Please note, they also wrote this:
Note:
1. Updates for Mi 5 / Mi 5s suspended.
2. Updates for Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm / Redmi Note 3 Special Edition suspended due to fingerprint issues.

There is currently no file available to download, probably because of this Note mentioned before. Let's hope they will release it in the next few days That would be great!
pato

Little update, the chinese beta rom mentions the reason why it's supended:
1. Update for Mi 5, Mi 5s, Mi 5s Plus, Mi Note 2 and Mi MIX suspended this week due to the testing of Qualcomm codes optimizations.

Will there ever be an official global rom for the Mi5s ?

Well that's great news!
This indicates that we will get global rom

So never then.

You never know, but adding the Mi 5s into the global beta rom is a very good sign of it being supported in the near future

I think they just did an error: mi5s should be read as mi5s plus.

Nope, just posted by a forum admin:
hi sir/madam
@EladBr @CL0SeY
please stay tuned in the forum for more update and latest announcement.
after verifying with handsome admin @PatrickXi there is no typo, and global beta/stable ROM for Mi 5s will be launch SOON!
cheers

Stable V8.0.13.0.MBGCNDI

My Mi 5s was (yesterday) already delivered with 8.0.15.0 preinstalled. Thanks for the .13. link for the Mi 5s Plus.

Are you sure it isn't fake rom from seller?
Sent from my MI 5s using XDA Premium HD app

So far no, but I asked seller to leave original ROM installed and he confirmed that.
Also there are several other users with this version in the en.miui.com forum. A mod there asked for pictures, but hasn't replied since with uploaded them.
At least in fastboot mode it looks like it's unmodified. Anyway, going to install global ROM once the official version has been released (maybe tomorrow, maybe in 3 weeks).

Suspended for the second week........

Do you guys think mi5s plus will also be included on this particular update? Or just the mi5s?

It should also be for Mi 5s. We should see tomorrow.

For the 3rd week now, update from today does not include it.

Sadly no, I fear they wait until the Nougat update for the Mi 5 is out :/

I cannot believe my eyes. It seems the biggest feature will be "Built-in rich and colourful advertising"
a more recent article appearing on a credible website http://www.gsmarena.com/nougat_update_confirmed_for_xiaomi_mi_4c_mi_4s_mi_note_and_mi_max_-news-22229.php
i think it safe to say that nougat is confirmed for our device,what remains to be seen is when?
I would never use it i would stick to CM 14.1.
The story is not 2 months old! On MIUI forum they says this:
"3. Update for Mi Max / Prime suspended for making preparations for Android 7.0 beta testing" (from China Developer ROM 6.12.15 theme)
One of the beta-team admins says to me: wait for 6.12.22 update, its possibly will be on Android 7.0 [for now Mi5 has 6.12.15 with Android 7.0 Beta build]

Hopefully they will release soon.
Thank you
Well the mi max prime hasn't got it's weekly miui en update this week... So hopefully that means that we will get the nougat update very soon

They are recruiting beta testers. that means development stage is over. for the last two weeks the beta builds have not been rolled out for mi max hydrogen as well as helim. Let us hope that we get Android N soon

Android N or Marshmallow?
Marshmallow....because....closed beta of Android N(MIUI 8) for Mi5s was released in 16.5.17....and is very unstable EVEN for beta dev Miui....i think weekly N rom for mi5s will be released in several weeks...
I have tried the leaked 7.5.15 and worked great. Only issue for me was not getting gapps to work. Thats the only reason for me back on 7.5.11 android 6

ETA of Android Version 8.1 for Mi A1

Is Xaiomi ever going to release version 8.1 for Mi A1 or we will just be getting security updates without any android system upgrade ?!
8.1 is way more stable than 8.0 and it has got a bunch of cool features like changing of System notification shade according to the applied wallpaper and what not..!:laugh:
Nokia,Sony,Motorola are skipping 8.0 and directly going for version 8.1 for their devices for the same reason.
Is Xaiomi headed in the same direction too.?!
asking too much lol

Sure we are getting it. But when is the unknown part. Try asking Xiaomi And social media like Facebook or something. But I guess it won't be long. Let's say in 2 to 3 months we'll see it. Only Xiaomi knows that answer for sure

OTA vs flushing

I bought a new MI A1 which came with the august patch. I expected it to update but no OTA upgrades were found. I used mi.com/verify/#imei_en and saw that I have a mi 5x imei with a global rom.
what is the difference between 5x with global rom and a "pure" A1?
what are the differences between an A1 that got OTA oreo vs if I flush to the latest global rom myself?
the company says there is no such thing as a global rom mi 5x. they are saying mi 5x with global rom is A1. is this true? if so why am I not getting any update?
I am a bit frustrated so thank you for the help

From what i can undersand you have an mI 5x and not the mi a1. The seeller sold you an mi 5x with the mi a1 rom on it, so no updates. for you. Sorry. I believe that you were tricked.

If I flush the rome to oreo will I get the same phone as an updated a1 but without ota?
The phone was cheaper so if everything is completely the same but without ota i will not fight the seller to return the phone and get my money back
Try getting refund!
I'm sorry but you can't "flush" your phone. You can do that to a toilet tho.
Also, from where did you bought the phone? You just bought a Mi5x with a MiA1 rom. Don't buy stuff from unreliable sources even if it's cheap.

There are many online sellers that sell mi 5x with mi a1 rom( sometimes referred to as fake ROM). Unfortunately, you can't install OTA by forcing it, or cannot use any fastboot ROM of Mi A1. If you do, your phone will definitely get hard bricked. You can head to the Mi 5x forum on XDA to find out more.
