Very seriously don't think it will no major devs are building for this device and there was a fundraiser for development but that went down the drain so in short good luck

I think that its very poor. No custom kernels and many roms. Every developer went for OP 7

I am happy with MIUI 10 since I have root and the goodies I need.
It was very hard to root, everything is different than vanilla Android devices.
But you really can't brick a MIUI device because there is a MIUI Flash Tool that works like a charm.


I tried AOSP Pixel Experienec and I didn't like it.
Also side button and fingerprint not working.

Yes but for months there is no custom kernel.. but every other Xiaomi device has some. Dunno why? Probably I would go for OP7 if I knew it earlier

It is a kind of sad not to see that much development for our beautiful device. I just tried the Havoc OS Treble ROM which only has a not that good camera as in miui, everything else worked good. Battery was lasting a lot longer.
I also miss F2FS support.

Same that A2. I thinked this Device would have custom Roms.

I also funded for this guy buying its device for developing lineage os. But I am asking what happend? Do you have some information?

To answer the question:
Very sad developing scene so far for this device. At first I didn't want to root and use custom ROM at all but I don't like miui and its bugs so hard I am really waiting for a good and stable Rom.

The best bet is to get a op7pro are op7 all roms will develop both devices I know I have them all since op1
