Hello... I own a mi pad 1 and its running miui with android 3 or 4 I think.

Newpipe works but barely. Same for other stuff. Last year I got China rom I guess but that changed the ui.

Can you point me where to get started? I would love to use this device as its currently just a dump tablet with limited features.

Sure!

Actually MIUI has Android 4.4.2 KitKat.

I repartitioned the ROM partition by following this guide:

And downloaded the ROM files form here:

China ROM is really bad as it can lead to black screen with the tablet becoming unresponsive.

What is the lineageos you use based on? What android version?

Version 7 Nougat
