Device Tree? - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

Hi, I have a questions:
At least one developer is working on the device tree? Has someone already tried to port custom firmware? How long to wait for the first custom?
Developers, please mark in the comments(?)!

The developer, Randomblame , is working on it. You can use GSIs in the mean time, ones like phh AOSP, AOSiP, ArrowsOS do support fingerprint.

Kelsi is the only capable person we have right now unfortunately. She is working on kernel rn as you can see in the development section. As soon as her device tree will become close to stable i'll start doing build for 2-3 roms for Mi 9 as well (although I can't be much more than a buildbot).

Lineage OS on Mi Mix?

What would it take for a developer to be able to release a Lineage/CM type ROM for this phone? Do you guys think it is a possibility in the near future or will this never happen?

Source code for starters is probably helpful, and that might take a while with xiaomi....

I've experienced that with the Mi5, Cyanogenmod builds came very quickly after Xiaomi released the kernel sources. I'm also waiting for them, this device would be so much better with Lineage OS, or anything other than a MIUI rom, although the EPIC rom is getting fairly close
You can follow the official github for xiaomi devices here: https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource
Mi5 owners also did a petition though, asking Xiaomi to release the kernel sources for the mi5, maybe we should do the same for the MIX ?

LineageOS 16.0 build spotted on the internet

Hi all!
Today I found a build of LineageOS 16.0 for our beloved cheeseburger phone!
The developer is: @quake73
He tested it on his own OnePlus 5 and previously had crDroid 5.0 treble installed. His phone is decrypted and has OB17 firmware.
thought I share with you guys.
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904002789
Have you tested it yet? And do we know if this Dev is going to throw it in the Dev section on here?

Unfortunately i did not test it yet. I want to but i'm a few weeks away in a foreign country for work so i need to be sure of a stable phone. Will see if i can contact the dev.
EDIT: Just found out he is very active on XDA @quake73 (if you want me to delete this thread, i will)

Well it installs and boots. VoLTE doesn't work on T-Mobile. The back, home and menu buttons work and WiFi works. That's all I use normally that I can test.

Kernel sources for Xiaomi Redmi 6A and Xiaomi Redmi 6 now is available

Can not post links. Just type in google: "Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource cactus-o-oss" and to to GitHub.
Source it`s here
https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/cactus-o-oss
What does this mean, can developers now develop roms for 6a?

I think - Yes. Also maybe anyone can compile now x64 kernel for our x64 cpu device (at this moment we have only x32 kernel).
@Dreyk007
we still don't have a working vendor and tree. the only thing that matters for me right now is a working vendor considering from what i know it's the answer to getting voLTE to work on GSI rom's.

does this include the specific vendor? proprietary ones don't seem to be useful as far as i know. I plan to get on device development when my new PC is built (2 weeks-1 month) since i know the basics already.

Which rom is the best for you and why?

Hi all,
as in the title, which rom is the best for you and why?
Please write pros and cons, if you can (include GSI Roms).

Thank you.

Hey
Actually, I am on stock MIUI rom, because it's stable and because there isn't a good alternative. Most of custom roms are still in development and not completed.
Even GSI, it's not very stable. So, not recommended for daily usage.
In future i think I'll go with custom rom. Maybe LineageOs. I used it on other devices in past years... It's really clean, optimized and well supported.
Global Dev, although still some bugs it's quite stable and reliable.
Will probably switch to a custom ROM once a stable version based on sleak AOSP is available. But I don't trust ROMs from unknown sources so minimum requirement is documented open-source development, e. g. Github. On the previous phone, Oneplus 2, I still run LineageOS at complete satisfaction. Still supplying weekly updates for a four year old device.
Cheers
Toscha

Its has only 5-7 languages in my knowledge. Since i need only English i really don't care about it. Used MS rom in Mi8 (really likes) and now waiting for bootloader unlock in Mi9 to flash MS rom
Regarding Gpay there is a fix. So no issues. And its comes with some bloatware removed so i think battery will be ok...

LineAgeOS (LOS). It's only a unofficial version but works well and is exactly what I need: Stable, simple to use and hopefully in future (official status) with daily update function.

There are already 2 custom roms: Xiaomi EU rom and an AOSP in Alpha version, if you had to look ...

This phone is 6 months old.
It has no equivalent.
Twrp android 12 is not yet 100% functional for phones that are 2 years old or older.
Find developers and/or launch a crowdfunder.
Install a GSI rom.

Currently no idea.
development does not happen overnight.
there is no Chinese firmware for this phone so fewer updates and the developer must have this phone which has no equivalent.

Instead complaining/crying, why u no build some ROMs for this phone?
Anyway, just as a FYI... lead developer will release soon the source tree for #vili.
Then ROM development will go wild. We have some good devs who now are working on this.

Install treble info app see if it says that your devices supports it, after that just follow my guide but use your stock fastboot ROM instead of the 11t pro one

I suggest you use a AOSPA recovery to install things and do the job. TWRP is nice, but the TWRP unofficial is in a bootloop bug mess. Check the forums to see recovery install, after that we can just unload the zip to the device for a custom rom just with a computer through ADB sideload means.
I dont unerstand why this phone is not sell in China , why is only for Globla market? one of the better phone not sell in China... thats why we dint have development, xioami eu weekly, only stable , most of developers are from China , Asia.. they dont have this phone so .. no custom Roms..
