Time ago we had reported the news of a delay for the release of stable ROMs, China and Global, based on the new MIUI 9. After having released the weekly versions for all the devices in the list of devices that would have been reached by the update of the operating system, Xiaomi has announced that for the release of the relative Stable ROMs it would take longer than expected as the job would be greater than expected.
La first communication he mentioned to mid October which, however, we have already passed and in fact we were eagerly awaiting the release or new official communication from Xiaomi. Unfortunately, there was no release but one new communication by the company.
Despite the fact that the ROM change process has become very simple nowadays, for the less "chubby" there is nothing but waiting. But how much more?
This question was answered by Xiaomi's deputy commercial director, Huang Longzhong, specifying that times are expanding because the main objective of the new MIUI is precisely stability and stability takes time and I work.
The Deputy Director has revealed that, under normal conditions, without pressure, the release of a first stable version would require a couple of months. This timing would coincide with mid October, since around August 20 we got the release of the MIUI 9 weekly, but it's not all gold that glitters.
In fact the specificity of the stability of the new operating system takes longer and Longzhong wanted to specify that the new one MIUI 9 stable will arrive not before late October / early November and the first version will be the 9.0.2.0, as revealed on Weibo by an indiscretion.
We do not know for sure the timing, but now we really are! So if you want, you can safely wait for the update notification for your device and ... if you have one Xiaomi Mi 6 you will surely be among the first!

I own a Redmi 3 Pro purchased in September 2016 and I really liked the update to MIUI 9 arrived last month but, in the end, as much as MIUI is a cut above other GUIs for Android, it is always and only a GUI. . Rather, and here excuse me the author of the article if I go OT, it would be interesting to know if Xiaomi is going to patch wpa_supplicant; guaranteeing security updates (especially for such a glaring bug) for Xiaomi would be a plus not from poco and it would save me and other users from having to switch to Lineage that it already has...

the patch in question will probably be released by Google in November and then I suppose xiaomi will bring it back to the miui as everyone will do.
That I know Lineage has released a patch to mitigate the problem, but it does not solve it completely, for that you have to wait for Google
I received the fix this morning, what about if not "Chapeau, Xiaomi"!
