It seems perhaps a mirage Android 9.0 Pie on the old one We are A1? Some time ago we saw a benchmark appeared on the database of GeekBench that showed us just the first Android device with a Xiaomi license, with the latest big release of the green robot. The Chinese company's development team is definitely at work on the official release of Android 9 on Mi A1, but this is slow to arrive and so here comes the answer, as always, quickly and accurately, from the world of modding.
Xiaomi Mi A1 receives Android 9 Pie thanks to LineageOS 16
Maybe for someone this is also a certainty, given the series of unfortunate unfortunate upgrades, which in the past may have done more harm than good to the Android One device. But coming back to us, it is known LineageOS 16 to provide Google's latest OS, Custom Rom which has taken up the heavy legacy of CyanogenMod.
As a reminder, we remind you that the LineageOS ROM is based on the operating system Android (AOSP), which arises from the ashes of the best known Cyanogenmod. Its aims are to resume the development from where the CyanogenMod project had stopped but at the same time to break away from its past with Cyanogen Inc. Nightly they are compiled and built automatically every week always based onlatest version of Android and including the latest security patches every month. (source Wikipedia).
But apart from the historical preamble, if you want to try the new LineageOS 16 and then Android 9 Pie on your Xiaomi Mi A1, we remind you that the installation provides, as for the other ROMs, the unlocking the Bootloader and the presence of one modified recovery compatible, for example, the TWRP. So you just have to stay download by clicking on the button below. The build was released by poco, as always on the realm of modding, that is XDA Developers.
