I am planning to use Android 12 with halium 12 for porting effort.
Hopefully it should work

@arubislander Thanks

Just thinking whats the best way to edit files directly on the phone
Can i install sublime text or any other suitable editor on it instead of using nano.
If yes how to install ?
It has been not so good experience so far ...AH

Hi,

I want to change some screen backgrounds and colors for pinpromt screen.I have found pinPromt.qml file but how do i go about changing background image and colors etc

I have cloned lomiri repo from gitlab and was hoping that I would change few files in the Greeter section and that will do the job ?
Please advise

Thanks , that clarifies few things for a newbie.
I am already thinking of selecting an older phone redmi 10 which has android 11 as I just want to make a port successful instead of wandering into unknowns.
So this android kernel from Xiaomi , is it part of their offical ROM image for a particular phone which I have to download as this step is not clear to me from the porting guide

@beyolf said in Xiaomi Redmi Note 12:

Edit: also in the documentation there are 3 porting methods . The method which you should use is the Standalone kernel method , which is also the simplest way (Yayy)

that's cool
lemme have a look at kernel method

thanks

Hi,
Finally the 165 hrs wait period is over an di have unlocked the bootloader using Xiaomi unlock tool.
I checked again on my redmi note 9 pro the android version is 10
MIUI Global 12.0.3 Stable
12.0.3.0(QJZMIXM)

Android version: 10QKQ1.191215.002

so it means that I can go ahread and install touch os on it using the ubports installer ??

Please advise

Thanks

Hi,
I have redmi note 9 pro which came with Android 10 originally but this phone is upgradable to android 12 so I upgraded to Android 12 .
But will it make it uncompatible with ubuntu touch now Or I can still install UB-touch on it ??
