The Silent Killer of Phones =========================== The other day I came accross a question about Android 15 on Ars Technica. I checked my phone, and found that my Android version is still 11. From web searches, I found that Xiaomi is not going to push any more upgrades to my phone. There are custom ROMs for some Android phone, and I'm looking for something I can install on mine. Most of the relevant search results are links to forum discussions. I also have found a guide at https://www.getdroidtips.com/android-13-redmi-10a/ for installing AOSP on Redmi 10A, but when I go to the section "Download Android 13 ROM", I find is a link to a forum in a language that looks like Russian to me. I don't see anything I can understand there. Random links lead me to other discussion in Russian. Why? The page referring me to that forum is in English. At least I've found that I don't have to use a Chinese MIUI I can get myself the European version. Following is a link to their page: https://miuirom.org/updates/europe That's it. The end of the phone's life cycle is a-coming. and I don't get any notification. If the phone becomes a paper weight, I can buy a new one from a shop. Hopefully, my next phone will not be a standard Android phone, but a Fair-phone or something with /e/OS installed on it. It's time to install ADB in case the phone is bricked.
