Hi folks,
this is in short how I installed the sailfishOS port on a oneplus 3. Read this post complete, before you try it by yourself, please. Do it at your own risk and only if you did understand everything.
You should know, howto unlock your oneplus 3, howto install custom ROMs via TWRP and howto use fastboot. It is only possible with unencrypted phones. You can fiind all of it in the referenced xda-developers threads.
You can use SailfishOS with MultiROM only as primary. Every other OS should be able to start as seconday, or you have to use the swap function from MultiROM.

I had a TWRP 3.1.2 and the LineageOS 14.1 (with Firmware 19Beta, read all in LineageOS 14.1 refernce) already installed on my oneplus 3. If you want to use SailfishOS and LineageOS with MultiROM on your oneplus 3 you should start with the LineageOS 14.1 installation.
1. Follow [1] and [4] to install the official LineageOS 14.1 and TWRP as recovery.
2. Start your LineageOS and make your basic config
3. Follow [2] to install MultiROM support and the TWRP MultiROM v3.0.3
4. Test your MultiROM installation and start your LineageOS
5. Reboot into recovery and copy your primary LineageOS to secondary
6. Follow [3] to install SailfishOS 2.1.3.7. You have allready a recovery installed and can use it to wipe System, Data, dalvik art and cache. Right after wiping you can flash the openBeta19 Firmware, lineageOS unofficial 14.1. and sailfishos ZIP files in one shot to primary.
7. Start sailfishOS the first time and make basic config. If you know its UI allready you can skip the tutorial (tap clockwise in the edges, begin at upper left).
8. Reboot and test to boot your (in step 5.) to secondary copied LineageOS
Enjoy!
Hey Guys,
As we all know, our Zenfone 2 has a slightly different method for installing Magisk. It is often confusing to install Magisk Properly and there is sheer lack of proper guides and support for the same for our device.
I was recently looking to install magisk in order to get banking apps to work on my device and also get the play store device status to "Certified".
My Device is as follows:
Device: Asus Zenfone 2 | ZE551ML | 4GB RAM | 32 GB ROM
ROM: Lineage 14.1 Last Official Build and January 2019 Gapps (from openGapps)
Xposed: NO
Any other root modifications: NO
Now, you might be wondering what is the need of this guide.
Firstly, there are no threads that point to the procedure for installing latest Magisk (i.e. 18 and 18.1) for our devices.
I found it depressing taht we only had threads for Magisk 16 and 17.1 and none after that.
Secondly, the method i am going to show you, will work on all future versions of magisk. All very easily.
Thus this eliminates the need for multiple magisk version threads.
I would like to request you guys to report as and when a newer magisk version is released to report whether the method still works. So that we know this is still useful.
So lets start with the procedure:
1. A clean ROM is recommended without any modifications. Else all the effort would go waste if the CTS Test fails eventually.
So, backup your important stuff, format system, data, cache partitions in TWRP and clean flash your ROM of choice along with Gapps
2. Download Magisk from the Official Thread linked Here.
3. Download VerifiedBootsigner v8 from Here. This is designed by the Legendary Chainfire , the brains behind the legendary SuperSU.
4. I would recommed you to finish the setup of your device. i,e, ROM + Gapps first.
Then Reboot into recovery and flash Magisk zip downloaded from the link above in step 2.
5. After flashing Magisk, flash the VerifiedBootSigner v8 downloaded from the link above in step 3.
6. After successful flashing, reboot your Device and open Magisk Manager from the drawer. and Check your safetynet status.
7. You will get 2 green tics.
SUCCESS!

Android 8 (Oreo)
1) install GSI rom (arm64 a-only)
2) install fixes https://sourceforge.net/projects/z18mini/files/for GSI/
Bugs: miracast, deep sleep
Android 9 and 10
1) install GSI rom (arm64 a-only) and restore system size (wipe - system - repair - resize file system)
2) install fixes https://sourceforge.net/projects/z18mini/files/for GSI/
3) disable dm verity in TWRP Advanced section
Bugs: same as on 8 and zoom does not work in the stock camera, use another app
If you have a problem with magisk disable dm verity via TWRP
The best option in my opinion: AICP(oreo) https://drive.google.com/drive/u/1/folders/1lIFj9fUaVn6a2Pe3tjuP3NkDKCi8CNJd.
More roms here https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development
could you please update what is bext gsi rom for z18 mini ( pie)
I can't seem to make 9 or 10 work, I used this for dm-verity, the phone never boots.
Oreo works.

WARNING
Before you root your device you must be aware that
This will void warranty.
As of now you will lose Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass forever if you root once, even unrooting won't help.
There are many features stop working when you unlock bootloader other than S pay/Pass like Samsung Health, Secure Folder, Galaxy Watch pairing issue, Issue connecting old gear watch (S3 or earlier), Google Pay etc but ROM is patched for all these mentioned features. Still you may trouble using some bank apps and these may fixed by adding these apps to Magisk Hide
There may be some knox features there which you may not able to use but I can't list those as I never used. Just Google It
Patched featurs are working today when writing this, No idea if it may stop working next moment/tomorrow or later
Also to note, once you root, you can't go back to "pre-rooted" state completely. It is one way!
OTA won't work once you root device.
ROOT with caution.
You can unroot & Relock bootloader after flashing stock firmware, but still your warranty flag remain 0x1 and most of countries it still voids warranty. Also after unrooting & relocking bootloader, some knox features never work again.
ROM Tool permission : Files & media - To save and read files, Calendar - Tool needs some time monitoring to avoid using RT immediately after reboot. Special access for accessibility service - Since Android 12 it requires for QS panel custom Toggl e.g. Reboot to recovery

Proud to be the first worldwide to have a Custom ROM, FULL ROOT, Adblock etc on a S22 Ultra Exynos
Community LOVE for you!! ♥♥♥♥♥
EDIT: HERE IS THE GUIDE TO USE FOR EXYNOS (still testing)
Ok, so basically find and download the firmware (S908BXXU1AVC6 for EU - or ask me for the File..) to the phone eather with the Phone itself or trought USB-Cable, install magisk.apk from here, unpack the zip file from Firmware and patch the ap file via magisk, get the files to the pc and use odin to flash the patched Firmware.
of course unlock bootloader before and go to download mode.
Here is how to do that:

You can try on exynos (only module, no root files). If it doesn't work then maximum you needs is to factory reset.
In that case I may consider to make separate rom

I think its much better to make separate only for Exnos variant? So that files for SD will not be included, correct me if I'm wrong about that. Also been using your ROM since my Note 9.

Automated GSI flashing tool for Redmi Note 11 (spes)
I WON'T GIVE SUPPORT TO THOSE WHO FACE ISSUES BY NOT READING THE STEPS BELOW CAREFULLY!
I will get right into the topic here, find the answers to your questions below at near the end.
What this tool does:
1. Flash a GSI to your Dynamic partitioned Note 11
2. Patch your Vbmeta
3. Patch Product for magisk flashing
How to use this tool:
0. Flash a rom (stock rom, MIUI EU, AOSP, ...) - IMPORTANT
1. Download your GSI and the tool, extract them
2. Copy your GSI image to the tool's folder, rename the GSI to system.img if you are using Windows
3. Boot your phone to fastboot mode and plug it in
4. Run the "windows.bat" or "macos.sh" script based on your os
5. Wait until the process finishes, your phone will automatically reboot
Download: See attached file
Extras:
A ROM collection Telegram channel of mine, you can see screenshots of GSIs I booted on Note 11 by searching it there
The original post on Telegram
Credit:
kusti420 for Product file
AnhNotAnh (me) for the tool ofc
Main Q&A:
Q: What is a Generic System Image, GSI?
A: A GSI is a prebuilt system image that can be booted on devices that support Project Treble. In short, this System Image is a custom ROM but it uses your Vendor, Kernel from your previous/stock ROM.
Q: Okay, but why I would like to flash it on my Redmi Note 11?
A: As we have already known, MIUI does not perform exactly well in the recent years, especially on such a low end and underpowered phone. GSI helps us getting a taste of AOSP's cleanliness and smoothness before the developers finish making actual custom ROMs. This is a temporary solution, good enough to use, please don't think or complain if your GSI perform badly, since it is not a ROM or trying to be one either.
Q: Why do we need a dedicated tool and such time wasting thing to do? Can't you just flash it in a custom recovery?
A; From Android 10, devices with it come equipped with a new partition scheme, as known as Dynamic Partition. It helps speeding up OTA updates and make the partitions more flexible in size. But also creates a huge difficulty in flashing those GSI, that is why you cannot flash the image in a custom recovery.
Q: My terminal window freezes at a certain progress for too long! What should I do?
A: This case often happens with Windows users. Everything is quite complicated BTS, but the workaround is just spamming Enter key several times every minute or two.
Q: What if I want to install a GSI on top of another one? I already flashed one, do I need to restore my MIUI or AOSP rom to flash GSI?
A: It is not necessary, you can flash a new GSI on top. The tool will clear your previous GSI without erasing required stuff from ROM.
Q: My GSI does not boot, what should I do??
A: I highly suggest using GSIs based on Phh's work. Those are often called Phh GSIs. Secondly I would highly suggest against using "Ported GSIs", those are often based on Erfan or Xiaoxindada's GSI tool, they are a port from a different device's ROM instead of directly built from source like Phh. Here is a list of GSIs based on the man himself, Phh.
Q: Bro my phone just boot to TWRP and nothing happens, computer still waits for my device??
A: Like I said before, you can try spamming Enter key. It is also likely that your TWRP does not support Fastbootd (Fastboot Dynamic) environment, an easy workaround for this is using MIUI's boot (kernel) image, stock Fastbootd mode will be used.
Q: Which Android version can I flash??
A: You can flash corresponding or NEWER Android version GSI with the ROM you are coming from/installing GSI on top, you cannot flash a lower version one. For example, you can flash Android 11, 12, 12.1, 13, bla bla GSIs when coming from stock Android 11 MIUI ROM (Android 11 Vendor for people who understands)
Q: Can I use this tool on another device?
A: Yes, with proper bringup and changes in the tool for it to compatible with your device and it will work. But I will not be responsible for bricks, which I always won't xD
More questions and answers will be updated later.
