Any Working GSI After One UI 2.0 Update? - Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) Questions & Answers

I Rooted My Phone With TWRP installed after ONE UI 2.0 Update, all the GSI's that used to work before ONE UI 2.0 Update are not working now. I know that after that update our device became "System As Root" which means only ab GSI Would Boot but that's also not working, Some of the gsi works but they are having the same old GSI'S issues that I used to face in old ver of GSI's before this ONE UI 2.0 Update,like not working of camera, can't open any browser content etc. I'm still hoping that There might be a way to boot the stable GSI in this Device. If any of you guys know a way to install a working gsi after updating to ONE UI 2.0 Then please share it here ?

Anyone tried Magisk v14.1 Beta?

So I am running full stock on my Pixel that is updated to Oreo. I've read through the latest thread (HERE) on the new beta for Magisk that supports Pixel devices and wanted to know what steps folks may have followed to get this installed and working. The regular thread details some steps but it appears that those are driven towards other devices and doesn't account for the difference of Pixel devices.
Thx!
loaded up fine on my pixel!

Are you able to share the steps you took to get it loaded? It would seem that it isn't the same as other or previous version since those didn't apply to pixel devices.
Thx
Do modules work?
There's an offical Magisk Pixel (XL) Thread
I'm running it on Pure Nexus July build now. I ended up having to re-flash (dirty) the ROM to clear up the old goodwin_c Magisk install.
Seems okay for now. I have a couple of modules loaded but haven't had the opportunity to test whether they actually work. AirAudio at least doesn't fire a warning that the module isn't found.
There is a new update today. Mods were broken. Supposedly fixed now.

Steps on 8.0 were as follows
make sure youre on stock boot
boot into system once with stock boot
then boot into android 0 twrp
flash magisk
reboot to system

Can you try another rom? If you can, do so and report back to see if camera is fixed. I tried Pixel Experience and camera works. I have tried some roms and so far no problems, but have not yet tried the one you have and I'm far from where my Rosy is.

I installed open camera and it works just fine, however I just now realized that there's more than 2 A-only images. I was misreading the page and didn't notice that they all say (except for the 2 I noticed) A A/B so they all have an A-only image. I just downloaded the benzo ROM sand in flushing it now so I'll report back with results.

Yeah I also thought at first there were only 2 available because it said A only. Which one are you trying next?
I tried Benzo and it wouldn't work properly out of the box because it has gapps pre installed and my device is not registered with Google for whatever the hell they want now with custom ROMs and gapps.
After that debacle I flashed Havoc OS and it's fantastic. Rock solid stable, fast, no graphic glitches like on the pixelized ROM, and the fingerprint is lightning fast and the camera works perfectly.

Benzo didn't work? That one worked wonders for me. Pixel Experience also worked great for me. I'm glad you have now reached a ROM you like. Congratulations. Are you thinking of switching soon?

Actually you might be able to help me. I've tried to install Benzo, Arrow OS, and the pixel experience and they all start going crazy about the device but being registered with the Google framework id and I can't fix the issue. I've gone to the Google page to authorize the phone and I got my framework id and entered it but the phone never became authorized and therefore the roms were all useless to me.
Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong or how to correct this problem so I can try those roms?

Flashing & Booting Android 11 Beta 1 GSI (Pixel)

Hey guys, hope you are all doing well. I've been wanting to try the Android R Beta 1 GSI (by Erfan) on our OnePlus 6. However, the ROM did go bast the splash screen only to get stuck on boot animation. I think there's some issue with the vendor/boot/vbmeta. I am using OOS 10.3.3 files to do this.
If anyone could help here, it would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Sohail

Did you resize the partrition before flashing R beta??.i tried one with PD2 but the pin ran out quickly,on PD3 that did not have signal
You should back to Android 10.and wait for oneplus 6 update to Android 11
Hey, I booted R B1 port by Erfan on my 6T, here's the process:
I flashed Lineage OS on both slots (I was using OOS 10.3.2 as base), wiped everything except vendor, and then I flashed the R img on both slots using TWRP + the permissiver zip.
FOD doesn't work of course (Maybe OP6 users have a little bit more luck and the capacitive sensor works, who knows)
Camera works (Tested with Gcam MJL, stock cam crashes)
Brightness is broken (Stuck at max level)
Flashlight doesn't work
Sound works
RIL works
Performance is horrible, lags and freezes everywhere

Installing TWRP while on Android 9

I currently own a Pixel 3a and it's on the latest Android 10 security update, I would like to install a custom rom onto it but since TWRP doesn't support Q I'm wondering if I flashed the 3a with a Pie image and then installed TWRP, would I then be able to use Android 10 custom roms.
Also if anyone could recommend any roms that offer similar features without the massive System size (live captioning, google camera, hold power for gpay) that would be great!

Nope you'll be stuck using Android 9 Roms. Total waste of time is what it is

Working GSI ROMs on Mi Note 10 Lite / toco

As the title says, here's a list of some GSI's i have tested so far... but first for some story.
Bought the phone in summer, it's quite nice but has its own issues like no kernel source BUT since we can unlock the device and actually play around, oh boy it has been fun.
On the course of few hours and many downloads later I have a small list of GSI's that worked!
Every GSI I have mentioned REQUIRE device specific patch(es)!!!
For that you have to root.
----------------------WORKING GSI's-------------------------
BlissROM - It boots and functions quite fast
Cons: no included Gapps
Flashing any system editing patch results in "Phone is booting" homescreen.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/treblerom/files/BLESS/2020.09.21/
3.5 jack, VoLTE, Bluetooth, ComboFix patches are required, flash with Magisk manager
DO NOT USE FixLagSmooth
HavocOS 3.7 and 3.6 - Work and can be daily driven
3.6 requires FixLagSmooth patch
MUST root and apply all linked patches (don't use FixLagSmooth on 3.7, you can but no need)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...rom-how-to-install-android-10-gsi-mi-t4126223
AOSP Android 10 based - Also does work and requires patching
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...rom-how-to-install-android-10-gsi-mi-t4126223
HydrogenOS Android 10 - Works
Has few bugs
No Google services
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/gsi/HydrogenOS/
----------------------COMMUNITY REPORTED GSI's-------------------------
Android 11 GSI - Reported to be functional by HumptyPotato47, thanks mate!
No Gapps as of now NikGapps exist for Android 11, search XDA for it!
Requires more testing...
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/releases/tag/v300.f
----------------------MAYBE WORKING GSI's-------------------------
OxygenOS 10 GSI - Seems to work.. sorta
First boot after exiting fastboot causes the phone to reboot
Second boot will loop
https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/gsi/OxygenOS/
----------------------NON FUNCTIONAL GSI's-------------------------
You tell me
...I did find a very nice list of GSI ROMs to try out more, here's the link:
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
----------------------FLASHING GSI-------------------------
If you test one then don't hesitate with replying which one, about the experience, bugs and how you installed it.
My method of installing was this:
1. Make sure to have the new adb commandline that supports fastbootd mode
2. Drop the GSI .img file in /adb directory for ease
3. Make sure you're running MIUI with unlocked bootloader and USB debugging enabled
3.5 MAKE SURE you get a GSI ROM with Gapps as existing TWRP isn't fully functional
4. GSI you should have must be AB partition!!!​
Once all set then follow the next commands
>adb reboot bootloader
>fastboot -w
>fastboot reboot fastboot
>fastboot erase system
>fastboot flash system "GSI-ROM-name-without-quotes".img
>fastboot reboot bootloader
>fastboot reboot​
----------------------SETTING UP GSI-------------------------
Once all that is complete it should boot, if not then that specific GSI does not work.
Also a thing worth mentioning! Whenever I boot this phone to fastbootd Windows keeps forgetting what driver it was which requires
few extra clicks in device manager to set it up for fastbootd use. Including an image with simple to follow instructions if you have the same issue.
>fastboot boot twrp.img
Once in TWRP you should be able to access internal storage with your computer, drag Magisk.zip over and flash. Don't forget to wipe cache!
If it boots normally then root was successful, now apply the linked patch and reboot once again. Since we are playing with GSI:
Head to Settings
Find Phh Treble Settings
Misc features
Check Disable audio effect. -- DISABLE IT AFTER PATCHING!!!​
IMPORTANT!!! I only tested Havoc and Bliss for a long period, IF one of my mentioned GSI's or others require more patches then I have linked headphone jack and Bluetooth audio patches too.
Combo fix should do the trick thought so your mileage may vary.
----------------------HELP US-------------------------
IF you find more working GSI's then tell us and I will make sure to add them to the main post so it won't get clogged under other comments!
Update on 05.10.2020 GMT+3
Bliss ROM GSI
As only a day or two have passed I already encountered few issues.
> You cannot remove screenshot sounds, even when fully muted
> Data drain is something interesting I've noticed, consumption compared to MIUI is higher.
> When using the gesture navigation it is a bit buggy when using quick side swipe for multitasking.
Positive notes!
> It is stupid fast
> Battery life is good
> GCam is amazing
> 99% of the customization options work perfectly
> Fast charging modes and such work perfectly
Neutral stuff...
> No FOD, thanks for closed source
> whenever you take a picture or a screenshot and have Blutetooth audio connected, it pauses and plays out loud via speaker. No music leaks out

Havoc OS and Bliss ROM are both quite stable, albeit with Bliss you don't get Gapps which is a huge bummer to most users.
Personally I just installed MicroG services and use Aurora store with anonymous "account".
When I tried to flash Gapps with TWRP I ended up soft bricking ROM so it was required to restore stock and try again. Of course there's no need if you can still use fastbootd.

FOD is not working as the driver sources are not public, reverse engineering is not possible too afaik. Everything else works.
Should i send this phone back to Amazon?
Seriously, last night i bought it, thinking about to install some custom rom, but if there are no developers caring of it, i might returb the phone to the seller...
IMO MIUI EU is better then GSI roms. Everything works. Got rid of most chinese crap. You can use Magisk.
Have nice features (MIUI in general). The only thing i dont like -mine turns on WIFI byitself dotn know how it happens... but it happens when i sleep. china collecting logs?

Literally the main reason I made this post is to help others who are interested to use GSI ROM's on their devices. I do agree that MIUI has some decent features and I did use Xiaomu.eu before but it was so buggy. In the end I love customizing the device however I like it so MIUI is just not for me. Either way I might try to negotiate with Amazon to get a refund as touch and Bluetooth problems still persist. Fun fact, on Bliss the edge detection is pretty good and not as aggressive or straight out bad.

Actually there are plenty of people ready to build ROMs for Toco (Mi Note 10 Lite) and Tucana (Mi Note 10) but there just isn't any kernel source available. Making things worse is the cancelled release of Toco in India and we know that they are one of the biggest Android ROM builders next to Russians. No one there is gonna import a device like this because better phones for money exist. If you don't like it then yeah I recommend returning otherwise give GSI a try for now and see what happens.
You won't lose warranty as there is no E-fuse like on Samsung phones so locking bootloader and flashing back to stock is enough.
Is anyone try oos gsi ?

The mentioned Mi Note 10 Lite for India was supposed to be called Mi 10i or something like that. It quickly disappeared and is not happening.
Of course I might be wrong by this date but looking for now there is no 10i, only speculation videos and threads.
Mi Note 10 Lite for India would've been code named "tocoin", same hardware and everything else so just a rebadge in old Xiaomi fashion... :laugh:

Not sure if the one I linked is up do date, give it a try yourself as my device went in for warranty repairs.
Hello, I am currently using Xiaomi.eu based on MIUI 12 and I would like to know how to flash HAVOC OS GSI. Should I flash back to Global Rom then flash the GSI as indicated? Answer is greatly appreciated.
