New device: Xiaomi Redmi 4X (xiaomi-santoni)

postmarketOS Bot requested to merge pinoaffe:master into master

Created by: pinoaffe

First of all: thank you to everyone who helped me during the porting, it was quite a lot of fun to port pmos to my phone (xiaomi redmi 4x aka santoni).

What's working:

  • screen
  • usb otg
  • touch
  • flashing using fastboot

What does not work:

  • usb networking
  • wlan
  • everything else

It runs on the recently released official android kernel for the device, with a few patches to make it compile. Weston works, kde plasma works as well but is slow and seems buggy (the relative size of things on the screen often makes no sense at all, ui elements overlap, etc). I'm going to try to get at the very least touch and usb networking to work, but have no clue as to whether I'll manage.
