reference guide from phhusson, need unlocked bootloader

0. Get an up-to-date fastboot on your computer (fastboot --version should give version >= 29)

1. Get vbmeta.img from https://dl.google.com/developers/android/qt/images/gsi/vbmeta.img

(or from the stock fastboot pack, also look at vbmeta_system.img)

2. Get A/B GSI (I'm guessing you need ARM64-bvZ or bgZ), don't forget to uncompress it

3. From running Android do

adb reboot bootloader

4. fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img

(you can skip this step if vbmeta flashed before)

5. fastboot reboot fastboot (note: this is necessary for fastbootd!)

6. fastboot flash system system-xxxx.img

6bis. If fastboot tells you there isn't enough place, do

fastboot delete-logical-partition product

fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a

fastboot delete-logical-partition product_b

(and run the fastboot flash command again)

7. On your phone, the screen should have a button "go back to recovery", select it, then select "factory reset / wipe data"

8. Reboot and enjoy

Thanks so much. Worked perfectly.
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] Brendanus:
Likewise. Working very smoothly on Blackview BV9600E. Best one yet. Many thanks. :)
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] juandi34:
Have you try crDRom11 on your BV9600E ???

It is from eremitein too ...

I think it can be flashed over this LiR to try it and not loose data. :confused:
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] Brendanus:
I may try it sometime, but if Lir is working flawlessly so far, with no glitches, how would crDRom11 be better?

The only feature lacking in these GSIs (which is not a big problem) is the face-unlock feature, but the other advantages far outweigh this.

In the case of the BV9600E for example (which was released on Android 9), the stock rom seems to have persistent problems with logging in to and syncing my Microsoft work account. These problems are solved by this GSI and it syncs very smoothly.
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] zyhk:
In my usage,

Lir = Caos + SBC HD​

@Heeni

please can you tell me which image (a-only or a/b or vndklite or something) do you have used?

I tried several images but my x505f was not able to pass the lenovo log (endless bootloop).

How was your flashing procedure?

I failed with:

- reboot to stock recovery and do a factory reset

- then reboot to bootloader and "fastboot flash system <image>" and "fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" (grabbed vbmeta.img from stock rom image)
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] Heeni:
I use arm64-bvZ, which is an ab version.

It was a while ago now, so I don't entirely remember how I did it, but I used the instructions in https://xdaforums.com/t/recovery-tb-x505f-unofficial-twrp-3-5-x-for-lenovo-tab-m10-hd.4211221/ That would probably be the best place to post if you're still having problems.

Where possible, I prefer to load software from the sd card. I don't entirely trust cables.

Hello

i installed the gsi and it was good. only problem is that camera app crashes. i installed open camera app but it only works with front camera. whenever i try to switch to back camera it says camera is used by another app but then there is no app using the camera. i have removed all camera permissions and rebooted but still same problem.

how can i fix this pls.
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] JuanTamqd21:
maybe vendor issues

try to use custom made one
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] nybol:
Do you mean custom rom ? I am using a Blu G70 phone but can't find any custom rom for it
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] eremitein:
try -lite build too

and if used external gapps, try clean flash and Opengapps
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] JuanTamqd21:
not custom rom

custom vendor

but if you have no custom rom, I think you also have no custome vendor
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] nybol:
@eremitein

I also tried the lite build of your caos gsi but still had the same camera issue.

I didn't use external gapps, i used the variant that comes with gapps because I couldn't find twrp for my phone.

Is there a way I can install gapps without twrp ? Or do you know how I can make twrp for my own device ? I use a Blu G70 and I'm on stock rom.

I like your gsi because they boot easily and run smooth on my device, only the camera issue
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] eremitein:
no, i don't know how to install gapps without custom recovery, try to search info in the web

about camera, are you have same issue with AOSP GSI by phhusson? first try it, if there is a problem too, then send bug report to phhusson and maybe he could help
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] nybol:
Ok.

eremitein ...​

In this ROM (because I am waiting for crDroid update), using positioning on car traveling, in about minute (60 seconds), the speed control goes off, and on.

I dont know why, but the matter is that on speed, I see that I am driving at 120Km/h and in the frecuency I told you before, speed goes down and in a few seconds returns to 120Km/h ....

So: I think that the speed control goes off or positioning is reseting, or I dont know what´s happened ... o_O

Thanks @eremitein, this has transformed my A7 T500 tab.. there's a small token of appreciation on the way for your work.

One question, is there any way to unencrypt? I've tried the usual disabler zips with no joy.

Edit: how can donations be sent?
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] Tirofog:
I installed LiR after a TWRP data format and fastboot system erase, having been on PE with magisk. I don't want to run magisk now, but the stub keeps showing in the app drawer and even after uninstalling it's back after a reboot, and the superuser app doesn't show after toggling. I've deleted everything magisk from storage and flashed the uninstaller but no luck..
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] eremitein:
magisk survives in ramdisk, so you need restore clean boot.img or recovery.img (depends on device)
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] eremitein:
well, you need specific method for your device. mainly decryption is in modifying fstab line for mounting /data, for my device it's /vendor/etc/fstab.qcom and changes is "encryptable=footer"

thanks, i have still no global donations link (only Yandex.Money, if you know it)

[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] MuddyDog:
hi, in-call audio works perfectly with aospa v313.

lack of in-call audio on the PH-1, remains an open issue for all of phhusson's v400 builds. He posted that he has "spent already 10hrs+ on it"... hopefully, it will get fixed eventually. (This also affects some older Pixel phones, and a few others.)
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] eremitein:
very interesting what happened after v313 - is it google code changes or phhtreble patches
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] eremitein:
hey, one more question - you got vndklite/lite builds or normal?
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] MuddyDog:
i don't know whether the problem is caused by google code changes or phhtreble patches; the last time i did any programming it was in LISP and SCHEME.

I have used both normal and vndklite v313 builds, and both variants work equally well.

I have not booted a lite build of either your v314 or v315.

[General Questions and Answers] Anon_404:
Hello. What filesystem do you format your SD cards in for using with Android? I suspect most keep the factory format - exFAT or FAT32, which is a garbage filesystem, but can be read by Windows without extra trouble.

When I was preparing a new card to put in a new phone the other day, I faced that choice, and being a Linux user, decided on ext4, which has journaling, is tried and tested, and a default for most Linux systems. I also threw in a couple of extra partitions, one of them with FAT32, just in case some app had trouble saving to ext4.

Everything seamed to work well, no complains from Android. One app could not save to the ext4 partition, but that was expected, it had no trouble saving to the FAT32 one. However I later noticed problems with the card. It took me a bit to map out the problematic behavior, but here it is:

- Can read/write files in all dirs on the FAT32 partition

- Can read/write files

in the root dir

of the ext4 partition

- Can't write files

on any sub-directory

of the ext4 partition, regardless if the dir was created in the computer or by the phone's file explorer.

- Reading from sub-dir seams weird. Video files written when the SD was on the computer don't open, but I was able to read a file created by TWRP.

- TWRP can read and write to it's default directories inside the ext4 partition (which are sub-directories).

Just in case, I tried multiple file explorer apps. This kinda suggest some user read/write permission issues, however I can't find anyone reporting anything similar anywhere on the web.

Any ideas?

Anyone using ext4?

Could the multi-partitioning of the SD card be an issue somehow?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] mrhamed:
I have same issue with my External H.D.D and my NSTV box, I have to format it as ext4 (because many issue about fragmentation)

Such as TitaniumBackup can't create backup on it! I tried multiple file explorer apps but toes can't write file/folder on it :( I set it 777 but not success

temporally solution is adb command or Primitive FTPd as root (not stable)
[General Questions and Answers] Hendrix7:
Usually it should not make a difference. To software without block-level access, files should look the same on all file systems supported by the operating system. The file system driver interacts with the file system on the behalf of the software.

Otherwise, software developers would have to add support for many file systems to every app.

So they are listed but can not be opened?

Perhaps they have a different codec format like H.265?

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] HyperChick:
What screen protector are you using? Have you turned up sensitivity on screen? I use "CellHelmet" screen protector. It's a liquid application. It works flawlessly. I never have issue with fingerprint. Never have scratches.

I'll tell you how well it works. I cover my entire phone with this stuff. I get the one that will pay up to $300 of your deductible if it fails. I had a Note 8 at the time. I was working on my b/f truck at night pissed off because he broke his shift cable AGAIN. Like a dumb ass, I'm all pissed under his truck with my phone, working, scramble out from underneath, jump up in the truck, start it, throw it in reverse, forward, reverse, I do that a couple more times in my driveway. He's standing there, bends over and picks my phone up off the drive way and holds it up and waves it to me in the headlights. Of course I just get even madder at that point. I jump out of his truck and yup I drove over my phone 1/2 dozen times crushing it to death. But the damn thing still turned on. Not a single piece of glass splintered off. I called Verizon for a screen replacement. When the tech showed up, the guy looked at me like I was nuts. I never took my Otterbox off. He showed me that the back of the phone was smashed also and was dented in. He said that the battery was probably "bleeding out" and there was no way he was opening that phone. That I just needed to go buy a new one.

Now, how's THAT for a screen protector? 🤣 Ever since then, I put that stuff on every single device. The guys at Best Buy were dumb founded when they saw it. 🤣

I have a problem installing Magiks on Motorola G7 Power.

I unlocked bootloader and installed TWRP

Then i flashed Magik and DisablebDM Verity.

My phone was rooted, Installed apps and modules. I renamed Magisk Manager to hide it.

Everything was fine. But then one od apps was still able to see that my bootloader was unlocked so i restored Magisk Manager and renamed it again and i wanted to reboot my device, but it fot stuck in a bootloop so i turned on TWRP to flash Magisk again but all phone files were encrypted. I wiped dataand the files seemed fine. But now if I flash Magisk the phone is stuck in a bootloop and the only thing that is fixing it is using TWRP bootloop fix grom advanced options but the device boots up root checker data it's not rooted properly.
