I guess I have a Mi 5x with A1 rom - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

i'm not that dude that does flashes and stuff, i just use my phone, but i want its full potential, it just came to my attention that i might have a fake phone sold to me which i cannot give back, and i don't have any problems whatsoever, amazing device, but I thought something was off when you boot the phone and it shows the Mi logo as always but at the bottom it says "Unlocked" so i thought that was weird, that's not normal. I learned how to check which model was sold to me with the IEM verifications i read on this site which were very helpful. I learned that I have a mi 5x phone. But I have mi a1 with 7.2 and witnessing the "Unlocked" word on my boot phase i immediately thought it was a custom ROM. So lastly mu=y question is how to easily update (without rooting cus i don't know how to do it) this MI 5X with A1 rom device to android 8.0+ because i have a security patch that's august 1,2017. And can't be updated to nothing more recent. It's been bugging with me, cus normal a1's have constant updates, i have none. I heard this site was the best in guiding the desperate to answers. It's not that bad, phone is amazing, it's just the updates that's bugging me and the fact that it might not be an official MI A1, just a mi 5x with A1 rom integrated.

I think you should flash mi 5x stock rom with miflash tool.

The fact is Mi A1 have A/B partitions which mi 5x isn't so you can't install mi a1 stock rom officially. Im not sure but i think i saw androidone port for mi 5x. Check your device section.

That's why i asked for guidance cus i don't know anything about installing ports or nothing

I am using 5x with a A1 ROM. Superb!

If your device uses only partition I'm afraid you're not able to update
EDIT: Apparently there's an port of the stock mi a1 rom you can try that https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-5x/development/rom-android-one-mi5x-t3760048

@metodi99 If you are absolutely sure that your device is really Mi5X, then:
1. You can try installing the latest officially available ROM from miui.com: http://bigota.d.miui.com/V9.2.2.0.NDBCNEK/miui_MI5X_V9.2.2.0.NDBCNEK_036516ce73_7.1.zip
2. Then download MiFlashTool from: http://api.bbs.miui.com/url/MiFlash
3. Follow this guide: https://www.xiaomigeek.com/flash-fastboot-rom-mi-flash-tool.html
Good luck.

CM and Themes

Hi. I would like to buy OnePlus 2 but I question whether in OxygenOS will work themes for Cyanogen? If not, or will CM for this device? Or maybe better to buy OnePlus 1?
No, Oxygen OS has no Theme Support.
I think Cm will build for the OPT too.
Since the Bootloader is unlocked and ROOT is arrived , CM and other ROMS will be come to OnePlus 2.
Okay, thx. Which is better than you? OnePlus One or OnePlus 2?
