Hi,
I got a new lenovo P2 (P2a42) yesterday. As soon as I started it I received two OTA updates, and my phone is now at P2a42_S062_170117_ROW.
But there is no sign of nougat update for now. Is it normal ? Do I just have to wait a bit more, or is there something I could do to get it faster ?
Thanks !
It seems that nougat update is temporarily blocked by Lenovo. Maybe they are fixing bugs and we will get a newer ota soon
yeah, on the lenovo forum, the mod says, it's blocked. we will get a "new" nougat upgrade soon.
hopefully with newer security updates than february and less bugs

Hopefully they'll recognize the hidden software button overlay as a bug instead of a 'feature'
Hey everyone,
does Xiaomi push firmware updates in it's ROMs or only software updates? My bluetooth radio is quite weak, and I'm wondering if flashing official Chinese MIUI once will update some components in the phone, and then I'll go flash Lineage or something. Thanks for your input!
It's possible that they could, but nobody can say in advance.
They are now testing the android 7 update of the chinese ROM. My best guess that if they will do it, they will add it to this update with it's final release. According to their official forum you are looking to a small month of waiting. Please report back if it helped, because you did make me curious.

It's very simply. I changed my Nexus 5 because security patch wasn't update. And now, my smartphone is not update again, while a lot of phones are very very supported. I choose Xiaomi because release a lot of update and it take care of his smartphones, but this is not happening with Mi 5s. Last update was released in December. I thinks is not too strange if i'm feeling a bit messed around. They promise this update from some months

Imagine:
- You buy phone in December 2016.
- You receive Global ROM about that time, you feel happy.
- You see every month China users get new stable versions, you don't.
- Around February you lost opportunity to unlock bootloader, because you need MIUI 8.1 or above. Your ROM from December is 8.0.
- Month ago Xiaomi release Global 8.2, everybody was happy, they can unlock bootloader, but after a week ROM is deleted from Download section on official site and from OTA update.
- Week ago Xiaomi promise give you first global dev release. Yay we will be able again to unlock bootloader. And they have delay...
epilogue
- Xiaomi start release closed beta Android 7 builds for mi5s. History show us that this model for Xiaomi is ************. Global version is... I have no words.
I know that there are ways to unlock bootloader etc. But official way right now don't work for Global Stable users. This phone have almost a year and stlii no working official solution.

P.S. Good you see RU is not EU

There are so many devices from Mi, they can't work normally. And you can almost always find 2 devices from Mi with same parameters

According to the flashing guide given with the link, you can. Just have to download the file and put it inside the updater folder.

About 2 weeks and coming out ! I testing the 7.5.15 android 7.0 global beta build and it's much fast than miui 8.3 6.0.1! New fonts it's very awesome !.
Hello.
Does someone know why xiaomi mi mix 2 doesn't have support from the manufacturer ? The last update is from 01.08.2018 ,this is not an old phone,it's a flagship.Does someone know the real reason?Anybody have any news about pie ?
That's the reason I decided to go for a custom ROM. I had a Huawei P8 before mix2 and their support was a piece of s..t too. The worst about that was that there was almost no custom rom development become of Kirin.. I am glad I have SD device now because I can make decisions I couldn't before. If you want to be up to date with security updates, use a custom ROM. They are built by developers that do care about your device ?
A Miui 10.2 update is currently in the making. The China ROM already received this update like a week ago. Global Stable update should be coming soon.

I've received the OTA notification on my device, too...
Other reports came also from North America
So we might say that the rollout is happening worldwide and both Global and EU devices are affected

It's dooms day for our units if you proceed.
in that case who responds for the phone failure, the my a3 that I have no longer turns on and I am in Colombia
How will XIAOMI resolve this, I'm in Portugal, this is totally unaceptable!
Update available also on eu rom (11.0.10.0)
I can confirm the the A3 of my cousin is bricked as well (Italy). I've tried everything to try to unbrick it (official and unofficial flashing tools) but nothing really helped. The problem now is that the phone is no longer covered by the warranty and it is really unpredictable what Xiaomi will do to solve this issue.
The only possible solution is to give a free unit to everyone after a huge recall.
incredible that on 2021 a company like xiami roll out a killer update without testing it before. It have the obligation to repair damage. In reverse they will lost credibility...
They already did

Yes, it works.
Issues I found so far :-
Slow charging
Chat bubbles not working
I've received the Android 11 OTA notification on my EU rom (italian device)
update performed successfully
Received a notification of the A11 update on my EEA MI A3 today, but after the update, the touchscreen is not working anymore, multiple reboots and a factory reset through the recovery didn't seem to work. Does anyone know if it's ok to downgrade to A10?
