      Hello everyone .
      This is my first post in ubports community ❤ .
      First thank you @kaiyes for your post about porting , i've started from this post 🎉

       

      Important First do full backup of your device

       

      Not Working :

      • WiFi does not work

       

       

      Device

      • Flash Ginkgo Vendor if you are using Redmi Note 8
      • Flash Willow Vendor if you are using Redmi Note 8T

       

      Step 0 : FLash Android 9.0

      • Flash stock android 9 vendor (for example i used V11.0.10.0.PCOMIXM)

      Download your preferred rom from here

      You have many options here for example you can Flash via:

      • Xiaomi Flash Tool
      • Or Fastboot
         

      Fastboot instructions (Linux user) :

      Enter into fastboot for me (power + volume down) or

      adb reboot bootloader
      fastboot devices
      

      flashing script

      tar -xzvf willow_android9_path.tgz && cd willow_android9_path
      sudo chmod +x flash_all.sh
      ./flash_all.sh #flash android 9 vendor
      

      it take times when it's done reboot your device and configure android basics then activate activate again developer options
      (1. oem/unlocking , 2.usb debugging, 3.usb security debugging )

       

      Step 1 : Flashing twrp
       
        Download twrp app for example i used this one
        Download vbmeta for example i used this one

        Enter fastboot and then flash twpr

      fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
      fastboot erase recovery
      fastboot flash recovery twrtp*.img
      fastboot reboot recovery
      

      or you can enter twrp mode via (Power + VolumeUp )

       

      Step 2: How to Flash
      Enter into twrp mode (Power + VolumeUp ) and wipe your data

      Download these ubport files on your pc

      • halium-ramdisk: link

      • kernel: link

      • GSI V10: link

      • ginkgo patches: link

        go to advanced -> adb sideload and load these downloaded files and from your pc load there file

      adb sideload halium-ramdisk.zip
      adb sideload ginkgo_Kernel_4.14-20201015-0455.zip
      adb sideload ubports_GSI_installer_v10.zip
      adb sideload ginkgo-postinstaller.zip
      

      or if you have sd card copy these 4 file your sd card from pc and then go twpr -> install -> select storage -> micro sd storage -> and install these zips follow "sideload" sequence

        Thank you, ubuntu touch works good on my redmi note 8, only some apps from open store isn't working(UT tweak tool(White screen), telegram port) and file manager, front camera. I think i found how to solve wi-fi problem on willow devices, try to flash vendor from ginkgo(Can't check this cause i have ginkgo devise, not willow).(I have found this solution here https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=976545&st=8380#entry101745944).
        and here some screenshots(after updating camera app, it stopped working...used tagger to show camera work)
