I've seen some official TWRP builds being a lot worse than unofficials.
As long as every work as expected in recovery, official or unofficial tag should not matter.

I understand your point but better when we have option to chose between official or not.

I think mi note 2 has been out for a long time but it seems that developers without much attention to this phone. I'm curiously Why ?
Because of old story - MIUI never release kernel source code ? or ...
Whatever it is, I would like to see there is lineageOS 14.1 in this phone.

It's the old story of lack of kernel source. Historically kernel sources have been released about 3/4 months after global rom availability, which happened a few days ago.
It doesn't help that availability all round has been limited for these. With so many people wanting the global edition and there being shortages of that model there's just not that many of these around at the moment in the hands of people that want to mod it. MIUI is very popular in China.
I'm hoping another 3-6 months we'll start to see some serious progress.
Luckily it's in the same device tree as a few other recent releases so there's some level of cross compatibility, lithium (Mi Mix) for example would require only minor modification to work and there seems to be more dev interest in that,
I did consider making a cooked MIUI rom for the Mi Note 2 (inc. xposed, root, a few tweaks here and there) but there didn't seem to be much demand and realistically if you want those features you already get them yourself without any real struggle.
I'm an old dev for CyanogenMod on Xperia.
I will try to put Lineage OS when the source of the kernel will be available.
A port can be possible with the source of the One Plus 3t (i supposed) but is better to wait official release of the kernel.

These Lineage builds are by HondaJohn88 who I'm working with.
I've been bugging him to post them himself (when he does I'll get the old thread locked) but he hasn't yet.
Be aware that not every build he uploads is one that he's planning on sharing (or even an improvement over the last) - occasionally things break and some are more for archiving than actual use.
He shares his work in the Mi Note 2 Telegram group so I'd recommend joining so you can find out which build would be the most worthwhile.

Lineages OS support the devices which have no official support from Google seems Lineages OS just have this project, wait and see for ONE M8
Someone need to build it when the source code drops. Until then you won't get any "Oreo"!
Thanks a lot @nolt, @Harrison Le & @mihran_thalhath

I've tried but it didn't pass the bootanimation screen. I don't know what's the problem. I waited more than 30min but unfortunately no success.

Don't you guys see a weird thing when the page says
LineageOS 15 GApps download link for HTC One M8 LineageOS 15 Oreo 8.0 ROM (Download the stock ARM64 GApps)
Since when M8 become 64 bit arch ?
I'll never trust a site with wrong info and put my device on risk of bricking.

I just flashed the rom and rebooted still it stucks at bootloop.
Seriously Guys??? Bruno is the only one right now who is trying to build O for m8. That build on that site was compiled by me, using Bruno's changes. It was not for public testing and someone shared it regardless. Just wait for Bruno to bringup O. Show some patience guys!
A reminder to all users who are willing to try Oreo at this moment:
Since the Oreo source just released, it would be possible custom ROM builds are highly experimental at this early stage. Please do take precautions on these builds and always have a full backup if you would like to try them out.
Stay safe and enjoy flashing!

Thanks for your info. Will wait for official link from your side. I'm here to help you.
Patience is a virtue.
I remember when first versions of N roms dropped - they were mostly working, but not really usable
I'm just going to wait until stable los builds drop, then hopefully we'll get RR and others based on it.

Is it possible for someone to take the oreo build from the Axon 7 and tweak it for the mini or is that wishful thinking

I would suggest patience. Custom ROM development was just started on this phone a few months ago. The main dev working on it, tdm, is trying to get an official LineageOS 14.1 build (Nougat) done. It's not impossible, but I doubt it's easy because although their names are similar, they're two distinctly different devices. It'll be much easier if ZTE goes crazy and does an Oreo update for the Mini.
I wasn't expecting or demanding a working rom. I understand these things take time. I was just curious as if it may be a simple process considering the differences between devices. I have been very involved in the development forums and have been testing and reporting the builds as they are released. I am content with the current releases of custom roms.

Ah, the limitations of typed words. I didn't intend to imply you were being demanding. I'm not a developer, but I doubt we'll see Oreo on the Mini unless ZTE has an official release. I'm currently on Lineage 14.1 on the Mini and every build keeps getting better (with a few bumps along the way of course). I'll love it if I'm wrong about this of course
Sent from my Axon 7 Mini using XDA Labs
Tdm has said a while back that he may begin work on Oreo once LineageOS 15.1 nightlies begin rolling out or when the maintainer for the HTC One A9 builds Oreo for it.

Nugat. Oreo is not stable
I have the unofficial LOS 19.1 currently installed. Other than the lack of TWRP, I'm satisfied with it. But I see there are two other options available. official and crDroid. Is there any reason I should switch to one of those two? Are there differences in the recovery versions? If TWRP was available, I'd just make a backup of my current ROM and give the other two a try. But as it stands, getting back to my working current version isn't that simple.
Why do you have unofficial?

Because it came out first and I haven't been given a sound reason to switch. Why fix what ain't broken?
I like to use the official version. They provide weekly firmware updates.

To each his own. Personally, I don't care about weekly updates. Unless an update fixes something that I use, or it includes a major security update, I don't care about it. Manually updating every couple of months does it for me.
I am also in unofficial build for now but the official thing is making me wanna try it...but should we just flash it and format data or should be flash recovery provided too?
I would follow LineageOS guide. You will use something other than TWRP. You then use one of LineageOS. This one is quite limited but looks nice (not very important). But I don't need all the features of TWRP, I don't understand it anyway. LOL
