[ROM][UNSTABLE][5.1.1] MIUI9 testing on Osprey

[nicolasmart]

You want MIUI 9? There are still no fancy threads for MIUI 9 on osprey. I tried to port it. Now people should test it!

Installing is usual - MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR OLD ROM, Wipe, Install the new zip. GApps are included Out-of-the-Box.

After installing:
1. Tell if it boots

• If it doesn't: say what SKU is your phone (for example mine is XT1441)

2. Tell us what works and what doesn't
3. If at least calling works and Wi-Fi works, you can try using it as a daily driver. Tell us how battery goes.
Do all that in the "Reviews" tab on the top of this thread.

I'm going to try it out, too. And I'm going to tell you what happened.

Download the ROM through the "Downloads" tab.

==================================================

UPDATE: Base Android changed to Marshmallow by requests from this thread and for better compatibility.

Changelog:

2017.10.29 - Test4 (Lollipop):
* Reverted base to Lollipop. Looks like even Mi 4 isn't compatible with our device. I'm going to upgrade back to Marshmallow or Nougat when official MIUI 9 comes out.
* We have some progress - the kernel now works and the phone starts booting. It hangs on the boot animation. Please send logcats. I will look through mine, too.

2017.10.28 - Test3 (Marshmallow):
* Switched base to Marshmallow
* Also not booting because of the wrong architecture.

2017.10.26 - Test2 (Lollipop):
* Flashing but not booting

2017.10.26 - Test1 (Lollipop):
* Initial Release
* Not flashing

GApps are included out of the box, so don't worry about that. Again, don't plan to use this as a daily driver. Just test it and tell if it works.

If there is some problem ,then its wouldn't hard brick my device, right?I have only one phone ?

Don't worry! It won't hard brick it. You will just need to reflash your ROM with something stable, like Lineage OS, for example.

Ok then, I'll flash it ASAP

 

[mg_jishad]

It will be nice if there is marshmallow or Nougat.

Flashing it ASAP :good:

I'm sorry. In MIUI it doesn't matter that much what Android version are you running. And I don't think Lollipop is obsolete. I just chose it because Redmi 2 runs our chipset and it's the easiest device to port from.

UPDATE: Zip File doesn't flash. Will fix ASAP.

Project Updated!

Using Marshmallow port from Redmi 3S. Edited kernel. Try it out and see if it boots. There must be quite some bugs. But I want to see if it boots.

Go ahead and try it out if you have already downloaded another stable ROM like Lineage to flash after you try this one.
