Project Treble and GSI Roms - Redmi Note 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi,
has anybody tried to install a GSI image on this device? Its my first device with treble support and iam very unhappy with MIUI and hope that there is a way to install a stock image on this device. Will a GSI need a special adjustment or something like this because of the MTK processor?

Stock Android 10, I want to flash HavocOS 3.6 GSI with Android 10

Hello there, I have a fully-compatible treble Motorola One Action (not rooted, no twrp, bootloader was not unlocked[yet])
I was wondering, can I flash a GSI ROM with Android 10, having already Android 10?
Looked on Android Devs site, no answer for this question.
I have to mention that my device has AB partitions.
Please help me!

Yes. Project Treble is independent from the android version as long as your device comes with minimum Android 8 out of the box (cause with Android 8 Project Treble was introduced).
Of course your current Stock will be replaced. And you need a unlocked bootloader to boot a GSI (which probably will lead to a wipe of your data so backup it first).

Adding to the post by the other user, it's VERY recommended to:
Install Twrp (whatever is latest)
Use Twrp to flash "permissiver v4 or v5" (Google it )

To anyone trying to port a new rom

This device supports Project Treble which allows you install any GSI compatible with the device. I Advise any who want a new rom to flash the lineage os recovery, head over to the Project Treble forum find a GSi you like and install it using the fast boot method.

GSI on MI10T ?

Hello,
Has anyone tried installing a GSI rom on MI10T?
I'm interested in getting feedback and if it works for you.
Thanks
Tried and failed. Don't know what I did wrong and I'm pretty new to this stuff so don't have that much experience. I'm sure it's possible.
TWRP for this phone doesn't support installing GSI, I bricked my phone because of it
If you tried ab that's probably why you failed - ab has different partition layout than aonly which is this device... Somebody should try aonly gsi and check...
Can you install system gsi? Because there is only a super partition in TWRP.

When new TWRP 3.5.0 gets fixed it will work good because it supports dynamic partitions properly

You seem quite knowledgeable. Is there a chance you will make a gsi flashing guide later on ? Maybe trying out some ROMs like pixel experience or havoc

Redmi Note 8 Custom Firmware Beginner Question

Hey dear xda-dev people,
i have bought a used redmi note 8 pro. And because i want a safe and secure smartphone i would appreciate it that the OS has no google software on it. I read that theres only an unofficial lineage os which is currently not updated anymore. What else custom firmwares are safe, do regulary get updated and doesn't have any google tools? I thought about crDroid.
How do I install custom firmwares and stuff? I'm not a complete beginner - i know adb fastboot etc. but I read that there should be a special situation with the Redmi note 8 pro. I just enabled the dev mode. My device has 128 gb and is actually running on global MIUI-Version 12.0.2. Stabil. The android version is 10QP1A.190711.020.
Can you please help me and spread your knowledge?
Greets,

Seems you didn't even search for it...
Here is a full guide. Flash TWRP > Do a full backup > Install any ROM you want, you can find some of the ROMs here.
I searched for it but i was pretty unsure because i read that a brick can happen very easily with this phone. thanks a lot for your answer!
The phone is now succesfully unlocked. Is the
"5. LR Team TWRP" really the correct twrp for my actual android (10QP1A.190711.020) and miui version (Version 12.0.2). Stabil.
Then I will try to flash it and report. Should I Install something like an antibricktool first?
@newbie922 Do you want to install CFW or nom-CFW custom ROM?
I want to install a cfw without google apps. Also a non cfw with no google apps would be great!
Do you have something which you can recommend? Regulary updates would be cool.

Mabye Havoc OS?
That sounds good. I already read about this both firmwares. But question now is if it's safe to install the LR Team TWRP with my actual android and MIUI-Version. After i succesfully installed twrp I can install the resurrection remix or the havoc os?
Data Encryption is still possible with both of the firmwares?

For Resurrection Remix - follow method #1 from Megathread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-info-psa-redmi-note-8-pro-megathread-cfw.4056527/
For non-CFW ROM - first of all - install TWRP 3.5.1 Unified.
So you mean this twrp for example? https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-black-twrp-3-5-1-v2-unified-begonia.4241633/
Concerning the megathread it's not possible to just install a cfw afterwards by flashing it? I have to downgrade to A9 etc. etc.

It turns out that to develop a custom rom requires the source code of the device, which at the moment is unfortunately not available.

Not only that, but a developer is also (obviously) necessary.
