Are you looking forward to the 2018 flagship phones from Xiaomi - Mi 7 & Mi Mix 2S, especially since Project Treble will allow for ease of custom rom development ?
I probably won't upgrade my MI6 to MI7 but for other reasons. I don't like capacitive buttons and fingerprint sensors to be desapeared from front side.
Project Trebble is a great idea and is mandatory from factory Oreo versions. It will be easer to upgrade Android versions, even with MIUI.
I'm not so sure about kernel sources liberating, we have to wait more every time a new smartphone has been released from Xiaomi. I hope dev work will be easer to do with Project Trebble, and we get more stable custom ROM's.

Well, mi6 is my last xiaomi phone.
Without kernel sources treble is not comprehensive resolution.
I will buy phone from company which provide better developer support. Probably OP but I will also take a look what Huawei will do

Hello guys
I have noticed that there is no kernel sources launched for mi a1 yet.Being an android one phone its kernel sources should be uploaded .
What are you thinking please comment and vote in the poll.
I'm sure they'll release it, just give it time...
"When asked about the status of kernel sources for its devices (with a specific mention of the Mi A1 from our end), Mr. Mani commented that Xiaomi’s focus is on providing quality kernel sources and not just uploaded for the sake of it (we assume he meant complying with the GPL…), like several OEMs in the lower budget market tend to do (if they release sources at all). The internal goal of the company is to release kernel sources within three months. Mr. Mani also commented that unlocking the bootloader of Xiaomi devices does not void warranty."

Just give it time. Also Mi A1 has the same specs as mi 5x or I'm wrong? someone could port a ROM from that phone to ours I think

The Mi 5X also doesn't have its kernel source uploaded, just yet.
Is this a joke? A brand that want to be respected and doesn't comply with GPLv2? Don't buy their crap, please...
I am about to receive my Mi A1. In general, I do prefer MIUI over plain stock Android (...yes, I know that is not that common ). So naturally, I am thinking about to directly flash the A1 into a Mi 5X.
What are your opinions? Anybody here who has done it? Bugs afterwards? OTA?
Not going to work... You could brick the device..
I hear somethink about differences in partitions so better just don't do that because you can REALLY brick your phone.
Mi A1 has A/B partition which allows seamless updates whereas Mi 5X has the normal single partition. I suggest you to wait for about a month. Xiaomi will release the kernel sources (hopefully) this month and developers will make a MIUI ROM. If you tried to flash the Mi 5X ROM, you will end up bricking your phone.

What happened to XDA and moderating team?

If you wanted MIUI, you should've gotten yourself a Mi 5X. What's this nonsense thing, flash A1 into Mi 5x? It won't work. Be prepared for trouble if you try to do so.
Wait for kernel sources to be available, development to swing in. There will be a number of custom ROMs including MIUI.

Please, before asking anything read and search, there are many many many threads about A1 vs 5X. If you want Miui just because of Miui and no other reason than I can't get it why you bought A1, 5X is in general cheaper then A1.
Can't wait for Xiaomi to release kernel sources and someone ports Miui so this can stop.
can we make a thread for flar2 to ask him to support Mi A1 Device ???
You can PM him. But it's his choice. He may not have time to support our device.
Maybe someone can use his source as base (our device is 3.18.x i don't know whether elementalX has 3.18 branch)
Would be nice to have some more options regarding custom kernels for this device.

Can we get official iOS port to mi A1? If we message apple enough I think apple will be forced to port working iOS on our beloved mi A1...
God you people are ridiculous... Devs work on their own free time and you guys don't have a right to ask for anything.
A2 users can convert A2 to 6x and flash any Custom rom available for 6X
Lineage OS:https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=278917
AOSPExtended ROM:https://downloads.aospextended.com/wayne/
Havoc OS:https://sourceforge.net/projects/havoc-os/files/wayne/
Mokee OS:https://download.mokeedev.com/?device=wayne
One more:
Pixel Experience Official Oreo: https://download.pixelexperience.org/wayne/
i hope linageOS will port to Mi A2 without convert to MI 6X
The development of roms for the Mi A2 is very bad, there is no ROM for the Mi A2 without being converted from Mi 6X.
Havoc OS will be updated or not ?
all of them stable?
Tried every single of them, all of them is stable, and daily driver material. As far as I know, there is no major bug in any of them. Currently I am on LOS 15.1 with latest gapps nano package.

I regret buying this pos phone. Zero suport both official and unofficial.

Convert to 6X, official TWRP support and ROMS.
Good night friends!
Why is the best ROM (BOOTLEGGERS) for Xiaomi Mi Note 2 not getting more updates?
This is without a doubt the best ROM for our MI NOTE 2.
I ask that the Developer scorpio continues with this project and update this ROM to Android 10
Forgive me for insisting, but this ROM is the best for MI NOTE 2
I would like scorpio to continue the project.
