Where is the Kernel Source? - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Okay. We can understand that 2017 isn't over yet and it is dec 2nd. They still have plenty of time to provide the Oreo Update (and I hope they will stick to their promise).
But where is the KERNEL SOURCE? It have been almost 3 month since the device have launched in India but still no news about the kernel.
Loving my A1 but this thing is frustrating.

Best ROM for non-techsavvy individual?

I passed down my Nexus 10 to my father a few months ago, and the current ROM has got some corruption and so I'd like to flash something else.
He's essentially not techsavvy at all. I'm just looking for something rather stable for the moment that's moderately up to date for security reasons.
Once LineageOS starts building snapshots for the Nexus 10 I'll regularly update that with OTAs.
Any suggestions?
If you are ging for security a nougat rom is the best since it has the january security Update. But if you need a fully working rom you should Go for marshmallow. In this case the Last cm Release is fine. But it has only the december security Update in it.

Any idea where official cm13 is hosted/archived? I'll take your suggestion and install the last stable build of it. Then update his tablet to lineage once their stable builds start.

Latest security patch is Jan 2017?

Security patches for both my stock Pro3 and S3, US versions, are woefully out of date.
Any update in the works? My old Note 4's are still getting them!
Latest Chinese 26s' security patch is still October 2016...

LeEco is going through tough times, and their US staff was affected. Vizio is demanding money, they sold their US HQ, etc. I don't think fast updates is a priority for them right now, especially if they're in debt.

The latest update for the US variant is 21s, which includes the January patch. If you want the July patch you'll have to use a custom ROM, because no one knows what the future holds for LeEco's US branch.

So a custom ROM would allow me to somehow manually patch a security update or the ROM developer releases updates which include the patch?
Custom rom has the latest security patch

official build for Potter (G5 Plus)

Hey guys! Some very talented developers have been working on unofficial releases for a while already, and I am unsure whether to go for their takes or wait until an Official version is released. Any predictions on when this might happen? Or should I just void my warranty and go for Vache's build? Thanks!!!
I might also like this. While Motorola says they will release Oreo for Potter, they seemingly haven't provided any timetable for that. I am a bit hesitant to install a LineageOS nightly on my daily driver, but I would love having the option, especially if it turns out that Motorola botches the Oreo upgrade.

I have been using Vache's/fAIyaZ 7.1.2 build for some days now. Only found one bug, Skype wouldn't manage to access the camera for video-chatting, but I found a solution for it (activating Camera 2 API from this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g5-plus/themes/potentially-google-camera-port-t3684264 ). Other than that, everything works perfectly (and a lot better than the Moto built-in tracking suite they ship the phone with).
Applying an unofficial fix to an unofficial port sounds a bit problematic. Do you think it would be possible for Vache/fAlyaZ to fix this in their port somehow? Or would it be more of a gapps thing? Or neither?
It seems so insane to me that there is no official LineageOS for Potter yet? I couldn't have even imagined that it wouldn't be released quickly when I bought the Moto G5 Plus - I though it is such a popular phone, so well reviewed for the price, able to be unlocked, etc. How can it no be better supported by the LineageOS team?
Sorry to necro this thread, but Oreo has now been officially released for Potter, after seemingly forever. What are the chances of getting an official 15.1 build for Potter any time soon?
I know Vache's unofficial build is much loved on here, and I think there's a 16.0 unofficial build I've seen flowing around as well, but some of us would rather go with an official build if one is available.
Don't mean to be a d*ck, but just follow the trending topics on the forum and you'll see where everyone has flocked to. At the moment I believe there's no need to program Lineage for Pie, when we have one extremely good AOSP based version online. Install the Pie version of the system that can be shot from a bow and never look back... Vache did a great job for as long as he did it, and a couple of other contributors too, so <3 thank you
now everyone seems to be somewhere else, that's how it goes
all the previous versions and knowledge gained from them kept being passed forward to ports from the next version of Android as well, so you'd have to look at Lineage Pie. Lineage16 seems to still be too raw for Potter, which means you likely won't see any official version soon. With Pie out, everyone's efforts turn to it, so you can see also that the 15.1 thread is pretty much dead.

BLU R1 HD Update V. 9.2

Hello, I just got the notification to update my Blu R1 HD, the version of the update is v 9.2.
Someone already updated? is stable?
Thank you
Yes it's stable, no changes except the April 2018 Android Security Updates.
I'm very surprised Blu is still sending out updates for this almost 2 year old device, that's better then some major brands!

Don't give them too much credit. They are just attempting to make up for the numerous security debacles that they had with most of their phones in 2016 and 2017. Plus the security update is from Google, not Blu.
Blu likely only pushed the update to stay on good terms with the FCC. Who recently put Bans on Huawei, and ZTE. Why else would they update a two yr old phone, when they cannot provide promised nougat updates for several phones.
They are not reputable, they published marketing literature, made claims on social media sites, and in interviews where they promised nougat updates for phones released in 2017 that came with Android 6.0
A year later no updates.
I understand that Miui 9 can be installed on this phone. If I can figure it out I will share the files here.
Will there be a modified version of 9.2 for people with rooted phones?
Thanks!

I guess I am not stock since I am rooted and running xposed and removed ads.
So am I correct that to apply this update I should re-flash your 9.0 full ROM and then run your updater script before installing su and xposed and running the commands to delete the ads?
Thanks!

Yes. Look at the last couple post on the modified stock romntjread. Confirmed installs of the patch from stock v9. They went the long way and "de-bloated, un-rooted, etc".
Re flash v9 then the patch should be fine.
8 still need to edit the first post over on that thread to add this patch.

I guess it's rather Amazon than Blu, since there are no updates for the retail ("non-prime") version...

You can buy a LeEco S3 for $89 it has 3gb ram,Snapdragon 652 ( 8 core processor) 32gb hard drive, 1080*1920 resolution, 3000mah battery and about 30 working custom Roms. We have 4 leecos in our house 2 LePro 3s and 2 Se3s.
I just sold one of my Blu R1s for $50, almost pays for an SE3. Blu should embrace the developing community and release the source code to these phones, imagine the respect they would get.

Hi, I don't know how to update my stock R1 HD, I had only updated it from the same cell phone to version 8.4 but it only indicates that there are no more updates available, how then can I put this version 9.2? thanks
