The Lineage OS is just getting out, and since A (2016) series phones really need a stock android based ROM, it would be very nice to see some developers working for this beautiful device as well. Given how popular this phone is, i think it's a shame there's no stock android ROM for it. We beg you developers, TouchWiz is really annoying!

Exynos + a mid-range device will not probably happen, since Exynos is harder to develop on than Snapdragon and since our phone is not a flagship, not a single good developer will bother. Only way is for some rich guy on here to create a bounty for a LineageOS rom, lol.

Hei,
do you think that in near days a rom will be released for this phone?
Or something is blocking it?
Samsung a3 2016 a310f
Thanks
A base pure AOSP rom would be just as good as lineage OS... I know this isn't one of the devices devs pay attention to, but they underestimate them. I would really like a Lineage rom for my SM-A510M.
Me too
there is a option that works but it's unofficial

Then the driver model / HAL of Android is still a shameful failure and pressure should be put on Google / OHA in some effective way to finally make it proper, granting the way to to use unified, system version independent driver packages published by hw component manufacturers and a way must be provided to install them into ROM bases without complicated kernel compilation and similar ancient Linux-way methods. The wide compatibility of Dalvik / ART apps was accomplished very well without holding back the development of new features regarding the API, so I think they could be able to come up with a similar wonderful solution overcoming Linux kernel's rigid dependency hell. Then the system updates could finally be in the hands of even simple users, raising Android's flexibility on an attainable ground to the level which it always promised and thus securing the platform's hegemony on mobile devices for the future.
(I'm not a ROM developer, but I have years of experiences in a lot other fields of software development so I know what I'm speaking)
has anyone tried this: customdroidos. com/2017/04/lineage-os-14.1-android-nougat-7.1-unofficial-rom-for-samsung-galaxy-a3-2016.html
or is that no trusted source?

well, if you read the post there and then follow the link you will end up at xda again, so that should be a safe source?)

I built LineageOS 14.1 for A7 2016.
I only confirmed it booting succesfully, but not others because I don't have much time.
If there is anyone interested in this, try it.

I think he is requesting an EMUI 5 port for our Honor 7 which is really unlikely to happen in my opinion.
I agree. This won't happen, because nobody is willing to port EMUI ??
We will get nougat custom romim pretty sure
eddydc1, no custom ROM is going to be fully featured, 100% hardware compatible and bug free. It simply cannot happen as we dont have source codes and drivers. Modders can try to use original files and software blobs but it will be always hit or miss. Huawei and Honor hardware working on Kirin SOCs is close sourced, not documented and not widely supported.

Hi guys, I'm considering buying this phone, but I haven't used Xiaomi before
Right now I have a Huawei P8 and I regret buying it, pretty great specs but the firmware (i.e. bootloader, drivers) and software (their Android build) is crap. I recently installed CyanogenMod which is already a huge improvement, but the battery is only 2600mA and it's aged, so I don't even get a half day of medium high usage (watching videos, web, etc)
What I would like to know is mainly about the MIUI business
Huawei emui is crap, so please tell me whatever you want about Xiaomi's one
Also should I get the mtk or the sd version? Are there any other differences?
Is there anything you dislike about your note 4? I didn't do my homework before buying my P8, so please be honest with any problems you have with the phone
Feel free to ask me for clarification or additional preferences if I've left out anything
I feel I should mention that I'm a power user
I will definitely want to root my new phone, probably Xposed too, and if I don't like Xiaomi's ROM, then I'll probably use lineage OS
On that note, how easy is it to do the above? Should I be satisfied with MIUI?

You can play with your phone whatever you want, there are tons of roms available right now, rooting and flashing is easy, but I think unlocking the dayyym bootloader might take few days.
If you don't like Miui, you can always switch, Infact i dont like Miui its sucks for me. I left Miui like long ago, I won't be reverting to Miui anytime soon.
Its depends, some of em likes Miui, most of em' don't, custom Roms FTW!!
Battery is great, camera is also good.. [sorry I dont take photos, I dunno about quality ??]
Go get it, that's all I'd like to say!
Careful it has two variant; Snapdragon and Mediatek SoC. If you're custom ROM's addict, pick the SD ones.

I'm very much the same, almost never use camera. I've heard MIUI has beat features, like the double account thing. But you're right, if I don't like it there's always another ROM (in which case the Snapdragon would be better since more ROMs)

Yes I noticed from browsing the forums, but I mean I'm generally very content with Cyanogen, so I don't think I need too much variety.
The having to wait to get bootloader code sounds similar to Huawei, but what a large portion of Huawei users didn't know about was the website that let you fill in your details and instantly get a code (Huawei website, not shady stuff)

Read post #7
Edit: I looked through the Snapdragon ROMs
Seems it's all basically MIUI or cyanogen variants
(i.e they look similar to my current ROM)
So although "mido" has more ROMs, it seems to be more of the same

Well, I got it.
CM is dead and LineageOS is the new CM now.
But but.. If I were you I'd like to choose SD variant over an MTK one, because of development.
The stable Roms you get, when EOL of a device then there might be newer android versions via custom roms, where as MTK variant stuck, if you look in the MTK variant roms, kernel sections, you'll get it.
check on miui website for locked bootloader and you will definitely avoid this great but due to lock phone.

Hello to all,
sorry if I open another thread for this request, but Cosmic Dan, dev who was working on MIUI GSI, has abandoned the porting. He told me that all WIP was pushed to GitHub, so please is there any devs who can port MIUI Rom on treble devices? (I have Honor View 10). Thanks
Hi,
for information, I made the same request in MIUI Porting Team forum: http://en.miui.com/thread-3355142-1-1.html
I hope someone will be able to finish the kitchen.
PS: Even if CosmicDan give up, I would like to thank him for the time he spent trying to port MIUI to treble phones.
I have a feeling this will have the same outcome as the other thread. Why are people so desperate for MIUI anyway? If you want it, go buy a Xiaomi phone, they're relatively inexpensive for smart phones nowadays.

I'm not desperate, for me Miui is the best rom and before the Honor View 10 I had a Xiaomi mi5. But now the top Xiaomi devices are not so nice (notch everywhere), so would be nice to have Miui Rom in other devices.

For example again, . . . .Why buy xiaomi phone if you already have s9?

When there will be ever a miui gsi it will not be the same as on a real miui device. It would be illegal to Integrate all the cloud based miui features..

It is not illegal if you're not selling it, besides; xiaomi will appreciate you using its cloud and cloud based features as they can offer you services that requires money and make profit out of you, as you may know; xiaomi does not makes profit out of hardware but of its miui software and its bloatwares, so i think its a win win situation.
The spirit of using GSI roms is to be able to try anything.
To say if you like Samsung OS, LG OS, or Miui OS go buy it. Does nothing but prove that you are arrogant and clueless.
Please miui ROM GSI

Abroad different forums OP fans seem to be triggered when talking about MIUI, or request it for an OP device.
Be helpful or don't reply at all if you're gonna be a **** about it.
I absolutely love MIUI, however due to the device not being sold in the Netherlands, I chose for an OP6 (Warranty, local support etc), on which I hope some day I can flash MIUI10 on.

I barely remember making this comment. But, I was a little rude, no doubt. I remember that someone made a very rude ( that commenter was dickish)
Their comment about how people should buy Miui, instead of simply asking about gaining access to a ported Miui Rom.
Why say something like this, on a custom Rom website, and in the GSI rom section!
I cant find that comment now....deleted? Regardless, the spirit of using custom Roms and and especially GSI roms is to be able to have access to a wide variety of Roms, and its nice to have something different instead of the usual CAF and AOSP roms.
Yes, its nice to have greater access, and to be able to try different things. Thanks to being able to try a ported miui rom, my next phone will absolutely be a Xiaomi. You cannot currently buy Xiaomi in the US, and thanks to our political "geniuses" Chinese phone prices are sure to skyrocket, making Xiaomi plans to expand into the US market, even less certain.
Regardless, my next phone will very likely be a Mi Mix 2s, largely because I was able to try the Miui software via a ported custom rom. Although I cannot find the phones locally they are certainly easily found online.
Wouldn't it be nice to be able to find GSI roms, that allow us to try a greater variety customised android OS's by One Plus, LG, Samsung, Huawei? I think so.
Xiaomi lately released a Pie ROM, I suggest it's a GSI https://www.xda-developers.com/android-pie-alpha-build-xiaomi-mi-mix-2s/

From what I believe no-one is working on it, @CosmicDan was working on a port but as I recall he got tired of the impatience and ungrateful community responses he took a break, or quit it entirely.
That was our last hope for active development, as I believe no-one is working on it right now

That is very sad. Miui is a great UI.
So it's been almost two months since Android 10 release and still almost no sign of a ROM for the Mi 8 Lite. Does anyone have an idea what's so hard about building it? Or is it because of the small community of this phone?
Thanks for the answers
why anyone so cares about new version. what do you think that you will get with A10? new wallpapers, tones and new looking icons.
f you think that is so easy to create a build , than do it yourself

Custom roms will arrive before Xiaomi launches the official Android 10 update. I'm convinced.
