In this Guide i will explain you how you can flash GSI rom in infinix hot 11s

Warning - this can brick your device if not done properly use this guide only if you know how to recover to stock rom using spflash tool

NOTE- I am assuming you have unlocked the bootloader and enabled usb debugging if you haven't done that you can learn to do that from the other guide i made

First you need to download a working gsi for this device you can download the ones we have tested below

Now download and install platform tools using this Tutorial you can skip this if you have already done this

You need to get the vbmeta.img and vbmeta_system.img from stock firmware which you can download and extract using 7zip and then take the both the files from it or ask in our {Mod edit: Reference to Telegram removed! Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}

After downloading gsi image make sure to extract it to .img format using 7-zip as

I advice you to move all required files for flashing into platform tool folders in root directory to make it easier or atleast move it to same folder

Product.gsi has been attached (it's same for both NFC and non NFC version)

adb reboot bootloader

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

If you are stuck at "waiting for devices" output at this step you will have to follow this video

fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img

fastboot reboot fastboot (you should enter fastbootd after this command make sure before continuing)

fastboot flash product product_gsi.img

fastboot flash system <gsiname>.img

IF YOU ARE GETTING UNABLE TO RESIZE PARTITION ERROR MAKE SURE TO FLASH YOU FLASHED Product_gsi.img

Now select recovery from volume down button and power button >> go to wipe data and factory reset now reboot to system

~~End of guide!~~

Edit - I was able to fix all the audio and performance issues by making a magisk module for it download Here (if you don't know how to root this device I have made a guide on that too)

Low call volume problem is also fixed by the module

Edit 2 - stock camera has been ported to gsi and the 50mp camera works now join telegram for more information

Edit 3 - newer versions of gcam bsg supports 50 mp camera

Edit 4 - Android 13 GSI works good and the Bluetooth issues are fixed in latest patches (you can daily drive it)
