Nobody can try it, because there isn't a Download Link?

 

[DimitrisVerlis]

Bugs? VoLTE? Battery life? Camera quality and errors?

Thank you for download link!
And what exactly is NOT working? Or you mean just various possible bugs?

Thanks for asking. I've added status on #2

If I am on official global ROM, I need — Advanced wipe, wipe: dalvik, cash, data, system; or just wipe data?
And after flash will be TWRP still working, so I can return to backup without PC?
Sorry if my questions are a little nubish, my previous devise was sony, on 5 android, nougat and xiaomi are still complicated for me.

Nice seeing Lineage coming, thanks Xuefer.
Won't install until wifi/bluetooth/sound works, but I'm already excited

what about "RIL get restarted periodically" :cyclops:
wifi(with correct mac)/bluetooth done

ear-piece/speaker doesn't work for now but all other seems fine, including sound over bluetooth, sound over Wireless Display

it's really hard to track things down, took me hours to get each problem fixed. let's hope if someone donate

it depends on what you mean by "official"
I made both this ROM and this thread, yes, official
for LineageOS: since there's no kernel source release by xiaomi, i guess it won't be accepted by LineageOS
for other independent work on same goal, there is, however comes with bloat-ware, can be found on miui.com thread

I hope this becomes official and maintained / developed.

you need to:
back up data if you want
wipe cache if you want
wipe data is required (which also wipe dalvik-cache)

to flash back MIUI, restore data (or wipe data), flash MIUI full zip
as of now this version: do NOT auto reboot, do NOT reboot using GUI button. hold hardware button key for a few seconds so it power off, then power on, you're good to go, wait a few minutes for the initial boot
