Android P Nightly Beta Builds for Mi Mix 2S (Chinese)

duraaraa · Apr 29, 2018

Xiaomi has begun building nightlies for Android P, so I've added them below.

All builds are from Xiaomi's servers. Just providing links. I can't answer any questions about them, because I haven't been able to try them. But the below link might help people understand what they are:

(Cached version, original seems to have been removed from Xiaomi forum)

Although we do this for free/fun, any donations provided will encourage us to keep up the Xiaomi research.

some one try to flash it?

cascade128 · Apr 29, 2018

I tried Android O ; bootloops

Flash ok, first setup screen. Choose language(Turkish ok), choose region(only china), writing "just a sec" and bootloops...

8.4.17
8.4.27

Please be careful with these builds. There was some trouble with redmi note 5 pro, damaged the screen.

8.4.17

Try factory reset after flashing. It could have to do with user data.

I saw the official global Android O on en.miui.com,
Why would you try the Android O? Wish I had a backup phone, would like to try the P

P/S: Downloading the P version 8.4.29, let give it a try.

So did anyone tried it? Do I need a unlocked bootloader to try it?

Is this stock Android P or with MIUI

Actually, its with Redmi 5 Plue/Redmi Note 5. Regardless of any phone, it's better to be at caution with leaked early builds.

What method did you use to flash?
I think better to flash with fastboot than with twrp.
You'll need to use tools to get the system image from the files included to flash in fastboot. I think sdat2img should do it.

In RN5 case, its permanent screen burn-in. It's so bad that even if you used the build for less than an hour, you can say goodbye to your IPS panel. Some used warranty to replace the panel for free.

It's not false warnings, everything is a disaster with that build. Just take a look at rn5 forums and in telegram groups. Anyway, like you said its better to be safe than sorry.
