Android P for MI 6

Hi, anyone heard anything about Android P beta for MI6 ? Would it be provided as a custom rom before (if) it's available from Xiaomi?
cheers!

Yea probably. I asked because it's officialy available for Xiaomi MI Mix 2s --> not sure as how the Xiaomi ecosystem works - these might be compatible ? https://developer.android.com/preview/devices/
cheers!

Probably Mix2S is Treble enabled by default?

I hope that someone will port the mi2s's beta to our mi6!
I'm starting to feel backward...

Mix 2s has treble so they just used the generic system image of P which had been out for a while.
Basically nothing special for a treble device.
It doesn't seem to boot on our treble port from Nils or Verevka so idk what's different about it.
Eh.
We will probably get LOS P in the future but for now we only just got Oreo and P is way off being a full release.

Having closely watched the LOS development for a year, I think it's gonna take a while for LOS in P to be as stable as current LOS in Oreo. And regression bug can still keep coming, regardless how mature it is.

Hi All,
thanks for your replies and input into this thread. I appreciate it, and hope, we will get some Android P
have a nice day!

Mi Mix2s Android P Beta is not a GSI. It's a specific image for that system. If it was a GSI then would we able to use it already on our Mi6.

I wan't all the goodies available when it comes to the google assistant, my take is, the new assistant features like calling a hair salon will be available on P first.
I also like the suble changes in design that come with each iteration of android.

No it's not a GSI rom, it's device specific P rom for mix 2s

Xiaomi Mi8 Lite Pie Update ( unofficial news )

Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite Android 9 Pie update :
Android 9 Pie update expected in Q1 2019
Beta version may roll out before the end of 2018
As already pointed out, Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite comes preinstalled with Oreo 8.1 and thus is entitled to an update to Android 9 Pie, probably the one and only OS upgrade the device will ever see. Xiaomi hasn’t said it publicly, but we expect a beta version to roll out before the end of 2018 followed by a stable released later in Q1 2019.
Of course, the stable Pie update will have MIUI 10 running on top.

Hello,
Global beta ROM is now officialy available, according to this article the beta version 8.12.13 is under android pie https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-8-lite-android-pie-beta-china/?nocache=1
Even if it says that you need bootloader unlocked, I checked on the official website and saw it was available as a global version, here's the link http://en.miui.com/download-346.html#552 (and if you want, here's the changelog http://en.miui.com/thread-4885974-1-1.html)
Since I only have my mi 8 lite in a few days (tomorrow hopefully), I could not test it myself, if nobody does before I'll confirm as soon as possible
Tell me if I'm making any mistake
Have a nice day

January update

Has anyone received the January update? Or have any indication when we'll receive it?

I think no one recieved that.
But i guess we will get it 2 weeks later

The only way I'm updateing is if it activtes the lte for me besides that I'm on pie.just waiting for a stable twrp or equivalent recovery option

any chance that this will fix the wifi issues with pie on the a2 lite do you think?
e.g. slow wifi when bluetooth is also on.

If you flash via fastboot the aboot.img from the, for example, 9.6.4.0 update, you can use the Oreo TWRP in Pie without any problem but I think that someone in the official TWRP thread has a custom fix for Pie.

Because it's android one phone

The A1 had the January update first because Xiaomi messed up its LTE bands, so they had to prioritize it.
With respect to the pure Android/MIUI controversy, this is an Android One phone, I don't understand why there are so many people asking for a MIUI port. I bought it exactly because it doesn't have any bull**** on top of Android.

Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite | MIUI Global Beta gets Pie!

Hello! i have Good News, People in the MIUI Global Beta Program are getting Android 9.0 Pie!
What I have noticed currently:
The Space Between the Apps and Notch has disappeared.
The "Hide-Notch" Feature doesn't use the Notch Area as a Status Bar Area Anymore now, It now completely hides the notch, only leaving the LCD Backlight.
Camera2API is still not supported.

Cool! Is it faster or has battery improvements if you noticed anything by now?

Is there an estimated release date available?

Global Beta is available officially if you want it now, as for the Stable i'm not sure when it will be released

I was really disappointed seeing Redmi Note 7 coming with Camera2 Api enabled and the 8 Lite still with it disabled. There is no excuses for that.

It has only been a day of using it, i have not seen if it has better Battery Life, the performance seems to be the same as the phone on Oreo.

Yeah, it really does suck, they didn't even enable some Camera2API features, just none of it.

If rooted, it is easy enough to add to the system/build.prop. Sure it is a PiTA, but once added, it works well. Saving in RAW mode was pretty important to me which made rooting my device well worth it. I will wait for the official release version, or an ASOP ROM when one becomes available.

Can it be installed with the "local update" method (from the Global Oreo based release) or it must be installed withc "fast boot" udpate method?

You mean stable to beta ROM?
Probably you will need to install 9.1.17 Oreo beta and then update to 9.2.15 Pie. It'll erase your data but that's it. You can do it with MIUI installer without trouble.

Any links???

Obviously that our phone is already eligible to download an official beta build, but however, our Poco F3 is the Xiaomi 11X variant, which for now I think, is not in the list.
