Hello everyone, I would like to know how to install android 12 on my pixel 4a since I am in custom bliss 11 rom and bootloader unlocked?
sorry for my bad english and thanks for help
If you want to go from a custom rom to stock, I think the only safe way is to get a factory image from Google and install that. It'll wipe everything so backup before.
thanks

Hey guys i have an issue,
i was running Pixel Experience 10 but on MIUI 10, i couldn't update the last one so i thought to get back to stock rom, update to miui 11 and then get back to my Pixel rom. I DID A F*CKING MISTAKE. I installed the Miui 11 Update through TWRP without restoring the stock miui 10 rom. It worked but i had lost my Pixel rom ( i have a backup), ok then i installed TWRP at the MIUI 11 because recovery mode got me at Xiaomi Recovery for some reason. Inside the TWRP i flashed Disabled forc Encryption, but it didnt flash the Magisk, i reboot to system and after 100 bootloops i tried to go back to recovery mode, it boot at TWRP but since then, the TOUCHSCREEN DOESN'T WORK.. I used xiaomi mi flash tool to return to stock rom, it did, locked the bootloader etc...the touchscreen still doesn't work though... I can connect a mouse with OTG Type-C and i can do anything you tell me in order to fix it.. i have already update to MIUI 11, unlock the bootloader, installed TWRP and have Root. Has anyone any idea or a solution to try?
Thanks everyone in advance.

Because your rom file isnt orginial i geuss try another one
Hi y'all. I recently got an X3 Pro and will be installing LineageOS on it. I'm just currently waiting out the 1 week period before the Mi Unlock app allows me to unlock the bootloader. I read through the official installation instructions a few times and one of the first things it says is to ensure the phone is already running its stock Android 12 ROM, which mine is. Further down where it says to factory reset in the custom recovery, it only mentions erasing the data and cache partitions. Does this mean I'm supposed to flash LOS over MIUI or is it safe to erase system first then clean install LOS? It would be much appreciated if anyone could shed some light on this. If it helps, I also intend to use OrangeFox recovery.
EDIT: I found out about Xiaomi firmware flashing while doing some more research for this. Please let me know if I've got this right. I think the reason the instructions say to be on the latest stock ROM and don't say to erase system is because MIUI has a set of closed-source low-level drivers that are available for download separately but cannot be included as part of a custom ROM. Dirty flashing LOS will keep these drivers intact while removing MIUI. If this is correct, then this should mean it's safe to erase system as long as I download the latest firmware file and flash it before the ROM so that the drivers are there when the ROM is installed. Am I right about all this?
Hi there,
I'm surprised that this was not asked before -- or more likely, I just don't understand how the search function works (no results).
I'm currently rooting my Pixel 3. Now that I finally decided to wipe and root, I'm wondering if I have not the option to install a Google stock image of Android 13 on my device.
I know the Pixel 3 is out of support and there is no official way to install Android 13. But can I flash it manually or something? (Really only interested in the stock images, I know there is LineageOS and such, but I don't want that.)
Cheers and thanks for any answers

There is an official way to install Android 12. See https://developers.google.com/android/images
You'll have to reroot afterwards.
Whoops, I meant Android 13. I'm already on 12 and thought it was 11.

There will never be an official Android 13 for the Pixel 3. There will likely be a LineageOS version next year.
That's what I mean. Can I unofficially install a the Android 13 stock image on my phone, when it is rooted?

I don't know what your definition of "stock image" is, but you can install an Android 13 version of LineageOS when it is available. Root is not needed to install a new ROM. The bootloader must be unlocked, but root is not necessary.

i was reading because i was thinking of the gsi vanilla. I thought maybe i could flash that on my pixel3 since google wouldnt update. I am only guessing however . I have flashed a gsi for a custom rom. Im not certain though. Any thoughts?

Sorry, I know nothing about gsi. I use LineageOS, and that works fine for me.
Hi guys,
How do i update the pixel experience rom from android 12 to 13? is it just flash it through recovery and adb sideload, or is there any necessary step i should do before flashing it? like updating the recovery maybe? Im using pixel experience custom recovery and my device is unroot, only bootloader is unlocked
Any answers would be appreciated, thanks!
Maybe ask in an appropriate thread, but you could try dirty flash, stock is flashed the same way.

Backup all data and dirty flash. If you get errors, clean flash is helpful
Since it's a jump from one Android version to another, it's better to clean flash. Although, a dirty flash should still be possible once you wipe OS.
There should be a new, updated recovery file to flash as well. Tbh, the jump from A12 to 13 is not as big as the previous upgrades, with not much gains.
