Likely not, but why bother. If this device gets traction there will be CM for it but I'm prety sure that won't happen before Xiaomi releases source code. I dearly hope they do that soon, as I've hastily order a Mi 5S yesterday. I hope I'll be able to flash some closer to AOSP ROM as soon as possible. I'm pretty sure I don't really want to use MIUI as my daily driver. I'll surely use it until something better comes along and after I get Google Apps on it.
If someone eventually puts together a CM rom for this device I will try it of course. I try all Roms for whatever device I am on.
That said, I admit that MIUI is not only classy looking, but offers enough customization options to satisfy any modder - my opinion of course.
I have unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp and the latest custom MIUI rom from here and rooted the device. I honestly don't feel like I'm missing anything with this device.
4gb ram, 128gb storage, Snapdragon 821! I easily get about 5.5 hrs sot.
I really like this device. I'm very satisfied.

I'm also interested in CM for Mi5s
Me too interested but xiaomi havent released kernel source
Yes, very much needed !!!
Hello,
I will getting the Xiaomi Mi 5S Plus tomorrow.
What are some of the first things I should be doing? I feel like I will not like the MIUI too much as I have used stock android on my old Nexus and more recently Cyanogen on my OPO. I plan to install Cyanogenmod on the phone as soon as they release it.
I believe I should do the following to prepare for that so that I do not need to start from scratch in the future (unsure of order and how to do it, some advice and guides here would be helpful, as well as an explanation of the purpose of each step):
- install custom recovery (I'm 99% certain I need to do this to install another ROM)
- root the phone (I don't think this is necessary, but allows me to do other things e.g. use Greenify)
- unlock bootloader (not sure what the purpose of this is)
Are there any other steps I should take?
Thanks in advance!

What is mi ui EU rom? I have intl version of the device (Hong Kong). Does this make a difference?
Thanks!
Without unlocking the bootloader, you can't install any custom recovery or custom ROM, just the official Xiaomi releases.
The eu version have less chinese apps and some minor changes compared to the global version. You can check the differences in their website.
Once you have unlocked the bootloader and install twrp, becoming root is pretty easy.

MIUI EU here

I also use Xiaomi EU. It works great. If you want the UI to look slightly more like a Nexus or Pixel try the "Pixel N" or "Android N" themes.

If you are talking about xiaomi.eu, yes it's different.
It's based on official China ROM and as you can see the release of official Global ROM is lagging behind china rom for both mi5s versions. For example stable for Plus is 8.0.4.0 for Global (I guess just one release) while it's 8.2.2.0 for China.
It's cleaned from Chinese apps, it contains many European languages (including Italian) and gapps.

I'm on 8.0.4.0 of Global Rom and I must admit that this is the first phone which makes me so satisfied. I'm gonna stay close to later products from Xiaomi as long as they keep doing this way. :laugh:
I don-t understand the different ROM-s.
I now have 8.0.4 Global Stable.
It seems tha a 8.2.2 Global Stable should come out since 20 February (but did not come out)
Then there is a 7.3.9 Global Beta released March 10
http://en.miui.com/thread-534687-1-1.html
But why Beta is a LOWER number (7.3.9 to 8.0.2)???????????
Very confusing

4GB is a lot of Ram in my opinion.
Think if you need 64 or 128 of storage in your phonbe, and make your decision based on that.
As far as I know, for my usage (and I am a heavy user) 4GB of RAM is enough nowadays

Thanks for trying to help. I have now resolved the problem!. The reason phone was not sending was because of 3G signal only at my home. When I tried in a 4G area not far from my location a picture message flew through. Many thanks re whats app .I use same and there is no difficulty sending pictures on it as I Have good broadband 240 megabytes boosted to almost double that with an Asus rt -87 u router and an Asus AC -66 extender. Regards!
I'm interested in this phone but worried because its a phone made first for the Chinese Market, I understand there is a global rom and I can get a phone without the Chinese apps, however are there any issues with the official global rom? I read someone's comment on XDA that the global rom is crap ☺ what is your experience with it please?
I don't experience problems with the Global rom, i am on the latest Beta.
Yeah, it's MIUI...

In particular? Everything about MIUI from the UI to the stupid, annoying, unfriendly over-security... Do this - Connect to MiAccount first, do that - Insert SIM, do something else - Connect to internet... etc, etc, etc... One after another stupid warnings with countdown... I am testing you for god's sake...
Considering the Kernel source is already available, how soon could we expect a custom ROM like lineage OS to become available?
Maybe some months

Is it worth it??
Ive been using this phone with the global one and the only issue I found is the auto brightness. Sometimes the screen is too dark and is not so accurate tbh.
I would like maybe more battery duration but it seems fine (far from my ex phone, a huawei honor play) but in general terms the ROM works pretty good.
so, no kernel sources yet and therefore nobody is working on a custom rom.
are there plans to start so?

i thought it might depend on the sources that some motivated people are going to build a rom. but yeah i definitely willing to wait for it.
Based on the dev work done with it's predecessor mi 8 se, I'd say there is **** all chance of this phone getting custom roms.
It's a pity, I much prefer the smaller size of this phone, but I'm ****ed if I'm going to have a phone stuck running miui

There was no global version neither release for the Mi 8 SE, things are quite different.
We just have to wait for Qualcomm 712 sources to be released, exactly the same as with the 855.
As stated on another thread, there is no point in waiting for a full ROM when device is Treble enabled.
FlokoROM is already working fine on Mi 9 SE, you can download Aonly GSI img from https://treble.andro.plus/ and flash it.
On top of that, it looks like someone is already reworking the kernel using CAF sources.
For some reference and a full ROM list, you can check https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble

It's true, im guessing the reason is that all the major devs are dont have the non PRO variants... the 7 and 7T Pro have pretty decent custom ROMs with support without twrp... its just the fact that the devs dont have this device for testing I miss RR OS and Havoc OS

I guess most of you already tried and saw that op7tPro roms are running on op7t with some minor issues . Camera is not working , fingerprint is working but it needs a bit calibration due to resolution differences between two phones . Other features already running very well . RR , Havoc , Paranoid Android and some other roms are already developing for op7tpro . I am not developer but it should be easier port from op7tpro to op7t than developing from the beginning . I am very eager to test this kind of efforts . Sometimes I am thinking that why I didn't buy op7tpro .
Somehow I can't complain with my OnePlus 7T on stock system and stock recovery with root coz I have actually everything what I need. Even without fully working TWRP. Magisk Root with YouTube Vanced, Axet's Call Recorder, BusyBox, LSpeed,MagiskHide Props Config and and few other modules is not enough?All bank apps works good and SafetyNet Pass as well using Termux and few commands to get fingerprint certification. Netflix "visible" in PlayStore etc.
What other profits can you get guys with Custom ROM? I don't think that much more than with this. If is not enough for someone always can add module RiRuCore and EdXposed for more customization.

I definetely agree with you . I am trying all custom roms and trying to use a few hours and go back to stock or beta (mostly beta because It has more features than stock) . Because there is no custom roms stable , robust and fluent like OOS . But I love to use different tastes that's why we are in XDA and we are using Oneplus which known as best brand to support custom roms and developers . I know oneplus already giving us beta per month and stable per two month . Ours is rom installing passion .
Devs got older and wiser. They don't have much time to do free stuff.
Well I think we should blame "google dynamic partition" that our device (and other device that ship with android 10) didnt get proper TWRP. You all can see forum for pixel 4/4XL also got slow development. Also device like pixel3/3xl getting slow after android 10 release compared to android 9. Google is not friendly to development anymore... day by day google slowly became apple.

Honestly, right now I wouldn't blame the Google changes and no TWRP. Developing is pretty much the same except a different flashing procedure.
I think it's either the developer who doesn't own the device, or they are not willing to try living without TWRP.
(Whether we like it or no, this is the future, or at least for a long time).
There are more on telegram, if you search around you should fine some good ROMs.
Yes the twrp situation is the biggest problem here it makes flashing stuff a pita and using msmtool to fix a minor issue when your phone won't boot ??

Nah. You can easily flash a fastboot rom or some images of it. You don't need to use MSM if you aren't fully bricked.
True still not as noob/user friendly as zip and twrp though ?
Which fastboot roms are full working? I have test aosip and MSM-Xtended but both have bad auto brighness.
