this usually happens because your vendor does not support treble..

If I'm not mistaken it's not up to vendors to provide treble support, only the phone manufacturer. Vendors just provide code for vendor-specific hardware inside a phone. The goal of project treble is to eliminate the need to alter vendor-provided code whenever a new android system is released.

Noob guide to install GSI on whyred

Today I flashed Pixel Experience GSI on my whyred after much trouble so here is a guide to make things clear.
if you are coming from MIUI you have to format data from twrp. this is a must to disable encryption.
after you are done formatting data. just do factory reset from twrp and then go to advanced wipe and then do the regular dalvik, cache, system, data and then swipe to wipe.
now the thing is whyred officially supports treble but the implementation is shoddy according to XDA folks. so if you flash GSI over miui's vendor there will be many bugs. like brightness slider not working and many things. so they(all credit goes to them) created a vendor zip which makes things really good. there are no bugs and it also supports volte. here is the download link .
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=273660
now flash this zip file in twrp.
after that download the GSI of your choice from here.
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
remember to download arm64 A only system image.
here is pixel experience GSI which I prefer:
https://download.pixelexperience.org/treble_gsi/
now extract the zip and you will get a single .IMG file which is your system image. now go to twrp and then go to install then go to select install image downward. (don't flash directly, it's an .IMG file) then select the extracted .IMG file and then choose system and then flash.
then reboot system. that's it. you should boot fine.
download latest official twrp from here: https://dl.twrp.me/whyred
if you want root you will have to flash magisk beta 16.6 which works better on GSI. download here.
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v16.6/Magisk-v16.6.zip
to use Google camera you will have to enable camera2api. arnova's gcam doesn't work on this build. you will have to use BSG's gcam. here is the link. enable nexus style and active portrait mode from settings.
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/MGC_5.2.022.apk
few tips: if your device is not booting and going to fastboot, flash magisk. it will definitely boot up.
if your device shows decryption failed, just format data from twrp. it will delete all user data btw.
no need to flash lazyflasher.
there are no uncertified device pop up from Google. so no need to worry.
playstore shows uncertified btw and magisk shows CTS false.
all the links that I have linked here, the credit goes to the creators. I am a normal user of XDA. thanks to them.
happy flashing and all hail the XDA lords.
How is Pixel experience gsi though?....faced any bugs till now?
it's good but there where few bugs. anyway pixel experience rom specifically for whyred has been released. you can flash that. it's great and bug free. download it here. it's not GSI though. normal ROM.

I was on the June build, I had issues with bluetooth audio (didn't work) and USB connection to computer (did not work). I think the USB issue was due to Magisk but I never did figure out the bluetooth issue.
No issues with the whyred version of Pixel Experience.
I also faced the same issue. But I see July build of GSI is up so those bugs might be fixed. anyway the PE ROM for whyred is excellent.
btw GSI will help us when P will release next month.

So should I flash the ROM or the gsi?....are there any differences?
you should flash the ROM as it's specifically for whyred. its flashing instruction is different than GSI. but easy. just wipe and then flash the ROM. and reboot. that's it.
you may have to format data to disable encryption.
here is the forum discussion: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3816099

Thanks mate for your experience, no detailed information in PE thread about wipes to do, before or after, can help with it? May be also with magisk release to install and best gcam to use?
remove all security like fingerprint, pattern etc.
go to twrp
go to wipe
do factory reset
go to advanced wipe
select dalvik, cache, system and data and then wipe
go to install
flash the pixel experience rom
reboot to system
that's it
if you get a prompt to enter password to start android then you will have to go back to twrp and go to wipe and format data and type yes. it will delete all your files btw. so backup everything. then reboot it will boot up fine.
after you have done booting and set up, go back to twrp and flash magisk v16. reboot to system. all done.
I have already given details of gcam in my OP. Kindly check that. The same works great on this ROM.
ask me if you face any problem. happy to help ?

You are the man!!! 10 hours remaining for unlock bootloader, i'm ready and now, with your help, more confident... Thanks a lot!!
I understand your excitement but do check your build whether you are on Anti rollback. if you are on 9.5.19 you should absolutely not proceed right now.
read about it on XDA.

[dupe sorry]
You should by all means read about antirollback to be sure, but my understanding is that the antirollback refers to the firmware, not the rom. MIUI roms all include different firmware, so you can't rollback a MIUI rom (unless it's been modded to be firmwareless). But as far as I know, no custom roms include firmware, so you should be fine even if your firmware is ARB triggered if all you're doing is installing custom roms.
Hi, someone flashed latest Pie Phh GSI? I tried with PE CAF, AOSIP, and Mokee vendors but doesn't boot, always stuck at the Mi logo, even I flashed the permissiver patch without luck.
Is GSI better than respective Rom (say Havoc GSI as compared to Havoc OS rom)?

i doubt that decryption works with this recovery - as there is no single word of decryption within the update log - its sad that there is so so little interest in developing for our really nice a2 lite

On a good note dev has been picking up a lil bit.
i hope you are right an we see some progress with a fully working recovery and then some good roms for the a2 lite - as it is a realy great device for the little money it costs - unfortunatly i am not able to do or at least try some developing myself as i am lacking the mandatory skills to do so

I'm in the same boat lol
Can't boot the image via fastboot, only endless boot animation.
Regarding to wifi the problem probably is, that the wifi kernel module is not compiled or included when building the kernel for the boot.img. This is very important with AB devices, because they use boot partition as recovery and therefore has to include kernel.

It's to inform that i rolled out this on the request of some users.
Flashing guide is :

Don't flash the img otherwise you will get wifi issues.

Hello mate. It's interesting to see different options come up when we started to think that development for XC come to an end. Thanks for this valuable effort. I want to ask a few things.
1- What is your opinion about dreaded problems with 4.9 kernel like random reboots and some reported Wi-Fi issues (although I don't remember I ever had this) etc.
2- recovery is independent of this setup right? I mean can I use twrp as recovery?
3- I suppose we'll be stuck with this boot.img unless personally build another one with synced sources right?
4-One of your cautions was about dead sd card? Is there a predicted risk or was it a general warning?
Again thanks a lot for this. I think I'll give it a try tomorrow may be.
PS: I also would like to know what to look for compatible GSIs. (I tried Phhs' and some other Android 10 GSIs with zygote and permissiver patches but they didn't past the sony logo. Stuck at sony logo or bootloop)
Update: Question 2 answered. No problem with twrp. Erfan's generic 10 gsi booted with zygote and permisiver patches. But stuck at setup screen.

1 - I don't know about these problems, I was with 3.x kernel before but you can rebuild the kernel of your choice (it doesn't take too much time) by changing the .dtsi file corresponding to our device
2 - Yes but do not wipe the cache, as the vendor image is in it
3 - Yes, but it doesn't take too much time to build it, share if you do
4 - Just a general warning, not experienced

Normally I set the selinux to permissive so no need to apply the permissiver patch
PS : sometimes it goes into bootloop but if you reboot it starts like a charm (test that with POSP 10)
PS2 : Mobile network does not work with Q roms, if you success to make it work please share
PS3 : POSP Pie works fine
Tell me if I'm thinking of installing Project Treble.
1.Flash all sections through the fastboot?
2.Ask for recovery what is in the link on the github?
3.Ask for a boot link on github?
4.Select vendor.img in the cache section?
5.What to ask for?
6.Select a suitable GSI image and boot again?
If somewhere I am wrong correct me. I'm sorry I'm new to this.

Good news that /e/ is working correctly, I was about to try to build a e variant on Chippa's build.
I do have one question. Really new to trebble.
If we wanna root it, we apply usual procedure*? flash the root zip(magisk) in recovery
This is amazing!! Breathing new life in to my XC. Thank you for sharing. Just flashed /e/ and it's working really well so far. Although I see that selinux is not enforced, anyone know why?
can't boot any FW excluding /e/, but /e/ don't satisfy me at all.

bootloops native xperia gsi

POSP boots as much of the Pie Gsi, 10 are more capricious (POSP 10 boots for example, but sim is not detected)

Then probably erfans 10 is better. Because sim Wi-Fi camera etc works. Just didn't tested thoroughly. Only downside setup doesn't complete. Personally I don't use Google services so no problem for me but setup notification persists like it tries to complete setup but doesn't actually progress.
I flashed /e/ and it's pretty stable and smooth but my device is overheating when charging and even when it's idle and the display is off. I'm getting severe battery drain from it.
EDIT: Wiping all the partitions and flashing from scratch seems to have done the trick.
I've been using Arrow OS and it's pretty stable and smooth so far. Comes with GApps built-in and Jan 2020 security patch:

I didn't anything extraordinary follow the steps in the first post. (Since android version would change I formatted data) use erfanoabdis' unofficial Q gsi which you can find a link at phhusson' gsi images link list. (You can also find the link to phussons list in the first post)

Development BKLYN Kernel for SM-S901/6/8/E

Disclaimer: I am not responsible if you use this and brick your device or if your device blows up, implodes, flames start shooting from it or it kills your neighbor's dog. Flash at your own risk. I am not responsible.... It was the other guy... I swear....
ALWAYS BACKUP YOU’RE DATA BEFORE FLASHING.
This tutorial assumes you understand how to use adb and fastboot.
Your device’s bootloader has to be unlocked.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It seems some users need to flash a vbmeta image file provided by Google in order to boot and user the Custom Kernel. If you find yourself in a situation were you are not able to boot, please flash the attached vbmeta img along with the Kernel and if still bootlooping share the last_kmsg to determine what's driving the issue.

I only tired it on SM-S908E you can try it if it doesn't work just flash your boot.img
I look forward to see where this will progress. Oh, I miss the days of custom kernels and custom ROMS so much! I don't think I've ever enjoyed any phone more than I enjoyed the days of the Note 2, then life got busier. Nexus 5 was great too with custom ROMS, and the Pixel 2. These days it seems all the security measures by manufacturers (and it's understandable), is preventing a lot of crazy independent development.

Question GSI installation instruction.

As you may know the a12 has some issues with gsi and random reboots on post kernel installations,I found some work around especially for U variants models.
Install stock rom,unlocked bootloader is needed.Install TWRP then install Rainbow kernel(choose the last on in the thread on the last page,no reboot issues on U variants) and let device boot up.Find a GSI that's your preference,then flash as system img in TWRP.Wipe data/Cache.No magisk zip require just install the app and finish the setup for root ect.
Best to use PHH base but I have gotten lineage 19 to work,also the kernel fixes the Screen issue where it shuts off.Also can confirm Official TWRP works on the a125u variant.The new android 13 GSI is confirmed working if curious just don't flash vbmeta and wipe data or you'll get a bootloop

Install stock rom,unlocked bootloader is needed.Install TWRP then install Rainbow kernel(choose the last on in the thread on the last page,no reboot issues on U variants) and let device boot up.Find a GSI that's your preference,then flash as system img in TWRP.Wipe data/Cache.No magisk zip require just install the app and finish the setup for root ect.
Best to use PHH base but I have gotten lineage 19 to work,also the kernel fixes the Screen issue where it shuts off.Also can confirm Official TWRP works on the a125u variant.The new android 13 GSI is confirmed working if curious just don't flash vbmeta and wipe data or you'll get a bootloop

I had the same issue,there's no resize partition in TWRP but on GSI storage is the norm 32gb.

What variant are you using,I'm using the a125u with the a125w bootloader,and vbmeta I used to unlock from another thread here,never had a problem with TWRP,does your phone say cannot verify vbmeta when it boots up? Mine says it in blue text.

It works,depends on what version you used,I used Andy's Lineage based on his and PHHs commits,only issues I've had with is is headset detection issues,which is fixed by going into phh settings,also you need to wipe data after install.ill link it for you

Do you have problems when trying to restart its hungs up or other problem stuck on deadboot in gsi12 rom the only way to fix is doing force reboot via volume down and power
No problems except when I try to place a call it instantly hangs up

it always goes to the one i connected first
