[February update] Xiaomi MI A1 date - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Anyone has info about February updates of xiaomi MI A1 ?
It's nearly end of month.
Still waiting for update

Or it'll be integrated in March's update?

Ever seen any users requesting/whining Apple & Microsoft for monthly update? I'm glad that A1 a budget phone will get monthly update compare to some other flagship phones ... Is/are there any major issue that ur phone not functioning normal atm - e.g Google Pixel battery drained badly after feb update???

I wanted to give Android a try, after my iPhone 8 broke, but even with this Android one, Google and Android manufacturers are still a joke. I got the January update after the 25th, my battery life got destroyed.
Communication regarding the updates and change notes is extremely bad as well, there's no official Xiaomi press release about any of the issues our device is experiencing.

Due to Chinese New Year, updates might be delayed by a few weeks

Don't make this forum like miui official forum. We don't need threads like this.

there are dozens of forums with countless threads regarding each windows patch, its changelog, hidden analytics etc etc. If you haven't seen something that doesn't mean it don't exist.

Thread closed.
There's already a thread about the same topic here https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/february-update-t3743872

So, is Huawei lying about the updates?

Still nothing on my Honor 7...
Did anyone get the official update? I thought that they would not delay updates, since they want to become a top brand.... but seems that they disappoint users...

It's going to be another month before official update comes by the sounds of the latest update on Twitter.....
Total shambles. Android N will be out by then....
Hah got MM in early december
Hauwei can take all the time they need to get it right before the MM release, in no rush here.
So in terms of reliably giving us updates there is no change for Huawei since 2 years ago

To be honest it's no difference from most mobile manufacturers. Even Motorola took their time when Lollipop came out, and they are known for (supposedly) releasing updates quickly.
Would you rather Huawei took their time making sure that an update is as bug free as possible, or rush it out with problems? (They have stated there was a major issue with the beta release on one of their twitter feeds).
don't expect much from a china company.
guys, honestly, how can you be disappointed in huawei for the the way they have handled updates rollout so far?? with plk-l01 we had 8 official updates, b180 runs pretty smooth and we are only a few weeks away from mm.
if they need more time checking for bugs and fixing issues, so be it!
bear in mind that they aren't using a proprietary OS, so setbacks and delays are part of the deal.
don't forget only MS and Apple can produce a 100% sure timeline for updates, their phones are running on proprietary OS, and if they couldn't keep their promises about updates i would definitely be mad at them, but you can't blame huawei for wanting to release stable updates instead of bugged ones.
after all, you could always turn to Nexus if you wanted to have an android smartphone with weekly updates
Nowadays nobody has the great virtue called "patience".
I just don't understand people who live in a world where there biggest worry is the Antutu score and having the latest update sooner than anyone...
Really, I'm still on B170 have no notification problems and no battery drain whatsoever. I am so pleased with my actual experience with the Honor 7 PLK-01 that I have no need for updating now. The only reason I would hit the update button is for a very important security risk.
You talk about patience and give honor a break ect but they are the ones saying it was going to be released last month. They created this problem. They should not lie. They should be more professional instead of giving an impression they have not got a clue what they are doing anymore.
But hey ho go and flash B320 MM it is a good update and I've been running it for a while.
Huawei haven't lied. This is software development where you have a timescale, and if an issue is found that needs more time to resolve, then it needs more time. Good to see they are taking time to get MM right before release.
Anyone wanting permanent updates (weekly) can switch to Xiaomi. THEN you´ll see bug and stability complains.
But hey, they have weekly updates that sometimes fix something and creates other problems. Also updates for useless features that the vast majority of their forum users (customers) regards as so.
Talking bout QA and listening to users feedback...

Xiaomi has 2 kind of updates, beta weekly and stable monthly. New features are somethimes useless, but others are a miracle,like permissions that are part Of xiaomi rom from 3 years,and google put them on android in M release... I have huawei and i think it's a good company also for the update process of this terminal, but it is impossible to make a perfect policy, and make all people happy. Even google with nexus line does not nake happy everyone, so

Stable monthly are not that stable and misses features the hardware supports. Been there among complainers for some years.
This is my third Huawei, so I think these phones are really good value. Even i bought one when people didn't even know the brand. BUT if they want to be a top brand somethings should be fixed, and one of them is to give proper deadlines for updates... usually you don't own a phone that long in order to wait manufacturers... This was one of the worst things of Microsoft last year, when we were waiting to release Windows mobile 10, and they lost a lot of customers, including myself.
I just hope they will fix some normal issues, for example: get notifications without power management stopping everything..

Any news on when we getting Oreo?

What the tittle says
Yes there is, we'll get it in 2 months period.
Any ideas why so long? Sony already got it and they are skinned as well as others are close behind like Samsung with their beta tests and htc why is this one taking so long to push since it is almost pure?

Sony have a much bigger dev team, plus sony has a large community of devs and testers that work for free since they release all their code to open source.
But is this not like the purest of Android ... On paper it should be just plug test and play for the A1?
In principle, yes. But I going by the apparent fact that Google isn't in charge of software but xiaomi is, my guess is that is the reason why there is no oreo yet...
I presume. I've heard good things for this company let's see how this phone will hold up to what people say
I think that the Andorid One topic is quite new for them (too) and they just have to collect their experience first so I'm pretty sure for the following updates they will get more and more routine so this is just the beginning....
With Android One, doesn't Google control the OS updates like in Pixel. We get security fixes along with Pixel
Android one suppose to be the first device after pixel and nexus to get Oreo.
Devices are getting beta version or something of Oreo.
And we are just waiting ,
Don't want to rush anything but atleast a official comment on the Oreo for android one would be grate...
They says by the end of this year,its mean December,calm down
I have a friend working in Mi China and he says their Target is indeed for December 2017. So let's just all chill out till then.
From what I guess Google isn't really controlling the updates of mi a1. STOCK android doesn't support capacitive nav bars and a IR sensor too. Moreover there are dual cameras on this phone. So mi has to so tweaks to accommodate all this. That's why it must be taking some time.

There is nothing like this. Android one is a program which ensures every updates not faster updates. So keep calm. They will release it by 31st Dec.
The update chain is not that what u r thinking right now.
Google - Processor manufacturers - OEMs - Beta testers - OEM - Public Release.
As far as what I've seen and heard on mi community discussions some guy had posted a pic of his discussion with one of the representatives from Xiaomi. It said that they werent sure on when they are going to release the update as they haven't finalized the date yet. They said that it could be in late january 2018

If a random representative said that, must be true
I would give them 2-3 days more before I start having my doubts . They've said by end of December ..so no point rushing unless . Just hope there aren't any major bugs in the beta

The problem is the heavily doctored version of android that Xiaomi have included with this device and the inbuilt spyware.
Still no Oreo
Still no Kernel.
Not pure/stock Android.
THE TIME FOR ACTION IS NOW. - we should not stand for this any longer.

Looking to buy this device, can you tell me the spyware you have come across.
So someone asked on Twitter about Oreo update and Xiaomi says "Its coming really soon!"

Will Mi A1 get android Q

It is sure that tissot will get Android P by end of 2k18. I am curious whether it will be lucky enough to get Q update being an Android one phone(software support is for three OS versions).
No, flash custom ROM and be happy.
We cannot tell for sure. Let's start the petition NOW and make it happen ?
No it wont.

First of all, Android Q will NEVER BUT EVER be released in May 2019. At the very best may be announced and some selected devices be granted with a developer preview (obviously Pixel devices). The final release to the public will yes, probably be in October 2019, but once again firstly for Pixels and then other high range phones. There is no way that Xiaomi will release Q on the fly right on October, and much less for our A1, when they have the A2 and (probably) an A3 by that date.

Since we have treble support(Unofficially)we can get developer preview once its released to pixel devices!
I flashed Custom ROM (Android Pie, LR) and using it as daily driver. Android P for Mi A1 officially is still a long way to go.
This is a catastrophic knowledge. While others are thinking about Android Q, we are not sure if we are going to get Android P.
really shame and injustice.

android p is confirmed for A1 -_-
I just want stock ROM to support the recording of videos at 30 FPS in low light conditions, without any mod or something like that. only that.
I would not mind when they release android P if not for that reason.

Where is the evidence of this?
Do you have any?
Why do you ask such things, if your statements aren't even well documented?
Have you seen any info from Xiaomi team about rethinking their decision about keeping MiA1 "un-trebled", switching their ideas just to take the funny P, carrying with all the process of repartitioning each device's drives, all inside of an update pack, with free support? → no matter which risks people would suffer if something just goes wrong with such update.
Xiaomi won't be riding such horse, when it is already running away.
In resume...
Mi A1 with Q, thanks to unofficial Treble process? Possible.
Mi A1 with P, thanks to official Xiaomi update? Keep dreaming.

Sources: Google guarantees two years of major software updates and three years of security updates. That's what Android One is. You can also see that everywhere.

Keep dreaming.
You said Google, I said Xiaomi.
Is there something Google would do to force Xiaomi to revert what they did just to get a P label?

Let me explain it another way :
When someone (in this case Xiaomi) is under a contract (think of the Android One Program as a contract), they (Xiaomi)
are by definition forced to obey some rules (2 years of major Software updates, and 3 years of security updates) set by the other party of the contract,
which in this case is Google. When you buy a device branded as an Android one device, then you are guaranteed those things, and that is why you got
the Android one device in the first place. For those reasons the Xiaomi Mi 5X IS NOT GUARANTEED ANY OF THE ABOVE since it is not an Android one device, despite being literally
the same device hardware-wise, it could never get Android P officially, and Xiaomi could stop providing security updates at any point.
EDIT: ALSO THIS ONE
Stay fresh over time
Mi A1 ships with Android Nougat, and will receive 2 years minimum of OS upgrades. And since Android One users are among the first to get new OS upgrades when they’re released, you’ll have access to the latest features and innovations even sooner.

Nokia 6.1 got pie, no update for A2 a more premiere phone

We know we will get it by year max as per expectations, but no beta yet... So does anyone has any update on this
What can we do except waiting! -_-
Company is focusing on pocco f1, mi 8se, both received beta..... This one is android one phone and not even beta by now..... I bought this device for early updates and one program only.

How come the Mi A2 is a failure if it's one of the best selling Xiaomi phones on Aliexpress and other markets?
If you don't like it, sell it and buy a new phone, it is that simple, no need to be a martyr.
If you want custom roms, how about you develop it yourself instead of complaning that no one took their free time and knolowedge to make you free roms? I can only speak for myself, as I have no desire in developing for such an arrogant and whiny user base as of the Mi A2's. Or I can develop a Pie AOSP rom and charge for it, how about that?
Android One responsibility are complicated..
So far away for pie
Just talk about some bug on current 8.1 rom (like slow emmc read/write speed, unresponsive proximity sensor n etc) and some miss faeture and support like arcore, camera2api, tap2wake...
Im sure they work on it but not fast like miui
To be honest mi a2 are overshadowed by redmi note 5/pro, and poco f1, so this phone not much attracted/interesting for some community developer...

its a big mistake to buy this mi a2 with this very little battery, horrible suport, a lot of bugs, a new 1401 clock bug, no pie, no twrp, no suport, this is the worst phone i ever buyed, now i will sell this, i cant handle this feilure phone
I'd rather have a smooth and bug free phone than a rushed update. I mean, both the A2 and A2 Lite are full of bugs. Nokia is working with only Android One phones, while Xiaomi have so many to work on. They are slow anyway.
Guys, my topic says its a premium phone and don't have any problem with it. Getting superb screen on time, pics, android one, fast charging and dont need much.
But just curious about pie update as even nokia 6.1 got it... Don't be upset with it. If anyone knows can tell otherwise its ok

pie got new gesture based navbar and legacy navbar tho (same with recent apps. pie got both new vertical and legacy horizontal one)
Pie update is in testing, Xiaomi sells far more A2 than all Nokia combined, so the extra care, whatever pie update should come in few days with November update.
Sent from my Xiaomi Mi A2 using XDA Labs
The main reason why I bought the phone was Android One. I expected to receive updates as early as possible just like the damn website on Android One is saying.
Until now, Xiaomi is a big f*cking disappointment because of bugs, CPU frequency lock (I have a phone that can't be used with Fingerprint and those morons at Xiaomi don't even want to acknowledge that), slow updates, no camera2api enabled by default (I had to erase the phone!), TWRP etc.
This is by no way a premier/premium phone. The Galaxy A5 2016 I had for two years was way better because it felt and ran like wind.

No, I'm very confident, also its Xiaomi goal to announce it before Xmas sales season begins to push A2 sales yet not as good as the A1's.
Besides Android Pie goodies, another improvement is to include Bluetooth LDAC support, and maybe improvements on camera.
We received the November security patch now, so i think we will be receiving pie in December only..... Thanks for your reply

too early this update, likely to see another update this month, this one very big with Pie.

Did everyone got the pie update? Still nothing for me.

As the title says. Except for different launchers i haven't modified the rom or network in any way, and the last update is November 2018.
Same here!
Maybe we even get a better more recent version ...

I'm on official pie, and haven't faced any bugs besides a bit of battery drain and and little animation glitches. Everything is all Gucci.
I will go abroad on holidays and considering that I have an EFS backup so I can downgrade without any problem, I think that i'll go back to Oreo.
I need that battery lasts longer and a good signal reception that now is very bad (other than the LTE issue that I solved my self)
Every time I do the same mistake, accepting the update immediately without waiting for others users feedback, and this time Xiaomi did a disaster.
However I think that Pie will be last major release for Mi A1, they learned that more recent is the Android version and more difficult is to make it supporting older platforms, and SD625 is actually an old platform.
So yes, the update was luckily pulled down but the disaster is done. I hope they will found a fix for everything they messed up.

It surely is.
Android One is supposed to get two years of support, and Mi A1 was released in spring 2017, so...
625 is not the problem, also MI A2 Lite is on the same SoC but it will receive Android Q for sure.
