Terribly sorry but at what point did you make that "backup file"? I couldn't fix bootloop without your backup. Just wondering, since it's so large and probably mi5-only maybe you could just give us instructions how to make a working system without using someone else's backup?

After restore, have been stuck in G logo for 25 minutes, just followed the instruction

I've tried both the methods , but I always end up at this error, please help.
It asks for password and then just reboots into recovery.
There's also a pop up stating "There's internal problem, please contact manufacturer for details"
The above link has the images of the issue.
It would be really helpful if someone can help me boot this rom up. Thank you.

Decrypting internal storage fixes reboots?

---

Yes it did for me.

First method did it for me, too. I had the bootloop after first reboot and it did the trick, everything is working fine, a bit laggy, but Android P is running smooth on my phone!! I think that's very importat that after first boot you install Play Services as stated in OP and let Google finish its whole Pixel Configuration and updates, then you can try and reboot the phone, if you're hit by the bug, just follow what's in OP.
Few things if you install the GSI and have these issues:
- for Magisk, install version 16.4, just install that after you have set up the phone and stuff, you reboot to twrp and flash it, that's the way it works for me;
- if you have missing network on SIM, just go and configure your apn manually, it'll do the trick;
- for MTP, it's not working for me out of the box, the trick is to enable developers options, go to "Default USB Configuration" or something similar (I have it on italian, so I think that's how it's in English) and select the first one option;
Edit: also there's fingerprint that cannot wake the device, I've read in Telegram groups that some fixes are around for fingerprint, I'll check it out later and report if I find something interesting.
