Android P Treble GSI

Has anybody tried the Android P DP4 GSI on the Xiaomi Mi 8/ Mi 8 SE?
Couldn't get the treble P GSI to boot on my Mi 8 SE but I managed to get the Oreo GSI running (doesn't have notch support though).

Which GSI booted on your SE?
Other Mi8 SE users reported that every GSI they flashes resulted in a bootloop.
Can you also mention the last MIUI version you had when you flashed a GSI?
As for P, you tried the semi-GSI, right?
Some people said that they had to fix things themselves for the image to boot but did you try flashing Magisk or setting Selinux to permissive? There should be a "permissiver" zip on the P gsi thread if I'm not mistaken.
dm-verity and selinux could cause a bootloop.

Got my Mi8 SE running MIUI 9 Chinese.
Unlocked the bootloader and flashed the latest Xiaomi.EU MIUI 10 ROM as a base and then tried both: GSI for phh-Treble AOSP and Resurrection Remix phh-Treble. Both worked surprisingly well, the notch being detected was the main issue. I followed this guide on xda.
Yes it was the P semi-GSI that resulted in a bootloop. Might try the permissiver zip.

Been wanting to get the 8 se, but I've been waiting to hear if phh-treble and other GSIs work before buying. other than notch problems are there any other major issues? Once P is released and phh-treble is updated to android 9 the notch won't be a problem anymore due to AOSP notch support.

Running lineage GSI on SE too without issues (except some full screen apps which do not support notch). The minimum brightness is a bit high.

Can you point me to a guide to run Lineage os or RR on out SE?
I am familiar in flashing custom for many years but i am new to treble and just heard about it.

Unlock your bootloader, flash a TWRP and format your data partition. Then flash and try to boot the latest xiaomi.eu rom. If you succeed, format /data /system /cache and flash /system with an arm64 GSI for A only devices such as https://github.com/phhusson/treble_...d/lineage-v21/system-arm64-aonly-gapps-su.img

ok, i am running xiaomi.eu rom so thats allready done.
The img i download is allready the lineage os, what i see
And is there a completely different forum/site where just. only trebel based custom roms are stored and discussed.
Is it gapps included, because normally it has to be flashed separtly.
Can you just format and go back to any miui rom, and when wanted to trebel based, just flash img file in /system again
Sorry for all the questions

Gapps are included in the above link. You don't need to flash anything else. And yes you can always flash the stock rom. Just remember to erase /data when you change between MIUI & AOSP based ROMs.

ok, so its like normal business.
Normally when i switch between custom i allways full wipe
/dalvik
/data
/cache
/system
As long as format data was once, i dont have problem..
Can you provide links for more like RR for SE?
I didnt knew there was development at all for SE on custom roms
EDIT: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...opment/resurrection-remix-phh-treble-t3767688
this one is for RR, and if i am correct you linked me to the first in the V5 section, so the xiaomi mi 8 se is a ARM64 A-only device?
But what is the difference between gapps and vanilla

Gapps include google services, vanilla does not.
Mi 8/SE are ARM64 A-only devices. You can try flashing any treble based rom with a high chance to operate normally. With a decent treble implementation, there is no need for custom rom development. The device specific blobs are moved to a separate partition and are provided by vendor.

Does the system detect the notch on lineage?

install is real fast, and phone is very quick
after trying treble...
i tried to go back to miui backup..
It boots fine, but i cant get past pin code?
I know 100% its the right code, does it have to do with trying treble?

Notches are "expected" on AOSP only with P and newer Android versions.
It probably can be modded but since P is around the corner, it might not be worth it.

[DEV][TREBLE] P-based vendor implementation

I guess that's going to be helpful for both developers and users.
Info:
P-based vendor up to date with Lineage 16.0 device trees and kernel
Full and proper support of the versioned VNDK and linker namespace isolation
Instructions:
I'm not going to provide them, just head here instead: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/how-to/treble-stock-to-treble-everything-to-t3793734
As usual, it requires repartitioning.
Downloads:
Treble-enabled unofficial Lineage 16.0 build (already includes vendor) not updated since 05.04.2019
vendor.img and boot.img (01.05.2019)
Source code:
Common tree
Device tree
Kernel patch
Vendor blobs
Notes:
I did it for pure fun and I'm not going to provide any extensive support. So don't expect me to update it daily and fix every bug you'll cry about.
Just like any other proper Treble implementation, this doesn't include IMS blobs on the vendor partition. So no out-of-the-box VoLTE on your fancy GSIs.
Basic functionality is verified with AOSP P GSIs

Amazing! Thanks Flex!

And before anyone actually asks that: yes, it works with official Q GSI without any modifications, but has Wi-Fi issues just like everyone else.

Awesome news and great work!
Thank you so much for this.

Amazing work Bra but you already know that xD

Another great work from you. Kudos.

MASTER!

Awesome stuff, thanks for this.

can i ask . i want to flash android Q so i just need the vendor only right?

Your on on this device is amazing, than you so much!

Great job man! Thanks

What issues? Wifi completely not working or..?

Hi @flex1911
I tried everything, but your vendor and your LineageOS gives me black screen on Tissot.
Also it corrupts my recovery, I can't boot into it :/
I have this issue after flashing the "boot.img"

Is boot.img the kernel? Sorry if it's a stupid question, and does it work with 4.9 kernels?

Touch Screen
Hello community, I have a problem when I install a recovery : TWRP (different versions), Orange Fox, Pitch Black, etc ... The installation works but the touch screen does not work. I managed to install different Custom Rom with the commands ...
forum.xda-developers.com

So custom roms have problem with this touchscreen but if i use TWRP with stock rom i will have the same problem or it is only related with the rom?

Reddit Note 10 Pro Updates
OrangeFox Recovery R11.1_3 - UNOFFICIAL | Android 12/13.
Updated: 12/04/'23
Changelog:
• Corrected version naming (R11)
• Synced the latest OrangeFox source
• Updated Magisk to 26.1
• Updated the kernel
Notes:
• There are 2 versions. One for MIUI and one for AOSP. The MIUI version includes the new touchscreen driver and does not support EROFS and F2FS compression (The MIUI version can also be used for crDroid for example since the kernel shipped with that ROM does not support EROFS or F2FS compression)

Thanks. Is it true that with orange fox i can still get miui updates?
And also where can i find it? If it is at telegram and is forbidden to share the link please send me a pm

Question Treble compatible

since this device is fully compatible with project treble, can I just flash GSI and not worrying about bug or breaking my phone? or it's just a bad idea?

you can flash GSI image from here https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
