          @hannescam What channel are you on? and what happens when you use the System Settings Update button.

              @hannescam It may be that the port has only recently reached the state where it gets OTA updates.

                @hannescam According to here it is fully supported https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/surya so I can only think it was missed of the list due to it being a veriant of another one on the list. Maybe someone else can confirm as I don't have one either.

                    Is the bootloader already unlocked? If not, count on another week to do that (there is a waiting time).

                        Yeah, that's very different. Xiaomi devices are a bit of a pain to unlock: they require a specific tool that only runs on Windows, there is a waiting time, and you need to register with your phone number, as far as I know.

                            That is good information for those interested in getting a Xiaomi device. Thanks! :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

                              @moem it would be nice if there would be a disclaimer on the ubports site for the xiaomi poco x3 nfc

                                    @hannescam That is a general Xiaomi thing, and I don't think it's UBports' job to warn for that.

                                        I don't know for sure... after all I've never even held a Xiaomi in my hands. But I don't see a reason why not. I think people generally do that.

                                            @hannescam i can use it while in the waiting period
                                            and i i wonder if it would be possible to unlock it without waiting
