Hi!

Where did you find that build?

Thanks.

hi [MENTION=1187148]infrag[/MENTION] just a dumb question

is the level of Camera2API is defined by hardware limitation or software limitation? if software limitation, is it in the vendor image or system image?

I realized that our Camera2API level is Full, not Level 3. maybe this is related to why we can't install GCam other than BSG version?

1. someone said twrp backup and restore causes a brick device. is this true for this build? thanks

2. Any got NFC payments working without having to use magisk? (I don't really want to root)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rizahakam:
1. I think it's better to use manual backup rather than twrp backup as I already seen several cases that their phone become bricked due to restore backup from twrp. you can use Migrate to backup all your apps and let that app restore all apps for you

2. I think Google Pay is working as this rom is passed SafetyNet

Do i need to flash dm verity force encryption if im coming from latest miui eu beta?

I'm afraid that i need to format the whole internal storage because of the encryption.

Is IR unlocking and telephoto cam with bsg cam work on the latest build?

Thanks.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rizahakam:
I think you need to format data to decrypt the storage. just backup all your file including photo.

my way is always flash dm-verity whenever I flash new rom and always after flash rom before flash GApps and other things. already happened two times that I forgot to flash dm-verity and I need to format data again.

IR Face Unlock and telephoto GCam is working flawlessly on latest LOS
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] riyosakura:
what about stock camera app on LOS is it good enough for daily driver?

i will install gcam, but a stock camera app for recording and bugless is always needed.

how come for me it is not working??

there must be something wrong??
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rizahakam:
tried to clean install again, make sure you perform as per my replied on our regional forum.

if the problem still happened, tried to flash whole MIUI (can be from MIUI custom rom), after that wipe system but don't wipe data and follow as per instructions
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] majusss:
Where is the source code for this? I'am sure enough not flashing some random .zip file which circulates on the internet :confused:
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] nfsmw_gr:
I would like that as well and try to build it if I can too, but the op doesn't speak much.

Hopefully the source will be available once this becomes official.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rizahakam:
why you said some random zip? can't you appreciate what [MENTION=1187148]infrag[/MENTION] do to bring LOS to dipper?

also lot of people already tried this rom and lot of them satisfied including me.

also I believe you know website called Google right?

I don't know wether this one is the correct one or not, but what I found from google is below

https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_xiaomi_dipper
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] majusss:
It's not the correct source, since the latest commit there is 17 days old, but the latest LOS release from him here is 13.12. Sorry but without a source it's very hard to appreciate it. How do you want to use this kind of operating system? He could literally implemented backdoors to get everyones logins and bank data, how can we now?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] nfsmw_gr:
I can understand both sides since I personally stand right in the middle, well one can use the rom, and other should not if he's afraid.

I'll personally wait till this is official with source.

Device certified using Mi8

[MENTION=1187148]infrag[/MENTION]

Hi

I see that you are using Oneplus6 fingerprint to get the device certified.

Can you use?

ro.build.fingerprint=Xiaomi/dipper/dipper:8.1.0/OPM1.171019.011/V9.5.9.0.OEAMIFA:user/release-keys

ro.build.description=dipper-user 8.1.0 OPM1.171019.011 V9.5.9.0.OEAMIFA release-keys

So our device is recognized as a Mi8 and certified. Maybe is better to use Oneplus6, not sure.

Thks a lot for your work.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] fedef12evo:
Best aosp ROM, will be updated every week? Thanks
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rizahakam:
then use other rom or just use MIUI from Xiaomi. is it better for you right?

appreciate not related to wether he release his source or not. you can ask politely like [MENTION=3382081]nfsmw_gr[/MENTION] and didn't insult the developer that maybe he install backdoor or something like that.

he did it on free without you paid anything. also if what you accused is correct, I think lot of people will aware should their credit card been charged or something like that.

like I said previously, if you didn't like developer ways, don't use it. no one forced you to use this rom. why you must insult the developer
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rodries:
I think you have no idea how to build a rom. There is a manifest that join a lot of repositories in one directory using the repo tool.

There is no offence to the developer in stating that closed-source software is not good for privacy and security and can contain backdoors, it's just a fact, and all in all he's just a stranger on the internet for us. We're obviously thankful to [MENTION=1187148]infrag[/MENTION] for his work, but being able to give a look to the actual source code and his commits over plain Lineage and being able to build it on our own would be much, much better, and infrag's reputation into the community would also benefit from it too.

Looking forward for his position on the topic! :)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] majusss:
I'am sorry if somebody felt hurt by my statements, they were not ment to hurt peoples feelings. I just don't understand, why somebody invests so much time and then is degrading it's work by make it closed source.

Wow a 3 post wonder user who like to winge.

The source code is on lineage github or lineage gerrit.

I have some minor modifications other than that and I pick other lineage changes from their gerrit.

Even if I had complete sources up on github with all the changes I use from gerrit it wouldnt mean i couldnt slip something extra into my builds...

Basically if your that paranoid then dont flash any .zip on xda or the internet!
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
Closed source?

Dude get a life.

Just because I havent updated my personal github doesnt mean it closed source. If you want to see where my changes are just ask. Dont go all spastic about it and acuse me of being closed source!

Your degrading me and the work i've done with the builds I post by casting suspicion upon me. Why not just ask where my changes are and I'll point you to them?

infrag new build is coming?:)
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
Who said this is closed source?

While its true I havent updated my github it doesnt mean I havent uploaded my changes to lineage gerrit. (see my link I posted above)

Also I havent uploaded changes like aptx libs or the oneplus6 fingerprint change as lineage wont accept them anyway.

There are a couple of other commits I have that I havent uploaded quite yet. I've been busy working on multirom and didnt realise anyone actually cared about looking at my github. If you read the thread the last link I gave to lineage gerrit the guy complained hes not a dev and doesnt want to read that.

I cant tell you every single commit I've picked from lineage as I use a repopick script and it changes every time.

My reputation is kind of irrelevant. I make builds for myself and those who want it. If I get useful feedback I try to take that into account.

Negative feedback like 'why dev closed source?' ... change the way your asking your question please.

I've been trying to get multirom working properly. Its been a cow...

My builds of TWRP work find in android-9.0 tree.

Multirom however want to work in 8.1 omni tree.

So far no luck.

I've tried adapting Multirom to android-9.0 tree but its turned out to be a fair bit of work. N

Now I've got some family stuff happening the next few weeks and my kids have surgery in hospital for Christmas so I'm kinda stuck for time.

I can do a basic lineage build but I've got no personal extra changes from last build. It will just be whatever lineage has changed since then if you want that?

I clean installed your Rom. Flashed Magisk and my Kernel. I got the relevant email from Google aknowledging i have a 1+ and my play store says not certified.

Edit:

I cleared data of Play Store and Play Services and it got certified...no idea why.

So i guess it works
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rizahakam:
I can confirm that OP Fingerprint also not certified in my device. I'm only using Magisk, Lawnstep and Google Sans magisk module. did any of this make the device uncertified?

also I can confirm that build fingerprint poster by [MENTION=8083015]Dexer125[/MENTION] os certified as previously I'm change to that key.

regarding user who complaint that this build isn't safe, I suggested him to install MIUI as this come from Xiaomi which the maker of this device. I think he just troll with you without any knowledge about custom rom

[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] hypern0va:
Wow I surely didn't intend to start an argument with a developer I am grateful to, but man, you're wrong.

Partially open != open, and security-wise it is just equivalent to close sourced. One could add even just 10 code lines and insert a backdoor, a malicious behavior or whatever he wants.

I didn't even ask the question, and to me it seems not appropriate to get so triggered because someone asked for the actual source code. It is actually worrying tbh.

This is exactly the reason why building on your own (and, from the developer side, providing the possibility to do it and frequently even instructions on how to do it) is such a diffused practice in the open source environment!

If you don't think thrice before flashing a .zip or installing an .apk you found on the internet, taking the appropriate precautions, blame yourself when you won't be the only one owning your sensitive information.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
Wow. You clearly miss the point. You can build what I have. Its all there on lineage gerrit and github. Its fully working. Lineage gives instructions on how to build it. Just read mate...

I don't care if you ask WHERE my sources are. I care that you accuse me of doing this closed source which clearly is not the case. I also care how the questions are worded as accusations. If you can't understand that then you have more to worry about then what .zip file to flash or not to flash
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] hypern0va:
I don't think I even need to reply to this since you previously said by yourself that not all of your commits are public.

Listen man, this is the third post I make about this topic and the third time I have to repeat this concept: stating that in non-fully open source software there is the possibility (I'm not saying probability) of having maliciously behaving components is not an offence to the developer because it is an objective truth. I'm not saying that they're present in your ROM, what I'm saying is that no one except you can be sure there aren't. You should agree on that, right?

I don't get why you're making such a big mess about an objective fact statement: a compiled zip without the corresponding source = risk. Quote my words accusing personally you of having put a backdoor in the ROM if you can. I didn't even ask for the sources ffs, I defended the user who was getting attacked because he dared to do it! It is a perfectly legit question, and a negative answer can be equally legit if motivated.

...
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] infrag:
Your either a troll or just not that smart. I've explained I have upped all the sources needed to build this ROM. Any zip posted on XDA is questionable by your standards. Use the sources I've upped and build your own.

Please don't post here anymore as I've had enough of reading your posts. You keep repeating the same comments without acknowledging what I've said in reply. The sources are there. Just because they aren't on my personal github doesn't mean your right. Also even if I have them on my github what proof is there that I used them for the zip file I post? Just build your own then and move on...

[MENTION=1187148]infrag[/MENTION] dear just ignore these posts in the future.

You can't please everyone no matter how hard you try
[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] hypern0va:
As it should be when all/some sources are missing (which luckily isn't very common), it all comes down to the poster's reputation. By your standards, tomorrow I can post a Lineage-based pre-built ROM without sources, featuring a keylogging keyboard, and no one should dare to ask why the sources are not public.

I post here whenever I want, and if I read bull**** I call bull****.

I may have missed the right ones, but the sources I see in the first post are Lineage's ones: either you did not modify a single line or the complete sources corresponding to your builds are missing.

And sources aren't even strictly needed, I don't pretend them to be forcibly public, everyone can post a pre-built ROM without sources and users will decide whether to trust the poster or not, but if you get so much triggered if some user asks for the sources and start attacking him instead of providing a motivation for their absence you're on the wrong side, it doesn't matter if you have 500 times their posts.

[Xiaomi Mi 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Dev] rizahakam:
the user ask a legit question, but he also made statement that the work done by [MENTION=1187148]infrag[/MENTION] is just some random zip, and after that he make a statement that developer can make a backdoor to get all data.

I think lot of xda user is smart people, which will notice if developer put some backdoor. lot of people already flashed it and no one complaint that there is any suspicious app or behavior.

why he can't read people comment and review? this thread already have 70 page, which means already 700 post and no one ever said about any suspicious. I think it's quite clear whether developer put any malicious app or not.

and like I said previously, if the person didn't like this rom because lack of source (which isn't), he can use other rom or built the rom by himself. also you said yourself that you prefer to build by yourself, then why you didn't build the rom? don't use infrag source, do it from scratch from AOSP.

if you can't appreciate his work, don't use his work at all. I believe this applies to anything, not only developing rom
