Thanks!
That is fantastic news! Thank you.
Yes great!
Don’t worry, we’ll eventually get it. Seeing the pace of Lavender development I’m positive we’ll get it before the end of the year.
In fact there’s already an alpha version available, but it’s very unstable and cannot be used as a daily driver.
I immediately installed the latest new build on my A1 / tissot, and bricked it. Had to flash back to the 08.08 image to boot, now i get constant errors. I hope that’s only me and the image is not somehow f\*cked.
I’m curious if they will be adding more phones down the line, I only ask as I didn’t see the Mi A2/A2 Lite on the list!
Redmi Note 7 already has Android 9. I’m using it now.
Hoping for Mix 3 but nice to see the others up there
But no official Lineage support.
Rip Mido :'(
Android 9, that’s not MIUI? 😲
I hope mix 2s will be included, last builds were long time ago
I don’t really know, after flashing it restarted couple of times, then rebooted to recovery and said factory reset is needed.
It is, a new build came up yesterday
Oh so that’s fantastic, hope the builds are stable enough to a daily use, thanks!
Nope
Hopefully the MIX 3 will be supported in the future 🍀
Ahh sad times, got my hopes up there for a minute! What do you reckon to MIUI?
Same 🙁
Hope so too… Had to use third party app to get notification showing up der..
It is just the best known and most popular custom ROM out there available for widest selection of devices. You can use it Google free unlike some other ROMs like Pixel Experience, if anyone wishes to do so.
I prefer Pixel Experience and others like AOSP Extended too.
MI A2 WHEN
Sir, does your rom VoLTE?
🙁
🙁
OTAs are broken. It runs as system on root which is frankly a nightmare for OTAs atm
No whyred 🙁
When Redmi 7 came out for these ROM?
Yes, but don’t cry if there is a thermonuclear war
Go with AEX. Using as daily driver. No worries.
Currently using RR. I hope RR and AEX won’t drop mido.
Exactly.
How do you like the phone? Any issues? And what kind of case do you have on it? Seriously considering it as it’s the only one that has full band support for Canada. (that I’ve been able to see)
Many official roms already available. Try using that until lineage gets official. Even unofficial lineage by amulyax is smooth.
Not OP but I have the Mix 3 and I absolutely love it. First time I’ve really fallen in love with a phone. In Canada as well and have had no problems LTE wise.
Been having some minor Bluetooth issues but I have a feeling it’s my ROM, not the phone. Cases are pretty easy to find on AliExpress however if you get a screen protector, make sure you install it right on the bottom of the phone (no gap between the base and the protector). The cases don’t fully protect the bottom part of the phone (because it has to slide) so it leaves that part vunerable.
Overall I really reccomend it, just got a massive price drop as well so you should be able to get it for ~$520 CAD
What did you use?
10 minutes, hold on
Absolutely love this phone. I repair smartphones for a living. Refurbish them and sell them. That said, I see every phone, from old to new everyday. Comming from a S9 Plus I absolutely never regretted it. I still brag about my phone not having a notch to my friends and even my costumers and everybody loves the phone but are to scared to buy one themselves because nobody heard about Xiaomi before.
Never had any issues with the phone. The camera is excellent using gcam but even the stock app does a fine job. Battery life is not that great but I’m a real power user and with fast charge it’s easy to keep the battery alive. Oh and I mostly don’t use a case or screen protector because I’m pretty careful using my phone’s and it feels much better but I do own a silicon case and the case that comes with he phone but I only use the cases on days that I might drop the phone like when I go out and get high and drink with my homies :p
Sadly yeah, no official Linage for mido anymore but I don’t use Los anyway. RR, AEX, PE is more than enough for me and I don’t think they’re gonna drop updates for mido anytime soon. But I’m still confused that why LOS developers did that to my beloved mido (they do it for free so no pun intended :p). This device is still beast as a daily driver and day to day tasks. My phone is 2 years old now and I’m still getting 7+ hrs of SOT.
What’s Mido?
Redmi note 4 (snapdragon variant)

Other users with same issue.
Yeah, but asides Wireless Charging and the Mix 3 having more band supports, why get this phone? You could get a Mi 9 instead and if you want full display experience with a much larger battery and headphone jack you get the much cheaper Mi 9T. The Mix 3 doesn’t make any sense now unless you desperately want to stand out with the Mix 3. The design is beautiful, but very unpractical. The phone is slippery and a fingerprint magnet, so you want to use a case. Now it looks like any other phone. The Mi 9 has better specs and better support.
You could put the Mix 3 on a perfectly flat surface, the fucker would still slip away. Absolute beautiful design, but quite unpractical to use without a case.
