After days of deciding..
Yes!! i have risked my device warranty for the sake of fun and excitement. HAHA LOL
For those who asked if we can flash Treble GSI (Generic System Image) on our device. The answer is Yes, FOR ME AT LEAST!
No complicated steps or whatsoever.
I just followed the steps from this link and downloaded the GSI of my choice. CREDITS TO ALL THE DEVELOPERS WHO WORKED FOR THIS PROJECT.
https://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/
TRY THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK! I will not be held accountable to whatever happens to your device. This post is just to prove that indeed our device is treble enabled.
Some important things to note:
- You have backup of your data
- You have a working ADB
- There might be functionalities that is not working at the moment (Read the changelogs of your GSI choice before downloading)
- The notch looks bad on these builds (Android P might be able to fix this when it arrives)
- Your device should be in stock ROM (no heavy modifications such as xposed , magisk etc..) ROOT Not needed
- You should put your device on factory reset before trying this.
I have attached some screenshots of my test.

The only bug i have notice so far in PixelExperience is sometimes mobile data does not turned on when you toggle it in the quick tiles. you have to restart your phone then it will work after that.

I'm not sure bro. One thing i tried is changing the display size in settings. It looks better but everything looks so big. so i reverted to the default one.

What ROM are you using right now? i think you can extract it from the image of that ROM. sorry if this not as helpful.
he is on Stock Rom and he would like one guy put the stock recovery.img here
Excellent job. Thank you. I understand the camera is basic, but how is image quality? Looking forward to Google Camera port tests. And perhaps the ZE620KL fully ported so can make use of the landscape camera. Not a huge deal, but would be nice, no?
As visible on screenshot, Asus Camera is properly visible in the launcher (because of being put to vendor by Asus), but does it run well?
Based on Motorola releasing Official oreo somewhen in 5634 a.c. .... I can tell 4sho i dont care anymore. . got these custom settings by myself and system is running in almost perfection....

How is the audio clarity and quality when compared to the stock ROM? I have stopped flashing any custom ROMs - be it Oreo or Pie just because of this issue. Also, could you please share the full camera version that you are currently using - is that without the Portrait mode? Also, how much screen-on time are you getting?
Hello there... this post got my interest too. I have jumped back and forth between stock and custom. It is sad "for me" that it seems most devs have given up on supporting / maintaining Oreo 8.1. Everyone is trying to iron out the bugs in a Pie custom... however, I simply want the stability to be there... especially with the camera features and battery life. I am not a gamer either, btw. With all of that said, I have a question or two please.
1. Why did you quote using an older version of Magisk? Is there a compatibility thing that I should be aware of?
2. With the Gcam mod you referenced, does stability work smoothly while recording video? I have found that in many custom builds the stability mode can be jerky and no too smooth.
TIA
PLEASE NO 'What's SOT' or 'Whats antutu score' in this thread!!!
For those that wish to test lineage 15.1 on their unlocked Mi8 here is a working verison.
This thread will probably mutate into a thread for Dirty Unicorns or something else depends what I decide on.
For now here is a working version of Lineage 15.1
Please make sure you are running the latest firmware before flashing this: 9.6.7
Otherwise you may get some services crashing as Xiaomi added some to the vendor image in the latest updates.
Bugs? I'm unsure of all so far.
USB file transfers: The only issue is the driver shows up funny. You need to go in device manager for now and select it to use a 'portable device, then mtp usb device' and everything works.
This is fixable just not a high priority as it does work...
Bluetooth audio - working now thanks to bgcngm
Camera - working. GCAM also working (the generic 845 one from OP6 gcam thread)
DT2W Fixed
GPS - FIXED!
Speaker - Fixed
Fixed wifi and RIL.
Added lots of stock blobs.
Wifi display etc etc etc.
Some notch support. (Added all that lineage 15.1 had available)

Does this work for chineese version, global version or both? thanks in advance. Also, passes safety net and allows google pay yes?
By the way, thanks so much for this rom! I was patiently waiting for the day to get stock android haha. MIUI is so bad compared to stock

answer : yes.
i did experimented with it, got everything to work except the gcam no 3rd party cams. rom is very snappy and responsive but haven't don any gaming on it.
I had to work on h2os so haven't work further on this and i have exams coming up, gonna be busy till december and also fixing gcam is not my cup of tea, so if any one want to work on this i will upload the files and details regarding this.

I have already looked on this, not only this but various other similar ports, including pie ones.
The major issue is camera, which seems near impossible to fix, so it won't make sense as we already have proper Oreo and nougat ports of this rom
and pie ports(both miui and oos/h2os) won't boot on our device without proper pie vendors, which our device don't have, the treble flag is disabled on treble pie roms, enabling it causes various crashes and makes rom boots but its unusable,waiting for senior devs to fix it or any workaround.

Thanks for seeing this post and replying. I think we can count on OOS Pie coming for the OP3 soon, it has the same chipset so it should be much easier to port
Hi,
I am planning on repairing friend's phone (screen), and while i'm on it I would also like to de-google it = unlock + flash a custom ROM + microG. I did so on lavender using LOS 17.1 and except slo-mo and some minor location issues i'm very happy with the result.
Now, the thing is that it's possible that this phone will be used by my mom (if my friend will be willing to sell - for him it's a "in the drawer" phone).
That's why my priorities are for the ROM to be stable, reliable and maintained/updated (OTA preferrably). It would also be great if it was based on AOSP 10.
I'm not looking for "fireworks" like extreme customisation, gaming options etc.
I am taking into consideration:
Havoc (main candidate)
crDroid
Bliss ROM (although 10 Q is considered a beta).
...and in andvance I'm sorry for being a bit lazy and not using "search it for myself" method, but I think that for some of you it's a quick answer, while i would be digging through xda for days
Thanks

Just tested all 3 of them a week ago.
My personal opinion:
Havoc +++
crDroid ++
Bliss +
If I'm correct, OTA currently only works on bliss tho, but bliss currently using an outdated kernel so I recommend to wait for an update.
crDroid dev might fixed the OTA with the last update.
Even tho there's no OTA built in havoc, I still prefer it over the others. But this could change in a week, who knows?
Apart from stability, is there something worth recommending in regards to battery life? Are there custom ROMs that provide at least the same battery life as stock?
for me the best custom rom until now is this version: Bliss-v12.10-daisy-OFFICIAL-20200801

Wifi: works fine for me.
Camera: front cam with stock app takes pics really slowly but I use gcam anyways, so that's not an issue for me (also not really using front cam, but at least it's working with gcam).

I am in this exact same situation: I am waiting for a screen to be shipped to repair a daisy phone, and I would like to degoogle it. Unfortunately, the least painful method (installing LineageOS for microG) is not an option because this device lacks official LOS support. So when you finally go for it, I would appreciate if you would comment the steps (which ROM with signature spoofing support you choose, how do you install/flash microG, how you install/flash F-Droid...).

I'll have to give it a try, thanks!
Hi,
I'm back - finally fixed the phone ...and now I'm "building" a degoogled device for my mom.
1) I saw that Bliss Q-based is not a beta anymore - that's good ..and it has OTA. I'm taking it into consideration.
2) On the other hand I would prefer crDroid (IF ...IF IT HAS OTA - can anyone confirm?)
3) No about Havoc which was my #1 until now - if it has no OTA (again, confirm? thanks ) it a big dis for me. BTW: Is manual update a pain-in-the-A? If it's as easy as downoad and flash via TWRP that's OK, but anything more on a longer term might be ...bleh ;P
@doragasu: If I install and degoogle my daisy I will tell you all about it. On lavender I had to follow a video on YT (microG + LineageOS), EXCEPT new microG framework is BUGGY (e.g. crashes when you try to go in "Location modules") so you have to install older version follow instructions, and when (as far as I remember) you install at least ONE location module, you can update framework.
Now, microG is NOT perfect - e.g on Telegram push notifications sometimes were missed (on Telegram X works fine), and location EITHER works 100% (GPS, WIFI, GSM) or 0% (still working on low-accuracy), although I rarely use location so it might take a while.
EDIT:
Ok, guys I think I'm gonna need some help :/ I tried to install Havoc 3.9 and I followed YT guide from here ( v=GylCEL_Xf_M ) but when I got to the flashing of the rom all i got was ERROR 1.
Help! ...i might figure it out myself, but maybe you know what's the deal. If I try to flash Magisk, all OK, but ROM, just
"Updater process ended with ERROR: 1".
...and it's exactly the same when I try to flash crDroid 6.10.
I'm clueless :/
Thanks
