[Q] Custom ROM for Xiaomi MI3

Hi everyone.
As we all know how popular the Xiaomi MI3 is, I was just wondering if there can be any possible Custom AOSP based rom for this device.
As we all know the Nexus 5 and Xiaomi MI3 have almost similar hardware would it be possible to port any nexus 5 roms to the MI3?
Agreed that Xiaomi doesn't release sources but is it possible to port something from nexus 5 due to similar hardware?
Simple answer is no. Without the kernel source code you can't get anything booting. Because they don't release the source code is the reason they have no forum and never will

Ohh I see. No point in having a forum if no source code is available.
By the way MIUI based custom roms can be developed right? Since they can use the stock kernel.

But Many ROMs have been ported for Mediatek to medaitek based devices without having kernel sources

That they have but without any kernel source that is the best you will get. Is a port that may have bugs that can't be fixed (that the Og ROM doesn't have) due to no source. Also no kernel options like gov or over clocking ect.

Varun chitre has already made an alpha build of cm11 for this device without the kernel sources.
And yeah Xiaomi will be releasing kernel sources later this year

Source Code for 900H released, FINALLY

Hey
Samsung finally gave in. They released the source code for SM-G900H.
Finally ! So we can now expect a lot of support and development from indie devs I hope
http://opensource.samsung.com/reception/receptionSub.do?method=sub&sub=F&searchValue=g900h
although, its kind of an older version G900HXXU1ANG3 and not ANJ1 or J2. Could that be an issue? Hope not
you just saved my g900h... I was going to sell it and buy HTC ONE or LG G2 just because of no rom and...
thankssssss
And One question... can we get custom lolipop too or it needs another source code...
By The Way custom kitkat is awsome too...
This is great news.
Just recently got an S5, and didnt know there was a Snapdragon and Exynos varient.
Unfortunately i got the Exynos varient so modding is super limited.
Hope this will help developers make some custom ROMS.
Im still waiting for lollipop, or a rom without the ugly Touchwiz would be nice.
Great news?
What are you on? Sources have been available since last April.

Kernel sources have been available for an eternity, I had them mirrored on my Github for 9 months... https://github.com/AndreiLux/ref-3.10/commits/universal5422
And Samsung usually puts up updated sources upon an OSS request in a few days.

I dont understand. This was the exact reason many devs stated for not making many roms for 900H.
Could it be that the kernal code ur talking about was an older one? Ur github says XXU1ANCI, the latest one is ANG3 or sth ? That the reason?
SM-G900H

HUAWEI P9 Lite_OpenSource(VNS-Hisi_Andriod 6_0_kernel)

Hopefully someone makes a good use of it.
Could you tell me how to flash this file ?

This is not for flashing. That is the kernel source code for this device.
Is just for developers.
They always release the Kernel Sources for their device. but the devs needs also the sources for the Kirin SoC's.
Don't think you will be ever able to build this kernel. Just tested the source and there are a lot of files missing.
I tried to build but already got a error of missing file 'init/mounts.o' that is required to build the kernel.
Yes you can. I did it myself and I'm quite noobish at compiling. I've upgraded the kernel source as well See http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/p9-lite-kernel-source-updated-to-3-10-t3410130 for the kernel updated as image binary, or the updated source at my github. (props to Paul o Brien for instructions)

Thanx a lot
So what are the chances of seeing a custom ROM with the source for Kirin SoC not released?
And as an aside... any guesses on why it is not released?
Hello, I noticed that the link is no longer available.. do anyone knows why?
I am trying to find it but I found only the chinese DL00 and TL00 version here http://download-c.huawei.com/download/downloadCenter?downloadId=88007&version=344035&siteCode=cn
EDIT: Nevermind, I found it here:
http://download-c1.huawei.com/downl...oadId=87926&version=372546&siteCode=worldwide
*Even if it's Marshmallow

You've discovered the Huawei opensource website, yes. Alice sources can always be found here:
http://consumer.huawei.com/en/opens...Type=openSourceSoftware&pageSize=10&curPage=1
and for custom development team OpenKirin has repositories on GitHub.
surdu's latest nougat ROMs are based on the EMUI 4.1 kernel, and reasonably we won't see anything newer since Huawei's last (and current) updates are security patches.
Huawei source code
Is there anyone who still have Huawei open source code

If kernel sources aren't released yet, how is it possible that there are some custom ROMs already out there?

Dude without kernel sources the devs cannot build or modify custom kernels. Else it has nothing to do with roms as the rom sources are ported from lineage or aosp sources and modified accordingly. without kernel sources there isn't much room for kernel optimisation and modification for better performance or battery as the devs have to use the stock kernel of the device.
So those custom ROMs are using the stock kernel, copied from the original MIUI ROMs?

Yeah with few optimizations and changes.
Xiaomi / every android manufacturer has to release the kernel sources anyway, right? Is there an ETA, or how long does it usually take for a xiaomi device for the sources being released? I am considering buying this phone.
2nd question: rooting or unlocking bootloader goes with the manufacturer's page right? I checked it out and it was in chinese, me as an english user, will i manage to get the phone unlocked?
Petition is signed anyway. I also contacted the global service through mail asking about the REDMI4X32_GLB_BLK kernel source release. Will keep you updated if I get a response
Edit: I just ordered a moto g5 but will keep u updated if I should get any info from xiaomi support.
Edit2: Reply from the Xiaomi team:

You may refer our Official Website http://www.mi.com/en/ and Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/xiaomiglobal for more information.
