I wonder if a CFW ROM can become official...?
Does that mean, that Redmi Note 8 Pro is going to become "officialy" supported by LineageOS in (near) future?

Regards
LineageOS devices are all maintained by volunteer, given that the code is now under
the official LinageOS organization I think it's possible that the Note 8 pro will be added to the list of supported devices.
I'm not sure how that would work though given that this ROM requires you to install CFW first maybe the wiki will have some extra instructions.

If I recall, LOS is also developing their own recovery, which would make it possible to tuck the cfw flashing right into the installation process if they can make a recovery that supports the old non cfw boot along with a post cfw flash boot.

But I do wonder why LOS has opted to no long include support for root. They aren't going to lock things down as far as I know, but you'll have to go third party like Magisk or something to get your phone rooted.

How is the current camera support in this lineage version?

I would love to be able to take maximum advantage of 64mbit cam on this phone.

If not supportet atm, is there an ETA for full support, or a guide to force support?

Hi all, @theimpulson, is someone steel working on lineageos version ? As there isn't any commits on github.
Thanks a lot for all the works you've already done.
I am. See there are no commits as the source is already stable enough for Q. Almost everyone else has started work on R (except me). There was no update last month as ASB for last month was pushed by Google a month before already in September. Novemeber ASB got merged last week, and so I have started work on sepolicy as that's one of the biggest shipping blocker right now. Once that's done, I hope I can make atleasr Indian model official (as NFC is still broken).

Happy to read you.
Exited to see our phone on official build.
I hope you could also make NFC works, for other models.
Thanks for your works.

FYI, I'm currently running POSP on a European RN8P and NFC works perfectly fine.
Naively I'd assume LOS and POSP share the same device tree?

Cheers!

I'm looking to install this Rom later today but I'm wondering if there's any specific bug beside the sepolicy thing. Is the Rom smooth and stable? Can I root and flash a GCam without issues? Is everything working?

Thanks in advance. This is my first time flashing a custom Rom on this device and I'd like to make sure I'm doing the right thing.

Hey! The rom feels smooth and stable. SEPolicy disabled. Root possible with magisk. Buggy night light as in all custom Roms. GCam works OK(I use microg instead of gapps). Rom update 22/09.

But my question is... Is this rom discontinued? Is there any update coming? Either los 17.1 or 18. This is not an eta question. Just wondering if I should wait or try some other rom. Personally, I prefer Los, though. @theimpulson ?

EDIT:

Have you realy read the answer 5 post above ?
I'm sorry, I missed it. Thanks!

I have disconnects from the WLAN and it does not reconnect. I have to disable wlan and enable it again to get functionality back. Anyone with similar problems?

Hello everybody.

My firt post here, first of all, i would like to say thanks you very much to you for your work, the rom works just fine.

I would like to compile the rom source like you do but i can't manage to success.

I have done theses steps:
- repo init -u git://github.com/ForkLineageOS/android.git -b lineage-17.1
- repo sync -c -j$(nproc --all) --force-sync --no-clone-bundle --no-tags
- source build/envsetup.sh
- breakfast begonia

Now i have a roomservice.xml file that containts:
XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
  <project path="hardware/mediatek" remote="github" name="LineageOS/android_hardware_mediatek" />
  <project path="device/mediatek/sepolicy" remote="github" name="LineageOS/android_device_mediatek_sepolicy" />
  <project path="kernel/xiaomi/mt6785" remote="github" name="LineageOS/android_kernel_xiaomi_mt6785" />
  <project path="device/xiaomi/begonia" remote="github" name="LineageOS/android_device_xiaomi_begonia" />
  <project path="device/xiaomi/mt6785-common" remote="github" name="LineageOS/android_device_xiaomi_mt6785-common" />
</manifest>
I try to change the file by:
XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
  <project path="device/redmi/begonia" remote="github" name="HyperTeam/android_device_redmi_begonia" />
  <project path="kernel/redmi/mt6785" remote="github" name="HyperTeam/android_kernel_redmi_mt6785" />
  <project path="vendor/redmi" remote="github" name="HyperTeam/proprietary_vendor_redmi" />
</manifest>
With no results, the rom is copiled but the phone keeps on boot loop.

Official sources are currently WIP to start official builds. Better wait for me to announce it then try.
