Follow GSI ROM flashing guide -->

Flash color os (if you aren't using cos already) (stock vendor is required that's why )

Flash twrp

Wipe data , cache , dalvik , system

Flash system.img (gsi )

Flash lineage os boot img

Flash lineage os vbmeta.img (if you didn't already flashed it, no need to flash this after changing rom everytime)

Note:

If it boots back to recovery after rebooting then Format data and reboot (internal will be erased)

if it fails to boot into system factory reset it in twrp ;) that should work ^_^

Good Things :

Volte works

Safetynet passed without any modules

Bugs :

Same bugs as other gsi (Missing fingerprint, face unlock, bt audio calls and few more ? ?*♂️ )

The camera doesn't work in most apps

MTP works but shows internal-only

some third-party apps unable to detect and use sd card (MX player and few more)

No notch support ( So some test on the status bar is getting hidden in borders ;p )

Bugs with workaround :

Switch off or restart it will not work, just shows a blank screen

(Hold Power off + volume down + volume up for few seconds to power off )

Can't log into google play directly

Workaround :

Need to install play services apk inorder to log into Google account

Download from here

To get Camera Working

you can flash Oxy-ify Module from magisk it'll add oxygen os camera app so you can take pics with it. Gcams should work as well.

Mx player like apps unable to read/use sd card

Workaround: flash sdcard enabler magisk module

Go to mx player >> settings >> list >> folder >> add

/Mnt/media_rw/sdcard_id

Not a bug but screen resolution is different than our device but you can change that (this will be helpful in all gsi )

1) download termux app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux

2) run commands

su
wm size 1080x2340

3) reboot device

How to Root Any GSI ?
