LuneOS November Stable Release: Eggnog Latte - Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion

A little news on the only non-Android option for the Mi A1 that I know about: https://pivotce.com/2019/10/24/luneos-october-stable-release-eggnog-latte/
Telephony doesn't work right now. The changelog indicates that they know the reason, but haven't developed a fix.
There have been all kinds of updates since the last release, but it's not ready for daily use yet.

Official news on Android P and camera quality upgrades

One of the admins on the chinese MIUI forum has posted an update today: http://www.miui.com/thread-16120068-1-1.html
Big Thanks to user @ EraserKing for translating the whole thing!
Recently Xiaomi MIX 2s fans were curious about the progress of update of camera firmware and GPU driver, and I'd like to show you the status.
1. Xiaomi MIX 2S camera firmware update
Since the publish of weibo of Lei Jun, the developers of Xiaomi camera have started optimization. The finished part:
// Copied the 5 point
optimize camera focus stability,
optimize photo night brightness and outdoor dynamic range
optimization, outdoor photo, partial photo bias Color problem
Optimize the color effect of portrait mode in indoor/outdoor scenes
Optimized video details and noise
The optimizations above have rolled separately into dev version since June 4th, and after the upgrade to 8.7.3 internal test version and the following public test version, you can see the changelog. The rest few optimizations will be rolled into recent versions separately.
2. GPU driver update
Xiaomi has acknowledged and planned this. Will be pushed together with upgrading to Android P for MIX 2S. Please don't worry! And please be patient, keep waiting
PS. Upgrading to Android P for MIX 2S is under progress with high priority, and estimated to be finished porting and start internal test in September, then public test after 4-5 weeks.
Nice to see this. But can't wait for MIUI 10 Global before

They already said, they won't work on that in the future. They want to use miui skin in future builds. P developer builds are meant for developers, to give them the opportunity to develop on a pretty cheap flagship device.

Then we are back to zero, because the main reason for trebel project is faster updates but in this case updates will arrive fast yet get hold for implementing miui system skin.

This sucks. It really kills the idea behind it if they have to customize the whole UI again.
I really hope we get a dev here that makes and maintains a stable android 9 AOSP rom for this device when the RC comes out.
Qualcomm has already released the source AFAIK so I'm sure they are already getting ready for development.
As a Chinese, I would like to say, your translation is almost okay, but there're something to correct.

Update to 10.6.0

My mix 2s was just updated to Miui 10.6.0 stable and added october security patch, as a few fixes but no mix 3 camera features can anyone truly confirm that Xiaomi is actually planning on porting them to global stable version? I've learned of updates to the beta version, is the stable version that behind in support, or are the beta versions having bugs and stability problems related to the new camera software? Thanks ?
beta are always less stable, thats why is called beta.
yes mix 3 camera feautures is one of the cool things i want..

i know what a beta is, but is the canera software buggy? Because the mix 3 camera firmware was ported a while ago, so i was expecting a stable version update by now ? or maybe i'm just to anxious ??

Anyone notice on 10.0.6... or maybe even pie for that matter.. my spotify and other apps don't stay open and consistently crash.. I have to use dual screen to keep it from closing after 3 songs.

[Mi MIX 3] MIUI 11 and Android 10

Hi, i think almost everyone here heard about the upcoming MIUI 11 update (rolling out from middle October in China). I'm pretty excited about that, but i have a question i cannot answer myself. Will the MIUI 11 come with the new OS Android 10 or will it come just as it is without OS update? I'm asking that because of two things:
1) I've read somewhere that Xiaomi already confirmed Android 10 for our device.
2) Instead the MIUI 11 Beta, avaible in China, is actually based on Android Pie
So...what are your toughts about that? Feel free to answer!

this is true for beta version, (mi-Globe / EUROM)
yes im already on MIUI 11, but it still based on Android 9 no doubt.
but the introduction of new features makes you want to use this ROM more and more (personal opinion)
system-wide dark mode still misses some notif/popup windows (its still on light)
AoD new styles are great, very artistic
they said MiShare is faster, cant feel it. but its not slow. i think it feels the same as V10
and the other features were there just before we hit MIUI 11. I guess this would benefit the stable users more.
its actually not a night and day change. you kinda appreciate those little adjustments. icons, stuff like that. not much for themes tho
its one of those regular updates that you want to jump into. and yea its kinda pretty cool.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. I'm sure i'll like it too! Just hope they'll push Android 10 before Android 11 lol. I'm okay with Pie, it works good and has a HUGE amount of apps and will support them for long time for sure. On the other hand, this device in Global version was born with Pie so...would be nice to see at least one major update. I've heard somewhere that Xiaomi launched Mi MIX 3 with Oreo in China so basically Android 10 would be the last OS update even in EU/Global version because of some strange thinking about their update politics

what's good about with Pie is that, stereo speaker mod is still working, and maybe it wont work on 10. still enjoying the mod
For now i'm not planning to mod my device, when support will be dripped, then il'll explore again the modding world
You guys surely know already but last china beta (9.10.10) is miui 11 based on A10... Not that android version makes any significant difference for the end user but well, always nice to be en par with google I guess

I've read the news on XDA. And yes, i don't care so much about android version rather that security updates but you know.. a one year device is expected to see at least two major updates xD

This is so true. I've learnt the lesson with Honor 8. They wanted to kill the device but after a lot of time and people's petition they finally released oreo. Now i'm at the first experience with Xiaomi but as i've read around they're used to update frequently their devices. Don't know so much abouth their policies about updates though, so we can say i'm just hoping that the "Two major updates" rule will be followed

It usually gets to a point when a device is dead unless community keeps it alive. And that is awesome. I actually choose my devices partly attending to their development support. I still have my old hammerhead, 5 or 6 years on, and it is running nice pie roms and surely some 10's will come. Last google firmware is marshmallow. That is really cool
Still, of course it is good and nice that a newish devices keeps being updated by OM.
In my case, more than android version I wish xiaomi updated kernel source, but that is way too far fetched I'm afraid.
Right now I'm using MIUI 11 9.10.11 beta version and it's based on Android 10. I'm on the MIX 3 Android 10 close beta group and get updated everyday. This rom is quite stable and the only bug I found is the incorrect display of RAM which has no influence on my daily using. Magisk worked perfectly and I got 68HZ display so smooth XD.
Can anybody tell me where is Mi Mix 3 ? Or Instead of Mi Mix 2 should be Mix 3 ?

You can join the beta thought Samsung member if samsung will launch it in your country. But, since we are talking about Android, you will be able to manually flash the beta even if it's not available in your countyr.
