[Petition] Android Kit Kat MIUI 6 for Xiaomi Mi2/S

Hello everybody.
We know that we will never know how long a smartphone company will keep our phones updated, and the choice is so difficult.
Every company firstly think about market, money and leaving smartphones without updates or with updates "killer", so we are forced to buy a new phone.
We know about planned obsolescence.
But mabye we can do something.
We can try to ask.
So now I ask you everybody to help us in a petition, hoping that's useful.
Any sign will be a lot appreciated.
Thank you.
Here's the link to the petition:

But xiaomi say only about mi2/mi2s. Other model i think get update.

Signed, I agree with you guys!
We need drivers update for recent Android releases, Mi2/S still has a powerful hw, Xiaomi must be aware that android base support is important at least as much as MIUI framework development.

Already signed.

Can we have a link to the official, original statement? is it this? --> http://weibo.com/foxtailmiui

xiaomi officially announced that mi2 will get miui6 update, but it will be based on android 4.1, not 4.4.

Android 7.0 Nougat
Hello, Honor is committed to delivering Android updates in a timely manner. Honor 8 will be upgraded to Android N but timing has not been determined.
We are excited about the potential of the pending Android 7.0 update, and look forward to sharing more information once Google clarifies timing for general availability. Please be patient. (NS)

looking forward to it

My hint is they will release a small update for 6.0.1 first (camera and RAM management?) and probably after November the NG7.0 or 7.1 as Google Pixel is about to be released with that version.

My guess is the first quarter of 2017 for the H8, hopefully sooner but i doubt it. It could be worse though: the OnePLus X got Marshmellow today

If it is already running on EMUI 4.1, then it is less likely to get another update.
It will get EMUI 5 by Feb.

Android 10 release date confirmed!

https://www.phonearena.com/news/Android-10-release-date-confirmed-official-Pixel_id118451
As posted in the link above, Android 10 is set to launch on September 3rd.
As far as i am aware, manufacturers have to configure the Android 10 so it works optimally with their devices. And this process takes time to complete.
Does anyone rember how long it took to get Pie, when it was released for our device ? Thanks

Regarding Pie release: The first post in here appeared around November, while Pie itself was released around August. So it took roughly 4 months.

I am (was) in the Pie beta testing group and if I remember correctly, I got the upgrade around November indeed.

According to a Xiaomi Online Support attendant, 10 will start rolling out in UK this week.

When it's about updates, online supports often says what we want to hear
So wait and see...

It'll probably come at January.
But as always, expect wave of android Q custom ROMs faster than stock release

No! It shouldnt be january!
Mi A2 Lite has pure Android.
- No Bloatware
- No UI
Plus our device supports Project Treble. They used this feature with Pie update. Our device's drivers didnt updated since 2018 because of the Project Treble they dont need to update those. But it will be good if they do.
There is nothing to be hard.

The hard thing is that xiaomi has problem with our vendor, that's why we don't see fully working custom versions of Android Q , the only way is flashing a gsi version , or Android 10 with custom vendor , so... they have big problem , mi a3 has the same problem , that's why the device is still on PIE (they have promised that the Q update for A3 will come in the end of October)
So... we'll see , miui 11 is still PIE too... so maybe the problem is not that small

Since pie builds with custom vendor is in user opinion "more bugged than with sock vendor" I don't if there is sense to make custom ROMs with custom vendor if users days it more bugged than stock vendor, otherwise I'm still trying to build superior q, of course with custom vendor

Nope. Except maybe a new firmware but that too doesn't matter now.

Some news from the forum. As per a moderator, it may be released around July. Note that HAppybuddhist is a trusted moderator and was somewhat coy yet accurate when saying that we would get MIUI11 and Q and that we may receive 12, But just my opinion it may rollout by end of July or right around 1st week of August.

Hey guys,
I am considering the X2 Pro. I have a mate 20 pro just now. How are oppo for updates? Will the camera be an improvement over what I have. The phone looks good. Wireless charging will be a miss but I can live without it

Good so far! I've had the phone around a a week and had 2 software updates and currently sitting at the May security patch.
Others on here are on the June Security Patch too so Oppo seem pretty good so far! [emoji4]

Do they jump by 1 - meaning the version prior to A.25 was A.24? When I'm some behind!
Should the updates not automatically appear in the phone or?

You can actually download oppo's roms here:

Some countries are outdated, you can also try with any VPN you are comfortable with , I use expressVPN myself.

Having a real quick look, if anyone is after the latest update with June Security patch then it's available for download if you choose 'India'.

Thank you so much that actually worked, but the version that came up is A.24, is there an A.25?

I got my phone from vodafone this week and the software was CPH2025VF_11_A.12 with saftypatch from 5th march 2020. Today the update CPH2025VF_11_A.26 appeard with safetypatch from 5th may 2020.

I had the Mate 20 Pro before this too. Not sure if camera is an improvement as not really had chance to check it out (but I know the M20P had a fantastic camera, and I'm assuming FX2P will be at least as good from reviews). If you happy with M20P, then might be worth hanging on to it for a bit - I only swapped as wanted the 5g capability and larger capacity

The numbers don't actually mean anything, it's just randomly numbering the versions in their respective regions and doesn't necessarily mean that .25 is newer and/or more advanced than .24.
I'm in the Czech republic and had .18 as the most recent one, had to change to Germany with VPN to receive June's .24.
