Kernel sources - Released!!! Link up!!

[sivabommakanti]

Hi guys,
Finally, kernel sources have been released. Here's the link : https://github.com/MiCode/Xiaomi_Kernel_OpenSource/tree/cancro-kk-oss

Past :
After being fed up for long time, we have some good news to cheer about. And the news is from Hugo Barra again. I was going through YouTube and saw Hugo answering 2 people in the comments section about the kernel sources.
Q.1 by Ryan Berkeley -
"Redundant, because I asked this question on another youtube video of yours. Here's the question. When are the kernals going to be released? According to GPL, that needs to be released and we might get a sub forum on XDA for it? This phone isn't for me, but once the phone crosses the warranty stage, I'd like to see it last longer than a mere 2 years like my #lgoptimus2x"
Reply from Hugo : Mi 3 kernel source coming in the next few weeks, please stand by!""

Q.2 by Anish Pawar -
"When is Xiaomi releasing kernel sources for mi3?"
Reply from Hugo : "n a few weeks, we're really sorry about the delay! Has to do with the fact that Mi 4 is using the same kernel source, so we're just putting the finishing touches on what we plan to release.

About Hugo Barra's answer on Q2. That's what I've been suspecting long time ago. Well my thought was correct.

 

[KeyLimePies]

I'm a little skeptical to be honest... If mi3 shares the same kernel as mi4 I doubt they would want to release the kernel sources... They may not release the full source... Let's see how this goes!

All we can do is just hope that this time he keeps up his promise!!!Amen

 

[s4tch]

thing is he gave both answers about a month ago, so "a few weeks" have already passed... anyway, let's hope they will eventually release the sources as they are supposed to.

Would be nice..

The frustrated dream of MI3.

It's been a month since Hugo Barra made ​​those comments (in "a few weeks", he said) and still no source code.
Is now reaching the end of the trial period of the Android development for MI3 on this website.
Developers are already getting tired of it.
And users like me are already planning to resell the mobile we thought, with your design and specifications and knowing it would be released "soon" the source code would be one of the best phones of the moment.
For that, stay Xiami no sales, no customers, no developers and only (yes) MIUI fanatics. Nothing more.
Sad end to what could have been a nice story. Thanks, Xiaomi, frustrate many dreams. The source code will come when people least expect or need: when developers of the best roms third have already thrown in the towel. :crying:

Damn, I just got this phone coming from Optimus G pro. I was hoping for the great development considering the hardware this phone has. Hoping to get the source code soon.

Very selfish move Hugo

For me cyanogenmod is far better than miui of course miui has an eye candy looks but uses a lotta ram to run.come on men 2015 is coming release the kraken now I mean the source code.please we beg you not every one like MiUi

 

[theloneseeker]

I think they will only release the kernel sources after the Miui with Android Lollipop base.They know that if they release sooner the Cm will take over Mi3 with Cm12

Spam Hugo barra?

How about spamming him on google plus? not many comments in there.....

 

[zelendel]

That's because they keep getting deleted.

 

[Ulver]

Well that's good news for Mi3 owners (if it actually comes true). It be would be nice to see the Mi4 kernel source get released considering their the same thing. But it seems like Xiaomi is going to release Mi3 sources but keep Mi4 closed. Yay

[gamesky]

Patience people? Or people on this earth just impatience...

Patience people? Or people on this earth just impatience...

Patience ????? Xiaomi has Crossed Patience Limit and Its Reaching Alarming Point....They are just breaking GPL Rules...They exist here once if they enter US selling this device it will be banned within no time without kernel sources under GPL...

 

[Gnome]

If Xiaomi will sell their product in the US, Apple will definitely eat them. Lol! Mi Launcher really looks like the iOS launcher and Apple will definitely sue them for that. I know Xiaomi knows it thats why they keep it in Asia, and that's why they're not a good follower of the GPL, coz if they're in the US they'll definitely need to release the code after the device. Tsk!

 

[MTAsaFAN]

Sooo no chances guys?

 

[xiaomimi3w]

Hugo bara is ignorant, smiling, talking about youth and positive energy ....etc
But we the users don't give a single f... about it we need the friging sorcery codes and we'll be full of youth and energy guaranteed.
