Hi,
I recently bought a few Lenovo A830s for my family and my company, and I'm interested in porting CyanogenMod 10.1 to them (and their smaller sister the A820)
I understand that we have access to some of the source code for the Mediatek kernel (github - varunchitre15/MT6589_kernel_source)
and that one of the other major sticking points is no support for dual SIMs in CM.
I was just wondering whether anyone was interested in helping me with this, and whether they had any more insights to give before I started looking into it.
If this project is successful, I think it should also be much more straightforward to port CM to other MTK 6589 devices.
Best wishes,
Tom

Hello I have buyed a a830 these days, and I have look through the git-hub sources , but I havn't find a deconfig file for a830.
Are you sure it's the kernel of a830. Could you tell me which is it's deconfig file???
Sourse for MTK6589/8125
Compile a kernel will not be easy. But already there Sourse for Lenovo S6000 (MTK6589/8125)

I started looking into this, but I found it quite tricky.
In the meantime someone ported MIUI V5 to this device, so I have been using that instead.

Ok, so this is CM from xda with mediatek kernel (ported - not compiled from source), btw - it's still kernel from 4.1. I'm going to buy nexus and say f**k you to that chinese apes. All of this is really unbelievable. There is nothing we can do.

since i dont use miui im not familiar with it from what i understood and probably im wrong.. i thought N updates werent just on coming miui 9 but also on 8.x builds..
too bad.. hope there is a good future for this great phone with updates

That update got suspended later. And its going to be suspended till August hopefully. They are planning a huge upgrade for a number of devices. Its gonna be at least MIUI 9 if not Nuget for RN4-MTK.

I'd say MIUI 9 but not nougat based (for our RN4 MTK at least). Remember Xiaomi have a tendency to update with their MIUI version/features but not update the base android version, especially likely to be the case for our MTK device since Mediatek are bad at releasing sources.
what about the threads that are floating around claiming to be the mtk x20 kernel sources for the rn4? havent really delved in, they arent released yet?
i got this phone mainly for its benchmark performance price ratio but also because i had the expectation it would have better development since its more popular than my last..
seems sad that the SD with its lesser tech has so much support and MTK seem unhelpful so were stuck on old firmwares...

I don't think we have the necessary files we need ie drivers specifically for the note 4 mtk hardware, hence the limited development. Snapdragon devices are always supported better by devs due to qualcom sharing all their sources.
It's still great phone for the money with lots of great features. If you're looking for rom development, snapdragon is the way to go though.

You probably want to start at the below thread about unlocking your boot loader and installing twrp etc. There's plenty of guides on XDA, and there's a noob Q&A thread in the Q&A section which is best to check out also and ask any questions rather than this development section.

conclusion: Expect an update/release delay at least until August 25th, 2017
Sorry, but wouldn't that be better placed in news section? If i remember xda rules right a ROM thread needs a download!

This maybe a stupid question but here goes...I really don't know how to ask this without it sounded confusing. Ok, my mi mix came with a MIUI installed, I unlocked the bootloader and rooted and have twrp installed. Now I installed Epic ROM it didn't have MIUI in the discription of the epic ROM I flashed. Do I have to flash a MIUI ROM or can I flash any ROM as long as it's for my mi mix.

When you say the description you mean... The zip file name? The MIUI version in settings?
When rooted and with unlocked bootloader and working twrp you should be able to flash any of the roms you find in this forum for Lithium, which is the code name for this device. MIUI is just the official builds of the manufacturer Xiaomi...

Question for devs, Is it possible to use source code from Redmi 4 Note with SD (code name: mido)? Hardware is quite similar and they have real strong dev community. Maybe quickest way is to use custums Roms for Redmi 4 Note, adjusted hardware differences and compile Rom for R4P?

Xiaomi doesn't release kernel source for building AOSP or CAF based rom, kernel source only work for MIUI at most. Also most proprietary vendor driver not available as sources (only blob). It's pain to build custom rom from Android fork.
Compared to Samsung, Sony, Lenovo, Oneplus etc, almost all abandoned xiaomi devices suffered same fate, the custom rom will always missing something. We were very lucky if we had such a great developer.
My previous device, redmi 1s never get update beyond kitkat, but armani-dev (especially fefifofum) were a great team, they bring mostly stable nougat release (LOS, Mokee, Slim, etc).

That would be essentially the same proccess we are now. It can be achieved though to use the tree from Mido and modify it for our device. Make a stable tree then compile

7/23 GSI RR isn't really a daily driver. Camera is not good. I tried Open Camera and it just flashed color to b&w and back. Picture quality was still poor. Bluetooth headphones don't work--audio doesn't come through. No VoLTE (of course). Probably other issues I didn't notice or forgot.

Xiaomi makes nice phones but they aren't considered development friendly. It might be a while before a few AOSP ROMs are available for the Mix 2S and there won't be as much development for this phone as for the cheaper Redmi models since those sell a lot more units.
The Mix 2 had global LTE bands out of the gate and because of that it was available on Amazon right away and was reviewed by tech sites that pointed out it was the first Xiaomi phone fully compatible with LTE in North America. There is official TWRP for the Mix 2, official Lineage and some other development although it is pretty limited.
For whatever reason Xiaomi did not do the same thing with the 2S. It initially came out with much more limited band support than the Mix 2 unless you purchased the 256G model which had global LTE support. There was also no announcement at launch that there would later be a global version so reviews in the west said the 2S was incompatible with North American LTE unless you purchased the most expensive variant and those reviews were never updated after the global model was released.
Because of this a lot fewer people (in North America at least) ended up purchasing the Mix 2S compared with the Mix 2.
The result is no official TWRP and no development so far even though the release of the Mix 3 is just around the corner.
Official LOS is apparently in development but there probably won't ever be a lot in the way of AOSP ROMs available for the 2S and the handful that are will be buggy because the devs will be auto-compiling those ROMs since they aren't likely to be using the 2S themselves.
The Mix 2S is probably never going to be a good phone to own if you don't want to run MIUI. Maybe Xiaomi's policies will change in the future but at the moment they seem to have no interest in encouraging third party development for their phones. They see themselves as competing directly with Apple rather than as an Android brand which is also the case with Samsung.

I used the official and the unofficial version found on XDA. Both worked fine for me, expect some minor flaws, some glitches as it's a work in progress.
I used it as a daily driver and for what I'm using it it's working just fine.
I'm on pixel experience now and it's really good too, will stay with it for now.
RR has lots of customizations that's where it shines. As I don't need all the features and prefer a clean AOSP near experience I switched to PE.

Yes, go to the Project Treble section of XDA. It's available there.
It works, but Bluetooth and some dedicated functions seem not working. And it is so stable, especially if you rely on Xposed and Magisk for daily use.

Bluetooth is broken on all GSI Treble ROMs for this device. The Mokee ROM posted in this forum is actually stable enough for daily driver IMO. Just make sure to follow the instructions in the thread from Hyapatia.
