Chinese MiUi is partially different than Global version.
Since people in china are more into buying their stuffs so they throw in more updates as well as more supports.The reason why even Redmi 1s runs on Android 5.0 or above maybe being a very old device.
Zuk died and all its models are taken over to Lenovo line-up and ya zui being the their flavour of os in Moto's as well as Lenovo's Line-up they will be updating the firmware according to chinese ppl. Not Global ppl.
And that's partiality. :crying:

Shall we take a look at Samsung and the other incumbents? I'd consider Xiaomi as one of the most liberal when it comes to updates. Yes, the android version might not always be current depending on the device but atleast they're trying to keep even the cheapest devices fresh.

Sadly its only for China ppz.. indian version will never get Official Oreo and P ... Our only hope is Custom Roms

and what does a ZUI based on android P hurt your custom roms? It would only help devs to get better device sources, drivers and such

Latest Chinese Official Release for Z2 Plus is ZUI 4.0.199.
This is based on Oreo 8.0

There are other devices in queue now before ours.
Z5 pro and Z5 both only run 8.1.0, so expect them to get the Pie first, only us then.

with lenovo basically shutting zuk down because they want all ther branches under one name (lenovo) i am asuming there will be no more updates rom wise along with any new phones from "zuk". the best way to get orea now would be to use a costom rom when there is a stable one out, however that might take a while.

Nah, don't expect that.
They might send security updates in 6/8 months (bt chances are like 8%)
And for Android updates not sure, They have already shifted their attention to Honor view 10.
But Project Treble is surely help developers to come up with more custom roms

Yep! Same old, same old1 Unfortunately this kind of behavior is not uncommon for Xiaomi! Why they need this is beyond me! Let me just say that for such a big company this is disappointing and definitely not something what give us confidence to buy their phones and other products in the future. I mean, what's the point?! You buy something and then you hope that they give you fair amount of updates on regular base?! Just around corner but never there! C'mon Xiaomi!!!

MIUI camera is grainy. The quality has gone down. Battery life is fine. Haven't seen any drain yet.

Nokia x7 Android pie

Hey, I bought a Nokia x7 4/64 today. It installed 200mb update and it's on Nov security patch.
2 of my friends who have 6gb version have gotten Android pie update. But why doesn't my phone get it!? They're all for China so there won't be delay because of region.
Anybody has Chinese forums for it? I couldn't find any
Nokia doesn't have Chinese community on its site.

All working great, found just a couple of small issues, when watching a video in Landscape (youtube for example), if I pull down the notifications, the icons are aligned to one side and notifications are aligned to the centre of the screen and also if I pull the multi task view, the thumbnail for the app preview looks like a flat bar that's it really, everything else looks fine and stable.

N one more question, newbe here, what do u mean by side load?
n also, does it matter what build I'm currently on?

You need to boot into recovery, the way I did that was by using the "adb reboot recovery" command, to do this you need to first enable developer options, then connect the cable from the pc to the phone and type that command, once in recovery, you should see android lying down with an exclamation mark, press volume up + power, or volume down + power, can't remember which one, basically you want to see a bunch of options on the screen, once you see them, using the volume keys to navigate through the options and power button to select the option, select the sideload option and type "adb sideload <nameOfFile.zip>" it will take a few minutes to finish, just let it run...
I'm assuming you know the basics for using adb some youtube videos will tell you more if you needed.

When will beta 9.0 come out ?

Hey There...
Does anyone knows when will beta version of EMUI 9.0 be available globally. They said it would be in July if anyone knows exact date ?
Any help would be appreciated
I bet they have silently cancelled it, there was a beta project in my country, I was approved, but never received the ota, it is now gone from the beta app.
Pretty disappointed tbh, Huawei and Honor just lost yet another customer

But some recent news on internet are even confirming EMUI 9.1 for our device. How could they cancel 9.0 and confirm 9.1. Maybe they are upgrading the device directly to 9.1 that's why they removed the 9.0 Update from FUT

There seem to be some updates for your model on Firmware Finder, if you're willing to tinker with it you can give HuRUpdater a try. Personally, I just wanted emui 9 to move to newer openkirin releases.

np, I got pretty worried when I got the bootloop, thinking that the update to emui 9.1 was somehow "incomplete".
Btw under RR the device is seen as "Kirin Treble" and not Honor 7X, but from what I can tell everything works fine. Do you also have the European model?
