You're a power user. Can the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite keep up? Rate this thread to express how "healthy" the development scene is for the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite. A higher rating indicates available root methods, kernels, and custom ROMs.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Just hoping for the TWRP to come up soon. And for LineageOS-like ROMs to show, too. Eager to try them out and unleash all the phone's potential.
Looking good, though
The phone is keeping up very good actually this is my first budget phone after a long time of using the galaxy series,note series and nexus 6p it is a tad slower at opening closing apps and the gpu is also weaker but it is surprisingly good at keeping them open in the background. The battery life is by far the best so far i ever had, around 8 hours of screen time of actively using the phone. I really hope the development for this phone starts up looking forward to testing roms and helping out in the future.
No custom roms or kernels for now but the Kernel Source is already here and there's already some guides about different tasks, so the developpement community promises to be active, in addition to Android One and the GSI roms!
TWRP official is coming. phh-treble will be updated for rounded corners soon. we'll be selling mi a2 lite with boot loader unlocked (which you can do yourself ofc) and a 2yr warranty that won't be void when you flash roms. we're working on sponsoring opengapps twrp and phh-treble and providing dev support / bug bounties.
let me know if you want anything else...like lineageos official, etc.
hope to see development for the phone in the near future
Official TWRP is on the way, hope to see lineageos taking the same way as twrp.
It's a very nice phone, relatively compact, big battery, volte, easy to unlock, A/B partition...
An official Lineage would be pretty nice to have.
Ordered the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite 4gb/64gb last week. Anxious to see it delivered. My old Nexus 4 is still going strong, almost 5 years later, but it is having glitches and severe battery issues when I run GPS and maps. The other day, it reset itself and wiped all my user photos. Most were already backed-up, but still. It runs Android 7.1.2, otherwise. So, time to move on with a new phone.

Agreed but still a great phone, now pie is (un) officially here so it's all good.. what do you really want? It is a banger of a budget.. how many devices have you owned that couldn't even be rooted comfortably? There are quite a few. I suspect things will pick up in the coming months as people keep hearing about this phone..

I have never owned a phone which can't be rooted starting with the likes of htc desire upwards then switched to chinese brands starting with redmi note 2 all have supported custom roms/roots.
This is the only one that has had very poor support.
I don't agree regarding budget cheapest 4gb/64gb version i saw for was about £145 for that price Redmi note 6 Pro is better value.
I don't expect much from this 6 months past and not even stable recovery/root and you would think some one would of done even a basic miui port (even original firmware has lots of issues still with slow updates compared to other android one phones)

:crying::crying: I'm beginning to regret ever selling my GX8 for the mate 7. At least I'm rest assured that the GX8 will have CM 14. 1 very soon whiles the amazing mate 7 seem to have no future when it comes to custom roms and even official Android 7 update. What will Huawei lose if they just roll Android 7 or emui 5 for the mate 7 because there isn't that much of a difference between this device and the mate 8.
Huawei is a disappointment and a failure when it comes to updating slightly old devices....
The mate 7 is going to be my last device I will ever purchase from Huawei and they should consider me a dissatisfied lost customer as well as a potential product advertiser.
Year in year out, mobile phone manufacturers release flagship devices with amazing specs yet fews years down the line, it is considered old and no updates are pushed for it.
It's time consumers demanded more than just updates from these manufacturers.
Until then, goodbye HUAWEI.
Dude! I know how you feel. While Huawei is great at hardware, they are **** at software! The problem with the mate 8 and 7 is that they weren't officially released in North America. This made these phones obscure and thus very little interest in building custom ROMs.
The mate 9 will be officially released in a few weeks and will attract devs to build custom ROMs. It sucks but at the same time it's great because future Huawei phones will get better support. For now, I suggest you either upgrade phone, or learn how to build AOSP Android.
Where is the problem with the software right now? Which features of Android 7 / EMUI 6 do you want? I understand that getting updates is always great, but with updates from KitKat to Lollipop to Marshmallow I can't really complain, this device is now more than 2 years old. It was fine when you bought it so why are you unhappy now? I cleaned up my whole device, reformatted external sdcard and flashed Ale's KangVIP rom. My Mate runs so smooth now.

The problem is that ROM itself. Emui is not a pleasant ROM to use when compared to more AOSP ROMs. Even the new emui 5 is still kinda ****! Most major reviewers state that the downfall of Huawei devices are it's software. For those that tolerate/like it, great! But not all of us do. Sadly interest in these devices is not great so dev support is very low.

Yeah, I agree with you but I wish I could build a custom rom for the mate 7 but I'm not a programmer and I have no idea how to even start.

You hit the nail right on the head... Rightly said.
Since my Nexus 5 died a few weeks ago I have had to go back to using the mate 7. Going from CM13 back to emui has been horrible but I have no choice. To make matters worse the only development for the mate 7 has stopped. For those of us that want a stock ROM we need to pool together and pay a dev to build a ROM.
I mentioned before that the only way we will get a ROM is by putting out a bounty or donating a phone to a good dev. I'm willing to put in money or maybe even starting a GoFundMe....... I'm sure there are many mate7 users that are willing to do this. It might even start a conversation on how horrible Huawei is with regard to source sharing and development.

Its been a nightmare for me as well coming back from CM 13 to stock on mate 7.
I've got this feeling, after the sad goodbye of dear @pappschumpfl, that development support for this beloved and wonderful device is weaning and slowly but surely disappearing. Checking the development section for other xiaomi devices like redmi note 4 or mi6 you can see a lot more movement, discussion and activity.
Anyway, just makes me sad this feeling and I believe it is not only a feeling... With the coming of Mix 2 it will probably get worse. Or maybe with the Mix getting cheaper it will change for the better in the future? What are your thoughts on this people?
There is of course AICP and those guys work is fantastic! But they are mostly alone right now...
Im pretty sure he meant that its his final Nougat rom, as everyone building roms for any device has now moved on to Oreo, so Im guessing we will see more updates once the Oreo roms have been figured out...
As you can see there are a fair amount of roms for the Mi Mix.......

Well none of them are maintaining their builds except for BitO, who's given us Multirom and a fantastic Kernel :victory:
As for Papps he got a Note 8 and I have no idea if he's gona be building an Oreo rom for lithium. He doesn't have to of course.

I think this was inevitable with the Mix being a niche device.
I hope we get Oreo eventually, but at least we have some ROMs that are stable.
Final RR is pretty damn good.
Mix was a high end device, high priced device and now it's an outdated device... basically a standard life for a chinese phone on XDA like this one... exemple is based on large sell device, redmi/mi5/mi6... not the same as ur Mix...
Sadly, i think like u... device will go to trash silently...
Also, around the forums we've seen various devs state that we'll see O
IMO, it would be OK just seeing security patches for what we already have.
I have a Nexus 6P and whilst us enthusiasts want the latest and greatest, honestly there isn't anything worth getting too excited about.
I think it will be maintained for awhile, the sort of people who bought the mix are the ones who like to mess and build ROMs (hoping), only time will tell. Let's face it there is nothing worth buying over this at the moment.
but of course, you can also learn how to build roms, etc.

This is a very good point.
For beginners, here is a step by step for LOS: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/lithium/build
Its not out dated and won't be for a while yet - it is odd and requires an interest in making roms. I am sure there will be development for the roms, people are so down these days.

Every 15 days aprox you have a new updated build here https://download.lineageos.org/lithium
Lineage OS oficial is running for lithium.
I don't understand the tittle of the post.
Worst comes to worst Lineage will be released for our Mixs. If it comes down to it, I'll start developing a Rom.

Doesn't work using the cm-15 branch so far... Or I couldn't make it work anyway. Problem is in Mix sources though, not LOS source...
I think Paps might come back. I went to Note 8 but will be back on a new Mix tomorrow. Missing that beautiful 3 side non existent bezel.
I wrote this OP over two months ago and in this time, luckily Papps hasn't abandoned us completely (thanks!) and BitObsession has been providing awesome work and support, several builds, Multitom and a fantastic kernel (thanks!!!). Also AOSiP came and is being maintained I think, so good enough maybe. The guys behind AICP keep also their work (thanks too!).
What seems still so far away that it seems to me we might not see it is Oreo... Anybody with info on wether the good guys at Lineage are working on Oreo for Lithium??
It's of course ok if dev support stays as it is, and developers do what they want with their devices, but it would surely be nice to see our Mix being upgraded to the latest Android as the flagship it is.
Thanks everybody.
Hie all,
First of its not any criticism thread... Just discussion thread. We all know Oneplus 5t is beast device... One of the finest android phone in the market now..... But why there is so much delay in official Oreo build. And Companies like Xiomi and other other mid range devices release thier Oreos but why not oneplus?
Xiaomi didn't do anything. Only one device of theirs is getting it right now. And that too because it's a stock android device.

Which ones have it already? Also this phone won't be getting project treble either, so if that does end up making updates faster in the future (I have my doubts) then the 5T will be even slower compared to other devices.

My only concern is that after all this waiting, we'll get android 8.0 instead of the already available 8.1. However the Oneplus 5 already has Oreo stable and it is almost an identical phone to the 5t so I don't think we'll go through so many open betas as the 5. I hope the release of Oreo is near!
Oneplus busy making the SW for oneplus 6.

Flash the Oreo Open Beta, and boom, you have Oreo.
Even though it's a beta, it's still mostly stable and solid. Some apps force close, but for me it's mainly Facebook at times, and it's few and far between. Not much is gonna be different in the stable build once it's released, so you might as well flash the OB

This. It's like the huge push to get Lineage 15 for our device, when it's still missing tons of features that make it Lineage. They might as well work on LOS 14 so it could go official like the OP5.
As for OOS, let someone else be the beta testers. I don't need to be on the lastest and greatest just for bragging rights. We're still getting security updates for Nougat from OP so I don't see a problem.
Why do you all care so much about Oreo anyway? 4.7.6 is super stable, and working great.
Wysłane z mojego ONEPLUS A5010 przy użyciu Tapatalka
I don't know as though I "care so much" but I do enjoy having all the possible features and Oreo brings a few additions which aren't huge but worthwhile nevertheless. Considering I had read many reports of OB1 working without issue I went ahead and installed it and guess what, I have no issues. I do however have a few new features I like and I'm all for extra gravy. I would suggest that those that want Oreo but haven't installed the beta, consider doing it, you're probably not going to regret it and reverting is easy enough anyways.
I have the Oreo BETA 1 on my 5T and this is pretty stable, with a great perf/battery ratio, which means that the Oreo stable can only be close to release now.
By the way the A from Xiaomi is getting Oreo, but cellphones like Mi 6 or Mi Mix 2 with MIUI 9 are getting Oreo in beta channel.

No reason to switch. Oneplus 5T has the same chip and doesn't even have treble. Do remember that even the Oneplus 6 (to be launched) won't match the S9 camera. Oneplus is good for raw performance, unlocked bootloader (custom rom support) and less priced than flagships.

Why Xiaomi Mi A1 still not on android 8.1? Xiaomi should have a voice for Google to solve the user, or just a few should also be the direction of choice for users such as creating a MIUI version for Mi A1, because whether GG has the software development, But Xiaomi understands most of his products.
U bought mi a1 because of stock Android, if u want MIUI u should have bought a mi 5x
I was wrong to buy xiaomi mi a1. But xiaomi should also give the user the MIUI option on Mi A1. Google will abandon Mia1 ?

This is the worst community I've stumbled across, and I've been long time xda member...Are you people real? Why do you want 8.1 update so bad, it's nothing major except few not so important features. There is a leaked 8.1 available at xda so we can expect 8.1 on our devices soon, maybe next month. That leaked version has some bugs, so when they fix them we will receive 8.1
You want fastest updates? Buy Pixel or use Custom ROMs and stop ruining community with same nonsense again and again.
If you want 8.1 so bad you can flash latest leaked version, I'm using it and have 0 problems with it, it's my daily driver untill official comes.

Never really understood why its so important to have the latest software. You can run android 5.1 and still have support for basically all software. Anything after lollipop basically looks and works the same. And miui is being ported.
Me, for example, I would buy Mi5X, but it is not available in my country and doesnt have LTE freqs for me, so I bought MiA1, but I am sad about the device. I would love to have stable MIUI on this device.
I would love this device, but battery life is just sad, Google apps use so much battery, especially Photos, they used 15% in 30 mins (and I was just staring at one picture, it wasnt even syncing, it was just idle).

Well, I suffer some bugs at the current state of our stock ROM. Camera has a lot of flickering, battery life not that good and I also got issues with deep sleep when device doesn't sleep at all when it is locked and I dont even have almost any app installed... not sure if Oreo 8.1 will fix it, but I hope that Android P will and will also bring bigger support for our dual camera setup.
Cheap phone means cheap people....
Many of those people complaining are just young baby crying for having things when they want
MiA1 is up to date looking other Android one phone
Xiaomi is working on it we have the may security patch and a 8.1 beta build !
Why those people are complaining ? The phone is working great it have a damn good battery, good camera, CPU, ram etc....
200€ for this is great deal and my previous phone was a 500€ Nexus 6
For the price I have nothing to complain about

And we've got a great and healthy development community, and that's awesome. If you want MIUI so badly, buy something else like the Redmi Note 4 or the Mi 5X.

Actually the thing is their is too much competition in Asian market, and particularly in India the price of the phone is about ₹15K, a price band where most of Indian buy phones, So competition is tough and we have good alternative available in market unlike Western Market. Maybe €200 is not big amt. In your country, but is is big amount in India. And no one had forced Xiaomi to price it lower, they were free to do that, they priced low its their problem now. Nokia 5 Runs 8.1( almost same price) and we also except same as we also Purchased Android One device. Anyways it coming next month anyways.:angel::angel:

Dude... Nokia 5 specs cannot be compared with mi a1. If they share the same price so mi a1 is way better in terms of value for money. Considering we have the latest OS from google (oreo), receive monthly security patches, have a beta build with 8.1 (which is not a big deal since we already have oreo and it's very stable with minimal bugs) and have these powerful specs and build quality then good job Xiaomi.
Stop crying about 8.1.. seriously this is getting ridiculous.

Don't make it what you want to make of it. People keep saying that you have to buy pixel for fast updates, or they give pricing a reason for this. I am just telling them that Nokia gives updates much faster to even the mid range phones. Just telling them that price excuse is lame
Their are bugs believe it or not, charging time has increased from April Patch, the phone becomes like a fireball in hand even when I play PUBG on minimum graphic within one round, And the biggest problem is that the Moderator of their Community, even doesn't reply to these if you post it their, communication is a big problem from Xiaomi's side from starting. People keep asking for 8.1, but AFAIK they give a expected release date, A expected release date will actually close mouth of all such people who keep spaming these threads.
