Okay, so more than half a year after the release of Nougat, we still do not have a stable 7.x ROM for the G2 available, yet Google has already released developer previews for 8.x.
So, what are the chances that we're going to see 8.x on the G2?
What? That is so wrong.
CrDroid.... My G2 was never so fast and used so less battery - and CrDroid (7.1.1) with Lambda Kernel is stable.
So I don't know what you're doing wrong, but this is not true.
Also running on nougat and have no troubles??? latest LineageOS veryy fast and stable and also battery time is very good.

Correct! LineageOS works great. Hope we will get O from Lineage Team
CrDroid with lambda works great, better than stock in every way. Especially since bigboy ported the stock lg camera. Android 0 is and will be buggy for a long time, its just the first dev preview build.
we have a lot of roms Nougat good and stable so i think will we have good Android O but we will take some times
AICP 12.1 (based on Android 7.1.1) with Lambda Kernel works perfect. Stable, fast and battery friendly.
aicp much cooler than crdroid with this rom i have no wish to buy a new phone after 3 years... it works better than most midrange 2017 phones unfortunately cameras got old..
+1 that, I have a Note 5 - and I miss the performance, battery life and hold-ability of my G2. Don't be fooled by new phones people, they're way less optimised with their dual-processor configurations (8-cores), and quite often the weaker cores are less powerful than this device.

Well, first off, we already have multiple Android 7.x ROMs that are stable, I don't know what you're talking about.
Will we see 8? That depends if someone is willing to make ROMs for this phone. And I'd say yes, we will have Android O, maybe not immediately but it will come.

The Lineage OS 14.1 thread is littered with bug reports...
So how can I get the best camera quality on non stock roms? is there any way to record 60fps?

lol this just so true... I don't really need to upgrade the phone with a bunch of Android N roms for LG G2 but the camera is quite sluggish already. Thats the only part that keeps reminding me its an old phone lol
CrDroid is okay if you like plain.
go to AICP and boom , you don't really need to use all the customization
I hope people will be developing roms for this unkillable phone.
Sorry for this little OT but it has some relation with the thread... At least with LineageOS the headphones volume its so much lower than with Stock (or stock optimized) roms, do you know if this is solved in any nougat rom ? Thanks in advice and sorry again for OT.

There are some ROMs better than paranoid in battery specially EUI but in mi opinion Paranoid is the best ROM in performance and reliability besides If you install last update (day 25) you do not get any important bug.

Thank you! Do you think any Oreo ROMs compare with paranoid? I am using AICP at the minute but I'm thinking of moving back to paranoid.
I'm trying new roms now from scartch and so far had no luck with Oreo. Lineage 14 is what I came from, but 15 with Android 8.1 is very sluggish. I then tried AOSIP, it's fast but I can't get the camera to work and file drivers crap out after a minute or two when connected to the PC. They just can't seem to get these right, maybe if they worked together there would be one good rom . I'm still on the hunt for a stable rom that does not run like crap myself.

Main reason is my phone getting hot. But we are having hot weather where I am at the minute so it may be that causing it.
Only other problem is the speaker isn't as good as on paranoid android (quieter, not as good quality)

I had the file issue too, since moving to Mokee fingers crossed it has been ok. Plus the loud speaker n mic seem to be ok on this rom. One issue on the current build the speaker output is a little lower than on some other roms when playing videos, other than that it has been good and there are nightly builds that you can install at leisure.

Hi All
Just wondering how popular the Mi Pad 4 is and will there be many ROMs in the foreseeable future?
I'm coming from Zenfone 2, Redmi Note 3 and now G5S Plus which have many ROMs to choose from.
If I am honest it looks a bit sparse but I'm OK with that if the few that are here get all the bugs worked out. Id be happy with a fully working Lineage.
I'm surprised there is not more considering the price to performance seems to be decent and the 3gb/32gb is now about $160 on gearbest.

Has Mokee or LineageOS the widevine L1 flag?
Install this app and start it and look for the Widevine flag. For HD-content to be streamable for Netflix or Prime, it must be L1. Mostly it is only L3.. :/

Great, I actually donated for Mokee on my Redmi Note 3 it was a great ROM on that device.

I have my note 5 running pixel experience and it's working well. My gf has an old iPhone 6 and she needs an upgrade. Is it worth it to just get us both povos and flash PE on them?
As good as Pixel Experience is it's still early days for that ROM on the Poco. The stock MIUI ROM still runs better and faster than Pixel Experience (MIUI is no slouch and gets 300 thousand in Antutu where Pixel Experience is 50 thousand points slower) I would just buy the phone and wait if you really want Pixel Experience ROM

It shouldn't be long till they have official release and the stable PE should be at the same level. IMO AnTuTu scores aren't everything. Miui is too complicated for my gf and I don't want mi cloud or the spying.
POCO is worth it still or wait 6months for f2?

The F2 is just going to be a refresh of a F1 but with a bigger screen and better cameras but still keep the same SOC. You are right Antutu scores are not everything but they are a good indication. You don't have to have Mi Cloud (I don't) and it really depends on where you are in the world or how much you believe Xiaomi are spying on you. All phones spy on you to some degree

If the phone is setup right then that shouldn't really bother anyone but it does for some reason.
I am pretty happy with PE in my poco. I came from Samsung J5 (2015) so i most be not that sensitive because I didn't notice any differences from miui for daily performance. The phone is bloody fast and responsive so I would say go for it for sure...

They promise too much with this phone and we are constantly told to wait for basic features. Let's just say we were promised dolby and qhd 60fps back in September still nothing.
Dolby soon
Netflix HD soon
Qhd 60 fps soon
1080p 60 fps soon
Best you wait for a version 2. Too many issues currently.
I wish I went for the oneplus 6 it's eis is perfect, not kidding it's 99% stabilizated you can see videos yourself VS this wobbly mess.
Currently there are 2 main problems on the custom roms, the EIS for Google camera doesn't work and once you watch a video in HDR your phone will be stuck in HDR mode until you restart it.

For Netflix you can install a modded version and have HD...
For videos you can use ported MIUI camera.
I would say go for it, worst case scenario, you sell your phone later and buy the F2, best case scenario you will see people just like to complain, for its price its so good.
Happy costumer here...

Hello, I still have my Mi Pad 2 (16GB) laying around and i've been thinking about replacing its battery and then install some sort of alternative OS such as Ubuntu, Chrome OS, Android x86 etc... I saw some topics here and on other websites but only a few people actually got those OS's working but didn't provide any instructions whatsoever.
Is someone still interested in this device? If so, any help and support would be appreciated.
Yes, I am still using it. I had already replaced the batteries once.

I'm also willing to try Windows 10 2004, but a lightweight version because my Mi Pad 2 is the 16GB version. How did you install that on yours? With a USB dongle with USB stick and keyboard like a regular computer?
Also, how did you improve heat dissipation?
By the way, does anyone know if it's possible to desolder the eMMC and replace it with a high capacity one? Like 64 or 128GB?
I still use my Mi Pad 2, mainly for reading. But been looking into bringing up Android N to this tablet (there is at least one Intel Atom nougat kernel source available, which might come in handy) and also around 3-4 different tablets running Nougat on Intel Atom (so we can try to use those blobs). Bliss OS is an option as well (as per the guide(s) on this forum). One approach could be to assist the Bliss OS team in squashing the bugs for the Mi Pad 2. If you want to discuss this further, feel free to let me know.

I'm a bit "desperate" to have a good OS available for this device because otherwise it's basically a paper weight for me. Stock MIUI was always flawed and slow and in my case Windows is pretty limited since I only have 16 gigs. And yeah, I'm available to discuss this further, it would be a pleasure.

Have you ever tried the AOSP rom (it's seems to be a developer rom from Xiaomi) for Mi Pad 2?
I'm currently using MIUI 9.6.2.0 Mod from LVware it's working fine.
The only Android N kernel source for Cherry Trail devices available is the Grandstream GXV3380 http://www.grandstream.com/support/resources/?title=GXV3380 (scroll down to GXV3380 GNU GPL). Grandstream writes its rom is Android 7 based, so the kernel source must be Nougat based (I only write this, because a Cherry Trail nougat source has never been released, so this is huge. I even think it is able to compile based on the archive contents). I only came by this by searching for Cherry Trail devices on Geekbench Browser. Would like to compare this kernel source to the Lollipop Mi Pad 2 one.
In terms of an Android Marshmallow Cherry Trail kernel source, I could only find the Panasonic Toughpad Android 6 (PANASONIC FZ-A2A): https://panasonic.net/cns/oss/tabletcomputer/FZB2D001.html .. It's worth mentioning that Amazon has made the Amazon Echo Show (2nd Gen) kernel source available as well (5.5.3.9-20200618.tar.bz2), but I think it's Lollipop based: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?ie=UTF8&nodeId=201626480 (scroll down to Echo Show (2nd Generation). The Nougat kernel source might be released, as the latest software version available is 655636620 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201602210) and according to Wiki the 6.x.x.x builds are Nougat based. I know it's confusing, you can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_OS#cite_note-4
In terms of blobs, there are plenty of devices to borrow from. Medion has 4 tablets that have been updated from Lollipop -> Marshmallow -> Nougat. The same with Getac, which has two models the MX50 and the ZX70. Lenovo has a few Cherry Trail devices as well upgraded to Nougat, which can be borrowed from.

Yep, I've tried the AOSP ROM but it gets really slow after a bit. It's almost impossible to multitask because it can't handle more than 2 apps. Never heard about that MIUI ROM though, do you have a link for it? is it good?
About the sources i'll be completely honest. I have limited expertise on this subject but seeing all that makes me think that it's not that impossible to make a good ROM for our device (am i wrong?), so what's limiting us? People with knowledge? More sources? What's the next step?

holy ****ing **** I know exactly what you mean. windows 8 does it. windows 8 is great.
i've been messing with 8 on it, and it's literally orgasmicly good. 10 is still my main OS because some drivers are missing, but the whole of it works really well.
oh, and using gibson's inspectre.exe to disable spectre and meltdown protections was THE thing to finally get the performance that seemingly disappeared. thats because it did disappear! also seems to help with RAM usage enormously
and I cut the plastic insulator between the motherboard and the rear case. filled in the gap with a thermal pad pretty much right on the CPU. 2.24 GHz base clocks now baby!
and this CPU is around a 7W TDP for anyone wondering. intel says 2W SDP, I say 4W SDP is probably closer to reality. 2W is at the base 1.44 GHz tho, but mine is at 2.24 GHz all the time.
I still have my 2GB RAM 16GB internal MiPad2 and working with shortened battery life and some limited app functionality (G.Play doesn't work/update for eg).
I want to use it primarily as a book/manga reader as well as a media player of sorts.
I saw the recommended custom ROMs list here but any advice on which is ideal for this device based on its limited hardware?

i installed a light version of windows 10 on mine and it works surprising well. I have around 8gb to play with
That's cool! Performance is ok?
So would app installation then be via the Microsoft Store or can you still install via Google Play?
Are the instructions for the Windows 10 Lite flashing detailed somewhere on this forum?

Hello,
can you really install Windows 10 on Mipad 2 2 / 16Gb based on Android?
I have a Mipad 2 2/64 based on Android, and I want to replace it with Windows 10, would you like to share the method with me?
I still use this little tablet as a second screen/device playing video's on the desk when im working on my laptop. The screen is still really nice: bright and crisp. Mine has Windows 10 installed which is barely useable, usually everything feels kinda slow, but it does work. The biggest problem was that it thermal throtteled after normal use, so what helps is if you do a cooling mod. It's not that hard, I cut a square out of the shroud thats covering the CPU and placed a thick thermal pad over the CPU so it touches the outer metal housing. This greatly improved CPU/GPU performance and solved the thermal issue. The housing doesn't even get that hot when you stress the tablet. It now plays video's no problem all day long, where it would stutter after while without the mod...
Don't expect any miracles though, it's still an Atom with a slow eMMC drive and only 2GB of RAM. Windows is just too heavy for it sometimes. A newer version of Android would probably be a better fit. What also helps is if you debloat Windows a little: https://github.com/W4RH4WK/Debloat-Windows-10

Performance is fine i guess. I think it gave a new life to my Mi Pad 2 even though i haven't been using it lately. App instalation is via Microsoft Store of course, or via .exe installers just like a PC.
I'm wondering if it will be possible to install Windows 10X on it. That would be very cool.
As for the instructions, i used an old tutorial from the Xiaomi forums to change from Android to Windows and then I installed that Windows 10 lite from Ghostspectre using a USB stick just like a regular PC

That's right, my 2/16 Mi Pad 2 is running Windows 10.
I found the link for the tutorial. Sadly it's offline, but Wayback Machine can open it just fine, except the pictures. Surprisingly, the download link is still online too but it's pretty big (7 gigs).
If anyone needs that, i can send the two links through PM
