  • Nearly done! Migration cleanup is mostly done. There are a small number of issues left that we continue to work on, but all the heavy lifting is done.

Code:
#include
/*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM
 * before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
 */
CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit Gerrit Code Review.

INSTRUCTIONS
First time installing CyanogenMod 12.1 to your Xiaomi Mi3 or coming from another ROM:
  • Read the official Wiki page
  • Unlock your bootloader if you haven't done so already
  • Flash a custom recovery via Fastboot

  • Boot into Recovery
  • Perform factory reset
  • Flash the CM 12.1 zip from SD card
  • Flash GApps for Lollipop from SD card

  • Don't restore system data using Titanium Backup!
  • Restoring Apps + Data might cause problems and is not recommended, avoid it if possible!
Upgrading from earlier version of CyanogenMod 12.1:
  • Push the new CM 12.1 zip to your SD card
  • Boot into Recovery
  • Flash the CM 12.1 zip from SD card
  • Optionally flash the most recent GApps for Lollipop if you encounter problems

FAQ
  • ROOT! ROOT! Give me root or i'll die!!! Where root is???
  • First of all do not flash any supersu/superuser/superman zip package to get root. Go to Settings>Developement Settings>Root acces > Apps Only
  • Are these gapps <insert random gapps package here> working with cm12.1?
  • Use the suggested package
  • Why today I got no nightly?
  • There were a build error or it means there's something wrong with the rom and I've choosen to stop nightlies until the problem gets fixed
  • Why is TDB not working / supported?
  • Official CyanogenMod support requies Encryption support. With TDB we can't have an encrypted userdata partition, otherwhise one system will be able to use it and the other won't
  • When do I have to wipe data?
  • You must wipe data only when you're switching from another rom or migrating to Snapshot branch from Nightly and vice versa. You don't need to wipe data when you update in the same release channel.
  • Why no <insert miui feature here>?
  • Because this is CyanogenMod
  • Will you add <insert awesome feature here>?
  • I won't. If you want submit a commit to gerrit, where it will be reviewed.

The CyanogenMod team would like to thank everyone involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging & documenting! Enjoy!

Happy flash!
Known issues:
- on call the screen may stay on. It's not really a bug, cuz if we turn it off, then we'll get sod. Lock it ;)
- on soft reboot no sim: just reboot it, blob issue
- HDR pic when rotated 270° (mi logo on the bottom) can't be taken, blob issue

Conclusion after one hour of testing - ROM runs very smoothly. No difference to my prior "stable" ROM. Will keep it.

Thank you for your good work!

1)NFC on mi4 there isn't so need to delete nfc stuff
2) the screen doesn't rotate

This is official right?but the downloaded file name unofficial? Anyway good ROM!
Yes, this is official Cyanogen Mod 12.1 for Xiaomi Mi3w/Mi4 but it is still in active (beta) development and not finished so it is marked as unofficial until it is finished..

Linuxxxx - magnificent work, well done! Is encryption working? SELinux is in enforcing mode? 4K recording working?
