No need to DM verify , only decrypt data needed

[MENTION=3447449]ameshiya[/MENTION]

According to my modest experience this kernel ( labyrinth v2.0 - not v2.2 because it has some issues with twrp -) work as it should on havoc 3.0 and other Q GSIs :

https://xdaforums.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=30530

Only if you're on emui 8 of September 2018 or later you need Catuva's magisk mudule to patch modem from here :

https://xdaforums.com/p10-lite/development/kernel-p10-lite-catuva21-t3798915

Note : Q gsi work as it should with stock kernel except for offline charging .

========

Some ppl coming from Pie with ( magisked ramdisk ) , Q won't boot except if you flash magisk.phh

It's better to decrypt data ( link in previous post )

- Downlod latest Havoc from here , extract it and put it into internal memory or SD

https://sourceforge.net/projects/expressluke-gsis/files/HavocOS/Ten/ARM64/A/

- Go to twrp ( linked in OP post )

- Wipe system data cache

- flash havoc img in system image partition

- flash magisk ( linked in OP post )

- Reboot

If all gone fine you can flash gapps later ( resize syatem from twrp's advanced wipe menu needed )

To correct some about phone infos and maybe battery usage flash the attached patch ( sometimes applying the patch requires resize system from twrp )

To fix NFC use this patch

https://xdaforums.com/p10-lite/how-to/gsis-manual-fixes-hi6250-devices-t3936745/page3

And finally I found a new simple fix for blur ( noticed on most Pie/Q ROMs on hi6250 ) , only the ROM must have live display feature : go to settings -> display -> live display -> color calibration & set blue to 99℅ ( you can set red or green instead ) .

Thanks for your kindness and patience.

I will give it a try as soon as possible.

finally i have tested this Rom its super smooth, everything working perfectly, there is only one problem i noticed is Weak Network there is only one Signal have someone noticed this or any for fix for getting strong network signals ?
[Huawei P10 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] anvetoti:
Finally i got Havoc 2.9 in my -WAS-LX1A C432 B390 following (sorry) this method: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ykKiJVKxhI&feature=youtu.be

for those who still have booting loop problems my steps were:

1) stock firmware and stock recovery

2) fastboot-> flash system img

3) stock recovery -> factory reset

4) reboot to system

5) reboot in fastboot -> flash TWRP (Pretorian)

6) boot in TWRP -> flash Magisk (20.1 its OK)

7) reboot to system and check Magisk with Magisk Manager

8) reboot in twrp

- flash Gapps (Pico its OK)

- wipe -> advanced wipe and clear ccash and data to!!!!!

9) reboot to system and setup the system

10) reboot in twrp and flash the various fix

Bugs (for me)

- NFC (various fix files seems doesn't work)

- Fast draining battery (settings problem?)

- Battery Saver option seems don't work properly (grayed in menu settings)

- signal strenght seems don't work properly, maybe only icon problem

- some bluetooth problems pairing (Huawei Health app crash during the pairing process with smartband 3 pro huawei - nothing to do)

I will try Android Q with the same method

I was struggling to get anything to boot until I did the "format data" in twrp. That fixed the bootloop and I was able to boot normally. Also I had to revert back to official firmware before I did anything (dload method).

Hi,does anyone tried nfc fix on havoc 3.1? I have tried ,but NFC doesn't appear in setting nor on qs title
[Huawei P10 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ham1do:
It works 100% , just delete with any root explorer system/app/NfcNci/ folder then go to twrp and flash NFC fix.

PS : sometimes it requires resize system via twrp's advanced wipe menu before applying any fix (check there : remaining system size should be > 16mb ).

Could you maybe post again a short up-to-date complete guide, which includes all steps with data decryption and magisk module patch?

Because I'm a bit confused by the order in which I am supposed to flash the stuff.

[Huawei P10 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] luimu:
I don't have write permissions on external sd card. Files get created as 0 bytes on the sd card and mixplorer says failed everytime. With root acces I can create files fine from terminal. I can move and put files on to the sd card fine with twrp. I have tested 2 sd cards so the card can't be the reason. I have formatted the card from the settings. I have formatted it from twrp.

Calling is very inconsistent. Most of the time it says call ended instantly but the call actually goes trough and if the receiver picks up all the calls after that will work normally. But if the receiver doesn't pick up then all the calls after the first will end just like the first one until picked up. Changing to 2g or 3g seems to fix it temporarily but that doesn't work all the time either.

Screen recording crashes the whole system ui or throws into lock screen multiple times but never actually records anything.

No rom boots

I have a P10 lite (was-L01A) with 4gb ram and single sim and I've been trying to flash a custom rom for two weeks. Starting point is emui 8, stock rom android 8 (c432). I have unlocked the bootloader and tried to flash different roms with Twrp from Pretoriano80 and darkjoker360 (Havoc 3.1, AOSP 10, LineageOS 15.1). But everything always ended in a bootloop.

Are there somehow different roms for single or dual sim?

Or could it be that I have to decrypt /data?

If so, could someone describe how to do that and which files I need?

Thanks in advance:good:

[Huawei P10 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] anvetoti:
1)start with stock rom android and stock recovery

2) flash system.img (in OP) via fastboot

3) boot in to stock recovery and do factory reset...if ends with error don't worry.

4)back fastboot and flash pretoriano TWRP (in OP)

5)boot in to TWRP and wipe ccache and format data!!

6) reboot to system...wait some minutes

7) if you got bootloop repeat 5)

Worked for me and run absolutely well without bugs

I think the bootloop problem is due to data encryption, so data format is the only solution
[Huawei P10 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] codebræker:
Thanks for your suggestion, but I think I've already tried every possible solution including this.

On my huawei P10 lite i flash havooc 3.0 gsi rom and everything was ok.

Now I wanted to try the havooc 3.2 gsi rom, and system reboots every time after 10 minutes.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

- wipe system data cache

- Fash havoc 3.2 via fastboot

- reboot to twrp and

- flash magix

- reboot to twrp

- flash Gapps

- reboot to system

I also tried with resize partition or flashing rom imige via twrp

- Flash havoc 3.2 imige in sistem imige partition or Havoc 3.1

- reboot to twrp and

- resize system partition

- reboot to twrp and

- flash magisk-phh

- reboot to twrp and

- flash selinux_fix_q-gsi

- reboot to twrp and

- flash open gapps-arm64-10.0-pico

- reboot to system

Please correct me if I'm doing something wrong

Tnx
[Huawei P10 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Ham1do:
No need to reboot to twrp each time.

Comming from working q gsi ..

- Wipe system, data, cache, dalvik/art cache

- Flash Havoc 3.2

- Resize system ( if u can't , mount system ) , be sure that system free size will increase ( > 64mb after resizing ) - that's the main thing

- Flash the patch ( selinux_fix_q-gsi-a )

- Flash magisk.phh

- Reboot

Ps: all my experiences with data decypted and twrp-0.5-test in op post.

EDIT:

*NEW SELINUX PATCH attached

- offline charging fixed

- fingerprint fixed

- long screenshot fixed ( if gsi including it )

Tested on stock kernel.
[Huawei P10 Lite ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] dandy3:
Wit erecovery I set the phone to its original state.

- Flash magisk.phh

i would present a little guide how to flash properly Q GSIs on Hi6250-emui8:

from emui8

- install twrp 0.5 test (in OP post)

- decrypt data by flashing fstab.hi6250b.zip ( look in previous posts or in huawei 7x section )

- format data ( tape yes ) and reboot to emui8 to check if data is decrypted in settings/security

- Go to twrp and

- wipe data cache system

- flash gsi arm64-a in system image partition

- reboot

Before rebooting if you want install gapps or AIO patch

- unmount , mount system

- resize system from advanced wipe menu

- ( magisk-phh optional )

Reboot

Ps: If you want keep data encrypted, after installing gsi you need to reflash stock recovery and wipe data from there

No, it isn't.

What it means is, boot into TWRP, select the "Wipe" option in TWRP, then select "advanced wipes", then you will see a list of partitions(system, data, cache, dalvik cache, internal storage, etc..). Select the system partition and any other partitions that need to be wiped, then swipe the slider at the bottom of the screen.
