[DISCUSSION]Project Treble - Xiaomi Mi 5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hi, this thread will be about project treble's connection with Mi5
I'm starting with a question about MI5 receiving Project Treble, is it likely?
You are free to post everything known and unknown about the topic.

It is unlikely unless Xiaomi releases Oreo upgrade with Project treble support. Since devices that upgrade to Android 8.0 Oreo are not required to support and it is unlikely for any devices to unofficially receive Project Treble support via custom ROM development.

[Question] LineageOS for Redmi 5 Plus (vince)

Will there be a LineageOS for the Redmi 5 Plus soon? (Codename: Vince)
It got a snapdragon 625 so it shouldnt be that hard, isnt it? Or is something important missing so there will no custom roms soon?
If someone CAN build LineageOS for this device, but hasn't got enough resources for this, please contact me via PM. I'll able to set up a Server
(Just for Lineageos )
Good question - should be fairly straightforward in theory, but changes in displays, touch panels, cameras and fingerprint sensors will always present a unique set of challenges for an experienced dev considering there is no kernel source code yet. Redmi Note 4 development efforts will definitely help no doubt as certain blobs should be ported over without issue, but a bit of classic reverse engineering and testing will be needed to begin with. Building 7.1.2 shouldn't be too hard, but 8.0 will be a little trickier until codebases stabilise. Really hoping that MIUI 10 introduces treble support!
Will definitely be keen to test ROMs as they become available for the Redmi 5 plus though, seems like a decent successor to the Redmi Note 4 even if the lack of an SOC upgrade makes it a little boring as an upgrade - but they won't be selling the Redmi Note 4 forever.

Yea sure, no kernel source is a problem, and as it seems Xiaomi wont release any kernel sources soon anymore .. take a look at the Mi A1.
For my knowledge, treble will be ONLY available if the devices COMES with Android 8(.1)

did it come at least with 8.0?
Do we have information if the Lineage team is working on an official version? This seems like it will be a quite high volume phone.

I am planning to buy the redmi 5 plus ( aka Redmi note 5 in India), but i can't withstand miui. I hope there are developments regarding the custom roms for this device very soon. Currently on redmi 4x (Crdroid custom rom).

[Q] Will Xiaomi ever going to release Redmi 5 Plus Oreo Kernel Source soon?

Hello dear devs, i believe you have more experience than me about this stuff. Since i heard kernel source code i mean updated one requires for Pie based ROM's, do you think Xiaomi will ever release updated kernel sources soon? Please let us know since a lot of people wants to taste Pie ROMs..
We don't need oreo source for pie roms actually, but it would be a newer source, maybe better drivers n'stuff? it could be different for other devs, but for me it's just an update

Is there any Pie ROM treble enabled ? GSI ready

Is there any Pie ROM which we can keep its vendor and experiment flashing GSI's.
Thanks
Try the Pixel Experience, I'm not sure it is treble but I think so, I can not tell you certainly because I was the owner of Redmi 5 but for a problem I brought him for assistance.
Nope, not working. I already knew about those ROMs.
Only 8.1 LOS is treble
Just a small request. Can any developer just give us a TREBLE enabled ROM ?
The last one updated is a LOS 15.1 TREBLE ROM.
Which still works with latest GSIs and beats the hell out of all the other "Optimized" ROMs.
Just check the fluidity by yourself.
Can anybody just give as an updated TREBLE ROM or at least an updated vendor img ?
All

You can't simply request official support. Not from maintainer, not from Lineage team. Either use unofficial builds, or don't.
