Has production stopped? - ZTE Axon 7 Mini Questions & Answers

It seems to me as if production of this phone has stopped. Is that true? I can hardly buy a new phone on Amazon and prices for them are pretty high lately.
Does anybody know anything?
If that phone is not available anymore, is there any other recent phone which runs Lineage and is less than 200€?

The xiaomi redmi note 5 pro already has an official lineage 15.1 release, so you might wanna check that out.

Hi,
thank you for the reply.

Seems to be unavailable in Germany. Or is "pro" the same als "plus": https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07CZS8W5Y
Edit: seems that LOS is working for that phone: https://www.amazon.de/ask/questions/Tx9VH4UFC499GY

I think the link you sent is the right one. Just make sure it's the one with the Snapdragon 636. Xiaomi (and other retailers) can really mess up with the names.

IPS instead of AMOLED and no front-firing stereo speakers. Looks nice, but is nothing special.

I mean, he was asking for a phone that supports lineage, and this just happened to come to my mind first. Aside from what you mentioned, and lack of Hi-Fi, the specs are pretty good I think.

I read that Xiaomi set waiting time up to two month before allowing the unlocking of a bootloader! I wouldn't want to wait such a long time to start using LOS on the device.

MIUI on the V20

So some people may call me crazy, but will there ever be a MIUI ROM for the V20?

Not at the moment.. May be if the device gets popular
Ive ported MIUI in the past. I MIGHT do it again. problem being is I don't think MIUI is on Android N yet. I was actually thinking of porting it but right now is a no. Im about to switch jobs so everything is a tossup.
There's a beta of MIUI on 7.0, but hasn't been released. And even that, it's on an older, slower Qualcomm or MediaTek device. So we'd need to get a build from the Mi 5S Plus for us to be able to port.

When I did MIUI previously I do not believe I actually did it from another device(it was like 4-6 years ago so i don't really remember). It just needed the same OS version.
MIUI 9

I sure hope so. I just wonder if the second screen, dual rear cameras, camera app and the quad DAC will work afterwards on MIUI.

Official Lineage OS development started

It's just a question of some weeks to see the first OFFICIAL Lineage OS nightly to come on our devices

Great, but what about Capricorn (MI5S)? You found something about that?
Amazing, great news!

Hi,
From what I see here, it's too late...
OK, Xiaomi released some source code, but so far it still has to be confirmed that it can be used "as is"...
Which means : "Without dedicating too much efforts to fix what has to be fixed".
But it's been some days now, and... 14 posts on xda, and from only 4 or 5 different people.
Let me translate : "No one is interested in this device and, even if some custom ROM will happen eventually, they'd better be good out of the box because no one will care about fixing the bugs".
Sorry if I sound somewhat pessimistic, but this is the way I feel about this...
And I really wish I'll be proven wrong.

Hi,
What I mean is, that from what I see, developpers have lost interest in the mi5s and the mi5s Plus.
It has taken too long for Xiaomi to release source code.
So they turned to something else...
If there would be interest in development for those devices, this thread would be overflowed with posts already.
And don't give me a : "It's only been three days".
14 posts in 3 days, and that only from 5 people and only to ask things not really related to source and is it's usable or not ?
As much as I love the mi5s Plus (I even traded my 4/64 for a 6/128 one !) I think I will have to stick to MIUI (which won't be a really hard work... After changing the launcher and adding some XPosed modules, I don't even notice it's MIUI anymore ... or will have to use a "crippled" ROM.
But of course, I really wish I am mistaken... And would love to hear "Hey, the source is working OK. Build whatever ROM you want".
Regards.

Miui on Oneplus 5?

Has anyone found an miui rom for our device? Is anyone planning to port it? (Bump the thread if you're interested so more devs will see it!)
IIRC Xiaomi published a marshmallow compatible patchrom, which won't work with N. You'll have to wait till they release a new one and that, unfortunately, won't be anytime soon (, I think).
sad that it wont come anytime soon :/

Some guy begin porting MiUi9 to OnePlus 5.

However, there too many bugs in this rom.

Thanks! I would appreciate if you, when a new testversion of MIUI 9 becomes available for OP5, writes in this thread and mention the changelog and posts a download link.
Thanks in advance!

? lot of us want miui and looking at the dev support I'm sure we will have it but as usual it will take time as miui port takes lot of bug fixinf
Why aren't you guys considering a Xiaomi phone? I mean, they have some badass hardware if you'd want it, and you would get a MIUI experience that doesn't suck.
Can i ask what the big deal is about miui?

- Mi phones does not support 4G-network in Sweden.
- Mi phones have a high price in Sweden (Mi6 for example = $700)
- Mi phones have a really weird bootloader unlock process.
And go on. In Sweden does Xiaomi phones have higher prices than iPhones and Galaxys. That's why I use 1+ instead!

OreOnOnyx

have you guys seen this?
Lets get this straight! i really like the overal UI and its new notifications control, storage, PiP mode, multi windows, more apps advance control, etc, and wrapped up with nicely smooth and its fluidity! i agree oreo brings more complexity for user exp,, Yes, we've seen this yet on 8.0 and should be upgrade to 8.x.x periodically.
no, this isnt day dreaming,, i would like to know the chances we could have all the new android oreo running on our devices. 0, 25, 50% percentages, doesnt matter,, i really would like to know..so please share your thoughts! newbies, experts are always welcome, and of course active developers are expect to give comments or just their point of views aswell.
Be realistic is good , but there always hope!
**I dont see any insultments, sarcastic words, false argue or even play as mr. always right..between realistic, optimistic and pessimistic sides as usefull comments. so please bear in mind**
thanks a bunch!
Gzr has already got Oreo up on one plus one, so we have every reason to be optimistic

You can root it using magisk and enable double tap to wake in Kernel Aduitor...
I am really happy to see Android O is running on OnePlus X.
Word of the street was it will never run Oreo. But developers did it. Show casing there knowledge and skills.
Thanks :good:

Rom Development

Is it possible to unlock the bootloader on this device? Because I don't see any roms or twrp. I was maybe gonna buy one but not if there is no development.
Not possible as of now. Perhaps will never be possible. Don't buy the device if you're into rooting, etc. Better get K20 Pro.
