Last updated: November 11, 2026. Short answer: LineageOS 24, based on Android 17, was released on October 11, 2026 with official builds for 24 Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO devices, from the Xiaomi 12 and 13 series and POCO F3/F5/F6 Pro to the Redmi Note 8, Note 9, Redmi 9 and Redmi 12C. Two more Xiaomi phones (Mi 11 Pro and Mi 11i / Redmi K40 Pro) moved to LineageOS 23.2 at the same time. If your phone is on the list you can install Android 17 without waiting for HyperOS 4, but you need an unlocked bootloader and a clean install.

Moved to LineageOS 23.2 (Android 16) instead: Mi 11 Pro (mars) and Mi 11i / Redmi K40 Pro / K40 Pro+ / Mi 11X Pro (haydn). More devices are added as maintainers finish them, so check the LineageOS device list for the current status of your phone.
Not on the list: no current Xiaomi flagship (Xiaomi 14, 15 or 17 series) and no Redmi Note 12–15 has an official LineageOS 24 build yet. For those, unofficial builds exist on XDA and 4PDA (for example for the POCO X7 Pro), and crDroid 13 (also Android 17) is official for some of them.
What’s new in LineageOS 24
- Android 17 base with security patches up to October 2026. It’s out months ahead of HyperOS 4 for many of these phones, several of which (Xiaomi 12 series, Redmi Note 8/9, Redmi 9) will never get Android 17 from Xiaomi.
- Browser flashing: a new flash.lineageos.org tool installs via Fastboot or ADB directly from Chrome/Edge over WebUSB, without installing Platform Tools. The wiki instructions remain the supported way.
- Updater: redesigned, and updates are now streamed on A/B devices, so they install much faster.
- Apps: new image editor Canvas, Material 3 Expressive across the built-in apps, faster Twelve music player, PWA shortcuts in the Jelly browser.
- Older devices on Linux kernels 4.4 and 4.9 stay on LineageOS 22.2, which is why some older Xiaomi phones didn’t move up.
How to install LineageOS 24 on a Xiaomi phone
- Unlock the bootloader (this erases the phone): Xiaomi bootloader unlock on HyperOS.
- Update the stock firmware first. Most device pages on the LineageOS wiki require a specific HyperOS or MIUI firmware version before installing. Flash the required stock build from our firmware page if needed.
- Install ADB and Fastboot (or use flash.lineageos.org in Chrome).
- Download the LineageOS 24 build and the recovery image (and on some devices
vendor_boot.imgordtbo.img) for your codename from the wiki. - Follow the device’s Installation page exactly: flash the recovery, boot into it, Factory reset → Format data, then Apply update → Apply from ADB and
adb sideload lineage-24.0-…-nightly-codename-signed.zip. - Google apps: LineageOS ships without Google Play. Sideload MindTheGapps 17 right after the ROM, before the first boot. Alternatives are compared in our GApps guide.
Already on official LineageOS 23.2? You don’t need to wipe: use the wiki’s Upgrade to a higher version of LineageOS guide for your device.
Things to know before switching from HyperOS
- Camera: LineageOS uses its own camera app (Aperture); photos are usually weaker than Xiaomi’s camera, especially at night. A GCam port helps on many models.
- Banking apps and Google Wallet may not work because the bootloader stays unlocked.
- Missing Xiaomi features: no HyperOS AI features, Xiaomi cloud, Mi Share or Game Turbo.
- Going back: flash the stock Fastboot ROM for your region with Mi Flash (Clean all). Check anti-rollback before flashing an older stock build.
