How to Update Xiaomi Mi 4 and Mi 3 to Android 7.0 Nougat Using ASOP Custom ROM
Not only Google and Motorola users, now owners of Xiaomi Mi 4 and Mi 3 can update their device to Android 7.0 Nougat, thanks to developers of XDA who quickly built this ROM.
Xiaomi has a knack of not delivering the software updates on time. Sometimes, the company takes more than a year to update their devices to latest Android version.
For an example, Android Nougat is already rolling out to Moto G (4th Gen) devices in India and Xiaomi's similarly priced device- the Redmi Note 3 still runs Android 5.1.1 Lollipop, which is underwhelming.

Step 4: Boot into Recovery Mode
Now, you need to boot into recovery mode by powering off the device and pressing the volume down and power button simultaneously to boot into recovery mode. Wipe the complete data in your smartphone and flash the downloaded files.
