Hello guys, i just inherited a Redmi Note 8 Pro. I've been using LineageOS for a lot of time, and I really like the way I managed to set up everything.

I've been searching and because of the processor (MediaTek) it is hard to install Roms, but I really hate MIUI and Google ecosystem, and I don't want to go back to it.

It is really important for me that the rom doesn't have google services.

Any recomandation? I've seen roms like:

CrAndroid
Unofficial LineageOS
HavocOS

Thanks for everything!!

I managed to hard bricked this phone while playing around with various ROM. Thankfully someone uploaded mediatek auth file for this phone that can be used to revive the phone using SP Flash Tool on youtube of all places. You might (eventually) need this too.
