Hi guys,

First of all, this work is not mine, is from @ycjeson, I found it here: MIUI 8 For LeEco Cool1.
I decided to start this thread, because any information about LeEco Cool1 is difficult to find and in the most part it is in Russian or Chinese...


Get to work!

Do not forget to make a DUMP of your primary system partitions (like IMEI). Trust me, do it!!!
1) Tutorial here;
2) Needed tools here.

Install TWRP Recovery from BB72TT
Tutorial and download links here!

Install MIUI 8 and make root

1) I recomend a full wipe (cache, dalvik, data, system);
2) Put MIUI 8 and Magisk v10.2 into internal SD Card;
3) Move Magisk v10.2 zip to '/cache' partition using file manager of TWRP;
4) Install MIUI 8 via TWRP;
5) Reboot system without wipe anything (first boot will be long);
6) Reboot to TWRP;
7) Flash Magisk v10.2 zip from '/cache' partition;
8) Reboot system (may be fast);
9) Install phh's root manager apk and Latest Magisk Manager apk.
Optional to remove encryption from '/data' partiton:
10) Wipe data and cache;
11) Reboot system (boot will be very long, be patience);
12) Put Magisk v10.2 into internal memory;
13) Fash Magisk v10.2 zip again;
14) Reboot system (may be fast);
15) Install phh's root manager apk and Latest Magisk Manager apk.

DOWNLOAD ROM

A big thanks for your idea of introducing the ROM here.

I own this device, it has a lot of potential from software development angle but unfortunately the lack of popularity for this device is one the main reasons why devs are not interested in developing custom ROMs

Also this device runs LE ECO EUI hence I hope Le eco will come up with some awesome updates (if not then hope someone takes the initiative for some custom ROMs specially a lineage OS ROM would be perfect)
