ROM ..why not for miA2 - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

I have been looking for great custom ROMs but I haven't found except pixel experience that's too unofficial for Mi A2....I don't understand that why talented developers are not considering this device...hope n wish I can see n install great ROMs from great developers community...wish n request developers to initiate it...

I guess because it's an Android One phone, most users (myself included) already got what they wanted.

Previous years Mi A1 got many roms/kernels. But it took some months because of the A/B partition. This years Mi A2 should get everything like official TWRP recovery, official supported custom roms,kernels etc. Just we have to wait. That's it. Developers are trying.

I would love to develop ROMs like I did with my previous phones, but since the Mi A2 community keeps "demanding" developers to step up and develop them free roms, I'm not going to. I'll probably develop one for myself and if someone wants it, I'll charge for it.
Cheers.

Instead of begging dev to make rom for this device, why not you visit project treble thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble .. since a2 has project treble support so why not you try something from there... plus, please give devs some donation for their hard work, appreciate their efforts... and try to not begging them to do something..

Are you a developer.....well idk....tell me in which language requesting is begging....you don't need to develop any ROMs.i will not use even you put it for free...you are mannerless...learn some basics ...arrogance leads to destruction....peace...

Any ways thanks for the link...

Project Treble for Mix 2

So as most of you probably are aware of the OnePlus fans made a petition for Project Treble but they got the response that they didn't have a partition for it. We on the other hand have the /cust partition.
Therefore we have made a petition for Project Treble

Signed, thanks for sharing
Signed!
Very good initiative! Signed.
Could you elaborate what it would mean for development of Mi Mix 2 ROMs, kernels etc in OP? You'll get more people to sign it that way.
lol

Project treble will provide fast updates via Google because the changes made from vendor are separated and applied over the running OS in a way with kinda 2 different partitions
In theory xiaomi could give the sources for that and now everyone can compile stock Android os and flip the part of vendor they want to.
So yeah it could increase the availability of custom ROMs but also it's stability due to more openess (for Google in its first place ).
Am I right?
Let's all hope.
If thats not gonna happen, for my next phone (whenever that's gonna come) I'll make sure the vendor supports project treble
Cheers
Signed with multiple exclamation marks, lol
I've signed petition I'm planning to buy this device. Getting treble support will be game changer...

Because there is little rom development for this device?

Greetings Friends,
I have seen very little development or developers for this device is very rare because the A1 before releasing the Kernel already had development, and this device was already released the kernel but I still see little development.
Yeah i dunno why developers not intrested in this device
How long ago did they start selling these devices?

Longer than A1 when it takes first customs
Before Launching the source code of the A1 Kernel and there were ROMS and Magisk modules for this phone, the participation is very minimal, I think they were all for the RN5.
I just hope developers will have a look at Mi A2. Is it too early to expect development?

Lineage for the A1 started 6 months after the release.
edit: Also the Pie update is near so probably nobody wants to waste time on bringing up a 8.1. based rom.
Another thing is that it has Treble GSI A/B support, so you can install a variety of already popular roms right off the bat. I know a custom kernel is under development that has both overclock and underclock as well. I am currently using the Arrow GSI rom and it works very well. I have xposed and root, I also get way better battery life than with the stock rom. The only bug I have is the front flashlight turns on when I use the front camera. You can flash any of the A/B roms on this site if you want more roms.
It even includes Pie roms and lineage os. I see no reason devs would want to spend time making something that already exists.
They will most likely work on kernel development/tweaks to fix bugs in the already existing treble roms, like the camera bug in the rom I am using.

No Custom Rom for Mi 8 SE ?

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.

DerpFest and Evolution X ROM Xiaomi MI MiX (Lithium)

Hey devs and casual users! I own a Xiaomi Mi Mix phone and I heard about these two new ROMs: DerpFest and Evolution X ROM.
They seem to be cool, but I couldn't find official nor unofficial support for any of them, not even here on XDA. Actually, I found files for both on Android File Host under an user called linvn, but I don't know who it is or if there's active development for the packages. What I know is that the latest DerpFest package (DerpFest-10-Community-lithium-20200620-VANILLA.zip) was updated on the 20 of June, so it seems to be somewhat active.
I don't want to use the packages and take the risk of bricking my phone. If you are a developer, if you are someone interested in there ROMs or know something that could help me, I would love to know what you have to say.
You can look it up by searching the package name + Android File Host link .

Downloaded both of them while ago, too lazy to flash. Guess I've flashed some of linvn's roms before, couldn't be found on xda, as some Chinese devs don't care about it.
