Will the device get android p?

Will the device get android p? Official or unofficial anything will help

I'm pretty sure that there will be lots of android P custom ROMs in future but official update is impossible.

In my opinion, it will get Android p before EOL

Qualcomm relased (or it's going to) special patches for Snapdragon 8xx and 660 and 636 to help manufacturers update their devices to Android P. If Xiaomi doesn't update Remi Note 5 Pro /China/global to P, fanbase is going to literally destroy them for that

Xiaomi only give one major update for redmi note series.. which got N -> O.. so no more major android update (unless they change their policies)..
and now about Chinese variant, Redmi Note 3 Qualcomm launched in china as Redmi Note 3 (SE) with 6.0.1, it never got a single major android update..
[BTW a huge number of custom ROM will be available, thanks to Project Treble Support]

I dont think Xiaomi cares about that. They did that to RN3 Pro (Kenzo) users and they just looked the other way.

when I wrote that was because a developer managed to start a rom 9.0 with few bugs (same errors as the roms 8.1) other developers are working to start a rom based with the new resources of the stock 8.1 (on YouTube you can see a part of their work mixed with the vendor of kalil in a video of lineage16 for cedric but it is not the final work nor will it be) if you want to know more you have to enter the cedric groups in telegram either brazil, english or spanish that are where you can find to the developers and the work that is being done for this device a little abandoned translated with google translator

Lenovo P2a42 Android Q Update

Hello everybody,
Title says it all, I heard the requirements for flashing an Android Q GSI was increased, does the Lenovo P2a42 still manage to get away with it? It runs Oreo and Pie just fine, with the Treble enabled, but that's about it.
Source: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-android-q-beta-gsi-project-treble/
The build.prop says my current ROM is running Treble, however the other 2 tests mentioned in the source show false for me, and I'm not sure if I did it wrong, or my current ROM simply didn't support it, or is this phone finally meeting its end? Can it handle Android Q's requirements or is this the end?
Thank you for your time.

You are thinking way too much. Just enjoy the moment and don't stress much dude. When Q is released, we will know it. As long as the devs are interested, everything is possible.

Is there any full supported a/b methodology?

Android Q is coming soon to Lenovo P2.....

Telegram, one developer installed Android Q in p2 and posted some screenshots..... So we might be getting Q Roms.

LineageOS dev also announced he will be working on it soon, see the other thread on here

At the moment, Bootleggers 4.3 is the most stable Android 9 ROM for P2. No Android 10 is at its level due to stability issues.

I think there will not be any development so soon since the kernel resources were not fully released. Atm, I will wait for unlocking bootloader and global rom.

It's a Mediatek phone, so don't expect any custom ROMs.
Take a look back at the Xiaomi phones released with Mediatek chips and see how little support from developers it got

Redmi Note 4 MTK has absolutely no support and never really received a working custom ROM.

Exactly. The only fully working custom is Xiaomi.eu which is based on stock firmware with a few tweaks.
Redmi Note 4 MTK was released with Android 6 (Marshmallow) and never received a working Android 7 (Nougat).
Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon was also released with Android 6 and received Android 7 (Nougat), Android 8 (Oreo), Android 9 (Pie) and there is already an Android Q beta version released.
The choice is simply: If you want a custom ROM don't buy Mediatek

Let's wait, we never know! The (partial) source code release is a step forward. I think that the "missing" code parts have with the LCD to do and not with the chip anyway.

There are many differences :
- Xiaomi never released Kernel sources on Note 4 (MTK), you can find Note 2 and 3's on their GitHub (very tardily released), but not Note 4's...they already release Note 8 Pro's
- Xiaomi didn't sell Note 4 in western countries...now they officially sell many devices in Europe.
- most western users bought SD625 version instead...MTK community wasn't that big
Sources are there, now Mediatek need a "best seller"...unless that, custom rom won't exist
In past, a team succeed in doing rom for several Mediatek's devices (M.A.D. Team)

Mediatek still isn't popular with developers and I wouldn't expect custom ROM. Snapdragon is always the safer bet

I'm also thinking the same thing... I'll get it tomorrow and I'm already looking for a guide to root it
Plz redirect if you find anything about rooting or any other topic, thank you

So, any luck ?

Probably because it's a new phone from a less than 2 year old unpopular company, who is slow to release kernel of its devices.
I too have a realme xt and I'm dying to unlock it and try some custom Roms.
Can we create a buzz in the tech community to force them to release kernel of this mid ranger beast ASAP...?

Relax guys. Realme X yet to get an official rom support. Also all the unofficial roms for it were recently released, after the company shipped free devices to few developers. Talking about xt it ll take around 2 months to see some development that too unofficial ones. Chillax.

Patience is the key to virtue.
