Why haven't we received the July security patch yet? - Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite Questions & Answers

It's already August 4th and all the previous patches have come before the end of the month (except when COVID19 hit hard in China).
Our smartphones badly need stability improvements as Android 10 is buggy and unpolished. I'm worried that this update will fix nothing just as the majority of previous monthly patches.
Will xiaomi stop fixing things and just release security patches from now on?
Why is this update late?

Why is this update late?[/QUOTE]
I'd like to know too. All other "Android One" devices have been updated, except this one.
Xiaomi does not miss the opportunity to show disinterest in this terminal and its owners ...

Android One is dead.

Time to move on - Pixel 4a welcome!

If you have Magisk only the process is well documented. Find the Magisk thread and follow the instructions.
If you have TWRP + Magisk there is no simple process. I have a guide but you need a PC to help out and it's not trivial (but it only takes me 30 mins, including uploading new files for everyone else).
If there's a full rom you can flash that and then root it after. I haven't seen reports of a full 11.0.9.0 ROM.

I have TWRP + Magisk. Ohhh i see.
In case of full rom i will lost my existing data and cannot do every time when updates available.

You can flash a full rom without losing data. It's just that a full rom is not always released.

You can find full ROM of 11.0.9 here:

Lineage OS 15.0 Dev Thread [DISCUSSION]

Figured we should have a thread set up for discussion, has anyone started work on this? Maybe we should get a hangouts group started.
When does the development starts?
I don't know the procedure of ROM development. Are devs waiting for the oreo update from HTC?
Some devs already work on Oreo aosp, but it's not that easy to get it working on the 10 so that everything works. Maybe even stock will be earlier here than custom Roms like aosp and los

Don't really know about LOS but AOSP based is already here...

You can't start a "Dev thread" if you aren't a dev on the project; you can only start a "Nag thread".
Sorry for unqualified question. I know the new site but I don't know where to find dev threads. If you can help me I'll be glad.
My question is why do some older phones have LOS 15.0 and we don't yet. You'd assume the newer phones get priority. My old HTC M8 has a fully functional LOS 15.

That device still has an active developer working on it. crpalmer, the user who brought 14.X to HTC 10 seems to have moved on to newer devices.
hope it will have LOS15.1
Even though Raymon left development does this mean there are no los 15 for us?
As already stated by fagyi, once he solves all bugs on aosip 8.1 he will build los.
15.1 Running flawless albeit hot sometimes!
Ladies and Gentleman,
I have been lately at the lack of instruction that some of the devs have in their OP in regards to the kernel challenges with running back and forth between nougat and oreo. All I want for my recently required and gently used HTC 10 was a simple and pure rom that I can theme and run unhindered of bloat and unneccesary tweaks without having to gut the rom with titanium backup. With that said, in my constant frustration over the past two weeks I have been able to get Lineage os 15.1 running flawlessly on my device as of yesterday with everything working including the camera and tethering. The speaker volume is a bit low, but I can live with that.
To run this as with the other 8.0 rom you have to be on nougat kernel. IF you are already running Oreo- stock or otherwise, you will have to downgrade your kernel being s-off. Generally I don't pay for sunshine but since i got a great deal on this used phone i coughed up the $25 bucks to fix my phone after deciding I wanted to run modified oreo without having to read 1100 pages of posts.
Personally I have Sprint as a provider so I used a combination of OMJs kernel flashing instructions

Now I tested this rom by flashing multiple times and I could not get any version of gapps to work but then i discovered a work around that will help. But before I get there let me explain everything I did. Some steps may be unnecessary depending on where you are coming from but i think nougat kernel is a must. I did not ruu after kernel flash.
1. Flash kernel using adb.
2. Boot straight into bootloader then Wipe and then fix persist per wonders never ceases post.
I had issues with going back to nougat kernel and had to type these instructions in the twrp terminal to get my persist back:
To fix : failed to mount '/persist' (invalid argument)
Type this in twrp terminal:
make_ext4fs /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist
MAKE SURE YOU DO CLEAN WIPE all internal and format data. Fix ext4 after.
3. Resend twrp from adb.
4. Flash lineage Rom
5. Flash Magisk
6. Boot to Rom and install from Magisk G-apps systemless framework
This will not show up as being installed in magisk anymore after you install gapps. Gapps overwrites it somehow. But if you try to install gapps by itself, it will fail and crash when you boot to the rom.
7. Reboot to twrp and flash nano gapps.
8. clear cache, format data
9. profit!
Finger print scanner, Camera and everything is working. have not found any issues yet. Since I am kinda excited at getting back to LOS because i couldn't get it for my Bolt, i wanted to share with everyone else that fagyi's work is payoff.

If you are so frustrated about stuff you get for free than just stay stock and stop being frustrated.......mwuhahaha funny how the world works these days......oh and by the way, you don't downgrade your kernel, you downgrade your firmware.

I'm using that ROM build of 15.1 on my HTC 10 (Android 8.1), and it works pretty good actually. besides a few minor issues.
Unlocked Bootloader from HTCDev, Running latest TWRP Recovery, S-On (for me at least was not needed to turn this off), Latest Magisk (which seems to pass the Safetynet check) / Busybox.
I changed the Kernel afterwards to "kernel_htc_pme_aosp_tabp0le_eas_4.02-O" (from tabp0le) because it has the "performance" cpu governor that i can enable using Kernel Adiutor.
The bugs i encountered so far :
- Camera apps open slowly, except for "Open Camera" , not a big issue.
- HTC Sense Launcher doesn't seem to work, just get the famous (app has stopped) message, but maybe it's a conflict with my GAPPS installation
- Only 1 speaker works, HTC10 has Boomsound with 2 speakers on stock rom, 1 is a treble speaker, the other one is kinda like a small subwoofer for the low frequencies.
Is there any soundmod that would enable both speakers again?
There is not any mod to do that. But the dev of this ROM is working on getting the bottom speaker working.
I just saw that a new build-version is released for HTC10.

Switching from SuperSU to MagiskSU

Okay so after getting tired of safetynet and other issues Google has put on us I'm wanting to switch to magiskSU but Everytime I tried I bootloop and have to clean flash my rom. This is what I'm doing
1. Flashed unSU in twrp
2.flashed stock boot.img
3. Flashed the magisk.zip
4.got an error saying it failed to install magisk.zip
But whenever I try to reboot to system (I've tried reinstalling SuperSU and without reinstalling as well) I got a bootloop Everytime can someone instruct me or tell me what I'm doing wrong?

In Short. Currently for our device to have magisk, you need to use the boot image that @joemossjr and @Uzephi developed with Magisk support. Then install the magisk app. No zip install.
Refer to Joe's thread for the boot image at this link

I would have went into detail and used a short link, but my head is currently throbbing so this is easier lol.

I would suggest updating to November. I have a rooted magisk image, but you need to flash the decryption zip to get it to boot. If you update to November, I am going to release a flash-all type zip sometime today (after I fiddle with getting 4.4.107 upstream done) and working on a Google Pixel 2 skinned ROM for us here shortly with oem bloat completely removed

You using stock kernel? To get crypto changes in 4.4.101-103 added, it breaks encryption on our phones and will cause a boot loop due to Motorola's dirty code. Hopefully when Oreo ROM drops (since Google is kinda telling oems to stay upstreamed) it will fix those issues in our stock ROMs.

Hard to say. Those of us that have tried hard bricked the device. Not readable via USB and wouldn't boot anything after the flash.

To build off what Uzephi said. It's not that rom's wont be capable. It's just working with new things that are being implemented and changed until something starts going right. The jump to Nougat changed a lot of things with security and the switch to Oreo is changing even more that Google is wanting to push for android that inadvertently also affect security and compatibility.
This is speculation, but since they introduced Kotlin, I feel like they are trying to alter everything over the long run to become more streamline and compatible around it. Especially given they can control the progress of the script language to help them better. Which will really show true or false come mid next year.
We are lucky that Motorola sticks to a super close to stock experience because it's one less issue to deal with when playing with the new code and functions to try to get things to work. I'm really optimistic on this stuff because I like doing things that people think can't be done. So I believe that there will for sure be more customization and capabilities as we figure things out. Just takes time and effort. We worked for months and months on the S8 where people said impossible, and ended up getting it. So i have faith on this.

Motorola already admitted the Z series will not be a part of Project treble meaning we need to try different vendor files to see if builds work. Sadly the ones used for the Z1 and wahoo mixed together cause the phone to go haywire and brick itself.

And I understand that this means lack of simplicity in developing custom rom's. But it doesn't mean incapability. From what I understand as well, that treble can be implemented at a later date even though it will not be included with the initial Oreo update. You are working on a pixel rom conversion if I am correct right? Because I might have an idea...
But treble is still def exciting to think about being able to have one rom work on many different phones without modification. I honestly haven't divulged too far into it, but what are the odds of tearing apart the code and possible making support for it ourselves? I'm all for ridiculously long spans of working towards absurd goals hah

Unless Motorola can repartition the phone, Treble won't come out, it needs a vendor partition. I can say at least on my Sprint phone the OEM block is about 1.5 GB when there is only about 200 MB of data on it, so they can splice that to save user data. Only other way is to repartition /system or /userdata for the space needed for the new partition.
Yes, I am doing a pixel conversion ROM. Tried just booting the pixel /system and it didn't work. I am taking assets from the Tamien and putting them into our November update using SuperR.

I know there are few devs out there working on making it work on non treble phones. Repartitioning and adding a vendor partiion wouldn't be the issue with making it work. Rather trying to get the vendor source for drivers to add to it, and if they need to be reworked to add support. I've been off for a few months with health issues so I'm still getting back into things with oreo, but that seems to be the biggest issue at the moment that I could find.
When my health is back to 100 percent within a couple weeks I will dive into work with you and aid in any way possible for this. To me, trying to get driver source and make it work sounds fun. but we are far off topic now for this post so I'll leave this here haha.

Rooted T-800 (wifi model), looking to update to Android Nougat or Later

So I had rooted my Tab S back in 2016 or so (if you check the forums here you'll see my posts for this...). Have had that working for a while now. It tripped the Knox (I didn't personally care about this) except now I want to install a couple streaming apps on the tablet and the OS is too old to handle it
I had loaded TWRP onto the Tab S and rooted it with Lollipop stock ROM and loaded it with SuperSU. It has worked like a charm up till now, issues with Link2SD notwithstanding (I have ZERO intentions of going back to that app).
My question is: what do I need to do to install the newest possible version of Android that the tablet can take? I know it's an older tablet now but I still use it for reading and other stuff, and I'd like to keep it alive a bit longer by installing a new Android OS and ROM on it.
(aside: I did remove a bunch of stuff once I rooted it, so I am not sure how much this may interfere with any attempt to update it to a newer version of Android)
(aside #2: I never updated SuperSU through the app store as I was afraid it would break the root process, so I left that app alone and eventually it stopped showing up in my update list on google play. I'd have to check the tablet to see what version of it I have installed at present)
Funny, I just updated my Tab S this weekend. Same as you, was running into apps that no longer support older OS. I updated mine to Lineage 14.1 version. So far working fine. I know there is a newer version but after reading the threads, this version seemed to be reported as working better. Just follow the instructions in the thread to upgrade.

Do you need to update the android version to get Lineage OS installed?
No you do not. You just have to update the bootloader. Instructions are in the thread on how to as well as to have to confirm.
Hi again,
Sorry could you point me in the direction of said thread?

Cannot find the Lineage OS ROM image, I think it may have been removed from their site given the age.
Do you have a working download link for this?
Edit: please ignore post, I found it as soon as I posted this -.-

I assume I have to load the marshmallow bootloader before I do anything?

Personally I like the Resurrection Remix rom. https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...om-resurrection-remix-n-sm-t800-wifi-t3606243
Just do the standard stuff. You've got TWRP installed, so you're most of the way there. Back up whatever you want to back up, and then:
1. Wipe System, Data, Cache, and Dalvik Cache.
2. Install OS.
3. Install Magisk (if you want to use Magisk for your rooting needs. It seems to be the popular root tool now. It's pretty boss.)
4. Reboot into system, then back into recovery, and:
5. Install GApps or whatever. I like NanoDroid myself. It's the alternative to GAPPS. There are a few odd programs that just plain won't work with it yet, but the official Google apps have an annoying habit of wasting processing power on pointless background nonsense, so I prefer the alternative. Also there's an Xposed module that improves compatibility. https://nanolx.org/nanolx/nanodroid
Hmm I'll take a look at this other ROM
Currently, I have a rooted stock ROM (SuperSU ad root manager), and interested in moving to a custom ROM that is well supported
My only 2 concerns before starting are:
1) Do I need to update SuperSu
2) Do I need to update the bootloader before doing anything else (even the ROM that you suggested @FailSafeNow ? )
Anyone who was wondering what happened:
Process I used (done 2 days ago as of this post):
0) transferred all relevant files to device for the operation, backed up stuff I wanted
1) Updated bootloader to marshmallow via ODIN
2) Updated TWRP to 3.x (forgot exact version) from within TWRP
3) Wiped system + data + cache (I could have probably wiped internal memory but there wasn't much there anyways)
4) Installed Lineage OS 14.1 and Nano Gapps from within TWRP (in that order)
( full disclosure: I had wrong Gapps .zip file the first time and had to get the right one afterwards)
While I had the superSU package, I decided not to root the tablet again. I don't think I need the customization that root offers this time around especially since Lineage OS is already so lightweight compared to the stock ROM I just replaced...
Thanks all for your help!!
Over and out
Thanks all! Nice super fast tablet with amazing battery life now

I know this is a somewhat old thread. I have a T800 myself and am looking for a ROM. Want to try Lineage OS 14.1 like you have tried. Was curious as to whether you still have it and if you still liked it? If so, what version are you running now and how is your battery life compared to stock? Thanks so much! :good:

Question Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE - OFFICIAL MIUI 14 GLOBAL V14.0.2.0MIXM - ANYONE UPDATED YET ? Thread starter k500zm Start date 1 minute ago Tags

Has anyone been offered the Global version by their phone and updated ?
If Yes - what is your experience with MIUI 14 and does Dark mode work for individual apps listed separately in dark mode options?
Just received a notification for the update. Should one do a factory reset once upgraded?
EDIT: Ok, just updated and decided I'd just do a factory reset afterwards to start clean. Is it just me or do the graphics, icons and such look a little more blurry now?
Today monring i make an update, it is super. System is faster, but Leica cam app is not possible instal, have anybody newer version of leiaca cam app fo A13? THX

@thecumbackkid - Please tell me in settings - display - more dark mode options - does it list all the individual apps to choose dark mode for each app ? (it may take a second or 2 to list them)​
This is what it shows for me.
Thanks for the info thecumbackkid
Looks like its time to upgrade I was stuck on Miui 12.5 as when I updated to 13 all individual dark mode apps options disappered.
Someone stole my phone on holiday so I bought a new one and stuck on 12.5 as Dark mode for individual apps is essential for my over sensitive eyes!
I did the OTA update yesterday.
Before installation I uninstalled magisk, and reinstall it the inactive partition after update, before the reboot prompt.
Everything worked fine but be patient. The phone restart at least 5 times during boot logo. I was suspecting a boot loop but it finally started.
Everything is smooth, magisk root still work, safety net fix was kept.
For the moment the only thing which failed was a Google Keep Widget I had to remove and reinstall to home screen.
Except some little icon changes in notifications I didn't notice lot of changes but it is only after some minutes of utilisation.
Edit : password manager like Bitwarden seems to detect better than before that new password was entered.

Awful battery drain here. Charged to 100% barely did some basic browsing and half is already gone in a short amount of time. Noticed whenever I have it charged to 100% at night and by the middle of the next day where I barely use it for nothing but just to check for notifications on stuff it's already down to 80%...
AFAIK, this appears to be some pilot program build? I never asked to participate in it so how did I get this update?
Does any one know how to Facemoji keyboard in MIUI 14 for Lisa ?
I am not rooted. its plain stock MIUI.
Tried ADB shell uninstall, it gave me failure.
Also tried Xioami debloater tool. That also didnt work.
I still haven't received the update for some reason and i tried to update it manually but it didn't work what should I do
Updated to 14.0.4 EUXM and can't get root to work anymore.
Patched the boot image via Magisk 25.2 and then tested via fastboot, as always.
I run directly into a bootloop, which after a while sometimes returns to the bootloader or automatically deletes the temporary boot and boots with the normal image.
It's also strange that during the bootloop the device vibrates once every 3-5 seconds briefly. I've never had that before either.
Update:
I found a solution without wiping my device.
I remembered that I had a problem during the last update with shamiko and I didn't uninstalled magisk or removed any modules before the update. So in order to remove the modules without access to /data/adb and wihtout root rights you need to do the following, maybe it's interesting for you folks.
1. Open shell with command: "adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules"
2. Open second shell and boot with patched boot.img: "fastboot boot boot_patched.img"
The short time at boot, where root is present, was enough to remove the modules via the CLI during the boot loop.
Lessons learned:
Before the next major update definitely remove all Magisk modules before, if not root entirely.
Saves the work afterwards.
Btw:
Update is running smoothly so far. No battery drain noticed.
can anyone link me to a tutorial on how to rollback from custom rom (currently AOSPA) to stock MIUI ROM? want to move to MIUI 14 eventually. greatly appreciate it!
You can also install miui eu rom 14.0.6.0. If you first install via fastboot, it installs twrp with it. This way you can install future ota updates without using a computer/fastboot. In my opinion the eu rom is the same if not better as stock EEU global from xiaomi

hey, thanks for the reply! just a few questions, there's no possibility of triggering anti rollback right? I was reading that some ppl faced it - I moved to custom roms from MIUI 13 iirc.
also where can I find the link to the .eu ROM? thanks again!

I dont believe the Xiaomi.eu roms have a anti rollback trigger. The previous roms are all a complete package (firmware, recovery, rom etc.) you flash them via fastboot.
The latest 14.0.6.0 comes with twrp. But you have to flash the rom with fastboot first, to get twrp installed.

Magisk can't find stock image, how can I upgrade and fix this issue?

I'm not sure why i have Magisk installed in a way that it cannot find the stock boot image, but that seems to be the case.
a quick search didn't turn up the stock boot image for my existing ROM version (IN2025_11_f.15)
I figure it may be easier to just update and lose root, then re-root with the new boot image, but I've had some issues doing what I thought would be easy, but turned into big issues, so before I start down this path, I wanted to ask what may be the best way to go from where I am...
(rooted with Magisk, but no stock boot.img, running build number IN2025_11_F.15, Baseband version Q_V1_P14)
...to getting onto the latest version my phone is offering (IN2025_11.F.62_2620_202301162204) and get Magisk fixed so that it then has a stock boot image, so I can update later by just uninstalling/restoring images, installing the update, then rebooting to the inactive slot, which worked fine for years.
Thanks in advance for any help/guidance doing so.
Hmmm, I've never uninstalled/restored boot image when updating. I simply disable/uninstall those modules that might cause issues (like Substratum/themes), download the full rom zip file and place it in the root of my internal and make a backup of my apps with Migrate.
Then I do the local upgrade WITHOUT rebooting. Back in Magisk I hit install after the Magisk version -> hit again install -> hit "install to inactive slot.
THEN I reboot.
Afterwards I enable/reinstall my Magisk modules and that's it.
But I just found your stock boot image in our OP 8 group too and am attaching it, in case you want to do it your way lol
XDA didn't like file upload so I put it on GDrive for you. Let me know when you've grabbed it so I can delete it

XDA didn't like the .img ending so I had to rename it to .zip - just remove that and you'll be good.

I've never done it that way myself. By just restoring images in magisk, I can do a "normal" update, from settings, and it will download just the update, in this case, about 700MB, then Install to inactive slot in Magisk and done.
This avoids me needing to find the full update to download. Probably not a big deal, but this has always worked fine in the past.
I guess i just installed Magisk incorrectly the last time I wiped, which is now causing me this issue.
I appreciate your suggestion, and perhaps that is the better way moving forward.
I didn't see your attachment, but as I'm typing this, i see you edited to say you renamed it, so I'll see if I see it now.
Thank you for your help.

Thank you, but that is the issue. I don't seem to have the stock image on the device, so I can't "uninstall Magisk" to restore the stock image.
Once I make the time to deal with this, I believe the stock image Nimueh shared will let me fix this, but I don't have time to troubleshoot this if it doesn't go smoothly, so it needs to wait a bit longer.

OK I thought Magisk handled the backup of the stock boot.
I'm not in hurry to upgrade lol

It normally does, but I apparently installed it 'abnormally' last time, so I didn't have/save the stock boot image.
I just need to research the best way to get the downloaded stock image onto my phone so that Magisk knows and can use it, without screwing something up, and having to wipe and reinstall everything (again).
I'm not in a huge hurry to upgrade either, but I do like to be on the latest security patches; especially considering the news with the Exynos chips' vulnerability to WiFi calling issues.

Luckily that doesn't apply to our devices though - according to the articles I've seen it only affects these devices:
Samsung Galaxy S22, M33, M13, M12, A71, A53, A33, A21s, A13, A12 and A04 series.
Vivo S16, S15, S6, X70, X60 and X30 series.
The Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 series.
Any vehicles that use the Exynos Auto T5123 chipset.

I agree. I'm more concerned about the unpublished vulnerabilities that may exist, that we just don't know about yet.
I figure that if I keep my device updated with security patches, that's better than finding out the hard way I could have prevented an issue.

I don't use my device much and mostly at home on my wifi, so I'm not overly worried. I'm still on the last OOS 11 version mysel, mostly because 1 mod I use only exists for OOS 11. I'm sure I'll update eventually but for now I'm ok with old security patches.
