I hate to be first to ask this on here because its such noob and annoying question but when will we get first Android O roms? (not talking about official stock rom aka oxygen OS) as google released today Android O developer preview
We don't. Previews are for google devices.
The March release is an "N" beta version - "Android 7.1.2 Public Beta 2 Build: NPG47I"

this. please close thread
Not soon. Custom ROMs will be there a few days after the "O" is officially released. Forget about dev previews.

Please don't ask questions like this... O isn't even final yet until it's officially released and uploaded to AOSP you wont see it till August or later So back end of this year first roms will appear
You know its a stupid and annoying question by yourself. So why you ask....?
@SynisterWolf Please close this thread.

are you alright?
Someone might try it, who knows. It's better to wait for an Official though.
Soon, very soon. In January 2018 or the fastest, in december 2017. Don't hold you breath, it's dangerous.
Just correcting my earlier post . From https://developer.android.com/preview/overview.html
"The O Developer Preview runs from 21 March 2017 until the final Android O public release to AOSP and OEMs, planned for Q3 2017."
Lol. Yes it's always exciting to have a new version bump every year. I love how they do the grout previews so early for us to test for bugs and comparability. Were at the point me where we are going to have mostly refinements and a few more custom ROM features slowly coming in. I really enjoy Android and it's open nature. Android o hopefully will come to the op3 but let's be honest are you still going to have this phone that long from now? Not me I'm selling and using to the one plus 5. Hell probrably only lose$150... Love this phone and what this company is doing. Updates are being taken seriously as well.

Update 2 - The source has now been released on Github !! Here it is -
https://github.com/MiCode/H1S_kernel
Enjoy and Happy New Year
Update 1 - Donovan Sung, kernel development head of Xiaomi has himself confirmed on MIUI forum that he's going to release the sources on 31st December 2014.. So guys rejoice, bugless Lollipop isn't far away !!
Guys.. Today I have got good news for you all... A friend of mine emailed Xiaomi Kernel Development head asking when they are going to release the source code for the public !! This was the reply he got from him ( See attached image )
that is a good news! its better late than never. but I guess for a device like this, pushing kernel source while releasing the product is very very imp. It limits its true power. due to this restriction cm12 development is getting seriously delayed.
and the weird thing is, my old device huawei y300 is getting cm12 nightly as early as 1st week of dec. The build is ready and almost everything is working. only some minor bugs, which will be polished. and here devs are working hard to get the primary source ready. its a real pity!
It is really a very good news.It may also happens that our redmi will enter into the android one device list that earlier told by hugo bara.:highfive:
Can you post more details? Maybe show the full email sent by your friend?
That's the complete mail. 1st one for Hugo Barra. And 2nd one was the forwarded mail.

Glad to see at least it will be released [emoji3]
i spammed a lot in miui forum about this...finally found it win
Dreaming to get a Custom kernel
Early Q1 could be two months from now (at least), I wouldn't call it a win, it's really really late. Also, this is a private email not an official announcement, I'm sorry but I don't really trust them. They could be answering that in the email so they don't get more requests to release kernel sources in a while. I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with Xiaomi, each day they remind me a little bit more to Huawei...

Bro.. Its better late than never !! And they will surely release it.. Same was the case with Mi2, they released the kernel source of this device after 9-10 months of release but they did release it !! Redmi 1S was released in May, so you can expect the kernel source to released by February !!
Coming from a mi3 user...ppl in our forum are really pissed with unavailability of the sources till date...we have received many such egs from mr Barra(he'll release in a week or so)but nothing has happened....hope it's for real this time
Wow bro
Hats off
Can't wait xP

not really... Buy as told by barra earlier.... i am sure they gonna release it by Jan 2015 for sure...
I am sorry if you guys find this inappropriate. But could someone port Android N preview over to the Nexus 7 2013. Google will anyway abandon updates this year. Just a request. Thanks!
It just came out. Don't expect any roms until google releases the full source code of final build. Even after that it will take atleast a month. So, the first roms will probably appear sometime after October.
Hi guys,
because this is one of the most asked questions, I wanted to keep this thread with the most actual information.

Hi,
That answer was written by me. Until now that's all what we know but hopefully it can be released much sooner. Unfortunately, nothing is certain yet.
We'll inform the community as soon as we can promise at least an approximate release date.

So I guess you work directly for UMI as a software engineer or community manager?

Yes, communication and a bit of marketing. Sorry but you cannot expect engineers to pop up here.

I have not seen many UMI brand phones which have released source codes, but I was wondering if you have any plans of releasing the kernel sources and/or full sources for this device.
I am looking to buy this phone, but I would like to be able to compile my own kernel and ROM for the devices I own
dont be waiting for nougat.i have a z3+ with nougat and in android N everything is worse than mm
The new Ulefone Gemini Pro was presented last week on MWC 2017.
http://www.stuff.tv/my/features/ulefone-gemini-pro-almost-carbon-copy-iphone-7-plus
This phone also has a X27 SoC, but it is already running Android 7.0.
So Mediatek released Nougat-drivers for X27 a few weeks ago to Ulefone.

This makes me sad.
Well its quite possible some dev could work some magic , bet the main boards are not too different from a reference board by mediatek , umi spec has well known components for screen and camera so possible to hack a port from same soc or even just tweak a few drivers and swap kernal ...we need a dev
Are there any sources out?

Not from UMI, there are phones with mtek socs running nougat , there seems to be phones with other components the same running nougat. So the ingredients are out, problem is cooking this into a working ROM would be a big job.
I recall when mm came out my HTC had a hacked together version that worked quite well, but the source for loli was out so there was a starting point.
Linage os would clearly be the place to start , find a mtek soc based ROM an hack I guess, beyond me , but someone who understands could prob work something

I hope they release soon so we can get you a customized rom, because the original is leaving to be desired, its customization is very bad. Congratulations to all programmers who are interested in customizing a rom for our Z.
Looks like it won't be too long now till 7 beta ....
Waiting anxiously ....

Someone have an internal info about ETA?

Theoretically it will be released in January or February but nothing confirmed from LG. It probably takes so much time because Android 8.0 treble support is not as good as 8.1 so they have to rework it.
I made a conversation with "UK" Xiaomi support, and they said "We also don't know the release date either but we hope it will come around early/before 2020"
And I know that someone published android 10 update will come this week/month etc, but it won't. This release date could be true for Mi A3(even they said it will come like in October).
Please and please do not ask questions about this, other news are completely wrong, please believe me. If you are a member of Telegram, you can see my screenshot also.

So you want us to believe you ( a totally anonymous poster on the internet) over other totally anonymous posters on the internet? Is that what you're saying?
well, its aaallll just rabble anyway. nobody knows yet.
i contacted uk xiaomi helpdesk, person there swore its due in 2 weeks max, that was 3 weeks ago
it comes when it comes. there are good a10 roms here that works good after some tweaking. i use gsi version as a daily driver for weeks now.
Well so far I'm the only one who's been right ? so believe me fellow anonymous strangers
Miui 11 update came last week on my other device and it has almost every Android 10 features...
Come on it shouldnt be hard. Even their heavy bloated miui phones took Android 10 update. Our phone is pure Android. It shouldnt take much time.

Yeah but they don't really like maintaining their AndroidOne devices I suppose.
