LineageOS and Xiaomi Mi8

Dear XDA Experts,
I would like to know if there's a LineageOS planned for Xiaomi Mi8.
Can omeone answer me please?

It is planned but firstly, Xiaomi must release the kernel source.

Flash TWRP 3.2.3
Full Wipe
Install newest xiaomi.eu
Restart once
Back TWRP and wipe Data, System, Cache
Format Data???
Install LOS image (system-arm64-aonly-gapps-su)
Restart

What's your Problem?
I told a way to install LOS. There is a way with more details.
I found no way exklusiv for Mi8. I read a lot of threads.!
And when you would read some more, you would know that Treble Rom's run on multi devices.

Does it mean that when I have a phone manufactured in 2018 then it's Project Treble full compativble and I can flash almost any rom to it or does it mean I can flash a rom from a similar device?
Dont laugh at noob question. Many times it saved my pocket

Sorry. I told you an easy way to install LOS 15.1 on your Mi8.
For more Information read this.
https://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/
Treble is quit new.
Short answer. Nearly the most mainstream treble Rom's work on Mi8. But not 100% exaktly. Mi8 notch for example.
So we need a Dev to integrate spezial Mi8 Things.
I hope I could help with the short way to install LOS 15.1.
Rest is yours.
PS.
Make a full Backup.
Test LOS. See whats work or not.
Search for missing, flashable Zip and integrate.
I found no Thread speziell for Mi8.
You can write a Guide what you did.

THANKS XDA Friend but my PT question was in general for all the phones Can You answer that or should I rewrite it in PM cause I may have been misunderstood (bad English).

Stable GSI Rom for A6 2018 (A600G)

So after Trying different PIE GSIs, I Found a less buggy GSI rom. It's "RR-P-v7.0.3-20191112-A64-A.img" that i found on @turbolukex5 thread on this link. https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...iscussion/gsi-expressluke-built-gsis-t4003457
basically i tested camera, BT,in call audio, Fingerprint and Mobile Hotspot. So far they work pretty nice. The only thing that doesn't work as of now is the MTP. So you need to reboot to TWRP to transfer files on storage.
If this thread is prohibited, kindly remove it. I just want to share what i found today. Thank you.

That's basically a bug which is present in almost every GSI. Use footej/open camera from play store instead. Those will also give you back some of the manual controls if you are into that sorta thing.

I already tried the kernel. I got a working MTP after reboot(bare bones, no GApps). But when i install GApps(Aroma) the rom is very sluggish and FP was broken during setup. So i did not finish the setup and i quickly reverted to stock. ?

I did not used magisk on setup. This are my steps:
-Flashed GSI
-Flashed Kraken kernel
-rebooted and did factory reset
-Resized the system to flash GApps.
-flashed GApps aroma.
And the phone is already sluggish. Any thoughts bro?

Would help you out much better if you could come at our telegram. But for now try doing everything first and reserve flashing kraken as last step also factory reset is unnecessary.

Back from LOS to MIUI

Hi,
I'm not fully happy with my LineageOS because I need to push a button before using the fingerprint. That's why I want switch to Xiaomi.eu MIUI 11.
Can I simply flash the ROM with TWRP or is anything else to do before?
Thanks a lot...

I think you need to wipe data and system and then flash miui.eu rom, but wait for more replies to be sure ?

It seems to be an exclusive feature from MIUI, i don't know why. That's why I'll give MIUI another try.

Probably not, ports from Nippon are SGSI (just a ripped out system part of the original device, without adaptations for other devices), afaik.

Maybe you are doing something wrong, maybe Project-Sakura is not fully compatible with Kirin, maybe you downloaded wrong version, idk...
Choose a normal GSI ROM, based on phh AOSP, that works on Kirin-devices.

As you can see there is practically no custom ROM for this device... My custom ROM is a modification of the stock firmware. So there's not much to check...
I know that you made some firmware for Nio. Maybe you'll want to build something for PStar? That would be great!
I installed your ROM's on PStar, but does not work NFC and MotCamera.

It would be wonderful to get a fully functional rom with good camera support. Magisk 25.2 does not work with stock rom.
