According to Xiomi, Mi A2 lite won't get Android 10
Is it true ?
Please at least make an effort and look at other Android 10 threads on the forum before making the exact same posts as said threads.
Here's the full lowdown:
- Xiaomi have to provide Android 10 to our phone as part of the Android One program.
- We don't know when we'll get it.
- The Xiaomi support agents definitely don't either.
- It has been shown many times that the support agents either don't know about the Android One program, the concept of Xiaomi doing ROMs that aren't MIUI or even the existence of the Mi A2 Lite Vs the Mi A2 (which are separate things).
- Please for the love of any and every God, either stop asking here and the Xiaomi support about it and use a custom ROM or just sit and wait and be patient like the rest of us. Thank you.
Stop worry or ask about Android 10 guys.
I agree with the first comment.

xiaomi should fire those customer support. what's the use of having a customer support channel that doesn't provide accurate information?

I also think that having a customer support that has little knowledge about its product is leaving a bad impression to us, at least they should foward our question to someone who can help more...
Altough i am thankfull for security updates, my phone is still working great, and android 10 will come, but when, no one knows yet...
It's because the job of the customer support is to help out with base level questions about a device, and Xiaomi's support will mainly be focused on and assuming the question is about MIUI rather than anything else since that's their primary version of Android that 90% of their phones run. This level of customer support wouldn't know a single thing about unannounced device updates, primarily because this kind of information is just never divulged to them in the first place. I wouldn't be surprised if most of what they come out with is just pure guesswork because they don't actually know.

I think that's a custom ROM. No indication that's stock
Alex, those are custom roms. I checked them all.

After the confirmation from Xiaomi and seeing screenshots from Geekbench, we can say that Mi A2 lite update is in beta state and would probably be releasing update in the end of Q2 2020 (April).

What confirmation from Xiaomi? Again, the customer support don't actually know when it'll come out. Those Geekbench screenshots were for custom ROMs, not the official update.
This said, I agree that it's probably in beta and will be out in Q1.

Why not Q4 2020
Which rule forces Xiaomi for Q1? I cant see any rule for Q1.
I think Xiaomi forgot us and for the Android 10 update thing they still didnt even started to work on it.
But i have big hope for 2020 Q4. We will get Android 10 update with Mi A4’s Android 11 update.

Why would they be custom ROMs? Custom Android 10 ROMs were available since long ago for our device, why would've notebookcheck wrote an article about it just now?
We might get just a sec. patch now, but it'll be out soon, I agree on that.

I can say the truth but someone will make fake version. So its better to not know. I dont want to see fake results. Because this will cause fake hope.

Not sure what you mean... It's pretty good support here.
Sell and get a OnePlus or something more mainstream if you don't like it.
Or the tools are available for you to build your own ROMs.
XDA is here for sharing work.
You also could have checked here before buying.
No one is entitled to third party software support and we are lucky to have so many devs working on the device.
As it gets cheaper more devs will buy as well. Mi 6 is good hardware but devs can't own every device at release price.

Not sure I changed a theme and was not able to change back to default. I posted on MIUI's forum and asked for help but only one reply which didn't helped. Other questions went unanswered too. But haven't tried on xda though. I didn't liked the fact that camera api2 is not enabled by xiaomi and you know what? I learned from MIUI forum that our notification LED is RGB but is limited to white color only by xiaomi.
Oneplus is not available in my country and even if Xiaomi gets any defect, no one is gonna repair because its fairly new here and almost everyone sees my phone doesn't know Xiaomi exists. Btw once I tried to build ROM when I had Mediatek phone and oh boi, it took forever for small modifications, learning will take long time and I don't have time for it, so no I will depend on others haha. And I hope as it gets older, more ROMs will be available, hope more like stock with less bugs, stock always have more customization from xposed.
I want to buy a fone. Any suggestions how much time to recieve custom roms....
dont ask for ETA, I also ordered one Honor 7x too
When a phone is brand new with absolutely NO Roms out yet I'm pretty sure the whole "Don't ask for ETAs" rule doesn't count. Relax. Please be honest with yourself.
This device will only do good (For some people) if it gains dev support. Kirin is closed source from what I understand so development sucks when compared to Honor/Huawei devices with SD chips so inquiring minds will want to know.
I'm ready for an upgrade from my Honor 5X myself but can't pull trigger due to lack of support for 6X or 7X. Honor is good about updates but I need more control over my device (Root, hotspot, and Roms) past the 2 year update standard. I would go to xaiomi redmi unlocked but their US device lacks 1 of the LTE bands I need on AT&T.
Plus I actually really love my Honor 5x device and respect the company for their attempts to make affordable higher end device and come to XDA with so much support on launch of company. I won't for get that but I still need a device soon.

I mean, there's OpenKirin, not sure about this being closed source with kernel sources already released. It depends on which skilled dev feels like picking up this device.

I can confirm that this device is going to be officially supported by OpenKirin as soon as we can get a stable rom running on it.

Phone uses a SOC that just does not get much development in general. It's not the A70's fault per se. See Google Pixel 3a, or Xiaomi A3. Barely any development. Most roms are just half-baked, have "sleep death" and whatnot bugs.
That said, check the SD 855 for example. Same story. OnePlus 7 Pro just got official LineageOS, but if you check Xiaomi Mi 9 or Mi 9T Pro - both are dead.
The SD845 had more development going on for sure. Oh well.

Development is already underway for a70. We already have a functional twrp and the dev's are completing the source compilation to start custom rom building. Just need to fix the fp part. Will be done in a timely manner because we have some great and dedicated developers onboard.
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.

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.

Hello all!
Is anyone able to arrange a fundraiser?
Are there any devs interested in making ROMs for this phone?
Personally, I'd really like to use Vanilla ArrowOS on this device.
But I've heard that ussually LineageOS does the first build, and other teams use that as a spring board.
Not sure if that's accurate, but I'd be willing to donate 50USD or so to any team willing to take this on.
Maybe if there's enough of us we can make this worthwhile?
Does anyone have any idea how to get this going?
Yes me too id go with $50. The problem is 13Pro is too expensive.
I think @Cozzmy13 or @NeoArian is the best
I also jumped at that offer, I can donate 25USD or a little more in an ascendant way, of course, seeing evidence of progress

Didn't realise that the Xiaomi are dragging their feet releasing kernal code.
They did release the Xiaomi 13 kernal code, hopefully the 13 pro is relased (properly) soon too.

A heap of the 12 series seems to have been China only, so I specifically held out for a 13 hoping there would be plenty of custom ROMs soon enough. I didn't really realise the price would be as big of a barrier as it appears to be. Hence, the fund raising suggestion.

Let's hope this thread can push some devs over the fence when they consider getting a 13 pro.
I'm also willing to pay 100usd to support it.

It's usually the flagships from Samsung and Pixel and the beloved Poco series. As of now, the Pixel 7 Pro, S23 Ultra, Poco F1 and F4 are some of the most popular players in the development community.

Hello @AlekSeaLion,
although we allow bounty/fundraisers/donation threads under certain circumstances, we are generally discouraged. The developer must have good reputation and the thread must not started from 3rd party without him being aware of. Regardless a custom ROM is no innovative development and doesn't qualify for. Please get in contact on PM with moderators for approval first.
Furthermore we remind you, upfront donations are not permitted as per our forum rules.
XDA Developers Forum Rules
8. Donations.
As a user, you're allowed to ask for donations in your signature as a thank you for your hard work, however donations up front are not allowed. This forum is about sharing and not about getting paid to do something... that is what your job is for.

I am aware of this is strictly speaking not a crowdfunding thread but only a question about this topic. I leave this thread open for short time, in case of any remarks. The thread will silently closed within the next 48 hours.
Thank you for understanding, and have pleasant day!
