[ROM] SlimROM 6.0.1 [Zuk Z2 Pro] - Lenovo Zuk Z2 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Overview
SlimROM, we all know it I guess..
Download
Zuk Z2
*Alpha: Feedback needed, unknown stability
More prop blobs needed.
Z2 Configurations
Device
Kernel - Github Pending
Kernel is unified and can also be used with Z2 Pro
Vendor
Alpha Notes:
This may not boot, I'm like 65% sure it will. =<
I'm pretty sure my configurations are correct, we'll see right?
This device is very similar to the Z2, since they are using a unified kernel I believe they may also be able to use unified props etc etc, so we'll see.

This will be done building within the next hour, a few things to note.
Z2 and Z2 Pro share very similar HW, I have used many of the same "software drivers" between these phones.
If this build boots on the Z2 Pro, I will post my configurations which will be "Good enough" for others to use as a base.
I would like to know the following ASAP:
- Wifi
- Camera
- GPS
Thank you, I'll post DL link in 30-45 minutes; this will be finished building by then.

what is the difference between this thread and the below one?

It's up, feedback will result in almost instant rebuilds from this point on by the way
Edit: Really... since the Z2 and Z2 Pro are almost identical phones on a HW level I have used basically identical configurations.
Maybe some HW things will be broken, I am excited to begin debugging

Just saying, I am depending on people to confirm it so please before posting anywhere :X
Also if the HW support isn't fully function I would like time to resolve it before posting it too; please leave feedback

thx bro, this is very helpful
because according to the Chinese zuk website, a lot of people complained that the source code is not 100% released,
that's why alot of sensors dont work.
But i am very happy to see developers finally taking this step moving forward.
if u need help with translating chinese from the chinese zuk website, i would like to help.

I don't own this device at all, I just looked at the hardware and created something that I felt looked like would be fine.
There may still be HW problems; I haven't used this ROM and really depend on user feedback the most.
Honestly when I started threads here at first I was just high and thought it was funny that people were trying to start a donation pledge for ROMs or w/e.
HostZero is the only other person with a fork of CM for the Z2 Pro but I literally don't understand his configs they have been structured in a way that really annoys me.
Because I do not understand them I don't feel good about touching them; it's possible he may be right but his configs want things from Oppo device which he used for staging.
I think those configurations are not right so I've kind of had to build the Z2_pro configs from what I know of the device (barely nothing outside of it's specs)
It may not even boot; so I mean if people are flashing and using this I want to know because it is largely unknown what is happening with it function-wise

the recovery said "this package is for device z2_row; this device is Z2P"
I think it was the signature problem.

WOOPS LOL, I misnamed the device! Yeouch yeouch
Remove the assert in updater-script or wait a minute LOL
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "z2_row" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "z2_row" || abort("This package is for device: z2_row; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + ".");
This is incorrect on my part; ups.

Which recovery i should use? it's failed to me with TWRP 3.0.2

[UPDATE 7/24][ROM][BL1.2] Honeycomb Android Illuminate for The Gtablet\Zpad T2

Mod Edit: As stated by forum moderator jerdog in post 814:
FORUM RULES:
"Encouraging members to participate in forum activities on other phone related sites is prohibited."
The issue here is that directing traffic elsewhere is against XDA rules, and while there is no requirement to actively support your development efforts here at XDA, saying it probably won't be supported at XDA and that they can get support on your forum is kind of low and has been removed after requesting LBS do so - to which he did not after 2 days.

cool let me know what you think so far and if you let me know what the things are you missing the most and really need besides Flash. LOL but yeah I want to make this a Honeycomb that is a well rounded Android. So i want the advice of new features and such they have heard about.
Checked out the youtube video, looks pretty sweet. Will try it out tomorrow to see the improvements with hardware acceleration etc.
Edit: Let's see some benchmark comparisons between BoS and Illuminate.
Make sure you do the following
Unzip recover.zip and move recovery folder to /sdcard folder
The recover.zip file can be found in the Roebeets thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1078897
Regards,
Kenny N
Humm -- I got stuck with the boot loop . I am updating from 3588 stock recovery
Regards,
Kenny N
After half an hour struggling, I am able to load your HoneyComb edition. I am going to play around with it.
To make everyone's life easier.
Make sure you nvflash your device first using the following nvflash image
http://www.mediafire.com/?g7vorg66iiq29vm
1. Download the nvflash image above.
2. Download the recover.zip from (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=596319&d=1305415712 ) and extract the recovery folder to SD root
3. Download this honeycomb image and rename it to update.zip and copy it to your SD root
4. nvflash the nvflash image
5. Reboot with Power + Volumn up. This should bring you to the new bootloader
6. Flash the SDCard external update.zip
7. Wipes
9. Restart
G'd luck . Thanks linuxboxsolution for his contribution. I will comment later.
Nice -- OpenGL is working perfectly. The benchmark from Quandrant is 1780. Not great but can't really complain

That's funny, I could have sworn you claimed previously to have "fixed flash" too!
Does enabling OpenGL break the stock browser? Or have you done something to work around this issue?
Is the main difference from Roebeet's HCAdam and Vegacomb mashup that is Bottle of Smoke that you have enabled opengl?
This looks very promising, currently running BoS 3.3 and was about to jump to 4.1 but I might have to try this first. My apologies if this has already been covered but what exactly is the difference between this ROM and roe's BoS? How were you able to get hw acceleration on here while BoS lacks it?
Thanks alot for your contribution, and I'll be sure to post my findings later today.
just wondering
so if the opengl is fixed, how come flashed is still hasnt fixed?
i believ robeet said the opengl is what makes flash doesn't work
OpenGL is enabled but not working.. it lacks on driver and without flash no OPENGL.. note on that..
and one more thing.. BoS has HWaccel and working, like gingerbread... the only problem is video HWaccel HD playback..
BoS 3.3 or 4.0+ boot quickly too, smooth UI like that, so i can't really tell what's the difference between the two, except for bootanimation.. LOL
I, for one, appreciate your efforts
Going to start posting in XDA's GTAB forums, at least sporadically. I think enough time has passed and things have changed around here (ie a lot of 1.2 mods are popping up, which I think is a good thing). Plus I'm not really seeing the moderator "changes" that were heavily present in April. So maybe things are back to normal. Maybe.
With that in mind, I wanted to say that your efforts are much appreciated - the end goal is to get a good working HC ROM for the users out there and if you have the ear of some people to make that happen, then that's what counts. I already mentioned in Slatedroid that I plan to pull back a bit after this month with modding the GTAB, so any extra dev / modding work is ALWAYS appreciated, imo.
Thanks again.
Looks awesome, will flash once I get my new PC built >
Thanks roe
So first of all thank you for your work.
But this is different from bottle of smoke because it enables OpenGL right?
Any other changes?

Not quite sure what that means, but if you want to see what it looks like, you can watch the youtube preview. It's at the bottom of the OP or here.

Hi Dudes!
@sykopompos and I decided to first base this port off of LPV79, upgrade it then to LPV81C and after that, we'll be merging it with AOSP again, so that it'll become more than a port - the same procedure which was done with the Android L Developer Preview port for Nexus 4!
Currently, @sykopompos and I are working on a diff between the /bin and /lib files for the Nexus 5 (hammerhead), the Nexus 7 (flo) and the OnePlus One (bacon). Jump in if you're into it, because work gets done faster when more people are helping!

Hi Dudes!
As my Laptop won't be reachable for me this weekend, but you are going to work on the port, I am just sharing what we have right now!
The following is only intended for developers and porters!:
It is flashable but not fully bootable
(edits to the ramdisk are necessary; contact @sykopompos for more info)
It is Android LPV81C for Nexus 5 with proprietary files from OnePlus One added
The kernel (boot.img) is taken from official AOSP 4.4.4 KitKat for OnePlus One
The build.prop and the updater script are edited for OnePlus One

Port is now really progressing!
I am currently flashing test builds to logcat and @sykopompos is focusing on init for kernel right now, so that L will boot properly.
By the way, the.port will be based on LPV81C!

It will be 'up-ported' from Nexus 5's Android L Developer Preview Image. As the OnePlus One uses the same SoC (Qualcomm Snapdragon 801), the same GPU (Adreno 330) and has the same resolution (1920x1080) like the HTC One M8, which is a Google Play Edition device which is the reason for why its device repo and kernel source is uploaded to Google's Git - this is the key, this port may not be this hard to do.

Not just yet, caffeine needs to kick in first
Game plan is like so, sync n5 template into a new fork for a bacon rebase while I fix hammerhead (thanks @ramjet73 ) then over to flo to fix the camera there ( thanks @bitstra ) then over to deb to fix the camera there (same solution as flo and was tested) then we will track down the missing file according to @jayfallen 's radio log.
By then bacon should be synced up into it's own fork and I will go buy a pizza. Then time to crack open the bacon and get working on L for it. Once we get that booting, then I can work through the other issues and since I have a loaner to test on personally, just keep going at it

There is the game plan but first a question for you guys as a need to know bit of info. How do you get to recovery? Please don't tell me it is finger gymnastics like on the g3.
I will properly have to do several battery pulls over the course of my testing and working.
@iH8ra!n did a ton of prep work already on pulling all the proprietary files and comparing them against hammerhead while I was working on a solid base from hammerhead to use so make sure you thank him because that cut down the research time that I would have had to do.
First we will start with the aosp boot image to get our kernel, bootcfg and ramdisk to put together. We will merge in the permissive sepolicy from hammerhead (no big jumps here just yet on rewriting anything till we get booting, that is an optimizing thing) then once that is out the way, start working on the system, we are going for a basic boot here (it will come with lots of fc that I will have to work through) then once we got the basic, I can't test radio functions cause of the bad Sim pins so I will have to take a break there and get feedback from you guys.

sykopompos said:
You should see the latest build of my L on the n5 now. You guys are in for a treat on the 1+1 soon.
Ramjet figured out the camera bug on the n5, bitstra figured out the camera bug on the n7 so when I get home I'll merge those fixes in, put out a test build for them to approve and then all the nexus devices are done for right now and will go up as official builds. Then I can focus solely on you guys, the g3 (will be basically going up alongside of you guys or maybe even forked from here) and then I'll go back and redo the m7

Well the n7 and n5 bases are working, just trying to solve the broken su issue on 81c before we go farther with the templates.
I should have my loaner 1+1 by Wednesday or Thursday so we can start plugging away at it.
Figure I will do mako tomorrow, flo, deb and hammerhead also a bit but probably more on Tuesday. (Hammerhead will take the longest time to track down how I broke the camera before so testing new proprietary bins in batches)
I still gotta get to rewriting the m7 boot.IMG like I will have to do for the 1+1 so that will take a little time but it won't take long to get it booting on the base boot.IMG before my rewrites
EDIT (1): Got a fully permissive, root enabled base for n7 and n5 now

sykopompos said:
Right now we are going through a rebuilding phase. My past week of going back through every thing has been eye opening to say the least on a issue with the base so I'm going to demolish the original bases and start back over fresh with the original preview 81c images and build it up from there.
Most of the work will be going on in the mako thread.
I also wanna thank tiny for joining in here. He has been working on the m7 port and his help will be greatly appreciated here also. Once I get the bases together and the loaner 1+1, this should be a breeze

Still merging the n7 onto the same base as the n4, once that it done, I'll merge the n5 to the base and by then, my loaner should be here so I can skip the basics and jump it right up.

Going with Hansel and gretal for the theme. Gonna be laying out some bread crumbs and basically merging mako into a flo repo, then taking it back to the flo preview and then merging it back up to where we are with bunny but leaving bread crumbs on the way back up, then clone flo into deb and make deb work plus rebase the m7 guys. Then do the same thing over with hammerhead, then clone it and work up g3 and 1+1. Then merge them all up to 81c with the new frameworks and apps even though we aren't getting much and then merge in all the newest binaries on all builds.
This way we have a common base and they are all at the same place then we can work on merging more aosp in since I can go across the board to every device that it is ported to. I should talk to the lg gee guys and the g2 guys and get them in the same place.

Gonna work on the m7 for a bit, seems with the permissive sepolicy we might have caught some headwind with all new selinux denials that weren't there before which means hardware that wasn't trying to start up before is now trying to start and I just need to direct it where to go.

Battling a couple daemons on the n4 and getting ready to turn selinux back on for it plus cleaning out some unneeded crud on it.
Do you guys know if there is anything changed in the root files for the specific version of cm vs what is in the available source code? I mean the ramdisk because I will need to compile it and the init to incorporate the changes I need to make to have selinux play nice

Still doing a bit of homework and sorting through everything. I only got about 2 hours of sleep in the last 31 hours since I'm switching back to night work so I won't be up too late working on it but I should have something late tomorrow to test out and see where we are.
We will see if we need to change the caf video drivers in the kernel then to play nice the n5 base (can snag the drivers out of the n5 preview kernel source) after I get a first dry run together

I'm still chasing a bunny on the n4 so I can correct the m7 problems so I haven't gotten time to look at the 1+ too much yet.
There will probably be some backporting from hammerhead preview kernel to get everything flowing right but it shouldn't stop anything from booting in the mean time.
I gotta fight with selinux a bit again but this time instead of hacking around it, I'm actually going to get it working correctly

After playing around on the g3 last night, I saw what I wanted to see. The g3 right now at this point needs some serious housekeeping before it can go anywhere but the one plus one is a lot cleaner of a base without too much junk in it that needs to be cleaned out. It is definitely possible to get L up and ported over for the one plus

I'm just doing research at the moment but it seems like the 801 uses the same general board as the n5 just in what I am looking at with my g3 that I just got and combing through lg's source. So at least it shares a cousin which will make it possible. No promises on anything yet, I'm gonna be seeing what I can actually do with the g3 and if so it can share the same base

This thread is the official Android L Developer Preview Port Thread for the OnePlus One!
This port is based off of Nexus 5's and Nexus 7's (2013) Android L Developer Preview System Images (LPV81C).
This port can be used as daily driver for the vast majority of Android users!
The series is called "breadcrumbs and bunnies" (witches come into the brew later).
The purpose of the series is to start fresh off of the LPV81C system images.
From the beginning, we'll be leaning out anything unnecessary and expand to other non-Nexus/legacy devices afterwards.
Give all your credits for this port to @sykopompos and the Android L Porting Team!
Android 'L'
At Google I/O 2014, Google revealed the new Android 'L', set its release date for this autumn and also published a Developer Preview for Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 (2013).​

Nice initiative, mate.
Good luck bro!
Really? Android L on the opo?
Inviato dal mio OnePlus One
I'm just doing research at the moment but it seems like the 801 uses the same general board as the n5 just in what I am looking at with my g3 that I just got and combing through lg's source. So at least it shares a cousin which will make it possible. No promises on anything yet, I'm gonna be seeing what I can actually do with the g3 and if so it can share the same base
Doesn't the Nexus 5 have the Snapdragon 800 processor instead of the 801?

It does but they are both 8974s, doing some research on it, it seems it takes the same basic code when it comes to the hal so it might be possible. I was able to replace all the /lib/hw over on the n4 port from aosp so it should be doable. I gotta do some more research of course and this is all early research so it most likely won't be that easy. I gotta dig through the code a bit more to be sure first though

Great job on my N4 and Android L. Let these guys do what they do because if they can get it running I am sure it will be right... Thanks for all your efforts :good:
After playing around on the g3 last night, I saw what I wanted to see. The g3 right now at this point needs some serious housekeeping before it can go anywhere but the one plus one is a lot cleaner of a base without too much junk in it that needs to be cleaned out. It is definitely possible to get L up and ported over for the one plus

Oneplus One port!
This would be amazing - was using your port for the Nexus 4 (and followed the amazingly long thread!) until it slipped out of my hand and smashed... Luckily, received an invite for the Oneplus one the day before though so got one of these... The only thing it's missing is the Dev preview!!
Would be amazing if you guys could manage a port. I can't help with much but can do the usual n00b stuff like giving feedback and testing... You proved 1000 people wrong with N4 - do it again!!

Don't you mean 2 amazingly long threads when you count the general thread that I piggybacked on and took over plus the development thread.
I'm not promising anything on the one plus one, I don't have one so that does limit my ability to work on it plus I haven't fully gone through everything but it does seem like it is possible using the n5 developer port. There really is so much that can actually be done with the developer preview as a base since most used tools are not working on L yet and without L source it is difficult to get things to mesh right.
I won't be dedicating that much time to this as I have multiple projects still going including the n4 port that need to be finished up plus my hours at work will be picking up. Once I do some code reviewing I will have a better idea of what direction to take it on how to get this working.

As much as the offer is appreciated, I can't guarantee anything on the port actually working yet and I wouldn't feel right if I couldn't get it going accepting donations for a device I have done no work on.
Does it make it easier, yes having the device and trying things myself to see is a lot easier than having it proxied to me but that shouldn't really hinder much. As I have no intent of developing a custom ROM for the one plus it also would put a hamper on it and if I accept donations for a device than I feel committed that I would have to.
Notice I said custom ROM, there is a development project once I finish up the ports I do intend on as a development resource for ROMs but not a direct ROM for the community. The one plus will be part of that project but so will many other devices, having as many devices as I can to directly do the work would help but it is not a requirement

AOSP Rom

Was able to get a ROM built and running based on LRX21V straight from source. Just trying to get a feel on how many people would want to run AOSP. There are some bugs present such as video recording causing the camera to stop working. I think there are binaries missing that Google didn't include in the binaries that are available. Same problem happened on the Nexus 5. Didn't test it much as I just purely wanted to see if it booted.
Also there is a lack of gapps available so I won't be rushing to get anything out. Let me know what y'all think and I'll try to tackle this to get some other options out for us.
Here is the test build for those that want to have a look. This is just a test build so bugs are to be expected. Video recording does not work. Haven't tested it completely as I need a fully working device this weekend. This is for those that have free time to just nit pick and find all bugs in this. Please report back after you are done and let me know what else you may have found that is broken or not working right.
Stock Google kernel (so if you flashed the kernel image to remove encryption your phone WILL be encrypted again)
Built off 5.0.0_r7 from AOSP
Flash ROM, flash gapps and flash SU that is linked below. This will allow root access on the stock kernel.
You can also optionally flash the custom boot image after flashing the ROM, gapps and SU by rebooting to bootloader and fastboot flash boot the custom encryption kernel. That is optional. Be sure to go back in to recovery after flashing the kernel to reflash the SU to make sure it was not overwritten.

That is pretty offensive. It is a new device and isn't in the developers hand so releasing work without testing their work leads to quality problems.
I don't see you doing any development work and developers don't owe anyone anything as they do all this work as a hobby pretty much.

I know the reasons behind it, which was the point of the "no offense." I wasn't whining. I was trying to help motivate and encourage OP. He, as well as others, are working on making things happen and I'm excited for it and waiting eagerly for the kernel source to drop.
You took what I said the wrong way, so step off of your soap box, zephiK.
Edit: That reminds me. If any devs need testers, PM me. I'll be happy to help the community out.

No. Minor bug fixes for the particular device it was made for but that's it. I did notice on the N5 that there was a significant "miscellaneous" battery drain on r7. Might roll back to r3 if its present since r3 is the one for us (its also the same build for the N5).

Miscellaneous bug again? I wonder if they broke the same thing they already fixed, or if this is something else that is just falling into miscellaneous as well.

lol ... Your account should be banned.
i think there's two, and i've tried them both - but back on v5 if that helps. both can be downloaded here: http://www.miui.com/download-110.html
the first one is miui_i9505_shiro_5.5.22_297f4c9327_4.4.zip - works ok but google apps won't work & I can't get titanium to run (freezes at 'checking for sqllite'). I've tried both clean flash and dirty on top of v5. In a clean flash wifi won't enable.
the second one is miui_i9505_rainbow_5.5.22_6a27167d52_4.4.zip - everything was great with this apart from one thing, 3rd party apps can't switch on mobile data. this is shown as 4.4 kitkat so might not be linnked to the lollipop changes, but even with a rooted phone various toggles i tried & more importantly automateit couldn't enable mobile data (it can disable no problem).
so for me, one has wifi probs, the other data toggle probs. both deal breakers so i'm back on the one here.
another Shiro version released today, same link as above. trying it later...
edit: still hates titanium.
Are there any mirror for these downloads? I cannot do better than 3K/s
I'm surprised people actually want to run MIUI. As good as it's interface is, and as beautiful as it runs, it ain't a patch on any TW ROM. Very strange.
And I use a genuine Xiaomi phone as well!!

I don't see why people like MIUI vs TouchWiz or AOSP, or CM.
MIUI is big and bloated and slow and full of Chinese unnecessary dog****. The Redmi Note 4G (my phone) runs MIUI V6 and seems to have lots of problems but when I flashed a Lollipop CM12, improved hellishly, but no camera so I couldn't keep it

Oh I wasn't looking for an argument, was just hoping you could tell me what I'm missing when I switch away. The phone I have right now, runs MIUI, so trust me, I've got lots of experience, but to me, it just isn't worth the bother. Plus, their update cycle is painful.
I guess it depends though, if you're a developer MIUI really isn't for you, but perhaps as a user, it might be more appealing. I find MIUI a really awkward platform to develop on.

RevOS-MIUI rumoured to have added support for Mi Mix 5g

Does anybody have experience with this rom? They mentioned on a twitter post earlier this week that support for Mi Mix 5g will be added soon.
https://twitter.com/RevOSTechs/status/1260523438877429763/photo/1
I think I'm going to try it right now.
Please report back how it goes, especially with functionality. They are claiming MIUI 12 so I am keen to see what is and isn't working.
I have successfully downloaded and flashed it! ?
Hello,
I am here, from Kuala Lumpur, MY
As for now, so far so good. Need to experience more the latest miui12!
See yeah!
I'd say the same. Everything works well except for some minor minor bugs with the dark mode and 3rd part apps (like SwiftKey) and the fact that it's not that fast and smooth as the previous one I had (pixel experience). The main camera app works as well and video recording works too (but for some reason it records only up to 1080p 60 fps). The main question I have now is about the battery drain. I hope it's at least as optimized as the pixel experience is.
Great reports,
Interesting about the video working to 1080p. Any idea if 5g connectivity is working?
I wonder what they have based this on as there is only MIUI 11 beta ROM in circulation as far as I know and this registers as MIUI12.
I think they kinda ported the ROM from the one for the Xiaomi K20 Pro since they have quite the same hardware. I read once that, even if it's very risky, you can force flash a K20 ROM on the Mi MIX 3 and it will boot anyway. Unfortunately I can't test the 5G network, BUT:
There's no "Tethering USB" option in the settings. This functionality is disabled for some reason.
There's no "Hotspot" option in the settings. This functionality is disabled too :crying:
The ROM is quite laggy (Don't know if it's because of a conservative governor or if it's just about a bad optimization).
I think I'll roll back to pixel experience, too many problems that need to be solved yet.

I flashed it on the global version and got a lot of problems like loosing my EMEI and so on. Luckily I had a backup. But I don't want to go back to Android 9, do you have a link to the PE rom? Thanks.
Btw, it is the rom from the Mi8SE.

The official RevOS website says, that the 5g rom is a port from the mi8SE firmware.
I tried it again and now it seems to work. But I can't set the Fingerprint. Did you tested the Fingerprint and if yes, was it working?
Guys, is this an official ROM of MIUI for MIX3 5G? It will be update normally?

Actually I don't remember of testing the fingerprint scanner, but it's always the first thing I set during the first set-up, so I don't remember if it worked on my phone or if I skipped that step XD
A porting from a completely different phone with a different SoC family and model, different modem (and it's not even compatible for the 5G), different screen type and resolution? The only thing matching between the Mi 8 SE and the Mi Mix 3 5g is the main camera sensor XD And I'm not even considering that there are different approaches to the light sensor/proximity sensor and so on. I mean, why?
Maybe the challenge strange, I haven't got any set up screen. Straight into the launcher. I will test PE instead. Sounds promising, thanks for that.

No? There isn't even the official MIUI 11 for the Mi MIX 3 5G. This is a porting from the MIUI 12 ROM for the Mi 8 SE apparently, made by this RevOS Russian team.

Me neither, but then there was the Google notification to complete the setup of the phone and I did it.
Yeah, I'm using it now and it's absolutely perfect. The video recording is the only thing missing.

sorry i'd like to know if this is an official custom rom (like lineage), and not some unofficial or unstable ones, thanks.

The MIUI 12 is absolutely unofficial, and way far to be something barely stable XD
Anyway, every custom ROM for the Mi Mix 3 5G is Unofficial.

No I don't think they will, the Mi MIX 5G is (officially?) abandoned, although there is a petition here:
https://www.change.org/p/xiaomi-corporation-upgrade-mi-mix-3-5g-flagship-to-miui-11
So maybe Xiaomi will notice that that wasn't a fair and smart move, I mean, forgetting about their first 5G smartphone (and in general, one if not the first 5G smartphone ever made), with top-notch features, initially sold for around 600$ is nearly like a scam.
Anyway, I don't suggest you install the Revos porting at the moment. It lacks many basic features (such as USB tethering or the Wi-Fi hotspot) and it's very, very laggy.
