Hey guys,
Just picking up and using my trusty P20 Pro after a couple years and noticed no custom kernel (4.14+) or ROMs for EMUI 10.
Anyway, just checking if anyone else has done work on this before I start up on it. I intend to start with some custom kernels based on 4.14. Then maybe a custom ROM based on the released 10.0.
I have hardware testpoint but I've sealed up my phone (for now) and will be using software testpoint (via force upgrade) from now on if required.
Edit: I couldn't even find work on the latest kernel on Github, so I have added one here:
xsacha/kirin970-kernel (github.com)
Since this seems surprisingly unpopular, I assume it's because people don't know how to do custom firmware on EMUI 10? I'll write some instructions here for how to do software testpoint in a separate thread here: How to flash kernel in EMUI 10 via Software Testpoint mode | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
Hell ya I would like to help
when you have a new rom i am whiling to be a beta tester
Hello, can you add camera2 Api with this method?

I bought this Redmi 4X yesterday, it asked for update and I did it. I'd like more of a stock andro experience but I'm not yet sure if I won't lose some camera capabilities (I never had a smartphone with camera that makes people look better before). So I read that Xiaomi gives different MIUI versions to download and supports this fully. But then I learn that "older" version of MIUI that I have (MIUI 7 vs MIUI 8 I have) has newer android 7 compared to my android 6. Why is that?
Is there any consensus on least bloatware on Redmis? Also, is MIUI the same as rom, or it's just an addon installed on top of AOSP? Sorry for asking such questions, but in my case I always understand things after I already have flashed some roms, but don't have any backup phone in case I brick my phone.
Current stats:
6.0.1 MMb29M android
MIUI global 8.5 Stable
8.5.2.0 (Mammied)
Hi
Sorry but did you buy a xiaomi smartphone without take any information about it ??
1st question : will you try to root & install custom firmware ?
If answer is yes, you should first use method to unlock the bootloader.
After that, everything will be so easy !
First, I'm so sorry about my poor Chinese English.
I'm new here, just registered 5 minutes ago.
In our China forum 'Coolapk', some cool guys invented(sorry I don't know whether they invented this method) a method, which can directly flash Android Pie on their devices by recovering backups via TWRP RECOVERY.
They named this 'technology' FFAP(Fast Flash Android Pie).
As far as I concerned, most of them succeeded. Even AOSP ROM for Pixel 2 runs successfully on Samsung S9+. That's amazing!
Then... I searched 'FFAP' on Baidu, the most popular search engine in our China, found that THE DEVICE MUST SUPPORTS PROJECT TREBLE.
Redmi 6 Pro supports this.
This means we can fast flash Android Pie on it.
Someone succeeded. Let Redmi 6 Pro ate the pie!
Luckily, the ROM has been packed.
You can just flash it by TWRP.
Download ROM:

to be open and honest here, i would not recommend anyone to use the provided link , if u want to use android pie i would strongly recommend to use this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...e-howto-flash-gsi-redmi-6-pro-sakura-t3852191 please use software that people can trust , like in the guide i provided above dont just flash any gsi, or zip someone posted which is registered for 5 minutes.

First of all, to flash anything (root,TWRP, custom ROMs) you must unlock Bootloader
Second, check the threads in ROMs section but if I recall correctly for P9, EMUI 5, there were only two or three custom ROMs based on stock and one or two (LOS and maybe RR) based on AOSP - developed (and stopped) back in 2017
EMUI 5 was not ready for GSI ROMs, and every custom ROM must have been adapted and ported to P9
You probably think about new, GSI based Pixel Experience or similar ROMs - for that you would first need to update to EMUI 8, Oreo (and rebrand from your Italian to Chinese EMUI because EMUI 8 was only released for China)
All together not impossible but not as easy and friendly as if you would have a new (Android 9 or 10) Xiaomi, One Plus or a similar phone where you just unlock Bootloader and start experimenting with GSI ROMs
Last but not the least, specially if you are a newbie, think about the community regarding help, learning from, sharing experience - there are only two or three users who are still actively experimenting with GSI/AOSP custom ROMs on P9, posting only something from month to month here, hence you will mostly need to go alone

If your device is unlocked, rebranded and updated to EMUI 8.0, you can install GSI ROMs with some issues. You're better off installing OpenKirin ROMs or sticking to EMUI 8.0. This device isn't very active in development, but we will try to help. You can install phh-based Android O/P ROMs. Android Q GSIs don't work because of this device's VNDK 26.
Hey there,
I have been looking around the internet in hopes of finding a custom rom for my Huawei phone. So far I've only come across and article on the website tweakdroid but the downloads there are not available. I would like to run LineageOS on that phone and I've already found some ways to eventually unlock the bootloader and root my phone. I don't see any reason in going through that process though if I don't have any ROM to flash onto the phone. If anyone could provide me with some official or unofficial custom rom files I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
As far as I know no custom roms have been developed for the P10; only emui forks and images that make use of project treble. OpenKirin used the latter and also managed to use the emui cam app, but has been abandoned. You may be lucky with this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/c/project-treble.7259/
Hello,
after two month of normal using without any experiments or flashing / rooting my Redmi Note 11 stuck in an endless bootloop similar as descriped here: Xiaomi Note 11 stuck to rebooting into recovery mode 5.0 after unlocking the screen
I was not able to do any recovery so I ended up to wipe all data and now the phone is booting normal and can be used again.
But befor I'm going to start setting up my phone again from the scratch (because Google backup did not work) I would prefer to use a custom rom without all of these ****ty MUI apps like cloud, video and pdf viewer and round about 7 billion other apps which are anoying me with endless popup messages and registration requests.
This will be my first try to install a custom rom but I already found this tutorial: [GUIDE] How To Install A Custom Rom On Redmi Note 11
First of all thanks for the work of this tutorial I think this will help me doing the first steps.
So here is the question:
Is there any working stock Android 13 custom rom for the Redmi Note 11 without any unneccessary extra stuff?
seems that crDroid could be close to what I want: [ROM][OFFICIAL][12.1-13.0] crDroidAndroid 8.x - 9.x [SPES|SPESN]
what would you suggest to me?
thanks and regards
Stefan
Hi Stefen,
Seeing as how long it has taken Xiaomi to get Android 12 to our devices via OTA, and even there it appears most have STILL not recieved A12 via ota and have had to force the update...
It's unlikely we'll see Android 13 / A13 anytime soon.... I reckon we won't see stock Android 13 for at least another year or more...
Not to say we won't get it, as our devices are supposedly supported to A13 and Miui 14.... but based on timescales, we're a long way off yet...
Cheers, Lister
ah ok, thanks for the clarification. I thought Android 13 is possible yet.
So I guess the right question is: is there a clean stock Android 12 for the phone?
Hi Stefan,
No probs, depends on you're build of current official stock rom. The easiest way to find out, is download the Miui Downloader from PlayStore.
Then head to this page, and find the appropriate rom for your current rom.
This Windows app, will also help you find what you need....
Thanks, Lister
I think the xiaomi.eu roms are debloated but it's still miui

Xiaomi.eu performs better than stock MIUI but worse than AOSP custom ROMs. Based on my experience with 13.0,5, it took almost a minute to boot whereas with Evo X 13 and PE+13, it boots half a minute
Can you use stock camera with AOSP roms?
