[ROM] [OFFICIAL] [7.1.2] LineageOS for microG (14.1)

LineageOS for microG (14.1) for Xiaomi Mi 5s (capricorn)
aka LineageOS bundled with microG
Official ROM built by LineageOS for microG team (Simon94). Updates multiple times a week.
Simon94 said:
Android experience relies heavily on Google's Play Services. The microG project creates an alternative to installing Gapps, which install and execute closed-source blobs on our phones. MicroG however requires a patch called "signature spoofing", which allows microG's apps to spoof themselves as Google Apps. LineageOS currently does not include the patch due to different opinions among the developers. (further information can be found here)
This makes microG installation difficult on LineageOS and other ROMs. Our ROM is a fork of LineageOS with just the necessary changes to have microG built-in. We ship daily builds for 46 devices and we can add more as needed.

Great to see this with LOS.
I have been trying out MicroG on a few SIGPOOF compatible ROMs.
My only problem was when I tried microG that BKK Futar didn't worked with it, but otherwise it's great.

For me, in this ROM the BKK futár is working great. I used it for ~5 minute, it crashed once, but I think it's usable.
(Downloaded the latest apk with Yalpstore).

No. So it isnt working too great. xd I think it's an issue in the Maps API.

will there be a LOS15 version in the foreseeable future?

I got this from LineageOSMicroG Official Thread...
"All the requested devices will be built from tomorrow on. Furthermore this thread is obsolete, since we migrated to a new project.

Will you still continue to build after official support?

Oh, it was fast.
If they'll build for capricorn too, I'll stop building this rom. It is unnecessary to have two identical roms to the device.

what's the difference between from official los +gapps

Bunch of alternative open source libraries to replace proprietary Google ones so apps that require them work, without the need to install Gapps.
At this point, several popular open-source applications already require some of Google’s proprietary libraries to be installed. Increasing demand in the free software community in addition to severe problems in Google’s proprietary software discovered by the Android modding community, have led to the development of a free software clone of Google’s proprietary core libraries and applications - the microG Project was born.

Restart-Loop with WiFi connected
Hi, my MI5S keeps restarting, as soon as it get's connected to WiFi. First I thought it was a problem of your build, as I just bought the phone and my first custom rom was lineageos for microG But it turned out, also the pure lineageOS builds have this problem, and also other users reported it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74413252&postcount=2367
I successfully was able to flash an older version, which is working perfectly: lineage-14.1-20171023-nightly-capricorn-signed.zip
Sadly, lineage os for microG doesn't is old enough to have this version.
Is there any chance you could build this older version and publish it? I can't wait, till this issue is fixed, and would love to go with the microG version instead the classic one...

My build? I dont built this ROM since 11-05, you should try the latest official build. (Currently the 11-16) Maybe that fixed your issue.
I only built 1 unofficial build, the builds on the lineage.microg.org are official builds, built by the LOS4mG build bot

Well, no. I don't know how to revert all of the repos to an older state by date.
Btw, if you dont have the latest firmware you should try to install it, and try again, maybe it'll fix your issue, but idk.
And you should report the issue (again) in the xda thread and/or the LOS JIRA.

questions
Hi, I'm waiting for my 72 hours unlock hold for Mi 5s.
My last phone was LG G3 w\ LOS for microG, why the release for d855 is about 300mb and capriconr is about 500mb?

Roms for Xiaomi RN9?

I've seen there are many custom roms for RN9s and RN9 Pro. Why does our RN9 doesn't have? Will there be roms for us someday? Just bought the phone and thought there were roms I can install

I think its up to xiaomi, because ROM's devolopers usually waits for the official kernel source to be uploaded by the manufacturer. This reason might explain why there are plenty of Redmi Note 9 Pro/S ROMs (already with kernel source uploaded) but not even a fully functional TWRP recovery for Redmi Note 9. We might need to wait for xiaomi official kernel source for RN9 to start seeing functional stable ROMS running out.

Here, at official Xiaomi Github channel:

Maybe we should wait, RN9 still a new device. And there just an Unofficial TWRP, maybe after the official TWRP got released we will got some custom ROM.

I suggest you to keep on stock rom firmware only.
Root it with magisk. Flash it with twrp.
And everything is fine.

Question is Pixel Experience coming any time soon?

When do you guys think Pixel Experience is coming for Mi11 , or do you guys have any other stock android roms for Mi11 that are stable for daily driving to recommend? Just can wait to get rid of Miui

Unfortunately there any AOSP developement for the moment on Mi 11 (Venus).
There no updates (security/fixes) and no developement in progress (rom or a12)
You will be patient, or better buy a Pixel 6/Pro ^^
If you want, actually the best AOSP rom stay SSOS (ShapeShift OS), merge Pixel Experience and Extra stuff.
Unfortunately rom is not updated, lastest build is from 26 september.

Any update? And, my real question, since you're trying to build the A12 version, could you give us the github/gitlab of :
Device_xiaomi
Kernel_xiaomi
Vendor_xiaomi
(version of Android 12 of course)
P.S : You should really go on the Mi 11 - AOSP Development (telegram group)

I have the device tree for A12 and I think using A11 version of Vendor_xiaomi is fine.
But I'm not sure if I can use the kernel for A11

Question Why we don't have ROMs for mi11 ultra?

Are Xiaomi recent phones bad at custom roms? Why?

You do have quite a lot. Most custom ROMs for Mi 11 Pro are compatible with 11 Ultra. PixelExperience (both unofficial and official), official crDroid, official Project Elixir, official EvolutionX, unofficial CherishOS, unofficial DerpfestAOSP, unofficial riceDroid, and probably more.
Edit: Even though, you're unlikely to get support for Mi 11 Ultra for official PixelExperience, since the developer never mentioned that it's compatible with 11 Ultra.

And I think the dev from official pe allready dropped support . When you visit site there is no maintainer anymore with mars

Because they're not allowed to support android 12 anymore. According to PE's blog, December 2022 is the last month for Android 12 support.
Therefore, there's a big chance that the dev will bring 13 to Mars

Question Best security rom for Redmi Note 10 Pro

I want to find security rom without gapps. I tried to find lineage os without gapps but i no sucsess maybe someone knows where I can find lineage os without gapps. (P.S. Lineage os 18.1 on xda doesnt want to install)

Hi @Sehaxe
LineageOS for the Redmi Note 10 Pro is being developed by @Pulkit Agarwal .
But unfortuntatley he did not make it official until yet.
His unofficial builds include GApps and some other proprietary apps.
You could remove those from his builds to get a "clean" LineageOS - but without knowing the developer in person you can't know if the ROM was compromised, as it is not maintained officially by the LineageOS community.
Alternatively you can review the device sources provided by @Pulkit Agarwal on Github and compile the ROM by your own:
Pulkit077 - Repositories
learning something new everyday ((:. Pulkit077 has 44 repositories available. Follow their code on GitHub.
github.com
For anyone who is not able to compile by his own and would like to get LineageOS without GApps I recommend to use /e/ OS:
Unofficial /e/ OS - Android S/12 - Xiaomi redmi note 10 pro **sweet**
Another S/Android 12 build for the Xiaomi Redmi Note 10pro - sweet A big thanks to pulkit077, whose sources have premitted me to assemble this rom. - Please make sure you use the latest twrp version, 3.7.0-a12.0 to flash the ROM. - It is recommended to clean flash, for this device with...
community.e.foundation
Its actual state regarding security:
- Negative: It is also not official yet
- Positive: It is based on LineageOS 19 sources
- To be evaluated: It is based on the device sources from @Pulkit Agarwal
- Positive: It already includes microG (secure open source alternative to GApps)
Based on the facts stated above (I didn't review it yet) I would say that it is the most secure ROM for the Redmi Note 10 Pro as of now.
The /e/ OS builds for the Redmi Note 10 Pro are accessible by this link:
Sweet
Murena - Choose freedom
murena.io
Nevertheless I still hope that @Pulkit Agarwal takes his precious work one small step further and establishes that the Redmi Note 10 Pro gets official LineageOS.
Or, in case he is not interested, that another developer does it.

If you look up on rn10p telegram group you'll find the others, there are libre, lineage, calyx, all of them are unofficial. But yeah, unfortunately, all of them didn't open a thread in xda, maybe they don't want to give support in here or whatever their reasons are.
If in doubt, just ask them for the source in their TG support group and see if you could build it yourself.

Due to your precious contribution I have finally found an OFFICIAL ROM that comes with microG included.
It is Omni ROM.
OFFICIAL Omni ROM with microG can be downloaded here:
OmniROM - sweet
And it is very lean, fast and based on Android 13.
Omni ROM is from the developer @AliHasan7671 (alihasan7671) who has also made the official Carbon ROM.

@AliHasan7671 there are many people who would highly appreciate if LineageOS would become official for the Redmi Note 10 Pro.

In that regard: u should trust no one. Get a Nokia 3310, be happy, no?
Okay lets be serious. U always have the option to compile a own ROM. Aint hard if u bring some patience to read, read, and yes, read even more to get into it to be autonomous.
Other than that, Volla Phone is a option. https://volla.online/en/index.html
Gigaset AG is not just selling hot thin air like many other, who keep begging for donations afterwards, threaten with support drops,.. If u take it serious about ur data, its something to consider.

Fyi, even sms isn't safe nowadays, therefore the rcs being pushed by Google to replace it. And more and more telcom vendors retire the 2g/3g bands, like it or don't, moving to 4g smartphone is inevitable.
