[ROM][DISCONTINUED] LineageOS 17.1 for Xiaomi Mi MIX

[bgcngm]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10 (Q), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

LineageOS is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. You will need to provide your own Google Applications package (gapps). LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

Base source code is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to the project, please visit our Gerrit Code Review.

GPL compliance:

​

• Device tree source code: LineageOS/android_device_xiaomi_lithium
• Kernel source code: LineageOS/android_kernel_xiaomi_msm8996

Broken / not yet supported:

• VoLTE (?)

Working:

• Camera (and flashlight)
• WiFi
• NFC
• Bluetooth
• Telephony (Calls and Data)
• Audio (Record and Playback)
• Video Playback
• Sensors
• GPS
• Encryption (FDE)

Compatibility:

Compatible with all Xiaomi Mi MIX variants (64GB / 128GB / 256GB).​

Builds are based off the Xiaomi's Android 8.0 firmware with proprietary blobs from MIUI 8.5.10 dev package.​

Downloads:

• Official download links

Notice:

• No custom kernels are supported in this thread. Only stock kernel and official builds will be supported. No bug reports if that's not the case.

Installation:

• Reboot to recovery (TWRP recovery for Mi MIX - Direct link)
• Format /system, /data and /cache
• Install LineageOS zip package
• Install [optional] a Google Apps package of your choice (Open GApps is advisable, but stock and super variants are not recommended!!!)

Important notes:​

• Current minimal * required * firmware version is MIUI 8.5.10 Global dev, otherwise installation will fail.
• GApps can only be flashed on clean installs.
• Formatting data (all user data is wiped, including internal storage) is a must if MIUI was previously installed and device was encrypted.

Credits & collaborations:

This work is due to efforts from Mi5Devs founding members (@h2o64 and me) that did the full device bring-up. Huge thanks to @deovferreira for all the help during the kernel bring-up after source code dropped. Last but not least, pleasure having @luca020400 and @LuK1337 onboard since the bring-up of the whole Xiaomi 8996 family.​

​

Finally, all LineageOS team would like to thank everyone involved in helping with testing, coding, debugging & documenting! Enjoy!​

I haven't installed your Lineage myself, but on the ROMs I build I had to pick the ultrasound hal from the lineage gerrit to get it working. I think you need to get it merged

I had no problem with sensor. I returned on los16, as in los17 there is no access ban to the Internet for programs. will this be done in the future, as in los16?

Why screen is locking during phone talk? When I trying to end talk - I can't press red button because screen is locked. Screen is on but I need to enter code or Finger ID.

 

[JoshReuben]

Same problem in Lineage 16. No issue if connected to Bluetooth.
