Release details: https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/releases/-/releases/v1.18-t
Commits for this release: https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/releases/-/commits/v1.18-t
Everything (including BT, NFC, GPS, camera) tested working, unless proven otherwise 
Installation
- please verify that you have at least the V12.0.3.0.QEECNXM firmware installed, also working with V12.5.1.0.QEECNXM
- if you have previous /e/ installed (any 12/T /e/OS release), just flash it over as usual. Don’t forget to take full backups before flashing and wipe cache+Dalvik after flashing
- I couldn’t decrypt Data partition with TWRP anymore. Update has to be done from SD-Card, OTG USB or ADB sideload.
- to clean flash over another ROM (you will lose your data !) :
- (install +) boot to TWRP (tested OK with 3.6.2_9.0)
- wipe cache + Dalvik + system + system_ext + vendor
- format Data
- adb push zip file to /sdcard
- install with TWRP
- enjoy
- NB : if you applied the 4th button fix, you’ll have to apply it again
Build
Built using /e/ Docker image, with:
-v "/srv/local_manifests:/srv/local_manifests"-e "BRANCH_NAME=v1.18-t"-e "DEVICE_LIST=perseus"
Custom manifest in /srv/local_manifests:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
<project name="LineageOS/android_device_xiaomi_perseus" path="device/xiaomi/perseus" remote="github" revision="lineage-20" />
<project name="LineageOS/android_device_xiaomi_sdm845-common" path="device/xiaomi/sdm845-common" remote="github" revision="lineage-20" />

<project name="LineageOS/android_hardware_xiaomi" path="hardware/xiaomi" remote="github" revision="lineage-20" />
</manifest>
Contrary to your installation instructions, I used the installation steps according to LineageOS Wiki because I wanted to see if and what happens.
So I did not install TWRP but e-Recovery version 1.18 (20231222). The file recovery.img is contained in the file e-1.18-t-20231222-UNOFFICIAL-perseus.zip by smu44.
The entire installation went smoothly with the e-recovery message:
Install completed with status 0.
working: BT, NFC, GPS
working: 4TG LTE (incoming + outgoing calls)
working: Main camera + Selfie camera (slider)
working: Charging - 18W wired, QC4 + 10W wireless
Future manual updates can be done without PC, because e-Recovery supports updating per adb sideload via internal storage and UDB- C stick without data loss.
Thanks for building @smu44
Thanks @Xxpsilon for your feedback!
I will include it in future announcement posts.
I’m wondering if e-Recovery could successfully decrypt an encrypted Data partition… Will give it a try!
I finally ended up with unofficial OrangeFox Recovery (link from https://t.me/MiMix3Global):
- e-Recovery doesn’t include ability to decrypt & mount data partition
- Fox can, and comes with an embedded backup solution (as TWRP did)
- it has excellent guide and FAQ: https://wiki.orangefox.tech/en/guides
Then installation went smoothly
The quality of your ‘unofficial’ ROM was and is first class, @smu44. In an official /e/OS version I only see the advantage for ‘normal users’ that there will be OTA updates in the future.
