LuneOS on the Mi A1 - Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi everyone,
Another heads up with respect to a Mi A1 project -- one which will be of special interest to the webOS refugees among us.
The LuneOS project has just announced that the Mi A1 is their new target device. You can read all about it over at PivotCE: https://pivotce.com/2018/11/28/luneos-november-stable-release-doppio/
The LuneOS project is an effort to create an open-source webOS distribution for smartphones (and possibly other devices). It has recently received a major helping hand from LG, which has open sourced a lot of new webOS code developed for their smart TVs. That being said, LuneOS is not suitable for everyday use. There's a lot left to do and the project is run entirely by a group of volunteers who don't do timelines. So don't ask them when it will be ready!
What I really love about this decision is that they were looking for an inexpensive development device to replace the Nexus 4. That's exactly why I bought my Mi A1 -- and I think it's shaping up to be next in the line of great development targets, like the HTC HD2 and the Nexus 4. I couldn't be happier about that.

Yep, very interesting os
But can u give me link for the install tutorial
Coz i saw only for nexus phones, not for our

Bad? It's a project in development. As I mentioned, it's not suitable for everyday use and there's still a lot to do.
But the RIL and calling not working is a regression. Both used to work on the Nexus 4. The regression is likely the result of adopting a new device and the recent work to integrate with the Halium project. That's just me speculating, though.
Thanks for providing the test results. I'm looking forward to giving it a go and seeing what does and doesn't work at this point (and which of the old webOS apps I can install, etc.).

yep, i think we need some roms like web os and sailfish to port, because android is good, but any other os is better
just for new experience

Installation
Hello,
I would like to test LuneOS on my Mi A1 but don't succeed in installing it.
Which stock ROM (7.1.2, there are quite a few) do I have to flash, and where can I obtain a working TWRP bootable with this stock rom?
I'm somehow not able to boot suggested TWRP image with latest 7.1.2 stock rom, maybe you could provide some links?
By the way: Is latest stable update >>stable<< enough to make phone calls and access LTE internet already?
Thank you in advance!

Cornerstone by Onskreen just went Open Source!

Cornerstone allows you to see multiple apps running at once, like a window manager for Android.
This is some seriously cool ****. Check it out:
http://onskreen.com/cornerstone/
They have just gone Open Source and put the code on GitHub.
It's not as useful for tiny phone screens, where you need every pixel for just a single app. But for tablets -- especially the 7" and 10" sizes -- this is a huge deal. Android tablets can now actually be used for real work.
I would love to see this in CM9. So far, no official APK has been released, and it's not clear whether a deeper level of integration is required from ROM vendors. I've asked some basic questions on their Google group for Cornerstone development:
http://groups.google.com/group/cornerstone-dev
Further Info:
In order to control the screen display of other 3rd-party apps, Cornerstone does in fact make changes to the Android "/framework" code. (There are those framework changes, plus two APK packages that provide the GUI for launching and managing apps.)
This means that Cornerstone support would need to be integrated into the ROM directly. It cannot simply be installed with an APK. I'm fairly new to Android development, but it seems like it would be necessary to apply their changes to the Cyanogenmod GitHub tree and then build a new ROM for your specific device.
It would be easiest for users if the CM team if they integrated the support directly into their tree; then users would be able to choose to use the end-user APK files or simply not use them.
Any chance you could post an apk? I'm not able to build it otherwise till tomorrow or so and that sounds awesome!

Mmm I was thinking they just posted the source and was letting people just sign the apk from there. I guess I just misunderstood.

I had flash ICS 4.0.3 to a Tmobile Samsung vibrant, gs2, nexus, htc EO a lot more. finally my touchpad running ICS 4.0.4 with some WiFi and Browser issues. I guess is common because is a rough build.
. I'm going to flash ICS with cornerstone let you know how it goes...
I know this is old post...
I had a brief to using cornerstone back in the day. IT WAS AWESOME!!!
Been thinking of it ever since. So SAD that it didn't take off.

JoyOS and MeekOS

A little about me: I am no developer, but I do like to learn about programming and android related stuff.
I saw the guide for these ports on the main xda page and decided to give it a go. I havent changed anything about the roms at all. They are straight ports.
LewaOS is working pretty darn well. maybe even better than miui!
Might have to restart for data to work though.
Wipe was necessary for me to get it to boot up. I recommend it for you.
AND! you will need to flash latest gapps.
JoyOS is working, but extremely laggy in some parts. Launcher for ex.

JoyOS: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?s5lijwigou8ofn5

Have fun.
ALL credits go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623464 this guide. All I did was follow the instructions.
and the base I used, which I cannot recall right now... but it was either EB or stock CM7
Edit: check out this updated version of lewa! Thanks to rafase282!

Currently flashing the other one.
---------- Post added at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:55 PM ----------
Well the other one seems slower, also neither of them work with the new baseband. I'm still looking forward to new updates. I like the UI on both of them.

I think I'll try to update it myself to add support for the new baseband.

JoyOS
Well I just did it. I got it working with the new baseband and added a few of CM7 apps like the launcher, dspmanager, the camera, terminal, torch, and rom manager.
Here is the link if you want to try it out people. LeWa based on CM7.2 nightly with march bb support.
Awesome job with the updated lewa. Would you mind if I give credit and a link to your post/Tom in the op?

That would be fine, this is my first port ever. Not like I did much but it's a start.
I didn't try to update the other one since it was too buggy, but it might be because of the base rom maybe?
I'll give it a try. I like the status bar with those icons better anyways. I just need to learn how to port that to the LeWas rom.
Edit: Where did you get the base rom for the JoyOS? All I get is a forum where I need to register.
Good ports
Joy Os:
I noticed it was very sluggish. The camera was experiencing weird issues too. It works but the camera button doesn't show. Instead there are black boxes and its hard to explain. It makes the camera unusable. Data also doesn't work. It boots and runs without crashes so that's a start! I'm just trying to test and report as much as possible to help you out. Nice port.
Lewa Os:
SPEEED. This rom is incredible. Performs better than MIUI 2.2.25 so far. I like this a lot. Data works fine, camera works good, looks pretty nice. Good port! I like it so far. Will report back if I experience any bugs.
I'm currently working on my port, I noticed that I couldnt update the quickpic alas gallery on the rom. Also I want to deodex it.
Anyone else running this version? You need the new basebad for it.

I got got both rom bases from the links on the guide.
As for joy os, you might be on to something with the sluggishness being related to the base. Ill look into that later.
a few thing for you guys to check out on lewa : rotation animation, music player , messages is integrated with phone app ,. One thing I did notice though, no support for live wallpaper

I think support for live-wallpaper can be added easily, I just didnt add it cause I don't use them. I'm thinking on updating it soo, any problems reported that I can fix I will. Currently setting up a virtual machine with windows unless someone shows me how to edodex easily from linux.
Edit: I got support for live-wallpaper, added the default from CM7.2 also. Added Gallery3D until I solve the quickpic bug. Uploading soon.
Edit2: Some apps just forceclose, I'm going to remove them and replace them for CM ones.
Edit3: Filemanager changed to CM, camera changed to cm, priot update was working but some visual mistakes, calendar from CM added, before I coudlnt sync the calendar and it was in chinese anywyas, some other changes that scape my mind.
Should I open a new thread for this particular port?

I think the answer is not. If you want, you could install it as I have the new baseband. But if memory serves me right, support for the old baseband is broken on CM7.2 RC3 and up.
I'll open a new thread and have boths versions up I guess.

actually, I was thinking you should make a new one or take over this one. I just wanted to introduce the roms to people on the g2x forum since I hadn't seen them there.
you definitely seem to be on it as far as updates and all. as for me, I don't have much time.... I ported those roms over about a week or two ago and just now found time to share.
also, I think there might be a new version of lewa
one problem for me btw: I cannot receive calls. phone rings but options to answer do not pop. up. I'm back on miui.... I really like the speed of lewa. though.....
Anyone want to try and get an MIUI v4 port with working data going? [; I'm sure a bunch of people will love you for that.

The shield hub works fully and I don't have the nvidia controller so I use my wireless Xbox controller with a otg cable and works perfectly for the grid games.
However you don't get the built game mapping that nvidia includes but there are apps in the play store for that

Great if you have that cable, and if you didn't fork out £40 for the controller AND if you don't play your PC games remotely (oh I do) otherwise... Not much use.

I'm simply reminding people that not quite all is well. People reading that Grid works great etc, everything working great etc.
Just reminding people of the crucial part here that doesn't work.
All the countless people on XDA that chime off the "well go back to stock" phrase actually hinder development. The more people that use, report on and collaborate on something free, the better.
Exactly why MS have decided to make Windows 10 a free upgrade to normal consumers.

Well, you already used, and reported the bug. As others, its a know bug that, unless you were going to try do develop a fix yourself, which I can't imagine you were, then telling you to go back to stock doesn't affect you being "people that use, report on and collaborate" as you already done all in your power.
Unless of course you were planning on building a fix yourself, and if that's the case...and my comment made you give up and go back to stock, then you are way too easily discouraged my friend.
And wow, if you think Microsoft made Windows a free upgrade to help development your so wrong. They made it a free upgrade because SOOOO many people still run Windows 7, which means they don't have access to the Windows Store. If all those people get a free upgrade they'll all get access to the Windows Store, which means buying things which give Microsoft money. Almost like how the PS3 cost $800 to make, but was being sold for $600. Sony knew that if people had the PS3, they would buy games, controllers, accessories, PS Gold, etc. which is where they make most money. However Microsoft releasing the technical previews publically for free was to aid development, so I mean your not all wrong

[Poll][Discussion] MIUI

Hello fellow XDAers,
I am waiting for MIUI 9 to drop so we can pull that into the kitchen and cook. I am going to attempt to work with the new system, I haven't ported anything after Jellybean. So with that, I wanted to see who was on-board to potentially want to try MIUI.
Two things; One - I am not saying I am for sure going to be successful, but I will try. 2; MIUI 9 release date is expected to be end of May or early June 2017.
Feel free to have a discussion of MIUI here, I will also use this thread for small updates in regards to MIUI.
--- Small Post Update ---
MIUI 9 ?
Here is a small list of features to potentially look out for in the new version of MIUI. This is a leap forward into Nougat from MIUI 8.
Multi-window support
Quick-reply from notifications
Optimised dose mode
RAM optimization
Improved data saver
Always-on VPN
Call screening feature
Dual space feature
Dual apps
I have honestly never once run a MIUI ROM. Im not quite the flashaholic i used to be (especially now, as finicky as the v20 seems to be), but i could be game for flashing it a few times to kick the tires, see how it rolls.
Am i to understand that it does not have a home screen/app drawer for stock launcher ala iOS? it does retain androids ability to change launchers?
Is there anything "must see" on MIUI? ...not so much eye candy·· I don't care about bling so much, im all about that utility.

Hello! We have all been there with the flashaholic syndrome. It's a fortunate disease ? the V20 is a unit that is quite more finicky than most, but surely not the worst.
Initially, this will be a project starting off with the 918 and working into other variants as I relearn Android and what the new systems look like. It is a launcher that emulates that of an iOS landscape. Yes, you still have all of the ability of changing launches, etc. Must "see" would be animations, style, small 'functionality' pieces like that of the battery bar rather than a battery icon and so on.
It's more or less a eye candy piece of OS rather than something slim, although it is still smaller than a factory image. More "bloated" than a aosp rom but still functions greatly under the right environment.

I have attempted MIUI 8 but there are too many differences in the framework(MM vs N) to patch correctly. I was going to patch 9 in once it releases but if you want it you can have it.
Last time I had miui is when i ported it to the skyrocket in the jellybean era. Would love to see it again. Back when porting ROMs was simple

Collaboration is better when its on big projects. something like miui wont need a collab. Now if you do get stuck then sure ill certainly help.
Would love to have someone seriously try to get a stable Miui going. Ran it back in my old Droid X days and really enjoyed it. Good luck and I hope you can do it.

From the skyrocket era the camera was the biggest pain in the ass. Now its everything but the camera thats a pain in the ass.
Added some minor information to OP about Miui 9 itself.
I've offered testing to me2151 and I'll offer it to you too. If you need a guinea pig for testing purposes I can help out

I'm sure they're already downloading and developing new sweet custom ROMs.
Can't wait for the AOSP ROMs to surface to get rid of MIUI!
Great news for me as a MiMix2S owner!

Mee too! :highfive:
Yaaay I think with this too https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-releases-kernel-sources-for-the-xiaomi-mi-mix-2s/ we are ready to get perfectly stable ROMs
Will need a working Gcam Mod for this to be worth the switch. If you leave MIUI, you're going to lose all the dual lens stuff and camera software processing.

I imagine that would need some kind of hybrid ROM, as it's tied to MIUI resources.
Yeah, the camera part sucks so hard. I would love to ditch MIUI (although the gestures are fantastic). But one of the reasons I upgraded from a Mix 2 was to get the much improved camera. Hope they find some solution soon.
Mi6 still doesn't have a great solution. We're using the old ass port from mi a1. Maybe once the mi a2 comes out there's gonna be an improved ported version.

It's really a pain since huawei devices are getting damn near perfect ports, since I guess their camera apps aren't as closely bound to emui.
