Im looking for a working app to root Mi Mix and install MIUI 10 or Lineage GSI. I have tried Kingroot but stays on 01%. Thanks in advance.
Don't do it with an app, do it by yourself so you know exactly what went wrong in case something goes wrong
PLEASE next time search the forums before posting.
Root can be found here: http://en.miui.com/thread-2449455-1-1.html
MIUI10 requires a unlocked bootloader if you are not on the beta team.
Instructions to do so can be found here:

Hello! I've been trying to find a guide or just anything about getting a Pie based ROM on my P20. Like AOSP, Lineage or anything. I currently only have access to MacOS so not using "the tool" is preferable, I might get it to work in wine though.
If I where to install the beta for EMUI 9, could I root, install magic, xposed etc?
Is anyone using a Pie based rom and have some info? What works and what doesn't? How did you do it, what ROM?
Any info highly appreciated, Thanks!
The progress on roms will be slow as no way to get bootloader unlocked just now hope somwon comes to rescue i also want to try porting roms over to my p20

For now there is no root possibility for EMUI 9. There is a new structure called "system as root". Which means that you don't have a ramdisk partition anymore. Ramdisk is integrated in the kernel with system as root. Hopefully the devs will find a solution.
Hi I want to root my phone. I am on android 9 and OOS 9.0.8. I have seen the guides on XDA and that is not what I am scared of. Can anyone link the correct twrp and magisk files that would I use as I am not sure which ones are suitable for the current OOS and android version I am on now. I have read loads of people saying using the wrong files can brick your phone and I dont really want to do that.Thanks.
Just use latest magisk and latest Blu spark twrp bcuz you are on the latest version of Android [Android 9 (Pie)]

I am slightly confused by the naming convention of the blu spark files on this website. Which two img and zip files go together?
Yeah it's pretty confusing to me too that's why I just follow his most recent stuff on his GitHub instead of the downloads section. He stopped updating the downloads section I think so that's why I've switched to his GitHub for he updates more frequently and faster to his GitHub.
(It's so he doesn't have to update his files multiple places bcuz it must get tedious for him/her)

Thanks for this, this is perfect!
Once Android 11 for the 7 Pro comes out, will everyone on the Open Beta's get upgraded to the stable Android 11 builds?
Typically they introduce it to open beta builds first if I remember correctly
It'll likely be released as Open Beta builds first, when you change between the release rings you usually need to do a wipe so make sure you back up data.

Yeah, a question as useless as it gets. Because obviously no one has an answer for it.
As others have said, wiping the data partitions will likely be part of the process to move from the beta to stable builds.
Hope this is a good place to ask. I had to get the old Oneplus 7 pro back and Renovate ICE is pretty much dead. I'm not sure if I want to go all the way to Android 12, since I think Oneplus only had it up to 11. On the downloads for Lineage OS though, they only go back to version(s) 19.x which is Android 12.
Help a brother out anybody?
Thanks.

Lineage OS 20, based on Android 13, was only released last month. Give it some time.
Thanks for the reply, but I am asking for an older version that the link(s) for which no longer exist, that I can find.

An older version of what?
I'm looking for version 18.x of Lineage OS which is based upon Andriod 11. It is a custom ROM for the Oneplus 7 pro.

Yes, it looks like they now only support 19.1 and 20 on that device. All 18.1 links are dead.

Part of the reason people install custom ROMs is to extend the support for their device.

True, but without an actual working stock ROM with the actual Android version you want to build for the device, you can no longer extract the /vendor files which leads to some things not working properly. So it's, "Hey look, I've got a version of Android on this phone you won't" with the qualifier "And everything works." Meaning it is a port. I've been using customer ROMS on all my Android phones for about 12 years or so now started with the Droid A855. Hell I used to flash different firmware on the old flip phones before.
And the whole reason for this thread is what you said. There appears to be no links for version earlier than 19.x, so I asked hopping that maybe someone had one laying around they could share or knew of a mirror or other link. I used to save and host lots and lots of ROMs on my personal server and used to link those repositories in my sig here and many other places.
So thank you for your replies.
