If this device wouldn't release globally, is there any possibility to get decent Android development for custom ROM? What's your point of view?

Searching the whole Redmi 4x a.k.a Redmi 4(India) thread on XDA I came up to know that xiaomi has not released kernel sources yet. I was looking forward to buy this device but looking at the lazy response from manufacturer I doubt the development and getting it. Share your thoughts and suggestion down below. Should I get this device or get Lenovo zuk Z2 plus which is available around the same price ?
I'm waiting for a deal to get one for my mom. I'm happy so far with my Note 4X (SD 625) which I'm running with Resurrection Remix, so I think a slighty downsized and down-specced version would be great for her. If there is no custom firmware in the near future, she'll be fine. I wouldn't wanna miss LOS or RR on my phone, but MIUI isn't bad for lots of people.
There are already a few custom ROMs for RM4X like yurekaOS based on nougat 7.1.2 and as i read in forums it seems to be running ok for the most users.
Still i wouldn't expect too much in custom development. see RM3S for example. there are ROMs available but development goes slow
So if you are no friend of MIUI (and upcoming MIUI 9) and want lot of custom development then you might consider buying another phone.
Hi,
any plans for CM 13.1 or Lineage equivalent for Redmi Note 4X Qualcomm not built on nougat?
Need Android 6 as 7+ doesn't allow for USB bus speed auto-negotiation, which is "kinda" big deal in my application.
Thanks for input

You are asking for "Mido" not for Redmi 4X "Santoni"
It is better to search here:

only xiaomi knows, unfortunately....
Stop crying and start shouting at Xiaomi to release kernel
Create threads at mi forum
Requests for kernel source
Send mails to Xiaomi
There are few change.org requests check and vote there
I did few of the above
Hope we get kernel source for max2
I just heard that sources have been released for mi max 2
I was thinking of buying this device if there will be support for custom roms as im sick of using miui for almost 3 yrs(redmi note 4g)..... specifications of mi max 2 are simply perfect
I just wanted to know will there be any custom rom support in upcoming months....i can help in being a beta tester if developers are ready to give us roms... I'll buy the phone as soon as devs starts to release roms
Thanks
If you choose to wait until rom release, then u might have to wait another 1-2 months Itll take a bit of time to properly use the kernel sources and develop somewhat stable custom roms. I am staying optimistic though! In the meantime, take a look at my Index thread over here for currently available stock & custom roms:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-max-2/development/available-stock-custom-roms-mi-max-2-t3737523
Otherwise, if you choose to wait, it might be worth waiting until Mi Max 3 is released: https://www.google.de/search?ei=MkB.......0...1c..64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.w3wkBQQgc3s
Naturally, it will then take again some time for kernel sources to be released and custom roms to be developed... Its always the conundrum of waiting for custom roms on the previous year model or having the latest model but without custom roms
Okay then i guess i'll buy rn5 or mi max 3 whichever comes first...
RN5 probably will have kernel sources and custom roms available much faster.
Hey all,
i would like to know if we have some known XDA/Android/Rom/Kernel developers here ?
I'm wondering if the Mi8 (dipper) development will ever start ... and it seems like Xiaomi itself doesn't really want custom development on the Mi8.
They directly releases Kernel sources for SE and the new Poco F1 within some days ... and the Mi8 was released in June and its nearly september and still no news or kernel releases
Why isn't there any custom rom development for the Mi 8 SE? I really wanted to buy this phone for the amazing design & hardware in this price but don't like MIUI that much
So, is there any possibility of rom development for this phone in future?

I believe is should be ''yes" rom based on AOSP or LineageOS..etc
you mean that so? someone will make that thing for it. cuz source kernel for it is ready and released, many user xda or miui 4rum using this device.
But, one very important thing "Trebel running as well on almost devices and mi8se is also supported by this project and using some rom in the project treble, running quite stable and less bugs''.
So many one users mi8se here, there are a lot of reasons to believe this. it will comming soon , just patience to waiting.
