So far, only in Chinese MHA-AL00 versions.
It will probably come to the rest of the versions soon.
guess since its a chinese brand they will release their latest greatest build in china first

On the other hand, the Chinese build has some bugs that the non-Chinese one doesn't. It's quite strange, really.

It's true about 15 days promised updates, but HTC never guarantee anything about the A9 getting updates for two years after its release, unlike the guarantee provided to the flagships. This isn't strange at all, as other manufacturers couldn't even promise that to their flagships, much less their midrange handsets (I had to say that because I keep forgetting that this awesome phone I'm carrying is not a flagship ). So while this is still less than one year after release and we *should* safely expect it, the news is something to be happy about.
As far as I remember Jason McKenzie said they will give as updates for at least 2 years. I hope for all the countries.
Hope some dev can make for international cusrom rom once it has released new version of Android N. on htc one A9

The quote I did find was about the 15-day update (in a tweet here, also quoted in many other articles about this), but nothing about a guaranteed 2-year Android update. In the mean time, HTC repeatedly came up with their statement guaranteeing that their flagship devices (M7, M8, M9, 10) will be updated for two years (and they have proven it).
So, if you've seen a 2-year update promise by HTC specifically for the A9, can you find me a link of the quote? Not that I don't believe you, but back when the A9 was released a 2-year update promise is one that I specifically was looking for, and I found none. It would give me peace of mind if I know for sure that someone did say it.
It was either in the live presentation if I remember correctly. I'll try to find a link later.

How to do it? I downloaded the RUU file for Unlocked/Developper but the installation loads then crashes after I choose to accept agreement.

Hi
I can't find a clear explanation what's the difference between the international and Chinese versions of this mate 9, all I found is that the Chinese does not come with play store installed, are there more differences? In the past like it was with the p8 the Chinese versions would update while the international roms would hardly receive any updates, is that still the case? Would the international version of the mate 9 receive updates just like the Chinese? Any other reasons it would be better to go for the Chinese version?
Thanks a lot
To be honest I would buy whatever version is sold locally, if anything to have the peace of mind of owning a device covered by warranty and not having to go back and forth with "hacks" and reflashing. That's my opinion.

I need a new phone and was looking at the mi a1 and the Mi note 3. I Decided that the mi note 3 is the best option for me. iThe ONLY problem is the lack of Global support. Do you think this is a big enough reason to not buy the mi note 3? Is v9.1.4.0 bad, or do you just want an update? What is the biggest problem with no update? is it just because its been so long, or are there actually problems with the Global Rom that was released?
any help would be great, and any suggestions for another Xiaomi device are welcome. Id love the Mi 6 but i think it is just a bit too expensive.
Thanks!
So far the most problematic issues is the lack of Band20, for LTE or 4G, some problems with notifications and ringtones...
Yes the suport is not big as A1 or a One Plus....
Apart that, is a great phone with lot of potential.

Hmmm... i actually live in Australia and dont need B20. The only band its missing for Australia is B28 but some service providers dont even use B28, so i think its not a big problem here. Do you think its a good phone to buy if i just stay on the Miui Global Rom?
Thanks
Yes we are waiting and hoping for official global room update, China room is getting updates and we have global developer leaked rom. Over all I think it is worth buying. Support is better on A1 but I think MN3 is better device. I have no regrets buying MN3 so far and I have it since December.

Here's a Australian Mi Note 3 forum, not much in it though.
https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2661021&p=3
I would go for the Xiaomi.eu roms, I have one here in Sweden and am quite satisfied. No band 20 is somewhat of a problem here though.

Do you use a custom ROM or the global ROM? I think i will still buy it.. the price is too good.
I use leaked global developer beta also MIUI.pro is very good and mokee if you like AOSP ROMs.

Oh wow thanks! i usually search whirlpool for everything but didnt think the mi note 3 would have a thread! What is the main differnece between the eu rom and global? From what ive seen EU is based on the chinese rom but is a bit buggy?
Eu ROMs have less gaps and is bit more "optimized" it have some small bags but nothing major.

Cool i will have to do some more research into them. How is the Beta? does this mean that a new Global Rom will be released in some time?
thanks for the help:good:

In my short experience there is about one eu weekly per month that is good, and better than the stables.
I am currently running the eu weekly 8.2.1 on Mi Mix, Mi Max Prime, and Mi Note 3.
Just look at the % approved for each weekly after 3 - 4 days, and don't install any with approval < 90%.
Then of course if you are looking for particular things to be implemented, or bugs to be fixed, you have to dig more.
The eu ROMs are well debloated, which is very nice.
They are really just debloated versions of the official China developer ROMs, with tweaks that suit Europe / "Western" countries.
There is a list at the beginning of the thread for each weekly.
The main discussion/controversy has been on the difference in the notation systems between Xiaiomis official China and Global.

Thanks for the advice. I also posted in that whirlpool thread and a guy told me similar things as you.. hes running EU rom in australia and said it works great. Sounds like thats the best way to go.
What is the controversy/difference youre talking about? is it to do with the notification shade?
Thanks again!
Yup 100%, just flash other Miui based ROMs, and should be golden

Your welcome.
Some think Xiaomi.eu should start using the official Global ROMs as raw material instead of the official China roms because of the better notifications.
The notifications were not working correctly for some time apparently.
I have not paid much attention to that, as the notifications aren't so important for me.
It isnt about stable build or not it is about cooked google support or not since in china google apps are banned so they dont include them in roms and when you install them manually there might be some bugs like notification delay. Also you can turn off MIUI optimization and problem solved.

My bad, corrected "stable" to "Global" in my post.
There are apparently different systems for notifications in official Global and official China.
I haven't bothered to dig into that.
I bought this device but both the lack of global support and the screen to body ratio was unfortunate for me.
Of course I was aware of that this phone wasn't bezel-less but still..
The bad thing about this phone is the small community, I can't even install a google camera or twrp completely bug free.
Otherwise is a great phone, the bezels sure could be smaller, but the phone (blue) is gorgeous, has a nice camera, awesome performance, good screen, battery...

This solves the issues with notification delay?
How's software support from the company itself? Will we get software update for security patches at least for the next 2 years?
Is their OS smooth?

I have an old Vivo V3 and still got updates of even 16mb. And the OS still feels like it is new, no lags or issues yet.
This is my 1st experience with VIVO, i bought the Nex 3 and I'm so happy witht the device.
My concern is the limited information available about this brand on the internet, hence i appreciate if VIVO users can respond about the same

Those are in official releases already. Betas are usually for updating an OS or in Samsung's case the UI. Stuff that takes massive recoding.
IMO this A11 ROM is an alpha build. OP should have released this phone with A10.

Our releases are already Beta lol... 8T is out there only 1 month, be patient, a lot of OTA will be available during the first year for add features/fixes/security your A11 rom
My 8T is running fine...however there appears to be a wide discrepancy between the various versions/builds that are out there in the wild! From my perspective Android 11 is a stable build on the 8T, and has continued to be so through 3 updates...but I can certainly understand how many, many people feel that what they currently have on their phones is a BETA, if not an Alpha build! So what is really going on here? How can my phone run great while so many others are riddled with bugs and we ALL supposedly have the same hardware (less the different RAM and Storage) and the SAME software, and yet have diametrically opposed experiences? What are we all missing here? The only thing I can point to is where these phones are actually being assembled. If my understanding is correct the one sold in India is actually manufactured, or assembled/built in India, and when you go to the OnePlus Community Forum you can read an ENDLESS stream of constant complaints from what I believe are mostly people from India! Is this the main problem here? Is the quality control lacking in India? Are the actual parts being used in India somehow sub-par in their quality? I'm not sure exactly what's going on here but if OnePLus intends to be able to continue selling phones in India, they better get their act together!
