Hello guys, i just inherited a Redmi Note 8 Pro. I’ve been using LineageOS for a lot of time, and I really like the way I managed to set up everything.

I’ve been searching and because of the processor (MediaTek) it is hard to install Roms, but I really hate MIUI and Google ecosystem, and I don’t want to go back to it.

It is really important for me that the rom doesn’t have google services.

Any recomandation? I’ve seen roms like:

  • CrAndroid
  • Unofficial LineageOS
  • HavocOS

Thanks for everything!!

    *as long as you have a good CPU, a minimum of 32GBs of RAM, about 200GB disk space, fast internet access, and 12 hours of time per clean build (or try incremental builds that will constantly break).

    Having maintained my own branch of LineageOS for a while, I would not take compiling Android as lightly.

      True but here we’re just playing around

      A service that comes close to giving 100gb is enough for our needs… ish

      On older branches maybe or for compiling twrp, halium and the like.
