Paranoid Android for Umidigi

Hi guys,
Looking at how Umidigi is growing rapidly and with each new phone release, boundaries are bound to be pushed. The slew of smartphones released under Umidigi are all very promising. Therefore, I would like to see more custom ROM being made for it. Personally, I've been considering doing a Paranoid Android port for Umidigi phone. At this stage, it's just an idea because there are several factors that will affect the outcome.
1. If I am to start building custom ROMs for Umidigi phone (which model), obviously I'd have to get one
2. Which custom ROM the community would like to have the most

hello and welcome to this tread, i think z/zpro it's a good idea to port ,only camera lib are differents. i prefer lineageos personally.

Hi, Personally I would prefer AICP if possible.

For me it would be nice RR

AICP
LineageOS
ResurrectionRemix
===
Depending on your taste.

I just want different roms I'm really bored of the standard one, I would love to get LineageOS

Paranoid Android or LineageOs

Hi thanks, I would like AICP.

doesnt matter, everything is better than the stock rom crap.

Hey all, based on the current feedback seems like the favourite bunch includes:-
1. LineageOS
2. AICP
3. RR
4. Paranoid Android
But its still early days. Keep the vote coming! Meanwhile, I'll try to get myself the device so I can work on it.

I have already tried some ROMs with my other devices and LineageOS is for me the best choice.
ResurrectionRemix is the second choice for me.

I'm happy with anything that moves this phone forward ?
Rooted a must option

Thanks for all the feedback and looks like Lineage OS is the hot favourite. Don't just stop here. Keep your opinion coming and don't forget to vote.
P/S: good news coming soon

Any other ROM would be better than official crap. But I've a question: until now there is no other ROM for this device because Mediatek hasn't released source code for X27 so, how are you going to solve this?

Hi guys, I've created the first build of Lineage OS 14.1 for Umidigi Z. It can be found in my other thread @ https://forum.xda-developers.com/umi-z/development/unofficial-lineageos-14-1-umidigi-z-t3639453
Be warned that this build is not tested because I do not have the device and it is created based on the best of my knowledge. I'm well aware that there will be plenty of bugs and issues. Feel free to reply to that thread.

Looks like he had the Z not the Z pro in mind Stock rom is so limited it's untrue

The problem in releasing source code is umi.. Since other brands with same hardware get sources... Like elephone, vernee... Good example is umi super and elephone p9000 use almost same hardware helio p10 mediatek umi no source code but elephone 18 months ago allready?

Resurrection Remix for its possibilities of personalization

Is there anything new?
I have the impression that there is no really working Custom ROM for the Z Pro.

Sorry, there is nothing working at the moment. Also, take note that my effort of porting a custom rom is for UMi Z and not UMi Z Pro at the moment. But I guess the two devices are not too dissimilar though.

mix 2s official lineage os??

since snapdragon 845 and xiaomi sources are out , anyone is able to build official los for this blazing good device? i really like the high quality of los code and stock feeling
treble rom are not stable and not optimized
need official work.. even mix and mix 2 have los official

It's crazy to me that there hasn't even been an early build of any ROM. I'm a little worried that the number of developers who own this device is pretty small.

https://review.lineageos.org/#/q/polaris

There are developers working on it, please be patient. Treble rom has minor problems, and I'm also waiting for official release

Hello, is there any progress with official los for mix2s?

Lineage OS 17.1 for Mi Note 10

Hi
I was just wondering is there any development of Lineage OS going on ? Or the source code was not released yet ? I was using that system on my another phones,
Here is review for POCO version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rvKmSetMHKQ

There are some efforts for building from source and via GSI and overlay. Sourcebuilds are not booting for now. But me and some others are still on it (while I lack the spare time atm)
For now you can use GSI with some bugs as far as I know.

I had mixed success with sourcebuild - see here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/building-lineageos-17-1-from-source.4245417/

AOSP custom rom?!!

Note 10 must be the only terminal that does not have custom ROMs. This is maddening and very sad. Mi 10 and even the Mi note 10 lite has aosp. What is the problem with this terminal? .. help !!!

Lack of developers. Currently I think there is only one developer working on this device...

Soon maybe, we have working LOS 17.1 with working camera and that is a big step forward
what not working is ADB, Fingerprint

Thank you for sharing the links , many maintainers have stopped publishing it on XDA . All ROMs are done with the intent of running smoothly , helping old SKUs like whyred work. However you will need to decide which one you feel comfortable with . I try out all ROMs and then settle with one after using it for a day or two . The challenge sometimes is when you set up payment and banking apps , one will need to sign in an set them up again , but its fun.

Latest A13 Cherish OS Official ROM available here - , I did not see the maintainer's thread hence posting it in the discussions group.

Thanks for your reply and contribution!
I don't use payment by phone so not a problem. About banking apps they could malfunction even if i don't root?
So after you tried various ROMs you can suggest the one you had better experience for RN5 Pro?

Commenting which one is better would again be unfair to the devs, but it all depends on a lot of things , if you are a minimalist then the Lineage OS 18.1 which is being updated by Sunil, should be good , if you want the entire range of apps and goodies then SparkOS, Cherish, PE and other which include Gapps , if you want A13 and without Gapps you got versions as well. With RN5 pro being released nearly 5 years ago you will get the occasional stutter , freezes and battery drain issues with most of the ROMs. Moving forward I will lean towards LOS 18.1 knowing atleast the security patches are being updated and you can sideload google dialer/ message for RCS and spam filtering.

Alphadroid A13 1.0 Official For Redmi Note 5 Pro : https://bit.ly/3XF1bqm

The problem with many of these roms is that they will not be updated for a long time.
look at pixel, its developer released the first stable version, and now they have removed it from the official website.
The sparkos rom, there is no thread in this subforum of that rom, it's weird, it seems that it is not going quite fine.

That's why I've put up this thread , so folks can share scattered pieces of info on which ever ROM gets updated since there might not be an official update in the forum

Because it's an old phone and difficult to find active maintainers, but there are still developers (see the latest unofficial roms).

There is also a good Telegram channel with other A13 roms listed both ufficial and unofficial: @whyredupdates

yes, but I value stable and updated roms at least once a month.
that's why I like lineage.
I have no use for a rom that after 2 months, is not updated.

I think unofficial LOS 18.1 is good to go as a daily driver especially with a 4 gb memory, Security patch being updated on a regular basis. I have reduced the number of apps and access them only through desktop . This also helps reduce notifications and extends standby.

But LineageOS 18.1 has not been updated since October 24, 2022.
Seba said that he will release LineageOS 20 for whyred in Q1 23, but nothing so far.
