"I'm writing this guide for F1f/w users who cannot unlock their bootloader, cannot even access fastboot or even can't flash uberlaggydarwin's magictricks.zip because the F1f/w stock ColorOS has been updated to a version that is above magictricks.zip's script. All credit's go to uberlaggydarwin, because he's the man behind it all, whom enabled F1f/w's fastboot mode."

Don't blame me if anything goes wrong, DWYOR. I'll ignore and laugh at you if you start blaming me. You're here in XDA which means you understand the risks.

Btw you can try other versions of QFIL, just try downloading them one by one. Try other drivers. Because most of the time failing in flashing via QFIL is caused by drivers or the program itself.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] SALVO9:
Hi everyone, I am a few hours away from unlocking my bootloader but I am considering changing phone with a new note 5 because this one has a yellowish colour on the bottom of the screen (is this a thing? has anyone had the same problem?) If I change it and bind the new one to the same account, do I have to wait 360 more hours or will I be able to unlock the new one in the already given time? obviously I won't unlock this one
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers] TheDevFreak:
Yes you would have to wait again since it's a new phone.

ROM Boots perfectly fine if you use the given TWRP,

ROM has no major issues.(for me it lagged and heated more than other oreo roms, but for a initial treble build, its perfectly alright)

- Everything works in RR Treble ROM

About GSI's

HERE is My try on the GSI's

*PURE AOSP GSI didnt boot for me.(reboot from twrp takes to fastboot).

*Bootleggers 2.3 GSI booted.(First boot bootloop, hard reboot booted.)

- RIL, CAMERA, WIFI currently broken.

- BT(kinda), SENSORS, SOUND and rest working fine.

- It was smooth ASF.

* P-GSI wont boot and gives error 255 while flashing.(simg2img ...... process ended with ERROR: 255)

Here is my conclusion:

Any GSI can be flashed and will most probably boot and have the same issues as i have mentioned above.

And for a first try, its great. :p

Once again thanks to Alex for porting treble for kenzo. Good job mate. :)

Tried to debug DP5 a bit, here's what I got:

logd cannot be started due to old kernel.

[ 6.442107] logd: failed to set CAP_SETGID, CAP_SYSLOG or CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL (1)

This change: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/499f3a2aed549a354367587d5c15fbef617098be requires "ambient capabilites", which were introduced in linux 4.3, so someone should backport them or port kernel from suzu (it's 4.4 afaik)

strange error in init.kenzo.rc:

[ 6.026831] init: /vendor/etc/init/init.kenzo.rc: 30: ParseTriggers() failed: && is the only symbol allowed to concatenate actions

Funny thing is there's no '&&' on line 30, even in entire file. Probably encoding issue?

hwcomposer keeps crashing:

[ 9.422548] init: Service 'vendor.hwcomposer-2-1' (pid 463) exited with status 1

along with surfaceflinger, audio-hal, camera-provider etc...

pm-service kept spamming in dmesg with

IPC_RTR: msm_ipc_router_bind: pm-service Do not have permissions

so I had to disable it.

Also "ro.adb.secure=0" is not working now, so you need to authorize adb manually by putting adbkey.pub in /data/misc/adb/adb_keys

I'm also attached 2 logs, one captured right after adbd is spawned by 'adb wait-for-device' command, and the other after waiting some time.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] leonardobg7:
Guys, beginner doubt. If Treble allows you to "simply" upgrade Android without having to redo the "Vendor," then why is not it so easy to have Android P?

I'm not rushing anyone, it's just a question.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] onliner:
Treble is designed for "modern" devices, with OEM support and updated /vendor, but Kenzo ....
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ansebovi:
becoz we dont have official updated vendor which actually supports treble yet,.so devs trying hard to get this perfectly works on every treble rom i guess

its not for "modern" devices,its for every device which have treble supported vendor implementation i think
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] satyam0236:
Noob Friendly guide About Treble

1) Flash TWRP Treble.

=>If you care about your cust, backup "vendor image" for when you're done and want to flash MemeUI (I did it).

2) Wipe VENDOR, System, Data, Cache & Dalvik.

3) Flash Vendor + Kernel.

4) Flash a GSI from XDA.

5) Reboot to system.

6) Once you get the GSI to boot, reboot to recovery again.

7) Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik again.

8) Flash GApps of your choice (I recommend OpenGApps Nano).

9) Flash Magisk 16.7.

10) Reboot to system.

Anyone using pixel experience gsi.... please tell me the bugs.....or tell me best Oreo rom for our redmi note 3
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
LOS15.1 by LokManSiu and RessurectionRemix 6.1.0 by alex4yust are the best in my opinion. I also tried HalogenOS and thought it was great, but afaik it's not updated anymore. Just to be clear, these are not Treble-enabled roms. If you want stability choose any of these kind of roms, treble isn't even near being stable enough for a daily driver on kenzo and like alex said, his priority was to boot it.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] irfankamal:
And what if I say choose between lineage and resurrection my priority is not customization I want stability and performance with good enough battery life with gcam working
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kazekiri:
Disagree. If you don't need VoLTE and safetynet, then it works fine now. I've been using the unofficial AEX GSI as my daily driver since last Friday, and I am very happy with it. I'm looking forward to devs making treble on kenzo even more stable in the future, but this is already good enough for me in the meantime. Really great work by Alex and everyone involved.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Samvortex:
Are you sure it is stable enough?i m thinking it install it too but only if its just stable as nos or rr!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
LineageOS, it has just enough customisation. But it hasn't been updated in a while. I'm pretty sure though, that LokManSiu will soon make it official. In my opinion RR has too many customisations.

---------- Post added at 07:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 AM ----------

Does it get updated regurarly, like weeklies and such?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] wilkyang2781:

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
But does it get updated or is there just one update like in the not treble one?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] wilkyang2781:
This must ask the dev bro, cos gsi im download is 25 jul one, and in the androidfilehost only 2 file in that folder, a only and ab one of havoc
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kazekiri:
Looks like the dev only leaves the latest version up. But it must have been updated at least once. The upload date of the current version is 25 July, but the XDA thread was started on 20th July. Anyway, at this point it is too early to say for sure how often the dev will choose to update it.

Love this sig. LOL

Does anyone know how to fix this error? What I did - installed Treble TWRP, wiped everything except SD and OTG. Then tried installed both Lineage and RR from op. Also tried to install carlosvendor-20180728-kenzo.zip and in all ROMs I see this error on boot.

Error message:

A vendor image mismatch has been detected. Typically

this means your vendor image is out of date. Please

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] harshwardhanmehrotra:
Is there a benefit of using a gsi rom ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] chrome6boy:
It's the future.

All devices being released now are Treble compatible therefore will use GSI roms.

There are initial problems for the vendors to have a correct partition to match the system partition. This will get better in future devices.

I assume going forward, devs like Los, RR, Pixel experience will maintain their GSI as their primary product of interest as it will be used in the most devices.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kazekiri:
In addition to what chrome6boy said, there are also some GSI's available of roms which do not have currently maintained versions for kenzo. Being able to flash GSI's increases the number of rom choices available to us on our device. :)

Nice! After flashing this, I was actually able to pass safetynet! (Magisk 16.7, AEX Unofficial GSI by AryanPatidar)

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] kazekiri:
Make sure your phone is completely trebalized and that you have the vendor partition mounted. Go to "mount" in TWRP and mount vendor manually if it isn't mounted.

EDIT: I think also this patch may require that Magisk is already installed.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] KuatSidik:

but, to answer your questions, only Oreo GSI ROM are working for now, and no, no one has booted P DP5 GSI on Kenzo/Kate.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Md Shahab:

partition to small
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] alex.kirs:
One very weird issue I have with all GSI images I tried (from op post or I also tried lineage GSI and Pixel Experience GSI), so I followed this guide:

1. BL unlocked (of course)

2. TWRP Treble (anyone)

3. a treble ROM (not sure the compatible ones, Cardinal Treble works here) and of course, Pixel Experience gsi.img

4. Installing: WIPE EVERYTHING! (except SD and OTG)

5. Install ROM treble (only!) as a normal ROM

6. After successfully installing, go to wipe and another wipe, but SYSTEM ONLY, READ THIS!

7. After wipe ONLY SYSTEM, install PE GSI as "System Image", only also.

And after #7, system boots to new system, but then asks for password, claiming some partition is encrypted. (it is not, I don't have any encryption or fingerprint protection or anything like that).

The most weird part is that password window ACCEPTS ANY password I enter. And after that it tells "Password was correct, but was unable to de-encrypt partition, try to reset you phone to factory default" ... or something like that. And factory reset leads to same result - system boots, asks for password, asks to reset.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Black_Stark:
I think u did wipe data. U need to do format data.

There is option called format data in twrp.

It will erase internal sd too. Also it will decrypt the data and internal sd.

So first format data

Then wipe data

Flash rom, gapps

Reboot
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Themes, Apps, and Mods] harshalsingh1990:
I faced the same error when i installed kernel+vendor first and gsi second... Wipe everything... Format data... Install gsi and then the kernel+vendor zip... It'll boot just saying vendor partition mismatch... Tap ok and then voila...
