GSI on MI10T ? - Xiaomi Mi 10T / 10T Pro Questions & Answers

Hello,
Has anyone tried installing a GSI rom on MI10T?
I'm interested in getting feedback and if it works for you.
Thanks

Tried and failed. Don't know what I did wrong and I'm pretty new to this stuff so don't have that much experience. I'm sure it's possible.

TWRP for this phone doesn't support installing GSI, I bricked my phone because of it

If you tried ab that's probably why you failed - ab has different partition layout than aonly which is this device... Somebody should try aonly gsi and check...

Can you install system gsi? Because there is only a super partition in TWRP.

When new TWRP 3.5.0 gets fixed it will work good because it supports dynamic partitions properly

Yes. If you do fastboot getvar all you won't get boot slot etc which is normal on a/b roms

You seem quite knowledgeable. Is there a chance you will make a gsi flashing guide later on ? Maybe trying out some ROMs like pixel experience or havoc

Which custom GSI ROM works well with the stock Android pie?

I've been using Pixel experience ROM without issues until I upgraded my phone to latest pie and went back to the custom ROM. However, the fingerprint is not working on Pixel Experience again.
Any help on a working GSI ROM will be appreciated. Thanks.
Good question

Hello,
I tried AEX, Arrow, Descendant and Havoc (On android Pie)
The screen border are good only on havoc and the fingerprint work.
Fingerprint doesn't work on AEX sure. I don't remember on Arrow and on Descendant.
Here a list of the GSI Rom:

Hello,
27/10/18 update, official download link,
https://sourceforge.net/projects/ha...0181027-GSI-ARM64-AB-Official.img.xz/download
This GSI is beautiful, there is a lot of possibility to customize with full darktheme. If you don't want to use the gapps you can, else you have to flash open gapps. Personally my two favorites gsi are Lineage OS and Havoc OS because Havoc is based on Lineage.
The Camera is the google camera, the same camera of the pixel experience rom.
If you have to install a gsi install havoc.
Pierre
The pixel experience fingerprint bug also happened to me. What i do is repeat the whole flashing by flashing stock 9.6.4.0 in edl and then flashing the gsi. Works well again. Btw im using havoc it has alot of customization and features but not so fluid

Thanks for the response. But have you tried the latest stock pie for mi a2 lite before going back to those custom ROMs. Downgrading from pie screw up the Sim 1slot. I don't know if you've noticed that.

Thanks brother. Do you mean to say Downgrading from Pie to Oreo (9.6.4.0) flashing in edl (and not fastboot) solves the fingerprint and sim1 bugs??

I tried what you said bro. From pie 10.0.2, I downgraded to 9.6.4.0 via edl flashing.
However, the Sim 1 slot does not work. I repeated same procedure flashing 9.6.9, same outcome.
Eventually I had to re-flash 10.0.2 to make the two Sims work.
Problem with flashing GSI ROM on 10.0.2 is that the fingerprint does not work. You cannot even do fingerprint registration.
In the end, I had to install the GSI (pixel experience) not minding a screwed fingerprint.
The ability to copy texts from recent apps is one cool feature of that ROM that I can't meet go

to fix sim cards you need doing some commands from PC when phone in TWRP mode:
adb shell
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p40
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p41
exit
100% works, confirmed

I'm using Havoc OS now. It's very good and comes with notch compatible(gapps)
Go to guides and news tab and you see there how to install gsi roms
Whichever GSI I've installed had major lags, which made it unusable for me. Especially when opening an app from recents. Stock is the most fluid, so I got stuck with it.

When you want to flash gapps dont download pico version it hasnt facelock and important things of google. download nano version
And also when you flash gapps it comes with notch compatible
If you lose your sim card signal, flash this img while on fastboot mode

before installing twrp or any modification, you have to unlock bootloader (this will erase your data but it's not important you will delete while flashing)

Yes i had lags like you and it is boring as f*ck
When i heard the 10.0.3.0 is released, i moved to that quickly

I hated the square UI on stock, so I rooted the phone with Magisk and installed Substratum. Now I'm using Pixel theme on play store it's free and awesome. No more boring colors and ugly square corners. [If you want to install a substratum theme, make sure it supports Pie, otherwise the device will bootloop ]

Development

I'm just curious why ROM development for this device is so limited. Most other OP devices have a very large and active amount of developers. What is different about the 7T?
This is not a bash, just curious.
Devs call the OnePlus 7T a "drama queen" due to some really weird bugs.
I'm really missing ROMs like "Resurrection Remix" and "Havoc OS". Literally just been using OOS even though on all my previous OnePlus devices I always had some custom ROM or the other as my daily driver.
The 7T has:
OmniROM
MSM Extended
AOSIP
Tresk
But there are issues with flashing and until they get TWRP working entirely (close, as a Chinese developer made great strides in decryption) there won't be a ton of ROMS for it, unfortunately. But I consider there to be enough to offer a good custom ROM experience, as there are a few really nice ones available.

Are these same issues not present on the OP7T PRO? It seems to have at least a few more ROMs.
what are the problems with flashing? you can also flash the custom roms that are available for the op7t by fastbootd (not fastboot) (or you can use the chinese twrp version that works for a custom rom to 99% (except fastbootd that is what the twrp wants, at least for me not working )

TWRP cannot mount system and therefor cannot flash the normal way. Have to use fastbootd and be very careful. That Chinese verison is interesting but it would be better to have an open source solution at hand.

Installing GSI's?

Hey guys,
As the title suggests, I'm looking for help in flashing GSI's(Generic System Images). I was looking through the Android developer website for Android 12 today and the 'Get a Generic System Image' tab caught my eye. I was wondering if any of you guys have experience in installing GSI's and could briefly outline the steps needed.
Here's the link of the Android 12 GSI if you're interested.
I guess I should post this is the general questions section but this is the device(Redmi Note 8) I can afford to experiment with at the moment so here I am.
Thanks in advance.

You need the fastboot rom from xiaomi.eu and adb platform tools...

I think One OS is based on Xiaomi.eu but with few added features and changes.
I tried it, and it's very similar to Xiaomi.eu. but I still use Xiaomi eu for faster updates and perhaps more stability(?).

For me One OS is better than xiaomi.eu. A little more costumization, better battery life. For other people is xiaomi.eu the better choice, but for me is one OS.
