[NOTE]
|
||
|
|
====
|
||
|
|
*Do not acquire a Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro with the intent to run Mobile NixOS
|
||
|
|
on it.*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This is *not* a recommended device.
|
||
|
|
====
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is of utmost importance that you read and familiarize yourself with

|
|
the CFW megathread]. Not doing so *will result in a brick*.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Again, *you will almost assuredly brick your phone* unless you read, understand
|
||
|
|
and follow instructions pertaining to

the community CFW and the Redmi Note 8 Pro].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally, as a last warning, you *will need* the

community CFW for the Redmi Note 8 Pro].

Otherwise *irrecoverably bricking is almost guaranteed*.

=== Recovering from a brick, quick notes
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If you're told “Please select a valid authentication file or ask for
|
||
|
|
help.” it may be a red herring _as long as you were mindful of not flashing a
|
||
|
|
stock Xiaomi preloader and lk, and sticking to CFW_. Make sure you are *not*
|
||
|
|
holding power or a volume key when you plug the device in.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is unknown what is necessary to be flashed using SP Flash Tool when
|
||
|
|
recovering a bricked device. For some bricks it seems that flashing only `boot`
|
||
|
|
is required. For other bricks it seems more is needed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
=== Fastboot commands
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
With the engineering preloader and aboot (lk), unknown for the stock Xiaomi
|
||
|
|
one, it is not possible to `fastboot boot` a boot image.
