I can confirm that if you don't wipe and format /data, the rom won't boot, also you have to backup your files before, becasuse the f2fs filesystem is crypted and if you don't do that you'll lose your files on internal storage.

The rom is great, no random reboots, camera is fully working and very light. Only i miss the network speed on status bar, maybe i haven't found it. Thanks for sharing your work

Is there a source thread for this file?
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mothzart:
Hi there :)

[a little off-topic, sorry]

My overall plan is to make a de-googled phone. So I tried to find a usable LG V20 by installing LOS 17.1 + microG + Aurora Store + Newpipe etc.

...but the biggest problem was to find a working LG V20 since all refurbished ones on AliEx are a lottery. My first order was H910PR (not H910) and the screen kept freezing (I got the refund) and the second one worked for approx. 20 minutes, froze ...and died (I'm sending it back tommorow).

And that's why I decided to switch to Xiaomi as my base phone:

Prices for a NEW Xiaomi are great and the specs are also good, but...

I am mostly a noob when it comes to "playing" with unofficial versions of LOS, so my questions are:

1) Can anyone predict an estimate when this OS will become official and have a nice step-by-step instructions and so on...

2) Did anyone tried using this phone as a base for a de-Googled phone? (device spoofing, microG etc.)

Thanks

EDIT:

3) If I were to install this unofficial ROM (and everything works, at least so-so :)) will this ROM automatically upgrade itself EVEN when there will be an OFFICIAL, stable version OR will I have to flash from scratch at some point?

"OP has a nasty habit of abandoning projects." ?

Seriously? People have real life and other things to do, do I get paid for this?

Maybe you could just switch to other ROMs or make it by yourself.

Thanks for such "encouraging" words, I will really consider to close this project.

Official Android 10 coming in a few weeks/months, hopefully. Hoping for new developments then, like integrated 48MP cam in this ROM. Apart from cam resolution, this ROM is working with zero issues for me, so I'm not updating because I'm scared it might run worse than before. Never change a running system!

Unlike the mentally impaired poster before me, I'm very thankful for tarkzim's work.

I know I sent you a few bucks, maybe I was the only one, maybe not, only you know. In any case, your build has serious problems and hasn't been updated in a long time, you can play the victim all you like but I've used a lot of lineageos builds and none of them remained un-updated for over a month while rebooting every day.

I'm glad a lineageos build exists for this device, but its not a very good build, if I'm honest.

First of all, i hope you guys to be calm down,

everyone here is trying to make this device better, and i have to say i do it on my free time,

i thought there shouldn't be so rush right?

And i know that current build has some issues to be addressed, i will find a way to look into it or use other's sources as a base.

honestly, remember that this is "Unofficial" build, which means that i can't guarantee any ETA.

The last, I've said so many times that i won't apply for Official LOS support and i don't want to do it, if someone wants to take over and make it official i will surely close it and let them do it.

So, i will still make builds from now.
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] mothzart:
[MENTION=10451071]seeyaomi[/MENTION]: I did NOT want to offend anyone, especially people that build LOS practically for free (ew. donations etc) - and I think it was pretty clear. My "damn:/" was targeted towards MYSELF, because as I said before I am A NOOB when it comes to flashing/rooting/unlocking etc. and I would be a bit scared to run an unofficial release. So I don't know where that "mentally impaired" came from (was it towards me even?)... it's not not like I wrote "damn those lazy SOB", right?

Anyway as I am writing here I might add that I finally ordered Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 and a I plan to build a de-googled phone on that.

Finally ONCE AGAIN - I have an utmost respect for all LOS programmers :)

Thanks for sharing the ROM. For me it worked on second try while flashing with Xiaomitools2 on Linux.

My phone was quite empty (data wise) before starting, that may have helped; it was just out of bootloader-unlock-cooldown this afternoon (and was as good as empty before that).

Roughly, my steps were:

* unlock bootloader (with Xiaomitools)

* flash TWRM (default via Xiaomitools)

* download vbmeta from an available source

* flash vbmeta with Xiaomitools

* dud on flashing ROM

* flash OF_avb_patcher_mauronofrio.zip with XMT2

* flash twrp-3.4.0-2-ginkgo-willow-mauronofrio.img with XMT2

* flash lineage-17.1-20200810-UNOFFICIAL-ginkgo.zip with XMT2

I am quite sure there are some duplicate steps, especially TWRM and vbmeta, but I was unable to find out whether the XMT2-supplied TWRP included vbmeta, and I was unable to find the correct way of flashing vbmeta (is it similar to TWRP and can I flash it to the recovery partition, or is it an alternative bootloader and to which partiton and under which name should it be flashed?)

So far no crashes; WiFi seems flaky, but that can be a signal issue. Phone calls and 4G run with no problem, I have not had time or use for more than that.

[MENTION=6407372]tarkzim[/MENTION], thanks for providing the ROM in the first place. Had I not found your thread, I would not have bought this (2nd hand) phone in the first place.

[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] :
Phone restarts or freezes randomly when lockscreen dim UI is on

Hello! I have been using the latest ROM since last Wednesday and it is very stable for an unofficial ROM! Everything has been working as expected except for some things:

When Lock Screen Display > Always on is on, and the phone is off and the display is present, the phone will sometimes hang, sometimes when receiving a call, playing music, and even just sitting there. Sometimes it even restarts.

Some status bar features and icons are badly misaligned when the display scaling is lower.

In fullscreen gestures mode, with the gesture guide on at the bottom of the screen, sometimes it has an unpleasant black rectangle around it that interferes with the rest of the contents of the screen.

Sometimes the status bar thickness is thicker than the notch.

USB OTG control is janky, I tried to file transfer from another phone to the note8, note8 being the host. It would not change from "charging" mode.

Those issues are the only ones I remember so far. The fingerprint detection is on point, one of the biggest pluses of this so far. Great job again tarkzim!

I am using the rom from FaXor. Bluetooth is alright
[Redmi Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] floopydisk:
Hey! I had flashed LineageOS as made by the OP but as seen before, bluetooth did not work. Looking through this forum I came upon FaXor's version and proceeded to flash that version. As far as I can see, everything is stable and is all working well. However my intent is to use this as my daily driver, so I was wondering whether, when OP posts an update to this ROM, will it be picked up by FaXor's version? Will I be able to update it without flashing OP's LineageOS or will I have to wipe and flash all over again.

If the answer is that I'll have to flash to switch back over, how likely is it that a dirty flash will screw over my phone, or is it relatively safe?

Thanks in advance.

The builds of tarkzim and FaXor are different. If you are satisfied with FaXor's version, then you should stick with it. But if you want to use tarkzims build, I recommend a clean flash. Unfortunately the bluetooth in his build does not work. I hope he will fix it soon.

[MENTION=6407372]tarkzim[/MENTION] I think the problem with the Bluetooth has to do with the UI that it reports it false.

I recently installed the last working ROM with Bluetooth that has the reboot issue (with that ROM I paired my Android smartwatch), then I upgraded the ROM with the non working Bluetooth but strangely enough my watch is working over Bluetooth and I get all notifications and can also send text messages over it.

But if I go into the WearOS app it says that it's not connected but it's working properly.

I can only think that the Bluetooth stack doesn't communicate correctly with the UI.
