Kernel source codes for the
Xiaomi Mi2 turn up on GitHub,
custom ROMs
coming soon?
A few months back there was
news that Xiaomi would be releasing the
kernel source codes for their
phones. Since that
first news nothing else has been mentioned of Xiaomi’s
open source intentions, but the
kernel source code for the
Xiaomi Mi2 has managed to make it’s way in to the public domain.
The
kernel source codes for the
Xiaomi Mi2 are being hosted on
GitHub here and can be freely downloaded by anyone with an interest in creating a new
custom ROM for the popular Mi2.
If these files do in fact contain everything
developers need then this could be an exciting time for Xiaomi owners who have had not choice but to run Xiaomi’s MIUI rom. Which
custom ROM would you like to see hit the
Xiaomi Mi2 first?
CyanogenMod, Pacman, Paranoid
Android, or something else?
