Can anyone compile a custom recovery for mi4i, eagerly waiting for an aosp rom.
Yup.. I'm waiting for the recovery and other stuff.. It's really itching me to use the MIUI..
Hopefully someone thrown light on this
It is almost 20 days of launching the device.. But no developers throwing light on rooting and custom recovery.
The devs cant do anything until Xiaomi release the developer rom for our device. Then rooting would be as simple as checking a box that says "Root permission"

Bro TWRP for Mi 4i is already there in Development section.. download the exe and u can root and install recovery from it

I have been waiting for a long time assuming some developer might take up development for Xiaomi Mi-ONE phone which ships with MIUI ROM as stock, with recovery that can let you boot into two different partitions for flashing an updated ROM when you need etc.
However, there seems to be absolutely no interest in developing for this phone, even after the sources are out ! I bought this phone hoping I can make good use of the "unlocked from factory " ecosystem. The phone has a recovery, but it can flash only an update.zip file which means i can only update the OS with a newer MIUI version that releases every week. Other than that, there is no custom kernel/recovery that i can use with this phone, simply because there is nothing developed yet.
Having a custom recovery would help people flash MODS like beatsaudio apks & libs, framework mods etc . I somehow like this phone even with all this handicap of custom recovery not being available yet, but hope some one starts a development effort for this beast of a phone and help ppl like me
I would myself try and help in whatever way i can for the development of this phone, but since i have never tried any development activity for a phone, i am at sea !!
Esteemed developers, plz help !!

My mi-one is awaiting.collection at the post office, so keep on eye on miui-au

And the reason there is no custom kernel/recovery/rom is because no source is available. The rom is not open source (only a few apps are), and no kernel source has.ever.been made public (which is against gpl, i know, but its the truth)

well its good then.. i ll keep an tab on miui-au Thanks for the info.
I heard MIUI is actually built on CM9 base. So could it be possible to take AOSP CM9 kernel source and tweak it for MI-One ? I guess most of the hardware is similar between Nexus S & Mi-One, except for some specific functionality. May be i should give it a try .. do you hav any suggestions ? I basically hate the stock recovery which comes with this phone, coz it allows me to flash only update.zip and not any other zip file unlike the awesome CWM recovery !!!
And you most likely won't many developers are not happy about what the Dev of MIUI did by taking the code of another developer making it closed source and then selling it. Not to mention there are things that are legal in China that are not in the rest of the world. With a huge China government backing backing it makes many people avoid it.

The mi-one is more similar to the htc sensation than anything else, but no, without device specific stuff from xiaomi its just not gonna happen. I might try sometime if i can do it just via ramdisk mods but i doubt it (wouldnt hold your breath).
As for the comment about taking stuff and selling it, that was hardly the case. CM was used as a base for ports, but the mi-one rom (which is the only one thats "sold") is xiaomi code. The only thing theyve done which is a violation of other developers is not releasing the kernel source.
Can anyone help me? Please!
I've been researching bout Rooting and Custom Roms for months and I've rooted my phone successfully just last week and been enjoying it BUT I'm really obsessed of having Custom Roms specifically MIUI V5!
And that's the problem, it seems my device don't support custom roms. Mybe its not compatible. I've been searching for CustomRoms for this Device for weeks and I dont even sleep sometimes cuz I really want to have that ROM yet I CANT FIND ANYTHING.
I've been trying to flash other roms like MIUIV5 for CherryMobile Flare or CM Skyfire 2.0 (cuz I think they're closely related) but no matter how many times I try to use the CWM Recovery, ROM Manager or TWRP, it still won't flash that ROM. Cuz maybe they're not compatible with this device.
CAN ANYONE HELP ME?? PLEASE? CAN ANYONE MAKE MIUI ROM COMPATIBLE WITH MY DEVICE? I REALLY WANT TO HAVE THAT ROM!
Any help would be much appreciated!

Maximum of the bugs are fixed in the V4 build of this ROM. But do not use the auto installer. It will only work for A500CG not for a501cg. Use adb to flash the ROM.
Theme Will work by flashing fixsdcardboot.img.
And need to unlock Boot loader first to flash images.
And you need to root it manually with zenfone root kit.
I have solutions for battery problems even.
I Don't know whether posting links out of XDA is allowed or not even whether am allowed to solve this problem where I found many haggling with it. But unfortunately am unable to reply in there. If XDA developers allow me, am happy to help. I am running it successfully.

Hey I don't know how to install Cm 12.1 to my Zenfone 5 running lollipop 5.0 rooted by doing the manual zenfone root kit. But since I'm newbie, I don't know how to Flash? Because I never try to flash that's why I'm scared to lose my phone. But I want to upgrade it into Cm 12.1
Actually was wondering and searched for so many sd 615 smartphones out there which have original official development ...
one of the sd 615 running phone is Yu Yureka in india ....
for any porter or developer active here can you please check out if those roms can be ported for our device i.e MI4I ?
very much excited to try out new roms ...

To be honest
We use tomato as reference for our device tree...
What do you mean of "original official development"
The rom being official bcuz they have official maintainer for that rom
But at the end... The tree is same,
The conclusion is..
If device a have stable tree ,but they don't make it official for rom a
Is it still called stable?
Or if device a have stable tree, and their tree approved at rom b
Is it called stable?
It's still same right?
"for any porter or developer active here can you please check out if those roms can be ported for our device i.e MI4I ?"
You can build it from source
Which rom you like... And compile it,voila yougot the same rom...

i don't have that much knowledge about all that , but i have heard about the same chipset roms can be ported so that's why i asked for a reference from someone here ...
sad to know that we don't have development for MI4i even though it is such a good device ...

Actually i asked for ports if that can be done from Yureka ..
And ultimately my need is few good custom roms nothing else ... Maybe many others are also looking for custom roms for mi4i .
Well question aside , which kernel would you suggest for good battery backup on XOSP ? I am using XOSP since last Night .. , i dont do gaming or hard multitasking .. Just need good battery backup .. Any kernel which u'll suggest ?

i recommend you to use latest rom...

stock one is good on any rom 2016-10-06++

As a owner mi 4i ,I am very disappointed with this device.If there was or is no devs for this device ,I will smash mi4i on the wall.. Lol.FYI ,devs in here had done very good job for our mi 4i.They are the main reason that I still have mi 4i.The main problem of mi 4i is heating problem for snap. 615(Idk why other phones with same chipset don't have that much problem) or maybe there is some kind of hardware bug .So devs can't do nothing about this.
You can't demand any development from devs.
Did you try all ROMs available here?I am using cm 13 with sensei kernel.Lag free ,good battery backup.
Be thankful to devs for their hardwork for our device.

Sir,I have used latest miui.Battery back up is somehow good but when multitasking,it is going crazy...
I have one question ,why every custom rom here is based on 6.6.10?Is there was any advantage of basing on that version ?
I just want to request all the developers to please develop more Roms for mi4i.. please don't abandon this poor device...
I don't know what happened to the developers. Especially about the Redmi 7. This device has been released for 6-7 months but no official ROM has been seen so far. All that is getting unofficial or GSI ROM. Can't we get the official ROM?

Usually, the way it works is, only devices that developers actually own get custom ROMs. If there are no ROMs for your device it is probably because there are no developers that own a device like yours.
You'll probably get a custom ROM faster if you learn to build one yourself or if you buy another device like yours and donate it to a developer to build your ROM and pay the developer to build the ROM.
Other than that, you're on your own until a developer decides to buy a device like yours and build ROMs for it.(if a developer ever chooses a device like yours)
