Can't find builds for Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro "tulip"

Hello, first time poster here!

I would like to install e/OS/ on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro “tulip”, but I can’t find any builds for this device, even old ones.

https://images.ecloud.global/community/twolip/

I’ve already installed e/OS/ in the past. In fact I’ve archived the following build: recovery-e-0.23-q-20220325173215-dev-twolip.img. I understand e/OS/ is no longer being developed for tulip, but I would like to download the last R community build. Is there an archive of those builds somewhere? Do any of you has a more recent build than recovery-e-0.23-q-20220325173215-dev-twolip.img?

Thank you very much and keep up the good work! e/OS/ is a rare gem indeed in the awful smartphone business.

For lack of good alternatives, I use a lineage-21-twolip-signed (vanilla), as I’m not aware of any unofficial /e/OS S/T/U. However, this is an alternative worth mentioning.

As is so often the case, GApps are recommended per MindTheGapps. The fact that MicroG Services can be installed instead, because the LOS CustomROM supports signature spoofing, is not mentioned at all. I use one of these options Strangely enough, I often come across this silence about MicroG, regardless of whether it is an (un)official CustomROM or CustomGSI.

This seems like a job for @ronnz98 :pray:t3:
Would be awesome to have the latest version of e/os for this device.

hello @matteobin, welcome to this forum.

thanks for responding @Punk,
the build is fresh from this morning !

Woah nice, thanks a lot!

I could build using LOS sources, but do not have install intructions. You need to look at xda forum

Bull’s eye! Syst/e/m starts and can be set up. Congratulations @Ron :clinking_glasses:

Thank you, installs fine, but camera is not working. Camera works in 2.3 legacy.

Yes, I’ve also noticed this bug in the meantime.

Does other cam apps works? like Footej 1?

No, none of them work, not even the most uncomplicated Fossify Camera

Hello @piero, thanks for your message.
I was able to install your e/OS/ 2.3 20250121 LEGACY build on my twolip, however the browser app keeps crashing.

It’s impossible to use a browser app, both the default one and others installed via F-Droid. Could you please help me you?

Thank you very much! :slight_smile:

if only the e-browser crashing, i could consider it outdated, but all browser crashing, it is not normal !

i realised i builded a bit too fast (for the series) last month,
so i plan to rebuild soon, one by one…

.

Edit :

build released, please update feedback

Today I installed e/OS/ 2.3 20250223 build on my twolip and I’m very happy to report that the browser crash issue has been solved.

Thank you very much, @piero! Do you accept donations for the wonderful work you are doing to let others keep using e/OS/ compatible legacy devices?
