What are our options to multiboot roms in 2020? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
what are our options to multiboot roms on android device with Android 10?
the last option I used was dualbootpatcher which was great and worked flawlessly but the project is now discontinued and will not work on Android 10 roms.
Are there any other options currently working ?
My device is Xiaomi Redmi note 7 if that makes a difference
Regards

As far as I know, MultiROM can work, but it is only for OnePlus devices.
Try porting it if possible, it works well, I've heard.
HIT THANKS IF FOUND USEFUL

I highly doubt it will work, the last commit to the MultiROM project was in 2016, there were ALOT of changes in the core of android since then

[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).

project treble for (Kenzo) Redmi note 3

Hello good developers hope you guys are doing well I just wanna say thanks for the hard and fantastic work you guys have done for Redmi note 3 kenzo.
But as now I can see clearly that Redmi note 3 is dying and there's no hope as there's no project treble support.
So I request you guys to please make Redmi note 3 project treble supported so we can enjoy nice ROMs.
As everyone knows Redmi note 3 runs on marshmallow 6.0 officially and it was already dead but just because of the hard work of good developers it was pretty much saved.
So here is my huge request that please........ please......... please ......make project treble for our Redmi note 3 I mean it's such a shame because even Redmi 3X/Redmi 3S/Prime have unofficial project treble support which is definitely not good as Redmi note 3 and was released at very low price.
Please developers do something please give a little bit of your precious time for project treble (Kenzo).
And please tell me in the comments if any good developer is really ready to make a change..... please guys common just one last thing.... please.

Go to mi forum and Write this to xiaomi developers. Its their job. Xda is for developing kernel and custom roms . not for rewriting vendor code. Its huge work. If u can afford then hire a dev and tell him to rewrite.
And If u don't understand what treble is then google it.

Redmi note 4 is unofficially supported so can Redmi note 3.

Yes. Note4 is supported. Coz it got code from miA1. MiA1 has same hardware and chip like note 4.
Redmi note 3 will get treble if Mi Max get official oreo from xiaomi. We can copy the code. Same hardward and chip.

That will be awesome
We need Oreo proprietary blobs to make treble possible. So if it is found then it can be possible. Don't compare Redmi note 3 with 4

Its not like easy said and done thing.Treble is implemented only from android oreo 8.0, so any device launching with stock version as android 8.0 will support treble by default. Our device is still on old blobs and secondly providing and developing latest blobs is job of OEM not ours. There are lot more complicated stuff!
Ps:- eventually you will get android p's custom rom next year probably ?? without treble (maybe) , believe on devs!
time you got a new phone...be happy with the roms that the devs have developed so far...they pushed it as far as oreo when mi devs just quit at mm
Also, mi max getting Oreo just won't happen, ever. Xiaomi has a policy of 1 major android update per device (except for android one devices). RN3 was released with lolipop, that's why it received MM upgrade and has been stuck there ever since. Mi max was released with MM, so it got nougat as an update and will stay there. Even if Oreo for mi max were to be the once in a lifetime miracle, xiaomi could (and most likely would) release it without treble support since it's optional for devices upgraded to Oreo.
Sony x dual (suzu) has same hardware and has got oreo update , the oreo blobs used in some oreo roms are ported from suzu,there is a device ,copy the code ,it is not that easy ,
@troolie Just to clarify Redmi series phones only get one android version upgrade. So it is still possible Mi Max might get Oreo as Mi Series get at least 2.
Is it true????

Is this true for the cheaper mi phones though? Like the mi4c and mi4i? I dont think they got two version updates. And from what i've seen the mi max miui 10 is still nougat.

Maybe just the expensive versions! For example Mi 5 [gemini] release with Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) and now on Oreo!

Stable oxygenos pie for poco ?

As the title States, is there any oxygenos stable pie ROM available for our device, if it's not available I'd request anyone to port for our beloved device. Undoubtedly oxygenos is better atleast to me it's better than stock. I'd like to see it, as it got ported to many devices like rn5, rn4, 4 and so on. Thank you.

I'd say until this gets ported, if it does.... Try Lineage OS., its basically stock android with extra features, quite similar to Oxygen OS, and the OnePlus devices originally had Cyanogen OS (Lineage OS predecessor) installed on them.
You could also try this magisk module, it would bring some of the OxygenOS features to any ROM as long as you have Magisk installed.

Question can gsi rom be used on redmi note 10?

Hello
can gsi rom be used on redmi note 10?
How can I install it if it is available?
Yes. You need to unlock bootloader first

whats the procedure i have unlocked bootloader
was able to flash Android 12 Gsi successfully.. But couldn't Boot system.
Only gsi arm64 Android 12 worked though.
You can check any instructions on Google because Gsi has one way for all devices. but it's on your own risk.
Sorry for being off topic but what's the difference between the custom roms made specifcally for the device and the gsi roms?

1> Custom ROMs are more Optimized for the devices they are published for. Also, they usually have more features and upgradations while GSI (Generic system Image) is better than plain simple vanilla AOSP (Android Open Source Project) in most cases and are supposed to have a higher chance of adapting for installation on any supportive (ARM architechture etc.) device.
2> Custom ROMs are usually larger in size (1Gb/2gb etc. ) while GSIs are usually smaller in size
( 500Mb/700Mb etc.)

OctaviOS GSI (GSI Arm64-ab) booted on my Redmi note 10 but Lineage 18.1 is way better as per my opinion, you have to flash Gapps though.
P.S.- I'm still waiting for some more vanilla ROMs OR GSIs to be made for this device butfrom what I know the developer communities seem to be more in favor of making Rom/Gsi (OR Ports) for the PRO versions of Redmi Note series directly, so some of the lower devices not getting enough attention.
