Flashing & Booting Android 11 Beta 1 GSI (Pixel) - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

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

GSI images tested with POCO

I've tested 3 GSI images with my phone last weekend, here are the results:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. PixelExperience: https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/how-to/treble-pixel-experience-9-0-t3839681
or here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...ce-development/9-0-pixelexperience-p-t3833294
- Everything work well
- Feel faster than stock, no mi nonsense
- Wifi and data work fine
- Sound: OK
- Camera: work
- Bug: NO DARK MODE, it went black, and never come back.
- Ugly: the notification bar is not so compatible with curve screen, the clock and battery percentage almost got cut-off
- I might do something wrong, but my bank app said the phone is rooted. So, I have to flash stock back.
2. LineageOS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...vice-development/9-0-lineage-os-16-0-t3840801
- There is this "privacy protection" error pop-up all the time
- Booted, run smooth
- Wifi and data work fine
- Sound and camera work.
- LineageOS handles the top and bottom curve better than PixelExp, the notification bar look better
- Some setting features were not working and follow with error, but the phone still work normally after error message
- I really hope the Lineage team get it work really soon. :good:
3. HavocOS: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...-device-development/rom-havoc-os-8-1-t3819050
- Bootloop...end
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Step
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. With adb tool, flash system image (I've tried to flash PixelExp system image with TWRP, and got to bootloop, so I've changed to flash with adb command)
4. With TWRP flash decrypt
5. With TWRP wipe cache/dalvick
5. With TWRP format data
6. With TWRP flash decrypt again
Is there any way to flash PixelExperience without root?
PS. When I wrote that the camera work: I mean it works you can take a picture with both front and back cameras, but I didn't compare the picture quality at all.
Just tested Aosp Extended and I'll take the template you posted in the OP so it's easier for you.
AEX post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...device-development/rom-aosp-extended-t3821934
- Rebooted itself a few times during the first boot.
- Felt sluggish during the first minutes, but then everything went smooth as butter.
- Wifi and data work fine
- Sound: OK
- Camera: work, but worse quality than stock
- Bug: NO DARK MODE, it went black, and never come back. In order to fix this you need to reflash the image
- Ugly: the notification bar is not so compatible with curve screen, the clock and battery percentage almost got cut-off. However you can almost fix it changing the display size, not a perfect fix but better than stock.
I'll be going to MIUI stock again, even though I hate it
Thanks for your feedback, you will save us a lot of time!
So, so far, you haven't found any GSI that handle completely properly the notch and curves of our screen?
I dont have any cut off on pixel experience after couple of reboots

For me, the time and battery percentage are closer to the edge than yours.
Also, is it root? Can we flash without root?
Thanks.

I, personally don't have any preferred template.
It seems as if the AEX is more or less on par with the PixelEx.
Can you manage to flash it without root?
I can live with a bit ugly notification and some minor bug, but I need to use the bank app. So I want to flash it without root.
I tested RR v6.1 GSI and it works with 2 intolerable bugs.
1, 3.5mm headphone not works. Speaker still works when haedphone plug in.
2, since the notch removed by command 'wm size 1080x2074' (result:here), screenshots will add black frame on the top and bottom, and the original contents(1080x2274) are zipped into 1080x1902, so it looks a liitle strange
RR GSI post: gsi-resurrection-remix-o-6-1-0-t3811299
Flashed arm64 a only 0818 version.
- root(magisk 17.1) and xposed v90 beta3 work.
- Wifi and data(CMCC) work
- Sound: both speakers work
- Camera: work
- Bug: headphone not work , screenshot problem
although i hate MIUI , i have to return to it . i need 3.5mm. looking foward to lineage 15.1 or aosp, etc.
I'm not sure why everyone is so eager to test these GSI builds when they don't actually work 100% as stable.
LOS 15.1 development already in progress and I've been watching it, everything is looking good so far ( including camera, dual 4g/volte). Just give the devs sometime for the release.

I could answer that...easily...maybe
I hate MIUI.
I hate ads full rom.
I have high hope for the project treble, it's a good starting point for generic device rom.
I don't know about your development of the lineageos, this is the first post I saw this information.
Also, it's fun to try something, even not perfect, it's still fun to mess around.

Thanks for the great news. And do you mind telling that you ve been watching the development where exactly?
Thanks once again.
Tried 9.0 roms
1 Treblized os: very smooth and stable VOLTE problem.
2 Pixel experience: Smooth but thermal throttling is broken hearts up quite bit.
3 lineage os: doens't look as good as PE and yeah no VOLTE is any GSI 9 or 8.1
4 Arrow os: The best of all. Fast snappy.
5 Havoc os: Bootloop tried everything.
Tried 8.1 roms:
1 Arrow os: The best I must say. PUBG experience is great the touch is really snappy and accurate for some reason.
2 RR official: Has some weird issue maybe sound don't remember.
3RR unofficial: there were 2 unofficial builds one booted fine and the other got Bootloop. Sound was good in unofficial and boot animation is better.
4 Aquarius os: Simple and good.
5 Dot os: well I've tried this GSI on my OP5T it was amazing but in Poco it doesn't feel as stable as others.
After trying all these GSI roms the best stable snappy and thermal friendly ROM was 8.1 and 9 Arrow os.
Like if I helped you.

Well I'm not sure because I flashed root on every GSI because my device feels uncomplete without it but I'm sure you won't have any problem with no root and yeah in some GSI roms we have option to download with gapps/su/ or vanilla
Edit:
I needed root access because I used this universal notch fix
Go to terminal give root access and type
"wm overscan 0,90,0,0" this completely pushes the notification panel below the notch and fits perfectly!

2 Questions
1. I didn't intend to flash root, but when I flashed the "Encryption disabler" (that every guides suggest to flash, see attached), it became root itself. Can I not flash it?
2. Do I need to fix the notch in ArrowOS, is it not detect and adjust by itself?

1. The encryption disabler is only for MIUI roms because it encrypts your data on first boot but GSI roms don't encrypt your data so you can skip flashing that after flashing GSI
2. Only Pie roms have the ability to adjust to notch currently this feature is not available in 8.1 roms so it'll look weird.
The notch situation is a bit better in Lineage 9.0.
In every ROM, ir unlock doesn't work (as expected), and volte doesn't work (expected?!).
All cameras work well.

I'm a very beginner so to flash without root:
0. Unlock bootloader
1. Flash recovery TWRP
2. In TWRP flash encryption disabler
3. Wipe (normal wipe?)
4. Reboot to recovery (Do I need this step?)
5. Flash GSI
6. Then reboot to system
Am I right?
Thanks for your answer.
PS.
If I flash the GSI with adb fastboot, do I need to flash the encryption disabler?
(In fastboot, I do the "fastboot flash system GSI.img")

One-time process:
1. UL bootloader.
2. Flash twrp.
3. Format user data for twrp dycript then reboot to recovery again without booting to os.
4. Flash encryption disabler boot once to os.
After this process you don't have to flash the encryption file again and again because it modifies your vendor partition for treble enable. You'll have to flash this file again after flashing any MIUI rom. If you need root in GSI you can flash this file or you can skip.

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.

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?

I was using pixel experience rom but then I flashed stock MIUI and suddenly sensors stopped working. What could have caused it and how can I fix it? I want to stay on MIUI. Thank You!

To fix this issue you need to flash persist.img from Fastboot rom to Persist partition using Orangfox recovery- But remember after this you may/will loose widevine L1 support to L3

Why

Question Anyone get OxygenOS 12.0.0 to install?

I downloaded it. Went to local upgrade, installed it.
Went to Magisk and did install to inactive slot like normal. And it reboots. Then a small bootloop for a second. Then goes straight back to normal. Like I never installed anything.
Any thoughts?
I tried to root by patching new boot.img but get bootloop which not fixed except after msmdownload tool

0p9 partitions..A 12 - Google Drive

All three are in here. Make sure to use magisk 23.0 to patch boot and vendor boot so you don't loose modules and magisk hide. Then you disable verity before boot with vb_meta img. You have to do from sdk platform tools folder though. Will not work just putting in a folder on desktop and pulling cmd window from there. Enjoy , follow the above guide to a T

Thanks a lot for the files Mattie.
My experience with OOS 12 so far has been a nightmare, and I'm not even rooted.
For the record:
I was coming from OOS 11 not the latest version previous to OOS 12, rooted, pretty much stable but I felt the phone pretty slow in comparison to other (Long story short, I got a brand new OnePlus 8 I bought almost a year ago but couldn't get my hands on it, so after getting tired of waiting for it, bought the OP9).
My OP8 is not rooted, doesn't have the bootloader unlocked, and it's miles faster than my OP9 with about the same apps installed with the exception of the apps that require root.
So, since my OP9 was feeling slow in comparison, I decided to go at OOS 12 to see how it went. First experience was bad, the phone kept hanging, didn't read the SIM correctly at first, so I read someone that was suggesting to do a factory reset to fix some issues.
I did a factory reset, deleted everything on the phone to start OOS 12 from zero, and the phone keeps hanging, specially when I get phone calls via Whatsapp or other apps, and less but still some problems with "answering incoming phone calls".
At this point I rather try to downgrade to OOS 11 and sit this one out for a long while.
I thought about rooting OOS 12, but being honest, having root is not going to make the phone more stable or anything. I guess I'll do give it a try at OOS 12 in 3-6months after a couple of updates, maybe other versions are better.

I was coming from OOS 11 not the latest version previous to OOS 12, rooted, pretty much stable but I felt the phone pretty slow in comparison to other (Long story short, I got a brand new OnePlus 8 I bought almost a year ago but couldn't get my hands on it, so after getting tired of waiting for it, bought the OP9).
My OP8 is not rooted, doesn't have the bootloader unlocked, and it's miles faster than my OP9 with about the same apps installed with the exception of the apps that require root.
So, since my OP9 was feeling slow in comparison, I decided to go at OOS 12 to see how it went. First experience was bad, the phone kept hanging, didn't read the SIM correctly at first, so I read someone that was suggesting to do a factory reset to fix some issues.
I did a factory reset, deleted everything on the phone to start OOS 12 from zero, and the phone keeps hanging, specially when I get phone calls via Whatsapp or other apps, and less but still some problems with "answering incoming phone calls".
At this point I rather try to downgrade to OOS 11 and sit this one out for a long while.
I thought about rooting OOS 12, but being honest, having root is not going to make the phone more stable or anything. I guess I'll do give it a try at OOS 12 in 3-6months after a couple of updates, maybe other versions are better.

I have the correct msm tool for device. This is the forward route for you. Takes you to 11.4. Stock A11
Does anyone else have the issue of their touchscreen not functioning when they install the A12 update? Ive tried installing twice and both times my screen would not register any touches only the volume and power buttons functioned?
EDIT: NVM I MSM'd back to stock and upgraded to OOS 12 before unlocking the bootloader.

if you are looking for performance, look into kernels and/or just use a kernel manager.
out of all the Roms I've tried (all but the latest havok release) crDroid is the best performance option I get from a ROM on O09. that piared with optional GApps and frequent OTA updates, its the best thing out so far. the OTA even works perfectly at retaining root without any user input. (but do a backup before reboot, its still technically a dirty flash so play safe)

I don't want to get too off-topic, but figured I'd save a MSM wipe to some people, I can confirm this works, but only using the latest version of Magisk (v24), temporary boot will not work with v23 (the last one with MagiskHide), it caused Qualcomm crashdump and no recovery or fastbootd.
If anyone looks into other root spoofing solutions with the newer version v24, from Magisk settings use Zygisk, select apps using Enforced Denylist, and Universal SafetyNet Fix, there is also Shamiko, which I haven't tested personally.
From my own experience, DenyList+Universal SafetyNet fix+Selinux Switch if you need to switch between permissive and enforced Selinux are enough. Apps won't get to know there is root, safetynet is passed, and selinux checks are passed (that one took me a long while to figure out)

Question [GSI] Touch stops working after locking screen

So, I have this error when I lock the screen, it stops touch from working even after 10-15 seconds on the Official Pixel Experience GSI A13 BvN (A127F U7), even with physwizz kernel (for U5 but works for U7 & U8). Do you have any other kernel, or a way to fix this?
Thanks,
TheWorld_YT
It's very interesting, damn it, I can't understand why either, so someone explained (who installed TWRP and GSI) how to install GSI images. I also want to install gsi pixel experience or lineage os, but I'm afraid I have one phone. Can you write down what it looks like? Thanks in advance.
It is basically the firmware on a Pixel, it is complicated to install but you'll get the hang of it after you first successfully install it, so the touch just stops working for five seconds after locking screen. And then it works fine again. Anyway, thanks for replying.
