Hello,
I have been looking for an answer to this for a while and can't find something.
Current state: Huawei Honor 6X with LineageOS 14.1 (Thanks to the user HassenMirza01 Forum Thread here) and Elite TWRP (Forum Thread here)
Aim: LineageOS 15.1
Problem:
1: There is a Forum Thread on cyanogemods.org talking about a development build. The given download link there is androidfilehost.com.
The problem is that I can't use that file for flashing the OS because there is just a system image called "system_a.img" in the zip-file, nothing else. As far as I know there has to be some more files and folders to be able to flash the OS. When I try to flash the zip with TWRP it says "Invalid zip file format".
2: I tried a different file given on getdroidtips.com, but the given download link ends up here sourceforge.net with an empty project.
My question: Is there a way I am not aware of to flash a single image file?
I just unlocked my bootloader and was able to flash a recovery, LR recovery to be exact. I currently use the stock miui android 11 and I'm not sure if I'll be able to flash roms like evolution, corvus and etc. I don't understand the vendor thing when flashing a custom rom, will you help me out on how to make things clear for me on what is a vendor and how to know if it's the right one for my phone. Thank you in advance.

IF this is the INDIAN poco x2, then your device model id is PHOENIXIN_in_global, so you cant install any custom roms here. If you can mod the id to PHOENIX then all the roms here are open for installation. However upon inspection of extracted fastboot versions (not recovery version) of Miui roms I've seen vendor files which are images, now if you can replace the vendor files from your desired rom with your model's specific vendor image files you can practically install any rom.
You'll have to extract the fastboot rom which is when you'll be able to see these files. And again just get platform tools and copy past all files from the rom to install by just clicking on flash_all.bat

Very Useful Information..
Thanks))
So practically every ROM has to be altered and installed only in Fastboot version?
And how about recovery version as Install Zip Files? do you recommend it>

Hey Could you please explain in detail how I can do this? I want to install a custom rom(Arrow OS) on my phone(miui 12.1.2) but I keep getting the following error when I try to do it using twrp:-
E1001 failed to update system image. ERROR 1
Failed to mount /system_root(invalid argument)
Failed to mount /product(no such directory)
I'm new to this and any help would be greatly appreciated.
PS: I get the same error for anything else I flash too.
I was forced to wipe my OnePlus 6 this morning and have opted for the latest 10.3.8 build. I'm happy rooting it without TWRP, so I can use Magisk but I can't find a patched 10.3.8 boot.img. Could someone point me towards a version oof this file? Many thanks.

Many thanks, that exactly the one I eventaully found, but thanks for letting me know. One or two more threads, to make it easier to find, won't hurt

you could have fastbooted twrp from fastboot temporarily and flashed magisk and rebooted system, that gives you magisk and doesn't install twrp. but do whatever suits you
@Thratchen
Enable usb debugging and developer options, set lock screen to none then from PC do below commands and flash magisk22.zip in TWRP recovery once booted TWRP and reboot system once it flashes. No need to flash patched boot.img.
Just: sudo adb reboot bootloader
Then: sudo fastboot boot TWRP_3.4.0-9-11.img
Rename magisk22.apk to magisk22.zip and flash magisk zip in TWRP , reboot system once done installing. Easy peasy!!

Hello
Can I install rom in my Xiaomi mi 10t without PC ? Bootloader is already unlocked and I have the rom on my device (internal storage) it's a pixel experience rom.
I tried for like 10 hours to do that through twrp and PC but my PC stuck on many issues so is there anyway to install this rom without PC ?
IMO it doesn't matter where you put the ROM on phone's internal storage space - of course preferredly into Android's user-data section - as long as you know where to find it in TWRP when you're flashing it.
