[Q] [REQ] Cyanogenmod 12.1 for MT7-L09 - Ascend Mate 7 Original Android Development

Hey everyone,
Since Lollipop 5.1 beta has been released, there should be a way to get CM12.1 for the MT7 now.
Unfortunately, i tried porting CM12.1 to the MT7 but it's way too hard for me.
So i hope one of you guys who made CM11, could try to make the new version of Cyanogenmod.
If there's anything i could help with, feel free to send me a private msg.

As I already posted in another thread, I read somewhere that lollipop will be available soon for Honor 6... Given that these CM11 ROMs for Mate 7 are a port of CM11 for Honor 6, I am confident that soon it would be possible to have CM12.1 for Honor 6 and then for Mate 7... Am I going too far?

I think its more of a question of if/when Huawei releases source code for a 5.x kernel, Be it for the Honor 6 or the Mate 7.

Since the official 5.1.1 update has been released, isn't it possible to make roms for it now?

Which cyanogenmod build (official or unofficial) to use ?

Hello,
I tried to search "cyanogenmod" in this forum but the search engine crashed repeatedly. So let me post my question here.
I plan to purchase the Samsung Galaxy note 10.1 2014 (SM-P600) for mainly hand writing notes purpose. I also would like to install cyanogenmod (even if it voids the warranty),
but although this device is within the officialy supported device list, there is still no stable release for it, just nightly ones.
Within the developer section of this forum, I saw several cyanogenmod threads where some unofficial roms are proposed. So my question is : which cyanogenmod rom to install ? preferably the most stable one and with a working S-pen.
I would be grateful to one developer to lead me towards a working rom for this device.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards

Flash the unofficial release. Official CM doesn't have proper device support and never will. Also, don't upgrade the stock rom to Lollipop in order to keep the KitKat bootloader. The Lollipop bootloader causes CM not to play well with the s-pen.

Actually cyanogenmod changed their minds and just updated to our new repos just a few hours ago so you should be able to grab the next official build of CM13 when it gets released.

Cyanogenmod/LineageOS support

Now that google announced to stop updating the device in September this year, will Cyanogenmod/LineageOS stay working on this device? So we will still get android updates? And if yes, for how long do you think? Thanks in advance
Hi,
I think we will get android 8, but if not, dont worry, there are a bunch of costum roms will available. Example my Nexus 7 stopped on MM, but i use N 7.1.1 Lineage on the tablet. And there are a lots of other 7.1.1 rom available. So the 5x will be the same.
And also, the nexus 4 started with 4.2, stopped on 5.1.1 but there are 7.1.1 costum roms for that and they works fine. So dont worry about how long we will gets the latest android. I think at least to Android 10.

Thx mate. Never had a device with real cyanogenmod/linageos before. Wanted to make sure this device was still worth the money for some years.

MIUI 9 Beta testers recruitment

I just randomly opened the en.miui.com and I saw that our Armani is also eligible for the MIUI 9 update. Guys, take a look and apply maybe?
Deadline for application time is 1st, August 2017 (Beijing Standard Time)
MIUI 5, MIUI 6, MIUI 7, MIUI 8 and now MIUI 9. It has been a long journey. Really excited!! Looking forward for it.
http://en.miui.com/thread-697553-1-1.html
I was so pumped when I read it. I can't believe Xiaomi will indeed update their old devices. My hopes are high for them. But I doubt it might take a long, but that's fine. ?
Do I need to be good at debugging to be able to have a sense in using beta?
Also, does that mean that the camera blobs for our device will be updated to fit Nougat? And does that mean a better camera experience on other Nougat ROMs?
OR will it be another new UI with outdated system?

I still doubt that Xiaomi will be updating the android version too. Still hoping for the best.
Good at debugging? I don't think that is compulsory but surely it'll help the developers if you are.

I just hope that the Android version would be updated too. But as far as I can see, it wouldn't be. Just like the release of MIUI 8. It was based on Marshmallow for new devices but the older ones were stuck. Nougat runs fine even though with a hiccup, but hey at least we know it's working and it's possible to have one MIUI ROM based on Nougat.

Yeah! let's hope for the best. I won't think it'd take that much time. Armani recieved MIUI8 update earlier than Redmi 2.
It'll will be on android kitkat only for redmi 1s, just updated ui and fancy stuff. So just don't hope that it'll come with MM for redmi 1s. :laugh:

Yeah. After a few days, my hype disappeared. Somewhat disappointed on what will happen. I don't care about fancy UI and colorful stuff. I want a bit of nudge on the Android version. I'll be fine if they notch it up to 5.1.1 or 6.0.1. Thanks to the devs here in XDA, I got a taste on Nougat even though the phone tries hard to catch up.
If there is no xda, our device Armani would have never get past android version 4.4. (Well most of the devices)
im sure that in miui 9 also the android version will stay at 4.4.
One year ago I have dumped my redmi 1s and shifted to RN3 ,but happy to seee miui 9 for our little Beast...
Miss this forum and device. But I keep checking a month how development is gng on...
Its a wasted effort, the company has even dropped MIUI 8 support for Redmi 1S. The only version available seems to be MIUI 8.2.1.0 while a lot of devices got 8.5.xx. Redmi 1S has reached EOL.

You're right. I can't see any info about MIUI 9 update for Redmi 1S even though they promised to do so.
RIP
MiUi9 stable version is now available for China ROM and it gets regular updates
System is still KK 4.4 but the MiUi version is quite fresh and fluid
Thnx

[Q] Huawei M2 8.0 Custom ROM ????

Has anyone found a working Custom ROM for the Huawei M2 8.0 tablet?

Hello Eagle-no1,
I have the same tablet, and looking for Custom ROMs for it since 6-8 months now. So far found nothing, at least not for "Global" version of it.
Mine is the M2-801L model, with the latest official B208 ROM installed on it (Android 6.0).
If you need any details on official ROMs, check my other posts on that topic.
Custom ROMs for this tablet seem to be a pain in the back side, because of the Kirin 930 - official explanation (where the same CPU is on the other Huawei models like Honor P8 or X2 and still lots of custom ROMs are available for those) - not sure what would be the unofficial reason if any...
Hope this helps anyhow.
Have a nice day.
Kind Regards.

[Q] mix 2 updates

Hello.
Does someone know why xiaomi mi mix 2 doesn't have support from the manufacturer ? The last update is from 01.08.2018 ,this is not an old phone,it's a flagship.Does someone know the real reason?Anybody have any news about pie ?
That's the reason I decided to go for a custom ROM. I had a Huawei P8 before mix2 and their support was a piece of s..t too. The worst about that was that there was almost no custom rom development become of Kirin.. I am glad I have SD device now because I can make decisions I couldn't before. If you want to be up to date with security updates, use a custom ROM. They are built by developers that do care about your device ?
A Miui 10.2 update is currently in the making. The China ROM already received this update like a week ago. Global Stable update should be coming soon.
