Just wondering... Has any MT6795/Helio X10 device recived marsmellow ? - Redmi Note 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

While Xiaomi has leaked but not said anything official as to marshmellow on the redmi note 2.
Im curious about the Helio X10 in general. as far as i could find theres only one Helio X10 device with Marshmellow, the HTC X9.
But its yet to be released, its only apperance has been TENNA which is the Chinese electronics certification board (i think)
so... before asking about Marshmellow on the redmi note 2, should we be worried Mediatek will pull its regular **** and say "well, if you want marshmellow get a P10 or X20 powered phone", the same way they did with the MT6589T and the MT6592.
The only reason the MT6582 got lollipop was the android one program, and thats becuase Google was personaly involved in the project. but Mediatek is usualy like "well... we dont release newer android versions for our older products becuase we want you to buy the latest one and make us more money"
Its the reason why the RedMi note 3 Pro exists (snapdragon 615) and the reason why Xiaomi dosnt use mediatek for its flagship range (theres no mediatek Mi3/4 variant), and why they say that the X20 (apart from heat issues) has no place in the newer lineup.
So. any X10 devices with marshmellow ?

Sony M5 will receive marshmelow too

will being the key word

Where did you get this information?

Xiaomi weibo in china

imposible

The HTC One M9+ (released May 2015), which will get the update to 6.0, and the One X9 which was even released with 6.0.
Sony also announced it will update it's Xperia M5

Archos has launched Diamond 2 Note, X10 & PowerVR G6200 which born with M.
Maybe devs can take a look at this.

Drivers for the Mediatek SoC are definitely available to the manufacturers, so Xiaomi should be able to work on the update, unless they no longer care for a phone that is only 3 months old (Redmi Note 3).
Unfortunately, that happens more than I would like.

The Archos diamond 2 note is in the same place as the HTC X9, unreleasd.

MediaTek has partnered with MIUI for what I knew and released the MT6795 kernel code. My device is a LeTV Le 1s, it already has Marshmallow running and stable. The community of this mobile is very present. There are almost all existing RONs in MT6795 running on this device. Unfortunately I will not have VIBE OS lenovo because the lenovo not released any MT6795 device and I do not know build systems for android devices from the source code. but content myself with coloros 3.0 or MIUI 8 for now.
If you understand kernel compilation, there is the link to the MT6795 kernel:

Wondering if the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 will get the Cyanogenmod 13?

Just as the title says . I dont mind the waiting to be honest but will it happen? I mean they have the qualcom variant so I hope they will bring out one for our note 3
I am there with you brother !
The phone is pretty awesome and I CM wil be available soon . Ever thought about making the ROM yourself?
count me in. It would be just super great to have CM on the Redmi Note 3!!!
Count me in on wishing this was available....

Any version of Cyanogenmod for the Redmi Note 3 would be great. Very disappointed in this phone. The reviews were - are - very complimentary, the hardware specs are really good, but for beyond-China buyers the software problems are a deal-breaker. The reviews didn't mention the threat of a locked bootloader...
http://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-locks-bootloader-on-recent-devices/
I've applied for bootloader unlock, but no word back from Xiaomi. Wish now I'd paid extra $100 for a ZUK Z1, Cyanogenmod out of the box.
There are multiple Custom Roms for the Redmi Note 3 available in the official MIUI forum.
All 5.1.1 Custom Roms:
CM 12.1:http://en.miui.com/thread-210418-1-1.html
MoKee: http://en.miui.com/thread-215319-1-1.html
BlissPop: http://en.miui.com/thread-214718-1-1.html
PAC-Man:http://en.miui.com/thread-214488-1-1.html
Resurrection Remix: http://en.miui.com/thread-215699-1-1.html
Flyme OS:http://en.miui.com/thread-213952-1-1.html
All 5.0.2 Custom Roms:
AOSP:http://en.miui.com/thread-210071-1-1.html
SphinX (Based on stock):http://en.miui.com/thread-207019-1-1.html
DEV Global Rom (Based on stock):http://en.miui.com/thread-214146-1-1.html
But because all the non Stock Roms are based on Redmi Note 2 Roms, the fingerprint sensor isn't working and 4G is only working on SIM slot 1. On SIM slot 2 only 2G is working.
With the Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon 650 model being available, im guessing getting CM13 running onto that will be a easier task?
What rom can supporting all sensor for Redmi Note 2?

Runnig any version of cyanogenmod will be a easier task, because Snapdragon processors are officially supported by the cyanogen team and MediaTek processors are not.

That is not necessarily true. Android One devices are supported - they are mediatek but their source code is released as they are google supported. So its more to do with source code than anything else.

Yeah you're right but I think in this case it will be a easier task because as I know MediaTek didn't published the kernel source code for the normal Redmi Note 3 (not sure). So creating/porting cm for Redmi Note 3 Pro will be easier because Qualcom publishes many of their kernel source codes.

Why Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 (Mediatek) is neglected?

While Snapdragon has CM14, Mediatek has only CM12.1. Why Redmi Note 3 (Mediatek) is left behind?
Well, MediaTek is known of very bad in terms of custom developing. They just rarely releases source code.
So Xiaomi also didn't release source code for hennessy yet. And I'm 100% sure they won't do it. Without that it's hard to make stable custom ROM, because devs can't build custom kernel.
Also there are many more people who have SD than MTK and more people=better community=more custom developing
as said by kubap, Mediatek and Nvidia devices (except that nexus 7) won't get their source code released so developers can't build any stable ROM from source, that's why you get ported or no roms.
And MTK Redmis are banned in India right now. Whole India has only Snapdragon RN3. Snapdragon edition is the most popular all over the world. So the developers are mainly from China.

Noob to Xiaomi phones needs help with upgrading his Redmi Note 4x MTK

Hey guys,
I'm sorry if there is another thread about this but I'm new to Xiaomi (I used to be a LG user until now) and I just got overwhelmed by all the Redmi note 4 and 4x variants...
All I know is that I got a Redmi Note 4x with a MTK deca core CPU, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. My phone is on Android 6 atm, but I found this thread and I was wondering if this is the right one for my phone? I used to flash lots of different roms on my old LG G2, CM12 and others, then restore the stock rom when I got bored of the custom roms - It was plain simple, but since I'm pretty new to Xiaomi and its community isn't as huge as the G2 community I'm scared to brick my device. I could try flashing the given ROM but what if something goes wrong? How do I restore the stock ROM? Is there a "Download Mode" like my G2 had it?
I tried googling for days, but all the variants, different roms etc are just so overwhelming. Is there anyone else here who can confirm that the ROM from the link above will work on my device?
I have the very same question.
Yeah. That's for your phone only.
Any redmi note 4/4x with MTK variant (nikel)

MIUI 10 Oreo ?

MIUI 10 released now for selected device.
Rn3 kenzo still awaited til next month.
will it bring Oreo to our device?
any one tested beta miui 10?
what you expect from miui 10
We don't even have Nougat and you're asking about Oreo?!
Official development for rn3 has ended till Marshmallow only... Now just miui updates we would be getting and not the android version updates.
Oreo only possible if mi max 1 gets it and so will be project treble
but why ther is another device with same soc as redmi note 3 sony xperia x dual codename suzu same snapdragon 650 and 3 gb ram and it has recieved oreo update officially

And Devs are using its blobs. See everything cannot be the same even if the SoC is same other things like camera hals and other important libs won't work on kenzo and vice versa. Also if ported everything was possible both device would virtually become the same which ofc is not possible.

Because xiaomi doesn't care for rn3 as its successors have come (rn4 & rn5)
life is great

Currently there is no any official sources for Redmi note 2, but since android 6.0 they are trying to port sources from other devices with similar specs, like HTC DESIRE 830, LeEco Le1s etc.
