time Ivan releases a port it works on both mi3 and mi4 so windows 10 should work on mi3(may require some tweaks) if its working on mi4
Interesting project.
Uhm ...
I hope that this is not the meaning of "Redefining Android" ...
count me in too
i also want this ported to out device. i can also do the beta testing for it.
This won't be our typical boot.img for devices out there I recon.But still let's wait and swe
Though both phones use same ROM, but there is a difference like IR blaster options in Mi 4 and NFC in MI 3, these options get automatically applied to specific device, similarly the device name.. I believe if Microsoft wishes they can make it specific for MI4 only..

Just to be clear, Xiaomi and MS are not working together. MS is testing Windows on MI4 and several other phones(ZTE model). So i guess there wont be any problem installing Windows 10 on MI3, But ofcause it may take more time.
Sharing kernel does not mean anything because windows won't use linux/Android kernel.
It would be great to have windows 10 on my mi3. I am using the technical preview on my pc
microsoft testing windows 10 on mi4, hope mi3 can use windows 10 too
It will be awesome!
Does someone know if there are any available WIN 10 ROM to test?

This one is a tech preview of Win10
Btw compressed package also required a password, which is leaked to bete tester only. :/
Is this rom compatible with mi3...?
Windows 10
Yes the zip needs password to extract. And is this for mi4 global or Mi4td

1. Posting in the android themes section isn't going to get your question answered.
Post about this in your device section or android questions and answers.
2. Use Google.
There are NO CUSTOM ROMS for your device
There are no developers active, the device has no support and cannot update due to its bad firmware that doesn't allow the bootloader to be unlocked, so it cannot even run a custom ROM.....
3. Did you not check the android version before purchasing? Thats just stupid.
This device is from 2016........no one should be buying 2016 hardware or a device with an android version which is over 4 years old in 2018.
For less than half the price you paid for that cool pad you could have got a Nokia 2.1 or Nokia 1 both are running android 8.1 or can install a project treble android P GSI - both those devices are project treble compatible!
Here's some interesting information....
Your purchase cannot be justified from the device specs, the current budget Nokia range use android GO and have been proven to perform much better and faster with much less powerful CPUs and far less ram that a more expensive multi core CPU device with 2 to 6 GB ......
These devices perform 15% faster and only use a small portion of on device storage.
As for your cool pad, You are stuck on lollipop I'm afraid.
Look at the price comparison of the cool pad A8 and the Nokia 1 with android 8.1 Go.
If you want the "latest" android version you always need to buy a device that has it, not buy a far more expensive one that has an android version that will no longer be supported in the next few months.
FYI - Google are going to make android 6.0 marshmallow a minimum requirement to run their apps early next year, and then are going to make android 7.0 nougat a minimum requirement to run their apps by the fall of 2019.

Am I safe installing the Android Q beta 3 GSI on my MI 8 Lite? Will the Camera work?

Hey everyone!
I really love the new android q beta and i was wondering if it is possible to install it on my mi 8 lite?
On android developers it says, that it's necesarry for the phone to be launched with android p (mi 8 lite wasn't):
https://developer.android.com/preview/gsi-release-notes
Is it okay if I have my phone updated to android p or that is not the same?
If I install this GSI, will my camera work (it is quite important for me)?
I am not really good in this tipic nor do I know much about it, but I have installed many roms before.
Thanks

It wouldn't have the miui camera since it's not a miui release so you might have to install gcam. But the only way to answer your question is do a backup and flash it and see .
The linked images are for ab devices and ours (mi8lite) is an a device. AB devices basically have 2 system partitions and A devices only have one. So it won't work for us.

This link for download to Android Q GSI, for A/B partition or only A partition:
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/gsi/
So is. Android Q is a long time ago for A.
The only one that starts the beta 2 of the Q in the mi 8 lite.
Sorry for the sincerity, but the such project treble A beautiful piece of crap has left. So far I do not know where they got the idea that this would be useful ... Even for devices with A / B participation there is no stable work, all bugged.

Android 10 for Mi 8 Lite

Do you think Xiaomi updated the Mi 8 Lite to the recently released version of Android 10?
Will someone give development to customs roms of Android 10 for the Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite?
Hold your jets pal. We dont even have a rock solid Pixel Experience on Pie.
My advice. Go test the latest builds, use the phone, report back and then maybe we will have Android 10.
Eventhough not officially announced, it's almost guaranteed at this point Xiaomi will update it to Android 10. Usually it's 2 years of version updates and 3 years of security updates. The estimated release date is somewhere between Q4/2019 (Mi 8) and Q1/2020 (Redmi Note 7).
That beeing said, don't hold your breath on it. Kernel sources usually get available at a much later date. Until we have high quality, rock stable custom Android 10 ROMs, most likely another year will pass.
I'm optimistic about this. @nysadev even made a guide on how to install Android 10 GSIs on platina, so i think soon we'll have (not stable) custom roms
there will be an android 10 miui for mix 2s. miui 11 will come first as android 9 later it will update to android 10.

Apparently no one has new issues about what will happen with Android 10 in the Mi 8 Lite, in the same way my cell phone was stolen and I'm not interested much because It makes no sense to remain interested in something that I no longer have :/

POCO F1 pixel exp update from Android 9

Hi Team, I was living under a rock and have been on android 9 for last 2 years now wanted to upgrade to Android 11.
Is it possible to skip android 10?
I have update the TWRP to latest version any other things to mind, I would still wanna remain with pixel exp +
Thanks for the help.
Updated**
Hi, it depends on which device you have. As you know Android does not support updates very long for certain devices. So, first check if your device still can receive updates from Android and if not, see if you can update to Android 10, which is much better than 9. Kind regards kuzibri

I am using Poco F1. No official updates and I dont like miui. Please advise if I can flash android 11 on top of android 9? Same rom pixel exp
I think yes, you can flash directly the latest PE. See HERE and HERE. Clean flash, with formatting (not only wiping) several partitions is a must.
