OnePlus 3 Cm 14

Now here OnePlus gets an CyanogenMod Rom 14 based on Android N officially and you can flash it. In news we came to know that OnePlus would be giving an update at the end of the year to Android N 7.0/7.1 .
OnePlus earlier combined both Hydrogen OS and Oxygen Os and it was an good decision.
The provided Rom by Cyanogen plays very well with the phone but it might some time disappoint you but we did not notice that happening. Man..y users demanded to the faster update to Android N and many are still waiting but now you can download the ROM and use it. Doest it work fine?

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OR will it be another new UI with outdated system?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
any chanche to have global stable?

Will Android Oreo (Go Edition) make it to Redmi 1s ?

So today android oreo (go edition) is announced and will start to roll out from 6th dec. 2017.
I would like to ask devs if they are interested to bring it up for armani because most of the roms these days are heavy and it would be really awesome to have it on our device since it is aimed for devices with 512mb to 1gb ram.
Thanks in advanced.
Has any device got Android Go till yet?
BTW it'll totally resurrect our device if that happens. I'm also excited about it.
Edit: Just saw news about Android Go. I hope we also get the taste of it.

I hope there will be a lineage GO version for the redmi 1S.
The present ROM's are too big. The device becomes slakky.
With de GO version maybe the redmi 1S gets a second life.

Try lineage microg ROM or other roms with nanomod go without gapps try fdroid apps as alternatives, it's highly unlikely we get fully working oreo ROM ( camera issue mainly )
Lineage 15.1 has Go configuration from today.

Any idea if it gives better performance than CM11?
I hope someone picks it up and delivers it to us can wait as long as it takes. I am all in for Android Go Oreo for Redmi 1S. To bring the much required lag free zing
The ROM is now launched and available in Nokia 1 smartphone. This project is worth going for. Request to devs...

True. Camera/video haunts most of the devices using custom ROMs. But using footej helps. So not much of an issue. Once you start using Oreo, forget stock you will never come back to 7.1 even!
Indeed, Oreo rom works great with FP gestures even though its unofficial. Some rumors is that the 15.1 LOS Oreo rom is going official so development is not dead. Go to some stable oreo roms instead of stock and wait and see if P roms will be available for P2 (it most certainly wont)

I would just add to your comment that Android P will be officially released at the earliest in August.
It is not at all certain that someone will develop a custom Rom based on Android P for our Lenovo P2.
If "Yes" I think You don't expect to have it available before the end of this year.
So, I finally changed to Oreo, since FP gestures are also available. XenonHD is awesome.
Video recording bug is solved through adding
media.camera.ts.monotonic=0
TO build.prop file.
It is sometimes a bit buggy when using whatsapp built-in videocamera app but normal camera apps work just fine. Snap Camera is my favorite by the way.

Is is stable on mine aex the best Oreo Rom I've ever seen only problem is fp gestures who I don't care about I don't use them
Hey guys !! First of all taking so early about Android P is useless cause Google has released only 2nd beta. Now there will be 3rd beta and then the final update with source codes. Without source codes nobody is able to build a custom rom. Google releases the codes only with the final update. Secondly shubam the well known dev said that they have put there hard earned money in P2 so as long as there P2 is good and running we will get updates. We can even expect Android Q.:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

Nope.
4.9 is in the making by the great devs and kernel version doesn't matter exactly in ROMs
From now on it's 10 and above
Android 10 is being released for Pixel devices on Tuesday 3rd September.
