Hi all
Today i present to u Kali Nethunter supporting OnePlus 2 for the newly released android 7.1 nougat rom.
I'm going to keep this post short an sweet so assuming ur device is prepared and installed latest TWRP, we should be ready
NOTE: This is an overlay-Rom which means that there's no need to wipe system, data, etc...etc...
HOW TO INSTALL:
>First download the zip below and place on the root of ur device.
>Now boot into TWRP recovery (if u forgot is volume down and power) and select install, now select the zip u downloaded and swipe to flash.
>After reboot, head straight to the Nethunter App (Grant Root Access)
>Open Chroot Manager and Grant Root Access then close off and reboot.
Note:If u flashed the one without chroot plz follow the steps below;
>Go to Kali Chroot Manager and Click on Download Latest when Prompted, choose FULL CHROOT. and wait for it to download and then install.
>Once completed u may get a prompt saying to ADD METAPACKAGE and u will see a list to select from. (OPTIONAL)
(Note: Kali Nethunter Metapackage contains everything needed to run NetHunter, so be sure to only add extra metapackages if they're really needed, especially if disk space is running low. U can find out more about Kali Metapackage here.
>select ur desired package and it will download and install so let it do it's ting
>All left to do now to to close off and reboot. That's it:victory::highfive:
Note: Boot may take up to 5 min.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATES/FIXES:
>HID support is now working...
I have been working on compiling the kernel to support the HID attacks for the past week and it's now working great.(Let me know how it worked for u) The links below have been updated as of 12/12/2016, but if u already have nethunter installed and dont want to flash the entire rom again, feel to download and flash the kernel from here.
>USB Keyboard keeps stopping error...
If u are having problem with the usb keyboard, uninstall old one and install new one from here.
>Terminal keeps stopping error...
If u are having problem with Terminal, uninstall old one and install new one from here.
>Boot up takes too long...
For some reason boot up takes long so add this line to end of /system/build.prop using ur favourite text editor:
Code:
ro.config.hw_quickpoweron=true
It will take effect after reboot/power on/off.
>Installing cowpatty...
Cowpatty is not required but recommended by wifite and it is not installed, so open a kali terminal an enter:
Code:
apt install cowpatty
>Added oos 3.5.8 support
Have not tested, so u can let me know if works. Fixed... Working now.:good:
>Tested and working on 7.1 nougat based Roms like Resurrection Remix, halogenos, etc...
>Fixed super su brick sensor issue.
>For atheros chip based adapter users who are unable to get their wlan1 up or even shown in the terminal follow these instructions:
1- goto "nethunter terminal" app and tap on "Kali"
2- type "apt-get update"
3- type "apt-get install firmware-atheros"
4- check "airmon-ng" after re-plugging your adapter
>For realtek chip based adapter users who are unable to get their wlan1 up or even shown in the terminal follow these instructions:
1- goto "nethunter terminal" app and tap on "Kali"
2- type "apt-get update"
3- type "apt-get install firmware-realtek"
4- check "airmon-ng" after re-plugging your adapter
>For chips other than (realtek or atheros) users are asked to follow these instructions:
1- goto "nethunter terminal" app and tap on "Kali"
2- type "apt-get update"

well technically you cant fix it unless you compile cm14.1's kernel with this https : // github . com/pelya/android-keyboard-gadget
or we have to wait for a kernel release from the OST "trace github's commits on the nethunter-devices repo"
in order to modify the kernel someone from the OST mentioned the use of mbtool.

Sensors were not working after complete SuperSU unroot so I restored the backup, removed script that flashes SuperSU from the zip, reflashed and everything seems to be working! Great job!

The SuperSU problem was in fact trickier than I assumed. Nethunter Terminal didn't work after removing SSU from the zip file so I had to substitue it with a SSU modified by Seraph08 that does not break sensors. Modified SSU is available in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/development/6-0-x-cyanogenmod-13-oneplus-2-t3292436
Looking forward to fast charge!
Does the rom include gapps?
THIS GUIDE IS FOR THE MOTO G6 PLUS ONLY
4: Custom Roms
What are custom roms? Simply put they are modified versions of Android containing advanced tweaks, stability, and performance. Custom Roms are device specific for the most part. In other words, a Rom for the Moto G6 Plus will not work on a Moto G6 or G6 Play. There are a few exceptions to this rule, but they do not apply to the Moto G6 family so I won’t get into detail about it here. As of Android 8.0(Codename Oreo), Google has redesigned the framework of Android with a system called Project Treble. I will get in to that more later on in the Generic System Image(GSI) section of this guide, but to quickly summarize, it means Custom Roms that do not have to be built to be device specific. For a more detailed analysis of custom roms you can read the information in the spoiler tags below.
Spoiler
Android is a free open source software(FoSS)! This means anyone, anywhere in the world can help contribute to Android. This allows developers to add, remove, or modify the source code, and even publish there modified source code for others to use. The most popular example of this is called LineageOS(formerly CyanogenMod(CM)). At one point it was reported over 50 Million people ran CM! Why did 50+ million people decide to ditch the standard Android software provided by the phone’s manufacturer? There are a number of reasons such as :
Bloatware: Stock firmware is commonly infested with applications installed by your carrier to generate more revenue. Rom’s do not have this problem.
Updates: Android updates typically require approval by the carriers as they want certain functions disabled (tethering for example), to make you pay extra for this feature. Since carriers have they final say when updates are pushed out to devices, and wanted bloatware installed, etc, users were lucky to receive security updates. Users were even luckier to see a version update (Oreo to Pie for example). Rom’s do not rely on a carrier to be updated.
Stability: Since users were lucky to receive updates, you were forced to live with bugs for a long periods of time. Maybe even the entire life of the device. Since Custom Roms receive regular updates, this means bugs were fixed in a timely manner.
Performance: Custom roms are usually more optimized for the hardware they run on then stock roms. They may overclock your phone’s processor(CPU) to make it function faster then it was originally designed.
There are other various reasons but you get the idea.
For a list of features added to LineageOS (read this). Other roms may or may not include these features and more!
So how do you install a custom rom? Currently Moto G6 Plus users have access to LineageOS 15.1 (Based on Android 8.1). LineageOS 16(Android 9 Pie based) is in the development stage. There is no time line on a release just yet so not ask for an ETA! Let’s get started!
Downloads:
++Download these files to your PC.
*ADB and Fastboot Installer for Windows - (Download) - When prompted to install a driver type the number 0 and hit enter. This will install the latest version of adb and fastboot where it is system-wide. This eliminates the need for adb.exe or fastboot.exe to be in the same folder as the files you will be working with. NOTE: Windows will flag this as a virus! The installer is open source and made by a Moderator here on XDA. It is a False Positive. You can view a VirusTotal report (HERE). 26 out of 67 virus scanners report it as a virus. If your Anti-Virus is one of the ones that flag it as a virus, I would suggest you explore other Anti-Virus software, but that’s not what this guide is about.
* TWRP - (Download) - This is a modified Recovery Software allowing you to flash files that will allow you to fipe your device and install custom roms and other various things. Thanks to XDA Member @erfanoabdi who has ported it to our device.
++Download these files to your phone’s sdcard(Do not place them on the internal storage)
*Magisk - (Download) - Download the Stable version here. While not required, I do suggest you download the Latest Uninstaller and Latest Magisk Manager as well.
*copy-partitions-AB.zip - (Download) – Our phone is what’s known as an A/B device. This translates into slot_a and slot_b. The means we have a system_a partition and a system_b partition for example. By default some of these _b partitions are empty. This will populate these empty partitions with a copy of the data on the respective _a partition to help prevent you from bricking your device!
*LineageOS 15.1 [Unofficial] – You have 2 options:
lineage-15.1-20180811-UNOFFICIAL-evert.zip – This version was built on August 08 2018 by @erfanoabdi and @rahulsnair who are the real developers for the Moto G6 Plus.
lineage-15.1-20181003-UNOFFICIAL-evert.zip – This version was built on October 03 2018 by me Xplorer4x4. This version uses the same device specific binaries and source code @erfanoabdi and @rahulsnair used, but uses updated LineageOS source code. This is a bug fix release and does not include additional features.
Gapps – These are Google Apps like YouTube, PlayStore, Gmail, and more. -Again you have two options:
-OpenGapps – (Download) – Personally I prefer OpenGapps as you can customize which apps you want to install. The only downfall is that when you flash an update to LOS, you will have to flash Gapps again. In the Platform Column choose ARM64, in the Android Column choose 8.1, and then you can choose any Variant. I personally use the Nano Package and manually install the Gapps I want form the Play Store.
-MindTheGapps – (Download) – What you get is what you get. You don’t get to choose which gapps are installed, but if you flash an LOS update in the future, you won’t have to flash them again.
Please keep reading for detailed instructions on how to install LineageOS 15.1.
WARNING: This will wipe out all apps and data stored on your phone! It will not wipe your SD Card. Any apps purchased/installed from the Play Store can be restored using WiFi or LTE when you are done installing a ROM.
Known Bugs: Everything works except making calls with Bluetooth devices.
Instructions:
*On the device:
4A: Open the settings app and navigate it in this order: System -> About.
4B: On the About screen scroll down to Build Number and tap on it 5 times. You will see a notification at the bottom of the screen that says “Developer Options Enabled.”
4C: Tap the back button, and open Developer Options.
4D: Find “Android Debugging” and enable it.
*On your PC:
+Windows:
4E: Using Windows Explorer, navigate to the location of twrp-3.2.3-42-evert.img. Hold the Shift Key on your Keyboard. While holding Shift, Right Click in the window(not on the file). Depending on your windows version you should see either "Open PowerShell Window here" or "Open Command Window here." Select which ever one applies. You will see a black and white screen or a blue and white screen. The steps are the same no matter which screen you see.
copy-partitions-AB.zip
+Linux:
4E: Using your favorite terminal interface, navigate to the location of twrp-3.2.3-42-evert.img.
+Linux + MAC + Windows:
4F: Simply type(or copy and paste) the following command:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-42-evert.img
*On your device(it should be booted in to TWRP at this point):
Create a TWRP Backup: Tap Backup -> Select Storage -> Micro SD Card - > OK. You will see a section that says "Select Partitions to Backup." Make sure to select all of these boxes. At the bottom of the screen Swipe the Blue Button where it says “Swipe to Backup.” When this is done, tap the Home button.
4G: Now tap on "Select Storage," select Micro SD Card, and tap OK.
4H: Navigate to the location of the copy-partitions-AB.zip and tap on the zip.
4I: Swipe the blue arrows button next to “Swipe to confirm Flash.”
4J: Tap the home button.
4K: Tap Wipe → Format Data(Do not tap Advanced Wipe, or Swipe for Factory Reset).
4L: Type yes
4M: Tap the blue check-mark in the bottom right corner.
4N: Tap Home button.
4O: Tap Install->Select Storage→Micro SD Card→OK
4P: Tap lineage-15.1-20180811-UNOFFICIAL-evert.zip or lineage-15.1-20181003-UNOFFICIAL-evert.zip
4Q: Swipe to install.
4R: When flashing is done, tape the home button.
4S: Tap Wipe→Format Data→Type yes→Tap Blue Check Mark at bottom right corner.
4T: Tape Home button when done.
4U: Tap Reboot → System
Congratulations, you have installed Lineage OS but we are not done yet! Let the device boot until you see the LineageOS Welcome screen. Note that the first time booting up a custom rom will take longer then a typical reboot. It should take no more than 5 minuets to complete!
Once on the LineageOS Welcome Screen, you can complete the setup or reboot back to your bootloader. Once the device powers off, hold the Power Button and Volume Down button until the bootloader displays on the phone screen.
4V: Boot TWRP again:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-42-evert.img
4X: Tap install and navigate to the directory where you placed your gapps.zip and Magisk.zip.
4Y: Tap the Gapps.zip and choose add More zips.
4Z: Tap the Magisk.zip and Swipe to install.
We need to Wipe->Format Data one last time or else your Gapps will give you multiple errors when you boot LOS again. Once you have Formated Data, you can now reboot to system and enjoy LOS!
Small error?
Thanks for the effort that's gone into this post.
Just a quick editing note: the link to download Magisk (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=5862345805528069013) seems to point to twrp-.2.1-37-evert.img rather than Magisk.
Detailed excellent guide. Almost everything covered.
Btw what advantage this twrp 42 holds over the one from twrp site?

Use the version from twrp website. I haven't had a chance to update the guide. Encryption is supposed to work on official twrp but I think myself and other testers verified encryption is not working right now.

What are the steps to compile for this device? Can you provide that information please? I have compiled for others, but this one is new to me and I think you use some configuration or additional files.
@Xplorer4x4 can you provide me your local_manifest file?
Does anyone know if we have any microg rom options for the Moto G6 plus?
Followed your instructions, after step 4U the device stays completely dark, no bootloader, no volume down + power key helps, nothing.

Thanks, I discovered the first thread after stopping banging my head against the wall. It actually worked. I can now use fastboot and adb etc. again. AFAIK, it is not possible to flash twrp recovery, it has to be booted on demand with adb/fastboot? I tried flashing lineage recovery instead, maybe I should not have done that, idk. Anyways it still booted to fastboot after that. I also seem to be confused by the a/b scheme.
Anyways I started all over with the copy-partitions-a-b (as I had a completely broken system, I cant imagine syncing the gargabe between a and b would help much?) and flashing lineage 17.1 again. It now boots to lineage. I rebooted to fastboot/twrp again to sideload opengapps (are they a/b compatible yet?!).
And how do I get a working recovery system again? I can't flash twrp? Can I flash lineage-recovery? Or something else?
And what does "active a" in twrp actually mean? That it will flash to "b"? Or that it will flash to "a"?
---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------
I has just booted once to LineageOS, after trying to install Gapps, it's stuck in a bootloop. Going to twrp and selecting either A or B and then clicking on reboot, warns "no os installed"!

Your internal storage is devided into several partitions e.g. /system, /vendor, /boot and /(user)data. The option format data is the same as the option factory reset. Both of them delete all your apps, settings and so on.
Your OS and all related Moto stuff is stored on /system (OS) and /vendor (Moto). By default they are unmounted, but could be mounted as r/w. If you delete them, you won't boot because no OS is installed.

Alright, So I am a bit Moderately skilled to Custom Development. I do not know a lot of in-depth either.
However, I do know enough to help other new beginners out.
As I continue to learn more info and details, I will update this post frequently.
Completed guide, I'm saving and typing as not to lose progress. Last Updated- 01/03/2021
Please do note, CROSS-VERIFY if the info here is correct before following it.
What is a Custom ROM?
Simply put, it is a new Operating System [OS].
People find their stock (the one you got with your phone) to be boring, or they dislike it or want more customization and optimization, lesser bloatware (useless unwanted system apps).
Thus some Developers made their own ROM (aka OS). Then others made it compatible with our phone. Sometimes this works perfectly, most of the time it doesn't. Thus Asking people how the ROM is, is always good to ask.
STABLE means almost no errors, UNSTABLE means a few/lots of errors.
OFFICIAL means the Developer in charge will keep updating it and has been granted the task officially. EOL means End Of Life, aka Developer, won't work on it anymore.
FOD means finger on display icon, FP means fingerprint sensor, SOT means screen on time or how long your battery will last.BB means Battery backup, or how long the battery will last.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How To Get a Custom ROM?
So, to flash (insert) a new Custom ROM, we first need to unlock the Bootloader. The Bootloader is what allows us to wipe (remove/erase) our data, and current OS and flash a different one.
Then we flash a Recovery. (A software that makes flashing and wiping and other stuff easy)
Then flash the ROM, Then (if needed) vendor+firmware, gapps, magisk.
So in k20 pro/Mi 9t pro, there are 5 vendors. Indians use Indian Vendor, Chinese users use Chinese Vendor, similarly for EEA, Russian, and Global.
In this Vendor zip file, nowadays, the firmware is included in them, so it isn't required to flash it separately.
If you are coming from miui 11 and want to flash custom ROM you don't need to flash the vendor.
If you are coming from miui 10 to custom ROM Android 10, you need to flash the miui 11 vendor along with the ROM.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
How To Unlock Bootloader?
So, you should first update your software to the latest miui OS [current: MIUI 11].
Go to Settings > About Phone > tap on MIUI Version 7 times -> you unlock developer settings
Go to Settings > Additional Settings > Developer Options > enable (switch on) USB Debugging > OEM Unlocking > click on MI Unlock status > link account and device.
To link the account, you must first have a Xiaomi MI account. You can make this in settings, or head to https://account.xiaomi.com
Wait 7-15 days
Once 7-15 days have passed,
USING WINDOWS PC
BACKUP ALL FILES, CONTACTS, WHATSAPP, ANY APP settings (if any), AND SYNC/LINK accounts to cloud => YOU WILL LOSE EVERYTHING NOW
Now download the Mi Unlock tool onto your PC https://xiaomitools.com/mi-unlock-tool-en/
IN A SEPERATE FOLDER
Then download Platform Tools from attachments below.
Then download TWRP (team win recovery project) from https://dl.twrp.me/raphael/
Then download Orange Fox Recovery (OFRP) from https://files.orangefox.tech/OrangeFox-Stable/raphael/ and download the latest file. [Currently: OrangeFox-R-10.1_3-Stable-raphael.zip]
Then download Disable force encrypt zip file from attachments below
Then download adb drivers from https://www.xda-developers.com/what-is-adb/ version 1.4.3 onto your PC and run the application. (Follow from How do I install ADB?) (Or you can skip that and just get the file from attachments below and extract it to C drive as a separate folder directly)
Then download the ROM (links are given below)
Then download gapps (optional). from https://opengapps.org/ and select ARMx64 and PICO then the download button.
Then download Magisk (optional). from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases download the Latest Magisk-vXX.xx.zip file there.[Currently: Magisk-v20.4.zip]
Download the latest vendor file from the below links. (make sure it's the proper file for your device's variant.)
Vendor and firmware are both combined and included in the same zip file.
Global, EEA (Europe), China, Russia Q Vendor: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/vendor/raphael/
Indian Q Vendor: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/vendor/raphaelin/
Check my third comment to learn how to recognize which device variant is yours, and what vendor to download and flash.
NOW! GET READY!
Now, connect your device.
Use your cable included in the box (the charging wire) and connect it to your phone and PC.
Go to 'adb' folder in your C-drive, (on that address bar thing where it shows) This PC >OS(C> adb click on it and type cmd . This will open a Command prompt to that folder.
Type adb devices and on your phone tap on the authorize button that pops up when unlocked. Now type adb devices again.
you will get
Code:
List of devices attached
365278234e device
Now, Switch off your phone.
Open the MI Unlock Tool on your PC, run the file that is an application. Read through everything, click on unlock, confirm.
Wait till the phone fully reboots itself. DON'T TOUCH IT NOW!
Congrats, the phone is now unlocked, and you have stock MIUI 11.
Now skip everything in the setup (we wanna add a custom ROM now remember, why stop here?)
again do the adb devices. You should get the same results.
Now, on your PC
Extract the Platform Tools zip file so you get its folder.
Move the TWRP.img file into the folder.
Open that folder. on that address bar, type cmd to get a new command prompt window.
There type dir *img to confirm the file is found properly.
Now switch off your phone again.
press and hold the power button + volume down button.
you will soon enter fastboot mode.
Now, on the new command prompt where you typed dir *img
type fastboot devices and you will get an output like
Code:
342524356 fastboot
Then type fastboot flash recovery twrp(press the TAB key to autofill)
Now it's done! you have TWRP, but it isn't permanent.
Now, TWRP usage.
Now press and hold power key + volume up to enter TWRP.
Once in TWRP, unlock it.
Go to MOUNT and check if MTP is enabled..... click on "enable MTP" button.
Now copy the ofox.zip (orange fox recovery zip file) to your phone from your PC via your PC.
Now go to INSTALL tap the ofox.zip file, then flash it!
YAY now, orangefox is your Permanent Recovery.
Now go to MENU > Manage Partitions > select only data > format data
Now go to MENU > Reboot > Recovery
Now, to Flash your first Custom Rom.
Now from your PC copy the ROM zip file, Disable decrypt zip file, gapps ( if specified, optional), magisk ( if you want to root, optional)
Now go to MENU > Reboot > Recovery
Now go to FILES > tap on the ROM zip > add to queue > tap disable decrypt zip file > add to queue > (add gapps , magisk if needed) > flash
Now wait for a while (approx 10mins) till ROM boots up and complete the setup process.
Congrats you have your new ROM.
Now just let google download all your apps
Before you change settings like dark mode or use custom launchers etc...
Reboot once for the heck of it. Then Customize the way you like.
**** Backup Your Persist and save it on your PC always. ****
You can backup persist by having root then downloading a terminal app from Playstore. then typing these two commands
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img

How To Change My ROM? I wanna Try them all!
Now is the easy part, since all the setup is done!
First remove all passwords, fingerprints, and so forth.
For AOSP ROMs: (MIUI below)
AOSP ROMs will not break your L1
First Download the AOSP ROM you want, given below are some examples. (MIUI below)
Each of these might have instructions, usually saying...
Go to your Recovery, (press and hold Power + Volume Up buttons).
Then go to WIPE > select Dalvik, Cache, System, Data > then wipe them all.
Then go to [Files in OFX] [Install in TWRP] and
Only If you are coming from miui and flashing AOSP, go to orangefox settings > manage partitions > data > format > type yes (you lose everything in internal storage) then
Select the Vendor (if it's needed) (not required if moving between any android 10 ROMs) (Just make sure it's the right Vendor for your device/region) (If the previous AOSP rom uses OSS vendor, then you need to wipe vendor as well and flash the stock before proceeding) and flash it.
Select the ROM (Then > add to queue, else if you only needed ROM, just flash. and set-up! yay!)
DFE (not required if you want to be encrypted, which is not recommended.) (A must if you formatted data via orangefox settings and did that typing 'yes' thing)
Gapps (if it isn't already included in the ROM, ask first).
and Magisk (optional if you want root).
For MIUI ROMs: (AOSP above)
First Download the MIUI based ROM you want ( stock, EU, MortalOS, etc), given below are some examples.
Each of these might have instructions, usually saying...
Go to your Recovery, (press and hold Power + Volume Up buttons).
Select the Vendor (if it's needed) (not required if it's currently the proper Vendor, cause EU ROMs to use a custom vendor that works on all devices) (Just make sure it's the right Vendor for your device/region) and flash it.
Then go to WIPE > select Dalvik, Cache, System, Data, Vendor > then wipe them all. (make sure you are on your device's vendor region before wiping it.)
Then go to [Files in OFX] [Install in TWRP] and
Only If you are coming from AOSP and flashing MIUI, go to orangefox settings > manage partitions > data > format > type yes (you lose everything in internal storage) then
Select the ROM (Then > add to queue, else if you only needed ROM, just flash. and set-up! yay!)
DFE (A must if you formatted data via orangefox settings and did that typing 'yes' thing)
Magisk (optional if you want root).
Some Android ROMs
With ROMs being built, changed, and modified on a daily/weekly basis. Some changing to Mi9 fod or LOS fod or using Stock or OSS vendors. Sometimes maintainers shifting or 2 devs building the same rom. The below list is not being maintained anymore. We currently have 50 ROMs. YAY Raphael!

Reverting Back to PIE, moving from Android 10+ to Android 9 -Just don't- (RIN users)
Right, so Anti-Rollback protection is not implemented for k20 pro or mi 9tp. YOU CAN REVERT IF YOU WANT TO.
This is confirmed by users who have reverted, and by Xiaomi.eu website. Which I trust regarding this.
We've done experiments regarding this and have concluded this applies to raphaelin users (Indian variant devices) only. Unsure why, and how it is not affecting the mi9tp variant. (no confirmation with RCN)
However,
When moving from an Android 10 vendor to an Android 9 vendor, your SENSORS will break!
You can fix this simply by flashing your persist img (Hope you took that backup).
You can also fix your sensors by flashing someone else's persist img. BUT YOU WILL LOSE L1 FOREVER.
You can get L1 back by replacing the motherboard which can be done via your warranty at a service center, or by playing a hefty sum of money. nearly half the cost of the phone. NO OTHER WAY. Also, they open your phone, so it isn't SPLASHPROOF as much anymore.
You can also fix sensors by simply updating back to android 10 via the OTA method, which is found in your settings remember. (Unsure if this will retain your L1 though)
BOTTOM LINE, IF YOU ARE ON ANDROID 10, don't go to ANDROID 9 back.
Stuck at Fastboot Fix
Best Recovery
So regarding Recoveries. Choose the one you like the most.
I prefer the latest OrangeFox recovery cause it looks better, has a better UI, better settings, more functionality, and so forth. https://files.orangefox.tech/OrangeFox-Stable/raphael/
You can also choose TWRP if you like. Completely your choice. You can get that from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/development/recovery-unofficial-twrp-xiaomi-redmi-t3944363 and choose the most recent one, and follow the instructions given there.
If you are just comfortable with TWRP. Always use Mauronofrio's, which is recognized as OFFICIAL.
To flash either recovery, just download the zip file, and simply flash it directly in your recovery like you do for a rom (no need to wipe anything) and it will auto-reboot into your desired recovery.
All credits to those who made the recoveries and those people who helped them.
Stuck in Stock Recovery when Rebooting Fix
Full credits to @ SivSomRao (telegram handle, since no XDA)
So, when I screwed my phone trying recoveries, I got stuck in FastBoot. no matter what I did, even Power + Vol Up got me to fastboot, and I had just wiped my OS, so I had nothing to boot into.
This happens when you wipe your SYSTEM and/or VENDOR partitions and choose reboot recovery, or flash an incompatible recovery.
After a lot of stressful minutes, I was scared half out of my mind. A guy named Shivsom helped me.
Basically what he made me do was
Download his file vbmeta_dv_shivsom.img that is given below in attachments.
Then copy the twrp.img file and vbmeta_dv_shivsom.img file to my adb Folder in my WindowsOS C drive.
Now, on your PC. Copy your TWRP.img file, or your OrangeFox.img (I prefer the TWRP.img file by Mauronofrio.)
Open the Command prompt in that folder
You can do this by clicking on the address bar of File Explorer and typing > cmd > then Enter
There type dir *img to confirm the file is found properly.
Now switch off your phone again.
Press and hold the power button + volume down button.
you will soon enter fastboot mode.
Now, on the new command prompt where you typed dir *img
type fastboot devices and you will get an output like
Code:
3e2f2d356 fastboot
Type the instructions
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta_dv_shivsom.img
Then type, (Since my twrp image file was re-named to twrp.img, if you haven't done so, do it)
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
Then press and hold Power and Volume Up till you feel the haptic feedback see the TWRP recovery
Now, TWRP usage.
Now press and hold the power key + volume up to enter TWRP.
Once in TWRP, unlock it.
Go to MOUNT and check if MTP is enabled..... click on the "enable MTP" button.
Now copy the ofox.zip (orange fox recovery zip file) to your phone from your PC via your PC.
Now go to INSTALL tap the ofox.zip file, then flash it!
YAY now, orangefox is your Permanent Recovery.
Now go to MENU > Manage Partitions > select only data > format data > type 'yes' (This will delete everything in your Internal Storage so Caution)
Then quickly flash the latest miui vendor,
Now go to MENU > Reboot > Recovery
I was OverJoyed when this worked.
Now you can flash your Favourite ROM (normal clean flash, tutorial is given above), and then boot the ROM.
This was a nasty disaster. Glad I got through it.
Right, so I tried LR-twrp (it's in Chinese, but I can change the language to English). PitchBlack and PitchBlack-old Both broke my phone to get stuck in fastboot mode no matter what I did.
HENCE I conclude that for all Xiaomi devices, OrangeFox [OFX] is the best recovery. TWRP is suited for Samsung.
ERROR 7 fix and how to modify UpdaterScript
WHAT IS ERROR 7? :
Error 7 is an error that says the ROM you are flashing is not meant for your device.
It does so by comparing the phone's codenames.....
k20p and mi9tp have two codenames, one is RAPHAEL and the other is RAPHAELIN (the Indian variant)
Flashing the Raphael/raphaelin ROM on either device won't cause any problems at all.
feel free to flash it.
Latest orangefox 10.8 works with Raphael (global and Chinese variant) and orangefox 10.6 works with Rapahelin (Indian variant).
Alternatively, It could also be caused because you are required to flash the latest vendor, which you may have not.
So please read the one-line error message that appears above the ERROR 7 red message for more details
SOLUTION to ERROR 7:
I'd recommend flashing the orangefox 10.6 recovery as it's a lot simpler.
However if this doesn't work you can try updating script.
Right, so instead of using a different recovery, you choose to update the updater-script.
Copy the zip folder of the ROM to your PC
You can use 7zip software on your Windows PC. Download this software if you don't have it.
Double click the zip (don't extract it!!!) to open the zip.
Navigate to meta_info> com > Google > Android > you'll find update_script
Find the updater-script. Right-click on it, and choose the "EDIT" option. And edit the word Raphael to raphaelin (if you have the Indian variant of the phone)
Save and exit.

Creating Backups
Creating backups is always the safest thing to do, and you can do so via your recovery (OrangeFox or TWRP)
First, make sure you have everything working, nothing is broken in the ROM.
Second, go to your recovery and tap on Backup. Then Click on Create Backup, rename the file if you want to.
Third, Select all the partitions, cause why not, and let it finish creating the Backup.
Finally copy the backup file created to your PC in a safe location, and later when and 'if' you mess up, you can copy the backup file back and restore it.
You can restore by first wiping everything and formatting. (For safety) Then using the same recovery you used to create the backup, Flash the backup file. DO NO FLASH SOMEONE ELSE'S BACKUP FILES!!!!!! ONLY YOURS!!!!!!
How to Decrypt Your Phone.
So encryption is the safest thing for devices, It uses a secret code/key that only your phone knows to read data and information. However, when in Recovery, we Custom ROM enthusiasts like to have our data DECRYPTED. Now, This is because we can access our files from the recovery, flash ROMs only when decrypted, and transfer files. (If we have MTP enabled in recovery)
Somehow you've found yourself encrypted, which means all the files in your recovery are showing random letters + alphabets. and you cant transfer files to your phone via recovery anymore!
To solve this, or decrypt yourself. You will have to format your data partition (this will delete everything in your internal storage, so I hope you have a backup of your photos, vids, gifs, contacts, and so forth)
Just a bit of quick advice, If you can boot into your OS, go there, and transfer all your internal storage to your PC or laptop before formatting to avoid losing your stuff.
If you can't boot into your ROM, then you'll have to lose all your data in internal storage. No known method is known YET to help without losing the files.
Now the SOLUTION: Go to Orangefox settings > manage partitions > select data > tap on format > type 'YES' > swipe to confirm > you lose all your internal storage data contents, and you are now successfully decrypted.
OR if you are using TWRP. Go to WIPE > (right side button) FORMAT DATA > type 'YES' > you lose all your internal storage data contents, and you are now successfully decrypted.
You can now transfer files to your phone properly.
To stay decrypted and not get encrypted again, flash the DFE (Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_02.02.2020.zip) from attachments below (or from the file attachment called disable_force_encrypt.zip above in the first post/comment) and then boot into your ROM, or if you are flashing a new custom ROM, follow the tutorial above(first post/comment)
If you want to stay encrypted. (I advise against this) Just don't flash the DFE file.
The newer latest updated dfe file I have attached in this comment is from https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389 and all credits for the file go to him. The dfe file in the first comment/post is different and also works.
How to Recognize Which Device You Have And What Vendor Should You Use?
Global, EEA, China, Indian, Russian variant?
All credits for this list go to @joshuah1971 aka Superuser1958 on telegram.
Box Packaging
k20 pro-China: purple+black box with Chinese writing.
k20 pro-India: angled photo of the phone on top+ white box (NO NFC capability. hardware, not software), identifier: raphaelin.
mi 9t pro-Global: black box+ picture of the device on top, English text on side sticker. (model: M1903F11G)
mi 9t pro-RU: same as global but with Russian text+ orange sticker on the phone.
mi 9t pro-EEA: white box.
Software Differences
miui Global: version number will include "QFKMIXM", google dialer, and messages.
miui EEA: version number will include "QFKEUXM", google dialer, and messages.
miui China: version number will include "QFKCNXM", miui dialer, and messages.
miui India: version number will include "QFKINXM", miui dialer, and messages.
miui Russia: version number will include "QFKRUXM", miui dialer, and messages.
So check which device variant it is, and use the appropriate Vendor when flashing. (Go to ROM's Settings-> About phone-> MIUI Version [code in the brackets])
Vendor Links
So regarding Vendors. Choose the one your device needs.
Namely, The Indian Variant is called Raphaelin. So get your vendor from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/vendor/raphaelin/
The Global, Europe, China, and Russian Vendors are gotten from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/vendor/raphael/
What is OSS Vendor? How to switch to the F2FS file system on OSS ROMs only?
What is OSS Vendor?
So our device has 5 variants.
Xiaomi firmware website has all 5 official (firmware+vendor) zip files.
"Always flash your variants vendor."
"Xiaomi never showed us what's in them. Aka closed source"
But this is so confusing for some people. Idky.
Therefore, some devs decided to make a universal vendor that will work on all variants. Since they are making it. They can optimize it and also always know what's in it.
This universal vendor is called an OSS vendor. (Open Source Software) (It's not yet perfect though)
Some custom ROMs don't include vendor (cause OSS isn't perfect yet)
Some custom ROMs include OSS vendor (so we can observe how good it is in daily use)
It's always good to know if the rom is using OSS or if we have to flash the official.
Currently. Since OSS isn't perfect yet. If the rom doesn't include vendor (or it's a custom miui) do not flash/use OSS with it.
How to switch to F2FS File system?
• Go to the rightmost tab on orange fox recovery > manage partitions > data > change FS > tap on f2fs > change FS
• Now reboot recovery
• Now reboot recovery again
• You are now f2fs.

Info about Persist and why it is IMPORTANT to make a Backup
To make a Backup: Go to orangefox/TWRP recovery and select the Backup option and choose the persist.img option and back that up. Make a copy on your PC for added protection.
Persist.img is "persist" which contains data that shouldn't be changed after the device shipped, for example, calibration data of chips(wifi, bt, camera, etc.), certificates, and other security-related files. Persist is having keys to decrypt several pieces of stuff, it is device-specific and you shouldn't flash persist of others, very very bad idea.
How you are losing L1? By flashing someone else persist.img file, and if you have done that you already lost it. You cannot recover it. You can still restore your own old persist back up, and if you are lucky you will get L1 back. Never play with the persist partition it has important information specific to your device.
In case you've just lost it, and you've realized it immediately (cause sensors, pop-up, L1 are broken), & haven't done anything to modify yet. Then you can try to restore the context. Try doing this in a terminal emulator like termux (case-sensitive) Termux is an app on play store (requires root):
Code:
su
restorecon -F -R /mnt/vendor/persist/
There is also this really nice guide by William Feng that explains the same but a bit better here:
Backup and restore persist on K20 Pro and 9T Pro
Pop-up Camera Stuck Open Fix
Does not work on MIUI based ROMs. The App must be used on AOSP ROMs
Due to some reason you did, your phone's pop-up camera is stuck open. Too scared to push it down, or it isn't going down.
Download the apk k20pro_motor.apk from attachments below > Install it > when you open it, the dialog box will inform you to set the current state of the camera. Then click on the button to get the pop-up camera down.
Enjoy. Complete Credits to @acervenky from https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/themes/app-xiaomi-motor-control-k20-pro-t3984181
Xiaomi.eu and other Custom MIUI ROMs
Right, so Xiaomi.eu is a forum like XDA where devs make miui like ROMs without the Mi ads and tracking and are more optimized.
The website is: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/miui-11-0-stable-release.52628/
Under there, you go to MIUI 11 ROMs > stable ROMs > download the proper ROM zip file.
The direct download link is https://sourceforge.net/projects/xi...files/xiaomi.eu/MIUI-STABLE-RELEASES/MIUIv11/ or you can use: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=300229
Now download xiaomi.eu_multi_HMK20ProMI9TPro_V11.0.5.0.QFKCNXM_v11-10.zip CAUTION, the word PRO has to be there. we have k20p not k20.
This works for only Raphael users, not Indian raphaelin users. (For raphaelin users use Orangefox 10.6 it will work then.)
The difference between Stable and beta is that in beta, newer features, security is implemented and tested, this has bugs, once those features are stable, it becomes a STABLE rom, then the next batch of features are added to the beta. Get STABLE though, it's better, the beta has weekly 2GB updates.
Now flashing is easy, Follow the rules in the first post/comment on how to flash a miui ROM.
Equally, you may also choose to use MortalOS which is a debloated MIUI ROM which can be found here -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/k20-pro/development/memeui-12-rc5-09-05-2020-t4097469
Issues Related to L1, restoring, and china-based miui roms
Thanks to @Raaj52 for conducting experiments to confirm and collect this information.
You must have a global/Indian variant phone which currently has widevine working properly to have a chance at restoring it later. China phones can't get L1 (or at least, I haven't learned a way to do so yet.)
What is Widevine L1 and L3?:
Right, so L1 or widevine L1 is a DRM security made by google after they noticed people use root, etc to steal copyrighted videos and movies in full HD and post them somewhere else for free. (Netflix and Amazon prime video app being affected.)
Losing this, means you get L3, and widevine L3 does not allow you to stream Full HD videos anymore, but you can stream SD low-quality videos. Which is never ideal.[
Now, EU latest stable, MortalOS uses modified china vendor with k20p L1 patch
So how do I save my L1 then? L1 Retention?:
Fortunately @Raaj52 found out that if you take a full Ofox or TWRP backup or everything from EU rom, (making a save on the PC, just in case) before moving to those aforementioned China-based ROMs is good.
When you try flashing miui EU latest stable after losing it by flashing a MIUI custom ROM based on China vendors, your phone gets L1, it shows you have L1 too, however, the apps on your phone DO NOT recognize it, technically the phone recognizes the widevine L1 as broken, and somehow considers it L3.
Here is where the Backup you made comes in handy, Clean flashing the backup completely and perfectly restores your L1. He also states that moving from China-based ROMs to AOSP ROMs like EvoX via clean flash (wiping vendor as well and flashing the proper vendor before flashing the AOSP ROM in the recovery) will also restore L1 (remember to format data partition when moving from miui to AOSP)
Now, It should be noted that cross-flashing vendors is very DANGEROUS, as this may break your Fingerprint Sensor, DTBO and proximity sensors. Therefore you must always flash the proper vendor for your phone (global, Indian, china) don't try flashing a vendor that isn't for your device. Unless if it's a custom MIUI rom as custom MIUI Roms come included with a Vendor. (wipe vendor before flashing custom miui ROM, after flash, don't touch the vendor)
Global vendor and Indian vendor are partially similar, and we have reason to believe that EU stable uses a modified vendor that works for both Raphael and Rapahelin. This is why EU ROMs works on both devices (MI 9t-pro and K20-pro)
Some Things to be Cautious about and to note:
Quoting our messages on telegram here:
The basic is, EU rom comes with vendor file so no need to flash a separate vendor for them. Flashing any vendor over the EU might break something because we don't know really which vendor they are using, assuming stables are global and betas are china.
On the other hand, AOSP comes without any vendor file, so it becomes mandatory to flash a vendor based on your device default vendor.
We flash vendors only when we flash AOSP's. In miui custom ROMs vendor is included.
Exception: If something is broken, clean wipe, flash your vendor, and then (advance wipe everything, including vendor) clean flash miui custom/AOSP.
Practically speaking, if you are moving from your stable own rom to Evox or any AOSP, no need to flash vendor since it is already having the default files but this is double confirm that the vendor is correct and it will not harm anyone. (AOSP to AOSP, not required to wipe vendor, but you can if you want to, I recommend wiping it and flashing your vendor again)
These are separate partitions and it will not override but to be on the safer side most rom devs prefer vendor and then rom.
If you flash an AOSP rom and want to move to a custom/stock miui rom make sure that you are own correct vendor. (Prior to wiping it in advance wipe) If not sure flash your vendor once again, then clean wipe and flash miui based rom.

How Get Back To My Stock ROM and/or Lock Bootloader?
To get back to your stock ROM, you have two methods, namely recovery zip ROM flash or fastboot ROM flash.
Get your stock rom from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/miui/raphael/
or if you need the Indian variant, Get your stock rom from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/archive/miui/raphaelin/
Now, AND THIS IS SUPER IMPORTANT. Make sure you double-check and download the proper device's Region, codename, android version, and THE TYPE!!! (there are two types: recovery and fastboot types, choose the one you need)
Now for the recovery method, flash the recovery type .zip file the same way you flash any miui custom ROM. Check guide in first post/comment for method.
Now for the fastboot method, go to your mi-flash tool and enter fastboot on your device, and flash the rom there. (Now, I personally never did this method, so I can't guide the exact steps for this method, sorry)
LOCKING BOOTLOADER: You must first be using the proper stock vendor, stock rom via fastboot, and not have magisk or any MODs running on your phone. If you violate these, you WILL Hard brick your device. It is because of this I VERY STRONGLY advise against locking your bootloader for any reason whatsoever. JUST DON'T!!!
However, you can you the mi-flash tool (safest) or the debloater tool to lock your bootloader if you definitely must do it.
• Download MiFlash tool from MiFlashTool Website . The latest is the top left, marked with a NEW tag.
extract the file, and run the program "XiaoMiFlash.exe"
• Download the stock fastboot miui rom from Fastboot Website and extract the file (if its a .tgz or .tar extract again) you'll end up with a folder with one folder and 11 files (images, flash_all.bat.......misc.txt)
• Now in whatever rom you are on, go to developer settings, enable "OEM Unlocking" and "USB Debugging"
• Now boot into fastboot mode
• Connect your device to your PC
• Now in MiFlash tool, at the bottom, choose Clean all (and dont LOCK IT, I repeat do not choose to lock)
• Then on the top click on the "select" button and navigate to the folder with the 11 files & 1 folder and choose that folder.
• Click on the "Refresh" button and check if your device is shown (indicated by random numbers/letters)
• Now (recheck if its only CLEAN ALL only, and NOT lock or anything else)
• Now flash
• Wait 420s approx, or more, or less.
• It'll finish with an error and the message will say
• "error: Not catch checkpoint (\$fastboot -s . ' lock),flash is not done"
• This is cause it did not lock your bootloader. THIS IS GOOD.
• Now wait 5-10mins while miui 12.5 loads up/boots, it takes a while.
• Now, close MiFlash program, its done, no more needed.
• Now that's done, use miui 12.5 if you want, or go to recovery
• You'll see you have stock recovery now
• So go to fastboot mode, (phone connected to PC)
and flash the ofox recovery.img to get ofox recovery. via the cmd command like usual.
• Then go to recovery ofox.
• Go to wipe > format > type yes > format data to decrypt
• Reboot to recovery
• Now copy your ofox zip file to phone,
• Now flash that file to make OFOX permanent
• Now reboot to recovery again.

Latest MIUI-CN builds and miui custom ROMs soft bricking your device? (Mostly Raphaelin users)
Right, so this is a Xiaomi thing, which happens to many Xiaomi-based devices. It was later observed by a member on telegram that this usually happens to devices without NFC. In our case of Raphael - This would be Indian devices or Raphaelin devices.
I personally haven't experienced this, so I can't give a personal experienced-based guide on fixing this. However, another user on telegram @rockyanexpert solved his problem and shared this guide given below with me.
[
System has been destroyed. What I did:
1. Panicked a little
2. Started my lappy

Right, so I actually had the same doubt for a while. Noone in the group seemed to properly answer this.
Some said you should, some said you shouldn't.
So I talked to the devs of note 2 (my old phone, most members now have xiaomi phones)
They all said system is required to be wiped.
However before they answered. I can already listened to our group members and figured, I will not wipe system and flash my ROM as it is.
When I did this. I noticed the recovery throwing an error from magisk. That magisk modules aren't linked to anything, and this will/may cause problems.
After reading that message I realised. System wipes everything. And if you are dirty flashing/ clean flash with no mods. System is not required to be wiped.
However most people use magisk modules. Root changes, 75hz mods and so forth. This is when system is required to be wiped.
Now. As a general rule. It is good to wipe system. No harm is being done in wiping it. Hence I reccomend it.
Although, if anyone does have a particular reason that system shouldn't be wiped. I'd love to hear the explanation of it. But this is what I know of after research. I'm still no expert in everything.

Good guide. Have a bump.
But till this day (Jan 6, 2020), no custom roms are stable or bugfree enough for the exception of xiaomi.eu
Default MIUIrom just works. But I hope in the near future we get to see bugfree roms and I will certainly try it! I have always used PE on my previous phones.

Nah, Mount is to send/transfer files.
Since you arent doing that, you dont have to mount system or vendor, but mount your internal storage though.
and for the L1 flash, mount vendor for that only, soon a magisk mod will be available for it.
So when do we need to flash disable force encryption?
If I am correct, you can simply format data and get rid of your encryption. In this case you do not need to flash disable force encryption. Also, can't you just decrypt before starting the flashing process?
I've tried RevOS and I came back to mmx.
And widevine L1 is not break. Everything gone fine.

DFE is to remove encryption.
when you format data partition, you remove the dfe. You do this when moving from AOSP to miui or vice versa.
you can't decrypt before flashing cause there isn't a system or any data to decrypt. After you add a ROM or data, you can decrypt that.
yes, the format will get rid of your encryption. (but you also lose all your data) so flashing dfe helps retain your data. If you're scared someone will go to your recovery and steal data, add an orangefox password in its settings. Alternatively, you also have the dm-verity settings in orangefox settings you can enable. But redundant as its all included together in the dfe file I've attached.

L3 Fix, Getting L1 after getting L3 for Global and Indian Users.
@Raaj52 Found a solution to fix L3 and get L1 again.
This fix however only works on Global and Indian vendors. (i.e mi 9t pro and k20p Indian variant)
No such solution has been found for china phones, using china vendor, DO NOT CROSS FLASH VENDORS!! it will cause a bootloop.
This patch was made for the latest EU beta, miroom. We hope it also works for future versions, and previous versions, but we are unsure. You can experiment and inform us though in the comments below.
Always have a proper fully working backup of everything rom. As caution. It's always good to take precautions.
Pop-up Camera Stuck Open Fix
Does not work on MIUI based ROMs. The App must be used on AOSP ROMs
Due to some reason you did, your phone's pop-up camera is stuck open. Too scared to push it down, or it isn't going down.
Download the apk k20pro_motor.apk from attachments below > Install it > when you open it, the dialog box will inform you to set the current state of the camera. Then click on the button to get the pop-up camera down.

The patch was intended to work on security patch Jan 20th and above, which maisk is not yet updated too.
(however, @ QasimXAli in the official telegram group did manage to make it work. you can tag and ask him there.)
Currently, the person who made the mod is still working to converting it to a perfect magisk module so it's easier to flash. Also, he is waiting for the next stable update to check whether the magisk module patch will continue to work.
We just gotta wait a bit longer.

Under add-ons, I added how to get WhatsApp dark (currently in WhatsApp official beta, which will roll out to stable in three months.)
For root, everyone just uses magisk latest stable.

I like swift, liv and flux too. but those are straight-forward. I can add them to "add-ons" if you like.
Hi all,
I have created a GSI based on latest PHH AOSP Android 11
What is LeOS:
1. It's full ungoogled
2. It includes full Working MicroG
3. It includes Seedvauld
4. It includes SimpleGallery, SimpleContacs, Silence, Telegram, F-Droid, Jquarks, K9, DAVx5, OpenCamera, ASK, TotalLauncher
5. available as arm64avS, arm64avN, arm64bvS, arm64bvN
6. no google Apps will work !!!!
You can download latest release at https://leos-gsi.de/downloads
Which variant do I pick
To know which variant to download, use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kevintresuelo.treble . Don't use other Treble Check apps, they'll give wrong informations.
Which vendor to use?
1. Always use your actual device's vendor
2. Always use OEM unmodified vendor, not some custom vendor
3. This includes boot.img. boot.img and vendor MUST BE the same version.
4. If you're on an Android 8.0 vendor, you'll need to stick to vendors with Security Patch Level before April 2019 (that's a bug of my GSI)

I'm building from time to time an ungoogled LeOS-Q version, which is based on LOS17.1.
But my main work is building an ungoogled LeOS-R which is based on AOSP
Thanks for your precious share @harvey186
i tried to install Leos on my OnePlus Nord AC2003 (avicii), by following this guide
https://community.e.foundation/t/gs...note-9pro-with-super-partition-and-root/22648
but got the Qualcomm crashdump mode after finishing install and reboot.
Official LOS17.1 is working however, and now i'm trying to build an unofficial eOS build, but would love to have your LeOS working.

Have you tried LeOS Q or LeOS -R ?? Which Android version (Pie or Q) was installed on your device ? Are you using OEM vendor or from a custom rom. Most issues are from not using OEM vendor sources.
We have one user which have installed LeOS on a AndroidGo device successfull

I tried LeOS R 20210106-RW-bvS.img.xz 2021-01-09 11:13 686M
My OnePlus Nord is delivered with Q (Oneplus 10.5.10 for the moment), and i think i'm using OEM vendor, since i haven't modified anything else.
From my understanding, it's an ARM64 A/B device, is the RW-bvs the correct ROM to use ?
Can you please tell us what's the meaning of RO RW avs avn bvs bvn ?
Thanks
OK, first a stupid question: You have decompressed the xz file ?
Why have you used such an old version ? Please try the latest. Yesterday I have uploaded a new set of GSI.
RW means system partition is write able. It's for people which want modify anything on /system.
RO means that system partition ins not write able. But all about versions you can find https://leos-gsi.de
Normally this way should work unlocked Q devices:
>adb reboot bootloader
>fastboot devices
>fastboot reboot fastboot
>fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
>fastboot reboot fastboot
>fastboot erase system
>fastboot reboot fastboot
>fastboot flash system LeOS.img
>fastboot -w
>fastboot reboot bootloader
>fastboot erase userdata
>fastboot reboot
if stuck in bootloop
>reboot in TWRP
>flash permissiver.zip
>reboot system
Great idea creating the ungoogled ROM! But it seems to be on the alpha stage yet, as I'm experiencing many issues after installing it to my Redmi 7A 3/32:
1) Screen is blinking sometimes, also brightness slider works very weirdly..
2) On initial load when opening location settings it crashes
3) When in battery saver mode the notifications indicator light constantly blinking and there's no setting to turn it off
4) Many apps have issues accessing SD card or even internal memory, so it makes them impossible to use (like apk downloaders, music players)
5) Contacts and calculator apps are missing, had to install additionally
The rest seem to be fine, the great thing is that all Magisk modules I use (Xposed, ViperFX, Dolby Digital) are working flawlessly!
To sum up - great work so far, but still requires a lot of polishing. Good luck!
Always make sure your system partition is big enough when installing. Apps missing or settings tabs not working correctly are symptoms that gsi did not install correctly.
thx, but I think it's more than a beta status.
to your issues:
1. it's a know issue of your device. On other devices it works as it should.
2. Seems you using an older version. It's fixed since January versions
3. Do you using OEM vendor? And which Android OEM version are the vendor sources ? A9 or A10?
4. Are you using FOSS apps ? Or Apps from Play Store ? Normally all apps have access to externalSD. You have to allow it. That's a A11 feature
5. You will never find a ROM or GSI wich has all apps you need. Most peopel are using the mini version because they don't want any default app.
I think you should try the latest LeOS from yesterday with the latest OEM vendor sources.
Sorry, i think you're confusing me with the user above me. Was just trying to help... I don't have this gsi installed

@uduro decryption does not work for any Android 12 system currently. So you gotta have to live with it, until we get decryption support.
instead use adb sideload .zip
