It has been more than 45 days since Google released the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update, but Xiaomi is yet to share its update plans for the freshest release of Android for its various budget and mid-range devices.

However, if you want Android 6.0 running on your Xiaomi Mi 4i, you don’t have to wait for the chinese manufacturer to release the update. An unofficial port of CM13 is now available for the Mi 4i, and you can install it right now.

CM13 is the Marshmallow based version of the popular CyanogenMod ROM. Team CM hasn’t yet released the CyanogenMod 13 officially yet but source code for the ROM has already been released, and this Mi 4i CM13 ROM is only based on the source code.

This Xiaomi Mi 4i CM13 ROM is in very early stage of development, so don’t expect it to be your daily driver yet since some of the major functionalities aren’t working on the ROM yet.

Below is the list of things not working on the ROM so far:

  • Sim
  • Audio
  • Sensors
  • Location
  • MTP

You can grab the Xiaomi Mi 4i CM13 ROM from the download link below and simply flash the ROM via TWRP along with Marshmallow compatible Gapps.
