Support
I only support Custom ROMs... It is working on MIUI but I won't fix issues for MIUI! (As example Kernelversion shows unavailable)
Also it's confirmed to work too on Mi6x (Wayne) but i won't support it officially because i don't own this device!

Flashing
Make sure u backup ur current Kernel before flashing! I'm not taking responsibility for any damage!
If you installed a custom Kernel before please flash the boot.img of the currently installed ROM or dirty flash the ROM (I prefer dirty flashing)
Then just flash the zip file through TWRP...
And have fun with the full "IceCold Experience"
