Tips for uneventful installation.

Install ROM (see detail instructions below)

When device boot first time, stright way open magisk and check everything is fine. In case it ask to complete additional setup, let it do (Internet must be on), If you have followed instruction carefully, it won't)

We recommend to turn off superuser notification (Magisk - settings - superuser notification - set to 'none' OR at least disable for ROM Tool & Tweaks pro) this will make running ROM tool and mods faster.

Open ROM Tool - grant permission - Apply essential fix.

After applying Essential fix - Reboot device once. Now you can finish rest of setup of your device as per your liking.

In case ROM tool doesn't open even after > 3 min of device boot then Long press ROM Tool icon - Force start - Open ROM Tool and apply essential fix - reboot device

Installation Guide

- (Read carefully)

- Backup data including Int storage (Mostly wiping It storage will not require but in case needed) and place to PC/Ext Storage

- If you are on stock Pie (Android 9.0) ROM then first update to Stock Q ROM

- If you are on stock Q ROM then first Install TWRP and root (see Gen thread for rooting guide)

I have tested only on official TWRP

- If you are on custom Pie based ROM, We recommend to first flash stock Q ROM and flash TWRP - Format Data (Full wipe that requires to type 'yes' to confirm)

- If you are already on custom ROM Q (Provided you have previously flashed Stock Q ROM and after that never flash stock Pie again) with TWRP, make sure you are having same TWRP as said above

- Download N960_F_DS_DrKetan_custom_ROM_Q0*.zip and MD5 file, Copy ROM zip to Ext SD card/OTG. Use Root Explorer or similar and from device itself check MD5 of ROM and confirm it matches with mention on MD5 file

- Reboot to TWRP and select to wipe data (simple factory reset) should be fine

- Flash ROM zip and must select ROM,and Vendor, all other option from aroma are optional.

- Let it to finish, it may take about 8-10 minutes to finish

- Reboot to download mode & Flash Android Q Bootloader and modem

- Reboot to system

- Let it to reboot and it should boot normally now. In case not then I recommend to Format device (One which required to type 'yes') and then again flash ROM as said above. No need to re flash bootloader again.
