[ROM][OFFICIAL][ginkgo][10] LineageOS 17.1 for Redmi Note 8 / 8T

[DarkJoker360]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 10, 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. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. LineageOS does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for LineageOS is available in the LineageOS Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to LineageOS, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

Reporting Bugs

• DO NOT Report bugs if you're running a custom kernel or you installed Xposed
• Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
• If it is a random reboot, grab /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops and /sys/fs/pstore/dmesg-ramoops-0. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
• If the problem disappears after running "setenforce 0" from a root shell, grab /data/misc/audit/audit.log

Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. Please also do not report known issues. Any bug not reported in the bug report format below may be ignored.

FAQ.
Q. The rom can't pass cts, why?
A. We don't use hacks to bypass safetynet attestation, we just use our fingerprint, so cts won't pass by default. You should install magisk and use magisk hide props module with pixel 4 fingerprint.

Thanks for the awesome rom - it has transformed my device (8T)

I'm having a problem (since installing) whereby the phone is stuck on "slow charging" no matter which cable/charger I use. I've tried cleaning out the port, but it really wasn't the issue.

Is there some different firmware I can try installing?

NB: The device isn't hot (or even warm)

Also, could be my imagination but it seems to charge properly if I turn it completely off...

No problem with charging here, slow and fast is working.

- airplane mode: reboot the device after a few seconds

[M.Tullius]

Thank you, finally a ROM from serious people. Will check it out.

 

[zurik]

Sorry for asking it, this ROM uses CAF NFC Stack? And returning back to MIUI will have broken NFC like other ROMs?

Would be fine if you write a faq with most common questions (like the ones you answered), just a suggestion.

Wow, this ROM doesn't have a call log bug when using VoLTE.
(Other AOSP based ROMs had an issue for me, caller's number always showing with my number when incoming call)

Thank you so much to the dev.

If you want safety net to pass. Download Magisk Hide Props from Magisk Manager and set the props from 8T European (MIUI10 fingerprint)

Thank you for your work OP, being a LOS official mantainer is a hard and often unrewarded job. I hope you can find solution for those non-fatal bugs with the camera and mic whenever you and erfanoabdi have spare time.

Any recommended gapps package variant?? I've heard the full package causes problems with LOS

 

[zurik]

Can you add support for Sony IMX582 sensor on some 8T units? Or it's already included?
