I am also disappointed in EOL for MTK version. Just as I installed EU rom they discontinue it. China rom is healthy and updatable. I hope XIAOMI EU will reconsider!
Thanks
Very desapointed with xiaomi.eu for letting Redmi Note 3 MTK down. Last available ROM was downloaded by almost 5000 users. Meanwhile, SE version by less than 400... And they have 9.5 update! And maybe Miui 10. Cannot understand.
