Hi there!
I would also really love to see an official build of /e/ for this phone. Love the hardware but the preinstalled ROM is so bloated xP
As someone above me already pointed out, there is already an unofficial build of LineageOS for this device, if that helps.

Thank you for everything youre doing, cant wait to kick google off my phone, it’s about time : P

Someone else too @ XDA is also asking for a deGoogled Note 8 custom…

BTW I suggest you to collect official customs in a dedicated 3ad to help \e\ porting…

Hello, I am also a Redmi Note 8 Pro user. Totally agree with you, we need a support for this device! There is already an official support for Note 8 and 8T, and for what I know, they are not so different from the “pro” version, at least the first one. Hope that that means it will be easy for them to get a version for our smartphone too!

Your smartphone is, well, smart! :).

I have two people with this model whom I’d love to help migrate to /e/ from the spy- and adware-ridden Xiaomi stock ROM. Both are complete novice smartphone users, so /e/ would be perfect for them.

While I’d be able to perform the initial installation, I won’t be able to provide continuous tech support for them when problems arise, so a GSI is not really an option.

Hello,

first i want to thank you for the project.
For my opinion, you should support the Xiaomi redmi note 8 pro. Because it’s a good hardware base.

Thank you for all the work.

See you
