Interesting; I've been eyeing the Xiaomi devices for a while. The github issues are saying that some drivers are missing though.

I have been using MI3 for a while now, I can say the device is great. The only problem with it is that no other custom rom is available for it, so I have to stick with MIUI. It is going to change now that they have made the kernel sources available

A quick google showed the following cyanogen mod flash on the MI3.

that ROM is not stable. It has many bugs along with random reboots.
