Mediatek MT8173 & MT8176 development
Hi folks, after I've long been working on my device and only made little progress in building LineageOS for my Xiaomi Mi Pad 3 I decided to look for other developers with similar devices.
My Mi Pad 3 (codename: cappu) is a tablet based on a Mediatek MT8176 SoC. It was launched in April 2017. The tablet comes with a 7.9" display with a resolution of 2048 pixels by 1536 pixels at a PPI of 326 pixels per inch. It is powered by a 2.1GHz/1.7GHz Hexa Core processor ( 2 x 2.1GHz Cortex A72 + 4 x 1.7GHz Cortex A53 ) and it comes with 4GB of RAM. The tablet packs 64GB of internal storage that cannot be expanded. It was shipped out with Android 7.0 (Miui) and is still on this version).
Two months ago Xiaomi finally released Kernel Source Code for my device. It was broken, but I fixed most of the conflicts, streamed the kernel up to latest linux-stable and added some features. I also tried to build LineageOS & AOSP trees, but I have to admit, I'm starting to get desperate. For this specific SoC - even it's predecessor MT8173 - there is no activie development. And that is what I am looking for!
I collected some devices that either use MT8176 SoC, or the older MT8173 SoC. Some of them have Kernel Sources, which I listed and linked below.
All questions, requests for help, suggestions, ... are welcome. If you own any of the listed devices feel free to write and help. This thread is also on Reddit.
