Port status

Icon WARNING: THIS PORT WILL NOT WORK ON THE Redmi Note 12 Pro 4G (sweet_k6a). IF YOU TRY FLASHING IT, YOU WILL END WITH A BRICK!. SEE REDMI NOTE 12 PRO 4G PAGE INSTEAD

Downstream kernel compiles with pmOS's build system but the resulting artifact does not boot. The same source code compiles also using android's build system and the resulting artifact boots. (See below for the required steps.)

Flash modes

  • Fastboot mode: Power + Volume Down (adb reboot bootloader)
  • Fastbootd mode: adb reboot fastboot
  • Recovery mode: Power + Volume Up (adb reboot recovery, fastboot reboot recovery)

Installation Instructions

Unlock Bootloader (if not done)

  • First unlock your device (if not done yet). Use MiUnlock to unlock (Windows only). // If MiUnlock doesn't detect your device, follow this: Google USB Drivers install guide
  • Follow the Instructions on the selected site
  • Note: After that do not log off your Mi Account on your phone or it won't work! It may take 7 days or more to be able to unlock your device!

Install TWRP on Redmi Note 10 Pro

  • Follow these Instructions.
  • Turn the device off (or restart also works)
  • Note: You may need to connect your device to a computer with a USB cord or the phone will skip boot to recovery.
  • Hold Volume Up and Power button
  • Keep holding Volume Up until you see the TWRP recovery Logo.

Install pmOS

  • Mainline aport is currently available at: https://github.com/sm7150-mainline/pmaports
  • Before installing, back up your dtbo partition (using twrp/android: on the device run dd if=/dev/block/by-name/dtbo of=/sdcard/dtbo.img and then adb pull /sdcard/dtbo.img on the host
  • Reboot into the bootloader and erase the dtbo partition: adb reboot bootloader and fastboot erase dtbo if you do not do this, Linux will not boot due to the bootloader trying to merge the dtbo with mainline dtb, which will fail.
  • Install pmOS like normal: pmbootstrap flasher flash_kernel/rootfs

Tips and tricks

If pmOS is installed on a removable SD card android will continuously want mount and to reformat it. Unfortunately it does not look like it is possible to prevent this within android. A somewhat heavy duty workaround is to unbind the device, this requires root:

  • First find out which is the driver responsible for the sdcard:
  
 # readlink /sys/block/mmcblk0
 ../devices/platform/soc/8804000.sdhci/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:0001/block/mmcblk0
 
  • then unbind it
 
 # echo 8804000.sdhci > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/sdhci_msm/unbind
