Hello, I've seen a lot of community members struggling to install custom ROMs, GApps, Magisk or DolbyAtmos, so I've created a guide. So did I, this took me around 15 tries without bootlooping or breaking my OS. Yes, I was really new at this. Some guides had broken English that I couldn't understand, others were too complicated.
However, now I am presenting you a fully working, detailed (and easy) guide. Hopefully, it'll help at least someone to avoid potential mistakes when flashing or using root. Good luck!
(If you don't install TWRP, the GApps version will mismatch!)
(Probably not anymore, needs a confirmation.)

I was writing these steps while actually installing the ROM, so it should work for sure.
I might add guides for installation of other ROMs too.
If you have any issues or questions, feel free to reply to this post.
A newbie tip: If you can't see your internal storage, swipe down the notification bar and change USB Charging to Transfer Files.
Coming from stock Android 8.0? Coming from Android Nougat, 7.1.2? Do you need to reflash your TWRP?
Take a look

Very nice guide. Appreciate it...
I want to ask something.. I am not a LOS fan. I won't flash too. Asking this question for some of my whatsapp friends... My question is...
They have already permanent TWRP installed. So do they need to install twrp installer again? With that A/B slot trick?

I'm not a developer but I'll try to answer your question as well as I can. By logical thinking and my personal experience, I've came to this conclusion: (Don't take me by word, I might not be totally right!)
If you are coming from stock, Android 8.0, you shouldn't need to flash TWRP again.
If you are coming from Nougat, 7.1.2, you'll need to reflash TWRP again.
If you are coming from other custom ROMs, you shouldn't need to flash TWRP again.
With that said,
I've always reflashed my TWRP with the latest one provided for the ROM I was installing at the moment, just in case.
About that A/B trick, when I was flashing the first LineageOS version, I needed to use the A/B partition trick.
However, in the latest one released on 13/03, I needn't. (I didn't try the version released on 8th March.)
wiping internal storage is necessary?

That depends. First, check if is your internal storage encrypted. If it is, you'll need to wipe it.
There might be workarounds on the forum, but I, personally, haven't tried those, yet.
Thanks for the guide

Not sure if permissive script is needed for dolby atmos, dolby works well on my MiA1 without this script because this rom is already with permissive sellinux... Thank you for your help, it will sure be helpfull. You should try Dual Speaker mod if you haven't got it on your phone.
Is it alright to flash LOS15.1 from stock Nougat or is it a prerequisite to upgrade to stock Oreo before flashing LOS15.1?
Thanks.

The magisk's permissive script isn't needed, since LOS 15.1 is already in the permissive state. However, if you'd accidentally/purposely change your SELinux status, the DolbyAtmos would break and you'd possibly face audio issues.

There's no need to upgrade to Android 8.0 Oreo first, you delete all files in /system anyway. You can directly flash to 8.1. Don't forget to reflash your TWRP!
I m on LOS 13-03-18 how to install Dolby Atmos separately. Can u please guide me

Follow the steps in the DOLBY ATMOS section. Copy required files to your device and start from step 4.
Download the Dolby Atmos and magisk's permissive script here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1NL_Sq2q05L6RyZQSGsPam3HrGoEoOesY
Be carefull with dualspeaker mod if you use it with dolby atmos.
You must change the volume value manually to 80 maxi (default is 84) in the file...
Read carefully thze original post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a1/themes/mod-xiaomi-mi-a1-soundmod-dualspeaker-t3741675
You should mention it in order to prevent problems...

GUIDE FOR TWRP install & ROOT
Xiaomi Redmi Pro {ALL VERSIONS} TWRP download and Redmi Pro root
This guide will help you install TWRP and root Redmi Pro, the first step is to install TWRP custom recovery on the Redmi Pro. The process contains quite a few steps, but most of them take just a few seconds.
If it looks daunting, don’t worry, take each step one by one and you’ll come through with TWRP and a rooted Redmi Pro within just a few minutes.
Prerequisites and note
You must have an unlocked bootloader to follow this guide; flashing through fastboot requires an unlocked bootloader. If your Redmi Pro bootloader isn’t unlocked yet, go to the official Xiaomi unlock page to begin the process.
You need to backup anything you don’t want lost to your PC or a TF SD card; for TWRP to work, you may need to factory reset. You will lose all user data. Backup all important data BEFORE you flash the TWRP.{only if you choose twrp 3.0.20}
1. WHATS INCLUDED
PASSWORD IS"kristi6.9"
a.Auto installer for adb commands, adb drivers and fastboot commands– These are the tools that will allow your PC to communicate with your mobile.
View attachment adb-setup-1.4.2.zip
b.Redmi Pro TWRP custom recovery used for rooting and flashing custom ROMs onto Redmi Pro.-links below
c.Redmi Pro root SuperSU.zip– The SuperSU.zip used for rooting Redmi Pro through TWRP recovery(extract it to get supersu binary +supersuapk+supersu premium)link below
2. Install the adb drivers and fastboot commands
Extract the above download.
Run “adb-setup.exe”.
Hit “Y” to all 3 questions.
The Google adb driver installer will then popup. Go ahead and allow and install.
3. Prepare your Xiaomi Redmi Pro
Settings >> About phone >> Tap “MIUI Version” seven times.
Hit the back button. You should then be at the main settings menu.
Go to “Additional settings” >> “Developer options” >> “USB Debugging”.
A warning will pop up. Go ahead and allow.
Plug your phone to PC via USB cable.
You should then see a pop up request on your Redmi Pro to give your PC USB debugging permissions. Go ahead and allow.
4. Copy the TWRP and open the command window
Open Windows Explorer and go to “c:/adb”.
Copy “twrp.img” to “c:/adb”.
IN A BLANK SPACE (not on a filename etc…), hold SHIFT while RIGHT-CLICK
Select “Open command window here”. You should then see a small black window open.
5. Boot into bootloader and fastboot flash the TWRP
In the black command window type “adb reboot bootloader”. Hit Enter. Wait about 10 seconds and you should then see your Redmi Pro says “Fastboot” along with the Xiaomi Mascot.
In the black command window type “fastboot flash recovery twrp.img”. Hit Enter.
You should then see that the file has flashed successfully (OKAY). It all takes just a second. (see pic and video)
6. Boot into TWRP
In the black command window, type “fastboot reboot”. Do not hit Enter yet.
Hold Volume Up on the Xiaomi Redmi Pro while hitting Enter on your PC.
Continue holding Volume Up for about 30 seconds until you see TWRP has booted.
BAM! You’re now booted into TWRP
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Method 2: If you have twrp already installed
1.Put twrp.img in the phone storage

-No more need to format data
-It starts directly in english language
this twrp does not suits for 4/128 version.
on 128g, twrp can not recognize data and storage partitions so it can not make a full wipe to these partitions. So after installing xiaomi.eu rom from any official rom, a lot of programs crashes and gives error. no possiblity to use phone.
thanks for information

- Dual-Window-Mode can be started from 583 Apps - but added in the second window to the started App in the first window can only 28 Apps - experimental feature...
- some nice Themes (Porsche Design from Mate 9, BlackPyramid Theme from blackbell....) by the way, Online-Themes are working, but you have to register a Huawei ID
- a lot of more
Themes:
Some Useres had problems to activate Themes after installing the Rom. This problem occurs normally not and it is not an issue of the Rom.
Thats why I recommend following:
Before flashing the new Rom make a Backup of your Themes.hwt(s) from the folder HWThemes on internal memory and store this in another folder on your external SD. After delete the HWThemes folder on internal memory (it will created automatically again)
If you make a Nandroid Backup before wiping previous system and flashing the new Rom, reboot your TWRP within the main menu of TWRP "Restart" ...restart TWRP. After you can make a wipe and flashing the Rom.
TWRP (everyone for Marshmallow p9, my linked same as the one from paulobrien) has sometimes problems with mount and unmount Partitions.
The result is (not copied) missing files, like Themes. Themes will be installed in NewWorld 7 not in /system/themes (there are just the icons - for saving place in system Rom) but in /data/hw_init/system/themes. If you have already such a problem with Themes, just flash the ThemesFIX.zip with TWRP (without making anything before and no Wipe of Dalvik and Cache after) - this solve the issue. As I said, it occurs just sometimes.
General Requirements:
1) Marshmallow-Bootloader - if you are on Lollipop or Nougat the Rom cannot be flashed!
2) Bootloader unlocked http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/hwdownload/download
3) TWRP P9 for Android 6: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767122229
Note: TWRP has sometimes after an Nandroid Backup problems to unmount data or system. If you do Nandroid Backkup - please restart after TWRP from the main menu (Reboot Recovery) before wiping and flashing new Rom!
4) If you come from NewWorld 4.1 - or from nanoROM MallowPOP - be sure making the steps from the Installation instructions, otherwise Fingerprint-Scanner would not work!

12) Restart needs between 5 and 10 minutes. Wipe of Dalvik and Cache after flashing the Rom is not necessary, because you have done it before.
If you came from NewWorld 4.1 you must go back to the last official Huawei Firmware for your model. Without these steps your Fingerprint-Scanner would not work! Please check by yourself the Download of the last Full Marshmallow-Firmware for your model. Only for EVA-L09 Cust 432 (official - not Leak) you can Download it here: http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/11/download-huawei-p9-b182-marshmallow-update-europe/
Steps:

10) Install Minimal ADB and Fastboot and open it as Administrator: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
11) With: adb devices you will see if the connection is ready (Phone must be listed with Serialnumber - device)
12) With: adb reboot bootloader you start the Phone into Fastboot Mode
13) With: fastboot devices you check the connection (Phone must be listed with Serialnumber - fastboot)
14) With: fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (instead of xxx.... you must write your Unlock-Code from Huawei and enter) your Bootloader will be opened
15) Phone makes automatically Factory Reset!
16) Go to settings, activate Developer Options and in there USB Debugging and OEM Unlock and in Advanced Settings "Unknown Sources"
17) Connect your P9 with USB to your PC
18) With Minimal ADB and Fastboot (opened as Administrator) restart the Phone to Fastboot Mode
19) flash TWRP (Rename the downloaded one to TWRP - its called then TWRP.img) fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
20) Cut the USB connection between P9 and PC before restart to Recovery
21) With pressing Vol+ and Power Button restart your Phone until Huawei Logo appears, dont press Power then but keep holding Vol+ until TWRP is booting.
22) Setup language, screen timeout, time zone..... and allow Systemmodification
23) Go to Wipe - Advanced Wipe and wipe Dalvik, Cache, data and system
24) Restart Recovery with Restart Recovery in TWRP and flash the Rom! After flashing no wipe of Dalvik and Cache, because you have done it before.
If you came from Nano Rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/development/rom-ncs-rom-v1-1-08-16-2016-t3440269 - you must do following steps:
1) Download Blackballs NewWorld 4.1: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591000424954817
2) Backup your Apps with data
3) With TWRP make Advanced Wipe of Dalvik, Cache, data and system - after flash NewWorld 4.1
4) Do all 24 Steps written above!
Push-Notifications
The Push-Notifications are working for sms, mms, email....
But for WhatsApp, Viber, Skype and other Chat/Net-Call Apps the push-notifications work only perfectly if you convert them into a system app.
After flashing the Rom and the Setup you install your Apps and may restore some Apps with data from a previous backup.
Example: WhatsApp. Install it from the Playstore. Dont open it. Install Link2SD from the Playstore. Link2SD give you a list of all Apps - for example "WhatsApp" - just press long on it and you get a menue - use: convert to system-app. Then reboot your Phone. This time open WhatsApp and you have to authentication WhatsApp again. WhatsApp is searching for a Backup and offer you to restore it. You do this and now Push-Notification will work (dont forget to make a Google-Drive Backup of the Chat-History in Settings of WhatsApp before flashing the Rom)

Tutorial for return from NewWorld to Stock Marshmallow Firmware
If there is a reason to return from NewWorld to Marshmallow Original Stock Huawei Firmware - you can use this steps:
1) Backup what you need to backup! Use Huawei Backup and also Titanium Backup. NOTE: In the new Firmware or Rom dont restore system-apps or data from system-apps from previous system! Restore only USER-APPS. For Chat-Apps like WhatsApp, Viber, Skype use the built-in Backup function - but keep or backup the folder from those apps on internal memory (because you need them on the same place if you reinstall those apps)
Battery must have minimal 80% doing those steps....
If you have Xposed Framework installed - uninstall it (K-Settings /Xposed Settings /Install Xposed confirm - Reboot needs about 15min)
2) Open K-Settings /more settings /flash recovery - Flash official Recovery (grant Root-Permission) - this flashes Stock Recovery in half a second.
3) Download the Full Firmware (no OTA.zip) for your model, unzipp it on your PC (mostly you get update.app and meta.inf)
4) Create a folder on internal memory or external SD and name it: dload
5) Copy only update.app and meta.inf (if meta.inf is present) in this folder. After DISCONNECT USB from Phone!
6) Reboot to Stock Recovery - with Restart menu (also possible with pressing Vol+ and Power-Button at the same time as long until Recovery is displayed)
7) Wipe Cache with Stock Recovery (it uses another engine than TWRP) and do after a Factory Reset. There is no need to restart the phone to system now.
8) Press Vol- and Vol+ (in the middle) and Power-Button at the same time, until phone reboots and EMUI-Software-Installing is displayed
9) Let the EMUI-Installing finishing - it reboots automatically to system and starts the EMUI-Optimizing - wait until Language-Selection (new setup for you phone) is displayed.
Now you are back on Stock Firmware - Bootloader was automatically closed during Firmware-Installing
You can stay now on Marshmallow or update to Nougat if you like. But note: Once you are on Nougat - the Downgrade to Marshmallow is possible but not recommended (cause people reporting errors after Downgrade)
If you want to stay on Marshmallow and flash another Marshmallow based Custom Rom, continue from step 9 as follow:
9) In this case make just a short set up (You can skip the most) - but it is important to arrive the homescreen.
10) Go to Settings / About the phone and tap 7x (times) on Build-Number. It activates developer options.
11) Go to Developer options and activate USB DEBUGGING - and OEM-UNLOCK - after open Advanced settings /security and activate "Unknown Sources"
12) Connect Phone with USB to your PC (Accept the Fingerprint query with "always" on your Phone) Look, if Windows installed the right drivers so you have access to phone - if not install HiSuite http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html and make a connection with HiSuite. Allow installing HiSuite on Phone. If you have access now, close HiSuite (also in Background).
13) Copy the new Marshmallow based Rom to your Phone.
14) You need your Bootloader-Unlock-Code from Huawei!
15) With Minimal ADB and Fastboot unlock your Bootloader
16) Your phone will wiped with Factory Reset.
17) With Minimal ADB and Fastboot flash TWRP.
18) DISCONNECT USB Cable now from your Phone
19) Press Vol+ and Power-Button at the same Time until phone reboot (at the moment, Huawei Logo comes you can leave Power Button, but keep holding Vol+ until TWRP is displayed) - Reboot to TWRP takes a while
20) Set up TWRP (allow modification, set language, screen timeout, time zone...)
21) There is no need to wipe internal SD (but if you like to do this, do it at first and restart after TWRP - then you must setup TWRP again)
22) Go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe and wipe: Dalvik&Cache, Cache, data and system
23) Install the new Rom
24) Restore User-Apps, but dont restore any System-Apps (or data from it) Chat-Apps install from Playstore, and use the built-in restore function.
Huawei-Firmware-List:
Use only Marshmallow Full Firmware to retourn from NewWorld to Stock (mostly b182 or b181). Choose the right one for your model and cust! As far as I know all versions over 300 are based on Nougat (those you cannot use)
EVA-L09: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-l09
For EVA-L09 - I would recommend following Firmware: http://www.carbontesla.com/2016/11/download-huawei-p9-b182-marshmallow-update-europe/
EVA-L19: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-l19
EVA-L29: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-l29
EVA-TL00: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-tl00
EVA-ALxx: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=eva-AL (not sure, but maybe work on CL and DL variants)

Hello Thanks for informing me. Nobody told me in the German Thread, that's why I didn't know.
I always use the manual call recording and have not tested the automatic one. I make a test today in the evening and tell you!
Is there anyway to install this on a EVA-L09C34 (Optus/Australia) model.
It was hard for me to go to the german forum and regisster, post etc..... I am glad you moved here...... U`ll have more support, u`ll see...
Also I am happy that someone still works on this rom. It is the best and most complete rom for P9 .

This rom should work with all L09 variants, the C34 is pretty much the carrier model, so C34 means Optus and I think Vodaphone Australia also has a different carrier model. Ultimately, L09 all have the exactly same hardware.
Vielen Dank!
I downloaded this from android-hilfe.de last week (with the help of Google Translate!). An excellent rom and a worthy successor to @Blackball 's fine efforts. No obvious bugs or glitches that I can see, runs very smoothly.
Can't wait for your efforts with Nougat!

I have tested it on my phone right now and it works in NW 6.6 - and also NW7
You must open Dialer and there the menu symbol right below.
Open settings, in there enable record settings (see Screenshot)
If you call somebody or get calls it will automatically record the calls to external SD in the folder record
Test it again please. If it doesn't work for you, tell me.

Hello Thanks for the positive message!
I am working on the Nougat Version.
There are a few impairments at the moment:
TWRP for Nougat doesn't support data encryption yet...
The Google Security Level is very high.. Difficult to manipulate some processes..
Xposed Framework is not released yet for Nougat. Hopefully @rovo89 can get it work for Nougat...
KangVs Framework is working already on Nougat, K-Settings working - but modifications are only possible in system and boot, Root with SuperSU is possible - Manipulations on cust or vendor in the moment not.
The development is in progress

Hi Themes should work. I flashed even from b182 and Themes are working.
Same issue had one Person of the German Thread.
Please check the MD5 on Filehost (I post it later in OP)
Make wipe of Dalvik and Cache, restart TWRP and flash the Rom again please.
Edit :
Before you should go to the folder HWThemes on internal Memory. There is a hidden folder .cache - delete everything in it. Backup in the HWThemes folder the .hwt files you want to store. Store it on another place on external SD. Delete every .hwt in HWThemes on internal Memory.
I don't know, why this issue sometimes occurs, cause normally it does not.
Please inform me.

I have the same cust and was on b182, flashed the Rom and Themes working...
I don't think, its an issue of cust.
I believe it is a problem of TWRP.
If I make a Nandroid Backup and flashed after wiping immediately the Rom, TWRP has sometimes problems to unmount and remount partitions.
This produce then an error in the shown install script (system or data couldn't unmounted, they are busy - something like that...)
The Themes are in this Rom not located in /system/themes (there are just the icons to save place of system Rom)
The Themes are in /data/Hw_init/system/themes
If TWRP produce an error in mounting data after doing something before flashing the Rom, then Themes don't work cause the files were not copied as they should.
That's why I recommend to Reboot TWRP before flashing the Rom.
This was also the reason by a German User from Android Hilfe Thread.
He flashed the Rom again, and with the second flashing, Themes are working..
Edit: if you have flashed cust C432 it could be that the Phone Manager loose some parts like Permission Manager, Autostart Manager and so on?

Thank you for the mention, honestly I just said a few details only. We need people like you to shed some light on these unloved phones. XDA community thanks you heartfully for your contribution.
The only thing I can say is : Go Forth, and plant the Nougat to the ground herewith. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . It's time for Nougat to be rooted.

only windows 7 with msmdownload tool method is working.
Good news:

Hi, i recently update my oppo F3 plus (CPH1613EX_11_A.18_180413 marshmallow), and i try to root it using this method, it's always boot on the stock recovery when i finish (i did step by step every single world you said).
I think that's a security renforcement about this version of colorOs, i wonder if there is a way ton downgrade to the last version without losing my data (lots of apps), because i did root it whit the version that i had once.
Thanks you
Re: So, i flashed my oppo with the msmtool that you put on your post (all images expect datauser partition), and changed the recovery image before the phone boots..... and it woorks perfectly now.
PS: dont upgrade to the version CPH1613EX_11_A.18_180413 if you want root your phone, it won't work.

Did you uncheck "Reset After Download" option in msmtool ?
No, i didn't ; in all case i didn't let the phone boot after passing the recovery.img.
Wich version of rom do you have please ?
EDIT: when i downgrade the rom, it worked perfectly
NB: after downgrading , the first time, the phone boot directly and it was the new version (wich causes me problems) that was on it, even when i had flashing all the system

1. U need to uncheck reset after download option to not let the tool to reboot it phone into os
2. I have upgraded to a.18 build via ota 65mb and root worked. Tested with my own hands
3. Caution: if you dont CHECK userpartition in msmtool, after reboot it asks for Android password to proceed and we don't know that password. It's a checkmate. You need to wipe everything to boot
4. If you have patience please flash Magical 16.0 and test it. For me Wi-Fi is not turning on after flashing magisk.
5. I suggest you to use the twrp 3.1.0. bcoz the latest 3.1.1 does not flash oppo ota (.ozip)
Thank you for replying, can you please sent me a link for this OTA updates , beacause the one which is proposed for me on my phone weights 1.7Gb , and the only link i found is on a vientnam website wich doesn't work (probabely because i'm in algeria lol)

Hello everyone, my name's SmallTarzan (@dotMiracle at Telegram), and I'm here to do it once again - to write yet another guide.
But, why am I doing this? There are two other guides already that explain the installation process well.
Well, I've gone through them, and the first one was not clear to me, I had to read it several times to properly understand the guide. I think that's, especially for new users, not helpful. The other one was written quite well, (shoutout to @madsponge26).
So, here I am, with my little bit to add to this, so far quite empty, sub-forum.
- an unlocked bootloader
- a TWRP recovery image
- a GSI image of your choice
- an Encryption Disabler - the current build of TWRP cannot decrypt your data
The process of unlocking the bootloader is the same on all Xiaomi devices. (Not counting the Android One ones.)
This process factory-resets your phone.
-
0. Open your phone's settings, go to About Phone at the top, find "MIUI version (For POCO)", and tap on it 7 times. (You should see a notification at the bottom, that you are now a developer.)
0.1 Go back, scroll down to Additional settings > Developer Options > Check "OEM unlocking" slider, (it may ask you for your password). Also, open "Mi Unlock status", agree to the permissions, and click on "Add account and device".
0.2 After this, you have to wait for 72 hours to unlock your phone. (Xiaomi Security Procedure)
-
1. Head over to Xiaomi Unlock Tool website, register, if you haven't yet, and download the tool.
2. Open the tool, accept the agreement, log in, and connect your device via USB-C cable to your computer.
3. Now, we'll need to reboot our device to fastboot: Turn off your device completely, hold down power button + volume down button at the same time, until you see a green logo of "fastboot".
4. The tool should now detect the device, press the Unlock button.
At the moment, there's only one TWRP recovery image available for this phone.
0. Currently, the TWRP cannot decrypt your data, make sure to back it up beforehand.
-
0.1 Download the Encryption disabler
0.2 Download ADB tools (Also, run the .exe, let it install all the required files, the driver from Google too.)
0.3 It's recommended to remove your screen-lock before doing this.
1. Reboot your device to fastboot again: Turn off your device completely, hold down power button + volume down button at the same time, until you see a green logo of "fastboot".
1.1 Connect your device to your computer.
2. Open your ADB folder, shift+right click on an empty space in the folder, choose open a Powershell/Command prompt window. (The folder should be located at C:/adb, or in the root of your system drive /adb.)
3. Now, put the recovery image you've downloaded in the ADB folder.
4. Type: fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.3.0-beryllium-20180831.img (You can, optionally, rename the file to recovery.img to make the typing easier for you.)
5. Once the process completes, hold down the power button + volume up button. (Your device may even restart twice, hold these buttons until you see the TWRP recovery screen.)
6. Allow modifications, if prompted.
7. Go to Install > select the DisableForceEncryption_Treble.zip > Swipe to flash it.
8. Once that's done, go back to the main screen (by using the on-screen buttons), Wipe > Advanced Wipe > Select Data > Swipe to wipe.
9. Go back to the main screen again, Reboot > Recovery.
(Android P for Poco F1. For those who didn't get the pun.)
0.1 Let's get the image we want first. Head over to the: Treble-Enabled Device Development, and choose the OS you'd like.
For the sake of this tutorial, and obviously, the header with Android P in it, we'll use one of the P GSI images. I, personally, like the ArrowOS.
0.2 Reboot into recovery, and connect the device to your computer.
1. Download the ArrowOS-9.0-OFFICIAL-GSI-A.zip to your computer. (Or any other .zip you'd like to install.)
2. Unzip the file with WinRAR or 7zip.
3. Copy the .img file to either your SD card, or your internal storage.
4. Install > On the bottom right "Install Image" > Find the .img file > Tap on it.
5. Select partition System/System Image > Swipe to flash.
6. This might not be necessary, but I highly recommend flashing the DisableForceEncryption_Treble.zip again.
6.1 If you don't need root, reboot the device. (Reboot > System)
0. You may, as well, reboot the device first, and do the setup, in order to avoid any potential issues.
1. Download the latest stable version of Magisk.
2. Reboot to recovery.
3. Install > Find Magisk-v17.2.zip (make sure you selected "Install zip" at the bottom right) > Find the .zip file > Swipe to Flash.
4. Again, it's recommended to flash the DisableForceEncryption_Treble.zip.
5. Reboot > System.
@madsponge26
@Shivam Kumar Jha - used his TWRP image in this guide.
@ganesh varma - used his ArrowOS GSI in this guide.
No sound/Broken sound/Low volume temporary fix: here.
For GApps, you can download them here. Flash them through the TWRP recovery.
Reserved.
EDIT: The guide works for both MIUI 10, and P custom GSI ROMs.
Also, search for GSI A images.
Thanks @SmallTarzan for the tutorial. I will try it.
Starred for later reference when I finally got this phone.
Sent from my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 using XDA Labs
This is the first guide i actually understood. Thank you for that. I've one question though, the OS you suggested, is it stable for poco f1. I'm actually new to a treble device so i don't actually know how it works. Thank you once again for this guide.
Hello, thank you for your guide it's really very well explained with enough details that any newb can understand.
Btw, i have suggestion for your thread title, if you want you should rename your thread title to "[GUIDE]Install Any Android P GSIs In Your Poco"
Its just my suggestion cause i think it's better to follow the correct proforma:silly:
Anyway, have a nice day.
Regards,
Ali.

Thanks for your well made guide. I just wonder how well everything works with these GSI images. Usually some features don't work.

Running PixelExperience 8.1 GSI. Had a problem on the google initial play service setup. google came up with a message that my device is uncertified and I had to register it at google to use the play service. Anyone else got that problem ?
I bought a cracked version of the 4/64 version of Xiaomi Qin F21 Pro unlocked bootloader, rooted, and with preinstalled fully working Google Playstore and Play services running on the official firmware 2.0.8.
But lately there's a very nice update development from 4PDA website for the device! It took me a while before I made it work and a lot of trial and error.
I will make a full detailed easy to follow step by step tutorials on how to do it with all the links for the files required.
The results will be:
A fully converted v1.1.1 custom firmware without the chinese apps
TWRP Recovery
fully rooted
certified playstore and google services fully working
THE PROCESS COULD ALSO UNBRICKED THE PHONE
Requirements:
PC
UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER Xiaomi Qin F21 Pro (MTK soc) V1.0+ V2.0+ (4/64gb ONLY)

...........TUTORIALS SOON
TUTORIAL UPDATE!
MY DEVICE IS 4/64 with unlocked bootloader
Unofficial Qin F21 Pro (MTK chipset) firmware, version 1.1.1 multilanguage.
Thanks to @redsat, @gaguga and the whole 4pda community.
Install at your own risk and responsibility.
For testing purposes only, will be updated or changed if necessary.
Use SP flash tool for flashing, bootloader should be unlocked on the phone (via @mlgmxyysd tool or Ubuntu boot image). Having the full own ROM dump is highly recommended in advance.
Changes:
-Removed chinese applications
-Decrypted data partition
-APK installer with no restrictions
-System partitions are writable
TWRP recovery 3.6.0_11-0 is added
(In TWRP the phone memory is accessible via path: /data/media/0)
WARNING: FLASHING THE FIRMWARE WILL WIPE EVERYTHING! I SUGGEST BACKUP IMPORTANT FILES BEFORE DOING THIS. I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE DONT BOOT, SOFT/HARD BRICKED! THIS TUTORIAL IS TO DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!
ALL FILES REQUIRED FOR WINDOWS https://www.mediafire.com/file/tl8hv77gl0vo6sd/qin_f21_pro_mtk.zip/file
download and extract zip
extract "F21PRO_1.1.1 (2).zip" (the firmware)
extract "SP_Flash_Tool_V5.zip" (flash tool)
install drivers
open "flash_tool.exe"
select scatter file from the firmware folder
click download
turn phone off
hold back button then plug usb cable to pc. It should start flashing
after download complete, unplug then boot to TWRP then reset factory
Congrats! You now have chinese free apps firmware with TWRP Installed
If it wont boot "DEVICE ENCRYPTED", just go to TWRP and FORMAT DATA then reboot (it should boot to system now)
transfer "boot_2.img" phone or transfer it to a USB Flashdrive (more easier to locate) (FOR 3/32 VARIANTS TRY TO USE THIS BOOT IMAGE BOOT.IMG 3/32)
boot to TWRP once again
go to device path /data/media/0 or USB storage path using OTG
FLASH IMAGE "boot_2.img" to boot partition to fix the device twrp path to /sdcard (IMPORTANT! boot is an IMAGE FILE not ZIP FILE. by default, TWRP is set to check for zip file and will n0t se IMAGE FILES in the directories. YOU NEED TO TAP THE INSTAL IMAGE BUTTON so image files will appear)
reboot and proceed to installing ROOT and Google services
HOW TO BOOT TWRP:
* + heart button (upper left) + power on. once douqin logo appears press up button + power on immediately. TWRP first boot is in Russian language. just change it to english change twrp language
HOW TO ROOT + GAPPS with playstore certified + fix keypad annoying issue
transfer all the app APK from the "APK" folder youve download
install everything (QinPad be a more stable keypad input)
open gboard and enabled both gboard and QinPad (this should give you a quick switch of input in the notification bar everytime you will type something)
open MAgisk app and update the apps to 22.1. phone reboots (DO NOT UPDATE TO VERSION 24.3)
Open magisk again then Install Magisk > Select a patch file > choose "boot_2.img" in your directory (path where you transfer it)
transfer "open_gapps-arm64-11.0-pico-20211217.zip" to device
boot to TWRP
FLASH IMAGE "boot_2.img_patch" IN THE BOOT PARTITION. then reboot. should be found in download path in TWRP
go TWRP again and flash "open_gapps-arm64-11.0-pico-20211217.zip"
reboot > SYSTEM
you will see playstore. you will have an annoying message "device isnt playstore certified" just ignore it
open MAGISK app go to settings and enable MAGISK HIDE, search module and install "Busybox for NDK" then reboot
open MAGISK app, search module and install "MagiskHide Props Config" then reboot
open Terminal emulator app
type "su" enter (grant permission)
type "props" enter
type "1" enter
type "F" enter
type "30" enter
type "25" enter
type "2" enter
type "y" enter
type "y" enter (phone reboots)
after reboot wait gapps to update (around 5-10 mins) then sign in to playstore
you've now enter Playstore
go to playstore settings > about > click update playstore
wait for it to update the version and keep checking in playstore settings > about > IF DEVICE IS CERTIFIED
If the updated playstore still said " DEVICE IS NOT CERTIFIED", proceed to manual
install device id apps from playstore and copy your GSF ID
register it manually here > https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/?pli=1
go settings ~ apps and look for playstore and play services and clear data. reboot phone and Playstore should be certified!
Congats! your phone now is rooted with twrp, no more chinese apps, and with fully working google services. I suggest perform a TWRP backup and store it somewhere safe for future use.
HOW TO FIX NO/DELAYED INSTALLED APPS NOTIFICATIONS
Thanks for JawadEly for the info, it works!
1. Install all your apps
2. Install terminal emulator app and system app remover app from playstore (this will give you the apk path you want to systemize)
3. open magisk, search and intall "APP SYSTEMIZER" module then reboot.
4. open terminal emulator app
6. type "su" and grant the permission
7. type "systemize"
8. You need to set Selinux = TRUE by choosing "s"
9. once its set to TRUE, you can now systemize any app provided you know the apk path of the apps installed.
10. enter "3", here is where you put the apk path of the app you want to systemize
11. to get the apk path of installed app open the "system app remover" app you installed.
12. go to user apps and LONG PRESS an app you wish to systemize.
13. copy the apk path then go to terminal emulator and paste it. Type "1" to confirm.
14. Go to settings > apps list > clear storage of that app you transfer as system app
15. done! just repeat the proceedure for each app you wish to fix the notifications.
BEWARE! Be careful using system app remover. Don't uninstall system apps required for the android system. You might end up in a bootloop. This app is also used to remove bloatwares of OEM firmwares.
I made this tutorial as DETAILED and as EASY TO FOLLOW as posible. Credits to 4pda community group and for individuals who contributed that made all this posible. Sorry if my English bad. Not my native language. If you lke the tutorial, you can buy me a beer.

(In TWRP the phone memory is accessible via path: /data/media/0)
Separate TWRP as boot.img attached as well (thanks to 4pda comrade @yurxxl)
Also you can install Magisk and GAPPS as zip packages via TWRP.
WARNING: FLASHING THE FIRMWARE WILL WIPE EVERYTHING! I SUGGEST BACKUP IMPORTANT FILES BEFORE DOING THIS
ALL FILES NEEDED for WINDOWS https://www.mediafire.com/file/tl8hv77gl0vo6sd/qin_f21_pro_mtk.zip/file
download and extract zip
extract "F21PRO_1.1.1 (2).zip" (the firmware)
extract "SP_Flash_Tool_V5.zip" (flash tool)
install drivers
open "flash_tool.exe"
select scatter file from the firmware folder
click download
turn phone off
hold back button then plug usb cable to pc. It should start flashing
after download complete, unplug then boot to TWRP then reset factory
Congrats! You now have chinese free apps firmware with TWRP Installed
If it wont boot "DEVICE ENCRYPTED", just go to TWRP and FORMAT DATA then reboot (it should boot to system now)
transfer "boot_2.img" phone or transfer it to a USB Flashdrive (more easier to locate)
boot to TWRP once again
go to device path /data/media/0 or USB storage path using OTG
FLASH IMAGE "boot_2.img" to boot partition to fix the device twrp path to /sdcard
reboot and proceed to installing ROOT and Google services
HOW TO BOOT TWRP:
* + heart button (upper left) + power on. once douqin logo appears press up button + power on immediately. TWRP first boot is in Russian language. just change it to english change twrp language
HOW TO ROOT + GAPPS with playstore certified + fix keypad annoying issue
transfer all the app APK from the "APK" folder youve download
install everything (QinPad be a more stable keypad input)
open gboard and enabled both gboard and QinPad (this should give you a quick switch of input in the notification bar everytime you will type something)
open MAgisk app and update the apps to 22.1. phone reboots (DO NOT UPDATE TO VERSION 24.3)
Open magisk again then Install Magisk > Select a patch file > choose "boot_2.img" in your directory
transfer "open_gapps-arm64-11.0-pico-20211217.zip" to device
boot to TWRP
FLASH IMAGE "boot_2.img_patch" should be in download path
flash "open_gapps-arm64-11.0-pico-20211217.zip"
reboot THE CURRENT SLOT
you will see playstore. you will have an annoying message "device isnt playstore certified" just ignore it
open MAGISK app go to settings and enable MAGISK HIDE, search module and install "Busybox for NDK" then reboot
open MAGISK app, search module and install "MagiskHide Props Config" then reboot
open Terminal emulator app
type "su" enter (grant permission)
type "props" enter
type "1" enter
type "F" enter
type "30"
type "25"
type "2"
type "y" enter
type "y" enter (phone reboots)
after reboot wait gapps to update (around 5-10 mins) then sign in to playstore
you've now enter Playstore
go to playstore settings > about > click update playstore
wait for it to update the version and keep checking in playstore settings > about > IF DEVICE IS CERTIFIED
If the updated playstore still said " DEVICE IS NOT CERTIFIED", proceed to manual
install device id apps from playstore and copy you GSF ID
manual register it here > https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/?pli=1
go settings ~ apps and look for playstore and play services and clear data. reboot phone and Playstore should be certified!
Congats! your phone now is rooted with twrp, no more chinese apps, and with fully working google services. I suggest perform a TWRP backup and store it somewhere safe for future use.

Thank you for this! I managed to get everything installed and running. Will be testing it out in the meantime! Thanks again bro! No more bloatware!
If you have a 32GB model, when using Flash Tool, uncheck the tickbox saying "userdata" as leaving this on will completely brick your device.

I'm not sure. I found that warning from a Telegram group 3 days ago as someone already bricked their 32GB model when they flashed it with userdata option left being checked

Can I change qinpad language? or duoqin IME language? I want to change Korean, but I can't find the way.

I'd suggest to use Traditional T9 IME app. Not sure if this supports Korean as most of the languages supports English, French, Russian, etc.
