[ROM][UNOFFICIAL][R] LineageOS 18.1 for POCO F2 Pro/Redmi K30 Pro [lmi/lmipro]

[SebaUbuntu]

LineageOS is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 11.0 (R), 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.

Instructions (Follow them carefully)
If you aren't on my previous LineageOS build:
- Install LOS recovery

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot reboot recovery

- Format data/cache with recovery
- Flash the ROM via ADB sideload (On recovery, Update > Update with ADB)

adb sideload <ROM filename>

- Flash Gapps/Magisk with ADB sideload (same procedure as before)
- Reboot

If you are on a LineageOS 18.1 build:
- Update regularly with adb sideload

Off-topic, but related to the topic:

Has Xiaomi already released the COMPLETE version of the kernel source code for Poco F2 Pro?
If not, does anyone have any idea about why?

With Android 10 kernel sources Xiaomi did a mess
We're hoping for a not-so-broken kernel sources release for Android 11

I was wondering...

Whenever Xiaomi releases a new MIUI Stock Rom. Xiaomi's programmers compile the Rom and the Kernel using the Device's Kernel source code.

So, why doesn't Xiaomi release the Kernel's source code that they use to compile their own Poco F2 Pro Stock ROM? Simples as that. No mess, no problem, and no delays. I'm totally sure that the Poco F2 Pro Kernel source code they use for compiling the Stock MIUI Rom is a fully workable one and not a messy one.

Do you agree with this point of view?

If they do it like that XDA developers will get to see all the dirty hacks they code into the kernel to spy on us.

Note: Build repushed with brightness fix, you can dirty flash it over previous 18.1 build

They use different kernel sources, with full git history
When they release a kernel to the public, what they do is simply cloning CAF kernel, deleting everything and copying current kernel over it, then pushing it
So it may happen that some files aren't "uploaded" correctly with this method

Hi, thank you very much for all your hard work.

Without testing it, I suppose that because of permissive selinux the NFC payment is not working yet, right?

No, it works but you need to enable magisk hide and spoof the fingerprint with Magiskhide props config module.

 

[shadowyblack]

I think "V12.2.1.0.RJKMIXM" build isn't stable. I wait for stable version.

 

[Enddo]

is the fingerprint scanner bug from the other LOS build, in this one as well?

 

[trivi88]

No, it works but you need to enable magisk hide and spoof the fingerprint with Magiskhide props config module.

Thanks for the answer.

I have been some time away from the ROMs world. Is magiskhide already a long term solution or is it possible to need regular updates whenever Google updates safetynet?

Latest version of Magisk has support for Android11, so far there weren't much changes on the google's side so the development is rather slow.

Hello, can i upgrade from your los 17.1 build without wipe date?

 

[trivi88]

It doesn't work for me then, I normally don't wear my wallet with me and I use my phone for payments and as legal ID. I don't want to notice it is not working anymore when I'm trying to pay at the market.

I'll wait patiently until selinux is fixed.

Hi all,

just to say i try this rom as a daily driver. I haven't tried gpay with nfc yet , but i will soon.
Deep sleep and battery seems good. Urnyx gcam works ok.

I am a long time LOS user and like the vanilla AOSP feeling.
I am ready to follow the updates by sideloading when they will come.
