Miui 8 China Developer Rom Based On Android Nougat 7.0 Available?

[Renth]

Hi there,

just wondering whether we finally got Android 7 for our device? According to these threads it should be the case:

• https://xiaomininja.com/2017/02/11/...i-8-china-developer-rom-7-2-9-is-rolling-out/
• https://www.getdroidtips.com/manually-update-redmi-note-2-miui-8-v7-2-9-android-nougat-2/

But I am currently using MIUI 8 Global 7.5.4 Beta which is still Android 5.0.2 - maybe this is due to not being developer ROM.

What I do not understand is the flashing guide from 2nd link: Do I have to install both versions? Recovery and Fastboot? And does anybody already have this ROM in use? Can it be just flashed over Global Weekly Beta?

Thanks for your responses!

Bye

No nougat for Redmi Note 2.
Do it with your own risk, but I wouldn't even try.
If Chinese rom were a nougat release, xiaomi.eu would have it.

This was also my impression. But at least MIUI Germany is also talking about these things: https://miui-germany.de/forum/thread/13473-changelog-miui-v8-7-2-23-7-4-20-china-rom/

I don't spreche Deutsch, but in the table at the end of this page I can clearly read
hermes Redmi Note 2 5.0
There is not even Marshmallow for RN2...are you really expecting Nougat???

Well I speak German but for me the list is confusing since it also says:

• Aktualisierte Geräte : ... Redmi Note 2 ... => Which means updatedd devices and:
• Optimization - Android N update (02-20)

I admit it might mean that all listed devices got some updates but not all of them received Android N (was really suprised and could not believe it myself). Anyway I asked within the changelog thread.
