Im pretty new to rooting and ROM and stuff. But I have a question about how to update my HTC Desire 10 lifestyle to Oreo (or maybe Android P, even if I guess its too early maybe). My phone is already rooted with TWRP, so now I just want a fresher android version pretty much. On HTC:s own website they have a list of ROM downloads so I was looking for an official firmware, but couldn't find one for Desire. So is there another way to do this?
EDIT: realised it said HTC 10 and not HTC Desire 10 (lifestyle and pro) on HTC:s site, it was only wishful thinking from my side.

Any update on this ?
I am also looking for update or any custom ROM which might be compatible with my Desire Pro 10.

I just bought a lumia 925, through ATT. Comes with 8.0. Update isn't giving me 8.1 yet.
I am wondering about installing the dev 8.1 rather than wait for ATT to get around to offering it.
1. Any downsides to installing dev 8.1 rather than waiting for ATT's 8.1?
2. I am thinking that installing dev 8.1 may give me the whole op sys, rather than a hobbled version from ATT (eg, the ATT 8.0 has Data Sense removed). Might this be correct?
Dev and final version are usually the same, but once the official comes out, you will updated to the final end user version of 8.1, along with the Lumia cyan update. But, on the other hand, the official release is so close, a matter of days/weeks, might as well wait. Not sure if dev version has the data sense app, but if that's what you want, flash the preview. Doesn't matter in the end since you'll be updated to the current version either way. Just less hassle waiting for the official release.

I don't mind waiting (really, I am not finding 8.0 as much of a problem as I expected it to be after reading all the raves about 8.1).
My interest is mostly in getting all that functionality that wp 8.1 has, and not have some of it stripped if I wait for update through ATT. It is my understanding that Datasense, for example, was removed by ATT. Perhaps other features also. I don't know.
So, if I can get Datasense, and whatever else might be missing from ATT version, I'll go for the dev version. If the update through normal channels will be the same as going for the dev version I'll wait. (Again, assuming that I am not letting myself in for other problems by having the dev version)
I updated to 8.1 today. Install of developer app, then 3, 8.1 updates. An d yes, it has data sense.
So far so good. no problems.
Good for you, buddy
Hi,
I recently bought an Redmi 2 4G model 2014817 in HK for a friend.
I would like to put the phone in french using an update of MIUI or a new ROM (stable). Currently only chinese and english are available.
I've read a lot of messages and it seems a bit complex.
What is your advice?
Thanks a lot!
I couldn't find a device-specific thread here on XDA, so I'm going to point you to the right section for your questions [in another forum].
check here: http://xiaomi.eu/community/forums/xiaomi-redmi-2-4g-lte.134/
Thanks I saw I've seen that except it's almost impossible to register.
In case I don't succeed to install multilingual pack, could I install another rom like cyanogen or a "clean" android (like on nexus) ?
Maybe I should wait a bit as the phone is quite new.
Cheers !
If you want to have MIUI with french, you have to use this ROM (specific for your device). It's the MIUI 6 Kit Kat Multilanguage.
If you want other ROMs, there's something Unofficial for now, the device is new. There's an Unofficial CyanogenMod 11.
Installing Multi MIUI it's very simple: http://en.miui.com/thread-11242-1-1.html
On this link it's for MIUI V5, but for MIUI 6 is almost the same.
Thanks a lot for all those info, I'll make a try today and let you know. I will try to keep MIUI first.
I let you know
Cheers,
Hey,
It has worked! in something like 5 minutes, very easy.
Just you need to install the driver before (on Win 8.1) to have better access to the internal memory.
Drivers link: androidxda.com/download-best-android-adb-driver
Now I'm waiting for a new multilingual version with MIUI6
Thanks a lot!
3 or 4 months ago I searched this forum to revive my friend's htc one. Tried 3 or 4 ROMs and ended up sticking with Lineage ROM.
I can't remember which one but in one of the threads someone shared a link of a custom ROM site. Where they listed some supported devices and ROMS they maintained officially. Not all of them on updated android iterations, but they were maintained like on Marshamallow or Nougat. I also saw that they maintained nexus 10.
Thought I'd try that ROM on both HTC one and Nexus 10 later but forgot to bookmark the site. Now I can't find it. Can someone please help me find that. The only clue I remember is that it had both HTC one and Nexus 10 as their supported devices (Nexus 10 ROM was on old android maybe nougat or marshmallow or lollipop). I know it's not much to go on. But I'm desperate.
I'm interested to buy z20 but I have never owned a nubia (or zte) phone so I wanted to ask:
1. Historically speaking, does nubia give android version upgrades to their z series phones? Like their most recent z17 and z18?
2. Did they announce / guarantee that android 10 will come to z20?
I want the stock dark mode feature in android 10 so I'm asking if it will come to z20
???
As a Chinese and who used Nubia X before, I can tell you NOT RECENTLY.
Nubia is a company that it doesn't like to update system regularly for their products even they know the users are not satisfied with that.
I think it may get a android 10 update next year (before the next generation of Z series), but don't expect too much. You'll get used to the Nubia.

Thank you for response. I do expect them more or less to not give updates because they aren't as known or big a brand as huawei/xiaomi and even popular oppo/vivo is very sketchy in giving updates.
Did they give android version upgrades to z17 and z18 series? I mean from nubia, not custom roms.
I have seen custom roms for z17 series phones. Will z20 get custom roms in future? I only need the basic stuff as long as the multi-tasking of both screens is still available. I have apps that can do the game space stuff.

The z17 and z18 just updated the UI, but the android version is still the old. I think next year z20 will got an official android 10 update, but not very recently (second half year? maybe)
For the custom roms, in the future, I don't think there would be too many, since the phone is not very popular even in China.
The Nubia X now only have Mokee (official) and MIUI (unofficial).
Ok, that's all, hope my reply can help you. Thanks.

Custom roms are only possible if the company releases the phone source code or whatever it's called? Has nubia released it for z20?
I thought nubia x had an official pie beta?

this appears to be the set of blobs for the NX627J
https://github.com/AndroidBlobs/vendor_nubia_NX627J
Guys the device hasnt update since end of October.is that normal?other Nubias has....
I have a Nubia z11
The phone was released in 2016 . as for system update
The EU ROM was updated till android 7.1 from android 6. And cn version gets update on android 6 last sept we got new release . the cn version also has android 7 but development was stopped. As for custom ROMs
My z11 is on havoc 3.3 android 10 with gcam.
All I can say is if you have a developer to support the device for at least a few years its more than enough.
Hello,
i've put in the old days and Android 9 Custom (52.0.A.11.3), can't remember which one.
I have now seen that there are official releases for Android 10 custom roms.
In the various rom thread, I've seen that there is need to get back to official Android 10 and to boot it.
What is the best option for me?
If I manage to upgrade, will I be able to move back and forth between them to give a try ?
Can all of them be considered as daily drivers ?
And final question, shall I do that, of is Android 9 still a good choice ?
Thanks a lot
