Also FOR ERROR 70 WITH GAPPS
Steps
Boot Twrp
Click on wipe
Advance wipe
Click on system
Then Repair or Change File System
Then Resize File System
Flash Gapps Profit.
ALSO!
IF YOU HAVE BOOTING ISSUES WHEN YOU HAVE COMPLETED THESE STEPS, FLASH THE STOCK BOOT IMAGE, TWRP OR MAGISK IS CAUSING ISSUES

Google implemented AVB verity to check and make sure that all the images in the partitions match each other before the device will boot. The device will not boot with a mismatched GSI image in the system partition. The zip disables the verity checks of the different partions allowing the device to boot with a GSI image.

Thanks, there’s lots of interesting stuff to with the Pixel .
So it booted but when i went back and flash GApps i got error 70 and i didn’t do the fix while in twrp i wanted to reboot system first then go back to twrp and do the fix . Seems that wasn’t a good idea it booted to the google screen then back to bootloader with and error saying “error booting boot.img . Gonna try doing the process all over again and do the GApps fix after flashing GApps before rebooting.
Not working for me, boots fine until i flash GApps and reboot system it just goes to bootloader and says "no valid slot to boot" .
I dont really care but dont think this is really the correct place for much of this stuff....maybe poke around here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development

I didn't have some booting issues at first with RR but I just flashed the stock boot image after it was all said and done and it boot fine. Not sure if it's twrp or magisk causing the issues
Edit guess I should add this in to the op

Funny i was thinking of doing that. Ok will try that . Doing a clean install of January patch and will have a go again .
Boots ok when i flashed boot.img after GApps but after a restart it just boots to fastboot and i if click on start or do a fastboot reboot it just goes back to bootloader . I think this needs some work .

Which GApps to use ARM64 9,0 or ARM 9.0 ? . Was reading that ARM64 doesn't work on pixel
Edit: No worries, i see it’s ARM64 .
I did a factory reset then install just the system.img in TWRP then flash GApps and Magisk before reboot as per instructions in RR thread . I boots fine but give the Android system error before you unlock . I report this in the RR psi thread and they said it's a known issue should just ignore it for now . Everything works . I'm using Google Fi which works fine .
This looked like a chance but disabling AVB, FBE and making the Kernel SElinux permissive has not helped to boot this here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...vice-development/pie-erfan-gsi-ports-t3906486
Anyone more lucky as i am or any ideas? Would really really like to get Miui or Xperia as System since it includes fancy stuff to play with...

Thank you for the instruction. I have been looking for a solution.
I finally managed to get TWRP and root installed. However, there seems to be a couple of issues:
a) It is not able to detect the microsd card. The option to mount the microsd is not available.
b) when clearing cache, there is a message, unable to find /cache partition.
From completing Step 2, it booted into TWRP, however instead of choosing 'Swipe to allow modification', I selected ' Keep read only'. Not sure if this contributes less than 100% TWRP installation.
However, I tried to install TWRP again, but the first boot screen where it has the option to 'Keep read only' and 'Swipe to allow modification' is not there anymore.
In any case, I would like to know
i) if the selection 'Keep read only' is correct or 'swipe to allow modification'?
ii) how can I fix the TWRP installation?
Many thanks.

Hello,
At which stage do you have a bootloop?
I just followed the steps and all work fine...
Why so complicated setup?
1. flash stock ROM via fastboot
2. fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1.img
3. install magisk 15.1
4. reboot to system
If first boot takes more than 2-3 minutes, hold power off button until phones restarts, second start will take the usual time.

the only thing I did differently from the instructions was that I updated from the previous version and did not directly install the fastboot ROM given in the link above. I'm trying using the fastboot ROM given above. let's see.

At the time of writing, the latest version of Magisk was 14.6. It is now 15.1, and you can use that one if you wish.
Yes, update, and make sure that after it is done, you are at build number N2G47H.7.12.19. Then you can root again as you will be at the latest stable Nougat build.

then i flash twrp-mia1-installer-tissot-3.2.1.0 and boot into system but there is a boot loop.
i did not install magisk to determine where the problem is.
Edit -- problem solved. I did nothing new but it went right this time! thanks guys all of you!! Cheers

I would not flash the actual TWRP unless you really need it with you at all times on the phone. I just boot into it when I need it. With TWRP installed, it's most likely that you won't get OTA updates.

15.1 and don't install TWRP, just boot it and don't allow system modifications or you won't be able to apply OTA.

Type Fastboot boot re (press tab for recovery shortcut)
Press enter don't close your window
In TWRP Allow Modification
Goto to Wipe > Advance wipe > check System/cache/data/internal and swipe to wipe
Don't reboot yet > goto reboot option and choose Bootloader
Goto CMD/Powershell just press Up arrow key and enter
Copy the ROM/GAPPS/MAGISK to you device
Flash ROM
Reboot to Bootloader
Goto CMD/Powershell just press Up arrow key and enter
Flash GAPPS/MAGISK
Reboot to System
Profit!

In step 3 after flashing rom , what about reboot to recovery instead of reboot to bootloader and flash twrp again?

Yes but it also installs the OS as well. You want a clean slate completely, if possible, so best to wipe it again before flashing a custom ROM.

May be it has to do something with files written when you boot N 1st time. Like temp files.

Its for the encryption. So if you flash custom roms it doesnt show "data is encrypted" in your first boot. Thats what i've read.
You can always try flashing without wiping internal and see.

Good day! Never failed to flash the rom in this way, the rollback to the nougat is made, the necessary recovery is loaded - an error 1. Tell me what might be the matter?
first, can i flash rom on both partion a and b ?
why after flash and rebooting to twrp again pation change to B?
why not flash magisk and gapps on same partion with first installation?

-Do not flash it on both slots.
-The reason it switches between A and B, is because the rom gets installed on the second partition and not the partition you are on when you flash it (i think).
-And you can't flash magisk or gapps because, like what i've said before, the rom gets flashed on the other slot.
Im not 100% sure that's how it works, so don't quote me.
I've flashed viperos having no issues. I had flashed nougat firmware before that. Now in order to flash another rom, do I have to flash stock nougat firmware again or is it ok that I just clean wipe and flash new rom?
Good day to everyone! I wish to provide proper steps on how to install the latest Oreo custom ROMs via TWRP in order to lessen the clutter in the custom ROM threads.
You'll need the following:
Latest TWRP Official (Fastboot TWRP)
Latest TWRP Installer (PERMANENT TWRP)
Considering you already installed TWRP via fastboot, we'll make it so that it will be permanently installed and you will not need to flash TWRP via bootloader again.
Download ROM + GApps (or no gapps if Pixel Experience)
Reboot to latest Official TWRP
Do necessary wipes (FORMAT data if having storage number issue; if not, wipe system/data/cache) then transfer ROM + gapps + magisk to internal/external storage
Flash ROM (don't reboot)
Flash latest TWRP Installer (for Permanent TWRP)
Reboot recovery (no need to transfer slots anymore as TWRP does it automatically)
Flash Gapps + Magisk
Reboot to system
To DIRTY FLASH or update the same ROM with an updated version
Reboot to recovery
Flash ROM
Flash TWRP Installer
Reboot recovery
Flash Gapps + Magisk
Reboot to system
For installing custom kernels
Download custom kernel
Reboot recovery
Flash custom kernel
Reboot to system
All of these has been tried and tested by me already.

Guys, TWRP Installer IS the Permanent TWRP. That's why you need to flash it every time after flashing custom ROMs.

With custom ROMs we have to install Twrp installer every time along with ROM zip, bit awkward.
Is it just me but every time I flash twrp after flashing rom, I got error 20 when flashing gapps. Here's my steps:
- flash rom
- switch partition
- flash twrp
- reboot recovery (or bootloader then flashboot recovery)
- flash gapps -> error 20
Without flashing twrp permanent, I can flash gapps, no error.

Yep. That's because the ROM being flashed overwrites the recovery since there's no recovery partition.

If we need to flash it every time after flash rom so how it's called permanent TWRP I don't understand. That because our device don't have recovery partition? If that so where this TWRP installed ( in which partition)?

It's called permanent twrp because it won't get replaced by built in recovery whenever you reboot to recovery from system. TWRP gets installed within a part of the system partition.

Is it just me but every time I flash twrp after flashing rom, I got error 20 when flashing gapps. Here's my steps:
- flash rom
- switch partition
- flash twrp
- reboot recovery (or bootloader then flashboot recovery)
- flash gapps -> error 20
Without flashing twrp permanent, I can flash gapps, no error.

Error 20 if I'm not wrong, means you are using the wrong gapps package.
Are you using the right one?

Yes, I certainly use the right one (8.1), that's why I was baffled when twrp says that my device is 7.1.2 every time I tried to flash the 8.1 gapps. Anyway, flashing rom then straightaway followed by gapps and magisk was fine. I can flash twrp installer later on. But I just don't understand why.

Well that's weird. Works for me by flashing Gapps and Magisk after rebooting to recovery since it switches slots when you do that. Did you possibly come from a Nougat ROM which is why that's the error showing up?

I was thinking of that too but no, I was on Oreo Jan built the first time I rooted the phone and flash LOS15.1. Do you think I should at least flash Oreo stock once? Maybe my bootloader is still Nougat
First download ADB, rr GSI, TWRP, magic Gapps, userdata from stock rom and unlocked bootloader
https://dl.twrp.me/daisy/twrp-3.2.3-0-daisy.img.html TWRP
https://get.resurrectionremix.com/?dir=gsi rr GSI install ab
https://opengapps.org/ arm64 android 9.0 nano
https://en.miui.com/download-354.html and extract images\userdata
first unlock bootloader using adb
turn off the phone, hold power and volume down(keep volume pressed),then type fastboot oem unlock then type fastboot reboot and free volume down button when screen changed.
then type adb reboot bootloader again, type fastboot flash system system-190120-arm64-ab-vanilla-nosu.img , and fastboot flash userdata userdata.img and type fastboot reboot.
first root resurrection remix, install magic Gapps, and go to magisk manager and add it to modules, and flash nano Gapps! thank you for kftX for saying Magic Gapps

My English is not very good but enough [TR]
I'd recommend using the TWRP here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...unofficial-twrp-daisy-mount-sd-fixed-t3889390
And, by the way, what is the purpose of flashing userdata? Is it just to wipe it?

then again type adb reboot bootloader, fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-0-daisy.img and it will boot to twrp. install gapps and reboot(if you want twrp use slider, if you don't want twrp click to don't install).
now reboot phone and finished!

which base do you use oreo or pie ?? with the steps that you indicate if I restore in the future will the gapps still be or will I have to do all the steps every time I want to restore?
then type adb reboot bootloader again, type fastboot flash system system-190120-arm64-ab-vanilla-nosu.img , and fastboot flash userdata userdata.img and type fastboot reboot.

what shouid I reboot to?
Is the rom stable for a daily driver? Does it have lag issues like other GSI roms?
mihhut said:
Pie. I will write what I understand, if you restore original rom, gapps are already included. I don't know "do we need flash Gapps after update". I'm not very good at software

So...why you post that 1st post with tutorial/info if you do not know anything? Just asking
Work
Before all, save a backup!! You will lose all tour data!
I've had full wipe (format data > yes , it will delete encryption)
Flash all rom 9.6.4.0 with .bat file (erase last sentence for no auto reboot after install)
No start system!
directly reboot into twrp
Full wipe (and data)
Reboot twrp (for valid deleting encryption)
install RR system
Disable force encryption
resize system partition
install Gapps 9.0 (if you want)
Install magisk (if you want)
reboot
All base work fine with this
For cam and RR setting work need to add SElinux module in magisk
safetynet not pass CTS (i will try universal fix)
LED no work
If you have problem with your sim card try this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78736646&postcount=195
With adb command
Work for me, sim back to 1 from 2 and network work fine with 9.6.4.0!!
Thanks to RR team and eremitein for help.

Yo dude can you please tell me how you resized the partition? That option is not there for me and I don't have enough space to install gapps.

I tried that, unfortunately that option is not there. Did you install twrp, or just boot it? Also, did you use the version of twrp twrp-3.2.3-0-daisy.img?

Install or not, i've this options
Edit: Oups Twrp > wipe > advanced wipe > check system > Repair or Change File System > Resize File System
To anyone having issues flashing GApps due to lack of space and afraid to mess with the partition sizes (as you should be) use Magisk Module Magic Gapps to flash them systemlessly.

It wont let me screenshot in twrp, but my only options when I go to "advanced wipe > repair or change file system" is change file system.
Like change file system is the only option. the resize option is misssing
So I have some experience with flashing Custom Roms, but I think I might be doing something wrong with the Mi Mix 3.
I unlocked the bootloader, installed the latest Version of TWRP (twrp-3.3.0-0-perseus), wiped all data and tried to flash Resurrection Remix v7.0.2 via Sideload, but after this resulted a bootloop with the MI logo when trying to boot, I tried to flash the Lineage OS 16, same result. Then I tried to install them as usual. Do you have an idea why this is happening?
Do you have the right vendor image installed? The vendor image for each room is different some use the Chinese one, others are using the global one. Check the room threads. The OP should tell you.

Wiping isn't enough, you need to format data
Try this
1.format data
2.flash eu firmware 9.5.9
3.let it boot
4.reboot to TWRP and wipe
5.flash 9.2.15 firmware (to have proximity sensor working) without rebooting flash Los and gapps
6.flash magisk if you like
7. Reboot

You may want to use the Xiaomi Mi Flash tool to restore using an image. I'm guessing you have mismatched vendor partitions, which is probably the cause of your issue. You can find instructions in the guides section.
