[UNOFFICIAL] LineageOS 13.0 for Xiaomi Mi Pad 2

[Harrynowl]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android, which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

#include <std_disclaimer.h>
/*
* 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.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Bugs:
When you think you've found a bug, please make sure it's repeatable + not a one off. If it is you must provide a dmesg (dmesg > /sdcard/dmesg.txt) and a logcat (logcat -d > /sdcard/logcat.txt) from the on-device terminal emulator.

Wow, great! Thanks! I'll wait for working bluetooth before moving from RR. But I love the initiative, and I much prefer LineageOS to RR! Will you be moving to the development of 14.1 once the broken features of this ROM eventually are fixed?

You've done it
Subscribed, thank you for your time.
Maybe adding kcal support will help with colours.

Our device files can be used to build pretty much any M based ROM like Omni, AOSP and AOKP also

I actually started to read up on how to build roms myself last week, just to learn abit more..

I installed Linux, set up a github account and forked device tree and all that, but no time to finish it yet..

To help out, you'll need to add this to your .repo/local_manifests/roomservice.xml in whatever ROM you choose to build.

You often need to adjust the .mk files in the tree as AOSP will not build without changing "lineage_x" to "aosp_x" for example. Similar for Omni etc..

Devlopment on LineageOS 14.1 is started, but the aging Lolipop blobs are missing some symbols so it's very much a WIP. More focused on making 6.0 work properly

You can see any discussion/progress on our Github link.

Xiaomi released a broken, un-buildable one with the wrong defconfig. I have been fixing it here.
