Glad your enjoying it, love mine and for that price.
This is the guide I used for the GCAM, no need to root and once installed you still get the OTA updates

Xiaomi Mi A1 arrived, it's pretty unbelievable how good it is for £140. Granted I'm not a power user* but after messing about with it for an hour or so it seems to be nearly as good as the Nexus 6P it replaced, only (over) half the price. Battery seems okay but I haven't had it for a full day yet so we'll see how it goes tomorrow. Camera is the other thing I haven't properly tried yet but I think I'll do the GCAM thing first as suggested by @CanonAxe
* it's good enough to run a selection of Chrome, camera, music, maps, messages, etc. all at the same time
