Hi,
Some time ago I have read an article about the /e/ foundation and its goal to offer to everybody the chance to have a free mobile OS. I think that it's a really good idea but unfortunately the os is not yet available on the Xiaomi Mi5.
So I give you a link to get more information and to make a request for our device!
Sorry for my poor english
Flash lineageOS with microG its same stuff
I know this response is late by a few years, but Please post device requests only in the /e/OS Forums.
Hi @Kabula2000,
the Mi 5 - "gemini" is now officially supported by /e/OS,
actually A11/R based

The version of Lineage tested in that study had gApps installed, so it is unsurprising it was leaking data to Google. LineageOS without gApps was not tested, but there is nor reason to think that it, or LIneageOS for MicroG would leak any more information than /e/OS. in fact, the original paper on which that article was based (which can be found at https://www.scss.tcd.ie/Doug.Leith/Android_privacy_report.pdf) states (my emphasis)
> On all of the other handsets the Google Play Services and Google
> Play store system apps send a considerable volume of data to Google,
> the content of which is unclear, not publicly documented and Google
> confirm there is no opt out from this data collection. LineageOS
> collects no data beyond this data collected by Google and so is
> perhaps the next most private choice after /e/OS.

Yes, and without gApps installed, vanilla LineageOS and Lineage OS for MicroG - will collect the same amount of data as /e/OS.
So, in terms of data sent to Google, the earlier comment

is essentially correct
reading the old white paper published by the /e/ team some years ago, they says they remove code still in lineage that makes calls to gogol.
the LeOS G.S.I. maintainer say the same, so e/OS is in fact
( LineageOS sources -- google ) + microG + nextcloud

Intro
This is a bit different than most postings here, as I'm not providing any binaries to install on your phone and instead providing a simple tool, rattlesnakeos-stack, to build your own OS based on AOSP on a regular basis, with your own signing keys, and your own OTA updates. This probably will be interesting to a small subset of users as it does cost money to run this infrastructure in AWS.
What is RattlesnakeOS
RattlesnakeOS is privacy focused Android OS based on AOSP for Google Pixel phones. It is my migration strategy away from CopperheadOS (hence the name similarity) which is no longer maintained.
Features:
Based on latest AOSP 9.0 (Android P)
Support for Google Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL
Monthly software and firmware security fixes delivered through built in OTA updater
Maintain verified boot with a locked bootloader just like official Android but with your own personal signing keys
Latest Chromium browser and webview
Latest F-Droid client and privileged extension
Free of Google’s apps and services
What is rattlesnakeos-stack
Rather than providing random binaries of RattlesnakeOS to install on your phone, I've gone the route of creating a cross platform tool, rattlesnakeos-stack, that provisions all of the AWS infrastructure needed to continuously build your own personal RattlesnakeOS, with your own signing keys, and your own OTA updates. It uses AWS Lambda to provision EC2 spot instances that build RattlesnakeOS and upload artifacts to S3. Resulting OS builds are configured to receive over the air updates from this environment. It only costs a few dollars a month to run (see FAQ for detailed cost breakdown).

How do I set this up?
Head over to the github repo and take a look at the README for full setup, build, and flashing instructions.
Project Fi
Cool stuff, I'm definitely going to try it now! Your repo says that Project Fi will most likely not work, but it runs on the T-Mobile towers. Is there an additional feature that Fi needs? I don't use the e-sim, just a normal nano.

It potentially can work w/ Project Fi if you target just a single supported carrier by manually setting APN settings. I haven't ever tried it as I don't have Project Fi, but here's a post from CopperheadOS subreddit where a user was able to get it working with T-Mobile.
I'm running my first build now! Can't wait to see how this turns out. I just had to build with the custom hosts file. No need for Ad Blockers now!!
Update. The first build finished without a single issue and flashed just fine! Thanks for bringing this to the Pixel line!
How might one create userdebug builds using this stack?
Anyone messing with this?

CarbonROM is an aftermarket firmware based on the Android Open Source Project. We are dedicated to fast, stable, and feature-filled ROMs, honesty and communication with our users, and openness with our code. We like frequent builds, with the very latest and greatest hardware support and fixes. We strive to not only provide you with the best ROM we can build, but also to give back to the Android community and our fellow developers. For us, this is about creating something we can be proud of and hope you will enjoy.
What's not working:
⚛ As of basic testing most of things are working fine...if you find any bug then tell me
Disclaimer:
While we make every effort to test these builds as much as possible, we are not responsible for anything that may happen to your device, family, pets, or perception of reality. We ask that you do your part to know your device and know how to recover from problems before you flash! These builds are experimental and can contain Bugs (as listed above). Make sure to do backups.
Instructions:
⚛ Take a backup of your setup in case you want to return to it.
⚛ Using twrp wipe data,cache,system,vendor....
⚛ Install the ROM.
⚛ Install Gapps and magisk (root) if needed.
⚛ Reboot to system.
Support:
We spend an astonishing amount of time developing this software. We can't spend much time on XDA as a result, so if you need support, please try the following:
1) Search. Search, search, search. Yes, you. I don't care how unique or important your question is, it's very likely someone has addressed it already. Especially if you're even close to new at this.
2) Read our FAQ, which can be found on our website. Carbon FAQ
3) Ask a question in your device forum. Someone will no doubt try to help you. Warning: this help may come in the form of telling you it's a dumb question that has been asked before. See step 1 - such are the perils of asking questions when you haven't done the research yourself. Android is about helping yourself.
4) Join our Discord server! There, you can connect with other Carbon users and our developers, and you can get quicker responses to your bug reports. The invite link is right below.

In recovery before rebooting, make sure to factory reset/wipe data on first install. No wipes are needed between updates from Descendant itself, unless specified.
Reboot into the system and you should be good.
But please, mind, we won't support any issue arising from Magisk nor relative modules.

Look for "How to report bugs" on this post.

Nope... And this ROM is a real battery eater, but there is easy solution to this - this ROM + MVK kernel = battery consumption (nearly) same as Lineage OS And there are no problems with camera here (MVK kernel would cause camera crash in most ROMs found here).
@johngalt1 will you update this ROM?
